fox : am i crazy , or did i just see a dark - haired rebecca getting into the elevator with a whip ? julian : you 're not , and she did . fox : i thought you guys were done . julian : well , a man is never done with a woman like rebecca . you see , her mind is in the gutter , and you will find that sometimes playing in the gutter is a marvelous way to relieve tension . god willing , you 'll find yourself a plaything just as inventive one day . fox : no thank you , father . kay is all the woman that i need . julian : so the wedding 's on ? fox : oh , absolutely . and you 'll be pleased to know , just to make sure , i took your advice and killed miguel 's modeling career . he 's nothing but a penniless deckhand once again . [ scene_break ] miguel : no more modeling , no more money . i ca n't believe no one will hire me anymore . just my luck . mama 's right . why would kay want to be with me when she can be with fox , who has plenty of money and a wonderful career ? i 'm nothing but a day laborer on a fishing boat . [ rock splashes ] [ scene_break ] kay : pilar , it 's not like you to be so negative . pilar : kay , listen , please do n't marry fox . anyone who marries a crane finds nothing but misery . kay : yeah , well , fox is n't like the rest of them . pilar : they are selfish , and they 're greedy and they 're -- kay : not sheridan , not fancy . fox has always put me first from day one . he did n't abandon me to go look for another woman . that was miguel . pilar : he regrets that . kay : yeah , so he says . and i ca n't believe you 're saying all this stuff . fox has been here helping me raise your granddaughter . how -- how can you say these things ? he fell in love with me when i was a college dropout . i was working at that , ugh , that cannery . he 's a good man , and i love him and i 'm gon na marry him . pilar : it 's a mistake . look , it 's not fox 's fault that he was born a crane . maybe it 's genetic , maybe there 's a curse on the whole family -- i do n't know . but sooner or later , trust me , he will become just like his father and his grandfather . and he will break your heart , kay . and he will break maria 's heart , too . [ scene_break ] ethan : that cop said he saw theresa headed this way and she 's nowhere to be found . and what would be so damn important that she would cancel our meeting about little ethan 's custody and just rush down here ? something 's wrong . [ scene_break ] theresa : come on , j.t . , come on out . it 's theresa . i know you 're here somewhere . j.t . : beautiful day , mrs. crane . i just knew we would meet again . theresa : why did you call me on my cell phone ? do n't you know that anyone could be listening in ? j.t . : well , that 's me , living dangerously . theresa : all right , what are you doing back in harmony , huh ? you should n't be in this country , let alone new england . now , you -- you need to get out of town right now . j.t . : funny thing . in rome , you chased me all around town trying to get me to stay and talk to ethan on your behalf . now you want to get rid of me ? why ? what are you up to ? [ scene_break ] ivy : sam , what are you doing home ? honey , what is it ? sam : i was at the office . and suddenly i -- there 's not much point in being a cop if you 're absolutely powerless . ivy : ok , what happened ? sam : i should 've told you last night . i was out with paloma and noah and i saw spike with jessica . and she was selling herself again . ivy : oh , sam . sam : to more than one man at a time . ivy : oh -- oh no . sam : ivy , it 's breaking my heart . i -- i do n't know what to do anymore . [ scene_break ] examiner : cover it up . luis : sheridan , what happened here ? fancy : my god , are you ok ? sheridan : i do n't know . i -- i went up to the mansion to bring james his art supplies . phyllis was here cleaning like she does every day . when i came back , i -- i found her lying on the floor . i -- i thought she was unconscious . so i -- i checked for a pulse , and when i could n't find one , i called 911 and then you . i ca n't believe this . i -- i 've known her for years , and now she 's dead . luis : what have we got ? examiner : as best as i can tell with her , she 's been dead less than an hour . the body temperature just dropped . luis : have you determined the cause of death yet ? examiner : strangulation , which caused asphyxiation . examiner : see these bruises around the throat ? great force was used . at a guess , i 'd say the assailant was male . luis : what 's that ? examiner : john . examiner : scrap of paper with ink smudge . we 'll check it under the microscope , see if it 's anything . luis : she put up a fight ? examiner : no -- no sign of defensive struggle . luis : sounds like she was surprised by someone she knew . examiner : hmm . luis : someone she was used to seeing around here . fancy : someone she thought was safe . luis : so the chances are , you know the murderer , too . where 's chris ? sheridan : why ? what difference does it make where chris is ? luis : sheridan , i need to talk to chris right away . sheridan : chris would n't know anything about this . he was working in the garden that i planted with james while phyllis was working here in the cottage , all right ? there is no way that chris could 've seen or heard anything . luis : well , fine . but maybe he saw something or someone that could help identify the killer . sheridan : look , the garden is a good walk from here . i 'm telling you , there is no way that chris could 've heard or seen anything . and if he did , he would 've helped phyllis . there is no way that chris is a suspect . luis : sheridan , come on , you are not that naive , ok ? chris was in close proximity to phyllis when she died . she knew him . he is a male , and he is strong . in fact , he is a perfect match to the medical examiner 's killer . sheridan : chris knows nothing about this . luis : ok . well , then by any chance , did you happen to see someone else this morning ? another male on the grounds who knows phyllis ? sheridan : no , i mean , there are -- are gardeners , there are staff members . there are -- there are dozens of people who come around here . luis : we 'll see . so , where is this garden because i need to question chris right away . chris : why ? what 's going on in here ? [ scene_break ] ivy : look at me . you know you ca n't wallow in self - pity . you just have to accept the hard things in life and -- and make the best of them . in the meantime , just try to enjoy the positive things in your life . we will help jessica . we will . we 'll find a way . in the meantime , you have a lot to be grateful for . sam : oh , like what ? ivy : like us . sam : i 'm sorry . i did n't mean it the way it came out . ivy : i know . i love you , sam , and you love me . and it is just -- it 's a miracle that after all this time , we are finally together . and we have a wedding coming up . sam : yeah . i ca n't wait to walk kay down the aisle . ivy : well , that 's not the wedding i 'm talking about . i was sort of talking about ours . sam : oh , i 'm sorry . how could i forget ? look , i would love to make you my bride . ivy : well , that 's one way to make you happy . sam : what ? ivy : let 's do it right away . why wait ? let 's get married . sam : you know what ? you 're right . why not ? [ ivy and sam sigh ] [ scene_break ] ethan : damn it , theresa . come on , where did you go ? you could n't have gotten far . and why did you cancel our meeting about little ethan 's custody ? you could n't wait to do battle with julian . this just is n't like you at all . [ scene_break ] theresa : i am not up to anything . you need to get out of town . j.t . : oh , come on . i would think a person in your position of power would be a better liar . theresa : you do n't even know what you 're talking about , j.t . j.t . : i know that you chased me around rome and you offered me $ 10 million to tell ethan who e - mailed `` daily private lives `` that he was n't a crane . theresa : well , that was then . j.t . : so what 's changed ? why the big turnaround , huh ? theresa : i 'm not going to talk to you -- j.t . : you could 've forced my hand at that hotel . theresa : i 'm not going to talk to you about anything . j.t . : you do n't want to talk to me ; i know . and you do n't want me to meet up with ethan . why ? theresa : you 're delusional . j.t . : could this have something to do with that other information i gave you ? theresa : ok , shh . j.t . : the other information being your son being ethan winthrop 's child and not julian crane 's . theresa : all right , j.t . , i said shut up ! j.t . : bingo . now i 'm curious . why do n't you want ethan to know this information ? do n't you love him ? my god , it 's been in the tabloids for years . you 'd do anything to get the guy back . if he found out that his wife betrayed him , he would leave her , and if you could reveal that you guys have a son together , you 'd snag him back for sure . theresa : you just do n't get it . yeah , ethan would want to spend time with his son . but i do n't know for sure if he would actually leave gwen to be with me . they stole my daughter from me , j.t . i refuse to let them have my son . [ scene_break ] julian : i must say , well done , fox . the only thing better than advancing oneself is to do it at the expense of others . you 've done all of us a favor by ending miguel 's modeling career . now i do n't have to see that blue - collar mug every time i open up a magazine . fox : you know , the -- the new offer for his services i refused on his behalf was -- was very lucrative . julian : well , what he does n't know wo n't hurt him . i must say i believe i misjudged you . you 're turning out to be more of a chip off the old block than i thought . fox : oh really , which block would that be ? you seem to be changing your personality every week . julian : that 's my prerogative . but you are a crane , fox . i 'm very proud of you . [ scene_break ] miguel : maybe i can pick up some more shifts on the boat to make up for the modeling income . yeah , like that 's going to happen . and even if it did , i 'd never get to see kay and maria . god , what the hell am i going to do to make more money ? ethan : miguel , hey , why the long face , man ? miguel : i 'm all right . what are you doing here ? should n't you be practicing to be in the supreme court or something ? ethan : no , i 'm -- i 'm actually looking for your sister . you see , we were supposed to have a meeting today about little ethan 's custody and she just cancelled it last - minute . and she ran out of the building . miguel : that 's weird . ethan : yeah , it is . look , have you -- have you seen her around here anywhere ? miguel : sorry , man . ethan : all right , i guess i 'll keep looking . i 'll see you . miguel : good luck . miguel : i 'm going to have to work out a custody arrangement for maria if kay marries fox . god , i hate this . i hate this . i do n't want to be a part - time father . i want to be there for kay and maria all the time . [ scene_break ] pilar : well , perhaps now . but i have experience with the crane men . not one of them , kay , not one of them has ever developed into a happy , stable human being . alistair was a devil . cruel , inhuman , insufferable until the day he died with beth and marty . and julian was just as bad . we all thought he 'd reformed and -- and then once eve left him , he was back to being old julian again . kay : but trust me , fox is different . pilar : i doubt it . fox wo n't fall far from the tree . before long , he will turn into his father and his grandfather . he will become mean and greedy and -- and even sadistic . kay : pilar . pilar : no , and there you will be , kay , another one of the miserable crane wives , like ivy and rachel and katherine , all of them . unhappy until the day they left the cranes . and they were all scarred because of their experiences . is that how you want to wind up ? kay : you 're just saying this because you want me to marry miguel . pilar : no , mija . i mean , it 's true , i would be very happy if i saw you marry miguel . but i would warn you against marrying a crane , no matter what . kay : god , i 'm so confused . i -- i do n't know what to do . pilar : it 's simple . very simple . you leave fox , and you go back to miguel -- the man you know you belong with , the man that 's in your heart , the man you 've loved your whole life . follow your heart , kay , before it 's too late . [ scene_break ] j.t . : how did a cute little thing like you become so pessimistic ? do n't you think the revelation that you guys have a child together would make him leave gwen ? theresa : well , j.t . , yeah , you know , one would think . but gwen and rebecca , they always manage to poison ethan 's mind against me . j.t . : oh , good point . rebecca can talk a man into anything . theresa : she and gwen convinced ethan that i was an unfit mother . so ethan helped them take my daughter from me . what if the same thing happens with little ethan ? j.t . : i ca n't see ethan taking your child . i mean , he is a bit of a sap . but he does seem to be the proverbial straight arrow . theresa : gwen can convince ethan of anything , j.t . i would never see my son . they 'd go after full custody . and at the end of the day , the only thing that is worth fighting for is little ethan . and i 'm not gon na lose him . no matter what the cost . [ scene_break ] sam : hey , honey . hey , pilar . pilar : good morning , sam . ivy : oh , look who 's here . the blushing bride . kay : this was on the front porch . it 's addressed to you . ivy : what are you two doing here ? pilar : well , we were going over options for the wedding . ivy : well , there 's plenty of time for that . pilar : what ? ivy : what is it , sam ? sam : it 's postmarked from florence , italy . must be from grace . [ scene_break ] luis : do n't cross the tape . chris : what is going on in here ? who is that under there ? sheridan : chris , it 's phyllis . she 's dead . luis : murdered . chris : oh , my god . i -- i was just talking to her a few minutes ago . luis : were you ? sheridan : so was i . this is insane . i was just up at the mansion seeing james and when i came back , i found her on the floor . i thought she was unconscious . so i checked for a pulse and when i could n't find one , i called 911 . chris : what happened to her ? luis : well , actually , i was hoping that you could tell us that . chris : now what kind of a question is that ? god , poor phyllis . sheridan : how dare you , luis ? luis : how dare i ? i 'm a cop , sheridan , and from what i 've heard , chris is the last person to have seen phyllis alive . chris : well , how exactly was phyllis murdered ? luis : she was strangled . chris : oh , god . luis : do you mind explaining to me , then , how you got these cuts on your hand ? [ scene_break ] julian : so miguel 's modeling career has come to an untimely end . how did you do it ? fox : well , actually , it was quite easy . the client sent me an offer to the office requesting miguel 's exclusive services in a worldwide campaign . i called the client back and told them that miguel had retired from modeling forever . julian : well done . fox : by coincidence , miguel came by the office to ask me for more work . as a model , i said that he was overexposed and he should give it up completely . i was very convincing . i could n't help myself . i actually shredded the offer , right under miguel 's nose . julian : oh , shred , oh , my god . grandfather would be loving that . fox : if you think i 'd take that as a compliment , you are mistaken . julian : listen , i recall the last time we spoke , you said that you trusted kay absolutely . you knew for certain that she would never hurt you . if you believe that , why did you sabotage miguel 's career ? fox : listen , kay does love me , and i love her . but i 'll admit , miguel gets on my nerves . i mean , he 's always around . we ca n't get away from him . he 's constantly trying to spend more time with kay and maria . julian : well , he is the child 's father . fox : biologically , maybe . but i 'm more of a father to maria than he is . but sure enough , any time kay gets upset over the smallest little thing , here comes miguel running in by her side trying to comfort her . maybe now that his modeling career is done , he 'll have to be on the boat 24/7 . it 's better to be safe than sorry . julian : amen to that , my son . i let my guard down . you know what happened . t.c . wormed his way back into eve 's life . and now she is back with him . you 're right to cut miguel off . or perhaps you could even do better than that . perhaps you could eliminate him from the picture completely . fox : well , i 'll try . even though i do trust kay completely , i -- i do n't want miguel hanging around all the time . i mean , why put temptation in kay 's path if i can avoid it ? julian : wow , you are certainly becoming more and more worthy of the crane name each and every day . [ scene_break ] kay : well , open it , dad . see what mom sent you . sam : ok . ivy : nice . sam : `` dear sam , i saw this frame in a little antique store on the banks of the arno and thought of you . best wishes on your upcoming marriage . love , grace . `` ivy : how thoughtful of grace to send a silver - plated frame . pilar : now , let me see . no , this is sterling . it must have been very expensive . ivy : well , looks can be deceiving . what fun for grace to have the luxury to just be able to rummage through second - hand stores . kay : she said it was from an antique store . ivy : well , they 're basically the same thing , are n't they ? is n't this karma ? we were just discussing having our wedding almost immediately . { ivy : no , kay , you can not tell sam that i hired david to break up his marriage to grace . kay : he deserves to know the truth before he marries you . ivy : kay , you 're -- you 're not thinking clearly here . } [ scene_break ] j.t . : you know , i have got to give you a lot more credit , mrs. crane . you are as devious as your pals gwen and rebecca . theresa : now why would you say something like that ? j.t . : because when a woman like you turns a 180 like this , something is up . but who am i ? who am i ? i 'll just let the tabloid work the whole mess out . theresa : no , no , no . no , you wo n't . j.t . : oh , please , do you know how much money this information is worth ? your name sells a lot of papers , my dear . think about it . sex , love , money . and you know what they say ? money makes the world go ' round . theresa : love makes the world go ' round . j.t . : well , depends on who you ask . i 'm in the money camp myself . theresa : what is with you ? why are you so obsessed with money ? because you know what ? it does n't bring you one minute of happiness . j.t . : not having it does n't make you jump for joy either . now let 's think about this . why do n't you tell ethan ? if you tell ethan winthrop that little ethan is his son , word will get out that he is not a crane . little ethan will lose his inheritance . i may be slow , but i get there eventually . and you , i think , have a taste of the good life , do n't you ? and you do n't want to give it up . theresa : you do n't know me . j.t . : well , i know this . i remember seeing the papers when old man crane 's will came out . and little ethan is set to inherit billions , with a `` b. `` and you want to make sure you see him as lord of the manor . theresa : all right , j.t . , you really need to keep your mouth shut . j.t . : no , no , no , no skin off my nose . you do n't have to explain a thing . but one more thing . if the whole town knows what 's in the will , why does n't ethan think it 's strange that you 've named him little ethan 's trustee in case you kick the bucket ? theresa : now why would ethan think that that was strange ? he 's always been a part of little ethan 's life . he 's his godfather and i trust ethan to do amazing things with crane industries the same way i would . j.t . : ok , if you say so . speaking of doing amazing things with -- theresa : wondered how long it would take you . j.t . : well , i.r.s . problems , remember ? i need big money to disappear . in fact , if i get enough money , i might just leave harmony permanently . j.t . : oh no , are you kidding ? i ca n't take a check . it 's cash . all cash . theresa : no , i do n't -- i do n't carry large amounts of cash on hand , j.t . j.t . : well , then , let 's get to the bank and you take out a couple of mil . and then we 'll meet later on . theresa : no , no , no . i need you out of here right now . what do you want ? ethan : theresa ? theresa : oh , my god . go , go , go , go . go quickly , please . j.t . : we 're not done yet , my dear . remember that . theresa : oh , i 'll remember . ethan : were you just talking to j.t . cornell ? ethan : hmm ? i -- i ca n't hear you . was that -- was that j.t . cornell that was just running away ? theresa : what -- j.t . ? are you -- what -- no . of course not . i was just -- i was meeting somebody . gosh . ethan : who ? theresa : well -- ethan : who ? theresa : that 's none of your business . ethan : oh , come on , damn it , theresa . why did you cancel our meeting that we had with julian about little ethan 's custody ? theresa : i 'm sorry about that , ok ? i -- this meeting was extremely important . ethan : oh . well , what -- what kinds of important meetings do you -- do you have in alleys ? theresa : well , you know how the business world is , ethan . sometimes if you want information from people , you kind of just have to meet them on the sly . ethan : uh - huh . i 'm sorry , i 'm -- i 'm just having a problem believing that you of all people would , you know , cancel a meeting about your son 's welfare in order to dabble in corporate espionage , theresa . theresa : nothing is more important to me , ethan , than both of my children . now , in order to protect them , sometimes there are certain things that i have to take care of . ethan : see -- see , you 're -- you 're talking out both sides of your mouth , theresa , and i 'm -- i 've had it . so tell me what the hell is going on here . you 're canceling meetings , disappearing , acting strange . what is your big secret ?

[ laura remembers ] laura : no , nikolas did n't have someone shot . elizabeth : laura , i do n't -- i do n't want to believe this is true , but it all adds up . i think nikolas was behind the shooting . and this is why the truth about jason can never come out . laura : you know , i need some time to get used to all of this , and , um , i do n't think i 'm gon na be able to do that here . nikolas : w - what does that mean ? laura : i ca n't look monica and sam in the eye , knowing that i 'm keeping a son and a husband away from his own family . nikolas : okay . but you -- you agreed that this is what we would do , so -- laura : yeah , which is why i 'm gon na just go out of town for a little while . nikolas : okay . so where would you go ? laura : i think i 'll probably go visit lucky . i have a feeling that this is weighing pretty heavy on his soul , too . nikolas : i understand that , i - i guess . but you 'll be back , right ? laura : when i have figured out how to live with this the way you two have , yes . nikolas : okay . laura : i love you , nikolas . nikolas : i love you , too . [ scene_break ] hayden : this does n't make sense . how can you not know your real name ? jason : look [ clears throat ] it does n't matter . you know what ? you just woke up . you need some time to figure things out . you need some sleep . hayden : how do i know you if you 're not my husband ? sam : i - i have a few ideas , starting with the fact that you did nothing but lie . jason : okay . patrick : okay , that 's enough . sam , jake , you 're gon na have to leave . hayden needs some rest . sam , please . jason : uh ... all right , so you do n't believe her . sam : why do you ? jason : i do n't know . because i know what it 's like to wake up in the hospital without knowing why you got there . sam : are you kidding me ? there is a huge difference between you and hayden . jason : you 're right . you 're absolutely right . i did n't get shot in the head . sam : i know you feel guilty , but that does n't make you obligated to accept what she 's saying at face value . you blame yourself , so you are probably too close to this situation to think clearly , but i 'm not , and i am telling you , based on her prior behavior , there is an excellent chance that she 's faking .

ciara : you said something to my mom , did n't you ? aiden : about what ? ciara : the earrings that my cousin bought me . now she 's making me give them away . will : look , i know gabi and sonny and i ca n't all live with arianna forever . but if we were n't living together now ... i mean , this is such an important time . marlena : what i can tell you about parenting is there is no unimportant time . will : [ chuckles ] yeah . i 'm beginning to see that . you know , i look at my life ... and maybe mom and dad were n't together . but i always knew how much they cared about me ... every minute of every day . i want arianna to feel that way for me . i will never let anyone or anything come between me and my little girl . gabi : okay , so you 're happy that will and sonny are getting married ? nick : yeah . yeah . what ? you -- you seem surprised . gabi : well , you -- you did n't used to feel this way . nick : well , you know , i was messed up because of -- of what happened to me in prison , but i 'm ... past that now . you know what i mean ? if -- if sonny and will want to get married , i 'm -- i 'm glad they can . gabi : yeah , me too . nick : then why do n't you look very happy ? gabi : well , i mean , they just seem to think that everything 's gon na stay the same around here . nick : and you do n't ? gabi : people get married so that they can live alone together . i mean , that 's what i wanted . nick : yeah . i remember . but you and will have a little girl now , and that -- and that makes things different . and i 'm sure sonny and will have thought this all through . do n't you think ? kate : i know that , uh , you 're aware that i felt guilty and responsible for what happened to rafe . and , um , of course , you know that we were involved before the attack , and now we 're not ... because we both knew that what we had was based on living in the moment and no expectations for the future , but even that was too much for my ex - husband . rafe almost paid with his life for that . so , anyway , i hope that you understand that i still feel protective towards rafe . jordan : yeah , i - i guess i do . kate : good . anyway , i have one more thing that i 'd like to ask you to do for me . jordan : and what 's that ? kate : i want you to promise to never , ever hurt him . jordan : well , that 's not a problem . all i want to do now is make rafe happy . kate : good ... because if you do n't , i 'll -- rafe : you 'll what ? hmm ? what 'll you do ? sonny : all right , ben , well , it was very nice meeting you . just go ahead and fill out your application , list your experience , and you can leave it at the bar , and i will give you a call one way or the other . ben : congratulations again on the engagement . sonny : thank you . kate : i was going to say that i would be very disappointed if you were unhappy because you deserve the very best . rafe : oh . well , thank you . so do you . kate : thank you . jordan : so how is mrs. brady ? rafe : great . god , i wish i had her energy . kate : [ chuckles ] rafe : [ chuckles ] jordan : well , i think you 're doing just fine . all right , um , i said i would wait for you to get out , but i really have to get going , so ... rafe : oh , okay . jordan : okay . rafe : i 'll see you later ? jordan : you bet . mm . kate , it was good to see you again . kate : oh , it 's so good seeing you too . bye . [ chuckles ] rafe : [ chuckles ] well ... you and jordan seemed to be having a rather serious conversation . kate : well , actually , i was doing all the talking . rafe : oh . about what ? kate : well , you heard some of it . i was telling jordan that i hope she makes you happy . rafe : mm . it seemed kind of like a warning to me . kate : because that 's exactly what it was . rafe : oh . kate : mm - hmm . rafe : [ chuckles ] aiden : [ sighs ] hi . hope : you 're back . aiden : yeah , i had to take care of something for a client . [ sighs ] i think i owe you an apology . hope : you think ? aiden : my rant about the earrings ... it 's none of my business . hope : [ clears throat ] i agree . aiden : so i ran into ciara in the square . she let me know what she thinks of me . hope : i 'm sure she did . aiden : mm . hope : she 's a pretty unhappy little girl these days . aiden : yeah . and she also told me that , uh , you were not the one who bought her those earrings , so ... i apologize for jumping to the wrong conclusion . hope : and while you 're at it , how about apologizing for not allowing me to explain before you rushed to judgment ? aiden : okay , i admit i was a jackass . but believe me -- i understand how hard it is to raise a child in this crazy world . hope : apology accepted . will : did i tell you arianna wo n't let me feed her with a spoon anymore ? marlena : no , no , she wants to hold it herself ? will : yeah , let me tell you something . she sucks at it . [ both laugh ] will : but she does n't care . and -- and i 'm thinking to myself , `` if she 's like this now , what 's she gon na be like when she 's 14 ? `` marlena : oh , my gosh . you know what ? the only way to make sure that she makes good decisions , lives her best life , is to make a perfect example in your own life . honey , i 'm so pleased about you and sonny . and you know what else ? you and gabi -- you 'll work this thing out . will : thanks . i should get going . [ clears throat ] marlena : oh . both : mm . marlena : [ chuckles ] will : [ sighs ] i know that i have to live my own life ... but knowing and doing are two very different things . i still want to do everything for arianna . marlena : and she 's telling you that she wo n't always let you . and it 's perfectly fine for you to want to . will : [ chuckles ] marlena : go . nick : i got to tell you . i think this baby likes me . gabi : [ chuckles ] i do too . [ cell phone rings ] gabi : oh . nick : is that right , ari ? gabi : [ sighs ] hello ? oh , hey , t. what 's up ? tad : i 'm sorry . i 'm not gon na be able to take you to that concert after all . gabi : oh , uh , really ? why not ? tad : uh , the tickets that i thought i had , uh , fell through . gabi : well , uh -- well , you ca n't help that , so , uh ... maybe another time . tad : um , yeah , i got to go . the club 's getting crowded . nick : is everything okay ? gabi : oh , yeah . it 's no big deal . t , uh -- t just said he could n't get tickets to the concert -- that 's all . nick : what ? florence welch is gon na be on that stage . you love her . gabi : i know . it 's okay , though . i mean , there 's nothing i can do about it . he just ca n't get the tickets . nick : you know what ? [ sighs ] now that i 'm working for kate again at mad world , i feel like she might be able to get us a couple . gabi : you really think so ? nick : i do n't know . what do you think ? aiden : okay , well , uh , i 'm glad we talked . hope : yeah , yeah , me too . aiden : okay . [ sighs ] well , you know , maybe me shooting my mouth off was a -- was a good thing . hope : how do you figure that ? aiden : well , it did get you to rethink letting ciara keep all that stuff , so ... hope : oh , hold on a second . i just want to make something clear right now , okay ? your interference had nothing to do with my decision . aiden : uh , i do n't know if you remember , but when i walked in here , ciara was telling you how great you were for letting her keep all that stuff , so maybe -- hope : do you have any idea ... how sick and tired i am of your smug , self- righteous judgments about my daughter and me ? because the only time you were right -- correct about anything today is when you said the situation was none of your business ... because it damn well is n't . aiden : oh . yeah . sonny : oh . will : hey . sonny : hey . so how 'd your grandmother take the news ? will : she 's very happy for us . you know , you are gon na have to start calling her grandma too . sonny : that is not gon na happen . will : you know , i 'm glad i confided in her about you proposing , because she was the one that convinced me i wanted to do it . sonny : i knew i liked her . will : [ laughs ] i just wish your mom was as enthusiastic . sonny : i know . but she wants us to wait , and i guess she 's entitled to her own opinion . will : but you 're not having second thoughts , right ? sonny : do i look like i 'm having second thoughts ? i feel like the luckiest man in the world . mm . will : all right , well , i should get going . i promised my great - grandmother that i would take her to quilting group . sonny : you 're such a good boy . will : ah , stop . see you later . sonny : okay , get out of here . tad : hey . congratulations . will : thanks , t . tad : yeah . [ sighs ] so you know i 'm really psyched about you and will , right ? sonny : of course . tad : so i have something to say . do n't let nick fallon screw everything up for you . nick : [ laughs ] huh ? so , if -- if i can get us tickets , are -- are we on for the concert ? what ? gabi : well , maybe it 's not such a good idea for us to go out . nick : what , because of -- because of will and sonny ? gabi : well , i - i just think that they wo n't see how understanding and forgiving that you 've been to me . nick : hey , honestly , i 'm the one who needs to be forgiven for -- for what i did to you , so ... i get where they 're coming from on that , and , you know , now that they 're gon na be married , sonny 's kind of gon na be like ari 's stepfather , you know ? so they 're probably just ... you know , feeling protective of her . you know what i mean ? hey , here 's your mommy . gabi : hey . nick : anyway , i 'll let you finish your homework . gabi : thanks . thanks for bringing my notebook back . nick : yeah , no problem . no problem . i 'll , uh ... i will talk to you soon . all right ? gabi : say `` bye . `` nick : bye . bye , baby . bye , ari . bye . gabi : [ sighs ] i do n't care what will and sonny want . mommy is not gon na lose you ... no matter what . rafe : you do n't need to look after me . i 'm a big boy . and i 'm also a really good judge of character . jordan 's not gon na hurt me . kate : okay . rafe : okay . kate : i was just ... concerned because she seems so close , you know , so secretive . but obviously , she 's not that way with you . okay , i just wanted to stop by and say hello , but i do need to get going , so ... rafe : well ... take care . kate : you take care too . [ sighs ] you poor thing . jordan has n't told you anything .

nick : yeah . yeah . what ? you -- you seem surprised . gabi : well , you -- you did n't used to feel this way . nick : well , you know , i was messed up because of -- of what happened to me in prison , but i 'm ... past that now . you know what i mean ? if -- if sonny and will want to get married , i 'm -- i 'm glad they can . gabi : yeah , me too . nick : then why do n't you look very happy ? gabi : well , i mean , they just seem to think that everything 's gon na stay the same around here . nick : and you do n't ? gabi : people get married so that they can live alone together . i mean , that 's what i wanted . nick : yeah . i remember . but you and will have a little girl now , and that -- and that makes things different . and i 'm sure sonny and will have thought this all through . do n't you think ? kate : i know that , uh , you 're aware that i felt guilty and responsible for what happened to rafe . and , um , of course , you know that we were involved before the attack , and now we 're not ... because we both knew that what we had was based on living in the moment and no expectations for the future , but even that was too much for my ex - husband . rafe almost paid with his life for that . so , anyway , i hope that you understand that i still feel protective towards rafe . jordan : yeah , i - i guess i do . kate : good . anyway , i have one more thing that i 'd like to ask you to do for me . jordan : and what 's that ? kate : i want you to promise to never , ever hurt him . jordan : well , that 's not a problem . all i want to do now is make rafe happy . kate : good ... because if you do n't , i 'll -- rafe : you 'll what ?

jordan : you bet . mm . kate , it was good to see you again . kate : oh , it 's so good seeing you too . bye . [ chuckles ] rafe : [ chuckles ] well ... you and jordan seemed to be having a rather serious conversation . kate : well , actually , i was doing all the talking . rafe : oh . about what ? kate : well , you heard some of it . i was telling jordan that i hope she makes you happy . rafe : mm . it seemed kind of like a warning to me . kate : because that 's exactly what it was . rafe : oh . kate : mm - hmm . rafe : [ chuckles ] aiden : [ sighs ] hi . hope : you 're back . aiden : yeah , i had to take care of something for a client . [ sighs ] i think i owe you an apology . hope : you think ? aiden : my rant about the earrings ... it 's none of my business . hope : [ clears throat ] i agree . aiden : so i ran into ciara in the square . she let me know what she thinks of me . hope : i 'm sure she did . aiden : mm . hope : she 's a pretty unhappy little girl these days . aiden : yeah . and she also told me that , uh , you were not the one who bought her those earrings , so ... i apologize for jumping to the wrong conclusion . hope : and while you 're at it , how about apologizing for not allowing me to explain before you rushed to judgment ? aiden : okay , i admit i was a jackass . but believe me -- i understand how hard it is to raise a child in this crazy world . hope : apology accepted . will : did i tell you arianna wo n't let me feed her with a spoon anymore ? marlena : no , no , she wants to hold it herself ? will : yeah , let me tell you something . she sucks at it . [ both laugh ] will : but she does n't care . and -- and i 'm thinking to myself , `` if she 's like this now , what 's she gon na be like when she 's 14 ? `` marlena : oh , my gosh . you know what ? the only way to make sure that she makes good decisions , lives her best life , is to make a perfect example in your own life . honey , i 'm so pleased about you and sonny . and you know what else ? you and gabi -- you 'll work this thing out . will : thanks . i should get going . [ clears throat ] marlena : oh . both : mm . marlena : [ chuckles ] will : [ sighs ] i know that i have to live my own life ... but knowing and doing are two very different things . i still want to do everything for arianna . marlena : and she 's telling you that she wo n't always let you . and it 's perfectly fine for you to want to . will : [ chuckles ] marlena : go . nick : i got to tell you . i think this baby likes me . gabi : [ chuckles ] i do too .

[ sighs ] now that i 'm working for kate again at mad world , i feel like she might be able to get us a couple . gabi : you really think so ? nick : i do n't know . what do you think ? aiden : okay , well , uh , i 'm glad we talked . hope : yeah , yeah , me too . aiden : okay . [ sighs ] well , you know , maybe me shooting my mouth off was a -- was a good thing . hope : how do you figure that ? aiden : well , it did get you to rethink letting ciara keep all that stuff , so ... hope : oh , hold on a second . i just want to make something clear right now , okay ? your interference had nothing to do with my decision . aiden : uh , i do n't know if you remember , but when i walked in here , ciara was telling you how great you were for letting her keep all that stuff , so maybe -- hope : do you have any idea ... how sick and tired i am of your smug , self- righteous judgments about my daughter and me ? because the only time you were right -- correct about anything today is when you said the situation was none of your business ... because it damn well is n't . aiden : oh . yeah . sonny : oh . will : hey . sonny : hey . so how 'd your grandmother take the news ? will : she 's very happy for us . you know , you are gon na have to start calling her grandma too . sonny : that is not gon na happen . will : you know , i 'm glad i confided in her about you proposing , because she was the one that convinced me i wanted to do it . sonny : i knew i liked her . will : [ laughs ] i just wish your mom was as enthusiastic . sonny : i know . but she wants us to wait , and i guess she 's entitled to her own opinion . will : but you 're not having second thoughts , right ? sonny : do i look like i 'm having second thoughts ? i feel like the luckiest man in the world . mm . will : all right , well , i should get going . i promised my great - grandmother that i would take her to quilting group . sonny : you 're such a good boy . will : ah , stop . see you later . sonny : okay , get out of here . tad : hey . congratulations . will : thanks , t . tad : yeah . [ sighs ] so you know i 'm really psyched about you and will , right ? sonny : of course . tad : so i have something to say . do n't let nick fallon screw everything up for you . nick : [ laughs ] huh ? so , if -- if i can get us tickets , are -- are we on for the concert ? what ? gabi : well , maybe it 's not such a good idea for us to go out . nick : what , because of -- because of will and sonny ? gabi : well , i - i just think that they wo n't see how understanding and forgiving that you 've been to me . nick : hey , honestly , i 'm the one who needs to be forgiven for -- for what i did to you , so ... i get where they 're coming from on that , and , you know , now that they 're gon na be married , sonny 's kind of gon na be like ari 's stepfather , you know ? so they 're probably just ... you know , feeling protective of her . you know what i mean ? hey , here 's your mommy . gabi : hey . nick : anyway , i 'll let you finish your homework . gabi : thanks . thanks for bringing my notebook back . nick : yeah , no problem . no problem . i 'll , uh ... i will talk to you soon . all right ? gabi : say `` bye . `` nick : bye . bye , baby . bye , ari . bye . gabi : [ sighs ] i do n't care what will and sonny want . mommy is not gon na lose you ... no matter what . rafe : you do n't need to look after me . i 'm a big boy . and i 'm also a really good judge of character . jordan 's not gon na hurt me . kate : okay . rafe : okay . kate : i was just ... concerned because she seems so close , you know , so secretive . but obviously , she 's not that way with you . okay , i just wanted to stop by and say hello , but i do need to get going , so ... rafe : well ... take care . kate : you take care too .

philip : high school ... deimos : [ sighs ] philip : chloe needs me ... deimos : yes . yes . she needs you , philip . that 's right . the poor girl is pregnant , she 's all alone . and you wan na ride to her rescue , is that it ? well , that 's fine with me , but you 're gon na tell me what i wan na hear first . hey ! philip ! look at me ! no more lies ! do you hear me ? whatever it is that you know about nicole , whatever this secret is , you 're gon na tell me . and you 're gon na tell me now . jennifer : oh , this is great news . this has to be front page . chad : okay , well , maybe you should talk to justin first . you know , sometimes when things show up in the press first ... jennifer : you 're right . that 's a good point . but i 'm sure this is something he 's gon na wan na really hit hard during the appeal , you know ? so we 'll send someone over to take your statement and then we 'll just hold on to it until justin says it 's okay . chad : okay , good . jennifer : i mean , it 's still so strange that stefano was really dying and then wanted someone to end it for him .... i 'm sorry . that 's your father , and ... it hurts . chad : no , it 's fine . it 's fine , honestly , i do n't know how to feel . at first , i thought he was a victim , and now i find out that maybe he manipulated the whole thing . i mean , honestly , it 's like every single time i think my life is about to get back on track , something comes up , and just knocks me right -- jennifer : oh , yeah . i get exactly how you feel . chad : maybe things just affect me more now . my life 's always been complicated , but ... now i 've ever -- god , seems like nothing goes right lately , ever since that plane went down and i found out that abby was gon na be gone forever . nicole : eve ? hey ! what a surprise . eve : nicole ! nicole : how are you ? come here ! eve : good ! i am good . my school is on winter break so i thought i would come here and see if i could help any way with tate . nicole : oh , that 's really good of you . brady : listen , i 'm gon na get him a snack . it 's his snack time , so you two catch up . all right ? nicole : all right , see ya . eve : later . nicole : how are you doing ? really . eve : i 'm coping . you ? nicole : same . come on in . please . eve : so what 's going on ? nicole : that 's what i want to know . you 're close with theresa , right ? did you know she was back on drugs or planning to walk away from her family ? philip : chloe ... wan na help ... her . deimos : okay , all right , fine . look , why do n't we start with that , all right ? work with me , philip . the sooner we get this over with , the sooner you can be with chloe . that 's what you want , is n't it ? philip : wan na be ... chloe . deimos : right , okay , great . great , cooperate . so what is it ? what is this secret ? tell me . chloe 's hiding something and you know what it is . tell me and you can go be with chloe . you can hold her in your arms , you can tell her you love her , whatever you want . philip : chloe . deimos : yeah , chloe , chloe . in your arms , philip . think about it , all right ? just give in . tell me . what is this secret ? philip : embryo ... roman : [ sighs ] i hope hattie does n't get her hopes too high . just not a hell of a lot to go on here . hope : a lot of time has passed . roman : yeah . and if he was just using her , odds are alfonso clarizo is n't his real name . hope : you 'll keep trying ? roman : course i will . hope : thank you . case you did n't notice , hattie ... sort of has a thing for you , mr. roman . roman : really ? hope : mm . roman : must have missed that . somehow . hope : right . roman : we 'll talk later . hope : bye . eve : i had no idea that theresa was about to go off the rails . i mean , not a word , and i practically had to force daddy to tell me what happened . nicole : so what did happen ? brady does n't want to talk about it . eve : well , apparently she slipped and went back on drugs . figured that family life was n't for her anymore , and just took off . nicole : my god . we were business partners . i thought i knew her . i thought she was happy . eve : i know , nicole . so did i . drugs , i guess , you know ? i 'm not surprise that she went back to her old ways , because when it comes to drugs , people have a hard time walking away from that stuff . you know ? nicole : i guess . eve : but tate , he needs his father and he needs a mother . a mother figure , anyway . so that 's why i came back . nicole : well , i 'm sure brady appreciates the help . eve : i hope so . my life has been , you know ... it 's been empty since paige , and then sometimes being alone in new york is just ... it 's hard . it 's awful . it 's hell . i still ... miss paige so much . nicole : i know . oh , my god . i know exactly how you feel . brady : boy , are you gon na have a long , long list for santa this year , huh ? you have been such a good boy . best boy .

[ cell phone vibrates ] brady : hello ? he did what ? deimos : embryo ? what does that mean ? what does that have to do with nicole ? hey , hey . philip , look at me ! look at me . i 'm right here . what do you mean , embryo ? philip : embryo ? deimos : oh , for the love of mary . you know what ? i 'm gon na up the dosage . 1 cc did n't do the trick . maybe 2 will . philip : embryo ! deimos : yeah , yeah , yeah . embryo , i heard you . i heard you . means absolutely nothing to me . unless you tell me how an embryo has anything to -- wait a minute . chad : i did n't mean to bring up abby like that . jennifer : no . it 's perfectly fine that you bring up abby . i think you should talk about her . i think you should ... think about her all the time . that 's what i do . talk about her , think about her . she 's in my heart . listen , if you ever want someone just to talk to about it , you can come to me . chad : thank you . jennifer : and i want you to know that i really believe that things are gon na get better . just hang on . chad : okay , it 's okay . i 'm not -- i know . i know things are gon na get better . hey , and i 'm not gon na forget about abby ever . i just , you know , right now , i have to -- i have to focus on thomas , okay ? um , oh , uh ... before i forget , the memorial that father louis mentioned , i 'm gon na go ahead and i 'm gon na go forward with it . jennifer : oh . chad : yeah , just so thomas has something that he can , you know , connect with his mother when he 's older . jennifer : right , um , i do n't think it 's something you have to rush into , though . i think you should take your time till you can really decide the right way to do that . chad : no , yeah , i have . it 's gon na be great . it 's gon na be just like the one the town did for your grandparents . hope : you 're sure ? harold would n't be making any of this up , right ? rafe : no , he told chad that he would testify . i 'm telling you , this could be your ticket out of here . hope : i hope so . rafe : yeah . hope : but i 've seen judges pass on new evidence before . rafe : no , no , no , no , no . hope , that is not gon na happen . this backs up exactly what you said , that stefano kept pushing you and pushing you till he finally got what he wanted . hope : with an added bonus . i ended up in prison . rafe : okay , yeah , for now . but the bottom line is justin thinks this is gon na carry a lot of weight with this appeal . you could be out of here sooner than you think . deimos : answer me ! is chloe carrying nicole 's baby ? philip ! philip , look at me . is chloe carrying nicole 's baby , yes or no ? wake up , you bastard . you know , now tell me ! am i right ? nicole said that the timeline did n't fit , but maybe chloe went to try again . is that it ? and she did n't tell her ? i know you can hear me , bastard . nicole deserves to know the truth . and i 'm not gon na let you hold onto this lie . do you understand me ? philip ! did chloe betray nicole ? damn it ! you know what ? you 're gon na open your eyes and you 're gon na talk to me , you son of a bitch ! brady : deimos ! what are you doing ? hope : hey . hi . chad : have you talked to ... talked to rafe ? hope : yeah , yeah . he told me . thank you for what you did . is there something ... chad : i , uh ... what i said in court , hope , i 'm ... i 'd like to try to make peace . brady : deimos , what is that ? deimos : all right , all right . brady : you hear me ? this stops . deimos : all right . i 'm sorry . brady : the hell 's wrong with you ? deimos : [ sighs ] got carried away , okay ? just needed some answers . and how the hell did you find me anyway ? brady : little birdie told me that you kidnapped your nephew , tied him up and drugged him ? are you kidding me ? are you insane ? deimos : i said i 'm sorry . brady : sorry , understand that you 're sorry . ca n't imagine what he knows to make you do something like this . you 're put in a prominent family position , our family . is this how you conduct business ? deimos : okay , fine , fine . i know it looks bad . brady : you think it looks bad ? deimos : back in here . look , i needed to get some answers and i needed them quickly . that only he could give me . i was n't gon na sit around waiting for him to share . brady : i ca n't imagine what he knows to warrant something like this . deimos : look , it 's not as bad as it looks . all right ? the drug will wear off in a few hours . there 's no side effects whatsoever . brady : okay , doctor . is he even conscious ? philip : even conscious ... brady : philip , hey , hey , hey . philip ? philip , it 's brady . you 're gon na be okay . you 're gon na be all right . philip : okay , all right . brady : completely out of it . deimos : just take him in the other room , all right ? make him comfortable . when he comes to , make sure he has something to drink . if he wants to leave , let him get the hell out of here . brady : well , now that you 're sorry and that he 's taken care of , do you wan na tell me what you were questioning him about ? could n't help but overhear something about chloe and nicole . you tell me what 's going on . hope : i do n't hold what you said about me in court against you . chad : even if i asked the judge to throw the book at you ? hope : i killed your father . chad : yeah , but now it looks like he tricked you into doing it . hope : but i still did it . chad : hope , i want you to know that i 'm not angry . and i hate seeing you punished . deimos : does n't matter what i was questioning him about . it 's personal . brady : well , since chloe was my ex - wife and nicole 's one of my best friends in the world , it 's personal to me too . deimos : whatever you think you heard , brady , you were mistaken . i never mentioned their names . brady : you got a lot of nerve lying to me . right to my face after what you pulled with philip . i do n't know , maybe it 's time . maybe it 's time we bring victor out of retirement and let him know what 's going on here . you know , he trusted you to lead this family , deimos , in a way that he wanted it to be lead , not like a petty tyrant with a private goon squad . so you make up your mind right now . do i call victor ? do we make this a big deal , a family meeting has to be called , or do you just level with me right now and keep it right here ? deimos : all right . okay , fine . i overheard philip talking to chloe 's mother about a secret that they were keeping from nicole . brady : which is ? deimos : i believe chloe is carrying daniel and nicole 's baby . | brady asked jennifer about the pills she had . she lied to him and made it seem like she needed them because of what happened with abby and jj . nicole dreamed of daniel . daniel advised her to move on with deimos . deimos wanted answers from philip . chad told rafe that harold gave him the gun that stefano had . chad told him that stefano wanted to die . chad and rafe realized that stefano wanted someone to kill him . hattie told roman about the guy she met who framed her for embezzlement . roman thanked hattie for looking out for hope . chad told rafe that harold would testify to what stefano told him about the gun . brady agreed not to say anything about the pills . eve offered her condolences to jennifer . deimos confronted philip about what he was talking to nancy about . philip told him that he was in love with chloe . deimos demanded that he tell him about what he knew about nicole . | <s>[INST] eve : oh , oh , oh , oh ! jennifer : i 'm so sorry . excuse ... eve . eve : jennifer . you , uh , are in a hurry today . jennifer : yeah , um ... i - i need to get home . brady : get home with those pills , jenn ?

so we 'll send someone over to take your statement and then we 'll just hold on to it until justin says it 's okay . chad : okay , good . jennifer : i mean , it 's still so strange that stefano was really dying and then wanted someone to end it for him .... i 'm sorry . that 's your father , and ... it hurts . chad : no , it 's fine . it 's fine , honestly , i do n't know how to feel . at first , i thought he was a victim , and now i find out that maybe he manipulated the whole thing . i mean , honestly , it 's like every single time i think my life is about to get back on track , something comes up , and just knocks me right -- jennifer : oh , yeah . i get exactly how you feel . chad : maybe things just affect me more now . my life 's always been complicated , but ... now i 've ever -- god , seems like nothing goes right lately , ever since that plane went down and i found out that abby was gon na be gone forever . nicole : eve ? hey ! what a surprise . eve : nicole ! nicole : how are you ? come here ! eve : good ! i am good . my school is on winter break so i thought i would come here and see if i could help any way with tate . nicole : oh , that 's really good of you . brady : listen , i 'm gon na get him a snack . it 's his snack time , so you two catch up . all right ?

just give in . tell me . what is this secret ? philip : embryo ... roman : [ sighs ] i hope hattie does n't get her hopes too high . just not a hell of a lot to go on here . hope : a lot of time has passed . roman : yeah . and if he was just using her , odds are alfonso clarizo is n't his real name . hope : you 'll keep trying ? roman : course i will . hope : thank you . case you did n't notice , hattie ... sort of has a thing for you , mr. roman . roman : really ? hope : mm . roman : must have missed that . somehow . hope : right . roman : we 'll talk later . hope : bye . eve : i had no idea that theresa was about to go off the rails . i mean , not a word , and i practically had to force daddy to tell me what happened . nicole : so what did happen ? brady does n't want to talk about it . eve : well , apparently she slipped and went back on drugs . figured that family life was n't for her anymore , and just took off . nicole : my god . we were business partners . i thought i knew her . i thought she was happy . eve : i know , nicole . so did i . drugs , i guess , you know ? i 'm not surprise that she went back to her old ways , because when it comes to drugs , people have a hard time walking away from that stuff . you know ? nicole : i guess . eve : but tate , he needs his father and he needs a mother . a mother figure , anyway . so that 's why i came back . nicole : well , i 'm sure brady appreciates the help . eve : i hope so . my life has been , you know ... it 's been empty since paige , and then sometimes being alone in new york is just ... it 's hard . it 's awful . it 's hell . i still ... miss paige so much . nicole : i know . oh , my god . i know exactly how you feel . brady : boy , are you gon na have a long , long list for santa this year , huh ?

[ cell phone vibrates ] brady : hello ? he did what ? deimos : embryo ? what does that mean ? what does that have to do with nicole ? hey , hey . philip , look at me ! look at me . i 'm right here . what do you mean , embryo ? philip : embryo ? deimos : oh , for the love of mary . you know what ? i 'm gon na up the dosage . 1 cc did n't do the trick . maybe 2 will . philip : embryo ! deimos : yeah , yeah , yeah . embryo , i heard you . i heard you . means absolutely nothing to me . unless you tell me how an embryo has anything to -- wait a minute . chad : i did n't mean to bring up abby like that . jennifer : no . it 's perfectly fine that you bring up abby . i think you should talk about her . i think you should ... think about her all the time . that 's what i do . talk about her , think about her . she 's in my heart . listen , if you ever want someone just to talk to about it , you can come to me . chad : thank you . jennifer : and i want you to know that i really believe that things are gon na get better . just hang on . chad : okay , it 's okay . i 'm not -- i know . i know things are gon na get better . hey , and i 'm not gon na forget about abby ever . i just , you know , right now , i have to -- i have to focus on thomas , okay ? um , oh , uh ... before i forget , the memorial that father louis mentioned , i 'm gon na go ahead and i 'm gon na go forward with it . jennifer : oh . chad : yeah , just so thomas has something that he can , you know , connect with his mother when he 's older . jennifer : right , um , i do n't think it 's something you have to rush into , though . i think you should take your time till you can really decide the right way to do that . chad : no , yeah , i have . it 's gon na be great . it 's gon na be just like the one the town did for your grandparents . hope : you 're sure ? harold would n't be making any of this up , right ? rafe : no , he told chad that he would testify . i 'm telling you , this could be your ticket out of here . hope : i hope so . rafe : yeah . hope : but i 've seen judges pass on new evidence before . rafe : no , no , no , no , no . hope , that is not gon na happen . this backs up exactly what you said , that stefano kept pushing you and pushing you till he finally got what he wanted . hope : with an added bonus . i ended up in prison . rafe : okay , yeah , for now . but the bottom line is justin thinks this is gon na carry a lot of weight with this appeal . you could be out of here sooner than you think . deimos : answer me ! is chloe carrying nicole 's baby ? philip ! philip , look at me . is chloe carrying nicole 's baby , yes or no ? wake up , you bastard . you know , now tell me ! am i right ? nicole said that the timeline did n't fit , but maybe chloe went to try again . is that it ? and she did n't tell her ? i know you can hear me , bastard . nicole deserves to know the truth . and i 'm not gon na let you hold onto this lie . do you understand me ? philip ! did chloe betray nicole ?

deimos : okay , fine , fine . i know it looks bad . brady : you think it looks bad ? deimos : back in here . look , i needed to get some answers and i needed them quickly . that only he could give me . i was n't gon na sit around waiting for him to share . brady : i ca n't imagine what he knows to warrant something like this . deimos : look , it 's not as bad as it looks . all right ? the drug will wear off in a few hours . there 's no side effects whatsoever . brady : okay , doctor . is he even conscious ? philip : even conscious ... brady : philip , hey , hey , hey . philip ? philip , it 's brady . you 're gon na be okay . you 're gon na be all right . philip : okay , all right . brady : completely out of it . deimos : just take him in the other room , all right ? make him comfortable . when he comes to , make sure he has something to drink . if he wants to leave , let him get the hell out of here . brady : well , now that you 're sorry and that he 's taken care of , do you wan na tell me what you were questioning him about ? could n't help but overhear something about chloe and nicole . you tell me what 's going on . hope : i do n't hold what you said about me in court against you . chad : even if i asked the judge to throw the book at you ? hope : i killed your father . chad : yeah , but now it looks like he tricked you into doing it . hope : but i still did it . chad : hope , i want you to know that i 'm not angry . and i hate seeing you punished . deimos : does n't matter what i was questioning him about . it 's personal . brady : well , since chloe was my ex - wife and nicole 's one of my best friends in the world , it 's personal to me too . deimos : whatever you think you heard , brady , you were mistaken . i never mentioned their names . brady : you got a lot of nerve lying to me . right to my face after what you pulled with philip . i do n't know , maybe it 's time . maybe it 's time we bring victor out of retirement and let him know what 's going on here . you know , he trusted you to lead this family , deimos , in a way that he wanted it to be lead , not like a petty tyrant with a private goon squad . so you make up your mind right now . do i call victor ? do we make this a big deal , a family meeting has to be called , or do you just level with me right now and keep it right here ? deimos : all right . okay , fine . i overheard philip talking to chloe 's mother about a secret that they were keeping from nicole . brady : which is ?

[ scene_break ] lily : why are you turning this into a problem ? if you could just admit that noah seeing luke is a good thing , we could just put this behind us . holden : i ca n't believe i have to explain this to you . luke is our son . i love him as much as you do . lily : of course you do . i never said you did n't . holden : no , what you 've said basically is that you do n't trust me . so what do you do ? you turn to dusty to do what you want . lily : so , you 're not upset about noah seeing luke as much you are about dusty bringing him there ? what is this really about ? luke : it must have been so awful growing up with your father . the ways he made you suffer . noah : what about you ? i mean , how can you look at me and not see the man who put you here ? luke : i just see you . i was afraid that you would n't want to come here . you know , that seeing me would remind you of your dad . noah : it does , luke , but it also -- luke : look , noah , please just -- just say it . whatever it is . noah : my dad 's not the man who i thought he was . and seeing you reminds me of that , and it really hurts . but seeing you -- seeing you also reminds me how much i care about you . [ scene_break ] lily : you ca n't be jealous . holden : look , i do n't want to play games . if dusty 's got what you need , then why do n't you go to him ? lily : just stop it , you know that 's not what i want . holden : why ca n't you and i be on the same page ? lily : i 've tried . for months . and all you do is criticize me . you take your anger out on me and i -- it 's just not you . i do n't recognize you anymore . holden : yeah , you 're right . you 're right . which is probably why we should n't be together right now . [ scene_break ] katie : so , the realtor said that if we do n't close the deal today , we 're going to lose the house . jack : i 'm sorry i 'm making this so hard on you . what do you want to do ? katie : well , i love the house . i look at it , and i see us there . i see us raising our family there . jack : this is n't forever , you know . katie : i know . you have to do what you have to do . that 's why i was thinking , if we just take the plunge with the house , maybe we 'll feel a little more married . it is perfect for us , is n't it ? jack : yeah , it is . it 's beautiful . i love the house . i do . what the hell ? let 's buy it . katie : yes ! jack : yeah . [ scene_break ] carly : i do n't know what you 're doing , brad . you have no right to accuse me of anything . brad : i ca n't wait to see the death scene . man , how are you going to pull that off ? carly : shut up ! brad : oh , get off it , carly . your doctor said straight up , you 're not dying . so , tell me , how come you 're not bursting to tell the good news to everybody ? or would you like me to take a wild guess ? [ scene_break ] jack : i love the house as much as you do . i really do . katie : you have no idea how much i was hoping that you were going to say that . jack : there is something i need to tell you , though . katie : what ? you hate yard work ? jack : uh , no . even if we buy the house , i do n't know when i 'll be able to move in . katie : why ? jack : because i 've decided to stay with carly until -- well , until the end . katie : you 're moving in with carly ? jack : well , carly ca n't be alone anymore . she needs 24-hour care at this point . katie : ohh . i do n't know what to say . jack : well , i hope you 'll say that you understand that my kids need me to help them through this really difficult time with their mom . katie , i 'm sorry . i am , and i know that moving back into that house is a really loaded thing . but it 's not forever . katie : okay , so you 're telling that between now and then , i 'm supposed to live in our new house all alone ? jack : you 're not going to be alone . you 're not going to really be alone . even if we buy the house , i 'll be there soon . i will . please , let 's -- let 's have faith in us , okay ? let 's buy the house , no matter what , knowing that we will live there together one day . katie : some day . jack : every day . every single day . for years . i promise you . [ scene_break ] carly : i am not keeping my recovery a secret . brad : your recovery ? you played this for all you 're worth , carly , did n't you ? to get jack away from katie . carly : now , you listen to me , i did n't plan this . and if you talked to my doctor , then you know that . he told me i was dying . brad : but you were n't . so why were you staggering around and collapsing every five minutes ? carly : the medicine that he gave me had side effects . brad : and you 're not suing the doctor , the hospital , or anyone ? carly : no . brad : come on . carly : why would i do that ? he did n't set out to torture me . and he sent my scans to lots of other doctors , and all of them thought the abscess was a tumor . it was an honest mistake . brad : okay . okay . so , when are you going to tell the happy news to jack ? carly : i ca n't . not yet . [ scene_break ] will : so , are you okay , ali ? alison : yeah , never better . gwen : i know we 've said this before , but thank you so much for doing this for us . alison : well , it 's about time i did something right . will : oh , stop it . cut it out . you 've given us the best gift anybody could ever give . and that trumps the past forever . alison : well , let 's just cross our fingers and hope that it works . susan : it 's time . gwen : all right . good luck . susan : take her to o.r . one . will ? will : yeah ? susan : next comes your part . will : okay . [ scene_break ] luke : you care about me . well , knowing that makes being in this bed almost bearable . noah : this whole thing , coming out , i mean , it 's -- it 's still really hard for me . luke : i know . noah : i do n't think it was as easy for me as it was for you . luke : well , it was n't so easy for me . noah : but your parents , they accepted you . i mean , i ca n't even accept myself half the time . and the worst part is when i think that if i had never come out to my father , you 'd still be walking around . luke : look , noah , whatever happens , i 'm still so glad that we met . noah : how can you say that ? luke : because it 's the truth . noah : so , maybe we can pick things up where we left off when you get out of here . luke : noah , i meant what i said . like , i am so glad that we found each other . and what we had , it was so short , but it was so good , and i will never forget that . but that does n't mean that i think that we have a future together . noah : but you just said how great things were . i mean , why would n't we keep things going when you get better ? luke : because , i might not get better . [ scene_break ] carly : i 'm going to tell jack . brad : when ? carly : believe it or not , brad , i 've already tried . brad : h hard could it be ? three little words , `` i 'm not dying . `` carly : i know , and i 've gotten so close to saying it . but then something interrupts me , and i -- brad : you what ? carly : i think of all the reasons why i should n't say it . brad : like what ? carly : like i prayed for more time with jack , and my prayer was answered . brad : blaming your lies on god ? now , come on , carly . that 's rich . carly : i did n't manipulate any of this . i did n't pretend to be dying . i honestly believed i was along as the entire medical community -- brad : that did n't stop you from enjoying jack having play nursemaid with you . carly : no , now wait . i did not -- i did not ask him to take care of me . he insisted . he opened the door , and i just sort of let him walk through it . is that so terrible ? brad : yeah ! when he thinks he standing by the side of his children 's dying mother . yes ! carly : i need more time with him , and if this is how it has to happen -- it 's going to come out eventually , anyway . so what difference does it make if i just wait a little bit longer ? [ scene_break ] katie : so , back to me waiting for carly to die . i ca n't do that . that 's awful , jack . i 'm not going to do it . forget it . jack : forget ? forget what ? forget the house thing ? or something else ? katie : i do n't know , jack , i just -- i do n't know . [ scene_break ] brad : the longer you wait to tell jack , the bigger the difference it will make . but then again , you already know that , do n't you ? carly : what are you talking about ? brad : you did n't plan this , carly , but you are using it . you ca n't tell me that you have n't noticed jack gradually abandoning his wife to spend 24/7 with you ? and you 're thinking -- you 're thinking , `` well , the longer i can get jack to think i 'm halfway to heaven , the closer we 're get . `` unless , of course , what could happen ? oh , i know . that even if he finds out the truth , that he 'll be in so deep , that he could n't leave you if he tried . [ scene_break ] lily : i was looking for you . holden : yeah , i promised my mother i 'd fix this . lily : i thought brad fixed that . holden : exactly . lily : all right . holden : since luke was at the hospital with company , i thought this was as good a time as any . lily : can you take a break ? holden : you know , i really should just get this finished . lily : i think our problems are a little more important than the plumbing , do n't you ? holden : yeah . you 're right . see , the thing is , this i can fix . but i have no idea what to do about you and me . [ scene_break ] noah : i -- i did n't know your injuries were permanent . luke : they might be . the doctors wo n't know for sure . look , noah , this is n't your fault . i do n't blame you . noah : no , no , i 'm just trying to -- i 'm just trying to imagine what you 're going through right now . i do n't know what i would do if i could n't use my -- my whole body . luke : well , hopefully , you 'll never have to find out . it sucks having a boyfriend who 's in a wheelchair , huh ? noah : is that what i am ? am i your boyfriend ? luke : i do n't -- i just -- i just totally weirded you out . it 's okay . you can go if you want , but it was really -- really kind of you to come . noah : luke , i 'm not going anywhere until you answer my question . is that what you want ? do you want me to be your boyfriend ? [ scene_break ] lily : since we do n't know what to do about each other , maybe we should n't do anything right now . holden : what do you mean ? lily : we keep going around in circles , and it 's not getting us anywhere . you tell me you want me to talk to you . but then i talk to you , and you just get angry with me . so maybe we should n't talk . maybe we should just be there for each other , for luke . holden , we 've been married a very long time , and we 've been through a lot worse . can we just forget these misunderstandings and just go home ? holden : no . no , i do n't think we can . [ scene_break ] carly : okay , you 're right . jack has been much more attentive . he 's been much more loving since he first thought he was losing me . brad : surprise , surprise . carly : he still cares about me , brad . i knew it . and i care about him . brad : it 's too late , carly . he 's got a brand new marriage , and it 's wrong for you to keep separating him from his wife every chance you get . carly : he cares about katie . i know he does . he 's just torn right now . brad : and that suits you just fine ? carly : jack is worth fighting for . i 've never said otherwise . and if katie is n't willing to fight for him as hard as i am , then she does n't deserve him . [ scene_break ] jack : hey , i do n't want you giving up on us . katie , look at me . since the moment we were married , nothing has been the way it 's supposed to be . but that 's life , okay ? there 's no handbook for dealing with this stuff . just know that i love you , and i want to spend the rest of my life with you . katie : just not while carly 's alive . oh , my god , i ca n't believe i just said that . i 'm sorry . jack : no , no , it 's -- it 's okay . you 're entitled . i do n't blame you . katie : i do n't know how to handle this either , jack . i just feel like no matter what i do , carly holds all the cards . how do i compete with a dying woman ? [ scene_break ] brad : okay , okay , go with me here . let 's play this out . all right , you live . jack finds out that you were lying about you dying . okay , and you did n't tell him . he 's going to ignore this , the absolute biggest lie in your long history of lies , and you live happily ever after ? carly : he does n't need to find out . brad : he might when you do n't die . carly : well , i 'll tell him , eventually , that is was a misdiagnosis . i 'll just fudge the time frame a little bit . brad : how ? carly : there 's no reason he has to know the doctor already told me . he could find out in a week or two . after i 've gotten jack to admit that if he had a second chance with me , he 'd take it , then there would be no turning back . brad : well , that 's quite a plan . unless , of course , i tell him now . carly : you would n't . brad : i might . carly : why would you rat me out ? brad : maybe because you 're lying to my brother , doing the nastiest , most conniving thing that you have ever done ? and that you 're playing with his heart , you 're playing with his mind . you know , i mean , you 're letting him give up his new life , a marriage , just because he thinks you 're about to croak . carly : if jack walked out on his marriage to be with me , that was his choice . does n't it say something ? brad : it says he 's a good man , and you used that to land him where you want . carly : he 's not a victim here . brad : all right . okay , okay , what about katie ? not that i 'd expect you to care . but she 's in this . and you know , her heart is broken because her groom abandoned her on her wedding night to be with you . [ scene_break ] jack : you 're not competing with carly , katie . i swear it . me moving in , it 's mostly for the kids ' sake . katie : it still does n't change the fact that you 're living with her and not your wife . jack : okay , i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry that i put you in such an impossible position . i love you . katie : i love you , too . i do . but it does n't change the fact that it 's so hard for me to know that you 're walking away from me to go live with your ex - wife . jack : katie , katie , the situation is finite . katie : that 's my point . knowing there 's an end makes me start to wish for things that i do n't want to wish for . do n't you get it ? when you married me , you made me a better person . but if i stay in this marriage under these circumstances , i do n't know how much longer i can stay the woman that you fell in love with . [ scene_break ] carly : katie has shown us over and over and over again that she is more than capable of taking care of herself -- brad : okay , okay , okay , okay , okay , carly , you do n't have any sympathy for her , fine . what about your kids ? carly : my kids are fine . brad : yeah , what about your kids , carly ? yeah , they 're fine ? you 're letting their hearts break ! they still think you 're dying , carly ! i mean , is it worth it for you ? is this all worth it ? to put them through that so you can manipulate your love life ? what kind of mother does that ? carly : i have figured out a way to let my kids know that i 'm going to be just fine . brad : how ? how ? how ! ? carly : just do n't tell jack , okay ? i may not be dying , but i did get sick , and that must have happened for a reason . brad : and that 's what you 're telling yourself ? carly : it brought jack back to me , and i did n't want katie to be involved . i certainly -- i certainly do n't want to hurt her , but this is bigger than all of us . it 's -- brad : please , please do not say kismet . carly : hey , fate then . it 's fate . you would n't interfere with fate , would you ? [ scene_break ] gwen : you need a cigarette ? will : god , this is so weird . how weird is it having the nurse standing outside telling you to hurry up ? gwen : it 's one of the things i kind of like about you , you know , you like to take your time . it 's a joke . i 'm not going to joke anymore . is alison back yet ? susan : oh , she 's just waking up from the anesthesia . i 'm going to take her home soon . gwen : how did it go ? susan : very smoothly . gwen : great . look , i just want to thank you for all of your support . and alison , she 's been really amazing . susan : i 'm glad you appreciate what she 's done for you . gwen : i mean , you were n't all for it in the beginning . susan : i just thought you guys were a little young . will : we 're going to love this baby so much , susan . susan : i know you will . and that 's what 's important , right ? gwen : hey . how do you feel ? alison : okay . i wonder if our cells are getting busy down in the lab ? will : yeah , let 's hope so . alison , we 're never going to forget what you did for us . gwen : not in a million years . [ scene_break ] holden : how many times can we do this ? lily : as many times as it takes . we 're supposed to be together until death do us part , remember ? holden : right . and we 're supposed to respect each other and be honest with each other , too . how many times can we patch things up ? i mean , maybe we should just admit that this marriage is broken . lily : we 're not broken . we just -- we just need some time alone . it has n't been easy , obviously with luke in the hospital . we can do this , for us . we 've promised each other that we would take some time to remember what it 's like to just be us . holden : i wish we could . lily : we can do that . we can do that . let 's just go home for an hour . we do n't have to do anything . we do n't have to talk . just -- we 'll just be . holden : no . i want to stay here . i want to stay here out at the farm , but i think that you should go home . lily : what are you saying ? holden : lily , if we ca n't share our thoughts and our feelings , well , then maybe we should n't share our living space , either . maybe that would be the best thing to do .

[ scene_break ] jack : katie , please -- please just wait -- wait . just think about this a little while longer , okay ? buying a house right now , yeah , it 's a pretty big step . but that does n't mean that we 've got to do a 180 and run in the opposite direction . katie : i 'm not filing for divorce tomorrow , if that 's what you 're worried about . i just -- i ca n't wait in the wings anymore . jack : what does that mean ? katie : if i keep thinking of you as my husband , and you 're never actually being my husband , i 'm going to end up hating myself and resenting you , and i do n't want to do that .

[ scene_break ] lily : i 'm tired , too . i 'm tired of talking and not having it do any good . holden : that 's probably the one thing that we agree on . so it 's probably best that we just leave each other alone for a while .

[ scene_break ] dorian : oh , i could barely stand waiting . thank you , darling . and then ? langston : well , ford kept saying he realized what he did to me was wrong . dorian : ha ha . too little , too late . langston : yeah , well , he promised me that he would change , that he would try and be a better person for me . and like an idiot , i was about to forgive him . until i found out that he slept with jessica . dorian : jessica ? langston : jessica buchanan . dorian : no , that could n't be possible . how could he po -- wait a minute . when did -- when did this purported incident take place ? langston : the night of prom . dorian : oh . when jessica still thought she was a high school student . langston : when i found out what he did to her , i was so angry and so hurt that all i wanted to do was hurt him back . so i did . dorian : how ? langston : well , i showed up to his apartment and i told him that i wanted him back . and while we were kissing , i left a camera running . and i handed the pictures over to the dean . dorian : and ford was fired . langston . oh ! i have never been prouder of you than i am at this moment . congratulations ! ha ha ha ha !

[ scene_break ] rex : why would n't i call bo ? i mean , after everything he 's done for me , the least i can do is let him know where his son is . clint : bo 's like a father to you , is n't he ? so do you really want to drag him through the mud and humiliate him ? rex : how would i be doing that , exactly ? clint : well , think about it , rex . david vickers is a two - bit con man who , given the opportunity , would drain my family dry and destroy everything asa buchanan ever built . now , do you really want the whole world to know that the police commissioner 's son is this low - life criminal locked up in a foreign prison ? rex : i think bo can handle it . clint : maybe . but could bo handle arresting you for burglary ? [ scene_break ] bo : i was telling inez that clint cares about his family . inez : excuse me . i 'm just gon na -- i have to go freshen up . bo : sure . nora : so ... how did the subject of clint come up at all ? i mean , you did n't start out by saying , `` hey , did you hear about my gun - toting brother `` ? bo : no . clint and inez were here together when i walked in . nora : well , i do n't -- i do n't see him here . all i saw when i walked in was the two of you sitting here with your heads together . bo : ah , clint had to leave . nora : and then you started trashing clint to inez ? bo : i was n't trashing clint . i was just trying to give inez a little insight into who he is . nora : why ? are you trying to talk inez out of seeing clint ? [ scene_break ] clint : how do you think bo 's gon na feel when he finds out that , on top of breaking several laws , you tried to get matthew , bo 's own son , to cover for you ? not to mention what happens to kelly . rex : no . all kelly did was hire me to find david . clint : find david . by breaking into the offices of her son 's family 's business . you know , i 'm gon na have to get kevin involved in this , and i might even have to file criminal charges against kelly . rex : okay , yes , she hired me to find information , but my methods , she had -- clint : your methods . your stamp was all over your methods . does n't take a genius to figure out that kelly was the one that stole the security card that enabled you to gain illegal access to this office . and then there 's gigi to think about .

[ scene_break ] ford : should i ... grab some gloves so we can have it out ? bo : i was n't trying to talk inez out of seeing clint . i was trying to encourage her to give him a chance . nora : by touting clint 's gunplay ? bo : it just came up . nora : how does something like that just come up ? bo : with clint ? nora : oh , point taken . bo : yes . plus , i think that inez is perfectly capable of forming her own opinions . nora : well , i certainly hope so . besides , i think it would be great if clint started to see someone . and from what little i know of inez , i think she could use the distraction , too .

[ scene_break ] brody : as much as i 'd love to knock you flat on your ass again , it 's over . jessica and i are getting married . we 're having a baby . ford : so even if the kid does turn out to be mine -- brody : it 's not . ford : okay . i get it . whatever happens , you 're the father . brody : exactly . and if you try to make any problems for us -- ford : hey , do n't worry about me . i got plenty of problems of my own . [ scene_break ] langston : i do n't know . i think i may have gone a little too far . dorian : as far as i 'm concerned , you did n't go far enough . langston : but ford is n't the only one i hurt . i mean , james -- dorian : james ? james , the one who kidnapped starr and nearly got her killed ? langston : because ford got fired , james ca n't go to l.u . and he ca n't afford to go anywhere else . so now , because of me , james might not even get to go to college at all . dorian : when ford kissed you , he knew that you were still his student , did he not ? langston : yeah . dorian : therefore , he brought everything upon himself and james . you have nothing to blame yourself for . langston : well , it does n't feel like that . dorian : darling , the only one you should be concerned about is you . and sometimes there is collateral damage . [ scene_break ] rex : what does gigi have to do with anything ? clint : you know , it was kimberly that kept me up to speed with the two of you . and i must say , you 've had a tough time of it . rex : no thanks to kim . clint : you 're trying to rebuild the relationship , but how long would that relationship last , do you think , if gigi had to visit you in prison ? and shane ? oh , you being in prison ... how would that affect your son ? so ... we are just going to forget that you ever came across this . for gigi 's sake . [ scene_break ] cristian : time 's up . let 's see how you decided to interpret these objects . good . good , but you can use ... gigi : wow . that 's so realistic . ulrich : thanks . could 've been more precise if i 'd had more time . cristian : that 's very well - rendered . ulrich : thank you . cristian : but what is it about ? ulrich : it 's purely esthetic . i drew what i saw . cristian : well , if i wanted a representation of what i can see with the naked eye , i could 've taken a photograph . what about you ... ms . morasco ? gigi : yes ? cristian : why did you draw what you did ? gigi : i do n't know . uh ... i guess i was thinking about how life changes and how the past is pushed into the background sometimes , but it 's still there , lingering . cristian : very good . a technician sees what 's there and reproduces it . an artist sees what is n't there ... and creates it . very good . [ scene_break ] rex : you know what i 'm thinking , clint ? you can call bo and have him cart me off to jail . hell , it would n't be the first time . but then this picture of david would end up as evidence . bo and dorian would find out where david is ... and how he got there . but then again , maybe i 'm wrong and you did n't do anything illegal to make him disappear . but if you did , kidnapping is a federal offense . you could end up in more trouble than i am . so i think i 'll take my chances with bo . see how he wants to handle this . clint : well played , balsom . you 're a very persistent young man . but i think you 're gon na be changing your mind . rex : why would i do that ? clint : because ... i 'm prepared to make you an offer that you ca n't refuse . rex : what , should i expect a horse 's head in my bed ? clint : no , no , nothing like that . how 's business been at ultraviolet ? rex : fine . clint : even with profits down for the third consecutive quarter this year ? rex : how do you know that ? clint : must be hard lately to pay for shane 's asthma medication . right ? i know how much it costs to raise a kid . at least i know how much it costs to raise your kid . rex : you had me investigated ? clint : you were investigating me . it 's just smart business to stay on top of things . anyway , you must be under tremendous pressure to cover your expenses . but i can just make your troubles go away . and gigi 's , too . you know , a little bird told me that gigi 's going back to school . rex : what if she is ? clint : well , i 'm just saying that it , you know , must be hard to do on the salary of a waitress . and undoubtedly , you would want to help her with that . that could seal your relationship if you could do that for her , right ? rex : i do n't need to seal anything . clint : are you sure about that ? you and gigi are not living together , so things must still be a little fragile , like a proverbial house of cards . and we both know how easily those can be knocked down . rex : what 's your point ? clint : whatever kelly 's paying you ... i 'll double it . [ scene_break ] gigi : thanks again for your encouragement . cristian : i 'm just telling the truth . gigi : well , it means a lot to me . ever since i -- i got in , ever since i applied , i -- i was terrified that this was a mistake . for the first time , i 'm seeing the possibilities . cristian : i 'm glad . gigi : do n't get me wrong . i 'm not expecting to become the next ... twombly or richter , whoever they are . but today , i -- i got a grant that 's gon na pay for most of my school expenses . cristian : congratulations . gigi : thanks . you know , there was a part of me that almost did n't want to get it , so then i would n't have to come here . cristian : believe me , i -- i get that . gigi : but if i had n't gotten it , then i never would 've gotten the chance to see what i can do and ... figure out who i can be . [ scene_break ] rex : actually , kelly is paying me plenty . and gigi just won a grant to help pay for school , so ... clint : then it would be a shame if that fell through . happens all the time . rex : what are you saying ? [ scene_break ] nora : honestly , i think that clint and inez would make a really cute couple . bo : and i think that we 've had about enough talk about clint and inez , so let 's talk about you , honey . nora : okay . bo : how was court today ? did they sentence hannah ? nora : uh , yes , as an outpatient . in marty 's custody . bo : really ? how 'd that happen ? nora : marty made a very compelling case , and i think it was a good decision . bo : you do ? nora : mm - hmm . hannah 's a very troubled girl . and she was very regretful of her mistakes . and i think she needs help , not prison . in some way , i think the justice system got it exactly right . bo : and in no small part thanks to you . red ... nora : yes ? bo : you are the greatest .

[ brody grunting ] cristian : you all right , man ? so who are you trying to kill ? you got a beef with ford ? brody : that guy should be in jail . cristian : for what ? brody : obstruction of justice . he lied about who attacked him . innocent people suffered , yourself included . cristian : which is why i do n't care much for him . listen , are you done with the bag ? layla 's 3,000 miles away . i 've got my own frustrations to work out . brody : it 's all yours . i 've had enough . [ scene_break ] langston : i am so sorry that all of this happened to you . jessica : it turned out all right . brody and i are fine . actually , matter of fact ... langston : oh , my god , is that -- jessica : yes , we 're getting married and we 're having a baby , you know , no matter what . langston : that is -- that 's great . jessica : yeah . it takes a really amazing person to forgive someone like that . dorian : why , jessica . what a lovely surprise . it 's me . i just a little -- whatever . you look positively glowing . congratulations to you and ... the baby 's father . jessica : thanks . very nice seeing you . dorian : nice seeing you . jessica : bye , langston . langston : congrats . dorian : bye . here , open this . open it . langston : oh . okay . dorian : ha ha ha ha . langston : dorian , it 's beautiful . blair and kelly have ones just like it . dorian : i gave them each one . it 's a family tradition . black onyx . protects the spirit . wear it in good health , darling , because you 've once again proven you 're a true cramer . [ scene_break ] clint : i 'm simply saying that things happen . rex : do they ? clint : technical problems . grant funding gets rescinded . awards get reassigned . lord , it would be such a pity if gigi had to drop out of school . rex : yes , it would . clint : of course , if that were to happen , the money i 'm offering you would allow gigi to keep living her dream .

[ scene_break ] clint : just think -- gigi could go to school full - time . she could quit her job as a waitress . you could easily pay for shane 's medication . hell , if you invest the money correctly , you could even pay for shane 's college education . and i got people who could help you with that . rex : [ sighs ] if i keep vickers ' whereabouts a secret . clint : and the beauty part of it ... is that you would n't have to lift a finger . rex : i need some air . clint : why do n't you do more than that ? why do n't you -- why do n't you sleep on it , rex ? you 're a good man , and i firmly believe that in the end , you will do what 's best for everyone .

[ scene_break ] ford : hey , dean mackenzie . i need to talk to you . dean mackenzie : i thought i asked you to pack up your office , mr. ford . ford : i know , but i need to explain . dean : there 's nothing to explain . you were having an inappropriate relationship with a student , for which you were dismissed . ford : right . but it was n't my fault . [ scene_break ] dorian : do n't you just adore retail therapy ? there is nothing like it for lifting the spirits , n'est - ce pas ? langston : so you 're feeling better ? dorian : ahh . beaucoup better . ha ha ha ! langston : great . so you can lose the sunglasses , the hat , and the wig , right ? dorian : sweetheart , i 'm incognito . you forget i 'm the mayor of this town and therefore always on constant public display . i certainly do n't want to be asked any questions about that catastrophe that was supposed to be my wedding day . langston : so dressing like you 're in an old spy movie is your way of flying under the radar . dorian : ha ha ha ha . actually , i 'm doing this also because i want to make up for my terrible neglect of you . so , ahem , how were your first few days at college ? do you like your courses ? what about your professors ? langston : they were ... interesting . dorian : how ? langston : one of my professors was supposed to be ford . dorian : ford ? ford . that perv is not fit to paper train a poodle . langston : well , do n't worry . he wo n't be teaching my class anymore . or any other class , for that matter , thanks to me .

[ scene_break ] gigi : yes , i 'm a waitress and a student . you can be both . zenobia : professor vega , i 've seen your work here . non - figurative pieces seem strongly influenced by twombly . would n't you agree ? boy : ha ha . twombly . ulrich simon . artist . i think your work far more resembles richter than twombly . cristian : wow . well , either way , i 'm -- i 'm flattered . but let 's keep in mind this is an intro level course . it 's designed to help students find their own voices through art . so please , grab an easel . i want to get started with getting a sense of why everyone 's here . mr. simon . ulrich : because it 's a pre - req for every art class at l.u . i already spent the summer at the konigliche akademie der kunst . in vienna . cristian : ms. parker ? zenobia : i 'm doing a cross - disciplinary project -- fine art and graphic media . cristian : ms. morasco ? gigi : i 'm here because ... gigi : i 'm here because someone that i care a lot about believes in me . [ scene_break ] rex : you told me you hated vickers because he chased kim off . is that how you get back at him , by having him thrown in a foreign prison ? but then again , if you do have him shipped off to a prison the day he 's supposed to marry dorian , it makes it look like he 's left her at the altar , again , and then you stuck it to dorian for trying to take down b.e . am i warm ? clint : oh , rex , i do n't know whether to be entertained or flattered . now , i may be a powerful man , but even i do n't have the pull to put an innocent man behind bars in a foreign prison . rex : so are you saying david 's innocent ? or you are ? clint : there 's been an outstanding warrant on david vickers for years for a variety of unsavory crimes that he committed in morocco . now , all i did was tell the authorities where they could find him . [ scene_break ] nora : you were laughing at clint ? bo : no , not at him . i was -- i was just explaining to inez my relationship with clint and how rough things have been on him since pa died . inez : not that that 's funny . but -- bo : well , and that 's when i brought up that sometimes he will -- inez : how he deals with frustration . bo : yeah , by waving his shotgun around . no , it 's like when he threatened to shoot david at our wedding . and you and me , when he found out that we were back together again , it 's like -- inez : but it 's okay because he 's a buchanan and they learn how to fire guns when they 're babies . bo : right . so inez should not take clint 's bluster too seriously . nora : and that was funny . bo : well ... inez : well , it seemed funny at the time because he was just saying what a great guy clint is and ... salt of the earth . that 's what you said . bo : exactly . and he is . you know , even when he decides to pull out the old 12-gauge . nora : well , clint is a great guy who also happens to care a lot about his family . bo : yes . inez : i can understand that . [ scene_break ] james : so did you score another free guest pass or something ? nate : i take as many of those as i can get . james : i hear ya . i work out here for free , too . well , as bobby 's guest . in fact , i 'm actually gon na be meeting him here soon , so ... nate : listen , i 'm not gon na run away from him . anyways , we kind of had sort of a little breakthrough . james : how 'd that happen ? nate : we discovered we 're both film freaks . i mean , it 's not like we bonded as brothers or anything , but he does n't hate me as much now , and i learned that there 's a lot more to him than i thought . james : ha . not a whole lot , though . nate : ha . he -- he told me what happened with his job . that really sucks . having to give up something he cares about so much . [ scene_break ] brody : that 's right . i 'm the father . inga : good to meet you . jess , i 'll see you next class . jessica : i am so sorry to put you in that position . brody : what position ? we 're engaged . you 're pregnant . people are gon na assume i 'm the father . jessica : which in all likelihood you probably are . it 's just -- you know , i know how tough this must be for you and how hard you 're trying to be okay with it . brody : jess , i am okay with it . i meant what i said to your teacher . i 'm that baby 's father , even if the dna says it 's ford 's . [ scene_break ] ford : no , i 'm not saying it 's langston 's fault . dean mackenzie : then whose fault is it ? ford : all i meant was ... i 'm human . and i made a mistake . but i am a good teacher . and if you hire me back , i can be an inspiration to those students . dean mackenzie : by inviting them into your bedroom ? i 'm sorry . the decision to fire you stands . [ scene_break ] dorian : oh , i could barely stand waiting . thank you , darling . and then ? langston : well , ford kept saying he realized what he did to me was wrong . dorian : ha ha . too little , too late . langston : yeah , well , he promised me that he would change , that he would try and be a better person for me . and like an idiot , i was about to forgive him . until i found out that he slept with jessica . dorian : jessica ? langston : jessica buchanan . dorian : no , that could n't be possible . how could he po -- wait a minute . when did -- when did this purported incident take place ? langston : the night of prom . dorian : oh . when jessica still thought she was a high school student . langston : when i found out what he did to her , i was so angry and so hurt that all i wanted to do was hurt him back . so i did . dorian : how ? langston : well , i showed up to his apartment and i told him that i wanted him back . and while we were kissing , i left a camera running . and i handed the pictures over to the dean . dorian : and ford was fired . langston . oh ! i have never been prouder of you than i am at this moment . congratulations ! ha ha ha ha ! [ scene_break ] rex : so the moroccan police finding david just moments before he was supposed to marry dorian , that was a ... coincidence ? clint : oh , yeah . sure it was . rex : uh - huh . well , at least bo will know what happened to his son . clint : no . you 're not gon na call bo . [ scene_break ] langston : oh , i 'm glad at least one of us is proud of what i did . dorian : and you 're not ? langston : well , i 'm starting to feel a little bad about it . dorian : what ? after -- after what that man did to you ? he lied to you , he betrayed you . langston : yeah , i know , dorian . i was there . but , i mean , i 'm starting to think that maybe he really was starting to change . dorian : aww . and now you went and messed up his life . good ! he messed up yours . he got what he deserved . langston : yeah , kelly told me your advice would be do n't get mad , get even . dorian : exactly . i mean , when a cramer woman gets hurt , does she crawl off and lick her wounds ? langston : no . dorian : no , she does not . she fights back . and she gets the s.o.b . fired if she can . why , goodness gracious , i would get david fired , if he only had a job . i do n't even know where that snake has slithered off to . [ scene_break ] rex : why would n't i call bo ? i mean , after everything he 's done for me , the least i can do is let him know where his son is . clint : bo 's like a father to you , is n't he ? so do you really want to drag him through the mud and humiliate him ? rex : how would i be doing that , exactly ? clint : well , think about it , rex . david vickers is a two - bit con man who , given the opportunity , would drain my family dry and destroy everything asa buchanan ever built . now , do you really want the whole world to know that the police commissioner 's son is this low - life criminal locked up in a foreign prison ? rex : i think bo can handle it . clint : maybe . but could bo handle arresting you for burglary ? [ scene_break ] bo : i was telling inez that clint cares about his family . inez : excuse me . i 'm just gon na -- i have to go freshen up . bo : sure . nora : so ... how did the subject of clint come up at all ? i mean , you did n't start out by saying , `` hey , did you hear about my gun - toting brother `` ? bo : no . clint and inez were here together when i walked in . nora : well , i do n't -- i do n't see him here . all i saw when i walked in was the two of you sitting here with your heads together . bo : ah , clint had to leave . nora : and then you started trashing clint to inez ? bo : i was n't trashing clint . i was just trying to give inez a little insight into who he is . nora : why ? are you trying to talk inez out of seeing clint ? [ scene_break ] clint : how do you think bo 's gon na feel when he finds out that , on top of breaking several laws , you tried to get matthew , bo 's own son , to cover for you ? not to mention what happens to kelly . rex : no . all kelly did was hire me to find david . clint : find david . by breaking into the offices of her son 's family 's business . you know , i 'm gon na have to get kevin involved in this , and i might even have to file criminal charges against kelly . rex : okay , yes , she hired me to find information , but my methods , she had -- clint : your methods . your stamp was all over your methods . does n't take a genius to figure out that kelly was the one that stole the security card that enabled you to gain illegal access to this office . and then there 's gigi to think about . [ scene_break ] cristian : you do n't have to draw the objects , but whatever you choose to draw should speak for you -- the artist -- and to the viewer , of course . begin . [ scene_break ] brody : jess , you okay ? jessica : yeah . i am . i 'm just -- i 'm so lucky to have you . no , i mean it . you have been so amazing through this whole thing and i know it ca n't be easy ... not knowing . brody : hey . when i put that ring on your finger , i made a commitment to you and to our life together as a family . that 's everything i need to know . you sure you 're okay ? jessica : yeah . i am . actually , i think that i have a craving for a decaf mocha cappuccino . ha ha . brody : seems like a good sign . jessica : you want to join me ? brody : thanks , but i 'm gon na get a few rounds on the bag . i 'll catch up with you later . jessica : sounds good . um , i love you . brody : i love you , too . [ scene_break ] ford : should i ... grab some gloves so we can have it out ? bo : i was n't trying to talk inez out of seeing clint . i was trying to encourage her to give him a chance . nora : by touting clint 's gunplay ? bo : it just came up . nora : how does something like that just come up ? bo : with clint ? nora : oh , point taken . bo : yes . plus , i think that inez is perfectly capable of forming her own opinions . nora : well , i certainly hope so . besides , i think it would be great if clint started to see someone . and from what little i know of inez , i think she could use the distraction , too . [ scene_break ] nate : mom ? inez : hi . i was trying you at home . where are you ? nate : i 'm working out ... with james . inez : is he okay ? i know that he had a rough day . nate : yeah , yeah , he 's fine . he 's just waiting for his brother -- our brother , i guess . i 'll be home soon . mom ? inez : um , i 'll see you at home . have a good workout . nate : i will . bye . sounds like our mom 's worried about you . james : yeah . i ran into her before . nate : did something happen ? james : i was upset about , you know , bobby getting fired and on top of that , i found out this grant i wanted to help pay for tuition was n't available anymore . and since bobby does n't work at the college now , i -- nate : ca n't go . james : right . so i was thinking , it 's all over . college . everything . and that 's when i ran into her . nate : what did you say ? james : i do n't know . uh , you know , she was trying to be helpful , like a mother 's supposed to be . nate : yeah . yeah . james : and i blew her off . and i -- i told her she was n't my mom . and i really think i hurt her feelings . nate : it 's not your fault . james : how can you say that ? nate : because ... families are inherited . relationships are earned . all right , that 's a movie line , but it 's true , okay ? you and me . we 're brothers . but you and ford ? you guys are friends . [ scene_break ] brody : as much as i 'd love to knock you flat on your ass again , it 's over . jessica and i are getting married . we 're having a baby . ford : so even if the kid does turn out to be mine -- brody : it 's not . ford : okay . i get it . whatever happens , you 're the father . brody : exactly . and if you try to make any problems for us -- ford : hey , do n't worry about me . i got plenty of problems of my own . [ scene_break ] langston : i do n't know . i think i may have gone a little too far . dorian : as far as i 'm concerned , you did n't go far enough . langston : but ford is n't the only one i hurt . i mean , james -- dorian : james ? james , the one who kidnapped starr and nearly got her killed ? langston : because ford got fired , james ca n't go to l.u . and he ca n't afford to go anywhere else . so now , because of me , james might not even get to go to college at all . dorian : when ford kissed you , he knew that you were still his student , did he not ? langston : yeah . dorian : therefore , he brought everything upon himself and james . you have nothing to blame yourself for . langston : well , it does n't feel like that . dorian : darling , the only one you should be concerned about is you . and sometimes there is collateral damage . [ scene_break ] rex : what does gigi have to do with anything ? clint : you know , it was kimberly that kept me up to speed with the two of you . and i must say , you 've had a tough time of it . rex : no thanks to kim . clint : you 're trying to rebuild the relationship , but how long would that relationship last , do you think , if gigi had to visit you in prison ? and shane ? oh , you being in prison ... how would that affect your son ? so ... we are just going to forget that you ever came across this . for gigi 's sake . [ scene_break ] cristian : time 's up . let 's see how you decided to interpret these objects . good . good , but you can use ... gigi : wow . that 's so realistic . ulrich : thanks . could 've been more precise if i 'd had more time . cristian : that 's very well - rendered . ulrich : thank you . cristian : but what is it about ? ulrich : it 's purely esthetic . i drew what i saw . cristian : well , if i wanted a representation of what i can see with the naked eye , i could 've taken a photograph . what about you ... ms . morasco ? gigi : yes ? cristian : why did you draw what you did ? gigi : i do n't know . uh ... i guess i was thinking about how life changes and how the past is pushed into the background sometimes , but it 's still there , lingering . cristian : very good . a technician sees what 's there and reproduces it . an artist sees what is n't there ... and creates it . very good . [ scene_break ] rex : you know what i 'm thinking , clint ? you can call bo and have him cart me off to jail . hell , it would n't be the first time . but then this picture of david would end up as evidence . bo and dorian would find out where david is ... and how he got there . but then again , maybe i 'm wrong and you did n't do anything illegal to make him disappear . but if you did , kidnapping is a federal offense . you could end up in more trouble than i am . so i think i 'll take my chances with bo . see how he wants to handle this . clint : well played , balsom . you 're a very persistent young man . but i think you 're gon na be changing your mind . rex : why would i do that ? clint : because ... i 'm prepared to make you an offer that you ca n't refuse . rex : what , should i expect a horse 's head in my bed ? clint : no , no , nothing like that . how 's business been at ultraviolet ? rex : fine . clint : even with profits down for the third consecutive quarter this year ? rex : how do you know that ? clint : must be hard lately to pay for shane 's asthma medication . right ? i know how much it costs to raise a kid . at least i know how much it costs to raise your kid . rex : you had me investigated ? clint : you were investigating me . it 's just smart business to stay on top of things . anyway , you must be under tremendous pressure to cover your expenses . but i can just make your troubles go away . and gigi 's , too . you know , a little bird told me that gigi 's going back to school . rex : what if she is ? clint : well , i 'm just saying that it , you know , must be hard to do on the salary of a waitress . and undoubtedly , you would want to help her with that . that could seal your relationship if you could do that for her , right ? rex : i do n't need to seal anything . clint : are you sure about that ? you and gigi are not living together , so things must still be a little fragile , like a proverbial house of cards . and we both know how easily those can be knocked down . rex : what 's your point ? clint : whatever kelly 's paying you ... i 'll double it .

man : five , four , three , two -- marcie : this is marcie walsh , and i 'm coming to you live from llanview university . today i 'll be kicking off a new show that i 'll be hosting , and it 's called `` bridge the gap . `` and with each show , we 're going to introduce a topic , and we 'll invite people who have -- do n't exactly see eye to eye on the topic to discuss it . we 'll see if they can work out their differences and bridge the gap between them . i 'd like to start by welcoming my first two guests . they 're two students here at llanview university . we have greg johnson and kim watts . and i 'd also like to introduce dr. rae cummings . she 's an adjunct professor here at the university and also a very well known and respected relationship expert . but right now we 're going to take a little break , but we 'll be back in a minute to see what our guests think about the topic and discuss it . trust me , it 's a hot one . [ scene_break ] roxy : take these ; hide them . i do n't trust myself . natalie : what are these , christmas gifts ? roxy : well , you got them . they were in the garage . i almost tore them open with my teeth . natalie : i did n't buy anything . i have n't even gone shopping yet . roxy : yeah ? then who 's the elf ? natalie : cristian . [ scene_break ] dorian : you sounded so upset on the phone , carlotta . what 's wrong ? carlotta : i just got back from the airport . you know , i went to puerto rico to see adriana . dorian : how is she ? carlotta : i did n't see her . she 's run away from her school . dorian : oh , no . carlotta : and , of course , they 're searching for her , but so far they have no idea where she could be . [ scene_break ] paul : hey , river . what are you up to ? [ scene_break ] antonio : i do n't buy it . i just do n't buy it . i mean , why change his pattern for this victim ? it 's messy . evangeline : well , the commissioner had the idea that he was rushed and got sloppy , but , oh , gosh , this last murder just hits me a little too close to home . antonio : the fact that she was a witness in your civil case ? figure it was a coincidence , unrelated to the homicide . evangeline : well , the police will let us know . antonio : well , you know , i got to tell you , evangeline , i 'm not going to sit around and wait till they come up with something . evangeline : antonio , did n't i hear the commissioner warn you to steer clear of this ? antonio : yeah , yeah , yeah , yeah . you know -- it 's just that i keep going over this thing in my head , and -- i stayed up last night going over all the information on all the victims , and -- well , there was something that hit me . evangeline : something the police did n't catch ? antonio : maybe . it 's a stretch , right , but if i 'm right , it scares the hell out of me . [ scene_break ] john : no sign of sexual assault . if it 's the music box killer , he stuck to that part of his pattern , but i 'm skeptical . nora : john , is a lack of sexual assault unusual for a ritualistic serial killer ? bo : are we really sure that that 's the one that committed this murder ? john : too many details at the scene are off . the red scarf instead of the red leotard , the cheap music box with no ballerina in it . bo : the victim had blood on her cheeks instead of makeup -- nora : john , what 's this ? john : bo found this at the docks near where jen was assaulted . we think the killer must have dropped it when he was getting away . nora : i 've seen a bag like this before . [ scene_break ] [ music plays ] gabrielle : oh , hello . al : hi . i 'm michael mcbain . we met at the hospital . gabrielle : yes . i remember . dr. mcbain , though , now , is n't it ? al : i 'm a first - year resident at llanview hospital . gabrielle : i do recall . i want to thank you for those kind words that you gave me in angel square , dr. mcbain . al : please , call me michael . i just wanted to see if -- if you were okay . gabrielle : i 'm -- i 'm holding up . okay . thank you . thank you for asking . al : you know , i -- i knew al a little . i thought you should know that he always spoke very highly of you and his father . gabrielle : thank you . i do n't mean to be rude . i have an appointment .

[ scene_break ] marcie : today we 're talking about campus date rape , and i 'd actually like to start with you , dr. cummings , because i recently read a study that said more than half of the rapes that were reported to police are committed by a friend or an acquaintance of the victim . is that true ? rae : unfortunately , marcie , that is true . and that 's just reported rapes . you know , sadly enough , it 's even more prevalent on college campuses . did you know that it is estimated that up to 95 % of rapes on college campuses are committed by someone that the victim knew ? marcie : no , i did n't know that . so , is that the actual definition of date rape ? it 's an acquaintance or a friend of the victim ? rae : it 's defined generally as a sexual act forced upon the victim by someone he or she knew . marcie : i think that is actually an important clarification . and i 'd like to turn now to our two student guests . we have greg johnson and kim watts . and why do n't we start with you , kim ? kim : well , personally , i think most of these so - called rapes could easily be avoided . greg : excuse me . so - called rapes ? kim : i just do n't see how you can call it a rape , the way these girls go around picking up guys , hanging at the kind of parties they do . i mean , frat stuff and all , drinking and taking drugs -- greg : wait a minute -- kim : these girls are so out of it , they do n't even know what 's happening to them . greg : since when is being under the influence an open invitation to sex ? rae : actually , in some states [ scene_break ] evangeline : scares the hell out of you ? then i 'm not sure i want to hear about this discovery of yours . antonio : all right . it sounds crazy . evangeline : all right , i 'm listening . antonio : all right , the first victim , susan gelman , she was a stripper at a bar in south jersey . evangeline : right . antonio : right . the second victim , lap dancer at a club in atlantic city . noralyn atkins . evangeline : okay , so the connection 's a line of work , but some of the other victims were totally different professions -- antonio : wait a second . hear me out , okay ? all right , i know it 's a stretch , right , but susan gelman , she was jewish . evangeline : so you 're thinking it 's a hate crime . but the second victim was n't jewish . antonio : i 'm going to get a little more specific than that . the first victim was jewish . second victim was named noralyn atkins . we both know someone named nora who is jewish . [ scene_break ] bo : where did you see this bag ? nora : troy had one . bo : are you sure ? nora : positive . john : who 's troy ? bo : troy maciver . he was a doctor here in llanview . he had a breakdown , ended up killing a woman who worked in his hospital because she threatened to expose him for sexual harassment . nora : almost killed gabrielle , too . bo : yeah . yeah , he was sick . and he had a thing for nora here . john : you think this is the same bag ? nora : well , it 's the same label . it 's the same lining , same type . john : any way this bag belongs to this guy maciver . nora : no , there 's absolutely no way it 's his . troy maciver is locked up in the maximum - security mental ward of statesville prison .

[ scene_break ] antonio : i do n't buy it . i just do n't buy it . i mean , why change his pattern for this victim ? it 's messy . evangeline : well , the commissioner had the idea that he was rushed and got sloppy , but , oh , gosh , this last murder just hits me a little too close to home . antonio : the fact that she was a witness in your civil case ? figure it was a coincidence , unrelated to the homicide . evangeline : well , the police will let us know . antonio : well , you know , i got to tell you , evangeline , i 'm not going to sit around and wait till they come up with something . evangeline : antonio , did n't i hear the commissioner warn you to steer clear of this ? antonio : yeah , yeah , yeah , yeah . you know -- it 's just that i keep going over this thing in my head , and -- i stayed up last night going over all the information on all the victims , and -- well , there was something that hit me . evangeline : something the police did n't catch ? antonio : maybe . it 's a stretch , right , but if i 'm right , it scares the hell out of me . [ scene_break ] john : no sign of sexual assault . if it 's the music box killer , he stuck to that part of his pattern , but i 'm skeptical . nora : john , is a lack of sexual assault unusual for a ritualistic serial killer ? bo : are we really sure that that 's the one that committed this murder ? john : too many details at the scene are off . the red scarf instead of the red leotard , the cheap music box with no ballerina in it . bo : the victim had blood on her cheeks instead of makeup -- nora : john , what 's this ? john : bo found this at the docks near where jen was assaulted . we think the killer must have dropped it when he was getting away . nora : i 've seen a bag like this before .

[ scene_break ] marcie : today we 're talking about campus date rape , and i 'd actually like to start with you , dr. cummings , because i recently read a study that said more than half of the rapes that were reported to police are committed by a friend or an acquaintance of the victim . is that true ? rae : unfortunately , marcie , that is true . and that 's just reported rapes . you know , sadly enough , it 's even more prevalent on college campuses . did you know that it is estimated that up to 95 % of rapes on college campuses are committed by someone that the victim knew ? marcie : no , i did n't know that . so , is that the actual definition of date rape ? it 's an acquaintance or a friend of the victim ? rae : it 's defined generally as a sexual act forced upon the victim by someone he or she knew . marcie : i think that is actually an important clarification . and i 'd like to turn now to our two student guests . we have greg johnson and kim watts . and why do n't we start with you , kim ? kim : well , personally , i think most of these so - called rapes could easily be avoided . greg : excuse me . so - called rapes ? kim : i just do n't see how you can call it a rape , the way these girls go around picking up guys , hanging at the kind of parties they do . i mean , frat stuff and all , drinking and taking drugs -- greg : wait a minute -- kim : these girls are so out of it , they do n't even know what 's happening to them . greg : since when is being under the influence an open invitation to sex ? rae : actually , in some states [ scene_break ] evangeline : scares the hell out of you ? then i 'm not sure i want to hear about this discovery of yours . antonio : all right . it sounds crazy . evangeline : all right , i 'm listening . antonio : all right , the first victim , susan gelman , she was a stripper at a bar in south jersey . evangeline : right . antonio : right . the second victim , lap dancer at a club in atlantic city . noralyn atkins . evangeline : okay , so the connection 's a line of work , but some of the other victims were totally different professions -- antonio : wait a second . hear me out , okay ? all right , i know it 's a stretch , right , but susan gelman , she was jewish . evangeline : so you 're thinking it 's a hate crime . but the second victim was n't jewish . antonio : i 'm going to get a little more specific than that . the first victim was jewish . second victim was named noralyn atkins . we both know someone named nora who is jewish . [ scene_break ] bo : where did you see this bag ? nora : troy had one . bo : are you sure ? nora : positive . john : who 's troy ? bo : troy maciver . he was a doctor here in llanview . he had a breakdown , ended up killing a woman who worked in his hospital because she threatened to expose him for sexual harassment . nora : almost killed gabrielle , too . bo : yeah . yeah , he was sick . and he had a thing for nora here . john : you think this is the same bag ? nora : well , it 's the same label . it 's the same lining , same type . john : any way this bag belongs to this guy maciver . nora : no , there 's absolutely no way it 's his . troy maciver is locked up in the maximum - security mental ward of statesville prison .

[ sighs ] you know , your uncle has a lot of admirable qualities . but consistency ? not one of them . now , i asked you to coffee to remind you of something . like john abbott with jabot , my father leftme a legacy . and that 's fenmore 's . and i 'm hoping that i can count on you , the board 's undisputed queen of shopping ... [ abby chuckles ] ... to help phyllis and me emphasize what a key asset my brand is . abby : well , i 'm -- i 'm more concerned about billy at the moment , but , um ... okay . yeah , i - i agree . lauren : thank you . all right . give nick and sharon my best tonight . abby : i will . bye , lauren . lauren : bye . abby : [ sighs ] rey : hey , uh , thank you . for all the heavy lifting . lola : i know , right ?

ashley : yeah , i 'm still stuck on the lack of concern you have for your uncle . kyle : i think people are cutting him way too much slack . including you . he has the nerve to call you power - hungry after what he 's pulled ? why should n't you want the top slot at jabot ? you have five times the experience and 10 times the skill . ashley : thank you so much for the peer review . and thank you more for not bringing it up at the board meeting . kyle : i would n't kick the guy while he 's down . and on his way out . but admit it . you 're just as satisfied with the outcome of that meeting as i am . ashley : you know , kyle , my brother has a horrible gambling addiction . it 's so bad that he actually stole from his own family . so , see , actually , i am sick about it . kyle : if you want to sideline work and make family your prime focus , you 're allowed . but not if you want to sit there . if aunt traci 's rein goes as planned , jabot is about to become a meritocracy again . and anybody who wants to sit in that chair will have to fight for it . abby : so , you and your brother are spending time together . not so common . arturo : mm ... abby : did you and rey have some sort of breakthrough ? arturo : i would n't go that far . i just wanted some answers about his plans in genoa city . he was pretty laid - back about it . tight - lipped , as usual . how was your board meeting ? abby : hellish . family battles are exhausting . arturo : hmm . no kidding . abby : you know , sometimes i wish i could just go live on my own private island . arturo : mnh - mnh . you ca n't do that , because you 'd miss me too much . abby : [ chuckles ] well , i would take you along . it would n't be that private . arturo : private enough for , uh , no bathing suits on the beach ?

abby : [ laughs ] billy : [ sighs ] you did n't have to come . phyllis : well , in case you 're still fuzzy on it , i will always have your back . billy : i am completely un - fuzzy . phyllis : good . first thing tomorrow , i will reimburse jabot with the money from jack . billy : yeah , now that ashley pulled off her coup , i 'm sure she 'll unlock the accounts . unless she wants to really go for it and send me to prison . phyllis : that would be bad for the brand . billy : [ scoffs ] yeah , and so am i. i 'm sure they 'll demand a name change . which is fine by me after everything i 've been through . i want nothing to do with anything abbott . jack : too bad . you are part of this family , and we will always look out for you . billy : like you did today ? jack : yes , actually . and every day for as long as you need it . deal with it . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . rey : for you . thank you for helping me . and for getting arturito to pitch in . lola : i was just happy to see you and arturo together . like normal brothers . it does n't have to be a one - time thing , though . rey : yeah . we 'll see . lola : should we unpack ? set up your new place ? rey : no . you 've helped enough . i 'll handle the rest . i 'll see you soon . mwah ! thank you . lola : bye , rey . kyle : hello . lola : hi . kyle : this day just keeps getting better . lola : better than you know . i have cupcakes . want one ? kyle : of course . lola : tell me about your day . kyle : thanks . well , a long - term project of mine came together at work exactly as i hoped . there may even be a promotion in it for me . lola : heh . it 's your family 's company . they 'd be rude not to . kyle : rude and crazy . how 's your day been ? lola : [ clicks tongue ] sort of amazing . something happened that i 've been hoping would for , like , years . kyle : congratulations . let 's celebrate , then . uh , tonight . lola : i can't . already have plans . kyle : oh . okay . lola : what 's with the face ? you just assumed that i would be free ? kyle : i 'd never assume an -- lola : good , because i have friends and a family and a pretty full social life . and that truck ? not a hobby . a business . a very demanding one . sometimes i work 16 hours straight . with no interns . kyle : i did n't mean to imply that you -- lola : if you say so . look , i do n't want to fight about it , okay ? i am free tomorrow night . kyle : tomorrow ? lola : where we 'll be 24 hours from now ? kyle : i 'm familiar with it . i 'm ... just busy . that 's when i go to the no - kill shelter and shampoo the cats . jack : thanks . put it on my tab , please . billy : do n't do that , please , jack . jack : it 's already done . unless you want to put it on your tab with me . right under the $ 250k i loaned you when i thought your life was in jeopardy . you two could have been a little more forthcoming with the facts . phyllis : jack , we wanted to keep the awful reality a secret . the point of your generous loan was to undo the jabot situation before anyone found out . our intentions were good . jack : taking advantage of john abbott 's legacy and getting away with it . yes , that was noble and inspirational . billy : look , jack gets to say whatever he wants . anyone loaning me a quarter of a million dollars gets to pull the filter off and rip me any way they want . jack : that is not what i am after . billy : well , i hope you 're not looking for a repayment program just yet . jack : all i am looking for is a commitment on your part that you will keep your promise and get the help you need in treatment . billy : yes , sir . whatever you say . jack : i 'm gon na need your help to make this happen . phyllis : absolutely . you can count on me . jack : good . billy , your family loves you , and we will do everything we can to help you quit this again . billy : okay . thank you . thank you for getting jack off my butt . phyllis : that 's not why i said it . jack 's right . you need to be in a treatment facility . phyllis : if you tell me you 're going to rehab tomorrow , then i believe you . billy : well , that 's nice . i guess i should be grateful that you do n't think i 'm stringing everyone along . phyllis : i just do n't understand all this anger that you have , and why it 's directed at me . billy : it 's not . not completely . i do n't like what i see happening between you and jack . phyllis : which would be ? jack : well , this morning , you ask him for a loan . and then he comes by today , making sure that you follow through with me going to rehab . it 's like you 're forming an alliance . phyllis : i think it 's about how much we both love you . billy : you might be thinking that , but jack could be reading something differently . phyllis : i doubt that . billy : really ? i saw the look he gave you . you did n't see it ? phyllis : you 're right . because of the history jack has with his addiction . i played a very large role in getting him off opioids . so there was a look . but it was saying that he trusts me to get you past this . the question is , do you ? billy : how do you ask me that ? every morning , i wake up , and i 'm amazed that you 're still there . after the mess that i 've made . phyllis : i 'm not going anywhere . not when you get back from rehab or when you go back to jabot . i 'm gon na be here for you . billy : [ scoffs ] there 's positive thinking and then there 's just delusional , okay ? there 's no way that kyle , ashley , and traci are gon na let me continue working at jabot . phyllis : yes , they will . take away the gambling and you still are the most brilliant chief executive . you think ashley is gon na be completely focused on brainstorms , out - of - the - box thinking ? no . she 's gon na be too busy trying to keep kyle from staging a coup against her . you wait and see . billy : if that little miracle happens , i 'm gon na hire you as vp of sales and marketing .

[ sighs ] you know , your uncle has a lot of admirable qualities . but consistency ? not one of them . now , i asked you to coffee to remind you of something . like john abbott with jabot , my father leftme a legacy . and that 's fenmore 's . and i 'm hoping that i can count on you , the board 's undisputed queen of shopping ...

ashley : yeah , i 'm still stuck on the lack of concern you have for your uncle . kyle : i think people are cutting him way too much slack . including you . he has the nerve to call you power - hungry after what he 's pulled ? why should n't you want the top slot at jabot ? you have five times the experience and 10 times the skill . ashley : thank you so much for the peer review . and thank you more for not bringing it up at the board meeting . kyle : i would n't kick the guy while he 's down . and on his way out . but admit it . you 're just as satisfied with the outcome of that meeting as i am . ashley : you know , kyle , my brother has a horrible gambling addiction . it 's so bad that he actually stole from his own family . so , see , actually , i am sick about it . kyle : if you want to sideline work and make family your prime focus , you 're allowed . but not if you want to sit there . if aunt traci 's rein goes as planned , jabot is about to become a meritocracy again . and anybody who wants to sit in that chair will have to fight for it . abby : so , you and your brother are spending time together . not so common . arturo : mm ... abby : did you and rey have some sort of breakthrough ?

abby : [ laughs ] billy : [ sighs ] you did n't have to come . phyllis : well , in case you 're still fuzzy on it , i will always have your back . billy : i am completely un - fuzzy . phyllis : good . first thing tomorrow , i will reimburse jabot with the money from jack . billy : yeah , now that ashley pulled off her coup , i 'm sure she 'll unlock the accounts . unless she wants to really go for it and send me to prison . phyllis : that would be bad for the brand . billy : [ scoffs ] yeah , and so am i. i 'm sure they 'll demand a name change . which is fine by me after everything i 've been through . i want nothing to do with anything abbott . jack : too bad . you are part of this family , and we will always look out for you . billy : like you did today ? jack : yes , actually . and every day for as long as you need it . deal with it . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . rey : for you . thank you for helping me . and for getting arturito to pitch in . lola : i was just happy to see you and arturo together . like normal brothers . it does n't have to be a one - time thing , though . rey : yeah . we 'll see . lola : should we unpack ?

you just assumed that i would be free ? kyle : i 'd never assume an -- lola : good , because i have friends and a family and a pretty full social life . and that truck ? not a hobby . a business . a very demanding one . sometimes i work 16 hours straight . with no interns . kyle : i did n't mean to imply that you -- lola : if you say so . look , i do n't want to fight about it , okay ? i am free tomorrow night . kyle : tomorrow ? lola : where we 'll be 24 hours from now ? kyle : i 'm familiar with it . i 'm ... just busy . that 's when i go to the no - kill shelter and shampoo the cats . jack : thanks . put it on my tab , please . billy : do n't do that , please , jack . jack : it 's already done . unless you want to put it on your tab with me . right under the $ 250k i loaned you when i thought your life was in jeopardy . you two could have been a little more forthcoming with the facts . phyllis : jack , we wanted to keep the awful reality a secret . the point of your generous loan was to undo the jabot situation before anyone found out . our intentions were good . jack : taking advantage of john abbott 's legacy and getting away with it . yes , that was noble and inspirational . billy : look , jack gets to say whatever he wants . anyone loaning me a quarter of a million dollars gets to pull the filter off and rip me any way they want . jack : that is not what i am after . billy : well , i hope you 're not looking for a repayment program just yet . jack : all i am looking for is a commitment on your part that you will keep your promise and get the help you need in treatment . billy : yes , sir . whatever you say . jack : i 'm gon na need your help to make this happen . phyllis : absolutely . you can count on me . jack : good . billy , your family loves you , and we will do everything we can to help you quit this again . billy : okay . thank you . thank you for getting jack off my butt . phyllis : that 's not why i said it . jack 's right . you need to be in a treatment facility . phyllis : if you tell me you 're going to rehab tomorrow , then i believe you . billy : well , that 's nice . i guess i should be grateful that you do n't think i 'm stringing everyone along . phyllis : i just do n't understand all this anger that you have , and why it 's directed at me . billy : it 's not . not completely . i do n't like what i see happening between you and jack . phyllis : which would be ? jack : well , this morning , you ask him for a loan . and then he comes by today , making sure that you follow through with me going to rehab . it 's like you 're forming an alliance . phyllis : i think it 's about how much we both love you . billy : you might be thinking that , but jack could be reading something differently . phyllis : i doubt that . billy : really ? i saw the look he gave you . you did n't see it ? phyllis : you 're right . because of the history jack has with his addiction . i played a very large role in getting him off opioids . so there was a look . but it was saying that he trusts me to get you past this . the question is , do you ? billy : how do you ask me that ? every morning , i wake up , and i 'm amazed that you 're still there . after the mess that i 've made . phyllis : i 'm not going anywhere . not when you get back from rehab or when you go back to jabot . i 'm gon na be here for you . billy : [ scoffs ] there 's positive thinking and then there 's just delusional , okay ? there 's no way that kyle , ashley , and traci are gon na let me continue working at jabot . phyllis : yes , they will . take away the gambling and you still are the most brilliant chief executive . you think ashley is gon na be completely focused on brainstorms , out - of - the - box thinking ? no . she 's gon na be too busy trying to keep kyle from staging a coup against her . you wait and see . billy : if that little miracle happens , i 'm gon na hire you as vp of sales and marketing . 'cause you are one hot , persuasive woman . phyllis : well , then , i 'm going to give something a shot . convincing you to be my plus - one to nick and sharon 's wedding tonight ? nick : all right . monkey - suit time . let 's roll . faith : here you go . nick : here we go . sharon : all right . see you guys later . nick : see you there . faith : see ya ! mariah : bye , guys . see ya . faith : bye ! nick : see you soon ! sharon : okay . [ sighs ] um ... well , i have to finish my makeup . mariah : okay . do you need help ? sharon : stay down here , relax . i wo n't be long . faith : okay . [ chuckles ] mariah : hey . you excited about the wedding ? faith : yeah . totally super - excited . mariah : you know , it 's okay if you 're not . 'cause i myself am not the biggest fan of waiting and waiting for the ceremony , and then having to shriek and go nuts when the bride throws the bouquet while avoiding being trampled by desperate , tipsy ladies . yeah , i could skip that part . faith : [ laughs ] no , i love weddings . i guess i 'm just a bit nervous . mariah : why ? faith : mom and dad are n't very good at being married . to other people , or even each other . but do n't tell them i said that . mariah : no , no . take it to the grave . and if there 's anything that you want to talk about , i 'm here , okay ? faith : it 's just , mom and dad seem so happy now . and i want it to stay that way . but i ca n't get my hopes too high . mariah : why not , sweetie ? faith : because i have before . and it makes it even worse when something bad happens and they , you know ... mariah : break up . faith : i just feel like people should be sure before they get married . like , really , extra , totally super - sure . do n't you think ? mariah : yeah . i completely agree . traci : [ inhales deeply ] [ sighs ] [ sighs ] [ knock on door ] come in ! please ! ashley : [ laughs ] oh , hi . traci : hi . ashley : oh . little different perspective sitting in that chair . traci : oh , my gosh . i should say , i think i 'm gon na have to use this in my next novel .

( sighs ) lord knows the adam you used to be could have never done that , um , but you know what ? that 's okay , because the sharon i used to be could have never walked into the newman boardroom and staked her claim the way that i just did . and that 's something i learned from you , how to defy expectations and disapproval -- not that i 'm giving you all the credit for my transformation . adam : i 'm sure you 're not . sharon : because victor had a lot to do with it , too . the two of you are similar that way . you both make your own rules and take what you want . you 're brazen , and i 've learned a lot from both of you . adam : ( sighs ) and we 've both hurt you . sharon : okay , you want to frame this whole thing as i 'm hurt and i 'm lashing out , a woman scorned and a caricature . well , you know what ? i 'm not gon na let you do that . i 'm a woman finally coming into her own . adam : i doubt dad would see it that way . sharon : really ? i disagree with you . i think that he would be ... very proud if he knew what i was doing -- well , if he knew -- i think he 'd be fine with it . adam : there are a lot of people who are n't fine with this . sharon : who , you and victoria and nick ? adam : no , this goes way beyond family . the board , the banks , wall street -- they will be gunning for you , sharon , and they will be ruthless . sharon : so what ? i can be just as ruthless if need be , something else i learned from you . so do n't bother with your patronizing attitude and your phony concern . ooh , now the real adam 's coming out , and he 's pissed . it 's okay . let it all out . you can just be yourself when you 're with me . i 'm sure it gets tiresome , having to rein it all in and act all lovey - dovey with your pregnant wife . adam : where did you hear that chelsea was pregnant ? [ scene_break ] jack : ( grunting ) kyle : there you go . harder , come on . you are so much stronger than you were just a few weeks ago . jack : ( breathing heavily ) kyle : so , uh , when do you expect nikki back ? jack : i do n't . she left . kyle : she left ? jack : she 's on a campaign to find victor . kyle : i do n't -- two days after the wedding ? jack : yeah , that was kind of my reaction , too . kyle : i am so sorry . jack : thanks . kyle : where did she go ? jack : i do n't know . kyle : you have n't even been in touch ? jack : i 'd made clear what my feelings were before she left -- ohh ! kyle : sorry , sorry . jack : that 's okay . it 's okay . i did n't tell you , i , uh ... i stood at the wedding . kyle : you did ? jack : yeah , nikki and i stood face - to - face as we exchanged our vows , my way of proving to her there was n't anything i would n't do for her . kyle : and then she goes and she does this . jack : i knew there was always gon na be a tie between the two of them , but , i mean , they raised their kids together and -- kyle : no , you 're not defending her . jack : no , i am not . kyle : good . you did n't deserve this . you should n't have to put up with it .

[ scene_break ] sharon : i did n't mean to say that . adam : but you did say it . so someone planted that seed in your head that chelsea might be pregnant , someone who 's possibly trying to mess with you , manipulate you . sharon : that is very interesting . maybe when chelsea dropped that bag with the pregnancy test in it right in front of me , it was intentional . i would n't put it past her . adam : she did n't know what had happened to that test . sharon : is she pregnant ? adam : no . sharon : for the record , adam , i am completely fine with you moving on with chelsea . have all the babies you want . in fact , you might want to have a few extra ones . she has a tendency to give 'em away . adam : you 're not bitter at all , are you ? sharon : the two of you never entered my mind when i made my decision about newman . adam : was it your decision , or was it someone else 's , someone nudging you behind the scenes ? sharon : oh , that 's so insulting . adam : kaplan vs. kaplan , 1963 . it just fell out of the sky and landed in your lap , sharon . the shareholders have a right to know if there is someone pulling your strings . sharon : ( laughs ) you know , that 's funny , that 's really funny coming from you , this attitude you 're taking , because i remember when you were running newman enterprises , and there were all these secret alliances and secret deals and meetings . and now suddenly , you are this big believer in corporate transparency . adam : whoever you 're shielding is playing you , sharon . tucker ? he has his own agenda . his m.o . is he swoops in on people and companies when they 're vulnerable . sharon : mm - hmm . so is yours . so is jack 's . katherine , victor -- every major player in this town got where they are by answering the door when opportunity knocked . i do n't hold that against you , and i certainly do n't care if you hold it against me . i have to protect my own interests . yes , um , i need your help in getting rid of an unwanted guest . thank you . adam : you said that my dad would be proud of your decisions . sharon : i think he would be . adam : is he the one orchestrating this , sharon ? is his disappearance part of the plan ? sharon : no one is `` orchestrating `` me , adam , and no one will , ever again .

( sighs ) lord knows the adam you used to be could have never done that , um , but you know what ? that 's okay , because the sharon i used to be could have never walked into the newman boardroom and staked her claim the way that i just did . and that 's something i learned from you , how to defy expectations and disapproval -- not that i 'm giving you all the credit for my transformation . adam : i 'm sure you 're not . sharon : because victor had a lot to do with it , too . the two of you are similar that way . you both make your own rules and take what you want . you 're brazen , and i 've learned a lot from both of you . adam : ( sighs ) and we 've both hurt you . sharon : okay , you want to frame this whole thing as i 'm hurt and i 'm lashing out , a woman scorned and a caricature . well , you know what ? i 'm not gon na let you do that . i 'm a woman finally coming into her own . adam : i doubt dad would see it that way . sharon : really ? i disagree with you . i think that he would be ... very proud if he knew what i was doing -- well , if he knew -- i think he 'd be fine with it . adam : there are a lot of people who are n't fine with this . sharon : who , you and victoria and nick ? adam : no , this goes way beyond family . the board , the banks , wall street -- they will be gunning for you , sharon , and they will be ruthless . sharon : so what ? i can be just as ruthless if need be , something else i learned from you . so do n't bother with your patronizing attitude and your phony concern . ooh , now the real adam 's coming out , and he 's pissed . it 's okay . let it all out . you can just be yourself when you 're with me . i 'm sure it gets tiresome , having to rein it all in and act all lovey - dovey with your pregnant wife . adam : where did you hear that chelsea was pregnant ?

phyllis : because he led me back to the house and hand - delivered me to the cops . now i might be spending the rest of my life in prison . jack : you 're talking like this is an open - and - shut case . it 's not . paul : jack , phyllis was arrested because the evidence clearly pointed to her committing the crime . jack : there were mitigating circumstances . avery : my sister is not mentally competent . christine : oh , she seems all there to me . avery : okay , we believe she 's suffering from side effects of the medical treatment she received while comatose . she needs a psychiatric evaluation . christine : so file a motion . avery : already done . we 've been granted an emergency hearing . christine : of course you have . because you 're laying the groundwork for an insanity defense . it 's the oldest trick in the book . jack : phyllis is ill . she does not deserve to stand trial . christine : so plead your case . but i will tell a judge that i believe your client coldly and calculatedly tried to kill kelly andrews and that phyllis should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law . victoria : thank you again for such a lovely night . stitch : yeah . this is turning out to be a lovely morning , too . victoria : mm - hmm . ah ... i wish we could , but i ca n't . stitch : ah . kid duty , huh ?

jill : ... i have decided to have faith in him , okay ? cane : ah , ah , ah , ah , that means , basically , you 've decided to look the other way 'cause you need the money . jill : well , we do need the money , okay ? we 've looked into other means of finance , and we 've come up empty . all right ? we have to accept colin 's help . cane : the only reason colin is helping us is 'cause he wants to help himself .

devon : you know how so . they 're gon na know about the blackmail . they 're gon na know you have n't changed , and they 're gon na know everything you 've worked for to get back your wife , your family , your grandkids -- it 'll be gone . colin : you might have a point . devon : and it 's a good point . colin : look , my wife and my son want chancellor back desperately . they may not approve of my methods , but once they 've got their hands on the company , they 'll realize that what i did was for them , over time , of course . you , on the other hand -- you 'll be left to pursue your -- your romance with neil 's wife . here 's what i need . just wire me the money . kelly : i am not still hung up on jack . stitch : okay , phyllis tried to poison you , and you 're more worried about him than you are yourself . yeah , i 'd say you 're still pretty hung up . kelly : i care about him , okay ? that 's all . stitch : we both know it runs deeper than that . and if -- if you ca n't admit it , kelly , you wo n't be able to get passed it . kelly : i accepted the fact that jack chose phyllis . she is the one who ca n't let go . she is the one who has been so obsessed with me . she keeps dragging me back into jack 's life . stitch : okay , okay , i hear you . kelly : i mean , after everything that she has done , including poisoning me , i think it 's reasonable that i could possibly be still worried about jack . that does n't mean i ca n't live without him . what ? just say it . stitch : you fall hard , kelly . you fully commit to people and relationships you care about . kelly : so , what 's wrong with that ? stitch : nothing , until those relationships end , for whatever reason . kelly : you 're completely exaggerating . stitch : am i exaggerating about how you completely fell apart after your marriage ended ? i do n't want you going back to that place . jack : could you two give me a moment alone with phyllis , please ? avery : yes , of course . [ door closes ] phyllis : you can stop pretending . i know that my awakening was very inconvenient for you . jack : inconvenient ? phyllis : yeah , you moved on with kelly . jack : when you came back , the first thing i did was break things off with her to tell her that i loved you . phyllis : yeah , i thought that meant that you were gon na fight for us , and i believed you . jack : i was hoping you would recover , praying every day that you would come back to me . phyllis : and you did n't make that happen . jack : oh , yeah . victor with his drugs that now phyllis : what ? [ chuckles ] were you gon na say `` that made me crazy `` ? that 's what you were gon na say , was n't it ? jack : do n't tell me what i was gon na say . i want to spend my life with you . that 's why i proposed to you . that 's why i 'm here now , fighting for you . phyllis , you have to admit you have not been yourself lately . phyllis : i 'm confused . i 'm confused . i - i do n't know . i do n't know who to trust . i ca n't even trust myself . jack : so trust me . the people that love you . we are all here to make you better . phyllis : i know . will you help me do that , please , jack ? jack : i 'm trying . phyllis : okay , then -- then -- then no hospitals . no doctors . you tell that judge and christine and paul that i am still me . i am the same woman that you fell in love with . baby , you 've got to tell them . jack : the woman i fell in love with woerer life back . phyllis : and that means fairview ? [ door opens ] avery : phyllis , the guard is here to transfer you , if you 're ready . jack : avery and i will be right behind you , okay ? [ sighs ] christine : i look forward to reading your psychiatric evaluation , phyllis . i 'm sure it will be fascinating . victoria : you know , dad , you 've really done right by katherine . and you 've come through for mom , and that 's made a big difference to her . victor : i 'm worried about your mom . when i found out she dropped the baby ... wow . victoria : i know . thank god billy caught her . mom said it was vertigo and dizziness . victor : whatever it was , it worries me a great deal . and your mother is my priority , as are my children and grandchildren . and it may not seem so obvious sometimes , but i 'll do anything to keep my family together . neil : i ca n't leave like this . hilary : wh me what 's bothering you ? please , what 's going on ? neil : for the umpteenth time , okay , i think i 'm just -- hilary : i 'm eveved that you 're hopeful again . okay ? nothing would be more wonderful than you regaining your sight . neil : okay . that 's true . um , since i 'm running out on you to meet with colin , how about i make it up to you and take you out later to celebrate ? how does that sound ? hilary : celebrate what ? neil : the possibility of what lies ahead . i 'll see you later . bye . hilary : neil : to our hopes being rewarded . i finally have my sight back . hilary : i 'm so happy for you , neil . neil : for us . you 've been with me every step of the way . honey , hey , look at me . what is it ? hilary : it 's just been an emotional night . that 's all . neil : do you remember what we promised ? we promised that we 'd be honest with each other at all costs . remember that ? so tell me . hilary : neil , i 've ... there 's someone else . neil : i know . it 's devon , is n't it ? hilary : how did you -- neil : i 've known all along . i felt this connection between the two of you . i just did n't want to believe it , baby . hilary : i 'm sorry . we did n't mean for any of this happen . the way it 's -- neil : no , no , no . i know . i know . and i am not -- i 'm not angry . i just do n't want to hear about it . hilary : what can i do ? neil : just give me some time . alone . hilary : okay . neil : hey , baby ... be happy . and do n't worry . it 's all gon na work out in the end . devon : hey , cane . i came here looking for you . i need your help . cane : why ? what 's wrong ? devon : um ... you were right that colin is blackmailing me for money , and i need to stop him . cane : i asked you point - blank if colin knew about the affair . devon : i know . you did . cane : and i asked you -- did you give him the money to buy chancellor , and you lied to me . devon : i should n't have lied to you , but i could n't tell you the truth 'cause i did n't want to put you in that position . cane : well , you put me in this position now , have n't you ? devon : i do n't have a choice now . cane : i told you months ago to end the affair with hilary , and that 's what you should have done . devon : i do n't know what i 'm supposed to say to you . hilary and i are in love . cane : oh , okay . do you think that this is gon na end well for anybody ? devon : no . i know it 's gon na be difficult , but we plan on telling neil the truth as soon as he gets his eyesight back . cane : just stop it . stop it . devon : that 's the plan . cane : stop it . are you listening to yourself here ? there is no guarantee neil will get his eyesight back , and do you think the first thing he wants to hear from his son is `` dad , i 've been having an affair with your wife while you were blind `` ? devon : cane , however it shakes out , he needs to hear it from me and hilary , not your father . cane : oh , okay . now i understand what 's going on here . you want me to go to colin and get him to back off . is that what this is ? devon : yes . cane : okay . and then you want me to go to lily and lie to her and then lie to neil while you keep your little secret until you decide to tell everybody . are you out of your mind ? are you ? neil : you 've been sneaking around my back for months , and you think you deserve a prize for telling me now ? for waiting until you both could look me in the eye ? devon : just before you had your accident , we were gon na tell you the truth . hilary : that same night , okay ? but then you lost your vision . neil : and you said nothing . because you pitied me . hilary : no . never . neil : shut up ! hilary : neil , neil , it 's not his fault , okay ? it 's not his -- neil , stop it ! neil : you could n't go after one of those women who keep throwing themselves at you , could you ? hilary : stop it . neil : you could n't go after one of those women ! my cheating son . you had to go after my wife . hilary : neil ... neil ! devon . devon ! devon , wake up . devon , devon , devon . what have you done ? neil : you did this . devon : i get why you 're so upset , but i do n't have time to argue about this 'cause colin is literally meeting with neil right now , as we speak . he threatened to tell him everything if i do n't come up with some huge payoff right away . cane : so that 's why colin 's made this so urgent . devon : why do you say that ? cane : victor wants full payment for chancellor by noon , and jill 's still waiting for colin to come through with the funds . devon : so , colin is desperate . cane : yeah , he 's desperate . devon : will you help me stop your father ? stitch : it was the worst time in your life . you were so lost . kelly : of course i was . my -- my son had died . my marriage collapsed . emotionally , it broke me . stitch : and you had to get help . kelly : do not compare me to phyllis , ben . i am not like her . she is crazy ! stitch : all right , kelly . kelly : i am not ! stitch : look , all right , kelly . hold up . look . i was n't saying anything like that . i just -- i do n't want to see you hurt .

jill : ... i have decided to have faith in him , okay ? cane : ah , ah , ah , ah , that means , basically , you 've decided to look the other way 'cause you need the money . jill : well , we do need the money , okay ? we 've looked into other means of finance , and we 've come up empty . all right ? we have to accept colin 's help . cane : the only reason colin is helping us is 'cause he wants to help himself .

paul : i have n't formed an opinion . christine : okay , well , how could you even consider that ? paul : well , because i do n't have enough information yet . and neither do you , miss d.a . christine : oh , god , that 's such a low blow . paul : [ sighs ] yeah , no , it is n't . no matter how personal this feels , we serve the people of genoa city first and foremost . christine : right . and i will serve the people by making sure phyllis does n't skate on some trumped - up defense . avery : you have no choice . going to fairview and getting a psychiatric evaluation that proves you were not in your right mind when you did this is the only way to avoid a criminal trial . phyllis : are you kidding me ? ! this is the best my two genius lawyers have come up with . this is the best you can offer . forget it ! michael : do you really want us to put you on the stand ? is that what you want ? you want to face christine , knowing that she will do whatever she can to put you away this time ? phyllis : let 's ask for a change of venue . michael : no . there 's been no publicity on this . there 's no reason to believe a jury here would be prejudicial towards you . no judge will grant a change of venue . avery : phyllis , we 've looked at this from every angle . please believe us when we say this is the best way . jack : please follow their advice , not just for your legal case , because there are people there , professionals , who can help you get better . phyllis : you 've done all this to me , jack . you did all of this to punish me . jack : to punish you ? for what ? phyllis : yeah . because i came back and ruined the perfect life you had without me . victor : i may be giving up victor : i may be giving up the real - estate deal , but i 'm selling chancellor to the highest bidder ... unless jill comes up with the cash , all of it , very soon . victoria : you 're giving jill the first shot at buying chancellor ? victor : you find that surprising ? victoria : well , you 're not exactly friendly . victor : if katherine would want the company to go to anyone but me , i think it would be jill . victoria : that is very thoughtful of you . victor : well , contrary to popular belief , i am , sometimes , capable of ... some kind gesture , you know ? victoria : daddy , i want you to know something . victor : what , my darling ? victoria : i know that i pressed you to sell chancellor , and i know how wrenching it is for you , giving up the company that katherine left to you . victor : i think this is the best way to honor katherine 's legacy , do n't you ? jill : tell me you have the money . colin : well , not yet . jill : damn it ! it 's down to the wire , honey . colin : i wo n't let you down . i promise . glad you could make it . we need to discuss a new payment plan . devon : well , that 's not why i 'm here . colin : i figured it was n't for the coffee . devon : [ chuckles ] no . no , it 's not . um ... colin , if you want to out me and hilary , then be my guest , because i 'm not gon na give you any more money . colin : [ chuckles ] i like your audacity . but i do n't think you 're prepared to blow your family up just yet . devon : well , i do n't think you 're prepared to blow your family up . colin : how so ? devon : you know how so . they 're gon na know about the blackmail . they 're gon na know you have n't changed , and they 're gon na know everything you 've worked for to get back your wife , your family , your grandkids -- it 'll be gone . colin : you might have a point . devon : and it 's a good point . colin : look , my wife and my son want chancellor back desperately . they may not approve of my methods , but once they 've got their hands on the company , they 'll realize that what i did was for them , over time , of course . you , on the other hand -- you 'll be left to pursue your -- your romance with neil 's wife . here 's what i need . just wire me the money . kelly : i am not still hung up on jack . stitch : okay , phyllis tried to poison you , and you 're more worried about him than you are yourself . yeah , i 'd say you 're still pretty hung up . kelly : i care about him , okay ? that 's all . stitch : we both know it runs deeper than that . and if -- if you ca n't admit it , kelly , you wo n't be able to get passed it . kelly : i accepted the fact that jack chose phyllis . she is the one who ca n't let go . she is the one who has been so obsessed with me . she keeps dragging me back into jack 's life . stitch : okay , okay , i hear you . kelly : i mean , after everything that she has done , including poisoning me , i think it 's reasonable that i could possibly be still worried about jack . that does n't mean i ca n't live without him . what ? just say it . stitch : you fall hard , kelly . you fully commit to people and relationships you care about . kelly : so , what 's wrong with that ? stitch : nothing , until those relationships end , for whatever reason . kelly : you 're completely exaggerating . stitch : am i exaggerating about how you completely fell apart after your marriage ended ? i do n't want you going back to that place . jack : could you two give me a moment alone with phyllis , please ? avery : yes , of course . [ door closes ] phyllis : you can stop pretending . i know that my awakening was very inconvenient for you . jack : inconvenient ? phyllis : yeah , you moved on with kelly . jack : when you came back , the first thing i did was break things off with her to tell her that i loved you . phyllis : yeah , i thought that meant that you were gon na fight for us , and i believed you . jack : i was hoping you would recover , praying every day that you would come back to me . phyllis : and you did n't make that happen . jack : oh , yeah . victor with his drugs that now phyllis : what ? [ chuckles ] were you gon na say `` that made me crazy `` ? that 's what you were gon na say , was n't it ? jack : do n't tell me what i was gon na say . i want to spend my life with you . that 's why i proposed to you . that 's why i 'm here now , fighting for you . phyllis , you have to admit you have not been yourself lately . phyllis : i 'm confused . i 'm confused . i - i do n't know . i do n't know who to trust . i ca n't even trust myself . jack : so trust me . the people that love you . we are all here to make you better . phyllis : i know . will you help me do that , please , jack ? jack : i 'm trying . phyllis : okay , then -- then -- then no hospitals . no doctors . you tell that judge and christine and paul that i am still me . i am the same woman that you fell in love with . baby , you 've got to tell them . jack : the woman i fell in love with woerer life back . phyllis : and that means fairview ? [ door opens ] avery : phyllis , the guard is here to transfer you , if you 're ready . jack : avery and i will be right behind you , okay ? [ sighs ] christine : i look forward to reading your psychiatric evaluation , phyllis . i 'm sure it will be fascinating . victoria : you know , dad , you 've really done right by katherine . and you 've come through for mom , and that 's made a big difference to her . victor : i 'm worried about your mom . when i found out she dropped the baby ... wow . victoria : i know . thank god billy caught her . mom said it was vertigo and dizziness . victor : whatever it was , it worries me a great deal . and your mother is my priority , as are my children and grandchildren . and it may not seem so obvious sometimes , but i 'll do anything to keep my family together . neil : i ca n't leave like this . hilary : wh me what 's bothering you ? please , what 's going on ? neil : for the umpteenth time , okay , i think i 'm just -- hilary : i 'm eveved that you 're hopeful again . okay ? nothing would be more wonderful than you regaining your sight . neil : okay . that 's true . um , since i 'm running out on you to meet with colin , how about i make it up to you and take you out later to celebrate ? how does that sound ? hilary : celebrate what ? neil : the possibility of what lies ahead . i 'll see you later . bye . hilary : neil : to our hopes being rewarded . i finally have my sight back . hilary : i 'm so happy for you , neil . neil : for us . you 've been with me every step of the way . honey , hey , look at me . what is it ? hilary : it 's just been an emotional night . that 's all . neil : do you remember what we promised ? we promised that we 'd be honest with each other at all costs . remember that ? so tell me . hilary : neil , i 've ... there 's someone else . neil : i know . it 's devon , is n't it ? hilary : how did you -- neil : i 've known all along . i felt this connection between the two of you . i just did n't want to believe it , baby . hilary : i 'm sorry . we did n't mean for any of this happen . the way it 's -- neil : no , no , no . i know . i know . and i am not -- i 'm not angry . i just do n't want to hear about it . hilary : what can i do ? neil : just give me some time . alone . hilary : okay . neil : hey , baby ... be happy . and do n't worry . it 's all gon na work out in the end . devon : hey , cane . i came here looking for you . i need your help . cane : why ? what 's wrong ? devon : um ... you were right that colin is blackmailing me for money , and i need to stop him . cane : i asked you point - blank if colin knew about the affair . devon : i know . you did . cane : and i asked you -- did you give him the money to buy chancellor , and you lied to me . devon : i should n't have lied to you , but i could n't tell you the truth 'cause i did n't want to put you in that position . cane : well , you put me in this position now , have n't you ? devon : i do n't have a choice now . cane : i told you months ago to end the affair with hilary , and that 's what you should have done . devon : i do n't know what i 'm supposed to say to you . hilary and i are in love . cane : oh , okay . do you think that this is gon na end well for anybody ? devon : no . i know it 's gon na be difficult , but we plan on telling neil the truth as soon as he gets his eyesight back . cane : just stop it . stop it . devon : that 's the plan . cane : stop it . are you listening to yourself here ? there is no guarantee neil will get his eyesight back , and do you think the first thing he wants to hear from his son is `` dad , i 've been having an affair with your wife while you were blind `` ? devon : cane , however it shakes out , he needs to hear it from me and hilary , not your father . cane : oh , okay . now i understand what 's going on here . you want me to go to colin and get him to back off . is that what this is ? devon : yes . cane : okay . and then you want me to go to lily and lie to her and then lie to neil while you keep your little secret until you decide to tell everybody . are you out of your mind ? are you ? neil : you 've been sneaking around my back for months , and you think you deserve a prize for telling me now ? for waiting until you both could look me in the eye ? devon : just before you had your accident , we were gon na tell you the truth . hilary : that same night , okay ? but then you lost your vision . neil : and you said nothing . because you pitied me . hilary : no . never . neil : shut up ! hilary : neil , neil , it 's not his fault , okay ? it 's not his -- neil , stop it ! neil : you could n't go after one of those women who keep throwing themselves at you , could you ? hilary : stop it . neil : you could n't go after one of those women ! my cheating son . you had to go after my wife . hilary : neil ... neil ! devon . devon ! devon , wake up . devon , devon , devon . what have you done ? neil : you did this . devon : i get why you 're so upset , but i do n't have time to argue about this 'cause colin is literally meeting with neil right now , as we speak . he threatened to tell him everything if i do n't come up with some huge payoff right away . cane : so that 's why colin 's made this so urgent . devon : why do you say that ? cane : victor wants full payment for chancellor by noon , and jill 's still waiting for colin to come through with the funds . devon : so , colin is desperate . cane : yeah , he 's desperate . devon : will you help me stop your father ? stitch : it was the worst time in your life . you were so lost . kelly : of course i was . my -- my son had died . my marriage collapsed . emotionally , it broke me . stitch : and you had to get help . kelly : do not compare me to phyllis , ben . i am not like her . she is crazy ! stitch : all right , kelly . kelly : i am not ! stitch : look , all right , kelly . hold up . look . i was n't saying anything like that . i just -- i do n't want to see you hurt . [ door opens ] kelly : i really hope you mean that , ben . [ sniffles ] excuse me . sorry . victoria : what was that all about ? stitch : phyllis . avery : okay . it 's not so bad . it 's -- it 's actually kind of cheery . phyllis : no , no , no . it -- you -- no . if i am not crazy , this is definitely gon na put me over the edge . jack : it 's a whole lot better than a jail cell . phyllis : it is a different kind of cell . i already lost a year of my life in that clinic , and now i 'm supposed to stay here for god knows how long , getting my head turned inside out ? avery : it 'll help you get well , and it could help your case . think about that . the doctor will be by soon . you need to go now . phyllis : no . no . you ca n't leave me here alone . michael : i 'm sorry we 're ending up on opposite sides of phyllis ' case . christine : phyllis has her sister to represent her . why do you feel the need to jump into the fray ? michael : i want to keep my friend from going to prison . and i want to see to it that she gets help for her issues . christine : right , her issues , not mental illness . you know what phyllis is capable of when she 's on a jealous tirade . michael : i should go . paul : michael . christine : he is protecting her . he knows phyllis is n't crazy . she 's vindictive and deadly . paul : you know , as phyllis ' attorney , he was never gon na admit to that . so why even ask ?

hope : i 'm sorry . oh , my god . i 'm so sorry . i 'm sorry that i 'm putting you through this . liam : it 's okay . whatever it is , you can tell me . it 'll be all right . hope : i 'm pregnant . bill : liam ? liam ! liam : out here . bill : would you answer me when i call you ? liam : i just did . bill : talk to hope ? liam : i did . bill : you tell her about quinn ? liam : yeah . bill : and ? i just saw brooke . she , uh ... she 's pretty confident you guys are gon na get back together . liam : yeah , so was i . bill : was ? what -- where 's hope ? liam : not here . wyatt : [ sighs ] you came back . hope : have you been waiting ? wyatt : not the whole time . i 've also been not calling you , not texting you , and pacing a groove in the floor over there . hope : i 'm really sorry that i left . i should n't have done that . wyatt : no . no , you were overwhelmed . what my mother did , following liam to paris and pushing ivy into the seine , it 's a -- it 's a whole new brand of crazy . hope : i went to liam 's . wyatt : i figured . but now you 're here . that 's either very good news or ... you 're here to ... get your stuff . ivy : how do you think hope will react ? aly : everyone thought your fall into the seine was an accident . when hope finds out you were pushed , she will be furious . ivy : furious enough to leave wyatt and go back to liam ? aly : i know this is n't what you want to hear ... but i think she will . it 's their history , ivy . hope and wyatt just do n't have a deep connection like that . ivy : wyatt is not a consolation prize . hope has real feelings for him . aly : but they ca n't compare to what she has with liam . ivy : [ scoffs ] she married wyatt . she made a commitment . aly : yeah , under false pretenses . it does n't count . aly : oh , you sound just like liam . aly : i 'm sorry , ivy . ivy : do n't be . i knew exactly what i was getting myself into . well , i should have . hope is a logan . maybe it 's true what people say about them -- they can have any man they want , and then they just never let go . liam : hope left , dad . she 's -- she 's not coming back . bill : where did she go ? liam : where do you think ? bill : back to wyatt . she 's not leaving him . liam : no , it 's , uh ... [ chuckles ] it 's too late for that . bill : because they 're married . liam : they 've been married for a while , you know ? they 've been making plans , building a life together . building it on a lie , but ... but they 've moved on . and , god , i - i thought hope and i could turn back the clock . i really did . and i was wrong . wyatt : okay , before you say anything , i need to be honest with you about something . hope : okay . wyatt : my mother showed up after you left . hope : [ sighs ] what did you tell her ? wyatt : that if you did n't come back i 'd blame her . hope : that must have been very upsetting for her . wyatt : yeah , it was . but right in the middle of all her excuses , she actually said something that made sense . look , what she did was despicable and dangerous and just disgusting . but that does n't change how we felt when we made our vows , and all the amazing days that we 've had since then . hope , you did n't marry me because liam did n't show up on time . that 's not you . that 's not how you make decisions . we are together for a reason . and it has nothing to do with my mother or liam . ivy : i wo n't be mad at hope if she decides to take liam back . aly : well , i guess that 's good , because i think she will . you should check on him . ivy : no , i - i ca n't . i ... aly : okay . then i will . ivy : aly , do n't . i just -- aly : look , if he does n't want to talk , he wo n't answer .

what -- where 's hope ? liam : not here . wyatt : [ sighs ] you came back . hope : have you been waiting ? wyatt : not the whole time . i 've also been not calling you , not texting you , and pacing a groove in the floor over there . hope : i 'm really sorry that i left . i should n't have done that . wyatt : no . no , you were overwhelmed . what my mother did , following liam to paris and pushing ivy into the seine , it 's a -- it 's a whole new brand of crazy . hope : i went to liam 's . wyatt : i figured . but now you 're here . that 's either very good news or ... you 're here to ... get your stuff . ivy : how do you think hope will react ? aly : everyone thought your fall into the seine was an accident . when hope finds out you were pushed , she will be furious . ivy : furious enough to leave wyatt and go back to liam ? aly : i know this is n't what you want to hear ... but i think she will . it 's their history , ivy . hope and wyatt just do n't have a deep connection like that . ivy : wyatt is not a consolation prize . hope has real feelings for him . aly : but they ca n't compare to what she has with liam . ivy : [ scoffs ] she married wyatt . she made a commitment . aly : yeah , under false pretenses . it does n't count . aly : oh , you sound just like liam . aly : i 'm sorry , ivy . ivy : do n't be . i knew exactly what i was getting myself into . well , i should have . hope is a logan . maybe it 's true what people say about them -- they can have any man they want , and then they just never let go . liam : hope left , dad . she 's -- she 's not coming back . bill : where did she go ? liam : where do you think ? bill : back to wyatt . she 's not leaving him . liam : no , it 's , uh ...

nate : i ca n't rule it out . but the fact that he bounced back so quickly is a good sign . victor : and , doc , one other thing . um ... you know nikki and i would very much like to go to abby 's opening tonight just to cheer her on , you know ? is that alright ? nate : yeah , as far as i 'm concerned . nikki : no . this is my call . we 're not taking any chances . you and i are gon na be right here . adam : i mean , i 'm not a doctor . could doubling the dosage kick in that fast ?

nikki : darling , do you know what your favorite meal is ? victor : well , no . w -- [ sighs ] i 'm -- i 'm drawing a blank . nikki : it 's cornish game hens , but do n't worry about not remembering it . i 'm sure it 's all the stress you 've been under . victor : oh . well , i - i 'm not that hungry anyway right now . what -- what i would love to do is i 'd -- i 'd love to dance with you . nikki : [ chuckles ] adam : why do you continue to keep bugging me about this , phyllis ? i gave you my answer at the coffeehouse . i am fine with what i did . phyllis : i do n't believe you . adam : more than fine . phyllis : [ sighs ] adam : you do n't believe me . you know , not that long ago , you went on a rant about how unjust the world has been to you , reminding me how much we have in common . that day , you were right , okay ? but today you are wrong , because my family has treated me like something you would scrape off the bottom of your shoe . and for that , i want to see my father completely incapacitated . phyllis : completely ? adam : mm - hmm . phyllis : alright . i don't ... have any judgment . just -- i 'm all for burning the house down . adam , this is a little different than you described the other day . adam : you do n't think i have what it takes to go through with it ?

[ gasps ] we could have a spa day -- post it all for our followers . summer : oh , my god . okay . um , you are being beyond clingy right now . these look exactly like the medication victor 's taking -- the same size and markings . doubling the dosage will increase his side effects greatly . nikki : oh , thank you , joan . i 'll let you know if i have any changes . adam : goodbye , dad . nikki : there you are . victor : thank you , sweetheart . it 's not decaf , is it ? nikki : oh , perish the thought . victor : okay . nikki : but i was thinking , uh , maybe we should just take our drinks to go and head home . victor : why ? nikki : well , we 've been out for a while , and pretty soon we 're gon na have to get ready for abby 's big night . victor : oh , we have plenty of time , darling . i mean , i 'm enjoying this day . let 's stay a little while . nikki : i just think maybe that ... you should relax a little bit before tonight . you have n't quite seemed yourself . victor : oh , baby , i 'm -- i 'm -- i 'm -- i 'm alright . nikki : are we really gon na do this ? victor : [ sighs ] okay . i 'm a little off . okay ? but that , i think , has to do with the fact that i was upset by adam 's visit . nikki : are you sure that 's all it is ? victor : yeah . i mean , otherwise , i - i feel much better . i think i 'm making progress , you know ? what else could it be ? adam : listen . so ... the minute their backs were turned , i switched the medication in dad 's pocket . the labels are identical . and the pills are twice as strong now , which , according to my pharmacist friend , can lead to some interesting complications . phyllis : i 'm just curious . i 'm curious -- adam : what ? are you gon na lecture me now ? phyllis : no . i 'm on board . i told you that . i just want to know , are you having second thoughts , any nagging feeling in the back of your mind that maybe you 're going overboard ? adam : victor tried to run me over with a car . is that not enough ? phyllis : i was just checking . i need some coffee . kyle : [ sighs ] not out here . [ sighs ] i ca n't find it anywhere ! should i wear the blue one - instead ? lola : i know what 's bothering you , and it 's not your tie going missing . kyle : oh , yeah ? lola : it 's theo . you 're dreading seeing him . just ignore him . kyle : easier said than done . lola : i know that you have it in you . you ignore me when i bug you about leaving your wet towel on the bathroom floor . go on , kyle abbot . ignore me . kyle : looking like that ? lola : it 'll be good practice . kyle : uh ... this is ... monumentally unfair . lola : what , this is difficult for you ? kyle : [ sighs ] try impossible . lola : come on , baby . you can do it . pretend like i 'm not even here . kyle : mm . devon : hey , there . elena : hey ! devon : i thought you were gon na be home hours ago . elena : i know , but something really cool came up . devon : oh . nate : i , uh , had an emergency surgery and invited elena to observe , so if she 's late , blame me . devon : ah , i see . that 's okay . that 's okay . it sounds like he gave you a great opportunity , huh ? elena : he did . thank you for understanding . devon : yeah , of course . sharon : thanks again for letting faith stay here while i go on my trip . oh , and she insisted that she 's fine with just her father dropping her off at boarding school . nick : yeah , it 's not a problem , although i can not believe our little girl is old enough to go off to boarding school . sharon : i know . me , neither . and that 's part of what i want to work through , you know , on my trip , which i would have been gone by now already , but i 'm going to abby 's opening - night big gala . nick : abby 's opening - night big gala ? you know , it 's chelsea 's , too . kind of glided right over that . sharon : oh . i - i - i guess i did . no , you 're right . um , and i 'm honestly happy for her . nick : [ chuckles ] that almost sounded sincere . sharon : well , i 'll have to work on my presentation . nick : i guess i was , uh , you know , kind of hoping that you and chelsea could be friends . we 're all part of this big , messy , blended family . is that too much to ask for ? sharon : yeah . probably too much to ask for . nick : it 's too much . sharon : [ chuckles ] but you know what ? i am glad that you two are back together , for your sake . you really deserve a fresh new start , nick . and now it 's my turn . abby : [ sighs , chuckles ] [ sighs ] chelsea : [ sighs ] are you ready ? abby : oh , i 'm ready .

adam : you were the one that said he needed to know . chelsea : i also said that i wanted to be the one to tell him . adam : look , i 'm sorry . okay ? when he started talking about how much he missed me , my emotions took over . chelsea : i could see that . adam : the last thing i wanted to do was hurt him . chelsea : i know how much you love him . he 's going through a lot . he 's gon na need both of us to be there for him . so i expect you to do your part next time you see him . adam : well , i am afraid that that wo n't be possible . chelsea : why not ?

i 'm really confused , adam . just tell me what 's going on . adam : i finally realized what everybody was saying is right -- connor is better off without me . so i 'm going . and i 'm leaving my son behind . i 'm leah . and that 's me , `` the young and the restless `` will continue . paul : so you want me to hire you at the gcpd after you spent the last two years hiding a fugitive ? kevin : allegedly . paul : you expect me to believe you did n't know where chloe was all that time ? kevin : well , if i did hide her , that would be a plus . knowing how the criminal mind works will keep me two steps ahead of the bad guys . paul : you are one of the bad guys , kevin . kevin : i was . but i 'm reformed . paul : [ sighs ] i 've heard that before . kevin : okay , yes , i 've -- i 've had some minor run - ins with the law . but -- but you knew that the last time you hired me . why is it a problem now ?

theo : well , you know i 'm a `` glass half full `` kind of guy , but sometimes life can be brutal . summer : yeah . like right now ? theo : yeah . losing your grandpa , your aunt being arrested , everybody telling you how sorry they are . it 's enough to make your head explode . summer : yeah , well , they mean well . theo : oh , absolutely . but , you know , you reach a point where you just want to shut out everything and everyone . summer : huh . except you , huh ? theo : well , i mean , you needed somebody to keep your mind off the bad stuff . summer : okay , are -- are you kidding me right now ? theo : what ? i - i 'm trying to help . summer : i am grieving . it 's a pretty safe bet that my uncle killed my grandfather and then framed my aunt for it , and you want to have sex ? nick : i hate seeing summer in so much pan . nikki : we all do , honey . nick : i 'm just so glad i did n't have to lie to noah . victoria : i told reed the truth . i could n't lie to him after what happened to j.t . nikki : summer will understand why we had to keep this from her . we just could n't risk her letting something slip to phyllis . but poor connor and christian . nick : well , christian has me . but once the truth comes out , connor 's dad may be in prison . victor : my heart just breaks for the boy . victoria : we 'll all be there for him . victor : i know , sweetheart , but still . losing a parent so soon after getting him back ... victoria : when that parent 's adam , i think you 're better off . victor : [ sighs ] yeah . by the way , how did adam react when you invited him to the funeral ? nick : as you 'd expect . if anything i said got to adam , he did n't show it . chelsea : you 're abandoning connor ? what i -- is this one of your games ? what , you want me to beg you to stay ? adam : chelsea , there is nothing that you could say that is going to make me change my mind . this is what 's best . chelsea : for who ? adam : for connor . chelsea : if you gave a damn about what is best for connor , you would n't be leaving him . adam : look , i am doing this for him . chelsea : adam , you begged me to let you back into our son 's life , and now you 're just -- you 're just walking away ? that 's not how parenting works ! adam : and that proves my point . i am a lousy parent . and connor deserves better than that . chelsea : i honestly thought that you loved him . adam : i do love him . and that is why i am doing this . i am giving him the same gift that i gave to christian -- chelsea : gift ? a gift ? deserting your kid is giving him a gift , adam ? ! adam : chelsea , i am giving him a chance at a life without all my messed - up crap . okay ? and it took me -- it took me a while to figure out that that is what is right . and in time , you will realize that , too . chelsea : no , i won't . he lost calvin and victor . now you 're willing to let him lose you , too . how do you expect me to explain that to him ? adam : tell him the truth . that he 's better off without me . chelsea : you selfish bastard . no . if you want to crush your own son 's heart , you tell him yourself . tell him to his face that you 're leaving . i 've always been fascinated by what 's next . kyle : i should get to work . lola : yeah . mm - hmm . me , too . kyle : uh - huh . oh -- kyle : bye . oh . what happened ? lola : chopping accident . it 's just a hazard of the job . kyle : aw . [ smooches ] i 'm sorry . lola : it 's okay . it happens . no big deal . kyle : mm . theo : babe , babe , you got it all wrong . look , i - i was n't trying to pressure you . at all . summer : really ? 'cause it sure feels like it . theo : [ sighs ] i was just trying to help you forget all the crappy stuff that 's going on in your life . maybe i went about it the wrong way . summer : there is no right or wrong way for dealing with grief . but for me , sex is definitely not the answer . theo : what is ? i mean , tell me . i 'll do it . summer : i do n't know . i do n't know . it really helped when kyle just let me talk . he was understanding and really sensitive . theo : we talked . that whole conversation about me losing my dad ? i mean , i opened a vein . w - was that not sensitive enough for you ? summer : no , that 's not what i 'm saying . theo : you got a text from kyle and bolted before you could say anything . summer : kyle and i work together . theo : what , he segued from spreadsheets to sympathy ? summer : no , that 's not what happened . i -- [ sighs ] kyle and i have a history , and he knew my grandfather , so he really understands what a huge loss this is for me . theo : i do n't ? summer : all i know is , is that kyle does n't think that getting naked is the solution to everything . theo : kyle is n't getting naked with you because he 's got a wife . not because he 's mr . sensitive . connor : dad ! mom did n't tell me you were here . > dam : [ chuckles , s s s s sohhh . oh ! hey . i need to talk to you . connor : did someone else die ? adam : no . no . no , no . connor : something 's wrong . i can tell . adam : [ sighs ] chelsea : i 'll leave you guys to talk . connor : what is it , dad ? adam : listen , let 's go sit on the couch , okay ?

kevin : allegedly . paul : you expect me to believe you did n't know where chloe was all that time ? kevin : well , if i did hide her , that would be a plus . knowing how the criminal mind works will keep me two steps ahead of the bad guys . paul : you are one of the bad guys , kevin . kevin : i was . but i 'm reformed . paul : [ sighs ] i 've heard that before . kevin : okay , yes , i 've -- i 've had some minor run - ins with the law . but -- but you knew that the last time you hired me . why is it a problem now ?

theo : well , you know i 'm a `` glass half full `` kind of guy , but sometimes life can be brutal . summer : yeah . like right now ? theo : yeah . losing your grandpa , your aunt being arrested , everybody telling you how sorry they are . it 's enough to make your head explode . summer : yeah , well , they mean well . theo : oh , absolutely . but , you know , you reach a point where you just want to shut out everything and everyone . summer : huh . except you , huh ? theo : well , i mean , you needed somebody to keep your mind off the bad stuff . summer : okay , are -- are you kidding me right now ? theo : what ? i - i 'm trying to help . summer : i am grieving . it 's a pretty safe bet that my uncle killed my grandfather and then framed my aunt for it , and you want to have sex ? nick : i hate seeing summer in so much pan . nikki : we all do , honey . nick : i 'm just so glad i did n't have to lie to noah . victoria : i told reed the truth . i could n't lie to him after what happened to j.t . nikki : summer will understand why we had to keep this from her . we just could n't risk her letting something slip to phyllis . but poor connor and christian . nick : well , christian has me . but once the truth comes out , connor 's dad may be in prison . victor : my heart just breaks for the boy . victoria : we 'll all be there for him . victor : i know , sweetheart , but still . losing a parent so soon after getting him back ... victoria : when that parent 's adam , i think you 're better off . victor : [ sighs ] yeah . by the way , how did adam react when you invited him to the funeral ? nick : as you 'd expect . if anything i said got to adam , he did n't show it . chelsea : you 're abandoning connor ? what i -- is this one of your games ? what , you want me to beg you to stay ? adam : chelsea , there is nothing that you could say that is going to make me change my mind . this is what 's best . chelsea : for who ? adam : for connor . chelsea : if you gave a damn about what is best for connor , you would n't be leaving him . adam : look , i am doing this for him . chelsea : adam , you begged me to let you back into our son 's life , and now you 're just -- you 're just walking away ? that 's not how parenting works ! adam : and that proves my point . i am a lousy parent . and connor deserves better than that . chelsea : i honestly thought that you loved him . adam : i do love him . and that is why i am doing this . i am giving him the same gift that i gave to christian -- chelsea : gift ? a gift ? deserting your kid is giving him a gift , adam ? ! adam : chelsea , i am giving him a chance at a life without all my messed - up crap . okay ? and it took me -- it took me a while to figure out that that is what is right . and in time , you will realize that , too . chelsea : no , i won't . he lost calvin and victor . now you 're willing to let him lose you , too . how do you expect me to explain that to him ? adam : tell him the truth . that he 's better off without me . chelsea : you selfish bastard . no . if you want to crush your own son 's heart , you tell him yourself . tell him to his face that you 're leaving . i 've always been fascinated by what 's next . kyle : i should get to work . lola : yeah . mm - hmm . me , too . kyle : uh - huh . oh -- kyle : bye . oh . what happened ? lola : chopping accident . it 's just a hazard of the job . kyle : aw . [ smooches ] i 'm sorry . lola : it 's okay . it happens . no big deal . kyle : mm . theo : babe , babe , you got it all wrong . look , i - i was n't trying to pressure you . at all . summer : really ? 'cause it sure feels like it . theo : [ sighs ] i was just trying to help you forget all the crappy stuff that 's going on in your life . maybe i went about it the wrong way . summer : there is no right or wrong way for dealing with grief . but for me , sex is definitely not the answer . theo : what is ? i mean , tell me . i 'll do it . summer : i do n't know . i do n't know . it really helped when kyle just let me talk . he was understanding and really sensitive . theo : we talked . that whole conversation about me losing my dad ? i mean , i opened a vein . w - was that not sensitive enough for you ? summer : no , that 's not what i 'm saying . theo : you got a text from kyle and bolted before you could say anything . summer : kyle and i work together . theo : what , he segued from spreadsheets to sympathy ? summer : no , that 's not what happened . i -- [ sighs ] kyle and i have a history , and he knew my grandfather , so he really understands what a huge loss this is for me . theo : i do n't ? summer : all i know is , is that kyle does n't think that getting naked is the solution to everything . theo : kyle is n't getting naked with you because he 's got a wife . not because he 's mr . sensitive . connor : dad ! mom did n't tell me you were here . > dam : [ chuckles , s s s s sohhh . oh ! hey . i need to talk to you . connor : did someone else die ? adam : no . no . no , no . connor : something 's wrong . i can tell . adam : [ sighs ] chelsea : i 'll leave you guys to talk . connor : what is it , dad ? adam : listen , let 's go sit on the couch , okay ?

[ scene_break ] jason : come on . the doctor gave you some pain meds . spinelli : yeah , the jackal laughs at pain . usually . jason : who are you trying to impress , spinelli ? spinelli : stone cold scorns any reliance on pharmaceuticals . jason : okay , you know what ? i have my reasons . that 's me , you 're you . you 're smart , you have a future . why are you doing this ? why are out hanging out in alleys so you can get hit by cars ? spinelli : jackal p.i . was attempting to gain vital intelligence for the master . jason : yeah , i 'm not worth risking your life on a stakeout . you 're too good for that . spinelli : no . i 'm a hopeless wimp , okay ? something that stone cold can not comprehend because he is a paragon of manly prowess . jason : okay , i want you to tell me something . exactly what part of my life do you want ? spinelli : you ca n't seriously ask that . jason : is it the laws i 've broken ? is it the jail time ? is it the people i hurt ? the fact that i 've got to keep everybody i care about at a distance ? spinelli : there is much about stone cold 's existence that 's worth -- jason : like people wanting to kill me ? is that what appeals to you ? spinelli : stone cold has to look no further than right in -- jason : i use fear and intimidation on a daily basis . i mean , you do n't -- you do n't even see it . you 're already a better person than i am . [ scene_break ] kate : you know , i 'm actually feeling a little guilty about the way i kicked clarice out , so i think i should go up to the office . diane : kate , i 'm sure you 're probably both very hungry after that long flight . do n't we still have some leftover pasta in the fridge ? max has become quite the chef . kate : you know what , diane ? it 's okay . i really could n't . thank you , though . it 's not going to be long . sonny : okay , i 'll tell you what i 'm going to do , all right ? i want to pick you up in the speedboat ; we 're going to come home across the harbor . you love that ? kate : i love that . sonny : you love that ? kate : mm - hmm . sonny : all right . bye . kate : bye . sonny : what the hell is going on ? diane : nothing . max : nothing , nothing . diane : nothing . sonny : okay , if this is about me and kate getting married , i do n't want to hear it . if you do n't like it , i 'm accepting resignations . no ? good . because , as you can obviously see , we are very much in love and i would very much appreciate it if the people that we care about gave us a little bit of support . now , we are happy . we are getting married . end of story . [ scene_break ] lucky : i remember when i was staying here , leaving my room voluntarily -- lulu : do you know how awful it feels when you hide things from me ? it 's like you do n't trust me enough to tell me the truth . lucky : it 's not about trust . lulu : all right , nikolas , can you please give me an update ? nikolas : lulu , do n't play us off of each other . lulu : well , the difference is you respect my decisions and my feelings . lucky , on the other hand , thinks i 'm a hysterical kid who does n't know what 's good for her . lucky : lulu , we both want you to get well . lulu : then tell me the truth . something happened . nikolas : lucky , whatever it is , it 's best she hear it from you . lucky : scott claims he has evidence that logan was acting as an undercover cop . lulu : what ? that 's crazy . scott wanted logan to be a cop , but logan was n't interested . lucky : i know , scott has proof . nikolas : probably forged , not that it really matters . but listen , if logan really was a cop , that makes his killing murder with special circumstances , right ? lucky : he 's right . if he gets convicted , he could get the death penalty . [ scene_break ] scott : the prosecution calls assistant coroner , robert banner . dr . banner , how long have you been a coroner ? dr . banner : three years in port charles , but ten years before that in buffalo . scott : so , when you say that logan hayes had been dead for two hours when you found him outside the clinic , is that more than an educated guess ? dr . banner : that 's right . we can pinpoint the time of death between 6 : 00 and 9 : 00 p.m . scott : what was the cause of death ? dr . banner : the victim died of a single stab wound , probably from a large kitchen knife . ric : is this the kind of knife that killed logan hayes ? dr . banner : it 's possible . ric : uh , how about this one ? dr . banner : that could be it , too . ric : really ? well , this is from my kitchen . and this is from the port charles police department lunch room . now , i have to ask you , dr . banner , is n't it possible that there are thousands of kitchens that have the exact same kind of knife matching the one that killed logan hayes ? dr . banner : yes . ric : yes . no more questions , your honor . judge aroyo : mr. baldwin , next witness . scott : i call detective david harper . [ scene_break ] spinelli : the jackal appreciates the master 's heartening pep talk . while he is flattered by the compliments offered , he still feels compelled to point out that he remains deficient in all facets of manly prowess . jason : i lost michael this year . i basically lost sonny . you 're one of the few remaining friends i have left . look , i 'm not going to tell you what to do , but selfishly , i do n't want you to die , especially doing something stupid like surveillance . spinelli : yeah , but that 's a skill that i wish to cultivate , along with a greater ease and accuracy with firearms and maybe even general proficiency in martial -- jason : yeah , but there 's nothing manly about getting shot at or carrying a gun . why ca n't you learn to trust yourself the way i trust you ? [ scene_break ] lulu : there must be a way to prove that scott is lying . lucky : judge was n't interested . lulu : okay , scott wants revenge for logan . he 's not going to be happy until johnny is dead , too . nikolas : maybe you could still appeal . lulu : johnny is a zacchara . he 's not going to last a week in prison . lucky : and his family will protect him . the best lawyer money can buy . lulu : i have to testify . nikolas : no , how -- of course , absolutely not . lucky : scott will twist everything you say . nikolas : the way to help john is to get well . lulu : okay , you know what ? can you -- will you just see johnny for me and tell him that i love him and i believe in him ? nikolas : of course i will . lucky : lulu , try not to worry . you need to save every ounce of strength for yourself . lulu : johnny is on trial because of me . [ scene_break ] [ knock at door ] jerry : hello , little brother . you busy ? jax : no . actually , i wanted to show you something . jerry : is that the new house ? alexis told me you had big plans . nice . jax : you still hanging out with her , huh ? jerry : well , she 's entirely devoted to you . i do n't know how comfortable i am with that . jax : if she 's asked you to persuade me that my relationship with carly will never work , you can save your breath . jerry : do you know how annoying it is that she 's so territorial when it comes to you ? jax : oh , really ? well , that 's because we want what 's best for each other . sometimes we just disagree on what that is . jerry : well , you see , alexis is as misguided by carly being bad for you as you are about me being bad for alexis . but , as your older brother , i 'm here to tell you that carly is the best thing that will happen to you . [ scene_break ] carly : hey , tim , good job with brunch yesterday . tim : oh , thanks , mrs. jacks . carly : have you seen mr. jacks ? tim : i have n't seen him yet . carly : oh , thanks . tim : sure . sonny : carly . carly : hey . if you 're looking for kate , she 's probably up in her office . sonny : no , no , i 'm looking for you . carly : any particular reason why ? sonny : i just got back from the island . and i took kate . carly : it 's pretty there this time of year . sonny : it brought up a lot of stuff . listen , it 's time for you and me to make this right . [ scene_break ] spinelli : what is this nourishment you bring ? jason : tomato soup and some crackers . spinelli : the jackal 's well - being is generally dependant on large quantities of orange soda and barbeque chips . jason : yeah , maybe you should lay off the junk for a few days . spinelli : aw , considering what the jackal went through at the hands of medical personnel poking and prodding and meals consisting of large amounts of brightly colored yet flavorless gelatin , it seems like a harmless pick - me - up would do me wonders . you know , something to lift my spirits and carry me on the wings of bliss to a speedy recovery . [ knock at door ] spinelli : what ? maxie : oh , good . this stuff weighs a ton . and could you be really careful with this stuff ? it 's my hair products . hi ! spinelli : hey . what an unexpected surprise . jason : um , wait , what is this ? why all these bags ? maxie : well , someone has to stay here to take care of spinelli .

's office -- laura : what ? lulu : it does n't matter . there 's nothing you can do -- laura : it does matter . i can tell it matters a lot to you . are you trying to protect me from something ? please , do n't do that . i 'm your mother . talk to me . lulu : scott baldwin forged some document so that it looked like logan was an undercover cop , which means if johnny is convicted , he 'll be facing the death penalty in my place . [ scene_break ] det . harper : the evidence indicated that the victim was murdered elsewhere and his body dropped at the clinic . ric : and on what do you base your conclusion ? det . harper : my experience as a homicide detective . ric : okay . so , in fact , elsewhere could mean anywhere within a three - hour drive of port charles , is that correct ? det . harper : or three blocks . ric : well , for example , it could have been , say , a botched robbery or a gang killing ? det . harper : as long as the gang member drives a late model , high end sedan with matching carpet fibers . ric : so , in fact , in your experience , detective , in homicide , if a person with severe stab wounds were to be dropped at a free clinic , would n't you conclude that the person who dropped them there in the first place was trying to get them medical help or save their life ? det . harper : the victim had already been dead for at least two to three hours . ric : well , yes , but you do n't have any evidence that shows that my client killed logan hayes deliberately or otherwise . no proof that shows he had intent . det . harper : we do n't have an eyewitness , no . ric : no more questions , your honor . judge aroyo : you may step down , detective . [ scene_break ] anthony : he let him off the hook . trevor : no . richie 's doing better than i expected .

[ scene_break ] jax : i know that things can be complicated with carly . sometimes the things i love about her are the things that drive us apart . jerry : well , i was wondering how many times you can survive that . jax : she needed to show me that we are equally committed and i have no doubt that we are . [ scene_break ] sonny : we noticed the sea shell collection . carly : do you remember the first time we took michael shell hunting ? he was determined to find the biggest and best shell . he had his eyes glued to the sand . sonny : yeah , he walked backward in the surf and then a wave just kind of knocked him down . carly : yeah . thank god you were there to save him . sonny : i should have packed up those shells up , and just -- right after the divorce and sent them to you . carly : why ? sonny : well , i mean -- carly : no , those shells belong on the island . that 's where the boys and i found them . sonny : we had fun . you know , we had our two sons there and i appreciate all the times you saved me . carly : you saved me , too . so , um , maybe in the end , that makes us even . i want you to know that i wish you the best . i really do . sonny : why the change of heart ? carly : because i love jax , and i had to lose him to find out how much he means to me and how perfect he is for me . so , i want the same for you . if kate is the woman who is going to put a smile on your face , then i wish you nothing but happiness . [ scene_break ] kate : well , actually all the planning i 've done for the wedding is just falling into place . it 's as if the angels are looking down on me . clarice : not that you 're superstitious . kate : no , i 'm so excited that you 're coming to the wedding . oh , i 'm sure by the time it rolls around i 'll be a complete mess . no -- why do n't you just talk to clarice . she can make all the arrangements for the hotel . okay , bye- bye . sorry . there 's one more thing you have to do . you have to arrange a block of rooms for all the out - of - town guests , okay ? clarice : i 'll do whatever you want , kate . kate : so , i 'm here , as promised . if you still needed to talk to me , i 'm all yours . clarice : kate , you know i love you . kate : clarice ? you are not quitting . you are not . did giselle offer you a raise ? clarice : what ? no , of course not . my loyalty is to you . and that 's why i have to say this . kate : oh , clarice , what -- what 's wrong ? clarice : i do n't want to see you hurt , ever . but i know you , and you 'd rather know about something like this than be left in the dark . kate : okay , um , like what ? clarice : when you were on the island , i went to drop the portfolio for the museum shoot off at sonny 's . diane and max did n't realize i was there , and i heard them talking . now , i promise you , i listened very carefully . i would never come to you unless i was absolutely certain . kate : about what , clarice ? clarice : back in may , when michael corinthos was shot , sonny and carly had sex . | it becomes clear that there is at least one juror already putting johnny in the gas chamber as edward loudly mutters his surety that he 's guilty . the judge allows scott to go ahead with the notion that logan was a cop , so john 's life is on the line , a fact lucky is very wary about revealing to lulu until she and nikolas pressure him into it . diane and max try to figure out how to keep kate from finding out what clarice knows , but as the show ends , she 's about to learn the truth . carly officially gives her blessing to sonny and kate , saying how happy she is with jax . he seems equally even more in love with her and reprimands clarice for setting carly up . alexis ' worry about carly and jax being a bad combination stalls jerry 's hopes of romance . jason tries to convince the jackal that he 's a better person than jason is , but is cut short by maxie arriving to take care of spinelli . | <s>[INST] carly : if spinelli is coming home from the hospital today , you could at least find food that he likes , not whole wheat bread , celery and lettuce . jason : wh -- what do you care what spinelli eats ? carly : well , if it were me , i would want , like , frozen pizzas , potato chips , cheesy snacks . jason : okay , well , now that you and jax are back together , maybe you should worry more about what jax wants . carly : you do n't have to worry about that . jax is going to be my number one priority . [ scene_break ] jax : i thought i caught carly in a lie . the fact is , she was set up . alexis : jax , i think that 's symptomatic of a bigger issue in your marriage , which is one of trust . jax : no , i do trust carly . she is as committed in this relationship as i am . alexis : i know you do . there is a dynamic that exists between sonny and carly , and i think you need to take a look at it . it -- it leaves destruction in its wake , and i -- we just hate to see you become another casualty .

[ scene_break ] jax : alexis , your experience with sonny and carly is different to mine . alexis : i know . i know that 's true , and i am biased . i was there the night that michael got shot . i watched them go at each other for 24 hours . it was ugly and it was painful , but , more importantly , it was a display of their love - hate relationship . jax : carly has put all that behind her now . alexis : i love you , and you deserve someone who loves you completely , jax . and i 'm not sure that carly will ever be capable of that . jax : you think i have n't had that conversation with myself a thousand times ? as long as carly is committed to this relationship , and i know that she is , i trust her . [ scene_break ] carly : jax had to know that he was worth fighting for -- and he is . you know , when i came down the steps and i saw jax and morgan having breakfast , it was -- it was amazing . it was like having a real family , and that 's all i 've ever wanted . jason : i 'm glad you got it . carly : god knows sonny and i tried to make it work . you know , and there were times when we were happy , but i 've never felt the peace that i felt when jax came home today . and i know that i have been self - destructive , but i do n't want to live that way anymore . i love jax . i love him so much . so , i wish sonny all the happiness with kate . i loathe her , and i despise her , but jax knows she lies . he does n't trust her anymore . so , for me , kate howard is no longer a problem . bye .

[ tracy clears throat ] [ scene_break ] ric : john , i have a strong defense , but there is compelling evidence against you . the further we get into this trial , the harder it is going to be to get a plea bargain . johnny : well , that 's not an option for you or me . my father is not going to accept anything less than an acquittal , and if an acquittal does n't happen , you are going to be the first in his line of fire . now you can bail and turn this case over to trevor if you want . i 'm not going to hold it against you . ric : no , no , i 'm -- i 'm a better lawyer than my father . you 're going to need my help .

[ scene_break ] kate : okay , first of all , carly , she is now mrs. j . -- not mrs. c. okay ? and , secondly , you might want to just take this whole subject up with sonny . okay , max , look , i am fond of you , and clearly you were worried . so let me just put your mind at ease , all right ? sonny and i took this holiday in part to put any kind of concerns on the table , and it is safe to say that this issue of carly has been put to rest . max : oh , that 's terrific . really . you 're going to be the new mrs. c. and no one will be the wiser . i -- no one meaning everyone will live happily ever after . as much as that 's possible . i hope . it 's all good . kate : okay , thank you , max . sonny : oh , do n't mind me . what 's going on here ? kate : max was just saying how happy he is for us . [ scene_break ] clarice : yes , i know ms. howard wants to set up a wedding cake tasting , but can we put a pin in it for now ? ms. howard has some important decisions to make . i 'll call you back when we set another date . hello , jax . kate has n't come into the office yet . jax : oh , okay . well , when you see her , tell her i dropped by . clarice : of course . jax : okay . clarice : is there something else ? jax : yeah , actually . i do n't appreciate the part you played in setting up my wife . i understand your first loyalty is to kate , but it just makes things a little awkward . it makes it hard for me to trust you again . clarice : i 'm sorry , but i do owe everything to kate . and carly is not as innocent as you 'd like to think . jax : excuse me ? you going to clarify that ? [ scene_break ] lulu : johnny 's trial started today . i have n't been able to stop thinking about him . nikolas : lulu , look . now , i know that you think nothing will ever feel right until you can be with him again , but for your own sake do n't make him , or really anyone else for that matter , your reason for living or holding onto your sanity . lulu : you say that as if i can control it . nikolas : well , you could if you focus on your recovery . lulu : okay , now i know -- i know that getting well is -- starts with me . you know , like drugs and alcohol , you ca n't do it for anybody else , but part of my recovery is about being honest . and i would be lying if i did n't say johnny is on my mind all the time , trial or no trial . lucky : hey , guys . lulu : hey . lucky : hey , you look fantastic . lulu : well i -- i 'm stronger than yesterday . lucky : well , that 's great . do you need anything ? maybe something from home -- lulu : how is johnny 's trial going ? [ scene_break ] scott : your honor , ladies and gentlemen of the jury , you are looking at a blood - thirsty killer . a son of the infamous gangster , born into violence , raised in violence , and destined to wear the mantel of violence . ric : special prosecutor baldwin would like for you to believe that the son should pay for the sins of the father . the only problem with that is john zacchara is n't a criminal . scott : john zacchara saw logan hayes as an obstacle , and what do all mobsters do ? they kill the obstacles , and then they just cover it up . ric : logan hayes was suffering from post - traumatic stress disorder , a debilitating syndrome which often manifests itself in irrational and even psychotic behavior . scott : logan hayes was a patriot . after serving in iraq , he decided what else could he do for the country . so he decided to become a police officer . ric : he became increasingly more angry and more violent , and he took this out on the one person that he felt was his competition . logan hayes attacked john zacchara , an attack that was so relentless , one of the men was bound to wind up dead . john zacchara had no choice but to defend himself . [ scene_break ] jason : come on . the doctor gave you some pain meds . spinelli : yeah , the jackal laughs at pain . usually . jason : who are you trying to impress , spinelli ? spinelli : stone cold scorns any reliance on pharmaceuticals . jason : okay , you know what ? i have my reasons . that 's me , you 're you . you 're smart , you have a future . why are you doing this ? why are out hanging out in alleys so you can get hit by cars ? spinelli : jackal p.i . was attempting to gain vital intelligence for the master . jason : yeah , i 'm not worth risking your life on a stakeout . you 're too good for that . spinelli : no . i 'm a hopeless wimp , okay ? something that stone cold can not comprehend because he is a paragon of manly prowess . jason : okay , i want you to tell me something . exactly what part of my life do you want ? spinelli : you ca n't seriously ask that . jason : is it the laws i 've broken ? is it the jail time ? is it the people i hurt ? the fact that i 've got to keep everybody i care about at a distance ? spinelli : there is much about stone cold 's existence that 's worth -- jason : like people wanting to kill me ? is that what appeals to you ? spinelli : stone cold has to look no further than right in -- jason : i use fear and intimidation on a daily basis . i mean , you do n't -- you do n't even see it . you 're already a better person than i am . [ scene_break ] kate : you know , i 'm actually feeling a little guilty about the way i kicked clarice out , so i think i should go up to the office . diane : kate , i 'm sure you 're probably both very hungry after that long flight . do n't we still have some leftover pasta in the fridge ? max has become quite the chef . kate : you know what , diane ? it 's okay . i really could n't . thank you , though . it 's not going to be long . sonny : okay , i 'll tell you what i 'm going to do , all right ? i want to pick you up in the speedboat ; we 're going to come home across the harbor . you love that ? kate : i love that . sonny : you love that ? kate : mm - hmm . sonny : all right . bye . kate : bye . sonny : what the hell is going on ? diane : nothing . max : nothing , nothing . diane : nothing . sonny : okay , if this is about me and kate getting married , i do n't want to hear it . if you do n't like it , i 'm accepting resignations . no ? good . because , as you can obviously see , we are very much in love and i would very much appreciate it if the people that we care about gave us a little bit of support . now , we are happy . we are getting married . end of story . [ scene_break ] lucky : i remember when i was staying here , leaving my room voluntarily -- lulu : do you know how awful it feels when you hide things from me ? it 's like you do n't trust me enough to tell me the truth . lucky : it 's not about trust . lulu : all right , nikolas , can you please give me an update ? nikolas : lulu , do n't play us off of each other . lulu : well , the difference is you respect my decisions and my feelings . lucky , on the other hand , thinks i 'm a hysterical kid who does n't know what 's good for her . lucky : lulu , we both want you to get well . lulu : then tell me the truth . something happened . nikolas : lucky , whatever it is , it 's best she hear it from you . lucky : scott claims he has evidence that logan was acting as an undercover cop . lulu : what ? that 's crazy . scott wanted logan to be a cop , but logan was n't interested . lucky : i know , scott has proof . nikolas : probably forged , not that it really matters . but listen , if logan really was a cop , that makes his killing murder with special circumstances , right ? lucky : he 's right . if he gets convicted , he could get the death penalty . [ scene_break ] scott : the prosecution calls assistant coroner , robert banner . dr . banner , how long have you been a coroner ? dr . banner : three years in port charles , but ten years before that in buffalo . scott : so , when you say that logan hayes had been dead for two hours when you found him outside the clinic , is that more than an educated guess ? dr . banner : that 's right . we can pinpoint the time of death between 6 : 00 and 9 : 00 p.m . scott : what was the cause of death ? dr . banner : the victim died of a single stab wound , probably from a large kitchen knife . ric : is this the kind of knife that killed logan hayes ? dr . banner : it 's possible . ric : uh , how about this one ? dr . banner : that could be it , too . ric : really ? well , this is from my kitchen . and this is from the port charles police department lunch room . now , i have to ask you , dr . banner , is n't it possible that there are thousands of kitchens that have the exact same kind of knife matching the one that killed logan hayes ? dr . banner : yes . ric : yes . no more questions , your honor . judge aroyo : mr. baldwin , next witness . scott : i call detective david harper . [ scene_break ] spinelli : the jackal appreciates the master 's heartening pep talk . while he is flattered by the compliments offered , he still feels compelled to point out that he remains deficient in all facets of manly prowess . jason : i lost michael this year . i basically lost sonny . you 're one of the few remaining friends i have left . look , i 'm not going to tell you what to do , but selfishly , i do n't want you to die , especially doing something stupid like surveillance . spinelli : yeah , but that 's a skill that i wish to cultivate , along with a greater ease and accuracy with firearms and maybe even general proficiency in martial -- jason : yeah , but there 's nothing manly about getting shot at or carrying a gun . why ca n't you learn to trust yourself the way i trust you ? [ scene_break ] lulu : there must be a way to prove that scott is lying . lucky : judge was n't interested . lulu : okay , scott wants revenge for logan . he 's not going to be happy until johnny is dead , too . nikolas : maybe you could still appeal . lulu : johnny is a zacchara . he 's not going to last a week in prison . lucky : and his family will protect him . the best lawyer money can buy . lulu : i have to testify . nikolas : no , how -- of course , absolutely not . lucky : scott will twist everything you say . nikolas : the way to help john is to get well . lulu : okay , you know what ? can you -- will you just see johnny for me and tell him that i love him and i believe in him ? nikolas : of course i will . lucky : lulu , try not to worry . you need to save every ounce of strength for yourself . lulu : johnny is on trial because of me . [ scene_break ] [ knock at door ] jerry : hello , little brother . you busy ? jax : no . actually , i wanted to show you something . jerry : is that the new house ? alexis told me you had big plans . nice . jax : you still hanging out with her , huh ? jerry : well , she 's entirely devoted to you . i do n't know how comfortable i am with that . jax : if she 's asked you to persuade me that my relationship with carly will never work , you can save your breath . jerry : do you know how annoying it is that she 's so territorial when it comes to you ? jax : oh , really ? well , that 's because we want what 's best for each other . sometimes we just disagree on what that is . jerry : well , you see , alexis is as misguided by carly being bad for you as you are about me being bad for alexis . but , as your older brother , i 'm here to tell you that carly is the best thing that will happen to you . [ scene_break ] carly : hey , tim , good job with brunch yesterday . tim : oh , thanks , mrs. jacks . carly : have you seen mr. jacks ? tim : i have n't seen him yet . carly : oh , thanks . tim : sure . sonny : carly . carly : hey . if you 're looking for kate , she 's probably up in her office . sonny : no , no , i 'm looking for you . carly : any particular reason why ? sonny : i just got back from the island . and i took kate . carly : it 's pretty there this time of year . sonny : it brought up a lot of stuff . listen , it 's time for you and me to make this right . [ scene_break ] spinelli : what is this nourishment you bring ? jason : tomato soup and some crackers . spinelli : the jackal 's well - being is generally dependant on large quantities of orange soda and barbeque chips . jason : yeah , maybe you should lay off the junk for a few days . spinelli : aw , considering what the jackal went through at the hands of medical personnel poking and prodding and meals consisting of large amounts of brightly colored yet flavorless gelatin , it seems like a harmless pick - me - up would do me wonders . you know , something to lift my spirits and carry me on the wings of bliss to a speedy recovery . [ knock at door ] spinelli : what ? maxie : oh , good . this stuff weighs a ton . and could you be really careful with this stuff ? it 's my hair products . hi ! spinelli : hey . what an unexpected surprise . jason : um , wait , what is this ? why all these bags ? maxie : well , someone has to stay here to take care of spinelli . [ scene_break ] laura : honey ? you look upset . lulu : every time things start to get better , they get worse again . laura : i saw you out here with your brothers . is it too much for me to ask you to try to keep that secret ? lulu : lucky and nikolas would be so happy if they knew about you , but i understand why you do n't want them to know . laura : then , something else is bothering you ? is it logan ? lulu : in a way . johnny 's murder trial started today , and the d.a . 's office -- laura : what ? lulu : it does n't matter . there 's nothing you can do -- laura : it does matter . i can tell it matters a lot to you . are you trying to protect me from something ? please , do n't do that . i 'm your mother . talk to me . lulu : scott baldwin forged some document so that it looked like logan was an undercover cop , which means if johnny is convicted , he 'll be facing the death penalty in my place . [ scene_break ] det . harper : the evidence indicated that the victim was murdered elsewhere and his body dropped at the clinic . ric : and on what do you base your conclusion ? det . harper : my experience as a homicide detective . ric : okay . so , in fact , elsewhere could mean anywhere within a three - hour drive of port charles , is that correct ? det . harper : or three blocks . ric : well , for example , it could have been , say , a botched robbery or a gang killing ? det . harper : as long as the gang member drives a late model , high end sedan with matching carpet fibers . ric : so , in fact , in your experience , detective , in homicide , if a person with severe stab wounds were to be dropped at a free clinic , would n't you conclude that the person who dropped them there in the first place was trying to get them medical help or save their life ? det . harper : the victim had already been dead for at least two to three hours . ric : well , yes , but you do n't have any evidence that shows that my client killed logan hayes deliberately or otherwise . no proof that shows he had intent . det . harper : we do n't have an eyewitness , no . ric : no more questions , your honor . judge aroyo : you may step down , detective . [ scene_break ] anthony : he let him off the hook . trevor : no . richie 's doing better than i expected . [ scene_break ] edward : this is a waste of time . zacchara killed logan . why do n't we just find him guilty and move on ? judge aroyo : juror number two , please save your conversations for the jury room . edward : well , we 're all entitled to our own opinions . judge aroyo : not until all the evidence has been presented . do i need to go over the jury rules with you yet again ? edward : i 'll thank you not to patronize me , judge . judge aroyo : you can be quiet or i 'll send you to lockup on contempt and replace you with an alternate . mr. baldwin , call your next witness . scott : the state calls claudia zacchara . bailiff : do you swear to tell the truth , the whole truth , and nothing but the truth , so help you god ? [ scene_break ] jax : i know that things can be complicated with carly . sometimes the things i love about her are the things that drive us apart . jerry : well , i was wondering how many times you can survive that . jax : she needed to show me that we are equally committed and i have no doubt that we are . [ scene_break ] sonny : we noticed the sea shell collection . carly : do you remember the first time we took michael shell hunting ? he was determined to find the biggest and best shell . he had his eyes glued to the sand . sonny : yeah , he walked backward in the surf and then a wave just kind of knocked him down . carly : yeah . thank god you were there to save him . sonny : i should have packed up those shells up , and just -- right after the divorce and sent them to you . carly : why ? sonny : well , i mean -- carly : no , those shells belong on the island . that 's where the boys and i found them . sonny : we had fun . you know , we had our two sons there and i appreciate all the times you saved me . carly : you saved me , too . so , um , maybe in the end , that makes us even . i want you to know that i wish you the best . i really do . sonny : why the change of heart ? carly : because i love jax , and i had to lose him to find out how much he means to me and how perfect he is for me . so , i want the same for you . if kate is the woman who is going to put a smile on your face , then i wish you nothing but happiness . [ scene_break ] kate : well , actually all the planning i 've done for the wedding is just falling into place . it 's as if the angels are looking down on me . clarice : not that you 're superstitious . kate : no , i 'm so excited that you 're coming to the wedding . oh , i 'm sure by the time it rolls around i 'll be a complete mess . no -- why do n't you just talk to clarice . she can make all the arrangements for the hotel . okay , bye- bye . sorry . there 's one more thing you have to do . you have to arrange a block of rooms for all the out - of - town guests , okay ? clarice : i 'll do whatever you want , kate . kate : so , i 'm here , as promised . if you still needed to talk to me , i 'm all yours . clarice : kate , you know i love you . kate : clarice ? you are not quitting . you are not . did giselle offer you a raise ? clarice : what ? no , of course not . my loyalty is to you . and that 's why i have to say this . kate : oh , clarice , what -- what 's wrong ? clarice : i do n't want to see you hurt , ever . but i know you , and you 'd rather know about something like this than be left in the dark . kate : okay , um , like what ? clarice : when you were on the island , i went to drop the portfolio for the museum shoot off at sonny 's . diane and max did n't realize i was there , and i heard them talking . now , i promise you , i listened very carefully . i would never come to you unless i was absolutely certain . kate : about what , clarice ? clarice : back in may , when michael corinthos was shot , sonny and carly had sex .Summarize.[/INST]it becomes clear that there is at least one juror already putting johnny in the gas chamber as edward loudly mutters his surety that he 's guilty . the judge allows scott to go ahead with the notion that logan was a cop , so john 's life is on the line , a fact lucky is very wary about revealing to lulu until she and nikolas pressure him into it . diane and max try to figure out how to keep kate from finding out what clarice knows , but as the show ends , she 's about to learn the truth . carly officially gives her blessing to sonny and kate , saying how happy she is with jax . he seems equally even more in love with her and reprimands clarice for setting carly up . alexis ' worry about carly and jax being a bad combination stalls jerry 's hopes of romance . jason tries to convince the jackal that he 's a better person than jason is , but is cut short by maxie arriving to take care of spinelli .</s> | 11,442 |

victor : you 're sure you 're not gon na join me ? victoria : no , i 'm fine . thank you . victor : well , then i suggest we toast your return to newman enterprises . victoria : we 've already done that . victor : oh , we have , have n't we ? well , then , why do n't we toast to those who attempt to destroy us ? and may they be destroyed in the process . victoria : i 'm not sure if you mean zack . victor : i mean everyone , my darling . they wo n't beat us . victoria : they ca n't go after a corpse , so they 're coming after us for the financial link to the sex ring . but they ca n't prove that we were involved because we were n't involved . victor : [ groans ] there 's a little wrinkle in this tragic saga . apparently the gun that was used to kill that zack fellow ... belonged to a newman . nikki : it actually looks worse than it is . it 's healing pretty nicely . paul : good to hear . nikki : so , i appreciate you wanting to get together , but if it 's about everything with dina the other night , i 'd really rather not . actually , i wish all the charges were just dropped . paul : well , that 's a very generous take on things , nikki , but this has to do with zack stinnett 's death . ballistics came back on the weapon . he was shot with your gun . scott : tessa ! hey ! i thought that was you outside . how you doing ? tessa : i was , um ... just about to ask paul if he had an update on my sister . i want her home , but i 'm worried the minute they find her , they 'll arrest her for killing zack . scott : well , crystal 's the reason abby and i are alive right now . we 'll remind paul daily if we have to . tessa : you have more faith than i do . when you publish the story about the sex ring , if you could protect crystal , i mean , change her name at least ... scott : i wo n't be needing any names . the story is n't happening . tessa : why not ? scott : because pretty soon , i wo n't have a forum to publish it in . victoria newman saw to that . abby : hey ! lily : hey . um , the hashtag site 's not working . abby : uh , that 's an understatement . [ scoffs ] lily : something happen ? abby : it 's a long story . lily : well , i just assumed that the site would cover everything you went through because what i heard about that night is terrifying , and the fact that you 've come out stronger for it ? my admiration for you could n't be higher . abby : thank you . seriously , thank you for saying that . because all i 've heard is what an idiot i am for not realizing that zack was some evil criminal mastermind . lily : no , no one would ever think that . abby : oh , people think it . they even give press conferences about it . lily : well , do n't be so hard on yourself . you 're not psychic . how could you have ever seen through zack ? abby : [ scoffs ] ask my sister . victoria has the answer to everything . additional sponsorship [ cellphone rings ] jack : hilary ? hilary : hi , jack . i tried your office , but they said that you were n't reachable . jack : yeah , i 'm working out of the house today , one of the perks . what can i do for you ? hilary : well , i was hoping that dina might be interested in coming on my show . jack : you want my mother on gc buzz -- why ? hilary : well , i have n't had her on in a while , and i thought it 'd be nice to get an update on what the great dina mergeron has been up to since selling her company to hamilton - winters . jack : she 's decided to step away from the public eye for right now . hilary : come on , jack . it 'll be a breath of fresh air after all of this doom and gloom that has been in the news recently . jack : that 's my other line . i got to run . i 'll talk to you soon . mariah : so , devon and i decided that we should just be good friends , which is probably what we should have been from the beginning . sharon : well , it 's always good to take a chance . mariah : yeah , unless you get slapped down and look like a complete loser , then , no , it 's not that good to take a chance . sharon : oh , sweetheart ... mariah : no , no , no . do n't do the `` sweetheart `` voice . i 'm fine . really . i 'm great . things turned out the way that they probably always should have , you know ? i -- i do n't have a boyfriend , or a girlfriend , for that matter , but , um , i refuse to be a walking pity party . sharon : of course . you know , you 've been through a rough time . self - care is important . mariah : this is me we 're talking about ! i am the queen of self - care . i mean , i got up this morning and i showered . and now since i have all of this free time , i was thinking about getting into a hobby . maybe scrapbooking . sharon : you 're deflecting . mariah : all signs point to maybe . sharon : i do n't want to push , okay ? i 'm just happy to have company . mariah : so , what is on the menu for your schmancy dinner with scott ? sharon : well , roasted salmon , baby potatoes , asparagus , and a tarragon sauce . mariah : yum . evidently , it pays to be trapped in a storage locker . sharon : look how good we both are at changing the subject . i 'm so proud of us . mariah : and you just changed it right back . sharon : i did . mariah : [ chuckles ] sharon : i know it hurts right now , mariah , but try not to shut down , try to stay open . surprises happen . you know , the right person will come along when the last thing you 're even thinking about is romance . that 's what happened for me and scott , and look at us now . abby : and just like that , hashtag gets the ax . lily : well , i mean , victoria is pragmatic , and it sounds like it was a business decision , so i know it 's not easy to swallow , but sometimes it 's necessary . abby : are you trying to convince me or yourself ? lily : [ chuckles ] look , i 'll admit , i do n't get it , but she 's coo now , you know ? it 's our job to back her up . abby : yeah , but that does n't mean we have to automatically become good little corporate soldiers . lily : [ chuckles ] well , i do like having a paycheck . abby : even if it 's not the same paycheck or title you used to have ? yeah , i heard . lily : look , victoria said that it was out of her hands . abby : and how does that work , exactly , for the coo ? i mean , she either has the power , or she doesn't . you ca n't have it both ways . just like she thinks it 's my fault that i did n't know what zack was up to , but when she was at brash & sassy , she had no idea what billy or cane or juliet ... i 'm sorry . i -- i should n't have said that . i 'm really sorry . lily : no , it 's fine . do n't worry about it . you 're not wrong , okay ? i will admit that victoria does seem different now that she 's back at newman . i feel like there 's more shades of victor coming to the surface . abby : well , to you , she seems different . to me , she 's exactly the same . victoria : i still do n't understand how it was mom 's gun that crystal used to shoot zack . victor : well , i have n't talked to your mother about this . i mean , i do n't know if she took her gun when she moved out of the ranch . victoria : regardless , it had to have been stolen , right ? victor : your mother 's gon na make it very difficult to distance newman from this scandal . victoria : abby dropped this scandal on our doorstep . victor : sweetheart , all she was trying to do is prove to me that she could attract a cutting - edge business . victoria : she attracted illegal and illicit instead . victor : oh , she did n't do that intentionally . come on , now . be a little bit more forgiving . okay ? i mean , she went through hell and back with that zack guy . victoria : so , the newman guns are kept in a safe . is there any way that abby could have access to the combination ? victor : what do you mean ? you mean she took it ? victoria : one of our firearms was found in the motel room . i 'm just following the bread crumbs here . victor : wait a minute . abby was locked up in a storage facility . before then , she was at a party . she would n't take a gun to a celebration . and if she had had a gun , that zack guy would not have been able to lock her up in the storage facility . victoria : regardless , abby may have had access to mom 's gun . victor : what are you suggesting , that she killed zack ? victoria : how else to explain this weapon ? abby was victimized by a sociopath . she was scared for her life . he had his own gun . no one would blame her if she shot him . the press would be sympathetic . victor : wait a minute . victoria : just hear me out . with all of that sympathy on her side , the fact that she brought zack into newman would lose some of its heat , do n't you think ? victor : so you think this is the stand the company should take ? victoria : of course . victor : i do n't think abby will see it that way . so what 's our next step ? tessa : i 'm -- i 'm sorry about hashtag . scott : and i 'm sorry we ca n't publish that story . it was meant to help crystal and other women like her , and i know you both were counting on that . tessa : even though i was n't there , all i can think about is crystal in that motel room , feeling like she had no other option except for pulling a trigger and killing a guy . scott : a bad guy . do n't forget that . i won't . nikki : obviously i would have no idea how a gun that is supposedly registered to me ended up in a seedy motel somewhere . paul : mm , so that 's it ? you 're not even gon na try ? nikki : okay . you got me . i was in on it . i mean , in spite of the fact that i had just been stabbed , i got in my car and i drove out to some motel god knows where and i shot that zack . and then i begged scott and abby to say that it was one of the victims . that 's exactly what happened . so , slap the cuffs on me . let 's get this over with . paul : so , the night of the party , at the top of the tower , did you bring your gun with you ? nikki : you 're asking me if i was armed at a newman event ? no , i was n't , but looking back on it , i probably should have been . paul : the only reason i ask is someone could have taken the gun from your purse . or you could have handed it off . nikki : none of that happened . i did n't have it , okay ? paul : okay , so , you do n't keep track of your firearms . nikki : gee , you know , it never occurred to me to do that . no ! when i left the ranch , i did n't have the gun with me . i do n't know where it is . i do n't know when the last time was i had it . paul : maybe i should ask victor , but i already did , and he could n't say what happened to the firearm , either . nikki : what were you expecting , a different reply ? paul : at this point , i do n't know what to expect , but there is one thing i know for certain . someone is lying . mariah : we are so different . sharon : where did that come from ? mariah : well , despite our shared genetic makeup , you want to talk about emotions and feelings and relationships , whereas i would rather chomp on glass . sharon : well , talking is less painful . mariah : is it ? sharon : i do n't mean to push . mariah : no , you 're great . you 're doing exactly what a good mom should . you 're being supportive and invested . it 's just -- you 're never gon na really understand how this feels . i mean , take you and scott for instance . all you did was pour him a cup of coffee , and cartoon hearts shot out of his eyes . boom . sharon : that is not what happened at all . mariah : i put myself out there this last time , i shared my feelings , and ... i got shot down . hard . sharon : and you think i ca n't relate ? i 've had my share of romantic misery , and you 've been there for plenty of it . mariah : i know , i know . i 'm sorry . it 's just everything seems so solid with you and scott . i mean , that has to make you feel good , right ? sharon : except when he goes and gets himself kidnapped , sure . i worried a lot about him when he was gone . but i worry about him now . it seems like he 's been a little bit different since he got back . mariah : yeah , but that 's not you . it 's the trauma . abby : i know he 's not in yet , but please make sure he gets that . thank you . victoria : abby , i 'm so glad i ran into you . do you have a moment ? abby : uh , only a second . i have a conference call . victor : sweetheart , will you join us ? there 's something we need to discuss together , okay ? it will just be a minute . abby : okay . victoria : mitigating this sex ring scandal is crucial . neil 's doing his best to handle all of the media , but we need to put as much distance as we can between ourselves and this bad publicity , and fast . victor : what you have you to know is that i was questioned by the authorities , including paul williams . they 're trying very hard to construct a case against us . abby : well , i 'm sorry to hear that . i know how much the reputation of this company and our family means to you . it means a lot to me , as well . victoria : good , then i assume that means you wo n't mind giving a public statement . people need to know that newman was never complicit with zack and his criminal activities . abby : okay , yeah , i will start working on one right now . victoria : no . no need . i 've written one up . abby : oh . victoria : and since obviously time is not on our side , we 'll be scheduling a press conference for later today , during which we 'll need you to read exactly what we 've written up here . nikki : all right , i 'm not gon na take it personally that you just accused me of knowing about this gun , but if you bring it up again , we are gon na have a problem . paul : nik , i am only asking the questions that have to be asked . like , why do you own a gun in the first place ? nikki : [ sighs ] paul , you know how victor is . he wanted me to know how to operate a gun . he 's not home a lot . we live out in the middle of nowhere . he wants me to be safe . paul : right , i understand he wants you to be safe , but you 're not alone . you have a full security team , you have a household staff . nikki : paul , i want to help you , but i do n't know what to say . i am just as surprised as you are that that gun was involved in that murder -- albeit , the victim himself is n't really a loss to society ... paul : nikki , i understand your reasoning for saying that , but given who the murder weapon tracks back to , best maybe not to vocalize that in a public place . nikki : why , because it can and will be used against me ? paul : given your history , i do n't think it 's a really good idea to endorse vigilantism , especially with your own weapon . nikki : oh , my god , so now we 're talking about my father , another sicko who took advantage of young girls ! paul : okay , you 're right , all that is true . however ... nikki : i would like to help you , but i do n't know how i can . paul : [ sighs ] okay . nikki : paul , believe me when i say that i have no idea who stole that gun . paul : nikki , this is n't going away . your gun was never reported stolen . so the authorities have no choice but to focus on newman enterprises , the ranch , and victor -- that 's it . nikki : well , to think that victor had anything to do with it is ridiculous . i mean , it 's absolutely crazy . paul : [ scoffs ] the feds wo n't necessarily see it that way . nikki : tessa . tessa : nikki . uh , hi ! i did n't want to interrupt you and chief williams . nikki : mm - hmm . he and i are done . you and i are just getting started . victoria : dad and i have some meetings scheduled , so while we take care of business , i need you to consider this the only thing on your to - do list . i need you to be honest and straightforward with plenty of humility . i 'll see you later at the press conference , okay ? abby : no , we need to talk about this . victoria : no , i 'm sorry , abby , there 's just no time . so just deliver this verbatim , and then things should start to go away . look , you 're a team player , i know that . victor : sweetheart , you 'll do fine , okay ? now , if you do n't mind , victoria and i have some business to discuss . abby : wow . scott : hey . what 's going on ? you okay ? abby : not really , no . scott : care to elaborate ? abby : here . read . enjoy . scott : no ... abby : yep . scott : are they serious with this ? abby : yeah , this is supposed to be my mea culpa to the world . i 'm supposed to play up the fact that i was a victim and should be pitied , and at the same time , make myself look completely pathetic while i announce to the whole world that everything that happened was because of my `` inexperience and naivete . `` scott : and this part -- that you did n't share any doubts about zack with your father -- i mean , your his flak jacket , making him bulletproof . abby : yeah ! oh , oh ! and look at the bottom . this is my favorite part . `` victoria newman will assume all responsibility for future company acquisitions , and i can assure you that newman business will once again be conducted to the highest standards . `` scott : what they 're asking -- abby : oh , no , no , no . they did n't ask . they ordered . i mean , how am i supposed to do that ? how am i supposed to read it with a straight face ? i can't . i won't . scott : no . no , you should . abby : really ? you 're gon na have her side now , after what she did to hashtag ? scott : no . no , no , no . you should read this , though , definitely . all it needs is a little editing . paul : sorry to drop by unannounced , but , uh , i figured you 'd want to hear this in person . jack : is it about my mother ? paul : the battery charge . the da 's office has been in contact with a judge to try and set a trial date . i 'm sorry , jack , they 're gon na fast - track this thing . jack : there 's nothing we can do about this ? i can call nikki . paul : no , she wants to let it go , but it 's not up to her . the altercation was in public , there were witnesses ... dina is very high profile , and the message has to be sent that no one is above the law . jack : the message ? that 's what this is about ? pr for the city ? something for christine to campaign on when she runs for office again ? paul : look , jack , i came by as a courtesy , so maybe you could plan , maybe you could strategize and cut a deal . although i do n't think prison time is unavoidable in this situation . jack : i -- the whole thing ... i 'm sorry , i was out of line for what i said about christine . i 'm sorry . paul : it 's all right . i understand how stressful this is . and not just for you , but for the entire family . jack : if only it were just the battery charges . paul : what -- what are you talking about ? jack : i think we 're going to have add arson to my mother 's list of crimes . paul : what are you saying ? jack : the underground . in all likelihood , my mother started that fire , and she 's not doing time for that , she 's not doing time for what she did to nikki ... paul : oh , wait a minute , jack , if you think i can make this go away , i can't . jack : no . i can . paul : what is this ? have you already seen a lawyer ? jack : not exactly . that is my mother 's medical file . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . tessa : you think i stole your gun ? nikki : drop the act , tessa . and before you come up with some ridiculous lie , i want you to remember all the kindness and generosity i gave you . tessa : i am grateful for everything you did for me . nikki : that gun was under lock and key for a reason . you gave it to your sister crystal ! tessa : okay . okay , yeah , i did it . i took the gun . but i did n't know it was yours . paul : all this is accurate ? jack : alzheimer 's . and not the early stages . paul : how long have you known ? jack : ash and i just found out . mother has apparently known for some time now . paul : well , this changes things . jack : paul , i am no expert on alzheimer 's -- yet -- but i know this . there is no way my mother knew what she was doing when she stabbed nikki , or when she did what she did at the underground . it was n't until after a conversation with nick that i realized what had happened . when i confronted my mother , she had no recollection whatsoever . when i jogged her memory , when she finally admitted that she 'd been there , that she might be responsible , i wish you could have seen the devastation on her face . paul , you can call her doctor , you can visit with him . we had no idea what we were dealing with until the night of ashley 's party at top of the tower . we know now . we can be more vigilant now . nothing like this could happen again . you have my personal guarantee . no one could prosecute her for this -- not christine , not a jury ... paul : i understand . i am -- i am sorry . i can only imagine . you hear friends talk about situations like this , and i guess every situation is different but in some ways the same . jack : yeah . paul : and as far as the charges go , um ... i ca n't see that the da 's office will see an upside to prosecuting someone in dina 's condition . i will send in my recommendation as soon as possible that all criminal charges be dropped . jack : thank you , paul . i owe you big . paul : it 's not a favor , jack . it 's the right thing . i mean , dina and your entire family are going through a lot . it 's not gon na get any easier . jack : [ sighs ] victoria : the main thing that i want to get out of this press conference is for people to realize that abby is relatively new to serious business , but we should play up the sympathy angle regarding her mistakes , i think . lily : um ... victoria : lily , is there something that you want to say ? lily : yeah , i just wanted to know what abby 's reaction was when you and victor asked her to speak to the press . victoria : abby realizes that we need to put the company first . lily : well , you know that she would never intentionally hurt the newman image , right ? victoria : no . no one thinks that she did this intentionally , not for one minute , but the damage has been done , and that 's what we have to fix . excuse me . how did you get in here ? how did you get past security ? hilary : i 'm press . lily : [ scoffs ] barely . hilary : and i heard that there was a press conference , and i 'd like to stream it live on my website . victoria : that conference is n't public knowledge yet . hilary : well , it pays to have excellent sources . now , i have n't been able to confirm the topic yet , but i can only assume -- victoria : leave now . hilary : that 's not the way it works . victoria : you do n't get to dictate the rules because maybe you did n't notice on your way in here -- the newman name is on the building . so that means you have one of two choices . you can escort yourself out , or i can have security throw you out , but there 's no way in hell you 're staying for this press conference , not after you ambushed me at the club the other day . hilary : i was giving you a platform , an opportunity to refute the allegations that newman was involved in zack 's little side project . if anything , you should be thanking me for exposing jordan . you would still be employing a con artist if i had n't lifted the veil on his grifter ways . lily : jordan ? what are you talking about ? hilary : [ scoffs ] you do n't watch my show , do you ? lily : no , i 'm sorry , i have a life . hilary : okay , well , i wo n't spoil it for you , but let 's just say this -- your biggest fan , he 's got some major issues . go on , check out the archives . juicy stuff . abby : this part just sounds so ... i do n't know . scott : okay . well , how about this ? abby : yeah . i like it . hey , you know , i 'm -- i 'm sorry about hashtag . i think it was a huge mistake for victoria to shut it down . that sex - trafficking story , it was n't just important for the victims and for law enforcement , but for everyone out there . they need to know that things like that , they actually happen . scott : well , who said it 's shut down ? abby : uh , the coo of newman enterprises ? scott : abby , i 've been held hostage , interviewed dictators , dodged bullets , and manage to deal with you on a regular basis . i think i can find my way around a few it guys . but right now , let 's focus on your statement . so , how about ... this ? abby : mm . i do n't know . i was thinking more like ... that . scott : better , except for the fact that you ca n't spell . abby : oh , my gosh , i can totally spell ! you just ca n't read cursive ! scott : not when it 's illegible . abby : if you 're just gon na judge me , then why are you even helping me ? scott : because . because , um , i think this could benefit both of us . [ cellphone chimes ] abby : um , sharon . scott : oh . she 's , uh -- she 's making dinner for me . she probably wants to know when i 'll be over . abby : you should reply . scott : i 'll get back to her when we 're done here . abby : have n't you put that woman through enough ? you at least owe her some common courtesy . scott : i know exactly how much i owe her . besides , i think we 're making some really good progress here . abby : you know what , um , i think i got it . thank you for your help , but you really should get to dinner . scott : no way . i 'm not letting you go to that press conference by yourself . no backup ? abby : [ chuckles ] you think i ca n't handle it . scott : i threw some big words in there . abby : only so you could sound smart . scott : [ scoffs ] abby : you know , it 's funny how your ego and insecurity are the exact same size . hmm . let 's see here ... jack : hello , victor . victor : jack , i would stay and chat , but i have a press conference to attend . jack : uh - huh . i assume this has something to do with your company backing an organized sex - trafficking operation ? victor : [ chuckles ] this has to do with my company having been blindsided . jack : boy , i 'm glad i 'm not dealing with that . jack : you tell your mother to stay away from nikki . jack : oh , that wo n't be an issue . nikki and i are no longer seeing each other . tessa : what i did was for crystal 's sake . zack had natalia murdered like she was nothing . all i could think was my sister was next . nikki : when i brought you into my house , i did n't realize you were a safe- cracker . tessa : it 's not like that . i had the combination . nikki : how ? tessa : from you . nikki : i think i would have remembered that . tessa : it was during the benefit , when things were crazy . it was on a stack of papers you handed me , and i tried not to look or care , but ... i guess it stuck in my head . my curiosity got the better of me . i opened the safe and saw two guns . look , i did n't know who they belonged to . i just took the smaller one because i thought it 'd be easier to hide . nikki : well , now paul is grilling me for owning a gun that was used in a homicide . the police are very curious to know how it got into crystal 's hands . tessa : are you gon na tell them it was me ? nikki : you used to live in my home and crystal is your sister , so my guess would be that they already know ! you know , you could get into a lot more trouble than this . you could be an accessory , even worse ! tessa : i -- i did n't mean to . i ... what did i do ? nikki : the next time your sister gets a sex trafficker off the streets , you tell her not to drop the damn gun . lily : what the hell ? jordan : i 'm guessing you saw hilary 's takedown . lily : yeah , i heard about it , and it was disgusting , conning lonely women like that ... jordan : a long time ago . hilary 's bitter . she has to tear apart anyone who gets on her bad side . this week , it 's me . lily : you know what kills me is your hypocrisy . you never pass a chance to take a shot at cane , acting like you were so good and righteous . jordan : i told you i 'd done things that i was n't too proud of . lily : you never went into detail , you kept things vague . but you always made sure to be by my side , acting like you were so much more decent than my husband . jordan : look , i do n't want to fight with you , lily . bottom line , i screwed up . in the past . but cane cheated on you and broke your heart . all i ever wanted to do was make you happy . my history does not make that a lie . hilary : well , this looks like fun , hmm ? lily : [ sighs ] this is a private conversation . jordan : it 's a finished conversation . look , you -- you get off on inflicting pain . you -- from the way you defend cane , maybe you like suffering , and me , i ... i 'm out of here . i have to lay low for a while . hilary : well , good , because i 've been waiting to see the back of you for a long time . jordan : i left something for you to remember me by . hilary : [ scoffs ] what does that mean ? jordan : stay tuned . mariah : all right . sharon : perfect . mariah : i think my work is done here , so i 'm gon na make myself scarce . but if there are any leftovers ... sharon : oh , they 're all yours . mariah : good . did scott text you back ? sharon : no , i think he must have gotten caught in traffic or work or something . mariah : well , once he walks into this oasis of fine dining and romance , i 'm sure all of that will melt away . i hope he does n't take you for granted . sharon : no , that would never happen . mariah : good , because then he 'll have to answer to me . sharon : [ chuckles ] victoria : oh , abby , hi . good . i was hoping that we could talk through what 's about to happen . abby : okay . victoria : just , uh , you know , be yourself . keep things short and simple , and if you feel like getting emotional , go ahead . you 've been through a lot . abby : i 've got this . victoria : good . okay . so , as soon as dad gets back from his meeting , we 're gon na start . abby : that 's fine . i can wait . scott : how you feeling ? abby : do you want me to word - vomit my anxiety on you , or just say `` fine ? `` scott : let me think on that . abby : he 's here . victoria : thank you for coming , ladies and gentlemen . newman enterprises is aware of the current controversy swirling around the recent incidents with the designdate app . our company is devoted to transparency , so in that spirit , we feel that a statement is in order . please give your attention to abby newman . abby : [ sighs ] thank you all for coming . i 've prepared a statement ... mariah : hey , why are n't you there ? hilary : shh ! shh ! i want to hear this . abby : any and all questions can be directed to power communications at a later time . [ cellphone chimes ] abby : as you all know , i recently suffered a traumatic experience ... mariah : hey , what 's going on ? hilary : i do n't know . it 's an alert from our website . i did n't authorize any ... [ cellphones chime ] mariah : oh . wow . you can scroll . there are ... a lot of pictures showing a lot of you . hilary : jordan ! abby : but now the worst is over , and i 've taken a few days to reflect on everything that led to those disturbing events , and i would like to say how personally sorry i am for everything that happened . but there is a matter that i would like to clear up , since there seems to be some confusion surrounding the facts . all of us here at newman enterprises were duped by a master manipulator , a murdering criminal . this man brought me his idea for designdate , and i developed it through my tech incubator project . newman enterprises then absorbed the incubator and all companies involved . as things progressed , i received support and expertise from my father , victor newman . side by side we did our due diligence , never knowing that we were being taken advantage of by zack stinnett . that man alone is responsible for everything that happened . my associate scott grainger and i have been portrayed as victims , but that is not how we see it . the way we see it , however , is that we stood up to a violent criminal , never thinking about the cost . we exposed him and his activities when others could not . some people want to blame me for the impact this has had on newman enterprises -- my father for one , my sister for another , who only recently became coo at newman enterprises after her relative inexperience cost her dearly at her failing company . the details behind designdate 's criminal activities and how they are tied to an organized sex- trafficking ring are too extensive to get into here , but you can read all about it firsthand on hashtag , written by mr . grainger . take a look . one thing will be abundantly clear . there is no blame on this side of the podium for anything that went down . [ next_on ] nick : what the hell 's the holdup , paul ? i mean , how are we gon na get this person who torched my club ? paul : we don't . devon : is there anything that i can do for you ? hilary : can you meet me ? i have a proposal for you . abby : i 'll save you the trouble of firing me . i quit . | scott promised tessa that he and abby would vouch for crystal if she was ever faced charges for killing zack . paul asked nikki how her gun came to be used to kill zack . nikki swore she had no idea . paul thought that either she or victor was lying . after a confrontation with nikki , tessa confessed to stealing the gun from the ranch and giving it to crystal for protection . victor told victoria that zack was killed with nikki 's gun . victoria mulled over taking the heat off the family by having abby confess to killing zack in self defense . lily and abby discussed the decisions victoria was making at newman . with victor 's approval , victoria presented abby with a statement to read at a press conference . the statement said that the scandal happened as a result of abby 's naïveté . abby vented about the statement to scott , and he helped her edit victoria 's words . paul told jack that dina would likely have to serve time for stabbing nikki . jack revealed that dina had alzheimer 's and that she set fire to nick 's club . paul promised to recommend that the charges be dropped , due to dina 's condition . sharon urged mariah not to give up on finding love . sharon cooked a meal for scott and told mariah that he 'd been distant . scott was busy helping abby and he ignored sharon 's text about dinner . hilary tried to attend the newman press conference , but victoria kicked her out . lily overheard hilary mention that jordan was a con artist . lily read about jordan 's past on hilary 's site and confronted him . jordan had words with hilary and lily . jack told victor that he broke up with nikki . jordan posted hilary 's nude photos on her show 's website for everyone to see . abby gave her press conference , and she stood up for herself instead of falling on her sword as victor and victoria had instructed her to . abby revealed that victor and victoria blamed her , noted that victoria became coo after her own company failed and she announced that scott had published the hashtag article on the sex ring , despite being ordered not to . | <s>[INST] victor : you 're sure you 're not gon na join me ? victoria : no , i 'm fine . thank you . victor : well , then i suggest we toast your return to newman enterprises . victoria : we 've already done that . victor : oh , we have , have n't we ? well , then , why do n't we toast to those who attempt to destroy us ? and may they be destroyed in the process . victoria : i 'm not sure if you mean zack . victor : i mean everyone , my darling . they wo n't beat us . victoria : they ca n't go after a corpse , so they 're coming after us for the financial link to the sex ring . but they ca n't prove that we were involved because we were n't involved . victor : [ groans ] there 's a little wrinkle in this tragic saga . apparently the gun that was used to kill that zack fellow ... belonged to a newman . nikki : it actually looks worse than it is . it 's healing pretty nicely . paul : good to hear . nikki : so , i appreciate you wanting to get together , but if it 's about everything with dina the other night , i 'd really rather not . actually , i wish all the charges were just dropped . paul : well , that 's a very generous take on things , nikki , but this has to do with zack stinnett 's death . ballistics came back on the weapon . he was shot with your gun . scott : tessa ! hey ! i thought that was you outside . how you doing ? tessa : i was , um ... just about to ask paul if he had an update on my sister . i want her home , but i 'm worried the minute they find her , they 'll arrest her for killing zack . scott : well , crystal 's the reason abby and i are alive right now . we 'll remind paul daily if we have to . tessa : you have more faith than i do . when you publish the story about the sex ring , if you could protect crystal , i mean , change her name at least ... scott : i wo n't be needing any names . the story is n't happening . tessa : why not ? scott : because pretty soon , i wo n't have a forum to publish it in . victoria newman saw to that . abby : hey ! lily : hey . um , the hashtag site 's not working . abby : uh , that 's an understatement . [ scoffs ] lily : something happen ? abby : it 's a long story . lily : well , i just assumed that the site would cover everything you went through because what i heard about that night is terrifying , and the fact that you 've come out stronger for it ? my admiration for you could n't be higher . abby : thank you . seriously , thank you for saying that . because all i 've heard is what an idiot i am for not realizing that zack was some evil criminal mastermind . lily : no , no one would ever think that . abby : oh , people think it . they even give press conferences about it . lily : well , do n't be so hard on yourself . you 're not psychic . how could you have ever seen through zack ? abby : [ scoffs ] ask my sister . victoria has the answer to everything . additional sponsorship [ cellphone rings ] jack : hilary ? hilary : hi , jack . i tried your office , but they said that you were n't reachable . jack : yeah , i 'm working out of the house today , one of the perks . what can i do for you ? hilary : well , i was hoping that dina might be interested in coming on my show . jack : you want my mother on gc buzz -- why ? hilary : well , i have n't had her on in a while , and i thought it 'd be nice to get an update on what the great dina mergeron has been up to since selling her company to hamilton - winters . jack : she 's decided to step away from the public eye for right now . hilary : come on , jack . it 'll be a breath of fresh air after all of this doom and gloom that has been in the news recently . jack : that 's my other line . i got to run . i 'll talk to you soon . mariah : so , devon and i decided that we should just be good friends , which is probably what we should have been from the beginning . sharon : well , it 's always good to take a chance . mariah : yeah , unless you get slapped down and look like a complete loser , then , no , it 's not that good to take a chance . sharon : oh , sweetheart ... mariah : no , no , no . do n't do the `` sweetheart `` voice . i 'm fine . really . i 'm great . things turned out the way that they probably always should have , you know ? i -- i do n't have a boyfriend , or a girlfriend , for that matter , but , um , i refuse to be a walking pity party . sharon : of course . you know , you 've been through a rough time . self - care is important . mariah : this is me we 're talking about ! i am the queen of self - care . i mean , i got up this morning and i showered . and now since i have all of this free time , i was thinking about getting into a hobby . maybe scrapbooking . sharon : you 're deflecting . mariah : all signs point to maybe . sharon : i do n't want to push , okay ? i 'm just happy to have company . mariah : so , what is on the menu for your schmancy dinner with scott ? sharon : well , roasted salmon , baby potatoes , asparagus , and a tarragon sauce . mariah : yum . evidently , it pays to be trapped in a storage locker . sharon : look how good we both are at changing the subject . i 'm so proud of us . mariah : and you just changed it right back . sharon : i did . mariah : [ chuckles ] sharon : i know it hurts right now , mariah , but try not to shut down , try to stay open . surprises happen . you know , the right person will come along when the last thing you 're even thinking about is romance . that 's what happened for me and scott , and look at us now . abby : and just like that , hashtag gets the ax . lily : well , i mean , victoria is pragmatic , and it sounds like it was a business decision , so i know it 's not easy to swallow , but sometimes it 's necessary . abby : are you trying to convince me or yourself ? lily : [ chuckles ] look , i 'll admit , i do n't get it , but she 's coo now , you know ? it 's our job to back her up . abby : yeah , but that does n't mean we have to automatically become good little corporate soldiers . lily : [ chuckles ] well , i do like having a paycheck . abby : even if it 's not the same paycheck or title you used to have ? yeah , i heard . lily : look , victoria said that it was out of her hands . abby : and how does that work , exactly , for the coo ? i mean , she either has the power , or she doesn't . you ca n't have it both ways . just like she thinks it 's my fault that i did n't know what zack was up to , but when she was at brash & sassy , she had no idea what billy or cane or juliet ... i 'm sorry . i -- i should n't have said that . i 'm really sorry . lily : no , it 's fine . do n't worry about it . you 're not wrong , okay ? i will admit that victoria does seem different now that she 's back at newman . i feel like there 's more shades of victor coming to the surface . abby : well , to you , she seems different . to me , she 's exactly the same . victoria : i still do n't understand how it was mom 's gun that crystal used to shoot zack . victor : well , i have n't talked to your mother about this . i mean , i do n't know if she took her gun when she moved out of the ranch . victoria : regardless , it had to have been stolen , right ? victor : your mother 's gon na make it very difficult to distance newman from this scandal . victoria : abby dropped this scandal on our doorstep . victor : sweetheart , all she was trying to do is prove to me that she could attract a cutting - edge business . victoria : she attracted illegal and illicit instead . victor : oh , she did n't do that intentionally . come on , now . be a little bit more forgiving . okay ? i mean , she went through hell and back with that zack guy . victoria : so , the newman guns are kept in a safe . is there any way that abby could have access to the combination ? victor : what do you mean ? you mean she took it ? victoria : one of our firearms was found in the motel room . i 'm just following the bread crumbs here . victor : wait a minute . abby was locked up in a storage facility . before then , she was at a party . she would n't take a gun to a celebration . and if she had had a gun , that zack guy would not have been able to lock her up in the storage facility . victoria : regardless , abby may have had access to mom 's gun . victor : what are you suggesting , that she killed zack ? victoria : how else to explain this weapon ? abby was victimized by a sociopath . she was scared for her life . he had his own gun . no one would blame her if she shot him . the press would be sympathetic . victor : wait a minute . victoria : just hear me out . with all of that sympathy on her side , the fact that she brought zack into newman would lose some of its heat , do n't you think ? victor : so you think this is the stand the company should take ? victoria : of course . victor : i do n't think abby will see it that way . so what 's our next step ? tessa : i 'm -- i 'm sorry about hashtag . scott : and i 'm sorry we ca n't publish that story . it was meant to help crystal and other women like her , and i know you both were counting on that . tessa : even though i was n't there , all i can think about is crystal in that motel room , feeling like she had no other option except for pulling a trigger and killing a guy . scott : a bad guy . do n't forget that . i won't . nikki : obviously i would have no idea how a gun that is supposedly registered to me ended up in a seedy motel somewhere . paul : mm , so that 's it ? you 're not even gon na try ? nikki : okay . you got me . i was in on it . i mean , in spite of the fact that i had just been stabbed , i got in my car and i drove out to some motel god knows where and i shot that zack . and then i begged scott and abby to say that it was one of the victims . that 's exactly what happened . so , slap the cuffs on me . let 's get this over with . paul : so , the night of the party , at the top of the tower , did you bring your gun with you ? nikki : you 're asking me if i was armed at a newman event ? no , i was n't , but looking back on it , i probably should have been . paul : the only reason i ask is someone could have taken the gun from your purse . or you could have handed it off . nikki : none of that happened . i did n't have it , okay ? paul : okay , so , you do n't keep track of your firearms . nikki : gee , you know , it never occurred to me to do that . no ! when i left the ranch , i did n't have the gun with me . i do n't know where it is . i do n't know when the last time was i had it . paul : maybe i should ask victor , but i already did , and he could n't say what happened to the firearm , either . nikki : what were you expecting , a different reply ? paul : at this point , i do n't know what to expect , but there is one thing i know for certain . someone is lying . mariah : we are so different . sharon : where did that come from ? mariah : well , despite our shared genetic makeup , you want to talk about emotions and feelings and relationships , whereas i would rather chomp on glass . sharon : well , talking is less painful . mariah : is it ? sharon : i do n't mean to push . mariah : no , you 're great . you 're doing exactly what a good mom should . you 're being supportive and invested . it 's just -- you 're never gon na really understand how this feels . i mean , take you and scott for instance . all you did was pour him a cup of coffee , and cartoon hearts shot out of his eyes . boom . sharon : that is not what happened at all . mariah : i put myself out there this last time , i shared my feelings , and ... i got shot down . hard . sharon : and you think i ca n't relate ? i 've had my share of romantic misery , and you 've been there for plenty of it . mariah : i know , i know . i 'm sorry . it 's just everything seems so solid with you and scott . i mean , that has to make you feel good , right ? sharon : except when he goes and gets himself kidnapped , sure . i worried a lot about him when he was gone . but i worry about him now . it seems like he 's been a little bit different since he got back . mariah : yeah , but that 's not you . it 's the trauma . abby : i know he 's not in yet , but please make sure he gets that . thank you . victoria : abby , i 'm so glad i ran into you . do you have a moment ? abby : uh , only a second . i have a conference call . victor : sweetheart , will you join us ? there 's something we need to discuss together , okay ? it will just be a minute . abby : okay . victoria : mitigating this sex ring scandal is crucial . neil 's doing his best to handle all of the media , but we need to put as much distance as we can between ourselves and this bad publicity , and fast . victor : what you have you to know is that i was questioned by the authorities , including paul williams . they 're trying very hard to construct a case against us . abby : well , i 'm sorry to hear that . i know how much the reputation of this company and our family means to you . it means a lot to me , as well . victoria : good , then i assume that means you wo n't mind giving a public statement . people need to know that newman was never complicit with zack and his criminal activities . abby : okay , yeah , i will start working on one right now . victoria : no . no need . i 've written one up . abby : oh . victoria : and since obviously time is not on our side , we 'll be scheduling a press conference for later today , during which we 'll need you to read exactly what we 've written up here . nikki : all right , i 'm not gon na take it personally that you just accused me of knowing about this gun , but if you bring it up again , we are gon na have a problem . paul : nik , i am only asking the questions that have to be asked . like , why do you own a gun in the first place ? nikki : [ sighs ] paul , you know how victor is . he wanted me to know how to operate a gun . he 's not home a lot . we live out in the middle of nowhere . he wants me to be safe . paul : right , i understand he wants you to be safe , but you 're not alone . you have a full security team , you have a household staff . nikki : paul , i want to help you , but i do n't know what to say . i am just as surprised as you are that that gun was involved in that murder -- albeit , the victim himself is n't really a loss to society ... paul : nikki , i understand your reasoning for saying that , but given who the murder weapon tracks back to , best maybe not to vocalize that in a public place . nikki : why , because it can and will be used against me ? paul : given your history , i do n't think it 's a really good idea to endorse vigilantism , especially with your own weapon . nikki : oh , my god , so now we 're talking about my father , another sicko who took advantage of young girls ! paul : okay , you 're right , all that is true . however ... nikki : i would like to help you , but i do n't know how i can . paul : [ sighs ] okay . nikki : paul , believe me when i say that i have no idea who stole that gun . paul : nikki , this is n't going away . your gun was never reported stolen . so the authorities have no choice but to focus on newman enterprises , the ranch , and victor -- that 's it . nikki : well , to think that victor had anything to do with it is ridiculous . i mean , it 's absolutely crazy . paul : [ scoffs ] the feds wo n't necessarily see it that way . nikki : tessa . tessa : nikki . uh , hi ! i did n't want to interrupt you and chief williams . nikki : mm - hmm . he and i are done . you and i are just getting started . victoria : dad and i have some meetings scheduled , so while we take care of business , i need you to consider this the only thing on your to - do list . i need you to be honest and straightforward with plenty of humility . i 'll see you later at the press conference , okay ? abby : no , we need to talk about this . victoria : no , i 'm sorry , abby , there 's just no time . so just deliver this verbatim , and then things should start to go away . look , you 're a team player , i know that . victor : sweetheart , you 'll do fine , okay ? now , if you do n't mind , victoria and i have some business to discuss . abby : wow . scott : hey . what 's going on ? you okay ? abby : not really , no . scott : care to elaborate ? abby : here . read . enjoy . scott : no ... abby : yep . scott : are they serious with this ? abby : yeah , this is supposed to be my mea culpa to the world . i 'm supposed to play up the fact that i was a victim and should be pitied , and at the same time , make myself look completely pathetic while i announce to the whole world that everything that happened was because of my `` inexperience and naivete . `` scott : and this part -- that you did n't share any doubts about zack with your father -- i mean , your his flak jacket , making him bulletproof . abby : yeah ! oh , oh ! and look at the bottom . this is my favorite part . `` victoria newman will assume all responsibility for future company acquisitions , and i can assure you that newman business will once again be conducted to the highest standards . `` scott : what they 're asking -- abby : oh , no , no , no . they did n't ask . they ordered . i mean , how am i supposed to do that ? how am i supposed to read it with a straight face ? i can't . i won't . scott : no . no , you should . abby : really ? you 're gon na have her side now , after what she did to hashtag ? scott : no . no , no , no . you should read this , though , definitely . all it needs is a little editing . paul : sorry to drop by unannounced , but , uh , i figured you 'd want to hear this in person . jack : is it about my mother ? paul : the battery charge . the da 's office has been in contact with a judge to try and set a trial date . i 'm sorry , jack , they 're gon na fast - track this thing . jack : there 's nothing we can do about this ? i can call nikki . paul : no , she wants to let it go , but it 's not up to her . the altercation was in public , there were witnesses ... dina is very high profile , and the message has to be sent that no one is above the law . jack : the message ? that 's what this is about ? pr for the city ? something for christine to campaign on when she runs for office again ? paul : look , jack , i came by as a courtesy , so maybe you could plan , maybe you could strategize and cut a deal . although i do n't think prison time is unavoidable in this situation . jack : i -- the whole thing ... i 'm sorry , i was out of line for what i said about christine . i 'm sorry . paul : it 's all right . i understand how stressful this is . and not just for you , but for the entire family . jack : if only it were just the battery charges . paul : what -- what are you talking about ? jack : i think we 're going to have add arson to my mother 's list of crimes . paul : what are you saying ? jack : the underground . in all likelihood , my mother started that fire , and she 's not doing time for that , she 's not doing time for what she did to nikki ... paul : oh , wait a minute , jack , if you think i can make this go away , i can't . jack : no . i can . paul : what is this ? have you already seen a lawyer ? jack : not exactly . that is my mother 's medical file . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . tessa : you think i stole your gun ? nikki : drop the act , tessa . and before you come up with some ridiculous lie , i want you to remember all the kindness and generosity i gave you . tessa : i am grateful for everything you did for me . nikki : that gun was under lock and key for a reason . you gave it to your sister crystal ! tessa : okay . okay , yeah , i did it . i took the gun . but i did n't know it was yours . paul : all this is accurate ? jack : alzheimer 's . and not the early stages . paul : how long have you known ? jack : ash and i just found out . mother has apparently known for some time now . paul : well , this changes things . jack : paul , i am no expert on alzheimer 's -- yet -- but i know this . there is no way my mother knew what she was doing when she stabbed nikki , or when she did what she did at the underground . it was n't until after a conversation with nick that i realized what had happened . when i confronted my mother , she had no recollection whatsoever . when i jogged her memory , when she finally admitted that she 'd been there , that she might be responsible , i wish you could have seen the devastation on her face . paul , you can call her doctor , you can visit with him . we had no idea what we were dealing with until the night of ashley 's party at top of the tower . we know now . we can be more vigilant now . nothing like this could happen again . you have my personal guarantee . no one could prosecute her for this -- not christine , not a jury ... paul : i understand . i am -- i am sorry . i can only imagine . you hear friends talk about situations like this , and i guess every situation is different but in some ways the same . jack : yeah . paul : and as far as the charges go , um ... i ca n't see that the da 's office will see an upside to prosecuting someone in dina 's condition . i will send in my recommendation as soon as possible that all criminal charges be dropped . jack : thank you , paul . i owe you big . paul : it 's not a favor , jack . it 's the right thing . i mean , dina and your entire family are going through a lot . it 's not gon na get any easier . jack : [ sighs ] victoria : the main thing that i want to get out of this press conference is for people to realize that abby is relatively new to serious business , but we should play up the sympathy angle regarding her mistakes , i think . lily : um ... victoria : lily , is there something that you want to say ? lily : yeah , i just wanted to know what abby 's reaction was when you and victor asked her to speak to the press . victoria : abby realizes that we need to put the company first . lily : well , you know that she would never intentionally hurt the newman image , right ? victoria : no . no one thinks that she did this intentionally , not for one minute , but the damage has been done , and that 's what we have to fix . excuse me . how did you get in here ? how did you get past security ? hilary : i 'm press . lily : [ scoffs ] barely . hilary : and i heard that there was a press conference , and i 'd like to stream it live on my website . victoria : that conference is n't public knowledge yet . hilary : well , it pays to have excellent sources . now , i have n't been able to confirm the topic yet , but i can only assume -- victoria : leave now . hilary : that 's not the way it works . victoria : you do n't get to dictate the rules because maybe you did n't notice on your way in here -- the newman name is on the building . so that means you have one of two choices . you can escort yourself out , or i can have security throw you out , but there 's no way in hell you 're staying for this press conference , not after you ambushed me at the club the other day . hilary : i was giving you a platform , an opportunity to refute the allegations that newman was involved in zack 's little side project . if anything , you should be thanking me for exposing jordan . you would still be employing a con artist if i had n't lifted the veil on his grifter ways . lily : jordan ? what are you talking about ? hilary : [ scoffs ] you do n't watch my show , do you ? lily : no , i 'm sorry , i have a life . hilary : okay , well , i wo n't spoil it for you , but let 's just say this -- your biggest fan , he 's got some major issues . go on , check out the archives . juicy stuff . abby : this part just sounds so ... i do n't know . scott : okay . well , how about this ? abby : yeah . i like it . hey , you know , i 'm -- i 'm sorry about hashtag . i think it was a huge mistake for victoria to shut it down . that sex - trafficking story , it was n't just important for the victims and for law enforcement , but for everyone out there . they need to know that things like that , they actually happen . scott : well , who said it 's shut down ? abby : uh , the coo of newman enterprises ? scott : abby , i 've been held hostage , interviewed dictators , dodged bullets , and manage to deal with you on a regular basis . i think i can find my way around a few it guys . but right now , let 's focus on your statement . so , how about ... this ? abby : mm . i do n't know . i was thinking more like ... that . scott : better , except for the fact that you ca n't spell . abby : oh , my gosh , i can totally spell ! you just ca n't read cursive ! scott : not when it 's illegible . abby : if you 're just gon na judge me , then why are you even helping me ? scott : because . because , um , i think this could benefit both of us . [ cellphone chimes ] abby : um , sharon . scott : oh . she 's , uh -- she 's making dinner for me . she probably wants to know when i 'll be over . abby : you should reply . scott : i 'll get back to her when we 're done here . abby : have n't you put that woman through enough ? you at least owe her some common courtesy . scott : i know exactly how much i owe her . besides , i think we 're making some really good progress here . abby : you know what , um , i think i got it . thank you for your help , but you really should get to dinner . scott : no way . i 'm not letting you go to that press conference by yourself . no backup ? abby : [ chuckles ] you think i ca n't handle it . scott : i threw some big words in there . abby : only so you could sound smart . scott : [ scoffs ] abby : you know , it 's funny how your ego and insecurity are the exact same size . hmm . let 's see here ... jack : hello , victor . victor : jack , i would stay and chat , but i have a press conference to attend . jack : uh - huh . i assume this has something to do with your company backing an organized sex - trafficking operation ? victor : [ chuckles ] this has to do with my company having been blindsided . jack : boy , i 'm glad i 'm not dealing with that . jack : you tell your mother to stay away from nikki . jack : oh , that wo n't be an issue . nikki and i are no longer seeing each other . tessa : what i did was for crystal 's sake . zack had natalia murdered like she was nothing . all i could think was my sister was next . nikki : when i brought you into my house , i did n't realize you were a safe- cracker . tessa : it 's not like that . i had the combination . nikki : how ? tessa : from you . nikki : i think i would have remembered that . tessa : it was during the benefit , when things were crazy . it was on a stack of papers you handed me , and i tried not to look or care , but ... i guess it stuck in my head . my curiosity got the better of me . i opened the safe and saw two guns . look , i did n't know who they belonged to . i just took the smaller one because i thought it 'd be easier to hide . nikki : well , now paul is grilling me for owning a gun that was used in a homicide . the police are very curious to know how it got into crystal 's hands . tessa : are you gon na tell them it was me ? nikki : you used to live in my home and crystal is your sister , so my guess would be that they already know ! you know , you could get into a lot more trouble than this . you could be an accessory , even worse ! tessa : i -- i did n't mean to . i ... what did i do ? nikki : the next time your sister gets a sex trafficker off the streets , you tell her not to drop the damn gun . lily : what the hell ? jordan : i 'm guessing you saw hilary 's takedown . lily : yeah , i heard about it , and it was disgusting , conning lonely women like that ... jordan : a long time ago . hilary 's bitter . she has to tear apart anyone who gets on her bad side . this week , it 's me . lily : you know what kills me is your hypocrisy . you never pass a chance to take a shot at cane , acting like you were so good and righteous . jordan : i told you i 'd done things that i was n't too proud of . lily : you never went into detail , you kept things vague . but you always made sure to be by my side , acting like you were so much more decent than my husband . jordan : look , i do n't want to fight with you , lily . bottom line , i screwed up . in the past . but cane cheated on you and broke your heart . all i ever wanted to do was make you happy . my history does not make that a lie . hilary : well , this looks like fun , hmm ? lily : [ sighs ] this is a private conversation . jordan : it 's a finished conversation . look , you -- you get off on inflicting pain . you -- from the way you defend cane , maybe you like suffering , and me , i ... i 'm out of here . i have to lay low for a while . hilary : well , good , because i 've been waiting to see the back of you for a long time . jordan : i left something for you to remember me by . hilary : [ scoffs ] what does that mean ? jordan : stay tuned . mariah : all right . sharon : perfect . mariah : i think my work is done here , so i 'm gon na make myself scarce . but if there are any leftovers ... sharon : oh , they 're all yours . mariah : good . did scott text you back ? sharon : no , i think he must have gotten caught in traffic or work or something . mariah : well , once he walks into this oasis of fine dining and romance , i 'm sure all of that will melt away . i hope he does n't take you for granted . sharon : no , that would never happen . mariah : good , because then he 'll have to answer to me . sharon : [ chuckles ] victoria : oh , abby , hi . good . i was hoping that we could talk through what 's about to happen . abby : okay . victoria : just , uh , you know , be yourself . keep things short and simple , and if you feel like getting emotional , go ahead . you 've been through a lot . abby : i 've got this . victoria : good . okay . so , as soon as dad gets back from his meeting , we 're gon na start . abby : that 's fine . i can wait . scott : how you feeling ? abby : do you want me to word - vomit my anxiety on you , or just say `` fine ? `` scott : let me think on that . abby : he 's here . victoria : thank you for coming , ladies and gentlemen . newman enterprises is aware of the current controversy swirling around the recent incidents with the designdate app . our company is devoted to transparency , so in that spirit , we feel that a statement is in order . please give your attention to abby newman . abby : [ sighs ] thank you all for coming . i 've prepared a statement ... mariah : hey , why are n't you there ? hilary : shh ! shh ! i want to hear this . abby : any and all questions can be directed to power communications at a later time . [ cellphone chimes ] abby : as you all know , i recently suffered a traumatic experience ... mariah : hey , what 's going on ? hilary : i do n't know . it 's an alert from our website . i did n't authorize any ... [ cellphones chime ] mariah : oh . wow . you can scroll . there are ... a lot of pictures showing a lot of you . hilary : jordan ! abby : but now the worst is over , and i 've taken a few days to reflect on everything that led to those disturbing events , and i would like to say how personally sorry i am for everything that happened . but there is a matter that i would like to clear up , since there seems to be some confusion surrounding the facts . all of us here at newman enterprises were duped by a master manipulator , a murdering criminal . this man brought me his idea for designdate , and i developed it through my tech incubator project . newman enterprises then absorbed the incubator and all companies involved . as things progressed , i received support and expertise from my father , victor newman . side by side we did our due diligence , never knowing that we were being taken advantage of by zack stinnett . that man alone is responsible for everything that happened . my associate scott grainger and i have been portrayed as victims , but that is not how we see it . the way we see it , however , is that we stood up to a violent criminal , never thinking about the cost . we exposed him and his activities when others could not . some people want to blame me for the impact this has had on newman enterprises -- my father for one , my sister for another , who only recently became coo at newman enterprises after her relative inexperience cost her dearly at her failing company . the details behind designdate 's criminal activities and how they are tied to an organized sex- trafficking ring are too extensive to get into here , but you can read all about it firsthand on hashtag , written by mr . grainger . take a look . one thing will be abundantly clear . there is no blame on this side of the podium for anything that went down . [ next_on ] nick : what the hell 's the holdup , paul ? i mean , how are we gon na get this person who torched my club ? paul : we don't . devon : is there anything that i can do for you ? hilary : can you meet me ? i have a proposal for you . abby : i 'll save you the trouble of firing me . i quit .Summarize.[/INST]scott promised tessa that he and abby would vouch for crystal if she was ever faced charges for killing zack . paul asked nikki how her gun came to be used to kill zack . nikki swore she had no idea . paul thought that either she or victor was lying . after a confrontation with nikki , tessa confessed to stealing the gun from the ranch and giving it to crystal for protection . victor told victoria that zack was killed with nikki 's gun . victoria mulled over taking the heat off the family by having abby confess to killing zack in self defense . lily and abby discussed the decisions victoria was making at newman . with victor 's approval , victoria presented abby with a statement to read at a press conference . the statement said that the scandal happened as a result of abby 's naïveté . abby vented about the statement to scott , and he helped her edit victoria 's words . paul told jack that dina would likely have to serve time for stabbing nikki . jack revealed that dina had alzheimer 's and that she set fire to nick 's club . paul promised to recommend that the charges be dropped , due to dina 's condition . sharon urged mariah not to give up on finding love . sharon cooked a meal for scott and told mariah that he 'd been distant . scott was busy helping abby and he ignored sharon 's text about dinner . hilary tried to attend the newman press conference , but victoria kicked her out . lily overheard hilary mention that jordan was a con artist . lily read about jordan 's past on hilary 's site and confronted him . jordan had words with hilary and lily . jack told victor that he broke up with nikki . jordan posted hilary 's nude photos on her show 's website for everyone to see . abby gave her press conference , and she stood up for herself instead of falling on her sword as victor and victoria had instructed her to . abby revealed that victor and victoria blamed her , noted that victoria became coo after her own company failed and she announced that scott had published the hashtag article on the sex ring , despite being ordered not to .</s> | 18,648 |

[ kendall chuckles ] kendall : that 's true . well , i got to say , old sextus really nailed it . zach : probably did , yeah . kendall : oh . ok , here 's the problem , zach . the problem is that all of this absence is making me love you so much more and it 's -- it 's becoming impossible to put up this whole `` i hate you `` front . zach : as long as it 's just a front . kendall : of course , it is . just tell me again that this is all going to be over soon . zach : i 'll do whatever i can to be home as soon as i can with you and spike . does he ask for me , ask for his stepdad at all ? kendall : yes . of course , he does . he -- he misses you . i mean , who else is going to teach him the rules of hockey ? zach : damn right . well , just tell him i 'll be home with stanley cup tickets . kendall : ok . it 's a good thing i have no idea when that is . the only thing that 's getting me through this is knowing that you 'll be home soon . and the only way i can keep up all this lying and freaking out in public and putting up these fronts are knowing that you 're coming home to me . zach : well , keep telling yourself that . then you 'll be in my arms for the rest of your life . kendall : hmm , assuming that tad does n't screw everything up . [ scene_break ] tad : j.r. , do you really think i enjoy the fact that i caught them dumping the body that night ? jamie : no one 's forcing you to go public with this , dad . tad : that 's where you 're wrong . j.r. : you hate the fact that my mother hooked up with slater . now , no one 's jumping up and down for joy over that hookup , but do n't make up lies to get her thrown into prison ! tad : i 'm not . i would n't . jamie : even if you think you saw dixie and slater with a body , how can you use it against her like this , ruin her life , ruin j.r. 's life ? tad : i would never do anything to hurt you or your brother . j.r. : yeah , we 're not going to let you . you 're not going to get the chance . tad : unfortunately , it 's a little too late for that . that 's why i called you both over here , because i wanted to explain -- j.r. : no , i do n't want to hear your lies ! it 's just a bunch of garbage . tad : you 've got to listen , j.r . i 'm sorry , it 's the way it happened . that night , i went to the airport to look for madden . when i could n't find him , i went back to the parking lot and that 's when i saw them dumping something that looked like a body into the trunk of dixie 's car . j.r. : `` something that looked like a body . `` you 're hanging my mother on something that looked like a body . jamie : shut up and let him finish . tad : all right , just -- i tried to trail them through traffic . i lost them , ok ? so i drove around for a while until i found dixie 's car at the park , and then i waited and waited and waited . when they finally came out , i tailed them back to the casino . after they went inside , i checked the trunk . it was empty . jamie : maybe you saw wrong . j.r. : look , i do n't care what you saw . you 're not going to tell another living soul . tad : i do n't have to . derek 's got it all on tape . jamie : you went to the cops ? tad : i did n't go -- i did n't go to anybody . he came to me . he bugged my house . i was having a fight with slater . he heard the whole thing . j.r. : this is just great . tad : j.r. , i hate this as much as you do . and as angry as i am at your mother , you ca n't think i would want to send her to prison for the rest of her life . j.r. : i think that 's exactly what you want to do . [ scene_break ] dixie : i know tad despises me , but i never thought he 'd do anything so extreme . di : well , you know what ? you 're not going to have to worry about tad when you 're in another country . now , take a look around . make sure you 're not forgetting anything critical . dixie : di , i ca n't run . i did n't do anything wrong . i did n't kill greg madden . di : maybe not . but right now , tad seems to have tunnel vision -- crush dixie . now , if you -- if you stay in pine valley , he might get his wish . dixie : i just -- oh . i guess he 's never going to forgive me for keeping him from his daughter . del : actually , dix , i think it was the little fling with slater at pushed him past the edge . di : ok , del , you 're not helping . dixie : i just did n't think he 'd go this far , to -- to lie just to get revenge ? di : dixie , lies or not , tad is going to tell a jury that he saw you with greg madden 's body . now , let 's save the talking and analyzing and trying to figure out why tad all of a sudden turned ugly for another time . right now , you have to do the only thing you can to save yourself -- you have to run .

[ di sighs ] dixie : he has been a rock for me ever since i came to town . he 's given me a place to stay , a shoulder to lean on . he is a wonderful , kind , good , caring man and probably the only person here who understands me . di : oh , my god . this love affair with zach -- it 's not just an alibi . [ scene_break ] kendall : ok , ryan , all right . we 're making out on the roof -- bad call . we get that . next time , we 'll be a little more discreet . ryan : next time -- perfect . kendall : it was a quick hello , ryan . you 're the one who 's turning it into the sin of the century . ryan : you know what ? you 're right . my bad . you do n't care about getting caught , then i 'm just going to walk right back out the door and let you get back to your little `` quick hello , `` that 's fine . you might want to know , though , that your alibi is already hanging by a thread . tad claims to have seen you and dixie with a body the night madden disappeared , and he 's going to testify . zach : tad 's full of it . ryan : meaning that he did n't see you or meaning that he saw you and misunderstood or -- zach : meaning that he did n't see me . he 's making the whole thing up . we 'll do this again soon , ok ? kendall : ok . zach : just kidding . ryan : uh - huh . kendall : ryan , listen , listen . i -- i know that you were just looking out for me and you were trying to protect me . sorry . but i really do need your help . we have got to shut tad up . [ scene_break ] tad : j.r. , i do n't know what to say . i keep thinking if i 'd stopped off at a bar or a restaurant , something , i would n't be in a position to destroy your mother 's life . j.r. : look , if you 're making this whole thing up to get even with her for sleeping with slater -- jamie : oh , come on . this is my dad we 're talking about , not yours . tad : if i wanted to get even with somebody , there are a lot easier ways to do it without hurting either one of you . jamie : there 's no way derek will give up the tape ? and then that way , you could lie on the stand . tad : no , he 's not about to give up his hard - won evidence . in any case , if i refuse to cooperate , any da worth his salt is going to use my words to convict your mother . i should 've known derek was going to bug my house . i am supposed to be a pi , for god 's sake . jamie : you have n't been yourself in weeks . you 've been acting really weird . this is why , is n't it ? tad : what can i say ? it was bad enough that dixie was sleeping with that jackass . when i found out that she 'd destroyed my last chance of ever hooking up with kate , it makes me sick . j.r. : if all this is true , how come you did n't try to confront them back then , back when madden w still alive ? how come you did n't try to convince my mother to set him free ? tad : because i did n't care ! as much as i did n't like what she was into , i thought eventually she would be able to help me find kate . i wanted my daughter back . i thought she was going to be able to give me some kind of hope , to give me some kind of lead . when i realized that hope was dead , it was already too late . jamie : why did n't you tell us ? tad : i wanted to , on more than one occasion . then all i had to do was look at your face , to think about what you 'd already been through with your mother . now you 're tight with her again , you love her . whatever she did , i am not going to take your mother away from you all over again . i did n't want to be the one to tell you that she had killed your last lead to your sister . j.r. : but now here you are , about to tell the whole world . tad : i do n't exactly have a choice . derek is threatening me with all kinds of charges . j.r. : well , there 's still one way out . i can make you disappear . [ scene_break ] babe : josh , is everything ok ? josh : you think any part of him is -- is in there maybe a piece of his leg or his brain , or maybe his heart . do you think he had a heart ? babe : josh , do n't do this . josh : you know , i buried his ashes right here -- reburied him . have you ever seen human ashes ? they 're not soft and feathery . they 're coarse . but i might be able to tell if i -- babe : please , you 're scaring me . josh : i know who killed him , babe -- the n who raised me . what do i do ?

[ dixie sighs ] dixie : did you hear ? tad said that he saw us -- zach : i know . what 's going on here -- you do n't like your room ? want a bigger room ? you going somewhere ? what 's going on ? dixie : well , my brother and sister seemed to have some ideas about my travel plans . zach : mm - hmm . running 's not the answer . [ dixie sighs ] dixie : i 'm open to suggestion . zach : well , i think the first thing we need to do is keep your ex - husband from talking . dixie : well , considering he hates me , i think it 's going to be a little difficult to get him to retract that story . zach : i guess what i 'm saying is if you ca n't shut him up , i can . i do n't know why people do n't know about this . [ scene_break ] babe : if you 're thinking about going off on j.r. again , save it . he did n't kill dr. madden . josh : i know . it was n't j.r . babe : you really mean that ? josh : i wish i did n't . greg madden and i did n't share blood , but he still raised me . he may have been demented , but did he deserve to be tortured and killed that way ? babe : what happened to him was hideous . josh : yeah , well , a few days ago , i would 've said he deserved a lot worse . but if it was n't for greg madden , i would n't be here right now . and if i had a way to get some justice , to make someone pay for whoever did that , should n't i ? babe : you 're having doubts ? josh : he did steal her kid , refused to tell her where her little girl was . maybe i should take it easy on her because of that , feel bad for her , but i do n't . babe : are you -- are you saying that dixie -- josh : dixie is a liar . they 're all liars . kendall , slater , the fights , the jealousy -- they made that up entirely , 100 % . they concocted that whole alibi so that -- so that slater and that demented mother - in - law of yours can get away with torture and murder . [ scene_break ] dixie : so , how are you going to keep tad from talking ? zach : whatever it takes . dixie : what does that mean ? zach : it means i 'm not going to let him get away with this . dixie : what are you exactly considering doing ? zach : i did n't start this , dixie . he drew first blood , and every action has a consequence . dixie : what are you talking about ? you 're not going to hurt him . zach : what is it with you ? what do you care ? the man despises you . why do you care what happens to him ? dixie : i do n't know . i just do . [ scene_break ] tad : granted , dixie 's done some pretty low things in the past few years , but for some unexplainable reason , it still matters to me what happens to her . j.r. : good . then you wo n't have any problem with me trying to get rid of you . jamie : ease up on the godfather routine . j.r. : look , i did n't say i was going to whack him . i mean bounce you out of the country , as in a thousand miles from dixie and her whole trial . tad : that 's exactly what i was hoping you 'd say . if you let me use the chandler corporate jet , there 'll be no trail for the cops to follow . that 's why i called you both over here tonight anyway , because i wanted to say good- bye . jamie : wait a second . how long are you planning to stay away ? tad : there 's no way of knowing . let 's see what happens after dixie 's trial , see what the atmosphere is like . i might be able to come back after that . j.r. : you willing to do this ? leave your life and your family , risk being a fugitive , all to spare mom ? tad : i 'm willing to do it for you . look , i ca n't be charged as a fugitive if i have n't been subpoenaed , which means i have to leave pine valley tonight . [ scene_break ] dixie : just try to listen to me , ok ? j.r. and jamie love their father . i could never look them in the eyes again if something happened to tad because of me . zach : uh - huh . but it 's ok for him to cut you off at the knees ? dixie : i have hurt tad -- [ zach sighs ] dixie : beyond belief . he does n't deserve any more suffering . zach : ok . i 'm sorry , i do n't understand . you 've apologized about what happened to kate . you 've tried to explain to him what happened to kate . nothing justifies what he 's doing to you right now . dixie : well , could you try to understand , just think about it a little bit ? i actually do n't care what it costs me . i ca n't hurt tad again . [ scene_break ] tad : no matter what it costs me , i 'm not going to hurt dixie again . jamie : even if it means you may never be able to come back to pine valley ? if dixie 's convicted , derek most likely is going to have a grudge . he could make it impossible for you to ever come back home . tad : if i testify , dixie will be convicted . in the long haul , it does n't matter what running means for me . i 'm not going to be responsible for him taking dixie away from you again . [ scene_break ] dixie : look , zach , i know you know what it 's like being robbed of the chance to raise your own child . now , you may not like me very much because of this , but i did that to tad . ca n't you see that ? i robbed him of his rights as a father . i gave our child to strangers instead of back to him to raise ? i hurt that man beyond words . i ca n't live with causing him any more pain . i ca n't do it . and i understand this is n't just about me . but it would mean so much to me . please , i beg you , just leave tad alone . [ scene_break ] kendall : how do we shut tad 's smarmy , lying mouth ? ryan : you 're asking me ? kendall : well , he 's your friend -- or he was , for a while . i mean , is n't there something you can think of , some button that we could push to get him to just shut up with this stupid lie ? ryan : you know what , kendall ? it 's not like tad to outright lie . kendall : no -- it 's like me . i mean , you got to admit , this is vintage kendall . if i wanted to get even with the love of my life for taking my child and supposedly sleeping with the person that i hate , i would probably come up with something a lot worse than tad did . now , i do n't approve , but i get it . i mean , i know that this affair is fake and it 's killing me . tad -- i mean , he 's probably completely out of his mind right now . ryan : well , if that 's true , then there 's nothing i can do to make him take it back . kendall : so i 'll help you . ryan : kendall , come on . we go over there , we challenge his story , he 's just going to kick us out . kendall : i think tad will listen when i tell him that zach and dixie 's affair is one big act .

[ scene_break ] babe : you have no idea how many stories i 've heard about what a saint dixie was . you 're saying that she killed your father ? she 's the one that tortured him ? i do n't -- josh : she obviously traded in her halo . babe : well , if this is true , it 's going to kill j.r . josh : well , maybe it will . but i 'll be able to avenge the brutal death of the man who raised me and get back at him for what he did to me at the confusion opening . babe : you would n't really do that just to get even with my husband ? josh : well , it 's not the only reason , babe . then there 's kendall to consider , my sister . do i keep my mouth shut out of family loyalty , even though i have no connection with that family whatsoever ? or do i go public and make sure that her husband does n't get away with murdering the man that gave me life ? it 's a lot to think about . maybe that 's my answer . maybe i 'm thinking about this way too much i mean , the boom line is a man died here . i should go to the cops with what i heard . babe : no , please . please do n't .

[ scene_break ] ryan : kendall , it 's not a good idea to tell tad about zach and dixie 's affair . it 's just going to support that they were seen that night with madden 's body . kendall : no . tad is only sticking to that story because he 's jealous . if we let him in on the secret -- that zach and dixie , they 're not really having an affair -- then no more jealousy . then tad can go to the cops , he can tell them this one big , stupid story that he made up , and then maybe he can become dixie 's hero again . ryan : too big a risk . kendall : i thought that you were on our side . ryan : come on , kendall , i am on your side . kendall : ok , well , my side is zach 's side . you know what ? forget it . i 'll go see tad myself . ryan : no , no , no -- kendall : please . ryan : no , no , kendall , you do n't want to do that . - it 's good . - terrific . [ scene_break ] aidan : you 'd really do that for dixie ? go to prison in her place ? di : well , the police are insisting that someone has to pay for this crime . it might as well be me . i mean , i 've been to prison , i know what to expect , and nobody 's going to miss me out here -- not in the way that they are going to miss dixie . aidan : di , i know you feel guilty for stealing dixie 's life , but doing hard prison time ? i mean , it 's crazy and it 's just damn right out of your mind . di : no , i know what i 'm doing . aidan : well , i would feel pretty self - conscious making love to you in the visitors ' room . i would . di : i 'm serious , aidan . aidan : di ? i 'll help you , ok ?

[ scene_break ] zach : ok . believe it or not , this is not about hurting tad . it 's about not hurting us . hang on a sec . i was there when derek walked in , told tad that his whole house was bugged , and tad went nuts running around , throwing stuff everywhere . so i do n't think he had any intention of telling this story to the police . but whatever may or may not be the truth of these philosophical speculations , his story still flies in the face of our alibi , and something has to be done . dixie : then let me be the one to figure out how to keep tad from -- from talking . i mean , you just do n't do anything , ok ? but you 've done something already , have n't you ? oh , god . look , just do me a favor . can you keep -- zach : you do me a favor . let me take care of it . zach : it 's going to be just fine .

[ next_on ] josh : so is this the moment of truth now , babe ? him or me ? are we done because of j.r. ? j.r. : come on , hand it over . zach : boys , i ca n't do that . it 's a major part of the prosecution 's case . ryan : zach killed madden , because i found proof . | josh goes to the roof and notices kendall and ach kissing and making it clear that they are scamming his affair with dixie . he , then concludes that dixie and zach must have murdered greg and kendall , his `` sister `` is helping her husband get away with murdering his `` father `` . babe finds out what he 's discovered and urges him not to go to the cops with the information against dixie . she tells him even if he wo n't do it for dixie or for jr , he can do that for her if he cares about her . di and del warn dixie that she better leave town before she gets nailed for murder jamie and jr tell tad that they know he 's been subpoenaed to testify against dixie . they assume he will cooperate with derek and put their mother away . and they wo n't let him get away with doing that . he then concludes to them that he wo n't hurt dixie . so he will have to leave town before derek can serve him with the subpoena . | <s>[INST] ryan : babe , where 's kendall ? babe : as if i care . ryan : this is serious . i need to find her . babe : and i wish i could tell you where to look . the second i got off the elevator , she bolted . ryan : and you have no idea where ? babe : you know , i 'm sure she 's around here somewhere making somebody 's life miserable .

[ kendall chuckles ] kendall : that 's true . well , i got to say , old sextus really nailed it . zach : probably did , yeah . kendall : oh . ok , here 's the problem , zach . the problem is that all of this absence is making me love you so much more and it 's -- it 's becoming impossible to put up this whole `` i hate you `` front . zach : as long as it 's just a front . kendall : of course , it is . just tell me again that this is all going to be over soon . zach : i 'll do whatever i can to be home as soon as i can with you and spike . does he ask for me , ask for his stepdad at all ? kendall : yes . of course , he does . he -- he misses you . i mean , who else is going to teach him the rules of hockey ? zach : damn right . well , just tell him i 'll be home with stanley cup tickets . kendall : ok . it 's a good thing i have no idea when that is . the only thing that 's getting me through this is knowing that you 'll be home soon . and the only way i can keep up all this lying and freaking out in public and putting up these fronts are knowing that you 're coming home to me . zach : well , keep telling yourself that . then you 'll be in my arms for the rest of your life . kendall : hmm , assuming that tad does n't screw everything up . [ scene_break ] tad : j.r. , do you really think i enjoy the fact that i caught them dumping the body that night ? jamie : no one 's forcing you to go public with this , dad . tad : that 's where you 're wrong . j.r. : you hate the fact that my mother hooked up with slater . now , no one 's jumping up and down for joy over that hookup , but do n't make up lies to get her thrown into prison ! tad : i 'm not . i would n't . jamie : even if you think you saw dixie and slater with a body , how can you use it against her like this , ruin her life , ruin j.r.

[ scene_break ] tad : j.r. , i do n't know what to say . i keep thinking if i 'd stopped off at a bar or a restaurant , something , i would n't be in a position to destroy your mother 's life . j.r. : look , if you 're making this whole thing up to get even with her for sleeping with slater -- jamie : oh , come on . this is my dad we 're talking about , not yours . tad : if i wanted to get even with somebody , there are a lot easier ways to do it without hurting either one of you . jamie : there 's no way derek will give up the tape ? and then that way , you could lie on the stand . tad : no , he 's not about to give up his hard - won evidence . in any case , if i refuse to cooperate , any da worth his salt is going to use my words to convict your mother . i should 've known derek was going to bug my house . i am supposed to be a pi , for god 's sake . jamie : you have n't been yourself in weeks . you 've been acting really weird . this is why , is n't it ? tad : what can i say ? it was bad enough that dixie was sleeping with that jackass . when i found out that she 'd destroyed my last chance of ever hooking up with kate , it makes me sick . j.r. : if all this is true , how come you did n't try to confront them back then , back when madden w still alive ? how come you did n't try to convince my mother to set him free ? tad : because i did n't care ! as much as i did n't like what she was into , i thought eventually she would be able to help me find kate . i wanted my daughter back . i thought she was going to be able to give me some kind of hope , to give me some kind of lead . when i realized that hope was dead , it was already too late . jamie : why did n't you tell us ? tad : i wanted to , on more than one occasion . then all i had to do was look at your face , to think about what you 'd already been through with your mother . now you 're tight with her again , you love her . whatever she did , i am not going to take your mother away from you all over again . i did n't want to be the one to tell you that she had killed your last lead to your sister . j.r. : but now here you are , about to tell the whole world . tad : i do n't exactly have a choice . derek is threatening me with all kinds of charges . j.r. : well , there 's still one way out . i can make you disappear .

[ dixie sighs ] dixie : i 'm open to suggestion . zach : well , i think the first thing we need to do is keep your ex - husband from talking . dixie : well , considering he hates me , i think it 's going to be a little difficult to get him to retract that story . zach : i guess what i 'm saying is if you ca n't shut him up , i can . i do n't know why people do n't know about this . [ scene_break ] babe : if you 're thinking about going off on j.r. again , save it . he did n't kill dr. madden . josh : i know . it was n't j.r . babe : you really mean that ? josh : i wish i did n't . greg madden and i did n't share blood , but he still raised me . he may have been demented , but did he deserve to be tortured and killed that way ? babe : what happened to him was hideous . josh : yeah , well , a few days ago , i would 've said he deserved a lot worse . but if it was n't for greg madden , i would n't be here right now . and if i had a way to get some justice , to make someone pay for whoever did that , should n't i ? babe : you 're having doubts ? josh : he did steal her kid , refused to tell her where her little girl was . maybe i should take it easy on her because of that , feel bad for her , but i do n't . babe : are you -- are you saying that dixie -- josh : dixie is a liar . they 're all liars . kendall , slater , the fights , the jealousy -- they made that up entirely , 100 % . they concocted that whole alibi so that -- so that slater and that demented mother - in - law of yours can get away with torture and murder . [ scene_break ] dixie : so , how are you going to keep tad from talking ? zach : whatever it takes . dixie : what does that mean ? zach : it means i 'm not going to let him get away with this . dixie : what are you exactly considering doing ? zach : i did n't start this , dixie . he drew first blood , and every action has a consequence . dixie : what are you talking about ? you 're not going to hurt him . zach : what is it with you ? what do you care ? the man despises you . why do you care what happens to him ? dixie : i do n't know . i just do . [ scene_break ] tad : granted , dixie 's done some pretty low things in the past few years , but for some unexplainable reason , it still matters to me what happens to her . j.r. : good . then you wo n't have any problem with me trying to get rid of you . jamie : ease up on the godfather routine . j.r. : look , i did n't say i was going to whack him . i mean bounce you out of the country , as in a thousand miles from dixie and her whole trial . tad : that 's exactly what i was hoping you 'd say . if you let me use the chandler corporate jet , there 'll be no trail for the cops to follow . that 's why i called you both over here tonight anyway , because i wanted to say good- bye . jamie : wait a second . how long are you planning to stay away ? tad : there 's no way of knowing . let 's see what happens after dixie 's trial , see what the atmosphere is like . i might be able to come back after that . j.r. : you willing to do this ? leave your life and your family , risk being a fugitive , all to spare mom ? tad : i 'm willing to do it for you . look , i ca n't be charged as a fugitive if i have n't been subpoenaed , which means i have to leave pine valley tonight . [ scene_break ] dixie : just try to listen to me , ok ? j.r. and jamie love their father . i could never look them in the eyes again if something happened to tad because of me . zach : uh - huh . but it 's ok for him to cut you off at the knees ? dixie : i have hurt tad -- [ zach sighs ] dixie : beyond belief . he does n't deserve any more suffering . zach : ok . i 'm sorry , i do n't understand . you 've apologized about what happened to kate . you 've tried to explain to him what happened to kate . nothing justifies what he 's doing to you right now . dixie : well , could you try to understand , just think about it a little bit ? i actually do n't care what it costs me . i ca n't hurt tad again . [ scene_break ] tad : no matter what it costs me , i 'm not going to hurt dixie again . jamie : even if it means you may never be able to come back to pine valley ? if dixie 's convicted , derek most likely is going to have a grudge . he could make it impossible for you to ever come back home . tad : if i testify , dixie will be convicted . in the long haul , it does n't matter what running means for me . i 'm not going to be responsible for him taking dixie away from you again . [ scene_break ] dixie : look , zach , i know you know what it 's like being robbed of the chance to raise your own child . now , you may not like me very much because of this , but i did that to tad . ca n't you see that ? i robbed him of his rights as a father . i gave our child to strangers instead of back to him to raise ? i hurt that man beyond words . i ca n't live with causing him any more pain . i ca n't do it . and i understand this is n't just about me . but it would mean so much to me . please , i beg you , just leave tad alone . [ scene_break ] kendall : how do we shut tad 's smarmy , lying mouth ? ryan : you 're asking me ? kendall : well , he 's your friend -- or he was , for a while . i mean , is n't there something you can think of , some button that we could push to get him to just shut up with this stupid lie ? ryan : you know what , kendall ? it 's not like tad to outright lie . kendall : no -- it 's like me . i mean , you got to admit , this is vintage kendall . if i wanted to get even with the love of my life for taking my child and supposedly sleeping with the person that i hate , i would probably come up with something a lot worse than tad did . now , i do n't approve , but i get it . i mean , i know that this affair is fake and it 's killing me . tad -- i mean , he 's probably completely out of his mind right now . ryan : well , if that 's true , then there 's nothing i can do to make him take it back . kendall : so i 'll help you . ryan : kendall , come on . we go over there , we challenge his story , he 's just going to kick us out . kendall : i think tad will listen when i tell him that zach and dixie 's affair is one big act .

[ scene_break ] rex : you 're right . if we 'd known what was going on with shane , he might not have ended up on that roof . but if i had n't hacked into his myface account , we might not have ended up there in time . so yes , we need to respect shane 's privacy , but this snooping is n't about finding out what girl he likes or if he 's tried weed . we 're talking about suicide . gigi : so what are you saying ? we should listen to it ? rex : maybe .

reva : you 're telling me that you do n't want me to do whatever i can to help our daughter ? josh : i 'm telling you that we have enough trouble right now . we do n't need you going off under some ... into some time warp from which you may never return . i ca n't let you do this . christopher : it is highly unlikely that anything like that would happen . josh : you know what ? `` highly unlikely `` is not good enough . reva : this could be the key to helping marah . i know it . christopher knows what he 's doing . i 'll be fine . you need to probably leave . josh : what ? reva : we have to get started . josh : you know , i 'm not going anywhere . if you 're going to do this , if you 're going to take this risk , i 'm going to be here by your side . reva : i do n't know . i mean , is that okay ?

reva : yes . christopher : where are you ? reva : i do n't really know . christopher : your perception is clear , so take a look around and tell me where you are . reva : it 's light , but i ca n't really see anything . maryanne : reva ?

reva : yes . she 's still here , but i ca n't reach her . christopher : find your way to her . do n't push . let it be on her terms . let maryanne be your guide . reva : is that what you want , maryanne ? you stay there . i 'll come to you . josh : where is she going ? reva : hi . i 'm here . you look like you have a lot to tell me . that 's why you keep coming to me . that 's why i 'm here . but it 's not the only reason . my daughter 's in trouble . you know that . i think you are , too . i can see it . maybe we can help each other . tony : you were looking for me ? what 's up ? billy : well , i talked to josh , and he said that you offered to help my niece , and i just wondered what kind of help you 're offering . tony : well , billy , what kind of help you need ? you know i 'd do anything for marah . you know that , right ? billy : great . that 's just what i wanted to hear . see , josh is going to play this by the rules , and i think it 's time to think outside the box , and i 'm hoping that 's where you come in . harley : whoa , whoa , whoa . hey , what is that supposed to mean ? alan : alexandra , what a difference it 's made already in phillip 's life . when he holds little emma , he lights up . i mean , it 's ... and , of course , elizabeth and emma have been bonding . so all of the fears we had are totally unfounded . gus : look , i 'm just really happy everything worked out well . so i 'm going to go . i 've got to go find harley . i 'm going to give her the news . now , should n't you two be getting under way , maybe going to the mall , picking out lots of little pink things for the kid ? alexandra : hitting the mall , you say ? gus : you know what ? better yet , there is a discount outlet on highway nine . that 's where harley gets all of zach and jude 's stuff . alexandra : oh , dear . i 'm not surprised . gus : you want anything else ? can i help with anything else before i go ? alan : i think you 've done enough , son . i 'll check in with you later . gus : i 'll talk to you . that 's discount outlet , highway nine . normal folks go there . alexandra : well , alan , this has been quite a year for you , has n't it ? a new son , a new granddaughter . alan : the spaulding family is expanding , alexandra . elizabeth and phillip are getting better every day . i think the future of this family is brighter than ever . alexandra : reall ? well , i just wish the spauldings ... spaulding company were faring as well . alan : do you have to rain on my parade ? alexandra : no , no . no , darling . i do n't mean to . i 'm sorry . it 's just that i do want to remind you that emma can disappear as quickly as the price of spaulding stock , you know , if that hellcat of a mother of hers decides to maybe take her away again . ( knocking on door ) phillip : lizzie . lizzie : hey . phillip : hi , honey . i thought ... lizzie : you probably thought that i 'd be behind bars by now , huh ? did n't you ? phillip : oh , honey , what happened ? lizzie : well , by the time we got home , everyone was so relieved that emma was okay that they did n't even pay any attention to me when i told them that i was going to go take a nap . so i had to get out of the house , daddy . i had to come see you . and daddy , i never would have hurt emma . i mean , i did n't know what to do when i first saw her , but you know i never , ever would have hurt her . beth : i have some things i need to say to you . olivia : i do n't think this is a good time . beth : how could you ? how could you lie to this whole family ? my god , what a fool i was . i cried for you when you said you 'd lost your baby . how could you come up with a scheme like this and tell phillip that his baby was dead when you knew that he was in bad shape already ? did n't you know what it would do to him ? did n't you think that it would blow up in your face ? olivia : i came up with a scheme to try to keep your crazy daughter from stalking me and my baby . beth : lizzie was n't stalking you . and when she took emma from this house , she did so so she could take her straight to phillip so she could help her father get better . olivia : please , spare me the party line . beth : hey , i know what lizzie did was wrong . i know she has issues . i know the two of you have problems . but i also know that this incident was n't entirely her fault . olivia : kidnapping my baby was n't her fault ? beth : no , it was your fault , too . olivia : it was my fault , too ? yeah . beth : if you had been honest with us from the beginning , lizzie would n't have had reason to take emma from this house , because emma would have already been part of the family . olivia : you know something , beth ? i do n't want to be a part of this family . in fact , i wish i 'd never laid eyes on a spaulding . beth : well , if you did n't , you would n't have that little girl over there . hey , you think that i do n't know what you 're going through ? alan spent years trying to keep phillip and me apart . he tried every trick in the book . olivia : yeah , well , now look at you . you 're the crown jewel of the spaulding collection . beth : and it took years to find my place in the family . olivia : and was it worth it , beth ? beth : yeah , it was . because now i have a family around my children that loves them and protects them , and they would do the same for emma if you would let them . olivia : so you think that having a family like the spauldings is better than having no family at all . you are as crazy as your kid , and i want you to leave . beth : no . no , olivia , i 'm not going to leave . and neither are you . alan : what would olivia have to gain by taking emma away from us ? i mean , does n't she want emma to be raised around a family ? alexandra : this may come as quite a shock to you , darling , but there are some people who believe that our family is a bit overbearing , controlling . alan : i do n't want to control emma . i just want to give her everything that comes with being a spaulding . alexandra : i want her to have all of that , too , my dear , but olivia just may not see it that way . alan : do n't forget , emma is also phillip 's daughter , and he needs her . i mean , it 's ... it 's made a huge difference in his life , alexandra . alexandra : yes . well , then , we have to convince olivia just to stay put . alan : all right . i 'll call my lawyers , and we 'll make it impossible for her to make a move . alexandra : oh , alan , alan , please , you are way off base here . now , if you do n't listen to me , you will drive olivia away , and you will lose your granddaughter forever . harley : you guys , marah does not need the kind of help you 're talking about . tony : and how would you know what kind of help we 're talking about , harley ? harley : because i know who i 'm talking to , tony . tony : oh , okay . harley : billy , you ca n't do this . billy : look , all i know is i want to get my hands on the woman who caused those girls and the rest of us so much pain . i got my family into this ; i 'd like to get my family out . harley : i know . that 's what we all want . but you ca n't do it the way you 're thinking . you 've got to sit back . you 've got to just let frank handle it , you know ? do n't interfere in this investigation , please . you 're going to hurt marah more than you 're going to help her , trust me . billy : i appreciate your concern . i think we 're just coming at this from two different places , that 's all . i 'll be in touch , tony . tony : any time . anything for marah , billy . bill : hey , dad . what 's going on ? billy : son , eden . eden : hi , billy . billy : hi . so how 's things at the office ? bill : oh , pretty good , pretty good . what are you doing here ? are you helping out with the campaign or ... billy : oh , do n't you wish ? no , i actually came down here to try to scare up some help to find that carrie woman so we can get the charges against your cousin dropped , but i did n't have any luck . bill : right , right . well , listen , is there anything i can do ? billy : no . you 're doing just fine . bill : all right . billy : taking care of the office is great . it takes a great load off my mind not having to worry about that . are you okay ? i mean , you look all ... you look all flush , like you 're carrying some big old secret around with you . eden : me ? no , no secret . billy : no secret ? eden : i 'm worried about marah . billy : oh . you sure that 's all ? bill : come on , we 've got to tell him . eden : no . bill : we 've got to tell him . we 've got to tell him . dad , your son is getting married . billy : you love my boy ? eden : more than anything . and i promise to spend the rest of my life making him happy . billy : well , that 's all i need to hear . come here . well , congratulations . bill : thank you . billy : you tell your mom yet ? bill : no , i have n't gotten around to it . billy : you 'd better get to it . hey , this is great news . and that 's something our family can use right now , some good news . see you . bill : well , what about that , huh ? i told you he 'd like you . eden : mmm . harley : tony , why do n't you stay out of this ? because your kind of help is going to cause more problems than it 's going to solve . tony : what do you mean , `` my kind of help , `` harley ? what does that mean ? harley : let 's not pretend . everybody in town knows what kind of business you run . tony : really ? what kind of business would that be ? you tell me . harley : fine . fine . i just do n't want to see marah or anybody in her family hurt because somebody made a stupid move . tony : okay . harley : that 's all i 'm saying . tony : all right , fine . you can relax , because i 'm not going to do anything to hurt marah . well , what do you know ? the happy couple now . congratulations , eden . see you guys . bill : wow , that 's ... harley : congratulations for what ? eden : nicky did n't tell you ? harley : obviously not . eden : we 're engaged . bill : yep . harley : wow . that 's terrific . bill : well , thank you very much . come on , show her the ring . you can show her the ring . show her the ring . harley : and gus knows about this ? gus : hey , people ! hello . eden : hi . gus : honey , i got some news . wait until you hear . harley : wait until you hear my news . eden and bill are engaged , but i guess you already know about that . bill : looks like it 's going to be a race to the altar . reva : my god . christopher ... christopher : tell me what 's happening . tell me where you are . reva : i 'm there . christopher : where , reva ? reva : the fairgrounds . i 'm in her world . there 's music , laughter . i 'm seeing everything maryanne saw the night she died . christopher : maryanne brought you back to observe . reva : i 'm not here to observe . i 'm here to bear witness . joshua ? josh : i 'm right here , reva . reva : no . you 're there . i see you . you 're so young , so earnest . christopher : does maryanne like talking to him ? reva : they 're talking about the fair , about springfield . she has all the money she wants . she can go anywhere she wants . but she loves springfield . she 's happy here . she 's so happy . it seems like she 's out here for the first time in a very long time . oh , no . christopher : what , reva ? reva : it 's her . carrie . all - new -- beyonce , mi alan : well , are n't you going to tell me how to solve this problem with emma and olivia ? alexandra : of course . and i would love to , darling , but you 'll never buy my theory . alan : try me . i will listen . alexandra : oh ... alan : i mean , both of us want phillip to come home to a very happy family , be happy with his family , and we want emma to be a part of this family , so ... alexandra : i want emma to be a part of this family . we all do , of course . but we wo n't get it by going after olivia like a couple of rabid dogs . alan : is this the speech where i 'm supposed to use honey instead of vinegar to get what i want ? alexandra : that 's the one . i say , darling , we take it even one step further and we give olivia everything she wants . olivia : now get the hell out of my house . just leave me alone so i can ... beth : so you can run away ? then what ? olivia : you 're just as bad as the rest of them . you come into my house , you insult me , you tell me i ca n't take care of my baby . i want you to leave now . beth : do n't worry . i 'm almost finished . olivia : get it out of your system . tell me why i should stay in springfield . beth : oh , no , olivia . i do n't want you to stay in springfield , believe me . if it were up to me , i would drive you to the airport myself , and i would put you on a plane to a destination of your choice . but it 's not about me . it 's about phillip . and i do n't know what would happen to him if he lost emma now that he 's found her . he may fall apart again , and i can not , i will not let that happen again . i love him , and i want him to be happy . i need him to be healthy for my children . lizzie and james need him . emma needs him . so you think about it . i know what i want for my children . you need to decide what you want for yours . lizzie : when i first saw emma , the only thing i could think was , `` i 've got to get her out of here . i 've got to get her away from olivia . `` and i just knew that if we could get to you . then everything would be okay . phillip : i ca n't tell you how much it means to me that you still feel that way , that you feel like i can protect you . because i know i have n't been much good at that lately . lizzie : daddy , you protected me today . you took my side against everyone . phillip : yeah , well , you know , i 'm not crazy about the fact that you scared everybody , and i do n't want you to make decisions that cause you pain . but i could n't just let them gang up on you . i 'm always going to be on your side . lizzie : and i 'm on your side , too . well , you 're feeling better , are n't you ? i mean , you ... you know , you seem more like yourself . phillip : i 'm getting there . lizzie : you 're not really going to go back living with olivia or anything when you leave here , are you ? phillip : she 's my wife . lizzie : dad , that 's a technicality . phillip : honey , we 'll just ... we 'll have to see how it goes , okay ? so how do you like having a little sister ? lizzie : oh , are you kidding ? i love it . i mean , at first , i was n't so sure , but she 's really great . phillip : she does look exactly like you when you were a baby . she does . lizzie : tell that to olivia . she 'll go nuts . so , does anyone else know about her besides us ? have you told uncle rick yet ? phillip : not yet . lizzie : he 's going to love that , the two of you having a little baby girl together . mom and nana said his baby 's really cute , too . maybe i could even baby - sit them ? i mean , i guess i 'd never really considered that before , but for them ... phillip : hey , think about how much they 're going to look up to you . lizzie : yeah . they will , wo n't they ? phillip : mm - hmm . lizzie : i mean , i could take them shopping or i could get their ears pierced . or i could ... there 's lots of stuff . phillip : everything 's going to be okay , honey . we 're going to be together , and we 're going to take care of each other . and that 's all that matters . lizzie : that 's what you want , is n't it , for us to be together ? phillip : we 're a family . lizzie : yes , we are . phillip : hey , where are you going ? lizzie : well , today you took care of me , and now it 's my turn to take care of you . i 'm going to have to figure out some way to get along with olivia . phillip : good luck . harley : well , i 've got to get back to work , you guys , because i 'm manning the phones . and you look like you could use some sleep . gus : yeah , i would love to have some sleep . bill : hey , you know what we should do ? go out and celebrate sometime . have a nice little dinner , the four of us , you know ? all right , well , i 'll call you , okay ? but we 've got some more campaigning to do out there , so we 'll catch you later , all right ? gus : all right . bill : take care . gus : all right . are you ready for the news ? harley : first , i have a couple of issues that i 'd like to discuss with you . reva : carrie shows up and the whole world tilts . her energy is so intense , twisted . she 's so angry , domineering . maryanne feels claustrophobic . i sense what she feels . i feel it myself . christopher : just relax , reva , and breathe deeply . what you 're feeling is a vision from the past . it is n't reality . in reality you are here with me . reva : but it feels ... maryanne 's so trapped . she feels so trapped and angry . christopher : it 's not real , reva . you have to remember there are two of you . you are here with me . maryanne is not . reva : she 's hurting her . carrie wants her to come home , but maryanne wants to be left alone . she 's begging for her freedom . do n't send her away . let her stay . she wants to stay . but aunt carrie keeps insisting . maryanne , maryanne ! come back ! i ca n't find you . i do n't feel right . something 's not right . reva : maryanne feels so dizzy , hot . i feel so dizzy . christopher : no , reva . maryanne feels dizzy . josh : alan had drugged the beer . christopher : you are right here with me in your own house . reva : i 'm in a car . i 'm going too fast . it 's raining . stop the car . i ca n't see . slow down . josh : okay , you have to stop this right now . christopher : all right , reva . i 'm going to count backwards from three . and as i count , you are going to pull yourself out of this deep vision and into the light of reality . three ... you 're coming back now . you 're separating yourself from maryanne 's experiences . two ... reva : someone open a window . someone open a window , please . it 's hot . christopher : reva , reva , you need to come back now . it 's over . back into your reality . back into your body when i clap my hands . one . reva ? reva : i feel so lightheaded . christopher : oh , god . you had me as scared as i 've ever been . josh : it 's all right , darling . it 's over . it 's finished . reva : slow down , alan . slow down . slow down . josh : i 'm not alan , reva . it 's me . it 's josh . reva : slow down the car . josh : reva , it 's josh . reva : joshua , tell him to stop . i want to get out . i want to get out of the car . stop . you 're going too fast ! stop the car ! josh : reva ... reva : stop the car ! josh : reva , come back now . reva ! ( sounds of car crash ) reva : ooh , it 's so cold . it 's so cold . josh : reva , come back . come back to us , reva . reva , come on back . it 's okay . it 's okay . it 's all right . reva : i have to get out of the water . josh : reva ... reva : i have to get out of the water ! it 's too cold , i have to get out . it 's too cold ! josh : reva ! reva : it 's too cold ! i 've got to get out ! josh : please ... reva : i 've got to get out . i 've got to get out ! ( coughing ) you survived . why did n't they see you ? you got out of that car alive . the angels were with you that night . maryanne : then they left me . reva : they left me . i did n't die , and they left me . josh : you have got to end this right now . christopher : reva , it 's time to let go now . come back , reva . reva : they left me . josh : reva ? maryanne : they left me . reva : they left me . maryanne : why did you leave me ? reva : why did you leave me ? carrie : i did n't leave you , maryanne . i 'd never leave you . i 'm here , maryanne . i 'm here now . and nothing , nothing is going to hurt you again ever . i promise you , maryanne , i promise you . olivia : well , i do n't know what to do . there 's a part of me that just wants to scoop you up and take you so far away from here . and there 's another part that thinks that that 's selfish , because you deserve a daddy . he loves you so much , em . and you deserve a family , no matter how crazy they are . and i think i can keep you safe here , you know , with their help . problem is i have a hard time tolerating them , and so if i stay here , i 'm probably just going to go crazy , and that 's not going to be good for either one of us . oh , honey , i wish you could tell me the right thing to do . alexandra : well , we have to convince olivia the important thing is that she and emma are very happy here in springfield . alan : well , this will require quite an acting job on my part , because there 's nothing i would enjoy more than never seeing olivia again . alexandra : ah , but unfortunately , they come as a package deal , at least for the time being . alan : hmm . well , once phillip gets back on his feet and returns , we will all three put our heads together and come up with the right plan , i 'm sure . but , alexandra , in the meantime , i think gus had a very good idea . why do n't we go on a shopping spree for emma ? i mean , it sounds like fun . alexandra : it is . it 's absolutely a lovely idea . yes , we 've got to cover all our bases before we make a pitch . alan : after you . alexandra : thank you . harley : i ca n't believe you did n't tell me about eden and bill . what secrets are you keeping from me ? gus : i 'm not keeping any secrets . i 've hardly seen you at all . my father called me over to help with the whole lizzie catastrophe . i do n't think that means i 'm keeping any secrets . harley : what about lizzie ? what 's going on with her ? gus : she 's fine , she 's fine . the bottom line is she 's got a new little sister . olivia 's baby is alive . harley : what ? gus : yes . olivia was keeping the baby away from the family , away from spaulding , because she was afraid what lizzie was going to do . harley : oh , my gosh . i 'm not saying that i 'm on olivia 's side , but i ca n't say i blame her , because i might do the same thing if somebody was after my kid . gus : lizzie took the baby , took her out of olivia 's house . but only over to ravenwood to show phillip and kind of , you know , snap him out of his trance . but the thing is it kind of worked . this is one of those things that 's like a happy ending . bottom line is i have a new little niece , and her name is emma . harley : that 's nice . gus : it 's just ... there 's a lot of changes going on , you know ? harley : yeah , there is a lot of changes going on . got to hand it to lizzie , though , i 'll tell you . no matter what you say about her , when she wants something , she sure finds what she 's after . gus : well , she 's like a little detective . harley : i could use a detective like that on this caroline caruthers case , because the longer time goes by , the less likely it is we 're going to find her alive , and then i do n't know what 's going to happen with marah . reva : she 's here with me . josh : mary ... maryanne is ... reva : aunt carrie . she found me after the accident . she found me on the riverbank . josh : what is she ... what is she doing ? what is carrie doing ? reva : holding us tight . so tight . so tight . josh : reva ? reva ? reva : i ca n't breathe ! josh : reva ? carrie : i wo n't allow your life to be ruined by these people , by these people who do n't love you , by these people who could never , ever love you as much as i do . never , maryanne , never . never . josh : reva ? christopher : reva ? josh : what the hell is going on ? christopher : i do n't know ! it 's never happened before . josh : reva ! reva ! reva ! she 's not breathing . get her down here . reva ! reva ? reva ? josh : next on `` guiding light . `` blake : ross , it 's not like you to get the jitters . you want to tell me exactly what 's going on ? bill : i 'm his campaign manager , okay , honey , and it 's part of my job , okay ? i 've got to get him ready for the fight . and between you and me , looks like danny really has a fight on his hands . josh : darling , are you there ? reva , come on . rick : pulse is faint . how long was she under ? christopher : not long , but she went through some sort of trauma . | reva corrals christopher and tells him they must put aside the recent strain on their relationship to help marah . reva feels if she can find out why maryanne caruthers is reaching out to her , she can clear marah 's name . christopher is concerned but agrees , partly out of guilt for having lied to reva for so long . he hypnotizes her and she finds herself not only making contact with young maryanne but also experiencing , side by side with her , the fateful night she went over the bridge . reva sees maryanne 's encounter with young josh , the other young men and , surprisingly , a young carrie . in a heated discussion , carrie tries to exert control over maryanne and make her come home , but maryanne takes an independent stance and goes off with the men . reva then witnesses the real murder of maryanne caruthers as carrie finds maryanne on the riverbank after the car went over the bridge . carrie and maryanne continue the argument from before but a weakened maryanne is no match for carrie who suffocates her with a shawl around her neck . reva , who is experiencing all that maryanne is , begins also to suffocate as christopher races to break the hypnosis and save her life . josh tracks down harley for help in locating carrie but harley has little to offer . tony arrives with an alternative : he knows some people who might be able to help . josh finds himself tempted , if only for a moment , before rejecting tony 's help , saying that he wo n't compound the mistake he made 30 years ago by commissioning a hit . | <s>[INST] gus : i 'm glad everything worked out all right ; baby emma home safe and sound . alan : thanks to you . you made it all possible . alexandra : so you found them ? alan : yes , we did . elizabeth had taken emma to see her father at ravenwood . it was all innocent . gus : let 's just say no one got hurt . alan : yeah . alexandra : oh , i ca n't believe we have a brand - new baby in the family . alan : yes , a baby girl . and oh , you should see her . she is beautiful . i ca n't wait to see her again . olivia : it 's okay , sweetie . you know what ? you 're not going to have to deal with crazy lizzie or any of those people ever again . i 'm going to have us packed and out of here in no time . i was so stupid to come back here in the first place . but it 's okay because i 'm going to get you away from those vultures . lizzie : i just need to ... olivia : do n't ever even speak a word to me . phillip : olivia , calm down . olivia : calm down ? my baby was snatched from her crib and taken god knows where lizzie : i am not disturbed , olivia . olivia : oh , that 's right . only normal people kidnap babies . phillip : stop it . ( knock at door ) beth : we need to talk . bill : all right . well , if i have n't told you before , danny really appreciates your support . all right , thanks . tony : nice job , man . bill : you know what , ton ? i like people . i really do . and it really helps for a job like this . i 'll tell you that much . tony : well , that 's good . bill : by the way , thank you very much for helping out today . we 're really shorthanded . tony : you do n't need to thank me . bill : i 've also got to thank you for something else the other day . tony : what 's that ? bill : oh , the little ... you know , the little , `` if you want something , go for it `` pep talk we had . tony : oh , the pep talk . yeah , yeah . bill : the pep talk , the talk . you told me i was over - thinking and not to do that . well , guess what i did ? tony : what ? bill : i asked eden to marry me . we 're engaged . ( laughs ) i ca n't believe it . tony : congratulations , man . bill : well , thank you . thank you . thank you very much . in fact , i 've got to go pick her up now . do you mind hanging out a little bit ? tony : no . no , no . i got it . bill : you all right ? it 's good ? tony : take care . bill : it 's good ? all right . take care ! tony : have a good one . bill : thanks again , buddy . tony : congratulations , eden . you got what you wanted . billy : hey . tony : hi , billy . what 's going on ? you just missed bill . billy : oh , that 's okay . i came to see you . christopher : you want me to hypnotize you ? reva : i want to save my daughter 's life , and i think this is the one way to make it happen . christopher : no . i already told you that ... reva : christopher , i have to contact maryanne caruthers . you owe me . christopher : reva , this is not something you can force . it has to happen in its own time . reva : i do n't have the time ! my daughter needs me to use this gift now . you have to help me make that happen . i 'm going to trust you again . christopher : all right . reva : okay . i know this can work . after carrie knocked me out in the tunnel , before rick and harley shook me awake , i was right on the edge of consciousness and maryanne came to me . i need to know if it 's possible to recreate that sensation of being on the edge again . christopher : yes , but there 's a possibility that this could go too far , reva . you 'll be very vulnerable , not only psychically , but physically . reva : i do n't care . josh : i do . i care . somebody want to tell me what 's going on here ? reva : you 're telling me that you do n't want me to do whatever i can to help our daughter ? josh : i 'm telling you that we have enough trouble right now . we do n't need you going off under some ... into some time warp from which you may never return . i ca n't let you do this . christopher : it is highly unlikely that anything like that would happen . josh : you know what ? `` highly unlikely `` is not good enough . reva : this could be the key to helping marah . i know it . christopher knows what he 's doing . i 'll be fine . you need to probably leave . josh : what ? reva : we have to get started . josh : you know , i 'm not going anywhere . if you 're going to do this , if you 're going to take this risk , i 'm going to be here by your side . reva : i do n't know . i mean , is that okay ? josh : it 's going to have to be okay . christopher : i think it 'll be okay . reva : all right . then we should get started . and i need to have you promise me that i wo n't slip so far to the other side that you ca n't bring me back . christopher : i would never let that happen . josh , why do n't you sit here ? all right . now i 'm going to count backwards from three to one . when i reach the number one , you will be fully in an alternate reality . three ... a reality where you will find all the answers that you seek . two ... you will make contact with maryanne caruthers , and you will see exactly what she wants you to see . one . reva , can you hear me ? reva : yes . christopher : where are you ? reva : i do n't really know . christopher : your perception is clear , so take a look around and tell me where you are . reva : it 's light , but i ca n't really see anything . maryanne : reva ? reva ? reva ? christopher : can you see anything now , reva ? reva : maryanne ! josh : what is that ? what is she doing ? christopher : reva , no matter what happens you have to stay aware of my presence . listen to my voice . i 'll be right here beside you the whole time . reva : i know , christopher . christopher : can you still see maryanne ? reva : yes . she 's still here , but i ca n't reach her . christopher : find your way to her . do n't push . let it be on her terms . let maryanne be your guide . reva : is that what you want , maryanne ? you stay there . i 'll come to you . josh : where is she going ? reva : hi . i 'm here . you look like you have a lot to tell me . that 's why you keep coming to me . that 's why i 'm here . but it 's not the only reason . my daughter 's in trouble . you know that . i think you are , too . i can see it . maybe we can help each other . tony : you were looking for me ? what 's up ? billy : well , i talked to josh , and he said that you offered to help my niece , and i just wondered what kind of help you 're offering . tony : well , billy , what kind of help you need ? you know i 'd do anything for marah . you know that , right ? billy : great . that 's just what i wanted to hear . see , josh is going to play this by the rules , and i think it 's time to think outside the box , and i 'm hoping that 's where you come in . harley : whoa , whoa , whoa . hey , what is that supposed to mean ? alan : alexandra , what a difference it 's made already in phillip 's life . when he holds little emma , he lights up . i mean , it 's ... and , of course , elizabeth and emma have been bonding . so all of the fears we had are totally unfounded . gus : look , i 'm just really happy everything worked out well . so i 'm going to go . i 've got to go find harley . i 'm going to give her the news . now , should n't you two be getting under way , maybe going to the mall , picking out lots of little pink things for the kid ? alexandra : hitting the mall , you say ? gus : you know what ? better yet , there is a discount outlet on highway nine . that 's where harley gets all of zach and jude 's stuff . alexandra : oh , dear . i 'm not surprised . gus : you want anything else ? can i help with anything else before i go ? alan : i think you 've done enough , son . i 'll check in with you later . gus : i 'll talk to you . that 's discount outlet , highway nine . normal folks go there . alexandra : well , alan , this has been quite a year for you , has n't it ? a new son , a new granddaughter . alan : the spaulding family is expanding , alexandra . elizabeth and phillip are getting better every day . i think the future of this family is brighter than ever . alexandra : reall ? well , i just wish the spauldings ... spaulding company were faring as well . alan : do you have to rain on my parade ? alexandra : no , no . no , darling . i do n't mean to . i 'm sorry . it 's just that i do want to remind you that emma can disappear as quickly as the price of spaulding stock , you know , if that hellcat of a mother of hers decides to maybe take her away again . ( knocking on door ) phillip : lizzie . lizzie : hey . phillip : hi , honey . i thought ... lizzie : you probably thought that i 'd be behind bars by now , huh ? did n't you ? phillip : oh , honey , what happened ? lizzie : well , by the time we got home , everyone was so relieved that emma was okay that they did n't even pay any attention to me when i told them that i was going to go take a nap . so i had to get out of the house , daddy . i had to come see you . and daddy , i never would have hurt emma . i mean , i did n't know what to do when i first saw her , but you know i never , ever would have hurt her . beth : i have some things i need to say to you . olivia : i do n't think this is a good time . beth : how could you ? how could you lie to this whole family ? my god , what a fool i was . i cried for you when you said you 'd lost your baby . how could you come up with a scheme like this and tell phillip that his baby was dead when you knew that he was in bad shape already ? did n't you know what it would do to him ? did n't you think that it would blow up in your face ? olivia : i came up with a scheme to try to keep your crazy daughter from stalking me and my baby . beth : lizzie was n't stalking you . and when she took emma from this house , she did so so she could take her straight to phillip so she could help her father get better . olivia : please , spare me the party line . beth : hey , i know what lizzie did was wrong . i know she has issues . i know the two of you have problems . but i also know that this incident was n't entirely her fault . olivia : kidnapping my baby was n't her fault ? beth : no , it was your fault , too . olivia : it was my fault , too ? yeah . beth : if you had been honest with us from the beginning , lizzie would n't have had reason to take emma from this house , because emma would have already been part of the family . olivia : you know something , beth ? i do n't want to be a part of this family . in fact , i wish i 'd never laid eyes on a spaulding . beth : well , if you did n't , you would n't have that little girl over there . hey , you think that i do n't know what you 're going through ? alan spent years trying to keep phillip and me apart . he tried every trick in the book . olivia : yeah , well , now look at you . you 're the crown jewel of the spaulding collection . beth : and it took years to find my place in the family . olivia : and was it worth it , beth ? beth : yeah , it was . because now i have a family around my children that loves them and protects them , and they would do the same for emma if you would let them . olivia : so you think that having a family like the spauldings is better than having no family at all . you are as crazy as your kid , and i want you to leave . beth : no . no , olivia , i 'm not going to leave . and neither are you . alan : what would olivia have to gain by taking emma away from us ? i mean , does n't she want emma to be raised around a family ? alexandra : this may come as quite a shock to you , darling , but there are some people who believe that our family is a bit overbearing , controlling . alan : i do n't want to control emma . i just want to give her everything that comes with being a spaulding . alexandra : i want her to have all of that , too , my dear , but olivia just may not see it that way . alan : do n't forget , emma is also phillip 's daughter , and he needs her . i mean , it 's ... it 's made a huge difference in his life , alexandra . alexandra : yes . well , then , we have to convince olivia just to stay put . alan : all right . i 'll call my lawyers , and we 'll make it impossible for her to make a move . alexandra : oh , alan , alan , please , you are way off base here . now , if you do n't listen to me , you will drive olivia away , and you will lose your granddaughter forever . harley : you guys , marah does not need the kind of help you 're talking about . tony : and how would you know what kind of help we 're talking about , harley ? harley : because i know who i 'm talking to , tony . tony : oh , okay . harley : billy , you ca n't do this . billy : look , all i know is i want to get my hands on the woman who caused those girls and the rest of us so much pain . i got my family into this ; i 'd like to get my family out . harley : i know . that 's what we all want . but you ca n't do it the way you 're thinking . you 've got to sit back . you 've got to just let frank handle it , you know ? do n't interfere in this investigation , please . you 're going to hurt marah more than you 're going to help her , trust me . billy : i appreciate your concern . i think we 're just coming at this from two different places , that 's all . i 'll be in touch , tony . tony : any time . anything for marah , billy . bill : hey , dad . what 's going on ? billy : son , eden . eden : hi , billy . billy : hi . so how 's things at the office ? bill : oh , pretty good , pretty good . what are you doing here ? are you helping out with the campaign or ... billy : oh , do n't you wish ? no , i actually came down here to try to scare up some help to find that carrie woman so we can get the charges against your cousin dropped , but i did n't have any luck . bill : right , right . well , listen , is there anything i can do ? billy : no . you 're doing just fine . bill : all right . billy : taking care of the office is great . it takes a great load off my mind not having to worry about that . are you okay ? i mean , you look all ... you look all flush , like you 're carrying some big old secret around with you . eden : me ?

what does that mean ? harley : let 's not pretend . everybody in town knows what kind of business you run . tony : really ? what kind of business would that be ? you tell me . harley : fine . fine . i just do n't want to see marah or anybody in her family hurt because somebody made a stupid move . tony : okay . harley : that 's all i 'm saying . tony : all right , fine . you can relax , because i 'm not going to do anything to hurt marah . well , what do you know ?

reva : the fairgrounds . i 'm in her world . there 's music , laughter . i 'm seeing everything maryanne saw the night she died . christopher : maryanne brought you back to observe . reva : i 'm not here to observe . i 'm here to bear witness . joshua ? josh : i 'm right here , reva . reva : no . you 're there . i see you . you 're so young , so earnest . christopher : does maryanne like talking to him ? reva : they 're talking about the fair , about springfield . she has all the money she wants . she can go anywhere she wants . but she loves springfield . she 's happy here . she 's so happy . it seems like she 's out here for the first time in a very long time . oh , no . christopher : what , reva ? reva : it 's her . carrie . all - new -- beyonce , mi alan : well , are n't you going to tell me how to solve this problem with emma and olivia ? alexandra : of course . and i would love to , darling , but you 'll never buy my theory . alan : try me . i will listen . alexandra : oh ... alan : i mean , both of us want phillip to come home to a very happy family , be happy with his family , and we want emma to be a part of this family , so ... alexandra : i want emma to be a part of this family . we all do , of course . but we wo n't get it by going after olivia like a couple of rabid dogs . alan : is this the speech where i 'm supposed to use honey instead of vinegar to get what i want ? alexandra : that 's the one . i say , darling , we take it even one step further and we give olivia everything she wants . olivia : now get the hell out of my house . just leave me alone so i can ... beth : so you can run away ? then what ? olivia : you 're just as bad as the rest of them . you come into my house , you insult me , you tell me i ca n't take care of my baby . i want you to leave now . beth : do n't worry . i 'm almost finished . olivia : get it out of your system . tell me why i should stay in springfield . beth : oh , no , olivia . i do n't want you to stay in springfield , believe me . if it were up to me , i would drive you to the airport myself , and i would put you on a plane to a destination of your choice . but it 's not about me . it 's about phillip . and i do n't know what would happen to him if he lost emma now that he 's found her . he may fall apart again , and i can not , i will not let that happen again . i love him , and i want him to be happy . i need him to be healthy for my children . lizzie and james need him . emma needs him . so you think about it . i know what i want for my children . you need to decide what you want for yours . lizzie : when i first saw emma , the only thing i could think was , `` i 've got to get her out of here . i 've got to get her away from olivia . `` and i just knew that if we could get to you . then everything would be okay . phillip : i ca n't tell you how much it means to me that you still feel that way , that you feel like i can protect you . because i know i have n't been much good at that lately . lizzie : daddy , you protected me today . you took my side against everyone . phillip : yeah , well , you know , i 'm not crazy about the fact that you scared everybody , and i do n't want you to make decisions that cause you pain . but i could n't just let them gang up on you . i 'm always going to be on your side . lizzie : and i 'm on your side , too . well , you 're feeling better , are n't you ? i mean , you ... you know , you seem more like yourself . phillip : i 'm getting there . lizzie : you 're not really going to go back living with olivia or anything when you leave here , are you ? phillip : she 's my wife . lizzie : dad , that 's a technicality . phillip : honey , we 'll just ... we 'll have to see how it goes , okay ? so how do you like having a little sister ? lizzie : oh , are you kidding ? i love it . i mean , at first , i was n't so sure , but she 's really great . phillip : she does look exactly like you when you were a baby . she does . lizzie : tell that to olivia . she 'll go nuts . so , does anyone else know about her besides us ? have you told uncle rick yet ? phillip : not yet . lizzie : he 's going to love that , the two of you having a little baby girl together . mom and nana said his baby 's really cute , too . maybe i could even baby - sit them ? i mean , i guess i 'd never really considered that before , but for them ... phillip : hey , think about how much they 're going to look up to you . lizzie : yeah . they will , wo n't they ? phillip : mm - hmm . lizzie : i mean , i could take them shopping or i could get their ears pierced . or i could ... there 's lots of stuff . phillip : everything 's going to be okay , honey . we 're going to be together , and we 're going to take care of each other . and that 's all that matters . lizzie : that 's what you want , is n't it , for us to be together ? phillip : we 're a family . lizzie : yes , we are . phillip : hey , where are you going ? lizzie : well , today you took care of me , and now it 's my turn to take care of you . i 'm going to have to figure out some way to get along with olivia . phillip : good luck . harley : well , i 've got to get back to work , you guys , because i 'm manning the phones . and you look like you could use some sleep . gus : yeah , i would love to have some sleep . bill : hey , you know what we should do ? go out and celebrate sometime . have a nice little dinner , the four of us , you know ? all right , well , i 'll call you , okay ? but we 've got some more campaigning to do out there , so we 'll catch you later , all right ? gus : all right . bill : take care . gus : all right . are you ready for the news ? harley : first , i have a couple of issues that i 'd like to discuss with you . reva : carrie shows up and the whole world tilts . her energy is so intense , twisted . she 's so angry , domineering . maryanne feels claustrophobic . i sense what she feels . i feel it myself . christopher : just relax , reva , and breathe deeply . what you 're feeling is a vision from the past . it is n't reality . in reality you are here with me . reva : but it feels ... maryanne 's so trapped . she feels so trapped and angry . christopher : it 's not real , reva . you have to remember there are two of you . you are here with me . maryanne is not . reva : she 's hurting her . carrie wants her to come home , but maryanne wants to be left alone . she 's begging for her freedom . do n't send her away . let her stay . she wants to stay . but aunt carrie keeps insisting . maryanne , maryanne ! come back ! i ca n't find you . i do n't feel right . something 's not right . reva : maryanne feels so dizzy , hot . i feel so dizzy . christopher : no , reva . maryanne feels dizzy . josh : alan had drugged the beer . christopher : you are right here with me in your own house . reva : i 'm in a car . i 'm going too fast . it 's raining . stop the car . i ca n't see . slow down . josh : okay , you have to stop this right now . christopher : all right , reva . i 'm going to count backwards from three . and as i count , you are going to pull yourself out of this deep vision and into the light of reality . three ... you 're coming back now . you 're separating yourself from maryanne 's experiences . two ... reva : someone open a window . someone open a window , please . it 's hot . christopher : reva , reva , you need to come back now . it 's over . back into your reality . back into your body when i clap my hands . one . reva ? reva : i feel so lightheaded . christopher : oh , god . you had me as scared as i 've ever been . josh : it 's all right , darling . it 's over . it 's finished . reva : slow down , alan . slow down . slow down . josh : i 'm not alan , reva . it 's me . it 's josh . reva : slow down the car . josh : reva , it 's josh . reva : joshua , tell him to stop . i want to get out . i want to get out of the car . stop . you 're going too fast ! stop the car ! josh : reva ... reva : stop the car ! josh : reva , come back now . reva ! ( sounds of car crash ) reva : ooh , it 's so cold . it 's so cold . josh : reva , come back . come back to us , reva . reva , come on back . it 's okay . it 's okay . it 's all right . reva : i have to get out of the water . josh : reva ... reva : i have to get out of the water ! it 's too cold , i have to get out . it 's too cold ! josh : reva ! reva : it 's too cold ! i 've got to get out ! josh : please ... reva : i 've got to get out . i 've got to get out ! ( coughing ) you survived . why did n't they see you ? you got out of that car alive . the angels were with you that night . maryanne : then they left me . reva : they left me . i did n't die , and they left me . josh : you have got to end this right now . christopher : reva , it 's time to let go now . come back , reva . reva : they left me . josh : reva ? maryanne : they left me . reva : they left me . maryanne : why did you leave me ? reva : why did you leave me ? carrie : i did n't leave you , maryanne . i 'd never leave you . i 'm here , maryanne . i 'm here now . and nothing , nothing is going to hurt you again ever . i promise you , maryanne , i promise you . olivia : well , i do n't know what to do . there 's a part of me that just wants to scoop you up and take you so far away from here . and there 's another part that thinks that that 's selfish , because you deserve a daddy . he loves you so much , em . and you deserve a family , no matter how crazy they are . and i think i can keep you safe here , you know , with their help . problem is i have a hard time tolerating them , and so if i stay here , i 'm probably just going to go crazy , and that 's not going to be good for either one of us . oh , honey , i wish you could tell me the right thing to do . alexandra : well , we have to convince olivia the important thing is that she and emma are very happy here in springfield . alan : well , this will require quite an acting job on my part , because there 's nothing i would enjoy more than never seeing olivia again . alexandra : ah , but unfortunately , they come as a package deal , at least for the time being . alan : hmm . well , once phillip gets back on his feet and returns , we will all three put our heads together and come up with the right plan , i 'm sure . but , alexandra , in the meantime , i think gus had a very good idea . why do n't we go on a shopping spree for emma ? i mean , it sounds like fun . alexandra : it is . it 's absolutely a lovely idea . yes , we 've got to cover all our bases before we make a pitch . alan : after you . alexandra : thank you . harley : i ca n't believe you did n't tell me about eden and bill . what secrets are you keeping from me ? gus : i 'm not keeping any secrets . i 've hardly seen you at all . my father called me over to help with the whole lizzie catastrophe . i do n't think that means i 'm keeping any secrets . harley : what about lizzie ? what 's going on with her ? gus : she 's fine , she 's fine . the bottom line is she 's got a new little sister . olivia 's baby is alive . harley : what ? gus : yes . olivia was keeping the baby away from the family , away from spaulding , because she was afraid what lizzie was going to do . harley : oh , my gosh . i 'm not saying that i 'm on olivia 's side , but i ca n't say i blame her , because i might do the same thing if somebody was after my kid . gus : lizzie took the baby , took her out of olivia 's house . but only over to ravenwood to show phillip and kind of , you know , snap him out of his trance . but the thing is it kind of worked . this is one of those things that 's like a happy ending . bottom line is i have a new little niece , and her name is emma . harley : that 's nice . gus : it 's just ... there 's a lot of changes going on , you know ? harley : yeah , there is a lot of changes going on . got to hand it to lizzie , though , i 'll tell you . no matter what you say about her , when she wants something , she sure finds what she 's after . gus : well , she 's like a little detective . harley : i could use a detective like that on this caroline caruthers case , because the longer time goes by , the less likely it is we 're going to find her alive , and then i do n't know what 's going to happen with marah . reva : she 's here with me . josh : mary ... maryanne is ... reva : aunt carrie . she found me after the accident . she found me on the riverbank . josh : what is she ... what is she doing ? what is carrie doing ? reva : holding us tight . so tight . so tight . josh : reva ? reva ? reva : i ca n't breathe ! josh : reva ? carrie : i wo n't allow your life to be ruined by these people , by these people who do n't love you , by these people who could never , ever love you as much as i do . never , maryanne , never . never . josh : reva ? christopher : reva ? josh : what the hell is going on ? christopher : i do n't know ! it 's never happened before . josh : reva ! reva ! reva ! she 's not breathing . get her down here . reva ! reva ? reva ? josh : next on `` guiding light . `` blake : ross , it 's not like you to get the jitters . you want to tell me exactly what 's going on ? bill : i 'm his campaign manager , okay , honey , and it 's part of my job , okay ? i 've got to get him ready for the fight . and between you and me , looks like danny really has a fight on his hands . josh : darling , are you there ? reva , come on . rick : pulse is faint . how long was she under ? christopher : not long , but she went through some sort of trauma .Summarize.[/INST]reva corrals christopher and tells him they must put aside the recent strain on their relationship to help marah . reva feels if she can find out why maryanne caruthers is reaching out to her , she can clear marah 's name . christopher is concerned but agrees , partly out of guilt for having lied to reva for so long . he hypnotizes her and she finds herself not only making contact with young maryanne but also experiencing , side by side with her , the fateful night she went over the bridge . reva sees maryanne 's encounter with young josh , the other young men and , surprisingly , a young carrie . in a heated discussion , carrie tries to exert control over maryanne and make her come home , but maryanne takes an independent stance and goes off with the men . reva then witnesses the real murder of maryanne caruthers as carrie finds maryanne on the riverbank after the car went over the bridge . carrie and maryanne continue the argument from before but a weakened maryanne is no match for carrie who suffocates her with a shawl around her neck . reva , who is experiencing all that maryanne is , begins also to suffocate as christopher races to break the hypnosis and save her life . josh tracks down harley for help in locating carrie but harley has little to offer . tony arrives with an alternative : he knows some people who might be able to help . josh finds himself tempted , if only for a moment , before rejecting tony 's help , saying that he wo n't compound the mistake he made 30 years ago by commissioning a hit .</s> | 12,673 |

[ scene_break ] carly : going to sonny 's was a complete waste of time , just like i knew it would be . i got absolutely nowhere . jax : how can sonny continue to put kristina in danger after what happened to michael ? carly : because sonny does n't believe there 's danger anymore . he thinks the whole world is safe because he 's decided to live a squeaky clean life . jax : thanks for trying . i really appreciate it . i 'm sorry if it upset you . carly : everything changed between me and sonny when michael was shot . we do n't speak the same language anymore .

[ carly giggles ] kate : it was wrong , carly . it was cruel . carly : poor sonny . his ex - wife is so insensitive . thank god he has wonderful you to protect him . kate : look , carly , i appreciate that this is a very difficult time for you . i can only imagine what it would be like to have a son in a coma . carly : okay . do n't talk about michael . you do n't know what i 'm feeling and you have no idea how much effort it 's taking not to rip your stupid hair out of your head . kate : okay , i get it , carly . i get it . you do n't like me . but do you really think that it 's fair , that it 's right , for you to torment sonny just to make yourself feel better ? to blame him for michael , to force him to give up his sons , and then to continue to rail on him ? look , if you need some grief therapy , you should go get it . you should go to jason . you should go to jax . just leave sonny the hell alone . carly : oh , that 's what this is about . you feel threatened by me . you think i 'm going to take sonny away from you . i got ta tell you , that 's exactly what you deserve . [ scene_break ] jason : who says i 'm leaving ? diane : oh , no . now do n't misunderstand me . i think everyone , everyone would prefer to have you in charge . sonny can be very difficult . unfortunately , the organization is his life , and i just do n't think he 'll be able to stay away much longer . last night , i dropped off to sonny the final executed documents for the renunciation of parental custody . he got very upset , tore up the papers , tossed them into the trash can . i suppose it was too much to expect that he would simply pop them into the nearest filing cabinet . they do , after all , sever all ties with his sons . but it 's clear that sonny is having second thoughts . jason : can you blame him ? diane : i tried to tell him that things were running very smoothly and that 's not what he wanted to hear . sonny is addicted to the power , the mystique of being a mob kingpin , the criminal in charge . and i just do n't think he 's going to be able to stay away .

[ scene_break ] elizabeth : robin ? robin : please do not tell patrick that i 'm crying . he 'll flip out and overcompensate , and anyway , i 'm being ridiculous . elizabeth : no , not at all . that guy was creepy . robin : i mean , i know better than anyone . i -- i 'm a doctor . i know that stacey did n't die because of hiv . she bled out because she had an abrupted placenta . and i also know that hiv does n't really cause any problems when you 're pregnant , as long as you take care of yourself . but then i also think about stacey and everything that she wanted to give her child and everything that that little girl is going to miss , you know ? and it just makes me feel really selfish . elizabeth : why , because you want to be a mom ? you know that every pregnancy involves risks . robin : but hiv is a chronic and potentially life - threatening disease . you know , i could develop complications at any time . elizabeth : do n't even talk like that . robin : what if i die of aids ? or what if i die of something else , and my child 's alone ? i do n't want that to happen . [ scene_break ] diane : mr. spinelli is a valued employee . and my client , mr. morgan , has a responsibility to protect his employees and maintain his property . now you are posing an active threat to an unarmed victim , namely , mr. spinelli . so deadly force would be justified and would , in fact , be defensible in a court of law . lloyd : okay , look . i can explain . diane : mr. spinelli , do you still feel that your person and life are at risk ? spinelli : most certainly . this hostile and unpleasant , not to mention ignorant , individual poses a most threatening mien . lloyd : okay , listen . i 'm sorry , okay ? just do n't let them kill me . spinelli : apologize for insulting the fair lady i was with last night . lloyd : i apologize . spinelli : say you were wrong . lloyd : i was wrong . completely . spinelli : give me all your money . lloyd : all right , here . take it . all right ? take it all . spinelli : donate all of this to the red cross , which gladly helps all people in need , regardless of race or creed . diane : consider it done . and we will just be taking all of your information so that the red cross may give you a receipt . lloyd : you know , you do n't have to do that . diane : and , of course , we will be keeping a copy for our records . very well . you can go now . spinelli : most grateful thanks . diane : mr. grasshopper , that was my pleasure . jason : okay . why was that guy pounding you ? spinelli : the jackal escorted the lovely nurse leyla mir to a celebration at the metro court last night , where she was the target of a racial slur by that bigoted neanderthal , and as her date and a fair - thinking member of the human race , the jackal was compelled to defend her and felled the odious beast with a single punch . jason : you hit him ? spinelli : i knocked him out . milo : no chance . unless , of course , he was too drunk to duck , then , maybe , you know . if you had hit him at just the right angle -- but , spinelli , you 've got to be more careful than that . for real . max : yeah , milo 's right , spinelli . you do n't go around starting fights . i mean , it 's not as if you can defend yourself . spinelli : you know , the jackal has made a concerted effort to man up and i think i 'm clearly making progress . jason : stop , spinelli . listen . defending your date is a great thing to do , okay ? but you need to be careful . if something like that happens , i want you to call me . i do n't -- i do n't want you to get hurt . [ scene_break ] kate : i 'm not threatened by you . carly : you should be , because you do n't compare on any level . sonny and i will always be connected , and you 're just a bloodless trophy . kate : great . well , i can see we 're not going to get anywhere , so if you could please , please leave sonny alone . carly : you know what i think scares you the most ? that this thing that sonny and i have , that we 've always had , we felt it long before you ever came along . sonny 's hated me and loved me , sometimes both at the same time . kate : but he 's getting on with his life . carly : you 'll never make sonny as happy as i did . you will never make him as miserable as i did . hell , you ca n't even make him as angry as i make him right now . because you and sonny , you do n't share anything that 's lasting or deep . kate : he 's outgrown you , carly . carly : no , he has n't . or i would n't make you so insecure . kate : maybe you should be insecure . you know , you 're married to a wonderful husband who deserves better than you . carly : my marriage to jax has nothing to do with this . you will never be enough for sonny . kate : you do n't know what you 're talking about . carly : everyone can see how weak and clingy you are . how deluded you are , by thinking that sonny 's going to morph into the kind of man that you need . kate : it 's very simple , carly . i believe in sonny , and i believe he 's changing his life . carly : sonny does n't change . he 's selfish to the bone . and sooner or later -- i 'm betting sooner -- he 's going to see that you 're not the angel that 's going to heal all his wounds . you 're not the madonna in the designer dress . see , you 're a pathetic workaholic who will never satisfy him , in bed or anywhere else . kate : wow . you like to consider yourself quite the expert , do n't you ? but for all your bravado , you do n't know sonny at all . carly : want to bet ?

[ scene_break ] elizabeth : being a single mom is like walking a tightrope . you move carefully , one step at a time , and if you start to lose your balance you find your way again and then you just keep on going . robin : unless you fall . elizabeth : no , no , you never fall , you never fall because you never , ever look down . you do n't let yourself think all those terrible thoughts because then you will scare yourself into not seeing all the good things . like the first time cameron told me that he wanted to be a doctor . or the first time jake picked up his little sippy cup all by himself . robin : see , that 's the life that i want to have with my child . i want to be able to appreciate all the little things . elizabeth : you know , stop doing this , stop scaring yourself . it 's a waste of time and energy . robin : when you 're right , you 're right . well , i guess i need to , uh , have a will . elizabeth : wow , so much for positive thinking . okay , yeah , you should . they 're not that hard to come up with . robin : yeah , i should , and i should think about who i will want to raise my child if something were to happen to me . my mom 's life is n't really set up for it , and i 'm not so sure it would be fair to ask uncle mac to raise yet another generation . elizabeth : what about patrick ? he is the father . robin : patrick never wanted to be a father in the first place . [ scene_break ] carly : jason , do n't tell me i should n't be here , i just need you to calm me down . jason : all right , what happened ? carly : i mean , it 's good that i came here instead of just going with my first impulse , right ? jason : yes , yes , it 's good . carly : you know , it would have been so easy , so easy . like that , i would have had him . i mean , in two minutes , in two minutes , we were right there , we were going for it . he 's deluded , he 's deluded , he is clinging to the fantasy that he is going to turn in to some new man so he can be good enough for kate . as if she is worth the time or the energy . as if she could fill sonny 's bottomless pit of need and selfishness . jason : okay , so you had a fight with sonny ? carly : no , i had a fight with kate in the lobby of the metro court . she walked up to me and she started lecturing me about my cruelty to sonny . how i need to stop , how i need to leave him alone and stop blaming him for what happened to michael . and then , i need to go to grief counseling , grief counseling ! that bitch is trying to tell me what to do with my kid . do you know it took everything in me not to physically throw her out of my building . jason : i kind of wish you had . carly : do you mean that ? jason : nah , i mean , it would cause more problems than it solved . she would have ran to jax and sonny would have came down on you . but you know what , it 's good to see you like this , even though you 're a little mad . carly : i 'm mad ; i 'm mad enough to rip her hair out of her head and go have sex with sonny , just because i can . [ scene_break ] kate : mr. corinthos , it 's always a pleasure to see you , but you have no idea how busy my day is today . kate : oh , my day just improved considerably . sonny : let 's go to the island . [ chuckles ] sonny : you will love the cabana , and we 'll gamble , we 'll do all kinds of things , we 'll make love on the beach . kate : i 've been waiting for my invitation , what 's your time frame ? sonny : now , today . [ scene_break ] carly : i know that having sex with sonny would n't , you know , fix anything . i 'm happy with jax . i want to be happy someday . you know , it 's good to have goals , right , jason ? jason : yeah , yeah , it is . carly : you know , i just miss michael all the time . and as horrible as it is to say , i am tired of hurting and i am tired of feeling empty . it 's easier to fight with sonny ; it 's easier to blow my life apart because that 's familiar . i know how to do that . jason : so it 's easier to hurt yourself ? carly : yeah , because then i 'm responsible for the pain . it does n't come from a phone call telling me that my little boy is shot and his life is basically over . sleeping with sonny has familiar results . yeah , we 'll blame each other , and the accusations will go back and forth on who wanted who first . but kate 's heart would be stepped on and hopefully she 'd be gone . that would be an added bonus . jax would be devastated , but , you know , he 'd have the excuse he needs to leave and sonny and i would be back to where we know . jason : the problem is i just took over this business to keep you and the kids away from sonny . so if you 're having second thoughts , you need to tell me right now . [ scene_break ] jax : i 'm delighted to have you with us . spinelli : uh , greetings , white knight , ruthless corporate raider . uh , and deepest thanks , for now the truth has been revealed . jax : excuse me ? spinelli : my real and true teacher was standing before me all along . jax : what teacher ? spinelli : now i know what makes the feminine heart race and flutter . it 's no mystery -- it 's you , jasper jacks , the epitome of all that is smooth , charming , and debonair . and i want to be just like you . [ scene_break ] carly : sex with sonny and getting back together with him are two totally different things . one 's a possibility , the other will never happen . jason : why ? carly : because michael is in a permanent coma because i could n't stay away from sonny . i mean , after i married jax , i was still caught up in sonny 's life , and michael 's paid the price for it . jason : it 's a lot more complicated than that , carly . carly : i know . i know that , you know , i know that we 've all made mistakes and we 've all made choices -- stupid , selfish , arrogant choices . assuming that we could keep michael safe , assuming that the craziness and the fighting would n't get to him , and we were wrong . so the only thing i can change from now on is how -- how i handle things in the future . jason : that 's exactly right . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : hey . patrick : hey . elizabeth : i do n't mean to interfere . patrick : but ? elizabeth : but clearly you are not thinking straight . patrick : well , i 'm sure you 're going to tell me what i 'm not thinking straight about . elizabeth : do you have any idea how many parents are out there who would kill to be with their children ? men and women being shipped off to war , parents losing custody , and then there 's you . patrick : i know . elizabeth : you 're letting your fear win . your fear of commitment , your fear of settling down , your fear of responsibility . patrick : maybe that 's not true , elizabeth , maybe i 'm just genuinely not ready to be a father . either way , i 'm giving robin what she wants , but she wo n't let me close . elizabeth : then figure it out , because you are giving up the opportunity , the privilege , to raise your child with the woman you love . i know men who would pay any price to have what you are throwing away . patrick : robin is determined to do this on her own . elizabeth : it does n't mean she wants to , it does n't mean she has to . [ scene_break ] carly : do you realize you just talked me out of having sex with sonny ? jason : no , i did n't . carly : well , fine , you got me to talk myself out of it , which i suppose is more effective . i know that it is better for morgan and me to stay away from sonny , i know that . and i know i should let him live in his fantasy world with kate , but god , i 'd like to make her pay and just stick it in her face . i almost feel sorry for him , when i 'm not furious with him . jason : maybe sonny has to get through this any way he can . we all do . [ scene_break ] jax : there 's no skill involved . i enjoy the company of women , that 's all . spinelli : yes , as do i , but my ardor is rarely returned . and when it is , as in the case with wise georgie , i am too blind to see what 's right in front of me . but you , you 're an artist , you 're refined and highly skilled . jax : no , there 's no skill involved . spinelli : look , have you ever -- have you ever battled in the face of the one you love ? have you ever thought you were making progress with a fair lady only to realize that she is a courtesan or a sister of sappho ? have you ever made a bold and fearless move , only to be accused of despoiling not a well experienced maiden but a sample of haute couture ? jax : no , not -- i do n't think so . look , spinelli , if you just be yourself -- spinelli : no , no , myself is n't good enough . but my heart wo n't give up , it wo n't understand why everyone else can have love except i , the jackal . jax : are you in love with anyone in particular ? spinelli : indeed , but she ca n't see it . even though i would make any sacrifice to be with her , i would gladly change any part of my life to win her favor . if i could just , if i could just transform to be the kind of man that she desires , i would -- i would willingly give up all that i am to become who she wants me to be . jax : all right , all right , i 'll help . spinelli : huzzah . jax : okay , do n't use that word . spinelli : oh . jax : okay , and another thing you need to know -- above all else , love 's a gamble .

[ scene_break ] carly : sex with sonny and getting back together with him are two totally different things . one 's a possibility , the other will never happen . jason : why ? carly : because michael is in a permanent coma because i could n't stay away from sonny . i mean , after i married jax , i was still caught up in sonny 's life , and michael 's paid the price for it . jason : it 's a lot more complicated than that , carly . carly : i know . i know that , you know , i know that we 've all made mistakes and we 've all made choices -- stupid , selfish , arrogant choices . assuming that we could keep michael safe , assuming that the craziness and the fighting would n't get to him , and we were wrong . so the only thing i can change from now on is how -- how i handle things in the future . jason : that 's exactly right . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : hey . patrick : hey . elizabeth : i do n't mean to interfere . patrick : but ? elizabeth : but clearly you are not thinking straight . patrick : well , i 'm sure you 're going to tell me what i 'm not thinking straight about . elizabeth : do you have any idea how many parents are out there who would kill to be with their children ? men and women being shipped off to war , parents losing custody , and then there 's you . patrick : i know . elizabeth : you 're letting your fear win . your fear of commitment , your fear of settling down , your fear of responsibility . patrick : maybe that 's not true , elizabeth , maybe i 'm just genuinely not ready to be a father . either way , i 'm giving robin what she wants , but she wo n't let me close . elizabeth : then figure it out , because you are giving up the opportunity , the privilege , to raise your child with the woman you love . i know men who would pay any price to have what you are throwing away . patrick : robin is determined to do this on her own . elizabeth : it does n't mean she wants to , it does n't mean she has to .

abby : ben , kelly , um ... she does n't need a - a counselor or a lawyer . not anymore . stitch : jack killed my sister ? victoria : well , it 's true . newman will be in free fall . and this scandal coming so soon after paragon -- someone will have to take the reins . billy : and that someone is you . there 's nobody else to do the job . victoria : adam could do it . i know he walked away from the company . he walked away from everything . but once he hears that dad 's in trouble , he 'll swoop back in . billy : you can take adam with one hand tied behind your back . victoria : [ chuckles ] i think you 're a little biased , but i do appreciate you being in my corner . billy : this is not being biased . i know what you 're capable of . newman enterprises deserves you . and think about it this way . with you heading newman , there 'll be no more battle with jabot . we can work together to create a peaceful genoa city . victoria : since when did you become so optimistic ? billy : when i woke up in that hospital bed after my nap . when you said that i could come home to you and the kids . since then , it 's been sunshine and puppy dogs . natalie : so , are we working , or what ? what 's our next move ? victoria : natalie . we can discuss this in the office . now is not a good time . natalie : what ? oh . you thought i meant you . i was talking to my new boss , him . hilary : we need to be strategic , devon . this is about keeping momentum . devon : [ sighs ] dr. neville : oh , i , um -- i 'm going to step out to grab a little food . you know , if you have something that would camouflage mustard , i think i -- just forego the hot dog . hilary : wonderful . now i 'm the company joke . ha , ha , ha . devon : you know that 's not true , babe . but you ca n't just expect ashley to start taking orders from you . hilary : well , maybe not , but she would take them from you if you backed me up every once in a while . devon : honey ... come on . we 're -- we 're all on the same team here . we really are . you just -- you have to figure out a way to finesse things . hilary : [ sighs ] devon : meet ashley halfway and just smooth this all out . that 's all you got to do . hilary : you 're right . yeah . plus , finesse -- that 's my thing . [ both chuckle ] hilary : thank you . catch you later , okay ? devon : of course , honey . see you soon . hilary : [ sighs ] ashley : you do n't have the right to be making these kind of decisions . do you understand that ? and , devon , you should 've called me , and then we could 've talked about this instead of just handing my job over to her . i -- devon : nobody 's handing your job over to anyone , ashley . in fact , i thought that you would appreciate having the extra help . ashley : [ scoffs ] does n't feel like help . it feels like an ambush . hilary : seriously ? [ chuckles ] phyllis : this is unbelievable . he did it . he even found a way to make it even worse , to let you think that those men died . did jack tell you that he wanted to come forward for months ? but he stayed silent because of me . it is now time to make victor pay . we add this to the list of charges . now , are we talking fraud ? are we talking witness tampering ? christine : we will charge victor with whatever we can , but it is victor . he 's covered his tracks . he 's made contingency plans . phyllis : oh , for the love of god , do your job , christine , and nail victor to the wall . michael : phyllis , the ship 's crew is not under the da 's jurisdiction . local charges are -- what victor did to you , what victor did to jack . phyllis : okay , i hope that my part in this is not a priority to you in any way . christine : justice is my priority , and i already said it . i will get victor to answer to his crime . phyllis : is this not where the state comes in and brings in special prosecution ? we do need that . jack : wait , wait , wait , wait . christine is up to the job . she will not let victor go free . it is n't gon na happen overnight , though . michael : jack 's right . it 's a complicated case . it 's gon na take time . phyllis : well , i hope it does n't take too long . jack : did you have to run the gauntlet downstairs just to get up here ? phyllis : look , it 's not just the reporters . stitch is down there . and by the way abby is acting , i 'm not so sure what he knows . michael : no , no . as your attorney , i beg of you . you do not talk to dr. rayburn . jack : stitch deserves to hear what happened to his sister . he needs to hear it from me and say what he wants to my face . i owe kelly that much . stitch : my sister was murdered . so , those -- those ashes , those pictures from the morgue , she faked all that ? abby : apparently . ben , i am so sorry that you went through that , and that you 're going through this . stitch : where 's she even buried ? does anyone know ? does anyone care ? because that 's -- that 's what kelly needed . she needed care , help , and attention , not a death sentence . abby : it 's not what anyone wanted . jack would never -- stitch : okay , but he did . he killed her . he broke her heart , broke her spirit , and then he killed her . this is all on jack , from start to finish . he pushed her over the edge , and then he punished her . kevin : maybe you do n't know the history behind this internet security project . and i hate to brag , but i 'm the one who discovered natalie . i 'm the reason she 's in genoa city . mariah : that 's a terrible brag , by the way . kevin : my point is , we 're not gon na take a buyout on a deal that i helped create . mariah : we are n't ? kevin : of course not . mariah : but -- exactly how much money are we talking about here ? because at this point , hand to god , real money sounds a lot better than pretend money that we keep not getting . luca : yeah , you should listen to mariah . she 's a smart woman . let 's talk numbers . kevin : no . do n't . mariah : why ? what can it hurt ? kevin : better to not know , because regardless , our answer is a firm no , thanks . mariah : kevin -- kevin : no , thanks . luca : sure about that ? does billy even know about you two being in on this ? because as mariah noted , natalie 's not so great at communicating . kevin : i 'm the one who tried to bring billy in in the first place . luca : and then you went to victor and handed him the deal . kevin : okay , yeah . that happened . but why exactly did billy go to you ? i do n't know what you bring to the table , other than a flip - off to victor -- which is fun and all , but i do n't see how it helps the bottom line . luca : billy brought me in because we understand each other . he appreciates my ... contributions . kevin : [ scoffs ] what is that -- code for blackmail ? luca : not at all . billy and i are just two colleagues who work well together , all above - board and on the record , whereas you two -- you have some sort of secret , back - room deal in the shadows . maybe you like it that way , but if you want to talk numbers and a buy - out -- kevin : no . no numbers . luca : then i 'll have to find another way to , uh , limit those on the inner circle . kevin : oh , you gon na try and push us out ? mariah : please do n't say `` bring it . `` kevin : i 'm not gon na say that , but if you want a fight , you 've got one . do your worst . michael : the press is going berserk over this case . they 're gon na be in jack 's face , in phyllis ' , and in yours . christine : okay , yeah . the scrutiny will be intense . but i have gone up against victor before . michael : no . no . you have never been involved in anything as sordid or salacious as this case is gon na be . and you know victor 's tricks , the outsiders he 's going to try to involve -- judges , politicians . christine : i wo n't let him . i will take him down . michael : you were n't that straight with phyllis . christine : [ sighs ] i do n't have to defend myself to her . michael : no . no , you do n't . but phyllis is important to me . and think about it . think about what she went through . victor has to pay for this . christine : are you doubting me ? michael : no . you 're a fighter . and you 're gon na need to fight . this crime changed lives . this case will change others . just ... be prepared for anything . stitch : was n't it enough that you broke my sister 's heart ? you killed her . jack : an apology will not bring your sister back , but i am very sorry . i never meant to hurt kelly . the world had already hurt her too much . stitch : yeah , that 's right . she lost her son , and then she met you . and you -- you made her think that life would get better . but instead , she 's dead because of you . so , how did it happen ? what 'd you do to her , jack ? jack : i ca n't tell you that . stitch : you damn well better . phyllis : you stop it right now . stitch : [ breathing heavily ] phyllis : listen to me . he does n't know . kelly had him tied up and drugged most of the time . she withheld water from him . and she told him that i was dead . he did not know what was real and what was n't . stitch : my sister was real . she was real until you killed her . abby : ben , come on . this is n't helping anyone . phyllis : did abby tell you how kelly managed all of this ? or did she conveniently leave that part out ? did you think about who put this all into motion ? victor handed jack to kelly and put marco in his place . your father- in - law gave kelly the man of her dreams and a cabin to torture him in . abby , did you leave that part out ? jack : leave abby out of this . this is not abby 's fault . phyllis : he does n't remember how kelly died because she drugged him , even though she knew how hard it was for him to get clean . he woke up and found kelly dead . i mean , for all we know , victor killed her ... jack : whoa , wait . phyllis : ... just to set him up . you do n't know that . jack : it does n't make sense . look . i escaped because kelly could n't stop me . victor would n't have wanted that . his plan was that i never come back to this town , that marco stay in my place as long as he wanted . the important thing right now is that i tell you how sorry i am . your sister deserved love . she deserved understanding . she deserved a lot more than she got . i am terribly sorry . abby : ben , come on . come on . let me drive you home . stitch : i 'm due back at the hospital , okay ? abby : call in . let someone cover for you . stitch : i have a damn job , and i 'm gon na go do it . abby : ben . ben ! [ sighs ] hilary : hey . ashley : [ gasps ] hilary : hey ! ashley : [ sighs ] what -- what ? hilary : what is wrong with you ? why are you sleeping ? ashley : [ sighs ] i had a late night . i got to get to the lab . hilary : you 're in the lab . dr. neville just went to get some food . ashley : i meant that i have to get to work . could you please leave my office ? hilary : why ? you afraid i 'll find these ? ashley : why would i be afraid of you finding those ? i 've been ... having some headaches . i 'm just taking some medication . hilary : oh . headaches . [ chuckles ] please . you 're not just the boss here , are you ? you 're a patient . ashley : look , hilary . um ... i really do n't want my family to know what 's going on with me , so it would be lovely if we could keep this just between us , please ? hilary : yeah , of course . this -- it 's your personal business . i wo n't tell a soul . ashley : thank you . thank you so much . i owe you . hilary : yes . you do . that 's why you 'll agree to step down and let me take over the company . hilary : how sick are you ? sick enough that you 're too scared to tell anyone . you 're taking experimental drugs that the fda has n't even approved . how much longer before someone else find you passed out at your desk ? truth is , you should 've stepped down a long time ago . your ego clouded your judgment . ashley : oh , my ego ? what about your ego , hilary ? you were my brother 's assistant a year ago . you really think that you 've got what it takes to run a multimillion - dollar startup ? you do n't . hilary : i am just trying to help you and this company through a difficult time . ashley : you 're trying to blackmail me into stepping down , and you know it . and you 're disgusting . dr. neville saved your life , hilary . hilary : yes , he did . and after being helpless for months , i 'm not gon na waste another minute . i am smart , i am strong , and i am healthy . and i am ready and capable of doing the job that you ca n't . accept it . ashley : oh , the hell i will . hilary : well , then , i guess your privacy does n't mean as much to you as your pride . dr. neville : okay , so , chocolate and nuts , otherwise known as brain ... food . devon : [ sighs ] dr. neville : yes , u - um ... i - i suppose you should excuse us so we can get back to work . devon : yeah . is everything okay ? did you guys get a chance to cool off ? hilary : yeah , everything 's great . me and ashley , we came to a new understanding . victoria : billy is your boss . exactly how do you figure that ? natalie : victor fired me . jabot hired me . luca made it sound like it was public knowledge . victoria : luca ? billy : this is a conversation that i was planning to have with you at home . victoria : how did this happen , billy ? natalie : billy was supposed to be the original investor , right ? now he 's back in the game . billy : you know what ? victoria : yeah , sure . that 's billy -- always back in the game . billy : [ clears throat ] natalie , this is n't jabot , so why do n't you run along , and i 'll get in contact with you later ? natalie : why ? you 're here . i 'm here . got my gear . billy : this is n't a good time . natalie : oh . this is an awkward situation , is n't it ? billy : it could be . natalie : it 's hard to tell . it does n't feel any more or less awkward than 85 % to 90 % of my daily interactions , but -- billy : it 's not getting any less awkward the more you talk about it . natalie : maybe i should go . billy : that 's what i 'm saying . i 'll talk to you later . thank you for everything . [ chuckles ] i mean , lucky she 's a computer whiz , because she 'd be hopeless if not . victoria : you stole a newman project . billy : no . victoria : she 's working for you . billy : it 's not a newman project . victor fired her . victoria : so you just swooped in , and you brought it to jabot . billy : if i saw victor throw a billion dollars in a trash can , i 'm not gon na just walk away . victoria : something 's wrong with this . why would my father throw away a billion dollars ? billy : well , maybe he 's distracted because he 's gon na spend the next 10 years in prison . [ sighs ] look , am i supposed to be more sympathetic to his plight ? yeah , maybe . but he snaked this deal while i was n't exactly in fighting shape . so to use a phrase that he likes to throw around , it 's just business . stitch : the vitals on this chart have n't been updated . is anyone doing their job today ? take care of this . abby : hey . stitch : abby . max , what are you -- what are you doing here ? abby : we got a call to pick up max from school . um , there was another fight . stitch : another fight ? oh , come on . what is wrong with you ? jack : hey , i 'm sorry . i should 've been with you when you talked to the police , when you told them everything . phyllis : billy was with me . i - i got through it . jack : you should not have had to go through what you went through . nobody should . just gives me one more reason to loathe victor . phyllis : this is only gon na get worse , jack . i mean , the press is n't gon na stop . the strangers on the street -- jack : i 'll be with you the whole way . now that i 'm not facing charges , i 'll be with you every second . how can you get a conviction against victor newman when you could n't get time for his son ? christine : i have no comment on the case at this time . thank you . phyllis : come on , christine . you can do better than that . why do n't you tell them how you 're gon na bring victor down ? luca : i do n't want a fight . there 's no need for that . we would n't want anyone to get hurt . mariah : he means us . he means we could get hurt . i hate that guy and his hair . michael : what guy ? what hair ? oh . luca . kevin : hey , so , about victor . is he doing time -- like , actual , real time for once ? mariah : or is he gon na bribe his way out , come back breathing fire , and destroy anyone and everyone who 's ever thought about betraying him ? michael : huh . okay . if you have done anything to victor and are worried that it and him will come back to bite you in the butt , i can not soothe your fears . kevin : that 's great . thanks . just what we wanted to hear . michael : he 's victor . it appears he 's lost the people he can usually count on . he 's alone , feeling misunderstood -- victor against the world . that could break him , or ... it could rouse him to whole new levels of megalomania . billy : hey , you know that i 've wanted this internet security project from the beginning . victoria : you said you got over it . billy : well , then it went back on the market . jabot needs a product that can generate substantial return , especially after just handing newman $ 500 million . victoria : i 'm not engaged to jabot . i 'm engaged to you , and you did n't mention a word of this to me . billy : [ sighs ] victor fired natalie , okay ? the opportunity was there , so we took it . did it come at an interesting time or a crazy time with your dad being arrested ? yes , but this is not an act of vengeance . victoria : no , you 're right . it 's a very smart business move . it 's rational , and it 's productive . billy : and i 'm the epitome of rational . victoria : [ sighs ] billy : everybody says so . victoria : no . besides , i do n't think i could 've lured natalie back . i have n't exactly been easy on her . billy : look , jabot has no plans to exploit newman , all right ? i mean it . i want our companies to be okay . i want us to be okay . victoria : okay . maybe with your strength and with our connections , we can finally bring the newmans and the abbotts together . christine : actually , i do have a comment . victor newman stands accused of heinous crimes . he has corrupted personal and business relationships in the most despicable way possible , and the state will not back down . no amount of money or pull will save victor from his conviction , and i will get justice for all his victims , including ms . abbott . satisfied ? phyllis : all right , take it outside . i 'm not gon na add one more word to that . go . jack : you heard her . let 's go . go . is that what you wanted -- to take on the d.a . in front of the press ? phyllis : well , they went after her for good reason . when was the last time christine did her job properly ? she says that she wants justice , but she is gon na sigh and whine and flounce , and victor is gon na get off . jack : that is not going to happen . phyllis : i just -- i need to think of a way to make sure he does not walk . i want him to suffer . jack : and how do you gauge that -- his suffering , i mean ? when is it enough ? phyllis : i will know it when i feel it . jack : you got to stop this , honey . it 's gon na take you under . phyllis : i have been under before . i am the woman who had sex with a man who was not her husband . i know that . you know that . everybody knows that . and if you do n't think victor should suffer for that , then once again , i do n't know you at all . stitch : is this who you are , the kid who gets sent home for fighting ? max : but , dad -- stitch : `` but , dad `` nothing . do you know how much i have on my plate right now ? do you think i have any time to deal with this ? abby : ben , the other kid was just as much to blame -- stitch : the other kid is n't my son . you are . you 're a part of this family , so get it together . stop making my life harder than it already is ! [ sighs ] max . devon : would you care to explain to me this new understanding ? hilary : well , yeah . it 's -- it 's really good . ashley , would you like to do the honors ? ashley : of course . i 'm stepping down . and i would like hilary to take over for me . [ next_on ] stitch : why are the cops involved ? dylan : the teacher is obligated to report it if she suspects a child is being mistreated at home . nick : it 's okay if you want to look . marisa : how can you keep me out of jail ? noah : we 'll just have to get married . | at the coffeehouse , luca tries to strike up a deal with kevin and mariah concerning natalie and her software . victoria feels guilty that she betrayed her own father , but billy assures her that she did what had to be done . christine tells jack and michael that there were no casualties in the boating accident . christine reminds jack that kelly held him hostage so this will be considered self defense . michael tells jack that he is free and clear . downstairs in the dining room at the athletic club , abby lets stitch know what has been going on concerning jack and kelly and how she held him hostage while marco pretended to be jack . stitch becomes angry and tells abby that jack used kelly and then murdered her . | <s>[INST] abby : how could we not know ? how could we all be fooled into thinking that marco was uncle jack ? victoria : what about kelly ? how is ben handling that part ? abby : he does n't know yet . or at least he has n't heard from me . he 's been at the hospital all night , and kelly 's role in this has n't hit the news yet . victoria : it 's gon na kill him . abby : or it 'll make him kill someone else . um ... hey , i have to go . ben 's here . victoria : tell him , uh ... i do n't know . tell him we 're all so sorry . abby : thank you . hey . stitch : hi , baby . how you doing ? abby : hi . stitch : [ sighs ] made it home in time to take max to school . now i 'm all yours . how you holding up with all the press ? abby : uh , i 'm not worried about them at the moment . phyllis : okay , leave me alone . i do not have a comment . mrs. abbott , care to explain how you could not know the man in your bed was n't your husband ? jack : kelly had told me that phyllis was dead . i knew it was a lie . i do n't know how i knew , but i knew , and i had to get back . listen , the -- the ship , the explosion , that was self - defense . kelly -- [ sighs ] it 's hazy . i told you . i was heavily drugged and starving . when i say i do n't remember , i do n't . i swear . christine : okay . michael : `` okay `` ? that 's it ? christine : there are a lot of moving parts . i just -- i need a second to try and -- jack : i 'm not sure i have a second . i -- i need to know now , christine . am i going to prison for this ? hilary : oh , good . you 're here . dr. neville : it 's my lab . i 'm always here . it 's kind of a thing . hilary : okay , well , take a break . um , i have a few looks i want you to try out . dr. neville : i 'm kind of stuck with this one . i mean , my eyebrows grow this way . if your objective is variety , i 'm gon na have to cook up some more gin . hilary : uh , i meant these looks . uh , they 're for the photo shoot . i just -- i felt like your wardrobe needed a little punch . dr. neville : ah , yes , i see . exactly what all patients look for in their specialist -- punch . uh , d - do n't take this the wrong way , mrs. hamilton . i 'm sure i appreciate your suggestions , but i 'd rather just , uh , continue with my work . hilary : well , this is part of your job , too . so come on . just , you know , try them on . we 'll do a little fashion show , and then i 'll make my selections . quick . dr. neville : a little fashion show ? ashley : i spoke to our vendors . dr. neville : it 's a laboratory . ashley : i think i finally got it straight . devon : fantastic . ashley : yeah . hi . devon : hey , guys . ashley : hello . devon : what 's happening ? dr. neville : well , apparently , my aspect requires punch or something . hilary : i just wanted simon to look as distinguished and professional as possible for the photo shoot . ashley : please . dr. neville 's a scientist . he 's not a show pony . we have a lot of work to do . uh , maybe you should ... maybe you should go . mariah : so , you 're fired . natalie : mm - hmm . mariah : that 's awesome ? natalie : it 's the best thing that 's happened to me lately , and to you . kevin : so it 's true -- you have a new , legit partner , someone with serious cash flow who 's gon na let mariah and me back into the inner circle ? mariah : oh , is that what 's happening ? i ca n't keep track . i have whiplash . we 're in . we 're out . we 're in . kevin : okay . is it really happening ? are we officially in ? natalie : i told you we 're in this together . i mean what i say . mariah : no . technically , you do n't , ever . you lie all the time . natalie : i have n't been lying to you . it 's just been a fluid situation . but i told you , you believed in me first . you 're in , you and miss happy pants . kevin : cool . let 's hope your new mystery partner does n't have a problem with that . mariah : and since we 're being all open and honest ... who is it , already ? who 's the new partner ? luca : there 's our genius . natalie : [ sighs ] kevin : oh , hell no . billy : newman security deserves hazard pay for dealing with those reporters down there . victoria : please tell me you did n't say anything to any of them , billy . billy : you mean stand on the stairs and gloat that victor is in prison ? no , did n't even think about it , barely . victoria : swear to me that you did n't . billy : i wo n't . i do n't think i will , anyway . victoria : [ sighs ] i did this . i did this to my father , and i did this to the company . billy : hey . victor did this , to my brother , to his wife . there 's only one person responsible for this , victoria , and that is one victor newman . victoria : i gave the police evidence to have him arrested . billy : morally , ethically , legally , the right thing to do . victoria : yeah . but what if he beats the charges , and he makes his way back here ? there 's gon na be hell to pay . hilary : well , this will just take a few minutes , and it 's for the good of the company . ashley : well , as the head of the company , i 'd like to make that decision , actually . and we have to get back to work , without any distractions , so ... hilary : this is n't a distraction . this is part of our mission -- to make sure the medical community is as invested in neville as we are . ashley : maybe you could figure out a way to do that without slowing down our research . how about that ? why do n't you go and come back to me when you 've actually got a plan ? devon : all right . maybe this is n't the time to do this . hilary : then when is a good time ? dr. neville : if it comes down to my sense of fashion , `` never `` works for me . hilary : is that because you 're that busy , or you just -- you do n't like dressing up ? dr. neville : i -- [ sighs ] i clean up as nicely as the next person . i just -- for now , i 'm sorry . i truly am that busy . hilary : so , all you do is research , 24/7 . no eating , sleeping , living ? i mean , god -- i hope she lets you take a bathroom break . ashley : what is this photo shoot for , anyway ? who authorized it ? hilary : i 'm in charge of p.r . , thank you . devon : maybe we should discuss what you have planned . hilary : why do i have to bother you with all these small details ? you have more important things to handle . ashley : and so do we . hilary : why is this suddenly an issue ? this is still a business , right ? we have to look after research and development and possible marketing . ashley : yes , eventually , but not now . hilary : why not now ? you know , ashley , i understand if you 're a little preoccupied with your ex - husband and that whole situation -- ashley : my personal life has nothing to do with your overstepping . dr. neville : if you 'll excuse me , i - i would like to -- [ chuckles ] i think i should discuss this with my colleague , uh , in private . devon : sure . dr. neville : please ? hilary : [ sighs ] that woman is impossible . ashley : that woman is impossible . dr. neville : listen to me . mrs. hamilton is not our problem at the moment . ashley : this is so depressing . when did i come to this ? a man is more interested in taking my pulse than holding my hand . dr. neville : your heart rate 's elevated . if you ca n't calm down , you 'll pass out . we ca n't afford that . if mrs. hamilton is so determined to turn me into the world 's first centerfold for the journal of medicine and machismo , i 'll gladly take one for the team . ashley : you 're so ridiculous . you do know that , do n't you ? dr. neville : yeah , i know . i got the memo . but you are smiling . and that 's something . phyllis : you want a sound bite ? how about go to hell ? stitch : okay , beat it , all of you , all right ? this is a private club . you 're not welcome . come on . get out of here . beat it . scram . abby : come on . sit down . forget about them . forget about everyone . stitch : hey . hey . you need some water ? phyllis : how about some meds ? that 'd be real good right about now . thank you for dealing with them . stitch : they are predators , okay ? they have no right going after you and jack like that . i mean , you two are the innocent parties in all this . phyllis : thank you . i did n't know what to expect from you , considering -- abby : oh , phyllis , um , you know what ? there 's a security guard right over there . you might want to tell him what just happened . they can take care of the reporters . phyllis : okay . yes . i will do that . abby : [ sighs ] this is horrible . i feel for phyllis and everyone who suffered through this horrible nightmare . stitch : then why 'd you send her off ? what was phyllis about to say that you do n't want me to know ? christine : jack , i ca n't make you any promises . i 'm waiting to hear if there are any charges in place in those locations , but the reality is , you could be facing extradition . michael : we 're aware of that . jack : but it 's a waiting game . look , i - i 'd like to spend some time with my wife . clearly , we have to savor the time we have . christine : yeah , of course . jack : thank you for agreeing to meet me here and not at the station . this media frenzy 's kind of overwhelming . michael : i appreciate it , too , christine . clearly , my client is emotionally drained from his ordeal . jack : but the truth is , talking about it is ... chris , i never meant to hurt anyone , much less kill anyone . you have to believe me . i swear . it 's been eating me up . and -- [ sighs ] maybe now i can find some way to make amends . michael : obviously , his remorse is substantial . it is something to consider when communicating with foreign authorities . [ cell phone buzzes ] christine : hold on . it 's about the boat explosion . hello ? michael : no more statements , okay ? you leave the talking to me . jack : i can not leave my wife again . she will not go through this alone . michael : then keep quiet . christine : okay . yeah , thank you . thank you so much . you are not gon na believe this . luca : so , you heard the good news about me and natalie teaming up . kevin : somehow , your name did n't come up , at all . natalie : i was getting there . mariah : building to the big finish . very nice . kevin : this is some move , bringing on the guy that victor did n't want at newman . mariah : i mean , that 's one way to stick it to victor . natalie : it was billy 's idea . he brought luca into the loop . luca : he 's a clever businessman , very shrewd , with a lot of passion . i can relate . kevin : okay . there it is . makes sense . you 're a walking `` screw you `` to victor . [ inhales deeply ] all right . we do n't have a problem with that . luca : wait . you have an agreement with natalie , as well ? kevin : yes , a long - standing , pre - existing agreement . mariah : it 's ironclad , written in blood , so do n't even think of trying to get out of it . kevin : you do n't have a problem with that , do you , partner ? natalie : ah , well , talking 's great and all , but i got somewhere to be . mariah : that girl -- mad people skills . luca : what 's it gon na take to buy you two out ? kevin : [ laughs ] billy : victor may think he 's a god , but right this second , he 's just a guy in a cell . he 's not gon na be able to bribe or blackmail his way out of this . you 're safe . victoria : this is not what safety feels like . billy : come on . honey , he 's not gon na come back here and tear you apart . victoria : i 'm really not worried about him tearing me apart , because i 'm tearing myself apart . i know what i did . i gave paul that evidence . billy : right . you gave evidence of a serious crime to the head cop in charge . you did the right thing . victoria : it was a betrayal . billy : come on . do n't do that . that 's just victor crawling into your head . victoria : i hurt him . i hurt my father . billy : well , he can take it . victoria : can he really ? billy : you go from being scared that daddy 's mad to wanting to protect him . do n't forget that he did this . he put you and everybody in your family into this position , all right ? there is one positive that 's gon na come out of this , though . victoria : what ? billy : [ sighs ] newman enterprises is all yours . it 's your time to shine . you can take newman to a fierce , profitable , decent company . yours for the taking , kid . christine : the ship you blew up ? jack : did they tell you how many casualties there were ? christine : as a matter of fact , they did . zero . jack : zero ? h - how is that possible ? there were a lot of people on that ship . michael : paul himself was told the captain was dead . christine : i understand that , but the most recent death count is zero . michael : how is that possible ? jack : w - wait . somebody may have swum to safety . i read the reports myself , though . michael : how can they all suddenly be alive and accounted for ? christine : listen , a crewman came forward , and he said that a rich american paid everyone to stay in hiding . so , jack , whatever you read , whatever the authorities believed , it was all a lie . the deaths never happened . jack : that son of a -- victor arranged all of this to keep me quiet . he held these deaths over my head to keep me quiet . michael : jack , jack , the crew is alive . there were no deaths . i assume there are no extradition orders regarding the explosion . christine : no , the boat was filled with drugs . they 're not gon na come after jack for blowing it up . jack : and what about kelly ? she 's still a victim , my victim . christine : so , are you suddenly remembering her death ? jack : no . christine : but you say that she held you captive . jack : yes , absolutely . christine : well , then it sounds like you 're the victim . uh , jack , i need to go over this some more , but at this point , i would say self - defense . michael : absolutely . jack : so no charges on the explosion , and no charges regarding kelly . michael : looks like you remain free and clear , jack . abby : the things that you 've heard about my family , about my dad and about uncle jack ... there 's more , and it 's gon na be hard for you to hear . stitch : i 'm sure , and i 'm so sorry . i -- listen . i hate that your family is so torn . abby : no , it 's -- it 's about your family , too . stitch : my family ? abby : kelly . stitch : my sister ? what about her ? abby : ben , um ... kelly kidnapped jack while he was on his honeymoon with phyllis . she was still in love with him . she wanted them to be together . she kidnapped jack so -- so marco could come here and take his place . stitch : okay , no , no , no , no . that -- that makes no sense . abby : i know it 's awful , but it happened , and ... i 'm sorry . stitch : she died . you know that . we -- we went to get her ashes . abby : i know . that 's what she wanted you to think . but she was alive . she was waiting to be with jack . she thought that they could be together . stitch : so she 's alive . okay . so then we -- we -- we -- we -- we get her some help . she needs help , okay ? we 'll get her some counseling , you know , some support . abby : no , she held jack captive for weeks . he tried to escape , but the local police , they would n't listen to him . stitch : a lawyer . she needs a lawyer . we 'll get her a lawyer . abby : kelly drugged jack . he just wanted to get home . he wanted to get home to phyllis . he did things that he -- he never wanted to do . stitch : what are you saying ? abby : ben , kelly , um ... she does n't need a - a counselor or a lawyer . not anymore . stitch : jack killed my sister ? victoria : well , it 's true . newman will be in free fall . and this scandal coming so soon after paragon -- someone will have to take the reins . billy : and that someone is you . there 's nobody else to do the job . victoria : adam could do it . i know he walked away from the company . he walked away from everything . but once he hears that dad 's in trouble , he 'll swoop back in . billy : you can take adam with one hand tied behind your back . victoria : [ chuckles ] i think you 're a little biased , but i do appreciate you being in my corner . billy : this is not being biased . i know what you 're capable of . newman enterprises deserves you . and think about it this way . with you heading newman , there 'll be no more battle with jabot . we can work together to create a peaceful genoa city . victoria : since when did you become so optimistic ? billy : when i woke up in that hospital bed after my nap . when you said that i could come home to you and the kids . since then , it 's been sunshine and puppy dogs . natalie : so , are we working , or what ? what 's our next move ? victoria : natalie . we can discuss this in the office . now is not a good time . natalie : what ? oh . you thought i meant you . i was talking to my new boss , him . hilary : we need to be strategic , devon . this is about keeping momentum . devon : [ sighs ] dr. neville : oh , i , um -- i 'm going to step out to grab a little food . you know , if you have something that would camouflage mustard , i think i -- just forego the hot dog . hilary : wonderful . now i 'm the company joke . ha , ha , ha . devon : you know that 's not true , babe . but you ca n't just expect ashley to start taking orders from you . hilary : well , maybe not , but she would take them from you if you backed me up every once in a while . devon : honey ... come on . we 're -- we 're all on the same team here . we really are . you just -- you have to figure out a way to finesse things . hilary : [ sighs ] devon : meet ashley halfway and just smooth this all out . that 's all you got to do . hilary : you 're right . yeah . plus , finesse -- that 's my thing . [ both chuckle ] hilary : thank you . catch you later , okay ? devon : of course , honey . see you soon . hilary : [ sighs ] ashley : you do n't have the right to be making these kind of decisions . do you understand that ? and , devon , you should 've called me , and then we could 've talked about this instead of just handing my job over to her . i -- devon : nobody 's handing your job over to anyone , ashley . in fact , i thought that you would appreciate having the extra help . ashley : [ scoffs ] does n't feel like help . it feels like an ambush . hilary : seriously ? [ chuckles ] phyllis : this is unbelievable . he did it . he even found a way to make it even worse , to let you think that those men died . did jack tell you that he wanted to come forward for months ? but he stayed silent because of me . it is now time to make victor pay . we add this to the list of charges . now , are we talking fraud ? are we talking witness tampering ? christine : we will charge victor with whatever we can , but it is victor . he 's covered his tracks . he 's made contingency plans . phyllis : oh , for the love of god , do your job , christine , and nail victor to the wall . michael : phyllis , the ship 's crew is not under the da 's jurisdiction . local charges are -- what victor did to you , what victor did to jack . phyllis : okay , i hope that my part in this is not a priority to you in any way . christine : justice is my priority , and i already said it . i will get victor to answer to his crime . phyllis : is this not where the state comes in and brings in special prosecution ? we do need that . jack : wait , wait , wait , wait . christine is up to the job . she will not let victor go free . it is n't gon na happen overnight , though . michael : jack 's right . it 's a complicated case . it 's gon na take time . phyllis : well , i hope it does n't take too long . jack : did you have to run the gauntlet downstairs just to get up here ? phyllis : look , it 's not just the reporters . stitch is down there . and by the way abby is acting , i 'm not so sure what he knows . michael : no , no . as your attorney , i beg of you . you do not talk to dr. rayburn . jack : stitch deserves to hear what happened to his sister . he needs to hear it from me and say what he wants to my face . i owe kelly that much . stitch : my sister was murdered . so , those -- those ashes , those pictures from the morgue , she faked all that ? abby : apparently . ben , i am so sorry that you went through that , and that you 're going through this . stitch : where 's she even buried ? does anyone know ? does anyone care ? because that 's -- that 's what kelly needed . she needed care , help , and attention , not a death sentence . abby : it 's not what anyone wanted . jack would never -- stitch : okay , but he did . he killed her . he broke her heart , broke her spirit , and then he killed her . this is all on jack , from start to finish . he pushed her over the edge , and then he punished her . kevin : maybe you do n't know the history behind this internet security project . and i hate to brag , but i 'm the one who discovered natalie . i 'm the reason she 's in genoa city . mariah : that 's a terrible brag , by the way . kevin : my point is , we 're not gon na take a buyout on a deal that i helped create . mariah : we are n't ? kevin : of course not . mariah : but -- exactly how much money are we talking about here ? because at this point , hand to god , real money sounds a lot better than pretend money that we keep not getting . luca : yeah , you should listen to mariah . she 's a smart woman . let 's talk numbers . kevin : no . do n't . mariah : why ? what can it hurt ? kevin : better to not know , because regardless , our answer is a firm no , thanks . mariah : kevin -- kevin : no , thanks . luca : sure about that ? does billy even know about you two being in on this ? because as mariah noted , natalie 's not so great at communicating . kevin : i 'm the one who tried to bring billy in in the first place . luca : and then you went to victor and handed him the deal . kevin : okay , yeah . that happened . but why exactly did billy go to you ? i do n't know what you bring to the table , other than a flip - off to victor -- which is fun and all , but i do n't see how it helps the bottom line . luca : billy brought me in because we understand each other . he appreciates my ... contributions . kevin : [ scoffs ] what is that -- code for blackmail ? luca : not at all . billy and i are just two colleagues who work well together , all above - board and on the record , whereas you two -- you have some sort of secret , back - room deal in the shadows . maybe you like it that way , but if you want to talk numbers and a buy - out -- kevin : no . no numbers . luca : then i 'll have to find another way to , uh , limit those on the inner circle . kevin : oh , you gon na try and push us out ? mariah : please do n't say `` bring it . `` kevin : i 'm not gon na say that , but if you want a fight , you 've got one . do your worst . michael : the press is going berserk over this case . they 're gon na be in jack 's face , in phyllis ' , and in yours . christine : okay , yeah . the scrutiny will be intense . but i have gone up against victor before . michael : no . no . you have never been involved in anything as sordid or salacious as this case is gon na be . and you know victor 's tricks , the outsiders he 's going to try to involve -- judges , politicians . christine : i wo n't let him . i will take him down . michael : you were n't that straight with phyllis . christine : [ sighs ] i do n't have to defend myself to her . michael : no . no , you do n't . but phyllis is important to me . and think about it . think about what she went through . victor has to pay for this . christine : are you doubting me ? michael : no . you 're a fighter . and you 're gon na need to fight . this crime changed lives . this case will change others . just ... be prepared for anything . stitch : was n't it enough that you broke my sister 's heart ? you killed her . jack : an apology will not bring your sister back , but i am very sorry . i never meant to hurt kelly . the world had already hurt her too much . stitch : yeah , that 's right . she lost her son , and then she met you . and you -- you made her think that life would get better . but instead , she 's dead because of you . so , how did it happen ? what 'd you do to her , jack ? jack : i ca n't tell you that . stitch : you damn well better . phyllis : you stop it right now . stitch : [ breathing heavily ] phyllis : listen to me . he does n't know . kelly had him tied up and drugged most of the time . she withheld water from him . and she told him that i was dead . he did not know what was real and what was n't . stitch : my sister was real . she was real until you killed her . abby : ben , come on . this is n't helping anyone . phyllis : did abby tell you how kelly managed all of this ? or did she conveniently leave that part out ? did you think about who put this all into motion ? victor handed jack to kelly and put marco in his place . your father- in - law gave kelly the man of her dreams and a cabin to torture him in . abby , did you leave that part out ? jack : leave abby out of this . this is not abby 's fault . phyllis : he does n't remember how kelly died because she drugged him , even though she knew how hard it was for him to get clean . he woke up and found kelly dead . i mean , for all we know , victor killed her ... jack : whoa , wait . phyllis : ... just to set him up . you do n't know that . jack : it does n't make sense . look . i escaped because kelly could n't stop me . victor would n't have wanted that . his plan was that i never come back to this town , that marco stay in my place as long as he wanted . the important thing right now is that i tell you how sorry i am . your sister deserved love . she deserved understanding . she deserved a lot more than she got . i am terribly sorry . abby : ben , come on . come on . let me drive you home . stitch : i 'm due back at the hospital , okay ? abby : call in . let someone cover for you . stitch : i have a damn job , and i 'm gon na go do it . abby : ben . ben ! [ sighs ] hilary : hey . ashley : [ gasps ] hilary : hey ! ashley : [ sighs ] what -- what ? hilary : what is wrong with you ? why are you sleeping ? ashley : [ sighs ] i had a late night . i got to get to the lab . hilary : you 're in the lab . dr. neville just went to get some food . ashley : i meant that i have to get to work . could you please leave my office ? hilary : why ? you afraid i 'll find these ? ashley : why would i be afraid of you finding those ? i 've been ... having some headaches . i 'm just taking some medication . hilary : oh . headaches . [ chuckles ] please . you 're not just the boss here , are you ? you 're a patient . ashley : look , hilary . um ... i really do n't want my family to know what 's going on with me , so it would be lovely if we could keep this just between us , please ? hilary : yeah , of course . this -- it 's your personal business . i wo n't tell a soul . ashley : thank you . thank you so much . i owe you . hilary : yes . you do . that 's why you 'll agree to step down and let me take over the company . hilary : how sick are you ? sick enough that you 're too scared to tell anyone . you 're taking experimental drugs that the fda has n't even approved . how much longer before someone else find you passed out at your desk ? truth is , you should 've stepped down a long time ago . your ego clouded your judgment . ashley : oh , my ego ? what about your ego , hilary ? you were my brother 's assistant a year ago . you really think that you 've got what it takes to run a multimillion - dollar startup ? you do n't . hilary : i am just trying to help you and this company through a difficult time . ashley : you 're trying to blackmail me into stepping down , and you know it . and you 're disgusting . dr. neville saved your life , hilary . hilary : yes , he did . and after being helpless for months , i 'm not gon na waste another minute . i am smart , i am strong , and i am healthy . and i am ready and capable of doing the job that you ca n't . accept it . ashley : oh , the hell i will . hilary : well , then , i guess your privacy does n't mean as much to you as your pride . dr. neville : okay , so , chocolate and nuts , otherwise known as brain ... food . devon : [ sighs ] dr. neville : yes , u - um ... i - i suppose you should excuse us so we can get back to work . devon : yeah . is everything okay ? did you guys get a chance to cool off ? hilary : yeah , everything 's great . me and ashley , we came to a new understanding . victoria : billy is your boss . exactly how do you figure that ? natalie : victor fired me . jabot hired me . luca made it sound like it was public knowledge . victoria : luca ? billy : this is a conversation that i was planning to have with you at home . victoria : how did this happen , billy ? natalie : billy was supposed to be the original investor , right ? now he 's back in the game . billy : you know what ? victoria : yeah , sure . that 's billy -- always back in the game . billy : [ clears throat ] natalie , this is n't jabot , so why do n't you run along , and i 'll get in contact with you later ? natalie : why ? you 're here . i 'm here . got my gear . billy : this is n't a good time . natalie : oh . this is an awkward situation , is n't it ? billy : it could be . natalie : it 's hard to tell . it does n't feel any more or less awkward than 85 % to 90 % of my daily interactions , but -- billy : it 's not getting any less awkward the more you talk about it . natalie : maybe i should go . billy : that 's what i 'm saying . i 'll talk to you later . thank you for everything . [ chuckles ] i mean , lucky she 's a computer whiz , because she 'd be hopeless if not . victoria : you stole a newman project . billy : no . victoria : she 's working for you . billy : it 's not a newman project . victor fired her . victoria : so you just swooped in , and you brought it to jabot . billy : if i saw victor throw a billion dollars in a trash can , i 'm not gon na just walk away . victoria : something 's wrong with this . why would my father throw away a billion dollars ? billy : well , maybe he 's distracted because he 's gon na spend the next 10 years in prison . [ sighs ] look , am i supposed to be more sympathetic to his plight ? yeah , maybe . but he snaked this deal while i was n't exactly in fighting shape . so to use a phrase that he likes to throw around , it 's just business . stitch : the vitals on this chart have n't been updated . is anyone doing their job today ? take care of this . abby : hey . stitch : abby . max , what are you -- what are you doing here ? abby : we got a call to pick up max from school . um , there was another fight . stitch : another fight ? oh , come on . what is wrong with you ? jack : hey , i 'm sorry . i should 've been with you when you talked to the police , when you told them everything . phyllis : billy was with me . i - i got through it . jack : you should not have had to go through what you went through . nobody should . just gives me one more reason to loathe victor . phyllis : this is only gon na get worse , jack . i mean , the press is n't gon na stop . the strangers on the street -- jack : i 'll be with you the whole way . now that i 'm not facing charges , i 'll be with you every second . how can you get a conviction against victor newman when you could n't get time for his son ? christine : i have no comment on the case at this time . thank you . phyllis : come on , christine . you can do better than that . why do n't you tell them how you 're gon na bring victor down ? luca : i do n't want a fight . there 's no need for that . we would n't want anyone to get hurt . mariah : he means us . he means we could get hurt . i hate that guy and his hair . michael : what guy ? what hair ? oh . luca . kevin : hey , so , about victor . is he doing time -- like , actual , real time for once ? mariah : or is he gon na bribe his way out , come back breathing fire , and destroy anyone and everyone who 's ever thought about betraying him ? michael : huh . okay . if you have done anything to victor and are worried that it and him will come back to bite you in the butt , i can not soothe your fears . kevin : that 's great . thanks . just what we wanted to hear . michael : he 's victor . it appears he 's lost the people he can usually count on . he 's alone , feeling misunderstood -- victor against the world . that could break him , or ... it could rouse him to whole new levels of megalomania . billy : hey , you know that i 've wanted this internet security project from the beginning . victoria : you said you got over it . billy : well , then it went back on the market . jabot needs a product that can generate substantial return , especially after just handing newman $ 500 million . victoria : i 'm not engaged to jabot . i 'm engaged to you , and you did n't mention a word of this to me . billy : [ sighs ] victor fired natalie , okay ? the opportunity was there , so we took it . did it come at an interesting time or a crazy time with your dad being arrested ? yes , but this is not an act of vengeance . victoria : no , you 're right . it 's a very smart business move . it 's rational , and it 's productive . billy : and i 'm the epitome of rational . victoria : [ sighs ] billy : everybody says so . victoria : no . besides , i do n't think i could 've lured natalie back . i have n't exactly been easy on her . billy : look , jabot has no plans to exploit newman , all right ? i mean it . i want our companies to be okay . i want us to be okay . victoria : okay . maybe with your strength and with our connections , we can finally bring the newmans and the abbotts together . christine : actually , i do have a comment . victor newman stands accused of heinous crimes . he has corrupted personal and business relationships in the most despicable way possible , and the state will not back down . no amount of money or pull will save victor from his conviction , and i will get justice for all his victims , including ms . abbott . satisfied ? phyllis : all right , take it outside . i 'm not gon na add one more word to that . go . jack : you heard her . let 's go . go . is that what you wanted -- to take on the d.a . in front of the press ? phyllis : well , they went after her for good reason . when was the last time christine did her job properly ? she says that she wants justice , but she is gon na sigh and whine and flounce , and victor is gon na get off . jack : that is not going to happen . phyllis : i just -- i need to think of a way to make sure he does not walk . i want him to suffer . jack : and how do you gauge that -- his suffering , i mean ? when is it enough ? phyllis : i will know it when i feel it . jack : you got to stop this , honey . it 's gon na take you under . phyllis : i have been under before . i am the woman who had sex with a man who was not her husband . i know that . you know that . everybody knows that . and if you do n't think victor should suffer for that , then once again , i do n't know you at all . stitch : is this who you are , the kid who gets sent home for fighting ? max : but , dad -- stitch : `` but , dad `` nothing . do you know how much i have on my plate right now ? do you think i have any time to deal with this ? abby : ben , the other kid was just as much to blame -- stitch : the other kid is n't my son . you are . you 're a part of this family , so get it together . stop making my life harder than it already is ! [ sighs ] max . devon : would you care to explain to me this new understanding ? hilary : well , yeah . it 's -- it 's really good . ashley , would you like to do the honors ? ashley : of course . i 'm stepping down . and i would like hilary to take over for me . [ next_on ] stitch : why are the cops involved ? dylan : the teacher is obligated to report it if she suspects a child is being mistreated at home . nick : it 's okay if you want to look . marisa : how can you keep me out of jail ? noah : we 'll just have to get married .Summarize.[/INST]at the coffeehouse , luca tries to strike up a deal with kevin and mariah concerning natalie and her software . victoria feels guilty that she betrayed her own father , but billy assures her that she did what had to be done . christine tells jack and michael that there were no casualties in the boating accident . christine reminds jack that kelly held him hostage so this will be considered self defense . michael tells jack that he is free and clear . downstairs in the dining room at the athletic club , abby lets stitch know what has been going on concerning jack and kelly and how she held him hostage while marco pretended to be jack . stitch becomes angry and tells abby that jack used kelly and then murdered her .</s> | 16,550 |

( door slams ) why did n't you try to stop him ? danny : hmm ? michelle : are you going to tell me what this is all about ? danny : bill 's upset , honey . michelle : right , i figured that part out . why ? danny : because we had a little disagreement . michelle : okay . about what ? danny : look , neither one of us has been in a situation like this before . it 's very intense working so hard only to lose the election to ross after a recount . michelle : well , then we 'll do another count , okay ? and we 're going to contest every ballot that does n't go our way . danny : no . that 's what i 'm trying to tell you -- a recount , another recount , would kill us . honey , they already think that i rigged the vote . michelle : danny , that is exactly why we have to continue to fight to clear your name , okay ? look -- you ran an honest campaign , and the people deserve to know that . danny : well , i need you ...

i mean , how many chances do we get to do this ? michelle : i just feel bad taking you away from darci . frank : well , don't . it was her idea . she knew how much i was missing my little girl . michelle : i 'm missing you , too , dad . this is nice . frank : this is more than nice , because we 're going to have a very big night tonight , because we have something to celebrate . lizzie : okay , so i guess everyone 's gone now except us . tammy : i guess we 're the only ones still worried about forgetting our lines . joey : tonight really helped me a lot . you get points for having us over here tonight , lizzie . lizzie : yeah , well , i need to make things up to a lot of people -- the whole world , practically . tammy : spare the world and start with olivia . lizzie : you know , i 'm going to start with anyone but olivia . she moved in here , did i tell you that ?

danny : well ... ross : danny , it 's all right , you know ? i can come back later . danny : no . no . okay , you wanted to know what bill and i were arguing about . ross , it was a fierce campaign with great ideas on both sides . now , i 'm not saying the better man won , but i 've ... you know i 've always respected you . i know that you will make a fine mayor . i 'm conceding . congratulations . michelle : whoa , whoa , whoa , wait a minute . danny : honey ... michelle : no , no , no . absolutely not . danny : no , the recount was fair . it was close . it was close , but ross won it . it was fair . congratulations . ross : danny , this was not what i expected when you called . danny : i 'm sure it was a big relief , huh ? ross : not really , because i 'm sorry that it 's ending this way . you and i both got into this race for all the right reasons . michelle : no , ross . you entered this race to push danny out . danny : michelle , stop it . ross : it 's all right . it 's all right . i 'm sure blake would fight the same fight if the circumstances were reversed . danny , i accept your concession . you let me know how you want it to be announced . and believe me , i 'm going to do my very best for this city . danny : i know you will . i do . ross : michelle . all right , we 'll be in touch . both of you take care . danny : you , too . michelle , it 's not ross ' fault . michelle : danny , right now i hate everyone who doubted you -- everyone . ed : hey , ross , what 's going on ? ross : danny just conceded the election to me . michelle : danny , do n't do this . please look -- this is a decision that you 're going to regret . danny : okay , i know that you do n't want to give up . i do . michelle : well , you should n't want to , either . no , look . look , you should be calling right now for a recount . danny : why ? the votes are just going to come back the same way . ross has the votes . michelle : you do n't know that . people make mistakes on their ballots all the time . danny : trust me , trust me . trust me , i know . michelle : how do you know ? danny : i know . michelle : you have never cared about what people say about you . you 've fought much harder battles than this one , danny . danny : well , those were fights i knew i could win , honey . michelle : well , you would n't have run if you did n't think you could win . you know what ? danny : what ? michelle : you do n't look like someone who 's lost something . you look like you 've given up . and that is not like you , danny . so what is really going on ? alexandra : well , alan , it 's a crying shame we have to leave our own home in order to have a private conversation , is n't it ? alan : may i remind you that bringing olivia into our home was a part of your master scheme ? alexandra : yes , yes , and yes . and i stand by the plan , too . it does n't mean i have to enjoy it . it 's going to be a very difficult time , a difficult period of adjustment . alan : yes , it will be difficult , but we will do the best we can . alexandra : yes , of course , we will . and you know something ? it is lovely having a new baby in the house again , is n't it ? because she 's a doll . alan : although one would never know it . olivia wo n't let us anywhere near emma . alexandra : well , i swear the nanny is an ex - marine or something . alan : either that or a bodyguard . now , alexandra , you did n't invite me all the way down here just to discuss olivia . alexandra : no , absolutely not . because in the big scheme of things olivia 's just a fly on the wall we can just , you know , splat when the time is right . no , i want to talk about something that 's far more important -- spaulding . spaulding 's image . we happen to be on a disastrous track right now if we do n't do something about it , and i mean now . tammy : hi , mom . cassie : hi , honey . how 's rehearsal ? tammy : we 're done . can you come pick me up ? cassie : i thought lizzie was sending you home in a car . tammy : her driver 's out right now , and i really want to come home . edmund : does tammy need a ride ? tell her i 'm on my way . cassie : did you hear that ? your knight in shining armor is on his way . tammy : oh , that is so great . thanks , mom . and thank edmund for me . cassie : i will . you know what ? edmund : hmm ? cassie : you 're my knight in shining armor , too . edmund : mmm . mmm . hmm . lizzie : so my dad 's in a psychiatric hospital . joey : that 's pretty tough . lizzie : if only you knew what it felt like to have your dad just disappear in this dark hole and then miss these huge chunks of your life . joey : at least your parents are still around . it 's just been me and my mom for a while now . lizzie : you miss your dad ? joey : sometimes . you know , it screwed with my head for a while . i thought it was my fault my parents were apart . lizzie : you know what ? i feel the same way , too . and those feelings , they just make you do stuff . joey : i did stuff . lizzie : yeah , me , too . joey : and i stopped messing around when i saw how sad i was making my mom . plus father ray got on my back . look , lizzie , i 'm not telling you any of this stuff so you 're going to feel sorry for me . i just want to let you know i get it . i get you . you know , the things with your dad , the stuff you did . lizzie : why i kidnapped my baby sister ? joey : you did n't hurt her , right ? lizzie : no , never . joey : okay , so things went down the way they went down , same with me . lizzie : yeah , but you have a reputation . joey : so do you . lizzie : why are you being so nice to me ? joey : give me one good reason why i should n't be . i mean , i like you . we 're friends . lizzie : since when ? joey : since you decided that you could be a friend to me . it took you long enough , though . lizzie : yeah . i guess everyone just thinks i 'm a pain in the butt . joey : yeah . lizzie : okay . you 're supposed to say , `` no , you 're not . `` joey : you are . i still like you , though . lizzie : all right . that 's cool . marah : hi . jeffrey : hi . marah : i 'm not supposed to be here . jeffrey : no , you 're not . i did n't want you to leave . i ... you had to . it was best for you . marah : what 's best for me is you . you know you 'll never be whole again without me . jeffrey : no , i won't . marah : then do n't ever let me go . jeffrey : hi . what are you doing ? what , do you think i 'm sad ? well , i 'm not . i 'm not sad , okay ? what , you do n't believe me ? i bet you your fire truck . i 'm not sad . i bet you your fire truck and a bag of marbles i 'm ... what am i doing ? i 'm lying to you . you know , i should n't be lying to you , you know ? we 've got a great friendship , right ? and that 's not going to go anywhere unless we 're completely honest with each other , so you pegged me . you 're a smart kid , okay ? i 'm sad . i am . you know , i could smile . i could smile and i could ... i could smile so big my face would crack , but people would still know i 'm sad . at least you would . so i should be honest with you . i 'm sad , i admit it . but you know what ? i 'm not going to do anything except wallow in my sadness and go to work . rj : you always work . jeffrey : well , maybe that 's because , you know , it helps me to not think about things that i do n't want to think about . you know , is n't someone looking for you ? well , here 's your mommy , so why do n't you get going ? cassie : hey . mrs. chitwood 's ready to take you to your sleep - over , okay ? yeah . jeffrey : you got a sweet kid there , mrs . winslow , but i thought ... i thought i told you to keep him out of here . cassie : looks like to me you enjoy the company . jeffrey : well , i was just trying to be polite to the kid , you know ? cassie : polite ? i think the word you used was `` sad . `` ed : you know , when danny brought me back to town , i thought i was finally going to become the father my kids needed , but since i 've been back , i have ... i 've caused more problems than i 've solved . ross : both michelle and rick love having you here . for themselves , of course , but now there 's also the grandchildren . ed : and then obviously i love the grandchildren , but now all i sit ... i sit around and worry , you know ? am i going to let them down , too ? ross : you won't . ed : i 've got to go inside . ross : yeah ? i think danny and michelle need a little parenting at this point , and frankly , i feel sorry for danny , because i remember being his age and doing the wrong thing for the right reasons . and he so wanted this to work out . ed : yeah , i know . ross : give me a call when you 're done . i 'll be up ... better yet , why do n't you come over ? blake is just dying to see you . ed : okay . congratulations , mr . mayor . ross : thank you , edward . danny : nothing is going on . nothing is going on . i 'm conceding to ross because i lost . michelle : no . no , danny . danny : yeah , michelle . the recount was fair . dragging it out will just make me look like a bigger loser . michelle : okay , you 've included me in everything . now , here is the biggest decision for you to make ... danny : you are all i 'm thinking about , you and the family . michelle : but we 're fine . danny : no . michelle : okay , we want you to keep on fighting . danny : no , no , no . look , if i sue for another recount , i will be dragging my name in the mud and the bauer name right along with it . michelle : if you give up and walk away , people are going to think you did rig the vote . danny : ross is a good man . ross will be a good mayor . that 's it , discussion over . michelle : i ca n't let this go , danny . danny : michelle , i do n't want to talk about it anymore ! ( knock at door ) come in . hey , ed . ed : it 's a bad time . danny : no , actually , it 's not . please , come in . ed : i ran into ross on the way in . michelle : you know what ? if you 're here to tell us how everything worked out for the best ... danny : michelle . michelle : just do n't , okay ? danny : she 's ... she 's having a harder time of it than i am . ed : that 's what ross said . danny : yeah . i 'm so lucky i have a wife that wants to fight for me . ed : yeah , you are . look , danny , i 'm sorry . i know that i jumped on the bandwagon real late , but i have a lot of faith in you , and i think you would have made a fine mayor . danny : thanks , ed . i appreciate it . ed : i mean , i know how hard you fight for stuff when you think it 's right . i mean , how hard you fought to bring me back to my family . danny : still one of the best things i 've ever done . ed : well , i 'll tell you what : i think i ought to go . michelle : you know what ? do n't go because of me , please . ed : honey , i do n't want to intrude . michelle : hey , that 's what parents do , right ? i mean , i plan on intruding on robbie the rest of his life , so ... you know , if i 'm weird right now , it 's just because i am . i 'm just ... i 'm still spinning . ed : i understand . michelle : i was really awful to ross before . ed : do n't you think that blake would have fought the same kind of fight as you ? michelle : yeah , i know . i know . i 'm just really sorry that we made you choose between us and ross . i know that that 's been really hard on you guys . ed : honey , ross knows that i will always be on your side . and yours , too . danny : thanks . michelle : yeah , thank you . i guess maybe there 's one good thing that came out of all this mess . alexandra : and , alan , i do n't have to remind you of the beating that spaulding image has taken in the last few months . first , there 's phillip 's breakdown . then there 's the deal you made to save your own hide , to allow the feds to investigate us . alan : the feds were going to investigate us anyway . i was thinking about the company when i made the deal in the first place , alexandra . alexandra : yes , you keep telling yourself that . alan : you know , it 's interesting that you never mention last year 's big scandal , where you tried to drug me into oblivion . alexandra : all right , alan , you and i agreed we would move past that , and i 'm talking here and now , in the present . the latest disaster we have concerns bad girl . i was just informed that our spokeswoman for bad girl is going to marry happily and become a good girl . what next ? alan : i do n't know , but i 'm sure you 're going to tell me , so why do n't you go ahead and make your pitch . what is it ? are we going to open an animal shelter in the lobby ? save the rain forest ? save the whales ? what ? tell me . alexandra : i do n't know . i just know that we have to do something . alan : well , that 's brilliant . thank you so much . this has been extremely helpful . now , if you will excuse me ... alexandra : no , no , wait a minute . whoa , hold on . here he is . this is the young man who might possibly help us save spaulding 's image . frank : you know what i was thinking about the other day ? i was thinking about all those old father - daughter dances that i used to take you to at your elementary school , you know , before your mother moved you away . marina : you know , i cried the first time i realized we could n't go to that dance together . frank : well , you know what ? maybe we can make up for that . marina : ( laughs ) what , you want to go to a father - daughter dance ? frank : well , i mean not necessarily a father - daughter dance , but maybe some special event that comes about . speaking of which , does n't my little girl have a birthday coming up ? marina : that 's right . how many shopping days are left ? frank : do n't worry , i already have your gift . don't ... do n't worry , darci helped me pick out everything . marina : everything ? frank : we were talking , and we thought that that museum must hold some pretty bad memories for you . i mean , that whole thing that went down with ben and that crazy nut - case carrie . marina : you bought me my own apartment ? frank : better than that . we redid your old room at the house . it is ready and waiting for you . lizzie : you know , i never really thought that we had anything in common . i mean , look at us . joey : yeah . you 're like miss richie rich , and i 'm , like , not . ( laughs ) lizzie : yeah . i 'm sure if i was a guy , i 'd be something like you . except i 'd have my money , of course . joey : i 'll take your money . lizzie : yeah . and i would be this big - time baseball stud with a super popular girlfriend . joey : who 's always comparing me to someone else . lizzie : she 's comparing you to who ? joey : forget it . lizzie : no , seriously , joey . do you think she likes someone else ? joey : no , not `` likes , `` exactly . she 's just ... she puts her mom 's boyfriend on such a high pedestal he probably has a nosebleed by now . lizzie : edmund ? joey : i mean , you should see the way she looks at him and the way she hangs on his every word , like he 's a movie star or something . i ca n't compete against that . lizzie : well , you should n't have to , joey . ew . she has a crush on edmund ? joey : no . look , tammy 's with me and everything 's cool except for this one thing , okay ? so forget it . and do n't say anything ? lizzie : okay , i won't . tammy : there you guys are . edmund 's on his way over . maybe he can help us work on act i , especially your balcony stuff . it still needs work . lizzie : she so does not deserve him . cassie : i know what you did for marah . jeffrey : well , you know what ? cassie : it must have been tough . jeffrey : marah 's not here . marah 's gone . marah left . cassie : i know that . jeffrey : and i really do n't feel like discussing it , if you do n't mind . cassie : i 'm sure you do n't , but ... jeffrey : but you 're not done , are you ? cassie : no , not quite . i think what you did for marah was amazing , and i may have been wrong about you . jeffrey : no , you were n't wrong about me , okay ? i am a big jerk . side of things sometimes . and thank you for the compliment , but if the compliments are done , i really do have to get to work . okay ? cassie : sorry that i made you feel a human connection . but since you mention work , danny santos is a very good friend of mine , and your office is investigating him . now , maybe you ca n't tell me anything , but i would like to know if the allegations against him are true . joey : okay , let 's do the balcony scene . that 's the one thing everyone 's going to be waiting for . tammy : you 're supposed to be on my right ? joey : i 'm more comfortable over here . tammy : but that 's not the way sandy blocked it . joey : but this works for me . sandy wo n't care . lizzie : yeah , it works for me , too . tammy : you ca n't just change everything at the last minute . joey : why not , if it makes things better ? tammy : because ... edmund ! i am so glad you 're here . joey keeps trying to change everything . we 're going to look like a bunch of amateurs . edmund : whatever happens , you are going to be the loveliest juliet springfield has ever seen . tammy : you really think so ? edmund : i 'm sure of it . tammy : lizzie , thanks for letting us use your house . i 'll see you guys tomorrow . joey : whoa , whoa . you 're not quitting are you ? tammy : edmund came to take me home . joey : right . but it 's not like you do n't have another ride home . this is the last night we 're all going to all get to rehearse the play together . tammy : did n't we just say if you 're not ready by now , you 'll never be ready . joey : i 'm ready . i could be readier . tammy : we 'll be fine . i do n't want to keep edmund waiting . edmund : we can stay . i can help you . lizzie : you know what ? you should get juliet to bed . she needs to get her beauty rest . and i can help joey . tammy : thank you , lizzie . lizzie : yeah . tammy : you ready ? edmund : your carriage awaits . tammy : see you tomorrow . edmund : good night . lizzie : are you okay ? joey : yeah , i guess ... i do n't know . we were supposed to hang tonight . i guess i 'll just go home . lizzie : well , no . why do n't you just stay here and ... i do n't know , you 're still nervous about it , are n't you ? joey : well , i have some work i need to do , but i 'll just do it at home . lizzie : well , why do n't you just do it with me ? joey : really ? i mean , i 'm not stupid , you know ? i know my lines . lizzie : have a seat . i 'll show you how juliet 's really supposed to be done . alexandra : go ahead , sandy . do n't be shy . sandy : no problem . what are we discussing ? alan : well , apparently , you and my sister think that spaulding is in need of good pr . sandy : ah . ah . no offense , sir . i was making a statement about big corporations in general . alan : mm - hmm . sandy : you all seem to be getting a bad reputation these days . alexandra : yes , well , this conversation all started , you know , when we were discussing lizzie and what would be best to plan for her after her graduation . alan : well , i think that 's simple : diamond earrings and a trip to europe . alexandra : ( laughs ) i 'm telling you , alan , that i think we have to come up with something , well , challenging for lizzie , and at the same time , very probably prop up spaulding 's image . alan : well , i 'm all for this , and i would like to hear what you both have to say . and when you come up with a plan , let me know . sandy : i have a suggestion . alexandra : go ahead , go ahead . sandy : why do n't you ask lizzie for her input ? she 's full of ideas . put them to good use . frank : marina , moving back home does n't mean that you have to change your life altogether . i just want you to come home and rest and start breathing again . be young again . marina : dad ? dad ? that would change my life altogether . i mean , what about shayne ? frank : well , he would get liberal visitation rights . i mean ... it 's not that i want you to be a little girl forever , okay ? it 's just that i know my daughter 's had a lot of pressure on her , a lot of weight on her shoulders , okay , and i just want to alleviate some of the burden , some of the weight ? okay ? you deserve to relax and be happy . and i just want you to start breathing again , you know ? sandy : she 's working on the breathing . she 'll get there . frank : well , if it is n't diamond jim brady . sandy : that 's me . hey there , chief cooper . mind if i ... marina : do n't worry , dad . i saved the family name . i beat him . frank : ( laughs ) i 'm sure you did . please , sit down . sandy : thank you . frank : well , honey . did you happen to fill him in ? marina : about aunt harley ? you bet . sandy : ah , she 's my next challenge . let it be known , i plan to beat every one of you coopers at poker . sorry if i interrupted your dinner . i was just dropping off cassie 's deposit for the after - party and ms . spaulding stopped me . marina : you and alex ? i 'm going to have to tell my grandfather . sandy : we 're working on a project for lizzie . marina : wish you luck . lizzie 's a project all unto herself . sandy : maybe , but i 've taken an interest in her since i 've been directing her in `` romeo and juliet . `` she needs guidance . marina : among other things . frank : well , sandy , i think that 's awfully nice of you to help her out and all that . in fact , i was just having a little conversation here with my daughter , that i do n't think it 's such a bad idea to have somebody look out for you . ed : i love you , honey . michelle : i love you , too . thank you for being here . danny : it was nice of him to come by . you feel better ? make you feel better ? michelle : you know what ? i 'm never going to feel better until i get some real answers . danny : hey , you have all the answers . michelle : yeah , well , i do n't believe them . danny : you do . well , that 's because you 're my wife , and you do n't want to think anything bad about me . michelle : don't . do n't make me seem like i 'm some pathetic `` stand by your man `` wife . i know . i know that there 's something wrong . danny : what ? michelle : and danny , i can't ... i ca n't let it go . and i do n't believe you can , either . jeffrey : so , you want to know if danny santos bought the election . cassie : it 's rumors , right ? i mean , it 's gossip . you could at least tell me whether i should listen to gossip or not . jeffrey : well , why do n't you do this ? here 's an idea , hm ? why do n't you ignore the rumors and the gossip and believe your friend ? ah , ca n't do it , can you ? see , that silence there should tell you something about how you see danny . you believe that he is guilty . i 've got nothing else to say about it . cassie : you can tell me the truth . jeffrey : i 'll tell you this : think about your life , think about your kids , okay ? think about your business . and stay away from danny santos , because if you do n't , you 're going to find yourself in something that gets very , very ugly , and the life that you know will never be the same again . joey : man , i wish i rehearsed with you more before tonight . you 'd make a great juliet . lizzie : ( laughs ) well , tonight was the best i 've ever seen you do romeo . seriously , you had every single line down pat . joey : want to know my secret ? music . i put the words to music . lizzie : wow . that 's weird . it 's kind of cool . joey : music 's my life . i mean , i do n't know , i love it . even more than baseball , and well , shakespeare 's words are like lyrics anyway , so i just sing them in my head . it 's the only way i could memorize this stuff . lizzie : so you just sing your entire performance ? joey : yeah . lizzie : wow , that 's amazing . joey : i 've got another secret . lizzie : okay . well , you can tell me . joey : i 'm going to sing to tammy tomorrow at the cast party . i 've got it all planned out . lizzie : you 're going to sing , like , a love song to her ? you 're going to serenade her ? joey : yeah . lizzie : wow , joey . joey : do n't say anything , okay ? i 'm afraid i 'm going to punk out . i 'm nervous as it is . lizzie : no , no , no , it 'll be great . i mean , you 're singing a love song to your girlfriend . i ca n't think anything else would be more romantic . joey : lizzie , thanks . lizzie : no , honestly , you helped me out so much . i feel so much better . i really do . joey : no problem . anytime . lizzie : anytime . danny : you know what ? i think we both need some sleep . you need some rest . michelle : yeah , okay . i 'll rest when this thing is over . danny : honey , it 's over . michelle : so you 're just going to sit back and let them do this to you ? danny : it 's done . michelle : no , danny . danny : yeah , it is . michelle : no , it 's not . danny : it is . michelle : i 'm going upstairs and i 'm going to check on our son . danny : okay . i 'll be up in a minute . yeah , i conceded to ross . i 'll make it public tomorrow . jeffrey : okay , good . anything else ? danny : uh , let 's see . bill , my campaign manager and former friend , wanted to beat the hell out of me . jeffrey : well , you should 've let him . that kind of thing would have worked for us . danny : well , fortunately , bill is a decent guy , so i got to keep my teeth . jeffrey : well , good for you . anything else ? danny : yeah . i hope your night was worse than mine . jeffrey : that 's funny . hang on a second . danny : what ? jeffrey : well , it 's time for the next step now . your public confession . danny : how much more do you want from me , o'neill ? jeffrey : you 're going to have to pace yourself , danny . this is just the beginning . you better go work on that speech . marah . they say a man can be happy with any woman as long as he does n't love her . well , that 's a lie . because i loved you and you made me happier , happier than i ever had a right to be . good - bye . danny : next , on `` guiding light `` ... michelle : i do n't know why you 're trying to destroy my husband , but i do know that you are going to have to go through me to do it . danny : there 's no way to prove i did n't do it , tony . tony : well , you know what ? there 's one way to fix this mess , danny . you tell them i did it . | marah heads for the plane but comes back and tells him she loves him , she is disappointed he does n't return the sentiment . she gets on the plane and then he says i love you to marah . michelle wants to continue to fight for danny as mayor but danny does n't think so . danny tells ross it was a fierce campaign and he is sure ross will make a great mayor because he is conceding . michelle is upset that danny has given up which is not like him and she wants to know what is really going on . danny calls jeffrey and tells him everything he did and jeffrey says it is time for his public confession . r.j comes into jeffrey 's room for a visit . jeffrey tells rj he is n't sad and he then admits he is sad to rj . he says all he is going to do is wallow and work and r.j tells him he works to much . cassie asks if the allegations against danny are true . jeffrey says she should believe her friend but she should stay away from danny or she might get caught up in something ugly that will effect her whole life . alex has had sandy and alan out for dinner at which sandy offers his idea for lizzie to work at spaulding . joey and lizzie bond over family problems . frank wants marina to move back home | <s>[INST] danny : wait , michelle . michelle : bill ! bill , wait ! ( door slams ) why did n't you try to stop him ? danny : hmm ? michelle : are you going to tell me what this is all about ? danny : bill 's upset , honey . michelle : right , i figured that part out . why ? danny : because we had a little disagreement . michelle : okay . about what ? danny : look , neither one of us has been in a situation like this before . it 's very intense working so hard only to lose the election to ross after a recount . michelle : well , then we 'll do another count , okay ? and we 're going to contest every ballot that does n't go our way . danny : no . that 's what i 'm trying to tell you -- a recount , another recount , would kill us . honey , they already think that i rigged the vote . michelle : danny , that is exactly why we have to continue to fight to clear your name , okay ? look -- you ran an honest campaign , and the people deserve to know that . danny : well , i need you ... ( knocking on door ) ross : hello , michelle . michelle : oh , uh ... ross , this really is n't a good time . danny : no , honey , it 's okay . i asked ross to come over . we have some business to settle . edmund : danny is going to be fine . he 's a survivor . he has a family who loves him . stop worrying about danny and start focusing a bit on my distress . cassie : what 's wrong ?

edmund : i love you . alexandra : well , good . i was just about to order another . alan : well , hold on to your seats , ladies and gentlemen . so , why 'd you invite me out at this hour for a late dinner when cook had prepared a lovely meal at home , huh ? alexandra : because we ca n't talk at home . the walls have ears -- olivia 's ears . frank : okay . there you go , sweetheart . marina : oh , dad , you are so weird . frank : thank you , honey . marina : cute weird , making such a big deal out of us having dinner together . frank : well , it kind of is a big deal , is n't it ? i mean , how many chances do we get to do this ? michelle : i just feel bad taking you away from darci . frank : well , don't . it was her idea . she knew how much i was missing my little girl . michelle : i 'm missing you , too , dad . this is nice . frank : this is more than nice , because we 're going to have a very big night tonight , because we have something to celebrate . lizzie : okay , so i guess everyone 's gone now except us . tammy : i guess we 're the only ones still worried about forgetting our lines . joey : tonight really helped me a lot . you get points for having us over here tonight , lizzie . lizzie : yeah , well , i need to make things up to a lot of people -- the whole world , practically . tammy : spare the world and start with olivia . lizzie : you know , i 'm going to start with anyone but olivia . she moved in here , did i tell you that ? she 's bogarting her way back into our family again . joey : speaking of family , i think every spaulding in town is going to be at the play . i picked up your tickets . lizzie : oh , except my dad still ... oh , wait . you know what ? i think i left the front door open . let me go check . joey : maybe i should go check on her ? tammy : whatever . lizzie : you carry a handkerchief ? joey : my mom makes me . `` joseph francis angelo lupo , you 're going to be a gentleman even if it kills you . `` oh . so i 'm thinking you 're out here crying because you miss your dad , and you 're sad he wo n't be at the play tomorrow . lizzie : how did you know that ? joey : i 'm missing my dad , too . marah : do you know how much i 'll miss you ? jeffrey : go . marah : jeffrey ... jeffrey : look , the first step 's the hardest , but you have to do it , okay ? just do it . do it for yourself . everything 's going to be okay . everything 's going to be more than okay , i promise . now go . marah : i love you . jeffrey : i love you , too , marah . this portion of `` guiding light `` is sponsored by tampax -- the one , the only , tampax . danny : ross , please have a seat . i 'll be with you in just one minute . okay , look . i wanted to tell you about this before ross came over . michelle : well , it 's too late . he 's here . so tell me what ? danny : well ... ross : danny , it 's all right , you know ? i can come back later . danny : no . no . okay , you wanted to know what bill and i were arguing about . ross , it was a fierce campaign with great ideas on both sides . now , i 'm not saying the better man won , but i 've ... you know i 've always respected you . i know that you will make a fine mayor . i 'm conceding . congratulations . michelle : whoa , whoa , whoa , wait a minute . danny : honey ... michelle : no , no , no . absolutely not . danny : no , the recount was fair . it was close . it was close , but ross won it . it was fair . congratulations . ross : danny , this was not what i expected when you called . danny : i 'm sure it was a big relief , huh ? ross : not really , because i 'm sorry that it 's ending this way . you and i both got into this race for all the right reasons . michelle : no , ross . you entered this race to push danny out . danny : michelle , stop it . ross : it 's all right . it 's all right . i 'm sure blake would fight the same fight if the circumstances were reversed . danny , i accept your concession . you let me know how you want it to be announced . and believe me , i 'm going to do my very best for this city . danny : i know you will . i do . ross : michelle . all right , we 'll be in touch . both of you take care . danny : you , too . michelle , it 's not ross ' fault . michelle : danny , right now i hate everyone who doubted you -- everyone . ed : hey , ross , what 's going on ? ross : danny just conceded the election to me . michelle : danny , do n't do this . please look -- this is a decision that you 're going to regret . danny : okay , i know that you do n't want to give up . i do . michelle : well , you should n't want to , either . no , look . look , you should be calling right now for a recount . danny : why ? the votes are just going to come back the same way . ross has the votes . michelle : you do n't know that . people make mistakes on their ballots all the time . danny : trust me , trust me . trust me , i know . michelle : how do you know ? danny : i know . michelle : you have never cared about what people say about you . you 've fought much harder battles than this one , danny . danny : well , those were fights i knew i could win , honey . michelle : well , you would n't have run if you did n't think you could win . you know what ? danny : what ? michelle : you do n't look like someone who 's lost something . you look like you 've given up . and that is not like you , danny . so what is really going on ? alexandra : well , alan , it 's a crying shame we have to leave our own home in order to have a private conversation , is n't it ? alan : may i remind you that bringing olivia into our home was a part of your master scheme ? alexandra : yes , yes , and yes . and i stand by the plan , too . it does n't mean i have to enjoy it . it 's going to be a very difficult time , a difficult period of adjustment . alan : yes , it will be difficult , but we will do the best we can . alexandra : yes , of course , we will . and you know something ? it is lovely having a new baby in the house again , is n't it ? because she 's a doll . alan : although one would never know it . olivia wo n't let us anywhere near emma . alexandra : well , i swear the nanny is an ex - marine or something . alan : either that or a bodyguard . now , alexandra , you did n't invite me all the way down here just to discuss olivia . alexandra : no , absolutely not . because in the big scheme of things olivia 's just a fly on the wall we can just , you know , splat when the time is right . no , i want to talk about something that 's far more important -- spaulding . spaulding 's image . we happen to be on a disastrous track right now if we do n't do something about it , and i mean now . tammy : hi , mom . cassie : hi , honey . how 's rehearsal ? tammy : we 're done . can you come pick me up ? cassie : i thought lizzie was sending you home in a car . tammy : her driver 's out right now , and i really want to come home . edmund : does tammy need a ride ? tell her i 'm on my way . cassie : did you hear that ? your knight in shining armor is on his way . tammy : oh , that is so great . thanks , mom . and thank edmund for me . cassie : i will . you know what ? edmund : hmm ? cassie : you 're my knight in shining armor , too . edmund : mmm . mmm . hmm . lizzie : so my dad 's in a psychiatric hospital . joey : that 's pretty tough . lizzie : if only you knew what it felt like to have your dad just disappear in this dark hole and then miss these huge chunks of your life . joey : at least your parents are still around . it 's just been me and my mom for a while now . lizzie : you miss your dad ? joey : sometimes . you know , it screwed with my head for a while . i thought it was my fault my parents were apart . lizzie : you know what ? i feel the same way , too . and those feelings , they just make you do stuff . joey : i did stuff . lizzie : yeah , me , too . joey : and i stopped messing around when i saw how sad i was making my mom . plus father ray got on my back . look , lizzie , i 'm not telling you any of this stuff so you 're going to feel sorry for me . i just want to let you know i get it . i get you . you know , the things with your dad , the stuff you did . lizzie : why i kidnapped my baby sister ? joey : you did n't hurt her , right ? lizzie : no , never . joey : okay , so things went down the way they went down , same with me . lizzie : yeah , but you have a reputation . joey : so do you . lizzie : why are you being so nice to me ? joey : give me one good reason why i should n't be . i mean , i like you . we 're friends . lizzie : since when ? joey : since you decided that you could be a friend to me . it took you long enough , though . lizzie : yeah . i guess everyone just thinks i 'm a pain in the butt . joey : yeah . lizzie : okay . you 're supposed to say , `` no , you 're not . `` joey : you are . i still like you , though . lizzie : all right . that 's cool . marah : hi . jeffrey : hi . marah : i 'm not supposed to be here . jeffrey : no , you 're not . i did n't want you to leave . i ... you had to . it was best for you . marah : what 's best for me is you . you know you 'll never be whole again without me . jeffrey : no , i won't . marah : then do n't ever let me go . jeffrey : hi . what are you doing ? what , do you think i 'm sad ? well , i 'm not . i 'm not sad , okay ? what , you do n't believe me ? i bet you your fire truck . i 'm not sad . i bet you your fire truck and a bag of marbles i 'm ... what am i doing ? i 'm lying to you . you know , i should n't be lying to you , you know ? we 've got a great friendship , right ? and that 's not going to go anywhere unless we 're completely honest with each other , so you pegged me . you 're a smart kid , okay ? i 'm sad . i am . you know , i could smile . i could smile and i could ... i could smile so big my face would crack , but people would still know i 'm sad . at least you would . so i should be honest with you . i 'm sad , i admit it . but you know what ? i 'm not going to do anything except wallow in my sadness and go to work . rj : you always work . jeffrey : well , maybe that 's because , you know , it helps me to not think about things that i do n't want to think about . you know , is n't someone looking for you ? well , here 's your mommy , so why do n't you get going ? cassie : hey . mrs. chitwood 's ready to take you to your sleep - over , okay ? yeah . jeffrey : you got a sweet kid there , mrs . winslow , but i thought ... i thought i told you to keep him out of here . cassie : looks like to me you enjoy the company . jeffrey : well , i was just trying to be polite to the kid , you know ? cassie : polite ? i think the word you used was `` sad . `` ed : you know , when danny brought me back to town , i thought i was finally going to become the father my kids needed , but since i 've been back , i have ... i 've caused more problems than i 've solved . ross : both michelle and rick love having you here . for themselves , of course , but now there 's also the grandchildren . ed : and then obviously i love the grandchildren , but now all i sit ... i sit around and worry , you know ? am i going to let them down , too ? ross : you won't . ed : i 've got to go inside . ross : yeah ? i think danny and michelle need a little parenting at this point , and frankly , i feel sorry for danny , because i remember being his age and doing the wrong thing for the right reasons . and he so wanted this to work out . ed : yeah , i know . ross : give me a call when you 're done . i 'll be up ... better yet , why do n't you come over ? blake is just dying to see you . ed : okay . congratulations , mr . mayor . ross : thank you , edward . danny : nothing is going on . nothing is going on . i 'm conceding to ross because i lost . michelle : no . no , danny . danny : yeah , michelle . the recount was fair . dragging it out will just make me look like a bigger loser . michelle : okay , you 've included me in everything . now , here is the biggest decision for you to make ... danny : you are all i 'm thinking about , you and the family . michelle : but we 're fine . danny : no . michelle : okay , we want you to keep on fighting . danny : no , no , no . look , if i sue for another recount , i will be dragging my name in the mud and the bauer name right along with it . michelle : if you give up and walk away , people are going to think you did rig the vote . danny : ross is a good man . ross will be a good mayor . that 's it , discussion over . michelle : i ca n't let this go , danny . danny : michelle , i do n't want to talk about it anymore ! ( knock at door ) come in . hey , ed . ed : it 's a bad time . danny : no , actually , it 's not . please , come in . ed : i ran into ross on the way in . michelle : you know what ? if you 're here to tell us how everything worked out for the best ... danny : michelle . michelle : just do n't , okay ? danny : she 's ... she 's having a harder time of it than i am . ed : that 's what ross said . danny : yeah . i 'm so lucky i have a wife that wants to fight for me . ed : yeah , you are . look , danny , i 'm sorry . i know that i jumped on the bandwagon real late , but i have a lot of faith in you , and i think you would have made a fine mayor . danny : thanks , ed . i appreciate it . ed : i mean , i know how hard you fight for stuff when you think it 's right . i mean , how hard you fought to bring me back to my family . danny : still one of the best things i 've ever done . ed : well , i 'll tell you what : i think i ought to go . michelle : you know what ? do n't go because of me , please . ed : honey , i do n't want to intrude . michelle : hey , that 's what parents do , right ? i mean , i plan on intruding on robbie the rest of his life , so ... you know , if i 'm weird right now , it 's just because i am . i 'm just ... i 'm still spinning . ed : i understand . michelle : i was really awful to ross before . ed : do n't you think that blake would have fought the same kind of fight as you ? michelle : yeah , i know . i know . i 'm just really sorry that we made you choose between us and ross . i know that that 's been really hard on you guys . ed : honey , ross knows that i will always be on your side . and yours , too . danny : thanks . michelle : yeah , thank you . i guess maybe there 's one good thing that came out of all this mess . alexandra : and , alan , i do n't have to remind you of the beating that spaulding image has taken in the last few months . first , there 's phillip 's breakdown . then there 's the deal you made to save your own hide , to allow the feds to investigate us . alan : the feds were going to investigate us anyway . i was thinking about the company when i made the deal in the first place , alexandra . alexandra : yes , you keep telling yourself that . alan : you know , it 's interesting that you never mention last year 's big scandal , where you tried to drug me into oblivion . alexandra : all right , alan , you and i agreed we would move past that , and i 'm talking here and now , in the present . the latest disaster we have concerns bad girl . i was just informed that our spokeswoman for bad girl is going to marry happily and become a good girl . what next ? alan : i do n't know , but i 'm sure you 're going to tell me , so why do n't you go ahead and make your pitch . what is it ? are we going to open an animal shelter in the lobby ? save the rain forest ? save the whales ? what ? tell me . alexandra : i do n't know . i just know that we have to do something . alan : well , that 's brilliant . thank you so much . this has been extremely helpful . now , if you will excuse me ... alexandra : no , no , wait a minute . whoa , hold on . here he is . this is the young man who might possibly help us save spaulding 's image . frank : you know what i was thinking about the other day ? i was thinking about all those old father - daughter dances that i used to take you to at your elementary school , you know , before your mother moved you away . marina : you know , i cried the first time i realized we could n't go to that dance together . frank : well , you know what ? maybe we can make up for that . marina : ( laughs ) what , you want to go to a father - daughter dance ? frank : well , i mean not necessarily a father - daughter dance , but maybe some special event that comes about . speaking of which , does n't my little girl have a birthday coming up ? marina : that 's right . how many shopping days are left ? frank : do n't worry , i already have your gift . don't ... do n't worry , darci helped me pick out everything . marina : everything ? frank : we were talking , and we thought that that museum must hold some pretty bad memories for you . i mean , that whole thing that went down with ben and that crazy nut - case carrie . marina : you bought me my own apartment ? frank : better than that . we redid your old room at the house . it is ready and waiting for you . lizzie : you know , i never really thought that we had anything in common . i mean , look at us . joey : yeah . you 're like miss richie rich , and i 'm , like , not . ( laughs ) lizzie : yeah . i 'm sure if i was a guy , i 'd be something like you . except i 'd have my money , of course . joey : i 'll take your money . lizzie : yeah . and i would be this big - time baseball stud with a super popular girlfriend . joey : who 's always comparing me to someone else . lizzie : she 's comparing you to who ? joey : forget it . lizzie : no , seriously , joey . do you think she likes someone else ? joey : no , not `` likes , `` exactly . she 's just ... she puts her mom 's boyfriend on such a high pedestal he probably has a nosebleed by now . lizzie : edmund ? joey : i mean , you should see the way she looks at him and the way she hangs on his every word , like he 's a movie star or something . i ca n't compete against that . lizzie : well , you should n't have to , joey . ew . she has a crush on edmund ? joey : no . look , tammy 's with me and everything 's cool except for this one thing , okay ? so forget it . and do n't say anything ? lizzie : okay , i won't . tammy : there you guys are . edmund 's on his way over . maybe he can help us work on act i , especially your balcony stuff . it still needs work . lizzie : she so does not deserve him . cassie : i know what you did for marah . jeffrey : well , you know what ? cassie : it must have been tough . jeffrey : marah 's not here . marah 's gone . marah left . cassie : i know that . jeffrey : and i really do n't feel like discussing it , if you do n't mind . cassie : i 'm sure you do n't , but ... jeffrey : but you 're not done , are you ? cassie : no , not quite . i think what you did for marah was amazing , and i may have been wrong about you . jeffrey : no , you were n't wrong about me , okay ? i am a big jerk . side of things sometimes . and thank you for the compliment , but if the compliments are done , i really do have to get to work . okay ? cassie : sorry that i made you feel a human connection . but since you mention work , danny santos is a very good friend of mine , and your office is investigating him . now , maybe you ca n't tell me anything , but i would like to know if the allegations against him are true . joey : okay , let 's do the balcony scene . that 's the one thing everyone 's going to be waiting for . tammy : you 're supposed to be on my right ? joey : i 'm more comfortable over here . tammy : but that 's not the way sandy blocked it . joey : but this works for me . sandy wo n't care . lizzie : yeah , it works for me , too . tammy : you ca n't just change everything at the last minute . joey : why not , if it makes things better ? tammy : because ... edmund ! i am so glad you 're here . joey keeps trying to change everything . we 're going to look like a bunch of amateurs . edmund : whatever happens , you are going to be the loveliest juliet springfield has ever seen . tammy : you really think so ? edmund : i 'm sure of it . tammy : lizzie , thanks for letting us use your house . i 'll see you guys tomorrow . joey : whoa , whoa . you 're not quitting are you ? tammy : edmund came to take me home . joey : right . but it 's not like you do n't have another ride home . this is the last night we 're all going to all get to rehearse the play together . tammy : did n't we just say if you 're not ready by now , you 'll never be ready . joey : i 'm ready . i could be readier . tammy : we 'll be fine . i do n't want to keep edmund waiting . edmund : we can stay . i can help you . lizzie : you know what ? you should get juliet to bed . she needs to get her beauty rest . and i can help joey . tammy : thank you , lizzie . lizzie : yeah . tammy : you ready ? edmund : your carriage awaits . tammy : see you tomorrow . edmund : good night . lizzie : are you okay ? joey : yeah , i guess ... i do n't know . we were supposed to hang tonight . i guess i 'll just go home . lizzie : well , no . why do n't you just stay here and ... i do n't know , you 're still nervous about it , are n't you ? joey : well , i have some work i need to do , but i 'll just do it at home . lizzie : well , why do n't you just do it with me ? joey : really ? i mean , i 'm not stupid , you know ? i know my lines . lizzie : have a seat . i 'll show you how juliet 's really supposed to be done . alexandra : go ahead , sandy . do n't be shy . sandy : no problem . what are we discussing ? alan : well , apparently , you and my sister think that spaulding is in need of good pr . sandy : ah . ah . no offense , sir . i was making a statement about big corporations in general . alan : mm - hmm . sandy : you all seem to be getting a bad reputation these days . alexandra : yes , well , this conversation all started , you know , when we were discussing lizzie and what would be best to plan for her after her graduation . alan : well , i think that 's simple : diamond earrings and a trip to europe . alexandra : ( laughs ) i 'm telling you , alan , that i think we have to come up with something , well , challenging for lizzie , and at the same time , very probably prop up spaulding 's image . alan : well , i 'm all for this , and i would like to hear what you both have to say . and when you come up with a plan , let me know . sandy : i have a suggestion . alexandra : go ahead , go ahead . sandy : why do n't you ask lizzie for her input ? she 's full of ideas . put them to good use . frank : marina , moving back home does n't mean that you have to change your life altogether . i just want you to come home and rest and start breathing again . be young again . marina : dad ? dad ? that would change my life altogether . i mean , what about shayne ? frank : well , he would get liberal visitation rights . i mean ... it 's not that i want you to be a little girl forever , okay ? it 's just that i know my daughter 's had a lot of pressure on her , a lot of weight on her shoulders , okay , and i just want to alleviate some of the burden , some of the weight ? okay ? you deserve to relax and be happy . and i just want you to start breathing again , you know ? sandy : she 's working on the breathing . she 'll get there . frank : well , if it is n't diamond jim brady . sandy : that 's me . hey there , chief cooper . mind if i ... marina : do n't worry , dad . i saved the family name . i beat him . frank : ( laughs ) i 'm sure you did . please , sit down . sandy : thank you . frank : well , honey . did you happen to fill him in ? marina : about aunt harley ? you bet . sandy : ah , she 's my next challenge . let it be known , i plan to beat every one of you coopers at poker . sorry if i interrupted your dinner . i was just dropping off cassie 's deposit for the after - party and ms . spaulding stopped me . marina : you and alex ? i 'm going to have to tell my grandfather . sandy : we 're working on a project for lizzie . marina : wish you luck . lizzie 's a project all unto herself . sandy : maybe , but i 've taken an interest in her since i 've been directing her in `` romeo and juliet . `` she needs guidance . marina : among other things . frank : well , sandy , i think that 's awfully nice of you to help her out and all that . in fact , i was just having a little conversation here with my daughter , that i do n't think it 's such a bad idea to have somebody look out for you . ed : i love you , honey . michelle : i love you , too . thank you for being here . danny : it was nice of him to come by . you feel better ? make you feel better ? michelle : you know what ? i 'm never going to feel better until i get some real answers . danny : hey , you have all the answers . michelle : yeah , well , i do n't believe them . danny : you do . well , that 's because you 're my wife , and you do n't want to think anything bad about me . michelle : don't . do n't make me seem like i 'm some pathetic `` stand by your man `` wife . i know . i know that there 's something wrong . danny : what ? michelle : and danny , i can't ... i ca n't let it go . and i do n't believe you can , either . jeffrey : so , you want to know if danny santos bought the election . cassie : it 's rumors , right ? i mean , it 's gossip . you could at least tell me whether i should listen to gossip or not . jeffrey : well , why do n't you do this ? here 's an idea , hm ? why do n't you ignore the rumors and the gossip and believe your friend ? ah , ca n't do it , can you ? see , that silence there should tell you something about how you see danny . you believe that he is guilty . i 've got nothing else to say about it . cassie : you can tell me the truth . jeffrey : i 'll tell you this : think about your life , think about your kids , okay ? think about your business . and stay away from danny santos , because if you do n't , you 're going to find yourself in something that gets very , very ugly , and the life that you know will never be the same again . joey : man , i wish i rehearsed with you more before tonight . you 'd make a great juliet . lizzie : ( laughs ) well , tonight was the best i 've ever seen you do romeo . seriously , you had every single line down pat . joey : want to know my secret ? music . i put the words to music . lizzie : wow . that 's weird . it 's kind of cool . joey : music 's my life . i mean , i do n't know , i love it . even more than baseball , and well , shakespeare 's words are like lyrics anyway , so i just sing them in my head . it 's the only way i could memorize this stuff . lizzie : so you just sing your entire performance ? joey : yeah . lizzie : wow , that 's amazing . joey : i 've got another secret . lizzie : okay . well , you can tell me . joey : i 'm going to sing to tammy tomorrow at the cast party . i 've got it all planned out . lizzie : you 're going to sing , like , a love song to her ? you 're going to serenade her ? joey : yeah . lizzie : wow , joey . joey : do n't say anything , okay ? i 'm afraid i 'm going to punk out . i 'm nervous as it is . lizzie : no , no , no , it 'll be great . i mean , you 're singing a love song to your girlfriend . i ca n't think anything else would be more romantic . joey : lizzie , thanks . lizzie : no , honestly , you helped me out so much . i feel so much better . i really do . joey : no problem . anytime . lizzie : anytime . danny : you know what ? i think we both need some sleep . you need some rest . michelle : yeah , okay . i 'll rest when this thing is over . danny : honey , it 's over . michelle : so you 're just going to sit back and let them do this to you ? danny : it 's done . michelle : no , danny . danny : yeah , it is . michelle : no , it 's not . danny : it is . michelle : i 'm going upstairs and i 'm going to check on our son . danny : okay . i 'll be up in a minute . yeah , i conceded to ross . i 'll make it public tomorrow . jeffrey : okay , good . anything else ? danny : uh , let 's see . bill , my campaign manager and former friend , wanted to beat the hell out of me . jeffrey : well , you should 've let him . that kind of thing would have worked for us . danny : well , fortunately , bill is a decent guy , so i got to keep my teeth . jeffrey : well , good for you . anything else ?

max : no , not about my feelings . i ne -- i do n't tell you how to feel . chelsea : yeah , well , i 'm sure you would if you actually cared how i felt . max : okay , what is that supposed to mean ? chelsea : it means that you 're in your own little world , max . i mean , you 're either constantly on the defense about your poor misunderstood little sister or you 're upset at stephanie , the girl you broke up with -- mind you -- because she likes philip and not you . it 's really , really boring . max : oh , okay , so i 'm boring you now . chelsea : when you constantly talk about melanie , stephanie , and philip , yes , it 's like , `` okay , max is gon na obsess about the three of them now and i 'm gon na cease to exist . `` max : wow , that 's really paranoid , chelse . chelsea : you think i 'm imagining that you 're so consumed with the stephanie and philip dynamic or whatever we 're calling it these days , fine . then sit here and honestly tell me that you do n't even care if the girl 's fallen for the guy . max : no , what i do care about is all these questions and accusations . i feel like i 'm on trial here . and the way you 're looking at me right now , i - i - i -- chelsea : fine . max , i 'm gon na make this supereasy for you . i wo n't look at you at all . how 's that ?

fox : i am dead serious . if you want your bastard son -- i 'm sorry , correction -- your eldest bastard son and yours truly to come back here and work at crane industries , then you will treat us exactly the same . otherwise , and i swear to you , i will take whitney so far out of harmony , you 'll never see either one of us ever again . julian : she 's pregnant . i mean , she 's the love of your life . yet you would cut her off from her entire family , deny her any chance of reconnecting with her mother just for your piece of the crane pie ? fox : absolutely . there 's going to be one person that takes over here when alistair 's dead , and i 'm going to prove to everybody that one person is me . and do me a favor , please , spare me the crocodile tears about whitney and her family . you never gave a damn about your own family . because actually , now that i think about it , it 's like a family tradition , is n't it ? i mean , mother cared about ethan and alistair did n't really know i was alive , and you -- you could n't keep track of how many martinis you had , let alone where your children were . julian : that 's not true . fox : not true ? well , answer me a question -- do you know where my sisters are right now ? any idea ? i rest my case . and let me tell you something , you know , growing up , i pretty much had to take care of myself because ethan was the heir , right ? and i was the spare . and then you fire me from this place , grandfather cuts me out of his will , and now i 'm not even that ! well , let me tell you something , now i 'm back in the ballgame , see ? i 'm back in it . and i 'm going to do whatever it takes to get my chance at bat . julian : you 're making a big mistake . fox : yeah , well , maybe . it 's my mistake to make . i 'm in charge of my own life . and you will give me the same chance that you 're iving chad , or whitney and i are out of here . chad : what 'd i say to whitney to make her upset like that ? whitney : oh , god . what am i doing ? chad is such a wonderful guy and , god , i loved him so much . damn you , alistair ! why did n't you die last night ? i mean , you deserve to . it 's your fault i 'm pregnant with chad 's baby . but chad can never know . ok , fox and i have to leave town before chad gets suspicious and realizes that this baby is his . sheridan : i ca n't wait until luis slips this on my finger .

you just gave birth , and you were carrying twins . theresa : i did n't miscarry , gwen . i -- i thought that i did , so i panicked . because without your embryo , i did n't have a bargaining chip to get my son back , so i did the only thing that i thought to do . gwen : oh , god . rebecca : so you went out and grabbed the first willing guy off the street and you slept with him ? i knew you were up to something , you vicious , baby - killing little tramp !

theresa : no , gwen . i would never put a baby 's life at risk . i thought that i had miscarried . but i realized i did n't when dr . russell said that i was pregnant with twins . before the night that i was bleeding , she said she found one heartbeat . and then after -- rebecca : yeah , after you played farm animals with some hobo . theresa : she heard two heartbeats . i was so confused , gwen . i mean , i did n't know whose babies i was carrying . i did n't know if they were yours and i did n't know if they were mine . so dr . russell did a test . gwen : whose babies were they , theresa ?

i mean , do n't you think it 's going to be awkward working side - by - side with chad all the time ? fox : maybe . maybe , but , look , i 'm willing to p aside any , you know , bad feelings we have towards each other if it makes things easier . whitney : well , i 'm glad . i always hoped the two of you could be friends again . fox : hmm . fox 's voice : friends ? never . there 's only room for one crane at the top , and it 's going to be me . valerie : tell me where you want this . chad : just stick it on the desk . i 'll take care of it later . you know , thanks for your help , valerie . valerie : i 'm glad you 're staying with the firm , mr . harris . chad : chad . valerie : chad . there are n't exactly a lot of minorities here at crane industries . chad : yeah , yeah , i noticed that . you know , what do you say we work together to change that ? valerie : i 'd like that . you know , you 're always so nice to everyone , always so pleasant . you treat everyone like equals . not like alistair . he 's such a pig . chad : yeah . valerie : i 'm sorry . i forgot he 's your grandfather . chad : yeah , well , not according to him . besides , to me , he 's just a bloodsucking monster . valerie : well , do n't be shy . tell me how you really feel . chad : well , there 's no use pretending , right ? valerie : you know , your father , julian , used to be a lot like alistair . but he 's been better lately , nicer . chad : yeah . yeah , he 's trying to change , i guess . valerie : i 'll bet you had a lot to do with that . mrs. wallace : see ? there 's your mama ! is n't she pretty ? beth : hi ! luis : my son is here ! hey there ! with his grandmother , mrs . wallace . hey . father lonigan : so i gather . luis : hey , big guy ! beth : hi , sweetheart ! why is n't he down for a nap ? mrs. wallace : well , i tried , you see , but he could n't take his eyes off the tv set . i said , `` where 's mama ? `` he just kept pointing at the set , you know ? first , it was paris hilton , then it was jessica simpson , then it was heather locklear . funny , they were all blondes . beth : ok , come here , sweetheart . mrs. wallace : no , no , no . sheridan , do n't you want to hold him ? i know he 's crazy about you . sheridan : i 'd love to , but , i mean , if it 's all right with beth . beth : well , i do n't think that 's really -- mrs . wallace : no , no , she does n't mind . believe me , she dumps him off on anyone . sheridan : sure , thanks . hi , guy . luis : there you go . sheridan : hi ! mrs. wallace : whoo ! sheridan : hi . you know who 's cing soon ? santa ! yeah , he 's coming all the way from the north pole ! luis : whoa . sheridan : wow ! mrs. wallace : yeah , i know what i want for christmas . beth : what , a rat - infested room at the old folks ' home ? mrs. wallace : ah . sheridan : hey , i just feel so close to him sometimes , you know , so connected . beth : it 's only natural . you did nurse him for a while when i could n't , you know , so of course you -- you have a slight bond . luis : listen , sheridan , i know you miss our baby . i do , too . we 'll have another one , ok ? a dozen if you want . how 's that ? father lonigan , one more thing -- beth asked me if we could have little marty baptized again . i know you already did it when he was sick , but she just wanted it to be a little more formal , you know ? father lonigan : that 's no problem . i 'll be happy to perform the sacrament . luis : thank you . mrs. wallace : maybe sheridan could be the godmother ! luis : godmother ? sheridan : want me to be your godmother ? huh ? beth : one more word from you and father lonigan 's going to plan your next sacrament -- last rites ! i know what you 're up to , bringing marty here so he can bond with sheridan . mrs. wallace : duh . she 's his real mommy , you baby - stealing klepto cuckoo clock . beth : well , it 's not going to happen . marty is my son -- mrs . wallace : no , no . beth : and nothing is going to change that -- nothing . mrs. wallace : you know , you might want to tell your son that . marty : mommy . mama . beth : watch out for broken glass in your soup tonight , mother . mrs. wallace : oh , you -- beth : ok , guys . i guess i 'd better get him home for a nap , ok ? we can talk about the baptism later . all right , come on , honey . say `` bye - bye . `` marty : bye - bye . beth : yeah ! it 's time for sleepy land . come on ! [ marty fusses ] mrs. wallace : oh , would you look at that ? he thinks you 're his mommy ! father lonigan : shall we go into my office and discuss the wedding ? luis : yeah , that 'd be great . ok , come on , marty . there you go . there you go . all right . beth : hi . luis : beth , i 'll talk to you later , ok ? beth : ok . bye - bye . marty : bye - bye . luis : bye . beth : bye , daddy . luis : love you . beth : bye - bye . say `` love you . `` marty : bye . [ marty fusses ] beth : yeah . grandma is n't very nice , is she ? no , she wants to take you away from me , but that is never going to happen . never , never , never . never , ok ? that 's a good boy . what ? no , no ! no , give me my baby back ! you ca n't take him ! give him to me ! mrs. wallace : now what ? beth : give him back ! mrs. wallace : you have the heebie - jeebies or the d.t.s ? beth : no . just talking , um , out loud . julian : what is it ? i thought my news would make you happy . eve : i am . julian : no , no . come on , i know you . what is it ? eve : oh , i 'm just concerned about whitney . she 's been through so much lately , finding out about you and me , that 's chad our son and her half brother , and t.c . and our divorce , and she 's pregnant . julian : well , at least fox is the father and not chad . can you imagine how difficult it would be for her to deal with that ? eve : yes . julian : yes , and fox , i think , genuinely loves whitney and he 'll take very good care of her and the child , and she can move on with her life and put her relationship with chad behind her . eve : i hope so . fox : you know , i was thinking , we have a lot to get accomplished before this baby comes . we got to first find a way to get out of sam bennett 's garage apartment , we have to find our own place , and then we 'll get married . whitney : married ? fox : well , yeah , i do n't want my child to be born illegitimate . whitney : well , of course not . i -- no . um , i guess i had never thought about marriage since -- fox : oh , with chad . whitney : yeah . fox : you sure you 're over him , by the way ? whitney : well , of course i am . no , he 's my brother . no , i just worry about him , you know ? i just want to make sure he 's ok . fox : well , he 'll be ok . he 'll be fine . you just wait and see . he 'll find someone and he 'll move on with his life . chad : so , valerie , you 've been working here a long time , right ? valerie : yeah , ever since i finished secretarial college , and mom worked here forever and my dad was on the loading dock . chad : whew . valerie : which is no surprise . almost everyone in harmony works for the cranes one way or another . chad : i guess you know where all the bodies are buried , huh ? valerie : yeah , i know about a few . chad : you know , what do you say i take you out for a really expensive late lunch on crane industries ? you know , i 'd like to get a little more info on the crane burial arrangements . valerie : i 'd love that . chad : all right . gwen : you thought you miscarried , but you did n't ? woody : oh , lord have -- cease , desist , and de - stop ! rebecca : then you call the cops after i kill her ! now , get out ! woody : no , ma'am . my client d i are going -- theresa : it 's ok , it 's ok . i 'm ok . woody : are you sure ? theresa : yeah , you can go . it 's fine . please , woody . rebecca : yeah , out . woody : all right . be careful . rebecca : now , you listen , and you listen good -- gwen : mother , it 's ok , let me . ethan : gwen , i need to talk to you now . gwen : not now . you know , it 's funny , from the moment i met you , i knew that you were vile and unbelievably selfish , and i was proved right when you killed my sarah . theresa , have you thought at all about what you 've done now ? you have damaged my life and my baby 's life forever . now , you tell me who the unlucky sap was that you enticed into your bed , and i hope it was n't poor fox . theresa : no . gwen : then you tell me who it was , theresa . who the hell did you sleep with ? i want to know right now . theresa : i think you know , gwen . rebecca : oh , my god , i knew it . gwen : no , i want to hear it from you . theresa , you tell me right now who you slept with . who is the father of that baby ? why wait for a rebate ... julian : not to worry . there 's no way that whitney still wants chad . she 's his half sister . she 's with fox now . eve : you do n't know whitney as well as i do . i mean , normally , she 's very gentle , very loving , but when she wants something , loves something , she can become truly fierce . i mean , that 's why she got so far in tennis , because she 's got this wickedly competitive edge . when she loves someone the way she loves chad , she wo n't let go . not ever . whitney : well , i think i 'm going to stick with the chicken salad . fox : chicken salad ? what ? no , no , no , they do an incredible lobster club sandwich here . you got to have that . besides , what do you care ? julian 's paying , anyway . whitney : ok . fox : well , look what we have here . looks to me like chad 's already moved on with his life . luis : ooh . i 'll tell you something , we are going to have to work our tails off to make this wedding happen in time . but it 'll be worth it , right ? earth to sheridan ? sheridan : hmm ? what ? luis : what 's going on ? you barely said a word in the car on the way home . sheridan : i 'm sorry , luis . it 's just that sometimes when i get around babies , it just makes me sad . look , do n't think i 'm crazy , but there are times when i -- i wake up in the middle of the night and i ca n't go back to sleep because i -- i feel something in my heart , i hear something calling out to me . luis : what ? sheridan : our baby . i still feel like our baby is alive somewhere . luis : oh , sheridan . sheridan : i stay up half the night , you know , praying for a miracle . luis : darling , you know that that 's not possible . we both saw our baby go off the cliff in that car . there 's no way it could 've survived those icy waters . sheridan : i know . i know . i mean , my mind knows that , but my heart , it just still feels like our baby is truly alive out there somewhere , you know , just around a corner , just out of reach . beth : well , your little stun with marty and sheridan failed , mother . marty : hot . beth : yeah , hot ! i am more determined than ever to win luis back , you malevolent hag . mrs. wallace : aw , sticks and stones may break my bones ! oh , no , forget i said that . beth : if i could just get alistair to tell me that one damn word , i know i could use it to break up luis and sheridan forever . marty : hi . beth : hi . mrs. wallace : i got a word for you -- psycho ! beth : you know , he was trying to say it in the hospital room . i do n't know , it sounded like it started with an m. what word starts with an m , m ? come on . theresa : you know who the father of that child is . gwen : theresa , how could i know ? how could i possibly know ? it could be anybody . you would sleep with the first guy who walked in . theresa : i 've been in love with one man my entire life , gwen . you know that . gwen : ethan , please tell me that this is n't true . you have got to tell me that this is a lie . please tell me you did not sleep with theresa , because you can not possibly be the father of her baby . gwen : not only now have you lied to me , but you slept with her ? damn you ! katherine : what 's going to happen when luis sees his father ? luis : leave . you have no right to be here . alistair : the magic word that can tear luis and sheridan apart is `` mother `` ! | eve worries about how fox will be able to support whitney and the baby without a job , and is afraid they will have to move away , taking her chance to reconcile with her daughter with them . julian comes to the rescue , giving both fox and chad the old jobs back . fox and whitney go out for a celebratory lunch on the boss , and after chad meets his beautiful new assistant , he takes her to the same restaurant . whitney sees them and is not pleased . eve worries about her daughter 's reaction to seeing chad move on because the quiet little lady is a tiger when she is losing something she wants to keep . | <s>[INST] fox : i am dead serious . if you want your bastard son -- i 'm sorry , correction -- your eldest bastard son and yours truly to come back here and work at crane industries , then you will treat us exactly the same . otherwise , and i swear to you , i will take whitney so far out of harmony , you 'll never see either one of us ever again . julian : she 's pregnant . i mean , she 's the love of your life . yet you would cut her off from her entire family , deny her any chance of reconnecting with her mother just for your piece of the crane pie ? fox : absolutely . there 's going to be one person that takes over here when alistair 's dead , and i 'm going to prove to everybody that one person is me . and do me a favor , please , spare me the crocodile tears about whitney and her family . you never gave a damn about your own family . because actually , now that i think about it , it 's like a family tradition , is n't it ? i mean , mother cared about ethan and alistair did n't really know i was alive , and you -- you could n't keep track of how many martinis you had , let alone where your children were . julian : that 's not true . fox : not true ? well , answer me a question -- do you know where my sisters are right now ? any idea ? i rest my case . and let me tell you something , you know , growing up , i pretty much had to take care of myself because ethan was the heir , right ? and i was the spare . and then you fire me from this place , grandfather cuts me out of his will , and now i 'm not even that ! well , let me tell you something , now i 'm back in the ballgame , see ? i 'm back in it . and i 'm going to do whatever it takes to get my chance at bat . julian : you 're making a big mistake . fox : yeah , well , maybe . it 's my mistake to make . i 'm in charge of my own life . and you will give me the same chance that you 're iving chad , or whitney and i are out of here . chad : what 'd i say to whitney to make her upset like that ? whitney : oh , god . what am i doing ? chad is such a wonderful guy and , god , i loved him so much . damn you , alistair ! why did n't you die last night ? i mean , you deserve to . it 's your fault i 'm pregnant with chad 's baby . but chad can never know . ok , fox and i have to leave town before chad gets suspicious and realizes that this baby is his . sheridan : i ca n't wait until luis slips this on my finger . [ luis groans ] sheridan : what ? luis : father lonigan has confirmation classes later today , so he wants us to come by the church now to talk to him about the wedding . sheridan : ok . you know , i 'm sorry , beth . i guess we 'll have to work on the wedding plans some other time . luis : yeah , thanks for coming by to help , but -- beth : my pleasure . but i 'm still not quite sure why you asked me . gwen is sheridan 's best friend . why is n't she here ? sheridan : oh , you have n't heard . luis : gwen 's tied up at the hospital right now . theresa gave birth to ethan and gwen 's baby . beth : already ? but it 's months premature . luis : i know . the baby 's hanging in there , but it 's not good . and neither is the situation with theresa and gwen . in fact , it 's a little -- a little sticky right now . who am i kidding ? it 's more than sticky . it 's downright horrible . gwen : ugh ! god ! woody , what are you talking about ? theresa could not possibly be the biological mother of that baby ! she is mine ! woody : no , ma'am , that 's her baby . yes , ma'am , i do n't mean maybe . gwen : what ? rebecca : now , you listen here , judge reilly is a friend of mine and i 'm going to have you disbarred ! no , better yet , i 'm going to have you deported ! how does christmas in north korea sound to you ? ivy : what is going on here ? gwen : well , theresa 's lawyer says that the court order we have that gives me my own baby is n't valid because theresa 's the biological mother of that child . you 're crazy ! woody : crazy in my quest to fight for the rights of the disenfranchised . gwen : that is my baby in there , woody , not theresa 's ! can you do something , please ? rebecca : listen , you mark geragos wannabe , i am going to make you sorry that you ever met that little tamale , you got that ? ethan : do n't do this . do you know how much pain you 're going to cause if it comes out that that little girl could be our baby ? theresa : i know she is ours , ethan . i know it in my heart . and look , i am sorry , i did n't mean to cause anyone any pain , but gwen and rebecca , they stole my son from me and i was tryingo get him back , but things just got out of control . ethan : they always do with you . theresa : look , you ca n't hide the truth forever , ok ? that baby in tre is my daughter and not gwen 's ! gwen : no ! no , theresa ! ethan : stop it ! gwen : that baby is mine ! get off of me ! singer : i would hold the hand of the one who could lead me places and kiss the lips of the one who could sing so sweet and i would fly on the wings of the bird i knew could take me highest breathe in , breathe out you keep me alive you are the fire burning inside of me you are my passion for life beth : i had no idea about the baby . but i 'm sure she 'll be fine . luis : well , say a prayer . the baby 's in intensive care . she 's still critical . sheridan : yeah , and with all this worry about the baby , you know , the situation between theresa and gwen is dicey , too . luis : theresa 's convinced that the baby is hers . sheridan : and gwen is equally convinced that the baby is hers . beth : oh . but theresa 's just the surrogate . did n't she have to sign papers giving custody to gwen and ethan ? why would she think she 's the mother ? luis : look , theresa told me that she slept with ethan , ok ? so there 's just as good of a chance that that baby in the nicu is theresa 's baby with ethan as it is ethan 's baby with gwen . sheridan : oh , my god . gwen does n't know yet , does she ? luis : no , not yet , but i do n't know how much longer that 's going to last . sheridan : oh , god , gwen has been through so much already , i mean , with theresa trying to break up her marriage . this is going to be worse . this is going to break her heart . luis : i know . well , it 's a complicated situation . sheridan : yeah . luis : one with no easy answers , i 'm afraid . mrs. wallace : hey , pally pal , what do you say we go visit your real mama , huh ? because the more you and sheridan see each other , the more she will bond with you and realize that she is your real mama and not bethie . then bethie 's going to be thrown in jail for a long time . how does that sound , huh ?

fox : no , no . good news -- my father just gave me my job back . whitney : oh . fox : you do n't seem too enthusiastic about it . it 's good news . whitney : well , no , i was just thinking i think it 's a good idea if we leave harmony , you know , and start fresh somewhere new . fox : yeah , yeah , no , i mean , you know , we can still do that if you want , but , whitney , i mean , think about it . you know , i never finished college , ok ? we 'd have to start out with nothing . i ca n't make the kind of money i can make here somewhere else , and we have great health insurance here , and , whitney , you 're pregnant , you know ? god forbid something happened to the baby . medical bills can ruin people for life . whitney 's voice : and chad 's baby is more likely to have birth defects . whitney : yeah , you 're right . i mean , staying here in harmony is the right thing to do . fox : good . whitney : fox , i want you to know i appreciate you . i appreciate you taking on the responsibility of me and the baby . i really do . fox : `` appreciate `` ?

beth : you know , as long as you 're going to the church -- oh , never mind . luis : what , beth ? what is it ? beth : i do n't want to horn in . i was just thinking maybe we could talk to father lonigan , too . i 'd really like to get little marty baptized . well , he 's over a year now , so -- luis : beth , he was already baptized at the hospital when he was born . beth : i know . i 'm silly . but i want to do it again , you know , have a formal baptism with family and friends and maybe a little party . sheridan : you know what ? she 's right . it really is a lovely idea , and i know that pilar has the most beautiful christening gown . luis : all right , so we 'll all go down to the church and talk to father lonigan . beth : oh , thank you . i 'll just call mother and tell her i 'm going to be a little late . sheridan : ok . luis : you 're a good woman , th , and a wonderful mother . beth : and very soon , i 'm going to be a wonderful wife to you , luis . rebecca : well , eve , spit it out . what secret are you keeping for the tartita ?

gwen : no , not now , ok ? ok , theresa , come on . give me your best shot . rebecca : yeah , could you please speed it up ? i mean , your lies usually take forever , and i would really like to be kicking your bloody carcass down the street by nightfall . theresa : before i tell you what happened , i just need to say that i did what i did because you stole my son from me . gwen : oh , here we go again . theresa : i was desperate to get him back . gwen : like i 'm desperate to get my baby back ? ivy : gwen , just let her have her say . eresa : you all know that i was implanted with ethan and gwen 's embryo . and i tried to be careful . i did everything i could to make sure that the baby was healthy . but what you do n't know is that something went wrong , because soon after i was pregnant , i started bleeding . gwen : what ? theresa : i tried to stop the bleeding , gwen . nothing worked . gwen : theresa , are you saying that you lost my baby ? singer : you are my passion for life julian : thank you , valerie . i 'm going to the hospital to check on gwen and her baby . why do n't you take those boxes back to your office ? also , i had a thought . if you want to redecorate the office , you feel free . you 're going to be working here for a good many years . chad : well , it 's pretty slick already . valerie : it is a nice office . you 've got the best view on the whole floor . julian : and you know , i was thinking with alistair out of the way and both my sons back onboard , we have a chance to build a real crane dynasty , one that perhaps we can be proud of . chad : well , that sounds like a plan . look , i ca n't pretend to have any real father - or - son feelings for you , but thanks for the chance . i 'll do my best . julian : i know you will . valerie : oh , let me help you with those . chad : no , i can handle it . valerie : i know you can , but if you do n't let your assistant assist , i 'll be out of a job . chad : well , i would n't want that , would i ? valerie : good . so are you ready to get back into your executive life , mr . harris ? chad : that 's chad , and , yeah , i 'm ready . whitney : you know what , are you sure you want to eat here ? it 's really expensive . fox : no , it 's fine , trust me . whitney , i 'm a crane again , ok ? money 's no object . besides , i 'll write it off on my expense report as a business lunch , let julian pay for it . how 's that sound ? whitney : ok , i mean , if you 're sure . fox : i 'm positive . look , we 're here to celebrate , ok , because i 'm with the woman that i love -- you -- and my dad gave me my job back and , most importantly , you 're carrying my baby . if that 's not a reason to celebrate , i do n't know what is . i love you . luis : father lonigan ? father lonigan : luis . luis : hi . father lonigan : and sheridan ? sheridan : yes , i 'm here , and beth is here , too . father lonigan : beth . here to help the happy couple ? beth : actually , i -- luis : we just wanted to thank you , father , for agreeing to marry us the day after christmas . father lonigan : i 'm certain god will smile upon this very special union . beth 's voice : i 'll turn god 's smile upside down , padre . once alistair wakes up and tells me that secret word , nothing will stop me from tearing apart luis and sheridan forever . mrs. wallace : what did i tell you , little fella ? there 's your mama . gwen : theresa , are you saying that you miscarried my baby , my last chance to have a biological child ? rebecca : my god , ca n't you do anything right ? gwen : mother , shut up . theresa , how is this possible ? you just gave birth , and you were carrying twins . theresa : i did n't miscarry , gwen . i -- i thought that i did , so i panicked . because without your embryo , i did n't have a bargaining chip to get my son back , so i did the only thing that i thought to do . gwen : oh , god . rebecca : so you went out and grabbed the first willing guy off the street and you slept with him ? i knew you were up to something , you vicious , baby - killing little tramp ! ( woman # 1 ) it 's how i knew every summerfrom now on would be different . rebecca : so what did you do , flag down some trucker on the highway and give him the old humpty - dumpty at a rest stop ? gwen : theresa , i ca n't believe this . eve was right . i mean , when she checked you out and she heard the second baby 's heartbeat , she thought you had slept with another man and had another egg fertilized . theresa , you put my baby at risk for a roll in the hay ? theresa : no , gwen . i would never put a baby 's life at risk . i thought that i had miscarried . but i realized i did n't when dr . russell said that i was pregnant with twins . before the night that i was bleeding , she said she found one heartbeat . and then after -- rebecca : yeah , after you played farm animals with some hobo . theresa : she heard two heartbeats . i was so confused , gwen . i mean , i did n't know whose babies i was carrying . i did n't know if they were yours and i did n't know if they were mine . so dr . russell did a test . gwen : whose babies were they , theresa ? tell me that right now . theresa : one was yours . the other was mine . julian : may i come in ? eve : oh , i 'm so glad to see one happy face today . julian : oh . is it the baby ? eve : well , she 's holding her own , but there are other complications , but i do n't want to talk about it right now . julian : this should cheer you up . i 've hired both chad and fox to come back to work at crane industries . eve : oh , julian ! julian : see , now you do n't have to worry about whitney leaving harmony or how she and fox will support their child . eve : oh , god , that is marvelous news ! did you do that for me ? julian : i love you , eve , and i want to see happy . with whitney close by , the two of you will be able to work on fixing your relationship . eve : well , i hope so . she 's so angry at me . julian : well , she 'll get over that , especially now . i mean , a girl needs her mother when she 's pregnant . whitney : i do n't need any blood test , i do n't need any exam to tell me who the father of my baby is because i already know who the father is . and it is n't fox . eve : oh . oh , no . whitney : it 's chad 's . my half brother 's the father of my baby . eve : you 're right . whitney needs me now more than ever . maitre d ' : ah , mr . crane . welcome back . fox : oh , thank you , henry . your best table , if you would . we 're celebrating . the lovely lady here 's about ready to have my child . henry : that is good news , sir . congratulations . this way . fox : thank you . let me offer you champagne with our compliments . whitney : aw . fox : henry , allow me . the champagne sounds great , but the mother - to - be will have sparkling water , all right ? henry : of course . whitney : thank you . fox : thank you . whitney : you know what , honey , are you sure you want to stay here in harmony ? fox : yeah , yeah . i mean , you know , look , with this job , we 'll have great money coming in , we 'll have good benefits , and you do n't have to worry about getting a job . you just take care of yourself and the baby . whitney : yeah , i know , i know , but what about you ? i mean , do n't you think it 's going to be awkward working side - by - side with chad all the time ? fox : maybe . maybe , but , look , i 'm willing to p aside any , you know , bad feelings we have towards each other if it makes things easier . whitney : well , i 'm glad . i always hoped the two of you could be friends again . fox : hmm . fox 's voice : friends ? never . there 's only room for one crane at the top , and it 's going to be me . valerie : tell me where you want this . chad : just stick it on the desk . i 'll take care of it later . you know , thanks for your help , valerie . valerie : i 'm glad you 're staying with the firm , mr . harris . chad : chad . valerie : chad . there are n't exactly a lot of minorities here at crane industries . chad : yeah , yeah , i noticed that . you know , what do you say we work together to change that ?

valerie : you know , your father , julian , used to be a lot like alistair . but he 's been better lately , nicer . chad : yeah . yeah , he 's trying to change , i guess . valerie : i 'll bet you had a lot to do with that . mrs. wallace : see ?

i know he 's crazy about you . sheridan : i 'd love to , but , i mean , if it 's all right with beth . beth : well , i do n't think that 's really -- mrs . wallace : no , no , she does n't mind . believe me , she dumps him off on anyone . sheridan : sure , thanks . hi , guy . luis : there you go . sheridan : hi ! mrs. wallace : whoo ! sheridan : hi . you know who 's cing soon ?

a dozen if you want . how 's that ? father lonigan , one more thing -- beth asked me if we could have little marty baptized again . i know you already did it when he was sick , but she just wanted it to be a little more formal , you know ? father lonigan : that 's no problem . i 'll be happy to perform the sacrament . luis : thank you . mrs. wallace : maybe sheridan could be the godmother ! luis : godmother ? sheridan : want me to be your godmother ? huh ? beth : one more word from you and father lonigan 's going to plan your next sacrament -- last rites ! i know what you 're up to , bringing marty here so he can bond with sheridan . mrs. wallace : duh . she 's his real mommy , you baby - stealing klepto cuckoo clock . beth : well , it 's not going to happen . marty is my son -- mrs . wallace : no , no . beth : and nothing is going to change that -- nothing . mrs. wallace : you know , you might want to tell your son that . marty : mommy . mama . beth : watch out for broken glass in your soup tonight , mother . mrs. wallace : oh , you -- beth : ok , guys . i guess i 'd better get him home for a nap , ok ? we can talk about the baptism later . all right , come on , honey . say `` bye - bye . `` marty : bye - bye . beth : yeah ! it 's time for sleepy land . come on !

i thought my news would make you happy . eve : i am . julian : no , no . come on , i know you . what is it ? eve : oh , i 'm just concerned about whitney . she 's been through so much lately , finding out about you and me , that 's chad our son and her half brother , and t.c . and our divorce , and she 's pregnant . julian : well , at least fox is the father and not chad . can you imagine how difficult it would be for her to deal with that ? eve : yes . julian : yes , and fox , i think , genuinely loves whitney and he 'll take very good care of her and the child , and she can move on with her life and put her relationship with chad behind her . eve : i hope so . fox : you know , i was thinking , we have a lot to get accomplished before this baby comes . we got to first find a way to get out of sam bennett 's garage apartment , we have to find our own place , and then we 'll get married . whitney : married ? fox : well , yeah , i do n't want my child to be born illegitimate . whitney : well , of course not . i -- no . um , i guess i had never thought about marriage since -- fox : oh , with chad . whitney : yeah . fox : you sure you 're over him , by the way ?

you have damaged my life and my baby 's life forever . now , you tell me who the unlucky sap was that you enticed into your bed , and i hope it was n't poor fox . theresa : no . gwen : then you tell me who it was , theresa . who the hell did you sleep with ?

what ? no , no , no , they do an incredible lobster club sandwich here . you got to have that . besides , what do you care ? julian 's paying , anyway . whitney : ok . fox : well , look what we have here . looks to me like chad 's already moved on with his life . luis : ooh . i 'll tell you something , we are going to have to work our tails off to make this wedding happen in time . but it 'll be worth it , right ? earth to sheridan ? sheridan : hmm ? what ? luis : what 's going on ? you barely said a word in the car on the way home . sheridan : i 'm sorry , luis . it 's just that sometimes when i get around babies , it just makes me sad . look , do n't think i 'm crazy , but there are times when i -- i wake up in the middle of the night and i ca n't go back to sleep because i -- i feel something in my heart , i hear something calling out to me . luis : what ? sheridan : our baby . i still feel like our baby is alive somewhere . luis : oh , sheridan . sheridan : i stay up half the night , you know , praying for a miracle . luis : darling , you know that that 's not possible . we both saw our baby go off the cliff in that car . there 's no way it could 've survived those icy waters . sheridan : i know . i know . i mean , my mind knows that , but my heart , it just still feels like our baby is truly alive out there somewhere , you know , just around a corner , just out of reach . beth : well , your little stun with marty and sheridan failed , mother . marty : hot . beth : yeah , hot ! i am more determined than ever to win luis back , you malevolent hag . mrs. wallace : aw , sticks and stones may break my bones ! oh , no , forget i said that . beth : if i could just get alistair to tell me that one damn word , i know i could use it to break up luis and sheridan forever . marty : hi . beth : hi . mrs. wallace : i got a word for you -- psycho ! beth : you know , he was trying to say it in the hospital room . i do n't know , it sounded like it started with an m. what word starts with an m , m ?

is that what you mean ? britt : look , you have to understand . nikolas : no , i do n't . britt : you have to understand . my parents are finally out of our lives , okay ? we did n't have to lie about robin anymore . our kids were safe , and we got so close during all of that , i was afraid that if i told you the truth , that i could lose it all . nikolas : so , patrick is ben 's father ? britt : no . nikolas : no ? okay . this has got to stop right now . who is ben 's father ? lulu : how could the embryos not be there ? when we were prepping maxie , we made three . ellie : right , and one of the embryos was implanted into maxie , but the other two should be in cold storage . dante : okay . so , if they 've been moved , there should be some kind of record of it , right ? ellie : i checked . the records indicate that the embryos are still there , but they 're not in their corresponding slots in the facility . i mean , it does n't make any sense . dante : well , if they 're not where they 're supposed to be , where could they have gone ? nikolas : britt , the only way we can deal with whatever this is ... is if i you tell me the truth . now , who is ben 's father ? britt : [ sighs ] [ crying ] okay . i 'll [ sighs ] i 'll tell you everything . but i just need you to know that i was desperate to get pregnant , so i needed to do it in a hurry , and i needed patrick to believe that it was his , so i - i went to the g.h . lab , and i took something that did n't belong to me . ellie : honestly , i have no idea where your embryos could be . dante : you said they were n't in the right slot . could someone have put them back in the wrong place ? ellie : no . i - i checked the lab . a digital scan indicates that all of the occupied slots are filled by their corresponding embryos . i looked everywhere . there 's no sign of them , and there 's no record that they 've been moved . lulu : i ca n't believe this is happening . dante : okay , look , can you just run us through -- what is standard procedure for this stuff ? ellie : okay . everything that comes in to the cold storage must be catalogued . nothing can be removed or used without it being signed out . see ? right here is where i logged in the three active embryos , and the only entry was on december 20th of last year , when one of them was implanted in maxie . spinelli : come on , maxie ! open the door ! maxie : i ca n't . spinelli : you 're just gon na let me and the baby stand out here in the hallway ? maxie : spinelli , just go home , okay ? you know better than anyone that if i see our daughter , i will go to jail and you will lose custody . spinelli : all right , that 's just a risk we 're gon na have to take . but , maxie , if you do n't -- if you do n't see her now , you wo n't get a chance to say goodbye . we just found out a few hours ago ellie and i are leaving town tonight , so if you do n't open the door and see this little girl , we 'll both regret it the rest of our lives . maxie : you 're leaving ? spinelli : uh ... things at the lab in portland are moving ahead at an accelerated pace . they need ellie to start tomorrow . maxie : i thought we would , um , have more time . spinelli : so did i . here . you -- you should hold her . maxie : no . i ca n't . spinelli : i wo n't tell anyone if you wo n't . dante : is it possible all three embryos were removed when the first one was signed out ? ellie : no . cold storage ca n't be opened without the attending technician signing in , and -- and that was me . lulu : so , you 're the one who removed our embryos . dante : are you the one who put them back ? ellie : yes , but i can assure you that i did n't do anything -- dante : no , i 'm not implying you did anything wrong . i 'm just trying to find out if anyone else has access to the lab . ellie : no -- no one . except maxie 's attending physician could have overridden our procedures during off hours for emergencies . lulu : britt westbourne . nikolas : what did you take from the lab , britt ? please , will you just tell me ? britt : [ sniffles ] i took a sample from the hospital sperm bank . nikolas : uh ... o - okay . britt : brad knew , so he agreed to say that he was the baby 's father to protect me , and that 's why there 's never been any connection with him and the baby -- 'cause there is n't one . nikolas : right . uh [ sighs ] i just -- i guess i do n't understand why you needed to involve brad at all . i mean , once you told patrick that he was n't the father , why not just tell him the truth ? britt : oh , nikolas , i mean , even a doctor ca n't walk into a sperm bank and walk out with a sample . i mean , there 's procedures and protocols . nikolas : and you sidestepped those ? britt : i was supposed to be having patrick 's baby , so i could n't have there be any record . so i took something that a stranger donated to the bank . i mean , i broke the law . so , i - i had to lie . i 'm so sorry . can you forgive me ? dr. obrecht : there . anna : that was quick . catchy title , yeah . i ca n't wait to read the rest . dr. obrecht : i may be a guest in this country , commissioner devane , as you once were . but i am still entitled to my phone call . anna : by all means , yeah . but , um , who 's left for you to call ? dr. obrecht : why , faison , of course . sonny : anna 's a hell of a woman . you got to do what you got to do to hold on to her . duke : that 's why i have to walk away from this fight . i despise julian jerome , but if i sacrifice my life with anna , a life that i 've waited a quarter of a century to get back , just to bring down julian jerome , he still wins . sonny : and nothing 's worth that . duke : good luck , sonny . i wish you every success , and i hope the jeromes get everything they deserve . sonny : [ grunts ] julian : corinthos ! felix : put this on . it 's my elf costume . brad : [ groans ] you know , fee , when i said i wanted to get into your pants , this was n't what i had in mind . felix : no one wants to know what 's going on in your mind . brad : all right . felix : what are you doing ? brad : the kids are expecting us in a few minutes . you really want to be late because you 're too much of a prude to change in front of me ? felix : there 's no prudes here . maxie : so , the people at ellie 's lab -- they can just force her to come tonight ? spinelli : they 've generously offered to provide last - minute transportation , as well as arranging for our remaining belongings to be sent . maxie : they 're sending people to pack up her stuff . how swanky . spinelli : mm . maxie : so , you 're leaving tonight , then ? spinelli : yeah , going straight to the airport . maxie : so , this is it . this is the last time i 'm gon na see her . spinelli : not forever . just for now . maxie : six months . right . spinelli : it 'll be over before you know it . maxie : she 's so beautiful . i ca n't believe how much she 's changed . i know people say that all the time , but it 's different when it 's your child . spinelli : it really becomes your own miracle . [ chuckles ] maxie : you know , i thought this before , but i see it even clearer now . she looks so much like her aunt georgie . spinelli : yeah , i see it , too . and that 's a good thing , i suppose ... as georgie is our baby 's namesake . maxie : what ? spinelli : yeah . i 've been thinking , and `` connie `` is a name special to dante and lulu 's family , but `` georgie `` -- it 's a name special to you . it 's special to both of us . and i 'd like that to be our daughter 's name if that 's okay with you . lulu : britt westbourne was our attending . she supervised maxie 's implantation . she had access to the embryos . dante : what would she do with them ? lulu : maxie told us that she wanted dr. westbourne to implant her with another embryo but then she could n't because maxie was already pregnant . ellie : and if maxie and dr. westbourne did n't want anyone to know , westbourne would have taken the embryos without putting it in the log . lulu : do you think this is really possible ? dante : there 's only one way to find out -- we ask her . nikolas : even if you were too blinded in the beginning to see that your plans for patrick were wrong , i mean , you had to have known at some point you were gon na have to come clean , at least with me , right ? britt : i did n't want to risk that . and then you reacted the way that you did . nikolas : well -- britt : i - i felt like i had to lie . nikolas : [ sighs ] britt : you 're the only person who 's ever been on my team , at least without me having to force someone to be . and after everything that i 've done , you have stayed by my side , and i did n't want that to change . nikolas : britt , britt , i am on your side , okay ? do n't you get that ? i 'm not going anywhere . we 've been through so much together and dealt with all of the -- crisis after crisis after -- and those experiences that connect people , you understand ? they connected us . but you 've got to stop lying to me , because the lies -- that 's the only way that you 're gon na lose me -- the only way . britt : i understand . nikolas : [ sighs ] britt : i guess i just -- i sometimes still get scared . nikolas : i - i - i know . [ sighs ] i know what you 've done ... and i - i have done some horrible things , too . horrible . but let me tell you something . i 'm right where i want to be right now , and i do n't need you to hide who you really are ... because that 's the person that i want to be with . anna : so , you want to talk to faison ? dr. obrecht : is that a problem ? anna : i just do n't know why -- why you 'd want to do that , why , after everything he 's done to you , why you 'd want to speak to him again . dr. obrecht : unlike you , my affections do not blow with the wind . one moment , it 's robert scorpio . the next , it 's duke lavery . anna : you 're right , you know ? i do seem to fall for men who do n't lock me up in catacombs for days on end . dr. obrecht : a mere fit of pique on dear cesar 's part . i can not expect you to understand . you are english and in law enforcement . what could you possibly know about love ? anna : why do n't you enlighten me ? dr. obrecht : well , when i fall in love ... anna : mm ? dr. obrecht : ... it is for life , beyond life and into eternity . and i wish to know how my cesar 's doing . i assume he 's been transferred back to steinmauer ? anna : it 's not possible for you to talk to faison . dr. obrecht : and why is that ? sonny : what 's with the gun ? you made this big show about going legit , or is media planning more cutthroat than i ever imagined ? julian : where 's carlos ? sonny : carlos ? carlos ? i do n't -- that does n't really ring a bell . julian : carlos rivera , my operations manager . he 's been missing for days . sonny : that 's too bad . good help is hard to find . julian : well , my sister suspected you were behind this . sonny : your sister ? you mean the tramp who 's shacking up with my son ? i would n't trust her judgment . julian : you know , i figured his romantic troubles were to blame for this , but now he 's been gone too long , and it 's not like carlos to disappear off the grid like this . sonny : you think i had something to do with it ? julian : you tell me where the hell he is ... or i 'm gon na take you out right here . julian : do not ... play games . where 's carlos ? sonny : you do n't want to play games ? put the gun down . you know you 're not gon na shoot me . julian : really ? sonny : yeah . julian : why is that ? sonny : because my driver , max , would blow your head off by the time you made it to the parking lot , and he would not let you live , for danny 's sake , so if you kill me , you 're signing your death warrant . julian : what if i 'm willing to risk it ? sonny : are you willing to risk a police investigation ? 'cause that 's what 's gon na happen if you kill me tonight or if i fall down and break my neck . you are gon na be at the top of the suspect list . the cops would love nothing more than to put your ass away . julian : oh , yeah , yeah , yeah . that 's right -- 'cause you think the cops are your friends because your big son is on the force , huh ? sonny : no , i think the cops are just tired of chasing me and they 'd love nothing more than to dismantle you . and you ca n't hide behind your fake i.d . as derek wells . julian : and who told you that , huh -- miss anna devane ? sonny : oh , yeah . you guys have a history , do n't you ? julian : oh , yeah . sonny : you and the police commissioner , right ? yeah , yeah . julian : you just give me a chance to settle my family 's scores , please . sonny : you think you got what it takes to take her down ? julian : let me tell you something -- i am not afraid of your allies in the p.c.p.d . , okay ? not anna devane , not your son , the detective . cops or not , i would n't think twice about taking out either one of them . anna : we 're unable to accommodate your request -- your demand -- at this time . dr. obrecht : why is not possible for me to contact cesar ? is he not at steinmauer ? anna : of course he is . yes . robert took him there himself . i 'd let you see the paperwork , but you do n't have the clearance . dr. obrecht : i 'm sure your robert scorpio signed the paperwork that claimed julian jerome was dead , but we both know that 's not true , do n't we ? anna : i do n't know what to tell you , obrecht . faison is locked up . dr. obrecht : then why ca n't i speak to him ? ! anna : because he broke out of a maximum - security prison . do you honestly think the authorities are gon na allow him to talk to the person who broke him out in the first place ? dr. obrecht : i want to talk to the bureaucrats at steinmauer myself . anna : why do you want to use your only phone call to try to contact an inmate who is in solitary confinement in a maximum - security prison ? knock yourself out . but when they reject your request , do n't come begging to make another call to someone who might actually be able to help you . dr. obrecht : you are so adamant that i not even attempt to contact cesar . is that because people will start to ask questions about where he really is and you 'll have to pay the price for what you 've done to him ? anna : your move . felix : we should , uh , get dressed . we do n't want to disappoint the kids . brad : we do n't ? no . of course we do n't . spinelli : you know , when i met you ... i thought you were the most beautiful girl i 'd ever seen . i pined after you for so long , and you never even knew i existed , yet , somehow , we became friends . maxie : spinelli , i have to tell you something , and i 'm sure you already know it , but i just -- i want to say it out loud . our friendship changed my life . even when i was at my worst , you saw the best in me . sometimes i think you were the only person to ever see any good in me . that 's because you knew how to bring out my best for the world to see . spinelli : you did the same for me . maxie : how ? [ sniffles ] spinelli : if i 'm any kind of man today , it 's because of you . i had my crushes in the past , but you were the first girl i truly loved ... and the first girl that made me believe that i was capable of being loved , that i could achieve the happiness that i saw in everyone else 's life and that i deserve that happiness just as much as anyone else . maxie : i loved you , too , spinelli , even though by the time i realized it , it was too late . i still love you . spinelli : i still love you , too . [ sniffles ] connie : [ babbling ] britt : nikolas , can you really forgive me ? nikolas : did n't i just do that ? britt : i do n't know . did you ? that kiss made everything a little fuzzy . nikolas : oh . there 's nothing more that we need to talk about , okay ? i 'm not going anywhere ... and i hope that you are n't , either . all i want is just to be with you right now , okay ? dante : if westbourne took the embryos because maxie wanted to be reimplanted , maybe she knows what happened to them . singer : and how do we , do we begin to see this now ? this now ? and how do we , do we hold on to what we 've found ? every breath you take in every fear you feel when torn apart out through your beating heart and how can we , can we begin to see this now ? this now ? it 's what we 've found it 's what we 've found sonny : now , if you 're done with your empty threats ... i 'm gon na have to ask you to leave . julian : [ sniffs ] [ sighs ] no , this is n't over . if carlos is n't returned soon , there will be blood to pay . sonny : yeah , i 'll take that into consideration . now get the hell out of here . duke : that was interesting . sonny : you heard all that ? duke : yeah , i did , including the threat to anna . you can forget what i said before . sonny : what are you saying ? duke : i 'm saying i 'm in . let 's take that bastard down together . britt : [ chuckles softly ] nikolas : mm . britt : [ sighs ] wow . is this real ? like , i 'm here with you right now ? like , this is really happening ? nikolas : you need me to pinch you ? britt : no , do n't . i do n't want to wake up . ow ! [ both laugh ] nikolas : now you know , right ? britt : so , we 're really doing this , full steam ahead ? nikolas : yeah . is that okay with you ? britt : it 's more than okay . it 's just a little scary . nikolas : well , there 's nothing to be afraid of . we have each other now . and there 's nothing left to rip us apart . [ cell phone chimes ] dante : yeah , dr. westbourne . this is detective dante falconeri calling you with an urgent matter . if you would please return my call as soon as possible , it would be greatly appreciated . thank you . ellie : hey , you should check with brad . as lab manager , he also has access , and he is , or at least he was , britt 's lackey . lulu : thank you . we really appreciate your help . ellie : i just wish i could do more . but i have to leave to catch a flight . lulu : oh , right . ellie : if i can be of any help in tracking down these embryos -- if you remember something or you just want to ask a question -- i 'll just be a phone call away . lulu : thank you . [ sighs ] take care of that little girl . tell spinelli that we say good luck . ellie : yeah , i 'll do that . you guys take care . lulu : thanks . dante : you , too . lulu : what do we do now ? dante : get to the bottom of this . spinelli : that was nice . maxie : it was , as far as goodbye kisses go . that 's what it was , was n't it ? well , if a kiss could n't steal you back , then ellie must really have your heart . spinelli : [ chuckles ] maxie : it 's crazy to think about after ... everything that we 've been through , we 're just ... what might have been . you and ellie are what should be . spinelli : you 'll always have a piece of my heart , maxie ... and my friendship . maxie : how come you never pay any attention to me ? do n't you like me ? spinelli : i do n't think i 'm your type . maxie : i 'm just hoping if i 'm ever in trouble , you 'd be willing to help me out . singer : it started out familiar we 'd been here before it started out much clearer maxie : you 're much too good a person to waste yourself on me . spinelli : i have never seen you more brave or more beautiful than you are today . singer : i did n't think we i did n't think we did n't think we 'd gone this far maxie : spinelli , i ca n't think of anyone i 'd rather start the new year with . singer : ... our way we lost our way this time for sure we lost our way ca n't really say what we were looking for spinelli : so , my fairest maximista , will you marry me ? singer : all that was understood maxie : damian spinelli , you are and always will be my essential person . singer : i did n't think we 'd gone this far spinelli : maxie , your feelings are mercurial on a good day , but i 'm sure -- maxie : i love you . singer : we lost our way maxie : i 'm in love with you . singer : we lost our way spinelli : is that -- is that the wee one ? [ chuckles ] can you imagine little yous and mes running around port charles ? singer : what were we maxie : do n't forget about me , spinelli . spinelli : i could n't if i tried . singer : what were we looking for ? spinelli : [ sniffles ] duke : you 're probably right . from what i just witnessed , jerome wo n't be stopped until somebody stops him . sonny : i knew i could count on you , lavery . whoa , whoa . wait , wait . what about anna ? duke : i just heard what he said . anna wo n't be safe until he 's stopped . what anna does n't know about my life -- it wo n't hurt her . anna : robert , call me when you get this . obrecht tried grilling me about faison . i mean , i did n't tell her anything , obviously , but she still was trying to call my bluff . you know , no matter what happens ... this secret goes with us to our grave , okay ? brad : you know , i did n't know it felt so good -- the whole doing nice things for people . felix : well , well , well . did brad cooper 's heart grow three times in size ? no , no , no , no . do n't even . [ both laugh ] dante : hey , felix . felix : hey . dante : mind if we have a few minutes with brad ? felix : uh , yeah , no problem . i got to change my clothes and get back to my shift . thanks again , grinch . brad : yeah , right . so , what can i do for you both ? lulu : you can tell us what you know about our missing embryos . brad : [ sighs ] [ ben crying on monitor ] nikolas : it 's okay . i 'll get it . i 'll get it . britt : no . nikolas : i 'll get it . britt : are you sure ? nikolas : yeah , i 'll get it . give me a chance to get some face time with the little guy . you get some rest . [ smooches ] britt : thank you . nikolas : you 're welcome . [ crying continues ] [ cell phone chimes ] britt : [ groans ] [ cell phone rings ] britt : hello ? dr. obrecht : hello , britta . it 's your mother . britt : what the hell do you want ? dr. obrecht : mind your tone . mutter needs your help . britt : and why would i help you ? dr. obrecht : because i know everything about your baby . ellie : damian ? spinelli : hey . maxie : ellie . spinelli : i was just -- ellie : it 's okay . sam said you 'd be here . spinelli : yeah . connie : [ babbling ] ellie : we should probably get going . our flight 's leaving soon . spinelli : of course . hey . okay . maxie : take good care of our daughter . spinelli : with all my heart . connie : [ crying ] spinelli : ohh . [ sighs ] maxie : spinelli ... spinelli : maxie ? maxie : i want to give you something . um ... these were mine and georgie 's when we were babies . i want our daughter to have them . spinelli : well , um ... keep one ... for when you celebrate christmas with georgie . [ sniffles ] goodbye , my maximista . maxie : [ crying ] | ellie discovers that dante and lulu 's frozen embryos are missing . she suggests that dr. westbourne might have moved them when maxie wanted to be implanted again . dante calls britt , but gets her voice mail . ellie suggests that they also ask brad since he is the lab manager . brad is standing for felix as an elf to visit the children 's wing because felix is standing in for spinelli . they almost kiss while they are changing into their costumes . britt tells nikolas that brad is n't really ben 's father . she says she desperately needed to be pregnant and could n't leave a record so she took something . he tells her that he wants to be with her regardless of what she has done . they make love . nikolas says they have each other now . nikolas volunteers to tend to ben when he cries , saying he wants to get some face time with him . britt checks her phone and sees the missed call from dante . dante and lulu stop brad in the hallway and asks him what he knows about their embryos . | <s>[INST] sonny : no , keep on carlos until we get to the bottom of the story . yeah , i 'll just check in with you later . [ sighs ] lavery . i did n't know you 'd get back to me so soon . duke : well , since you made your offer , i 've thought of little else . sonny : you and me together -- we will take down julian jerome 's empire -- his money , peace of mind . deal ? duke : it 's a good offer . but i ca n't accept it . officer : commissioner . anna : yeah ? officer : we delayed transfer of that prisoner to pentonville . she 's in interrogation 1 , just like you asked . anna : right . well , here we are again . maxie : what are you doing here ? spinelli : i wanted you to see your daughter . lulu : gone ? what do you mean , gone ? ellie : your embryos -- the ones we froze -- they 're missing . nikolas : the truth about ben ? what now ? what else have n't you told me ? britt : the other night , when i told you that brad was n't ben 's father , i was n't speaking metaphorically . he 's not my baby 's father . sonny : i mean , i get where you 're coming from . i just -- i 'm just a little disappointed 'cause i thought we 'd make a good team . duke : i have great respect for the way that you handle this territory . i remember when i managed it for the jeromes . i 'm very impressed how you 've managed to hold it together . sonny : i appreciate that , 'cause not very many people know what it 's like on the inside . duke : well , that 's why i 'm very conflicted by your offer . but , you see , if i accept , ultimately , it would put anna and me on opposite sides of the law , and that would spell the end for us . i 'm not prepared to lose her -- not after all i 've been through . dr. obrecht : what do you want from me , you schlampe ? you made your arrest . do you enjoy watching me rot in here ? anna : oh , i can assure you that i would prefer to be with almost anyone else right now . but , you know , if you cooperate , this will go fast . dr. obrecht : i am planning to write my memoirs , but i think i 'll stick to the laptop . anna : i 'd hate to stand in the way of what , no doubt , will be a magnificent manifesto , but this is not for your memoirs . dr. obrecht : i see . then do you want to play hangman ? anna : no . what i want you to do is to write in detail every lie you 've told , every law you 've broken , every person you have hurt over the past few years . dr. obrecht : and why should i do that ? anna : because it 's over , obrecht . we have got you dead to rights . so , the least you could do is try to avoid trial . we do n't want to waste all those good taxpayers ' dollars , do we ? and you 'd spare yourself , perhaps , a little more humiliation . hmm ? what are you waiting for ? ! start writing ! felix : there you are . i need you , and i need you now . brad : you have no idea how long i 've waited for you to say that . felix : what ? ! get your mind out of the gutter ! we have a real code blue down in pediatrics . brad : that -- that 's terrible , but i 'm not a doctor . i 'm just a lab tech . felix : i do n't need a doctor . i need an elf . brad : is this a joke ? felix : every year santa and his elf give presents to the kids down in pediatrics . last year , spinelli was santa . this year , i was supposed to be his elf , but spinelli canceled at the last minute , and now we 're in a real jam . brad : it sounds like you need a santa , then . felix : oh , no . i 'm santa . i 'm stepping in for spinelli . you need to step up for me . brad : whoa , whoa , whoa . wait -- wait a minute . felix : please , brad ? will you be my elf ? brad : [ sighs ] nikolas : brad 's not ben 's father ? britt : i can explain . britt : you got upset . nikolas : i got upset because i thought you were lying to me again . britt : i know , and that 's why i - i backpedaled . nikolas : by backpedaling , you mean lies ? is that what you mean ? britt : look , you have to understand . nikolas : no , i do n't . britt : you have to understand . my parents are finally out of our lives , okay ? we did n't have to lie about robin anymore . our kids were safe , and we got so close during all of that , i was afraid that if i told you the truth , that i could lose it all . nikolas : so , patrick is ben 's father ? britt : no . nikolas : no ? okay . this has got to stop right now . who is ben 's father ? lulu : how could the embryos not be there ? when we were prepping maxie , we made three . ellie : right , and one of the embryos was implanted into maxie , but the other two should be in cold storage . dante : okay . so , if they 've been moved , there should be some kind of record of it , right ? ellie : i checked . the records indicate that the embryos are still there , but they 're not in their corresponding slots in the facility . i mean , it does n't make any sense . dante : well , if they 're not where they 're supposed to be , where could they have gone ? nikolas : britt , the only way we can deal with whatever this is ... is if i you tell me the truth . now , who is ben 's father ? britt : [ sighs ] [ crying ] okay . i 'll [ sighs ] i 'll tell you everything . but i just need you to know that i was desperate to get pregnant , so i needed to do it in a hurry , and i needed patrick to believe that it was his , so i - i went to the g.h . lab , and i took something that did n't belong to me . ellie : honestly , i have no idea where your embryos could be . dante : you said they were n't in the right slot . could someone have put them back in the wrong place ? ellie : no . i - i checked the lab . a digital scan indicates that all of the occupied slots are filled by their corresponding embryos . i looked everywhere . there 's no sign of them , and there 's no record that they 've been moved . lulu : i ca n't believe this is happening . dante : okay , look , can you just run us through -- what is standard procedure for this stuff ? ellie : okay . everything that comes in to the cold storage must be catalogued . nothing can be removed or used without it being signed out . see ? right here is where i logged in the three active embryos , and the only entry was on december 20th of last year , when one of them was implanted in maxie . spinelli : come on , maxie ! open the door ! maxie : i ca n't . spinelli : you 're just gon na let me and the baby stand out here in the hallway ? maxie : spinelli , just go home , okay ? you know better than anyone that if i see our daughter , i will go to jail and you will lose custody . spinelli : all right , that 's just a risk we 're gon na have to take . but , maxie , if you do n't -- if you do n't see her now , you wo n't get a chance to say goodbye . we just found out a few hours ago ellie and i are leaving town tonight , so if you do n't open the door and see this little girl , we 'll both regret it the rest of our lives . maxie : you 're leaving ? spinelli : uh ... things at the lab in portland are moving ahead at an accelerated pace . they need ellie to start tomorrow . maxie : i thought we would , um , have more time . spinelli : so did i . here . you -- you should hold her . maxie : no . i ca n't . spinelli : i wo n't tell anyone if you wo n't . dante : is it possible all three embryos were removed when the first one was signed out ? ellie : no . cold storage ca n't be opened without the attending technician signing in , and -- and that was me . lulu : so , you 're the one who removed our embryos . dante : are you the one who put them back ? ellie : yes , but i can assure you that i did n't do anything -- dante : no , i 'm not implying you did anything wrong . i 'm just trying to find out if anyone else has access to the lab . ellie : no -- no one . except maxie 's attending physician could have overridden our procedures during off hours for emergencies . lulu : britt westbourne . nikolas : what did you take from the lab , britt ? please , will you just tell me ? britt : [ sniffles ] i took a sample from the hospital sperm bank . nikolas : uh ... o - okay . britt : brad knew , so he agreed to say that he was the baby 's father to protect me , and that 's why there 's never been any connection with him and the baby -- 'cause there is n't one . nikolas : right . uh [ sighs ] i just -- i guess i do n't understand why you needed to involve brad at all . i mean , once you told patrick that he was n't the father , why not just tell him the truth ? britt : oh , nikolas , i mean , even a doctor ca n't walk into a sperm bank and walk out with a sample . i mean , there 's procedures and protocols . nikolas : and you sidestepped those ? britt : i was supposed to be having patrick 's baby , so i could n't have there be any record . so i took something that a stranger donated to the bank . i mean , i broke the law . so , i - i had to lie . i 'm so sorry . can you forgive me ? dr. obrecht : there . anna : that was quick . catchy title , yeah . i ca n't wait to read the rest . dr. obrecht : i may be a guest in this country , commissioner devane , as you once were . but i am still entitled to my phone call . anna : by all means , yeah . but , um , who 's left for you to call ? dr. obrecht : why , faison , of course . sonny : anna 's a hell of a woman . you got to do what you got to do to hold on to her . duke : that 's why i have to walk away from this fight . i despise julian jerome , but if i sacrifice my life with anna , a life that i 've waited a quarter of a century to get back , just to bring down julian jerome , he still wins . sonny : and nothing 's worth that . duke : good luck , sonny . i wish you every success , and i hope the jeromes get everything they deserve . sonny : [ grunts ] julian : corinthos ! felix : put this on . it 's my elf costume . brad : [ groans ] you know , fee , when i said i wanted to get into your pants , this was n't what i had in mind . felix : no one wants to know what 's going on in your mind . brad : all right . felix : what are you doing ? brad : the kids are expecting us in a few minutes . you really want to be late because you 're too much of a prude to change in front of me ? felix : there 's no prudes here . maxie : so , the people at ellie 's lab -- they can just force her to come tonight ? spinelli : they 've generously offered to provide last - minute transportation , as well as arranging for our remaining belongings to be sent . maxie : they 're sending people to pack up her stuff . how swanky . spinelli : mm . maxie : so , you 're leaving tonight , then ? spinelli : yeah , going straight to the airport . maxie : so , this is it . this is the last time i 'm gon na see her . spinelli : not forever . just for now . maxie : six months . right . spinelli : it 'll be over before you know it . maxie : she 's so beautiful . i ca n't believe how much she 's changed . i know people say that all the time , but it 's different when it 's your child . spinelli : it really becomes your own miracle . [ chuckles ] maxie : you know , i thought this before , but i see it even clearer now . she looks so much like her aunt georgie . spinelli : yeah , i see it , too . and that 's a good thing , i suppose ... as georgie is our baby 's namesake . maxie : what ? spinelli : yeah . i 've been thinking , and `` connie `` is a name special to dante and lulu 's family , but `` georgie `` -- it 's a name special to you . it 's special to both of us . and i 'd like that to be our daughter 's name if that 's okay with you . lulu : britt westbourne was our attending . she supervised maxie 's implantation . she had access to the embryos . dante : what would she do with them ? lulu : maxie told us that she wanted dr. westbourne to implant her with another embryo but then she could n't because maxie was already pregnant . ellie : and if maxie and dr. westbourne did n't want anyone to know , westbourne would have taken the embryos without putting it in the log . lulu : do you think this is really possible ? dante : there 's only one way to find out -- we ask her . nikolas : even if you were too blinded in the beginning to see that your plans for patrick were wrong , i mean , you had to have known at some point you were gon na have to come clean , at least with me , right ? britt : i did n't want to risk that . and then you reacted the way that you did . nikolas : well -- britt : i - i felt like i had to lie . nikolas : [ sighs ] britt : you 're the only person who 's ever been on my team , at least without me having to force someone to be . and after everything that i 've done , you have stayed by my side , and i did n't want that to change . nikolas : britt , britt , i am on your side , okay ? do n't you get that ? i 'm not going anywhere . we 've been through so much together and dealt with all of the -- crisis after crisis after -- and those experiences that connect people , you understand ? they connected us . but you 've got to stop lying to me , because the lies -- that 's the only way that you 're gon na lose me -- the only way . britt : i understand . nikolas : [ sighs ] britt : i guess i just -- i sometimes still get scared . nikolas : i - i - i know . [ sighs ] i know what you 've done ... and i - i have done some horrible things , too . horrible . but let me tell you something . i 'm right where i want to be right now , and i do n't need you to hide who you really are ... because that 's the person that i want to be with . anna : so , you want to talk to faison ? dr. obrecht : is that a problem ? anna : i just do n't know why -- why you 'd want to do that , why , after everything he 's done to you , why you 'd want to speak to him again . dr. obrecht : unlike you , my affections do not blow with the wind . one moment , it 's robert scorpio . the next , it 's duke lavery . anna : you 're right , you know ? i do seem to fall for men who do n't lock me up in catacombs for days on end . dr. obrecht : a mere fit of pique on dear cesar 's part . i can not expect you to understand . you are english and in law enforcement . what could you possibly know about love ? anna : why do n't you enlighten me ? dr. obrecht : well , when i fall in love ... anna : mm ? dr. obrecht : ... it is for life , beyond life and into eternity . and i wish to know how my cesar 's doing . i assume he 's been transferred back to steinmauer ? anna : it 's not possible for you to talk to faison . dr. obrecht : and why is that ? sonny : what 's with the gun ? you made this big show about going legit , or is media planning more cutthroat than i ever imagined ? julian : where 's carlos ? sonny : carlos ? carlos ? i do n't -- that does n't really ring a bell . julian : carlos rivera , my operations manager . he 's been missing for days . sonny : that 's too bad . good help is hard to find . julian : well , my sister suspected you were behind this . sonny : your sister ? you mean the tramp who 's shacking up with my son ? i would n't trust her judgment . julian : you know , i figured his romantic troubles were to blame for this , but now he 's been gone too long , and it 's not like carlos to disappear off the grid like this . sonny : you think i had something to do with it ? julian : you tell me where the hell he is ... or i 'm gon na take you out right here . julian : do not ... play games . where 's carlos ? sonny : you do n't want to play games ? put the gun down . you know you 're not gon na shoot me . julian : really ? sonny : yeah . julian : why is that ? sonny : because my driver , max , would blow your head off by the time you made it to the parking lot , and he would not let you live , for danny 's sake , so if you kill me , you 're signing your death warrant . julian : what if i 'm willing to risk it ? sonny : are you willing to risk a police investigation ? 'cause that 's what 's gon na happen if you kill me tonight or if i fall down and break my neck . you are gon na be at the top of the suspect list . the cops would love nothing more than to put your ass away . julian : oh , yeah , yeah , yeah . that 's right -- 'cause you think the cops are your friends because your big son is on the force , huh ? sonny : no , i think the cops are just tired of chasing me and they 'd love nothing more than to dismantle you . and you ca n't hide behind your fake i.d . as derek wells . julian : and who told you that , huh -- miss anna devane ? sonny : oh , yeah . you guys have a history , do n't you ? julian : oh , yeah . sonny : you and the police commissioner , right ? yeah , yeah . julian : you just give me a chance to settle my family 's scores , please . sonny : you think you got what it takes to take her down ? julian : let me tell you something -- i am not afraid of your allies in the p.c.p.d . , okay ? not anna devane , not your son , the detective . cops or not , i would n't think twice about taking out either one of them . anna : we 're unable to accommodate your request -- your demand -- at this time . dr. obrecht : why is not possible for me to contact cesar ? is he not at steinmauer ? anna : of course he is . yes . robert took him there himself . i 'd let you see the paperwork , but you do n't have the clearance . dr. obrecht : i 'm sure your robert scorpio signed the paperwork that claimed julian jerome was dead , but we both know that 's not true , do n't we ? anna : i do n't know what to tell you , obrecht . faison is locked up . dr. obrecht : then why ca n't i speak to him ? ! anna : because he broke out of a maximum - security prison . do you honestly think the authorities are gon na allow him to talk to the person who broke him out in the first place ? dr. obrecht : i want to talk to the bureaucrats at steinmauer myself . anna : why do you want to use your only phone call to try to contact an inmate who is in solitary confinement in a maximum - security prison ? knock yourself out . but when they reject your request , do n't come begging to make another call to someone who might actually be able to help you . dr. obrecht : you are so adamant that i not even attempt to contact cesar . is that because people will start to ask questions about where he really is and you 'll have to pay the price for what you 've done to him ? anna : your move . felix : we should , uh , get dressed . we do n't want to disappoint the kids . brad : we do n't ? no . of course we do n't . spinelli : you know , when i met you ... i thought you were the most beautiful girl i 'd ever seen . i pined after you for so long , and you never even knew i existed , yet , somehow , we became friends . maxie : spinelli , i have to tell you something , and i 'm sure you already know it , but i just -- i want to say it out loud . our friendship changed my life . even when i was at my worst , you saw the best in me . sometimes i think you were the only person to ever see any good in me . that 's because you knew how to bring out my best for the world to see . spinelli : you did the same for me . maxie : how ? [ sniffles ] spinelli : if i 'm any kind of man today , it 's because of you . i had my crushes in the past , but you were the first girl i truly loved ... and the first girl that made me believe that i was capable of being loved , that i could achieve the happiness that i saw in everyone else 's life and that i deserve that happiness just as much as anyone else . maxie : i loved you , too , spinelli , even though by the time i realized it , it was too late . i still love you . spinelli : i still love you , too . [ sniffles ] connie : [ babbling ] britt : nikolas , can you really forgive me ? nikolas : did n't i just do that ? britt : i do n't know . did you ? that kiss made everything a little fuzzy . nikolas : oh . there 's nothing more that we need to talk about , okay ? i 'm not going anywhere ... and i hope that you are n't , either . all i want is just to be with you right now , okay ? dante : if westbourne took the embryos because maxie wanted to be reimplanted , maybe she knows what happened to them . singer : and how do we , do we begin to see this now ? this now ? and how do we , do we hold on to what we 've found ? every breath you take in every fear you feel when torn apart out through your beating heart and how can we , can we begin to see this now ? this now ? it 's what we 've found it 's what we 've found sonny : now , if you 're done with your empty threats ... i 'm gon na have to ask you to leave . julian : [ sniffs ] [ sighs ] no , this is n't over . if carlos is n't returned soon , there will be blood to pay . sonny : yeah , i 'll take that into consideration . now get the hell out of here . duke : that was interesting . sonny : you heard all that ? duke : yeah , i did , including the threat to anna . you can forget what i said before . sonny : what are you saying ? duke : i 'm saying i 'm in . let 's take that bastard down together . britt : [ chuckles softly ] nikolas : mm . britt : [ sighs ] wow . is this real ? like , i 'm here with you right now ? like , this is really happening ? nikolas : you need me to pinch you ? britt : no , do n't . i do n't want to wake up . ow ! [ both laugh ] nikolas : now you know , right ? britt : so , we 're really doing this , full steam ahead ? nikolas : yeah . is that okay with you ? britt : it 's more than okay . it 's just a little scary . nikolas : well , there 's nothing to be afraid of . we have each other now . and there 's nothing left to rip us apart . [ cell phone chimes ] dante : yeah , dr. westbourne . this is detective dante falconeri calling you with an urgent matter . if you would please return my call as soon as possible , it would be greatly appreciated . thank you . ellie : hey , you should check with brad . as lab manager , he also has access , and he is , or at least he was , britt 's lackey . lulu : thank you . we really appreciate your help . ellie : i just wish i could do more . but i have to leave to catch a flight . lulu : oh , right . ellie : if i can be of any help in tracking down these embryos -- if you remember something or you just want to ask a question -- i 'll just be a phone call away . lulu : thank you .

[ chuckles ] can you imagine little yous and mes running around port charles ? singer : what were we maxie : do n't forget about me , spinelli . spinelli : i could n't if i tried . singer : what were we looking for ? spinelli : [ sniffles ] duke : you 're probably right . from what i just witnessed , jerome wo n't be stopped until somebody stops him . sonny : i knew i could count on you , lavery . whoa , whoa . wait , wait . what about anna ? duke : i just heard what he said . anna wo n't be safe until he 's stopped . what anna does n't know about my life -- it wo n't hurt her . anna : robert , call me when you get this . obrecht tried grilling me about faison . i mean , i did n't tell her anything , obviously , but she still was trying to call my bluff . you know , no matter what happens ... this secret goes with us to our grave , okay ? brad : you know , i did n't know it felt so good -- the whole doing nice things for people . felix : well , well , well . did brad cooper 's heart grow three times in size ? no , no , no , no . do n't even . [ both laugh ] dante : hey , felix . felix : hey . dante : mind if we have a few minutes with brad ? felix : uh , yeah , no problem . i got to change my clothes and get back to my shift . thanks again , grinch . brad : yeah , right . so , what can i do for you both ? lulu : you can tell us what you know about our missing embryos . brad : [ sighs ] [ ben crying on monitor ] nikolas : it 's okay . i 'll get it . i 'll get it . britt : no . nikolas : i 'll get it . britt : are you sure ? nikolas : yeah , i 'll get it . give me a chance to get some face time with the little guy . you get some rest .

phillip : ( panting ) gus : well , that 's not too shabby . not too shabby at all . phillip : what , are you clocking me ? gus : kind of . unofficially , of course . phillip : what are you doing here ? gus : i called to find you and your secretary said that you went for a jog . and i was ... i was blown away , actually . phillip : surprised i took your advice ? gus : it 's good . this is what i ... if it was up to me , i 'd like to see you do this a little more often . phillip : no , man . you were right . you were so right . i forgot how much better it makes you feel . gus : yeah . see ? that 's good . phillip : it 's been a long time since i did ... you know , just all the stuff with lizzie and then the stuff with olivia and the baby , i was trying to deal ... i could n't deal with each thing , so i was trying to deal with it all together . gus : you 're doing ... phillip : yeah . gus : i thought you were in better shape than this , but you 'll catch up . and look at you . you 're doing great . you do n't have a cell phone . you do n't have a beeper . and look at your new designer sneaks . are n't those nice ? phillip : yeah . you like these ? gus : uh - huh . phillip : they 're hurting me . i 'm still trying to break these things in . gus : break those suckers in . phillip : so , what 's up ? you did n't come down here to look at my shoes . gus : no , no . i 'm working a case , you know ? phillip : what 's that got to do with me ? gus : well , i was kind of hoping that you could tell me that . harley : hey , i 'm here . did you order me one ? blake : i 'm not getting any younger . harley : i 'm only , like , what ? ten minutes late ? i 'm sorry , cranky . blake : you know , there 's nothing in the harley 's angels handbook that says we have to be sunshine and smiles all the time . harley : we have a handbook ? blake : okay , just tell me what 's going on . harley : okay , well , i talked to brenda jenson today . blake : how is she ? harley : she is as you would expect anyone to be who does n't know where her daughter is . and she 's convinced that brad green is involved because lori and brad were involved . blake : speaking of brad green , i have tried to get to him , the usual channels , but ... harley : i knew i should have handled that . did n't i say to you , `` let me handle it ? did you hit a wall ? `` blake : a big one , yes . the people who man the phones at spaulding , not nice people . and they do n't give straight answers . harley : well , do n't tell me you 're surprised , blake . i mean , alan is practically running a med school for spin doctors over there . blake : yeah , well . we just have to get creative . got any ideas ? harley ? harley : i 've got a bad feeling . blake : you 're not pregnant , are you ? harley : oh , please . blake : well , could you just be more specific , then ? harley : see , i only took this case so that i could help gus help alan . because i do n't care about helping alan ; gus cares about helping alan . i only care about helping gus . blake : right . harley : so what if ... what if this case makes me ask questions that alan does n't want me to ask ? questions that could end up hurting him ? blake : and that would end up hurting gus . harley : exactly . blake : okay . um , well , you know , honey ? you knew that coming into it . harley : well , it 's a little late to get out of it . tony : what are you doing here ? marah : i was just leaving . nico : no , no . no , she was n't . she just said she was going to stay for ... danny : nico . jenny : hi . i 'm jenny . nico : hi . i 'm nico . nico castano . it 's a pleasure to meet you . marah : i 've got to go . danny : marah , please . i want you to stay for dinner . trust me . they 're not staying , okay ? tony : nico , why do n't you do me a favor and give jenny here a ride home . i 'll make it up to you , okay ? jenny : um , okay . nico : the keys , please ? after you , my lady . tony : that kid 's something else , huh ? danny : i 'm going to go get robbie ready for dinner . tony : ( sighs ) marah , look , that was n't what it looked like . marah : yeah . yeah , it was . you know what , tony ? it 's okay . you do n't have to explain anything to me . this is your cousin 's house . you can bring home whoever you want . besides , it 's not like we 're together anymore . you know what ? you need to stop doing this to me . blake : this is not a problem . we will just drop the case . harley : harley 's angels do not drop cases . blake : no , but if it 's going to mess things up between you and gus ... harley : blake , what kind of an agency are we running if we take cases and then the next minute , we drop them ? i mean , we 'll be out of business before mel 's out of her second trimester . blake : you know , lori jenson disappeared a couple of days ago , which means , according to springfield pd , she is now a missing person . harley : so ? blake : so that means gus may already be on the case . harley : great . then we 'll be on the same track . blake : no . you 'll be on separate , parallel tracks . harley : is this some sort of , `` if train ' a ' is going somewhere and train ' b ' ... `` blake : all i 'm saying is you might be willing to share , but gus may not . harley : are you suggesting that gus would withhold important police information in order to protect alan 's company ? blake : not on purpose . but , you know , family ties , they 're kind of funny and this one 's brand spanking new , right out of the oven . honey , i just do n't want to see you get burned . gus : do you recognize this girl ? phillip : uh - uh . should i ? gus : well , she works for spaulding enterprises . her name is lori . lori jenson . ring a bell ? phillip : no . and she may , gus , but you know , it 's an international conglomerate . i do n't know everybody by face or name . why ? gus : well , she 's missing . she works for an executive at spaulding named brad green . you know that guy ? phillip : why ? gus : why ? phillip : yeah . gus : that 's a yes . do n't do that to me , please , okay ? i just told you i know she works for spaulding , so obviously i know . phillip : are you saying that he 's involved in it somehow ? gus : no , i 'm not saying anything . i 'm just asking you , do you know this guy , brad green ? do you know this guy ? phillip : yeah . yes , i know him . i do n't know him very well . gus : thank you . phillip : he works for spaulding . he 's a guy that alan hired a few years ago out of the springfield office and he got transferred to paris headquarters . gus : paris ? phillip : yeah . gus : mm - hmm . i see . why is that ? why 'd he get transferred ? phillip : well , he got transferred over there to work in the pharmaceutical division . and he 's good . he did wonders with the division over there , and i guess that 's why alex brought him back , to help the division here . gus : pharmaceutical division . you do n't deal with that division very much ? phillip : uh , no . it 's been fairly autonomous up until now . i 've been thinking about getting more involved in it . why ? come on , please , take off the detective hat for a second here and tell me how ... you think this guy 's involved ? gus : fine . okay . the mother of this girl seems to think that brad green had an affair , he seduced this girl , okay ? and when she wanted out , he could n't handle it . but alan , on the other hand , seems to think that he was the one that messed up , this brad green , she could n't handle it and she took off . phillip : well , then where is she ? gus : i do n't know where she is . phillip : if that 's the case ... gus : that is the case . it 's the case . i just do n't know where she is . maybe she 's on vacation . maybe she 's with some other guy . i just do n't know . phillip : yeah , but that 's not why you 're here . maybe somebody helped her disappear before she went public and embarrassed him . gus : well , i do n't know . all that 's speculation right now . i have no idea . phillip : ( sighs ) okay . is there anything i can do to help ? gus : you know , yeah . you should work on your time . shave some time ... phillip : no , come on . look , i 'm fine . i 'm serious . i 'm serious . gus : it 's me , man . i do n't even know if i should be bothering you . there 's the whole thing that we talked about , taking it easy ... phillip : you 're not bothering me . gus : if there 's something i need or something , or something happens , i 'll call you . you 've got my word . in fact , how can i call you , right ? because the new , improved phillip spaulding does n't come with a cell phone . but that 's good , man . more aerodynamic . you do n't want weight , you know , bogging you down when you 're sprinting for the finish line . just keep it up . you 're doing good . phillip : do n't worry , i 've got plenty bogging me down . gus : take it easy , bro ! phillip : yeah . deb , it 's me . call down to human resources and get me the file on brad green . brad : well , thanks again for delivering that paper on our new cholesterol blocker , dr . bauer . everyone at spaulding pharmaceuticals is anticipating fda approval and i think your paper might have just done the trick . ed : it 's no real trick , mr . green . i would n't be endorsing the new protocol if i did n't believe in it . but i will tell you , i 'm going to stick with my recommendation of a lower dosage . the dosage that spaulding is pushing is way too risky . brad : well , you know , as they say , `` no pain , no gain . `` ( chuckles ) the important thing in the end , doctor , is saving lives , is n't it ? alexandra : well , i 'll second that for sure . brad . brad : alexandra . alexandra : ed , how is shayne lewis doing ? ed : he 's hanging in there . he 's a tough kid . if anyone can get through this . alexandra : oh , i hope so . well , you give him my best , will you ? he 's a friend of lizzie 's . brad . brad : you know , i do n't know the lewis boy personally , but i have seen him pitch . it 's a shame . that kid 's really major league . alexandra : yes , well , i think his parents are more concerned about whether or not their son will walk again right now . brad : ah , yes . the parents . my heart goes out to them . alexandra : as does mine . as it does to any parent worried about their child . for instance , lori jenson 's mother . brad : has that woman been spreading lies about me again ? i swear , alexandra ... alexandra : brad . brad , i 'm only going to ask you this once : where is the jenson girl ? tony : i did n't know that you were going to be here . ( sighs ) all right , look , maybe it 's better this way , okay ? you were bound to see me ... you were going to see me with somebody else sooner or later . marah : yeah , or you 'd see me with someone else . tony : you met someone ? marah : what do you care ? tony : i do care . i want you to be with someone , a guy that treats you right . marah : oh , no , no . no . you do n't get a say in who i date or how he treats me . if i want to go marry some rock star and run off to jamaica , or i want to go entertain guys down at the firehouse or get a little extra credit after school from my professor , that is my business . you lost your vote ! and you know what ? i was still holding out hope that you were the guy i thought you were . but you know what , tony ? you were right this whole time . i deserve so much better than you . good night , danny . danny : okay , come on . you want to play with some toys before dinner ? tony : well , i guess you heard that , huh ? look , danny , i do n't want one of your lectures right now , so just save it , okay ? danny : tony , you are throwing away the best thing that ever happened to you and you 're not going anywhere until you tell me why . harley : look , i do n't know what kind of `` do n't ask , do n't tell `` kind of thing you and ross have , but gus and me , we do n't keep things from each other . blake : ( gags ) harley : anymore . we do n't anymore . blake : all right . but now you are a pi and he 's a detective and you 're working two sides of the same street . the rules of the game have changed . harley : what game ? nobody is playing a game here . blake : do you know anything about soccer ? harley : soccer ? blake : yes , yes . okay , this is about soccer . in soccer , you have to keep the ball in bounds , right ? the minute it goes over the little white line , somebody 's got to kick that puppy back in . harley : or throw it back in . you can throw the ball back in . blake : okay , whatever . lori jenson needs to stay out of bounds . you and gus have enough going on inside the field , you know , already with the getting married and raising the boys and just figuring out who 's going to go grocery shopping for food this week . you keep that stuff with gus . you share that stuff in bounds , and the lori jenson out of bounds . gus : hey . i hear somebody talking some shop . harley : guilty . gus : right . well , i actually came to tell you about the lori jenson case . she 's now officially a missing person . blake : no kidding . so , who 's the lead detective on the case ? gus : you 're looking at him . blake : wow . very busy , got to go . picking up the twins , you know ? soccer practice . gus : what 's the matter with her ? harley : she 's just a little frazzled . we 've been working really hard on this jenson case . gus : oh . is that right ? well , you 're both going to be relieved then , because now that i 'm heading up the investigation , you 're both off the case . harley : like hell we are . brad : so you tracked me down here because some crazy , hysterical woman insists on crying wolf . come on , alexandra . you know me . alexandra : brad , i do indeed . and that `` crazy , hysterical woman `` comment only paints a clearer picture . brad : now , i resent that . i have a wife , i have daughters and i have always been very concerned with women 's issues as far as ... alexandra : come on . brad : ... spaulding pharmaceuticals is concerned . alexandra : no , no , no . come on , come on , brad . do n't read me your bio . just tell me where the jenson girl is . brad : i do n't know . i told alan already . the poor girl came on to me and ( sighs ) i could n't help myself . i 'm not proud of it , alexandra . and i tried to end the affair with lori as quickly as i could , but is it my fault the girl could n't let go ? who knows where she ran off to ? alexandra : i have n't forgotten paris . brad : well , i should hope not . it 's my corporate successes in paris that led you to bring me here . alexandra : brad , i mean i have n't forgotten the woman in paris . brad : alexandra . alexandra : no , no , no . you know , your little indiscretions have cost this company a small fortune , brad . i 've covered your derriere once . i will not do it again . brad : i have big plans for the pharmaceutical division . now , i 'm sure you would n't want to derail all the wonderful progress that spaulding enterprises has made . alexandra : are you threatening me ? brad : of course not . you have been so good to me , alexandra , trusted me with so many secrets . alexandra : you are threatening me . brad : all i 'm saying is , do n't make me do something i do n't want to do . alexandra : likewise . ed : you could have walked away from this whole thing . you could have drowned your troubles in any number of ways , but you did n't . you know , whatever it is that brought you and shayne here , it does n't matter . the only thing that matters is that you 're here for him now . that 's what counts . marah : how is he ? josh : he 's resting . marah : that 's good . he needs his rest . josh : he 's going to recover from this , marah . i wo n't rest until he does . marah : daddies can fix anything , right ? remember when you used to tell us that when we were little ? whatever 's broken , whatever 's hurt . josh : it 's going to be okay , darling . marah : it 's not just that . dad , i loved him so much . ( sniffles ) tony : look , marah and i , we 're finished , because she is allowed to see other people and so am i. i am sorry that i ruined your santos - lewis alliance . danny : oh , knock it off , will you ? tony , marah ... tony : what ? danny : no , you know what ? forget it , because you 're not going to take anything i say seriously , are you ? tony : just go ahead . what ? danny : marah is good for you , tony . she 's good for your soul . tony : you know who you sound like right now ? danny : yeah , i do , and ray agrees with me . tony : well , did it ever occur to you and ray that maybe i do n't have a soul ? i mean , where the hell is it , danny ? what good has it done me ? what the ... danny : hey . ( whispers ) your godson is right over there . why do n't you try setting an example for a change ? all right , wait . just ... i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry . that was uncalled for . just come on . come on . hang around , have some dinner , will you please ? tony : you 've got to be kidding me . ( laughs ) danny : i 'm mad at you , you 're mad at me . we can either just start throwing the furniture around or we can try to have this family dinner that michelle is so big on . come on . i 'll give it a shot if you 'll give it a shot . we do n't have to get all `` kumbayah `` or anything ; it 's just dinner . okay ? nico : all right . the babe has been delivered . so , anything else on your to - do list , boss ? danny : yeah . grab a chair , nico , we 're having dinner . tony : ( groans ) nico : really ? all of us breaking bread ? tony : ha ! or breaking necks , whatever comes first . danny : good stuff . well , ray could n't be here tonight but i think before we start , i know he 'd really want us to say grace , so ... nico : grace . what ? danny : nothing . no , that 's fine . okay . grace . so , nico , why do n't you tell us something about yourself ? nico : what do you want to know ? danny : anything . anything . nico : um , well , i like chicken . tony : this is too much . danny : nico , how about something real ? something ... like , i heard you sing , you 're really good . why do n't you tell us about that ? nico : yeah , well , i really was n't into school and it 's not like a had a whole lot of options . danny : right , but when you have them , you should n't blow them , right ? nico : yeah , whatever . like i said , i did n't have any . so , music became my thing . you know , i guess i used that to drown out the real world . tony : well , sometimes you need to drown things out , like when they 're way out of line . nico : yeah , i guess . danny : i just want to see you make something out of your life . tony : no , you just want to make me into you . nico : so anyways , like ... tony : i ca n't be you , danny . i ca n't hold on to people like you do . danny : you can try . nico : do they do this all the time ? tony : danny , it 's time for you to just give up . it 's too late for me . nico : right . like you gave up on marah ? tony : enough about marah already ! tony : you 're hurting marah , you 're hurting yourself . you want to hurt me too , tony ? go ahead . you 're batting a thousand , are n't you ? go ahead . ( tapping glass ) nico : he loves martha . danny : what ? nico : the blonde girl . tony : it 's marah . nico : whatever . that 's why you brought that other girl over here , right , man ? come on . even i 've pulled that one before . not with that girl , but with another one . you guys know what i mean , right ? danny : no , we do n't . nico : he found out blondie was going to be here and he wanted her to see him with another chick . that whole show ? it was all for her . alexandra : phillip ! phillip : aunt alex . i 'm so glad you could make it . alexandra : well , from the sound of your message , the invitation did n't sound exactly optional . would you please why i 'm being summoned in here ? phillip : i thought maybe you could use some fresh air , get a nice view . please , sit . alexandra : thank you . phillip : i think you need to get out of the office a little more . helps to give you perspective . alexandra : and what are you doing , jogging ? phillip : yeah , i was . alexandra : really ? who are you ? phillip : i 'm a new man . thanks to some advice from my new brother . alexandra : oh , your brother gus . phillip : mm - hmm . alexandra : that 's why you 're chasing your nose around the lake , huh ? why does n't that surprise me ? listen , darling , the next time you want to see me or summon me somewhere , why do n't you make a reservation at even a cheap little restaurant , okay ? phillip : i thought that you 'd prefer to discuss business out here where we 'd have a little privacy . alexandra : you want to discuss business here ? phillip : yeah . aunt alex , you 've been running the pharmaceutical and cosmetic division in europe for some time now , and since you 've been running the division back here , i do n't know , i get the feeling like it 's really become your baby . almost as important to you as family . alexandra : uh - huh . almost . phillip : so i just wanted to ask you , why would you leave your baby in the hands of a man who may have seduced a fellow colleague and then made her disappear ? i just had this delivered from someone in human resources . why do n't you take a good , long look at it ? i think you 're going to find it a fascinating read . gus : you 're off the hook . you should be happy . you and the rest of the little angels , the harley 's angels , can go and work on other cases . harley : can we just forget for just a minute here that we share a bed ? gus : what ? what are you ... ? harley : what i 'm saying to you is , i love you , i know you love me , whatever . i would like you to treat me with the same respect you would treat any other pi who 's working the same case as you . gus : this is different . this is different . i love you , you love me . it 's like barney . i put you on the case . i can take you off the case . harley : okay , maybe you put me on the case , but you 're not the one keeping me on the case . that would be brenda jenson . gus : oh , so what are you telling me ? what , are you working for the mother now ? harley : she hired me today . gus : are you crazy ? you can't ... did it ever occur to you that maybe the mother and daughter are working together to sort of extort money out of alan ? is that possible ? or out of the company itself ? harley : did it ever occur to you that spaulding enterprises is painting an innocent young woman as a sexual predator who had it coming ? gus : excuse me , do you have any proof that something happened to lori ? harley : do you have any proof that something did n't ? gus : are you doing this just to stick it to alan , just to stick it to the spauldings ? harley : are you doing it just to clear them ? gus : are you going to answer every single question that i have with another question ? i 'm trying to do my job . harley : well , i 'm trying to do my job , here , too , okay ? and i think i can do it a lot better and a lot faster than the springfield police department can . gus : oh , is that a fact ? harley : it 's a fact . gus : yeah ? can you back that up ? alexandra : brad green happens to be one of our most effective and forceful employees . he 's also a dedicated husband and father ... phillip : wow , somebody 's been reading his bio . i can only guess that it 's his wonderful qualities that inspired you to give him a 20- year contract . 20 years , guaranteed ! i 've never seen a contract like that , until i opened up his file . alexandra : and i 'll tell you something , phillip : the man happens to be a marketing genius . he turned around the european pharmaceutical division , he boosted profits , and if i had n't hired him , another competitive firm would have . phillip : i 'm telling you right now , if there 's another reason -- i do n't care what it is -- but if there is another reason why you gave brad green the mother of all sweetheart deals , you better tell me now . do n't let gus tell me and do n't let me find out for myself . you hear me ? tell me now . alexandra : no , phillip , there is no other reason . now , listen , things have been running very smoothly since you 've been at the helm of spaulding . now , do n't let gus muddy up the waters . phillip : you lay off gus ! gus is the only person in this damn family who will give anybody a straight answer . alexandra : ( laughs ) phillip : he actually helped me get my priorities straight . alexandra : your priorities ? phillip : i have a baby on the way . i may have a wedding on the way . how do you like that ? alexandra : ( laughs bitterly ) phillip : yeah , i thought that would make you happy . but do n't worry , i 'll make sure you 're invited . who knows ? maybe olivia will throw you the bouquet . alexandra : oh . danny : tony , was that what that was all about ? you wanted marah to see you with another girl ? tony : this kid does n't know what he 's talking about . nico : hey , i 'm pretty impressed . first , you found out blondie was going to be over here and then you bagged the first chick you see , you get her to come over before blondie left ? i do n't know how you pulled that one off , man . you work pretty quick . danny : i mean , what is wrong with you ? going to all that trouble just to give marah the wrong idea . tony : it was n't the wrong idea , danny . it was the right idea . if it was jenny the waitress , it would have been someone else some other night . danny : right , right . and what about when you see marah out with another guy ? tony : then i will hate it . i 'll want to kick his teeth in . all right , but what does that tell you about me ? the way i handle things is no good for marah , so if she hates me right now , so what ? she 'll get over it . she 'll move on . nico : like i said , he loves her . tony : you know what ? i ca n't deal with this ... danny : tony , come on . tony : no , i 've got to go , i 've got to ... danny : eat your dinner . finish your dinner ! tony . nico : so , the family dinner thing ? same time tomorrow ? josh : so , i guess daddy ca n't fix this one , huh ? i 'm sorry , i wish i could . marah : i know . i guess some things just ca n't be fixed . but i 'd rather focus my energy on the things that can . josh : like ? marah : like shayne getting better . like you and mom working things out . josh : i do n't want you worrying about your mom and me . marah : you guys are both so stubborn . josh : marah . marah : i guess that 's where i get it from . i ... i could talk to mom . josh : i know you want to help us and i know you want to help your brother and you want to save tony and you want to save the world , but marah , you have to take care of yourself , too . you have to find some kind of a balance . marah : like shayne was trying to do ? josh : shayne wanted it all . he wanted baseball , family and friends and love , and he deserved it all . and if i had ... my point is that he deserved it all , and so do you . so try to stay focused on your design work and on your school and your friends . i know you 're upset about tony . marah : can we not say his name , please ? we were just getting some positive vibes going . josh : okay . i just want to hug him right now . hug my son and feel him hugging me back . marah : you will , dad . i can hold you over in the meantime . brad : thanks again , ed . as a new member of the hospital board , i look forward to doing business with you . i 'm sure we 'll make a great team . ed : we 'll see . blake : oh ! brad ? brad : excuse me . blake : brad green . brad : uh , yes . blake : peggy neidermeyer . st. olaf 's college ? northfield , minnesota ? brad : ( laughs ) blake : oh , come on , brad . you must remember me . brad : uh ... brad : peggy neidermoyer . blake : neidermeyer . brad : oh , yes , neidermeyer . blake : oh , brad , i ca n't believe you forgot me . ( laughs ) brad : now , who could forget such a pretty face . blake : why , are you ... are you flirting with me ? are you ? brad : ( laughs ) blake : because i read in the alumni magazine that you were happily married with kids . brad : guilty . blake : yeah . but it did n't tell that you were living in springfield , mister . brad : well , i 've been in europe for several years . blake : well , fancy you . i bet you have stories to tell . brad : oh , not really . blake : oh , come on . i 'll buy you a cup of coffee and you can tell me all about your world travels . brad : you know what ? can i take a raincheck ? really ... blake : okay . tomorrow . how 's that ? brad : except i 'm booked . i 've been swamped at the office . blake : well , fine . i 'll pop in . brad : spaulding is not really big on `` popping . `` ( laughs ) blake : you are a hard man to nail down , brad green . brad : i guess so . blake : but hey , listen , i 'm going to be in touch , all right ? because i want to know what you 're been up to . and i 'm going to find out . you can count on it . harley : i can not believe you . a girl is missing and you 're going to reduce this to a bet ? gus : i 'm not an idiot , okay ? i know that the life is the most important thing , a human life , that is the highest stake . i 'm simply saying we make a little side bet . it 's a lower stake , and what that does is that inspires us to find the girl . just like that , everybody 's happy . harley : fine , what do you have in mind ? gus : all right . for starters , i 'd let you stay on the investigation . harley : oh , like i need your permission . gus : and i do my job as the lead investigator of the springfield police department , i 'm doing my job , and whoever finds the girl first wins . harley : let 's talk prizes . gus : all right . prizes . first of all , i 'm not going to break up with you . secondly ... harley : ooh . gus : secondly , we get the satisfaction of cracking the case . harley : no , not good enough . gus : no ? harley : no . if harley 's angels cracks the case first , you give me ... let me see ... a spa weekend . all of us . and you get to keep the kids . gus : all of you . so that 's you and your two partners , that 's three , plus the kids , that 's five . so now i 'm responsible for five children . what do i get ? harley : you get a nice weekend fishing trip with alan . you guys are going to have so much fun . gus : what kind of present is that ? that 's a prize ? i 'm getting gypped . harley : too late , you shook . gus : ground rules . harley : ground rule number one , all 's fair in love and war and criminal investigations . gus : that 's lame ground rule number two , you just remember why we 're doing this , okay ? we need to find the girl , make everybody happy . that 's all we 're doing . harley : obviously . obviously . and ground rule number three , we 're not going to let any of this stuff going on interfere with any of this stuff going on , okay ? gus : quality control . i like it . ( gus harley ) : i got to make some calls . nico : so i guess we 're not really good at the talking thing , huh , boss ? danny : nope . i guess not . nico : robbie 's like two , right ? danny : two and a half . nico : man , that is a great age . no one ever expects to say it make any sense when you 're talking . i mean you could scream whenever you want and it 's accepted . not ... not like ... danny : tonight ? nico : hey , do you remember that thing i was talking about how music helps drowns stuff out ? danny : no , not really . nico : okay , well , i guess you guys really were n't listening . but music is great for drowning out silence , too . i mean , you know , sometimes when people talk and they 're not really saying anything , they just want to fill up the room , and it 's like they 're on auto pilot , you know , they 're like rambling on . it 's like they 're ... danny : like right now ? it 's okay , nico . it 's okay . why do n't you just pop in cd if you want ? it 's fine . nico : all right . hey , maybe ... maybe this will help you out . ( music playing ) to be completely honest it scares me to imagine what life would be without you and for this very reason i ask you to forgive me for what i 'm putting us through although there 's so many things to get since i 've decided that i 'm not giving you up oh , no , no no , i 'm not giving you up not give you up ... alexandra : next on `` guiding light . `` olivia : look , this is the only yes you 're going to get from me tonight . phillip : do n't be so sure . lizzie : all i have to do is say you seduced me up here and i could ruin your life just the way olivia ruined mine . this has been `` guiding light . `` | alex told brad that she had covered for him in paris , but would n't again . he said she had better watch herself , because he knows a lot of company secrets . gus was proud that phillip took time for himself to jog . he asked phillip if he knew the missing girl , or brad green . he said he knew of green , but did n't know him personally . he later checked green 's personnel file , and asked alex why she gave the man a 20-year guaranteed contract . gus tried to get harley to drop the jenson case since it was now a police matter , but she said she deserved the same respect as any other private investigator . they made a bet about who could solve the case first . blake pretended to be an old college buddy of brad 's to gain access to him . marah pretended that seeing tony with a date did n't bother her , but when he said he wants her to be happy , she said she is no longer his concern , and stormed out . she told josh she missed tony , but was going to concentrate on shayne ; she also said she hated how stubborn her parents were being . nico figured out that tony set it up for marah to see him with jenny . tony said marah would be better off if she hated him . | <s>[INST] phillip : ( panting ) gus : well , that 's not too shabby . not too shabby at all . phillip : what , are you clocking me ? gus : kind of . unofficially , of course . phillip : what are you doing here ? gus : i called to find you and your secretary said that you went for a jog . and i was ... i was blown away , actually . phillip : surprised i took your advice ? gus : it 's good . this is what i ... if it was up to me , i 'd like to see you do this a little more often . phillip : no , man . you were right . you were so right . i forgot how much better it makes you feel . gus : yeah . see ? that 's good . phillip : it 's been a long time since i did ... you know , just all the stuff with lizzie and then the stuff with olivia and the baby , i was trying to deal ... i could n't deal with each thing , so i was trying to deal with it all together . gus : you 're doing ... phillip : yeah . gus : i thought you were in better shape than this , but you 'll catch up . and look at you . you 're doing great . you do n't have a cell phone . you do n't have a beeper . and look at your new designer sneaks . are n't those nice ? phillip : yeah . you like these ? gus : uh - huh . phillip : they 're hurting me . i 'm still trying to break these things in . gus : break those suckers in . phillip : so , what 's up ? you did n't come down here to look at my shoes . gus : no , no . i 'm working a case , you know ? phillip : what 's that got to do with me ? gus : well , i was kind of hoping that you could tell me that . harley : hey , i 'm here . did you order me one ? blake : i 'm not getting any younger . harley : i 'm only , like , what ? ten minutes late ? i 'm sorry , cranky . blake : you know , there 's nothing in the harley 's angels handbook that says we have to be sunshine and smiles all the time . harley : we have a handbook ? blake : okay , just tell me what 's going on . harley : okay , well , i talked to brenda jenson today . blake : how is she ? harley : she is as you would expect anyone to be who does n't know where her daughter is . and she 's convinced that brad green is involved because lori and brad were involved . blake : speaking of brad green , i have tried to get to him , the usual channels , but ... harley : i knew i should have handled that . did n't i say to you , `` let me handle it ? did you hit a wall ? `` blake : a big one , yes . the people who man the phones at spaulding , not nice people . and they do n't give straight answers . harley : well , do n't tell me you 're surprised , blake . i mean , alan is practically running a med school for spin doctors over there . blake : yeah , well . we just have to get creative . got any ideas ? harley ? harley : i 've got a bad feeling . blake : you 're not pregnant , are you ? harley : oh , please . blake : well , could you just be more specific , then ? harley : see , i only took this case so that i could help gus help alan . because i do n't care about helping alan ; gus cares about helping alan . i only care about helping gus . blake : right . harley : so what if ... what if this case makes me ask questions that alan does n't want me to ask ? questions that could end up hurting him ? blake : and that would end up hurting gus . harley : exactly . blake : okay . um , well , you know , honey ? you knew that coming into it . harley : well , it 's a little late to get out of it . tony : what are you doing here ? marah : i was just leaving . nico : no , no . no , she was n't . she just said she was going to stay for ... danny : nico . jenny : hi . i 'm jenny . nico : hi . i 'm nico . nico castano . it 's a pleasure to meet you . marah : i 've got to go . danny : marah , please . i want you to stay for dinner . trust me . they 're not staying , okay ? tony : nico , why do n't you do me a favor and give jenny here a ride home . i 'll make it up to you , okay ? jenny : um , okay . nico : the keys , please ? after you , my lady . tony : that kid 's something else , huh ? danny : i 'm going to go get robbie ready for dinner . tony : ( sighs ) marah , look , that was n't what it looked like . marah : yeah . yeah , it was . you know what , tony ? it 's okay . you do n't have to explain anything to me . this is your cousin 's house . you can bring home whoever you want . besides , it 's not like we 're together anymore . you know what ? you need to stop doing this to me . blake : this is not a problem . we will just drop the case . harley : harley 's angels do not drop cases . blake : no , but if it 's going to mess things up between you and gus ... harley : blake , what kind of an agency are we running if we take cases and then the next minute , we drop them ? i mean , we 'll be out of business before mel 's out of her second trimester . blake : you know , lori jenson disappeared a couple of days ago , which means , according to springfield pd , she is now a missing person . harley : so ? blake : so that means gus may already be on the case . harley : great . then we 'll be on the same track . blake : no . you 'll be on separate , parallel tracks . harley : is this some sort of , `` if train ' a ' is going somewhere and train ' b ' ... `` blake : all i 'm saying is you might be willing to share , but gus may not . harley : are you suggesting that gus would withhold important police information in order to protect alan 's company ? blake : not on purpose . but , you know , family ties , they 're kind of funny and this one 's brand spanking new , right out of the oven . honey , i just do n't want to see you get burned . gus : do you recognize this girl ? phillip : uh - uh . should i ? gus : well , she works for spaulding enterprises . her name is lori . lori jenson . ring a bell ? phillip : no . and she may , gus , but you know , it 's an international conglomerate . i do n't know everybody by face or name . why ? gus : well , she 's missing . she works for an executive at spaulding named brad green . you know that guy ? phillip : why ? gus : why ? phillip : yeah . gus : that 's a yes . do n't do that to me , please , okay ? i just told you i know she works for spaulding , so obviously i know . phillip : are you saying that he 's involved in it somehow ? gus : no , i 'm not saying anything . i 'm just asking you , do you know this guy , brad green ? do you know this guy ? phillip : yeah . yes , i know him . i do n't know him very well . gus : thank you . phillip : he works for spaulding . he 's a guy that alan hired a few years ago out of the springfield office and he got transferred to paris headquarters . gus : paris ? phillip : yeah . gus : mm - hmm . i see . why is that ? why 'd he get transferred ? phillip : well , he got transferred over there to work in the pharmaceutical division . and he 's good . he did wonders with the division over there , and i guess that 's why alex brought him back , to help the division here . gus : pharmaceutical division . you do n't deal with that division very much ? phillip : uh , no . it 's been fairly autonomous up until now . i 've been thinking about getting more involved in it . why ? come on , please , take off the detective hat for a second here and tell me how ... you think this guy 's involved ? gus : fine . okay . the mother of this girl seems to think that brad green had an affair , he seduced this girl , okay ? and when she wanted out , he could n't handle it . but alan , on the other hand , seems to think that he was the one that messed up , this brad green , she could n't handle it and she took off . phillip : well , then where is she ? gus : i do n't know where she is . phillip : if that 's the case ... gus : that is the case . it 's the case . i just do n't know where she is . maybe she 's on vacation . maybe she 's with some other guy . i just do n't know . phillip : yeah , but that 's not why you 're here . maybe somebody helped her disappear before she went public and embarrassed him . gus : well , i do n't know . all that 's speculation right now . i have no idea . phillip : ( sighs ) okay . is there anything i can do to help ? gus : you know , yeah . you should work on your time . shave some time ... phillip : no , come on . look , i 'm fine . i 'm serious . i 'm serious . gus : it 's me , man . i do n't even know if i should be bothering you . there 's the whole thing that we talked about , taking it easy ... phillip : you 're not bothering me . gus : if there 's something i need or something , or something happens , i 'll call you . you 've got my word . in fact , how can i call you , right ? because the new , improved phillip spaulding does n't come with a cell phone . but that 's good , man . more aerodynamic . you do n't want weight , you know , bogging you down when you 're sprinting for the finish line . just keep it up . you 're doing good . phillip : do n't worry , i 've got plenty bogging me down . gus : take it easy , bro ! phillip : yeah . deb , it 's me . call down to human resources and get me the file on brad green . brad : well , thanks again for delivering that paper on our new cholesterol blocker , dr . bauer . everyone at spaulding pharmaceuticals is anticipating fda approval and i think your paper might have just done the trick . ed : it 's no real trick , mr . green . i would n't be endorsing the new protocol if i did n't believe in it . but i will tell you , i 'm going to stick with my recommendation of a lower dosage . the dosage that spaulding is pushing is way too risky . brad : well , you know , as they say , `` no pain , no gain . `` ( chuckles ) the important thing in the end , doctor , is saving lives , is n't it ? alexandra : well , i 'll second that for sure . brad . brad : alexandra . alexandra : ed , how is shayne lewis doing ? ed : he 's hanging in there . he 's a tough kid . if anyone can get through this . alexandra : oh , i hope so . well , you give him my best , will you ? he 's a friend of lizzie 's . brad . brad : you know , i do n't know the lewis boy personally , but i have seen him pitch . it 's a shame . that kid 's really major league . alexandra : yes , well , i think his parents are more concerned about whether or not their son will walk again right now . brad : ah , yes . the parents . my heart goes out to them . alexandra : as does mine . as it does to any parent worried about their child . for instance , lori jenson 's mother . brad : has that woman been spreading lies about me again ? i swear , alexandra ... alexandra : brad . brad , i 'm only going to ask you this once : where is the jenson girl ? tony : i did n't know that you were going to be here . ( sighs ) all right , look , maybe it 's better this way , okay ? you were bound to see me ... you were going to see me with somebody else sooner or later . marah : yeah , or you 'd see me with someone else . tony : you met someone ? marah : what do you care ? tony : i do care . i want you to be with someone , a guy that treats you right . marah : oh , no , no . no . you do n't get a say in who i date or how he treats me . if i want to go marry some rock star and run off to jamaica , or i want to go entertain guys down at the firehouse or get a little extra credit after school from my professor , that is my business . you lost your vote ! and you know what ? i was still holding out hope that you were the guy i thought you were . but you know what , tony ? you were right this whole time . i deserve so much better than you . good night , danny . danny : okay , come on . you want to play with some toys before dinner ? tony : well , i guess you heard that , huh ? look , danny , i do n't want one of your lectures right now , so just save it , okay ? danny : tony , you are throwing away the best thing that ever happened to you and you 're not going anywhere until you tell me why . harley : look , i do n't know what kind of `` do n't ask , do n't tell `` kind of thing you and ross have , but gus and me , we do n't keep things from each other . blake : ( gags ) harley : anymore . we do n't anymore . blake : all right . but now you are a pi and he 's a detective and you 're working two sides of the same street . the rules of the game have changed . harley : what game ? nobody is playing a game here . blake : do you know anything about soccer ? harley : soccer ? blake : yes , yes . okay , this is about soccer . in soccer , you have to keep the ball in bounds , right ? the minute it goes over the little white line , somebody 's got to kick that puppy back in . harley : or throw it back in . you can throw the ball back in . blake : okay , whatever . lori jenson needs to stay out of bounds . you and gus have enough going on inside the field , you know , already with the getting married and raising the boys and just figuring out who 's going to go grocery shopping for food this week . you keep that stuff with gus . you share that stuff in bounds , and the lori jenson out of bounds . gus : hey . i hear somebody talking some shop . harley : guilty . gus : right . well , i actually came to tell you about the lori jenson case . she 's now officially a missing person . blake : no kidding . so , who 's the lead detective on the case ? gus : you 're looking at him . blake : wow . very busy , got to go . picking up the twins , you know ? soccer practice . gus : what 's the matter with her ? harley : she 's just a little frazzled . we 've been working really hard on this jenson case . gus : oh . is that right ? well , you 're both going to be relieved then , because now that i 'm heading up the investigation , you 're both off the case . harley : like hell we are . brad : so you tracked me down here because some crazy , hysterical woman insists on crying wolf . come on , alexandra . you know me . alexandra : brad , i do indeed . and that `` crazy , hysterical woman `` comment only paints a clearer picture . brad : now , i resent that . i have a wife , i have daughters and i have always been very concerned with women 's issues as far as ... alexandra : come on . brad : ... spaulding pharmaceuticals is concerned . alexandra : no , no , no . come on , come on , brad . do n't read me your bio . just tell me where the jenson girl is . brad : i do n't know . i told alan already . the poor girl came on to me and ( sighs ) i could n't help myself . i 'm not proud of it , alexandra . and i tried to end the affair with lori as quickly as i could , but is it my fault the girl could n't let go ? who knows where she ran off to ? alexandra : i have n't forgotten paris . brad : well , i should hope not . it 's my corporate successes in paris that led you to bring me here . alexandra : brad , i mean i have n't forgotten the woman in paris . brad : alexandra . alexandra : no , no , no . you know , your little indiscretions have cost this company a small fortune , brad . i 've covered your derriere once . i will not do it again . brad : i have big plans for the pharmaceutical division . now , i 'm sure you would n't want to derail all the wonderful progress that spaulding enterprises has made . alexandra : are you threatening me ? brad : of course not . you have been so good to me , alexandra , trusted me with so many secrets . alexandra : you are threatening me . brad : all i 'm saying is , do n't make me do something i do n't want to do . alexandra : likewise . ed : you could have walked away from this whole thing . you could have drowned your troubles in any number of ways , but you did n't . you know , whatever it is that brought you and shayne here , it does n't matter . the only thing that matters is that you 're here for him now . that 's what counts . marah : how is he ? josh : he 's resting . marah : that 's good . he needs his rest . josh : he 's going to recover from this , marah . i wo n't rest until he does . marah : daddies can fix anything , right ? remember when you used to tell us that when we were little ? whatever 's broken , whatever 's hurt . josh : it 's going to be okay , darling . marah : it 's not just that . dad , i loved him so much . ( sniffles ) tony : look , marah and i , we 're finished , because she is allowed to see other people and so am i. i am sorry that i ruined your santos - lewis alliance . danny : oh , knock it off , will you ? tony , marah ... tony : what ? danny : no , you know what ? forget it , because you 're not going to take anything i say seriously , are you ? tony : just go ahead . what ? danny : marah is good for you , tony . she 's good for your soul . tony : you know who you sound like right now ? danny : yeah , i do , and ray agrees with me . tony : well , did it ever occur to you and ray that maybe i do n't have a soul ? i mean , where the hell is it , danny ? what good has it done me ? what the ... danny : hey . ( whispers ) your godson is right over there . why do n't you try setting an example for a change ? all right , wait . just ... i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry . that was uncalled for . just come on . come on . hang around , have some dinner , will you please ? tony : you 've got to be kidding me . ( laughs ) danny : i 'm mad at you , you 're mad at me . we can either just start throwing the furniture around or we can try to have this family dinner that michelle is so big on . come on . i 'll give it a shot if you 'll give it a shot . we do n't have to get all `` kumbayah `` or anything ; it 's just dinner . okay ? nico : all right . the babe has been delivered . so , anything else on your to - do list , boss ? danny : yeah . grab a chair , nico , we 're having dinner . tony : ( groans ) nico : really ? all of us breaking bread ? tony : ha ! or breaking necks , whatever comes first . danny : good stuff . well , ray could n't be here tonight but i think before we start , i know he 'd really want us to say grace , so ... nico : grace . what ? danny : nothing . no , that 's fine . okay . grace . so , nico , why do n't you tell us something about yourself ? nico : what do you want to know ? danny : anything . anything . nico : um , well , i like chicken . tony : this is too much . danny : nico , how about something real ? something ... like , i heard you sing , you 're really good . why do n't you tell us about that ? nico : yeah , well , i really was n't into school and it 's not like a had a whole lot of options . danny : right , but when you have them , you should n't blow them , right ? nico : yeah , whatever . like i said , i did n't have any . so , music became my thing . you know , i guess i used that to drown out the real world . tony : well , sometimes you need to drown things out , like when they 're way out of line . nico : yeah , i guess . danny : i just want to see you make something out of your life . tony : no , you just want to make me into you . nico : so anyways , like ... tony : i ca n't be you , danny . i ca n't hold on to people like you do . danny : you can try . nico : do they do this all the time ? tony : danny , it 's time for you to just give up . it 's too late for me . nico : right . like you gave up on marah ? tony : enough about marah already ! tony : you 're hurting marah , you 're hurting yourself . you want to hurt me too , tony ? go ahead . you 're batting a thousand , are n't you ? go ahead . ( tapping glass ) nico : he loves martha . danny : what ? nico : the blonde girl . tony : it 's marah . nico : whatever . that 's why you brought that other girl over here , right , man ? come on . even i 've pulled that one before . not with that girl , but with another one . you guys know what i mean , right ? danny : no , we do n't . nico : he found out blondie was going to be here and he wanted her to see him with another chick . that whole show ? it was all for her . alexandra : phillip ! phillip : aunt alex . i 'm so glad you could make it . alexandra : well , from the sound of your message , the invitation did n't sound exactly optional . would you please why i 'm being summoned in here ? phillip : i thought maybe you could use some fresh air , get a nice view . please , sit . alexandra : thank you . phillip : i think you need to get out of the office a little more . helps to give you perspective . alexandra : and what are you doing , jogging ? phillip : yeah , i was . alexandra : really ? who are you ? phillip : i 'm a new man . thanks to some advice from my new brother . alexandra : oh , your brother gus . phillip : mm - hmm . alexandra : that 's why you 're chasing your nose around the lake , huh ? why does n't that surprise me ? listen , darling , the next time you want to see me or summon me somewhere , why do n't you make a reservation at even a cheap little restaurant , okay ? phillip : i thought that you 'd prefer to discuss business out here where we 'd have a little privacy . alexandra : you want to discuss business here ? phillip : yeah . aunt alex , you 've been running the pharmaceutical and cosmetic division in europe for some time now , and since you 've been running the division back here , i do n't know , i get the feeling like it 's really become your baby . almost as important to you as family . alexandra : uh - huh . almost . phillip : so i just wanted to ask you , why would you leave your baby in the hands of a man who may have seduced a fellow colleague and then made her disappear ? i just had this delivered from someone in human resources . why do n't you take a good , long look at it ? i think you 're going to find it a fascinating read . gus : you 're off the hook . you should be happy . you and the rest of the little angels , the harley 's angels , can go and work on other cases . harley : can we just forget for just a minute here that we share a bed ? gus : what ? what are you ... ? harley : what i 'm saying to you is , i love you , i know you love me , whatever . i would like you to treat me with the same respect you would treat any other pi who 's working the same case as you . gus : this is different . this is different . i love you , you love me . it 's like barney . i put you on the case . i can take you off the case . harley : okay , maybe you put me on the case , but you 're not the one keeping me on the case . that would be brenda jenson . gus : oh , so what are you telling me ? what , are you working for the mother now ? harley : she hired me today . gus : are you crazy ? you can't ... did it ever occur to you that maybe the mother and daughter are working together to sort of extort money out of alan ? is that possible ? or out of the company itself ? harley : did it ever occur to you that spaulding enterprises is painting an innocent young woman as a sexual predator who had it coming ? gus : excuse me , do you have any proof that something happened to lori ? harley : do you have any proof that something did n't ? gus : are you doing this just to stick it to alan , just to stick it to the spauldings ? harley : are you doing it just to clear them ? gus : are you going to answer every single question that i have with another question ? i 'm trying to do my job . harley : well , i 'm trying to do my job , here , too , okay ? and i think i can do it a lot better and a lot faster than the springfield police department can . gus : oh , is that a fact ? harley : it 's a fact . gus : yeah ? can you back that up ? alexandra : brad green happens to be one of our most effective and forceful employees . he 's also a dedicated husband and father ... phillip : wow , somebody 's been reading his bio . i can only guess that it 's his wonderful qualities that inspired you to give him a 20- year contract . 20 years , guaranteed ! i 've never seen a contract like that , until i opened up his file . alexandra : and i 'll tell you something , phillip : the man happens to be a marketing genius . he turned around the european pharmaceutical division , he boosted profits , and if i had n't hired him , another competitive firm would have . phillip : i 'm telling you right now , if there 's another reason -- i do n't care what it is -- but if there is another reason why you gave brad green the mother of all sweetheart deals , you better tell me now . do n't let gus tell me and do n't let me find out for myself . you hear me ? tell me now . alexandra : no , phillip , there is no other reason . now , listen , things have been running very smoothly since you 've been at the helm of spaulding . now , do n't let gus muddy up the waters . phillip : you lay off gus ! gus is the only person in this damn family who will give anybody a straight answer . alexandra : ( laughs ) phillip : he actually helped me get my priorities straight . alexandra : your priorities ? phillip : i have a baby on the way . i may have a wedding on the way . how do you like that ? alexandra : ( laughs bitterly ) phillip : yeah , i thought that would make you happy . but do n't worry , i 'll make sure you 're invited . who knows ? maybe olivia will throw you the bouquet . alexandra : oh . danny : tony , was that what that was all about ? you wanted marah to see you with another girl ? tony : this kid does n't know what he 's talking about . nico : hey , i 'm pretty impressed . first , you found out blondie was going to be over here and then you bagged the first chick you see , you get her to come over before blondie left ? i do n't know how you pulled that one off , man . you work pretty quick . danny : i mean , what is wrong with you ? going to all that trouble just to give marah the wrong idea . tony : it was n't the wrong idea , danny . it was the right idea . if it was jenny the waitress , it would have been someone else some other night . danny : right , right . and what about when you see marah out with another guy ? tony : then i will hate it . i 'll want to kick his teeth in . all right , but what does that tell you about me ? the way i handle things is no good for marah , so if she hates me right now , so what ? she 'll get over it . she 'll move on . nico : like i said , he loves her . tony : you know what ? i ca n't deal with this ... danny : tony , come on . tony : no , i 've got to go , i 've got to ... danny : eat your dinner . finish your dinner ! tony . nico : so , the family dinner thing ? same time tomorrow ? josh : so , i guess daddy ca n't fix this one , huh ? i 'm sorry , i wish i could . marah : i know . i guess some things just ca n't be fixed . but i 'd rather focus my energy on the things that can . josh : like ? marah : like shayne getting better . like you and mom working things out . josh : i do n't want you worrying about your mom and me . marah : you guys are both so stubborn . josh : marah . marah : i guess that 's where i get it from . i ... i could talk to mom . josh : i know you want to help us and i know you want to help your brother and you want to save tony and you want to save the world , but marah , you have to take care of yourself , too . you have to find some kind of a balance . marah : like shayne was trying to do ? josh : shayne wanted it all . he wanted baseball , family and friends and love , and he deserved it all . and if i had ... my point is that he deserved it all , and so do you . so try to stay focused on your design work and on your school and your friends . i know you 're upset about tony . marah : can we not say his name , please ? we were just getting some positive vibes going . josh : okay . i just want to hug him right now . hug my son and feel him hugging me back . marah : you will , dad . i can hold you over in the meantime . brad : thanks again , ed . as a new member of the hospital board , i look forward to doing business with you . i 'm sure we 'll make a great team . ed : we 'll see . blake : oh ! brad ? brad : excuse me . blake : brad green . brad : uh , yes . blake : peggy neidermeyer . st. olaf 's college ? northfield , minnesota ? brad : ( laughs ) blake : oh , come on , brad . you must remember me . brad : uh ... brad : peggy neidermoyer . blake : neidermeyer . brad : oh , yes , neidermeyer . blake : oh , brad , i ca n't believe you forgot me . ( laughs ) brad : now , who could forget such a pretty face . blake : why , are you ... are you flirting with me ? are you ? brad : ( laughs ) blake : because i read in the alumni magazine that you were happily married with kids . brad : guilty . blake : yeah . but it did n't tell that you were living in springfield , mister . brad : well , i 've been in europe for several years . blake : well , fancy you . i bet you have stories to tell . brad : oh , not really . blake : oh , come on . i 'll buy you a cup of coffee and you can tell me all about your world travels . brad : you know what ? can i take a raincheck ? really ... blake : okay . tomorrow . how 's that ? brad : except i 'm booked . i 've been swamped at the office . blake : well , fine . i 'll pop in . brad : spaulding is not really big on `` popping . `` ( laughs ) blake : you are a hard man to nail down , brad green . brad : i guess so . blake : but hey , listen , i 'm going to be in touch , all right ? because i want to know what you 're been up to . and i 'm going to find out . you can count on it . harley : i can not believe you . a girl is missing and you 're going to reduce this to a bet ? gus : i 'm not an idiot , okay ? i know that the life is the most important thing , a human life , that is the highest stake . i 'm simply saying we make a little side bet . it 's a lower stake , and what that does is that inspires us to find the girl . just like that , everybody 's happy . harley : fine , what do you have in mind ? gus : all right . for starters , i 'd let you stay on the investigation . harley : oh , like i need your permission . gus : and i do my job as the lead investigator of the springfield police department , i 'm doing my job , and whoever finds the girl first wins . harley : let 's talk prizes . gus : all right . prizes . first of all , i 'm not going to break up with you . secondly ... harley : ooh . gus : secondly , we get the satisfaction of cracking the case . harley : no , not good enough . gus : no ? harley : no . if harley 's angels cracks the case first , you give me ... let me see ... a spa weekend . all of us . and you get to keep the kids . gus : all of you . so that 's you and your two partners , that 's three , plus the kids , that 's five . so now i 'm responsible for five children . what do i get ? harley : you get a nice weekend fishing trip with alan . you guys are going to have so much fun . gus : what kind of present is that ? that 's a prize ? i 'm getting gypped . harley : too late , you shook . gus : ground rules . harley : ground rule number one , all 's fair in love and war and criminal investigations . gus : that 's lame ground rule number two , you just remember why we 're doing this , okay ? we need to find the girl , make everybody happy . that 's all we 're doing . harley : obviously . obviously . and ground rule number three , we 're not going to let any of this stuff going on interfere with any of this stuff going on , okay ? gus : quality control . i like it . ( gus harley ) : i got to make some calls . nico : so i guess we 're not really good at the talking thing , huh , boss ? danny : nope . i guess not . nico : robbie 's like two , right ? danny : two and a half . nico : man , that is a great age . no one ever expects to say it make any sense when you 're talking . i mean you could scream whenever you want and it 's accepted . not ... not like ... danny : tonight ? nico : hey , do you remember that thing i was talking about how music helps drowns stuff out ? danny : no , not really . nico : okay , well , i guess you guys really were n't listening . but music is great for drowning out silence , too . i mean , you know , sometimes when people talk and they 're not really saying anything , they just want to fill up the room , and it 's like they 're on auto pilot , you know , they 're like rambling on . it 's like they 're ... danny : like right now ? it 's okay , nico . it 's okay . why do n't you just pop in cd if you want ? it 's fine . nico : all right . hey , maybe ... maybe this will help you out . ( music playing ) to be completely honest it scares me to imagine what life would be without you and for this very reason i ask you to forgive me for what i 'm putting us through although there 's so many things to get since i 've decided that i 'm not giving you up oh , no , no no , i 'm not giving you up not give you up ... alexandra : next on `` guiding light . `` olivia : look , this is the only yes you 're going to get from me tonight . phillip : do n't be so sure . lizzie : all i have to do is say you seduced me up here and i could ruin your life just the way olivia ruined mine . this has been `` guiding light . ``Summarize.[/INST]alex told brad that she had covered for him in paris , but would n't again . he said she had better watch herself , because he knows a lot of company secrets . gus was proud that phillip took time for himself to jog . he asked phillip if he knew the missing girl , or brad green . he said he knew of green , but did n't know him personally . he later checked green 's personnel file , and asked alex why she gave the man a 20-year guaranteed contract . gus tried to get harley to drop the jenson case since it was now a police matter , but she said she deserved the same respect as any other private investigator . they made a bet about who could solve the case first . blake pretended to be an old college buddy of brad 's to gain access to him . marah pretended that seeing tony with a date did n't bother her , but when he said he wants her to be happy , she said she is no longer his concern , and stormed out . she told josh she missed tony , but was going to concentrate on shayne ; she also said she hated how stubborn her parents were being . nico figured out that tony set it up for marah to see him with jenny . tony said marah would be better off if she hated him .</s> | 13,257 |

tell me the truth . are you the reason that stitch 's marriage broke up ? kelly : yes . i was . kelly : jack -- billy : the product research for the fall line of moisturizers came in , and -- sorry . kelly : you know what , billy ? you should be sorry . i told you not to dig into ben 's past . i warned you that it would n't help you win back victoria . billy : and you were right . kelly : but did you listen to me ? no . instead , you flew halfway around the world to badger a woman who just wants to be left alone . billy : i had to go to australia . kelly : oh , really ? why ? billy : because you would n't tell me anything about stitch 's past . i figured jenna might . kelly : and when jenna would n't give you any information , you go digging into my past ? billy : dean told you i called ? kelly : you called my ex - husband ? ! how could you do that to me ? ! jack : maybe you should sit down . billy : i needed information . kelly : and i need a friend , billy . that is why i told you about dean and our broken marriage . that is why i trusted you ! i can not believe that you would betray me like that . billy : kelly , listen -- kelly : no . no . it 's okay . why should i be surprised ?

victoria : no , dad . now is what counts . you have n't let her down . you stood by her when she had to relive being used by ian . victor : yeah , but i hate the fact that that son of a bitch put her through such turmoil again . victoria : unnecessarily . victor : but , you know , one good thing happened . she made it perfectly clear to ian ward that he no longer has a hold over her . victoria : he has no more ties to mom 'cause dylan is paul 's son . victor : yeah . victoria : are you sure you 're okay with all that ?

[ sighs ] paul : hey . hey , what 's wrong ? hey , look -- i 'm okay . i 'm alive and everything . christine : i know . i just ... i did n't know if i would ever have another moment like this again -- just a quiet moment , you looking at me . paul : [ chuckles ] you 're so beautiful . christine : when i heard you were shot -- paul : oh , come on . cut that out . look at me . i made it . christine : i know , but ... paul : on the road to recovery . christine : ... you almost did n't . todd gave you last rites . that 's how close i was to losing you and the future and the family we talked about . paul : i 'm sorry you had to go through that . christine : well , everything is gon na be fine now . paul : yeah ? christine : yeah . paul : all that time i was helping nikki search for those birth records ... i had no idea i was searching for my own child . christine : [ sighs ] paul : what are ... the odds of that ? christine : you know , i do n't -- i do n't want to talk about odds anymore . that 's all i 've been hearing about from the doctors these last few days , you know -- the odds of finding a match to your rare blood type and the odds of finding a liver available , the odds of you surviving . i just want to think about our life together . that 's all . paul : i love you . christine : i love you . [ crying ] you came back to me . ian : i was perfectly content to live my life helping people find their purpose , and then avery and dylan showed up at my door , and , suddenly , i was meeting with a grown son that i did n't know anything about -- a grown son who hated me because of the stories you concocted . nikki : oh . oh . i concocted them ? ian : yes , concocted , to ease your guilt about abandoning dylan when he was a baby . avery : i ca n't listen to this anymore . nikki , you should n't , either . ian : well ... nikki : i did not abandon my child . i gave him a chance -- a chance to become a better man than you 'll ever be . ian : there 's no telling what kind of man i would have been if i had known my son from birth . nikki : he 's not your son , so stop saying that he is ! victor : will you please stop getting yourself worked up over this man , okay ? please consider your health . nikki : i 'm fine . ian : yes , your m.s . , nikki . victor : how -- please , how is dylan ? ian : the poor young man has been through so much , all due to your wife , victor . nikki : oh , god . ian : she should be held accountable . victor : you get your ass out of here now . ian : heh . heh . victor : this is not your fault , sweetheart , okay ? nikki : i do n't want to believe that it is , but ... i do n't know . i ca n't help but think that ian has a point . chelsea : stop underestimating billy . he is fully capable of knowing when -- victoria : when he 's being seduced . chelsea : my god . you are so off base ... kevin : dude , i tried . chelsea : ... thinking i would ever use our losses -- victoria : `` our losses `` ? hold on a second . you know , you might be sad bee anymore , but that 's not the same as losing a baby -- a baby that your beloved husband left to die by the side of the road . so , do n't try to compare your pain to billy 's , okay ? do n't do that . billy : chelsea , you do n't have to defend me ... or explain your grief . victoria : [ sighs ] billy : vicki ... victoria : i - i get it . so , only my friends should be subjected to intense scrutiny . is that what it is ? billy : i crossed the line with the whole australia thing . i admit that . but [ sighs ] that does n't give you the right to take it out on chelsea . jack : you got a minute ? kelly : not really . uh , cane and lily headed to paris . i 'm on double duty . jack : i just came by to apologize for what happened . kelly : [ sighs ] you know , it 's not up to you to clean up billy 's mess . jack : no , i want to say i 'm sorry for the mess i made . i told you you had a right to a past , that i would n't judge , and that 's exactly what i did -- i judged -- and i 'm sorry . kelly : all right . jack : i 'm also sorry that you did n't think you could trust me enough to tell me what was going on with you and stitch . i 'm sure you did n't mean to hurt me . kelly : i did n't . i did n't mean to hurt you . jack : well , if we go on , us -- we -- i 'm only gon na get hurt more . it took a lot for me to step out after phyllis ... and i guess i can thank you for helping me start to heal . kelly : jack , just let me explain , okay ? jack : you do n't owe me an explanation . kelly : no , i know , but i want to tell you the truth . leslie : um , i mean , i could study architecture , maybe , or psychology . i mean , defending accused criminals -- it definitely -- barton : do i need to remind you why i fell so madly in love with you and married you so quickly ? leslie : please . yes , remind me . barton : leslie , you are a determined , self - made woman who fights for what she wants and is damn good at what she does . you do n't need another career because , baby , you already got one . leslie : okay , but i 'm saying if ian -- barton : no . no `` buts . `` baby , you will come out on top of this . okay ? that 's what we do . leslie : oh . `` that 's what we do . `` barton : yes , that 's right . leslie : [ laughing ] okay . barton : all right ? i 've got to get back to the hospital . thank you for this beautiful dinner . leslie : thank you . barton : i love you . leslie : i love you . barton : see you tonight . leslie : okay . ian : well , now , just the woman i was looking for . leslie : so that you can remind me that my days as an attorney are numbered if you complain to the ethics committee ? ian : actually , leslie , i 'm here to offer you a way out of this mess . victor : what do you mean when you say ian ward has a point ? that slimeball has been lying to you for decades . nikki : i know that he would say anything to serve his own purposes , but in this situation , he 's not all wrong . victor : what do you mean , he 's not all wrong ? why are you saying that ? nikki : the choices that i made put dylan on his path , and that led him here to this hospital . victor : i do n't understand any of what you say . dylan knew full well what the risks were when he offered to donate part of his liver . nikki : only because he overheard me with paul talking about it . victor : you are not to be blamed ! stitch : okay . that 's fine . avery 's with dylan ? nikki : do you have news ? stitch : why do n't we go to dylan 's room ? avery : stitch ... what did you find out ? stitch : dylan 's bloodwork came back . victor : and ? stitch : it 's worse than i thought . christine : all right , sweetie . just close your eyes and get some sleep . paul : i need to thank dylan first . christine : nikki will give him the message . paul : will you go and see if he can come back here ? christine : listen , honey , you both had major surgery . neither of you should be getting out of bed . paul : but he was here before , was n't he ? i remember . christine : he was , against doctors ' orders . but you need to rest . you 'll have plenty of time to bond with him later . avery : what do you mean , worse ? what does that mean for him ? stitch : dylan is suffering from an infection . it 's very aggressive , and it 's caused his body to go into gram - negative sepsis and shock . nikki : oh , my god . avery : sepsis ? that 's ... stitch : very serious . but we 're gon na start him on some high - powered antibiotics , and , hopefully , he 'll respond . victor : and if he does n't ? stitch : we 'll do everything we can . ian : i 'd be willing to keep your little breech of ethics to myself if you do something for me in return . leslie : hmm . a deal with the devil ? ian : [ chuckles ] well , i wo n't ask for your firstborn -- just some legal help , which would save your career . leslie : what kind of legal help , ian ? ian : i want to sue nikki newman . leslie : what ? on what grounds ? ian : she 's caused me severe emotional distress . surely , that 's actionable . victoria : i 'll make you a deal , billy -- you leave my friends alone , and i 'll stay away from yours . billy : [ sighs ] chelsea : thanks for sticking up for me , but i do n't think it helped your cause with victoria . billy : yeah , well , it may be a lost one since i 've been acting like a complete jackass . i should have taken your advice and kelly 's and jack 's that digging up dirt on stitch was not the way to win my wife back . chelsea : probably . billy : i 'm sorry for dragging you into this , chels . maybe we should just forget the whole thing . kevin : are you sure about that ? 'cause i just found something interesting . kelly : my past with ben is complicated , which is why i do n't talk about it . but what you overheard earlier -- that 's true . i will always love him . jack : then you did have an affair with him ? kelly : no , jack . i told you it was n't like that . ben is ... my brother . [ next_on ] jill : i think you should save yourself the embarrassment . just give up on victoria . colin : i said i needed a little more time . i 'm afraid you 're all out . chelsea : has ben rayburn been up to no good ? kevin : not since he graduated high school and died in a car crash . | victor is on the phone when victoria joins him . victoria asks victor about dylan being a donor for paul . at the hospital , paul rants and raves about killing ricky . in paul 's hospital room , nikki lets paul know that he has another son , and it is dylan . christine walks in and wants to know what nikki is doing in his hospital room . dylan takes a turn for the worse . at crimson lights , billy and chelsea ask kevin to help them find information on ben . at first , kevin refuses . billy fills kevin in on jenna having left the country with their son , but there does n't seem to be any trace of anyone named ben . in his office , jack questions kelly about her and ben . ben orders avery out of dylan 's room while he runs the necessary tests on him . ian ward arrives at the hospital to check on dylan . avery lets ian know that dylan is not his son and slaps him . the doctor checks on paul and advises nikki and christine to let him rest . in the corridor , nikki and christine argue over the fact that nikki told paul that dylan was his son . victor fills victoria in on the fact that dylan is paul 's son . victoria asks victor how he feels about this . victoria lets victor know that she and billy are getting a divorce . kevin does n't understand what kelly has to do with ben . after talking a few moments , kevin agrees to help them . jack questions kelly about her relationship with ben . kelly lets jack know that she was the reason that ben and jenna 's marriage broke up . kelly is just about to explain when billy walks in . kelly begins to lash out at billy for going to australia to check up on jenna and get information about ben and for delving into her past . | <s>[INST] victoria : mom ? ! victor : the exchange rate is not to our advantage , okay ? let me deal with that later . yep . thank you . hi , sweetheart . victoria : hi , dad . victor : so ... your mom is not here . victoria : did she go back to the hospital ? victor : uh , avery called . apparently , dylan is in recovery . victoria : dad , can you please explain something to me ? how did dylan wind up being paul 's organ donor ? victor : hmm . well , he volunteered . victoria : yes , but i thought the doctor said it was too dangerous because of some previous injury . victor : but , apparently , he thought it was worth taking that risk . victoria : well , i know that dylan felt guilty and he felt somehow responsible for paul getting shot , but why would he risk his life for paul ? victor : there 's more involved than just guilt , sweetheart , okay ? victoria : you know , dylan is my brother , so if there 's something going on with him , i should know . victor : let 's just say that dylan learned that he had a very compelling reason to save paul , okay ? victoria : which was ? victor : turns out that ian ward ... ca n't have nor could ever have had children . paul : [ crying ] my son . i killed my son . he 's gone . nikki : no . no . he 's not . paul : ricky ... is gone . nikki : paul , ricky is gone , but u still have a son . paul : no . nikki : you have dylan . listen to me . dylan is your son . paul : dylan ? nikki : yes , dylan . i was wrong . all this time , i thought it was ian , but i was wrong . christine : dr. shelby 's on his way . paul : ohh . christine : what are you doing ? ! nikki : christine , he was thrashing around , and i thought he was gon na hurt himself . christine : paul . paul . hey . paul : i need to see him . christine : listen , everything 's gon na be okay . dr. shelby 's on his way . paul : no . i need to see my son . christine : ricky is n't here . paul : no . dylan -- i need to see dylan . [ alarms blaring ] avery : [ crying ] somebody help me , please ! dylan ! dylan . stitch ! stitch , i do n't know what happened ! he was -- he was fine a minute ago , and then the machines -- stitch : okay . wait outside , avery . avery : is he gon na be okay ? stitch : dylan , can you hear me ? all right . his blood pressure 's dropped , damn it . he 's going into shock . okay . cbc , blood culture times 3 . raise his i.v . to 175 cc per hour , d5 normal saline , continuous vitals . dylan ! chelsea : kevin , billy and i are very committed to this . billy : that 's right . we even went to australia . kevin : ah . vacation ? chelsea : stitch 's ex - wife . billy : we tried getting dirt on stitch from her , and she actually talked to us , but -- kevin : how 'd you get her to do that ? billy : we posed as a documentary crew . kevin : posed ? what does that mean ? what , did you guys wear disguises ? chelsea : i wore glasses . billy : i had a hat . kevin : oh . well , that 's brilliant . but it 's still fraud , right -- presenting as something that you 're not ? it is not my thing . forget it . billy : come on , kevin . kevin : billy , do n't act like we 're best buds . billy : okay . so i do n't think that much of you and you probably despise me , but could you put that aside ? kevin : because you need some under - the - table tech savvy ? chelsea : kevin , please -- will you just hear him out ? [ sighs ] billy : okay . so , the ex - wife ... chelsea : jenna . billy : right -- jenna ... clams up the minute we mention kelly 's name . kevin : other woman ? billy : do n't know , so we reached out to kelly 's ex ... chelsea : who had never even heard of stitch , a.k.a . ben rayburn . kevin : so ? billy : so , no one has . kevin : it 's not possible . web searches -- chelsea : it 's as if stitch did n't exist prior to joining the army . billy : and i know that you turned me down the first time i asked you to look into stitch 's past . kevin : i 'm turning you down again . billy : kevin , i 'm desperate . my marriage is at stake . please , help me find what stitch is hiding and why -- why kelly is helping him cover it up . kelly : i 'm not sure what you think is going on , jack . jack : oh , it was pretty obvious . there 's something between you and stitch -- something more than you 've been saying . kelly : i told you -- we have history . jack : history , as in the past , only what you have with stitch is not in the past , is it ? that hug was very much in the present . avery : stitch , is he gon na be all right ? ! stitch : get her out of here . avery : i -- it 's okay . avery : he ca n't die ! stitch , he ca n't die ! stitch : then let me help him ! go ! get out ! avery : okay . i got it . i got it ! avery : [ crying ] ian : avery ? what 's wrong ? is it dylan ? avery : you 've got some nerve showing up here . ian : well , i am dylan 's father . i 'm concerned about my son 's welfare . avery : you know damn well dylan is n't your son . ian : nikki led me to believe that he was my son , so if you want to get angry with -- avery : i 'm angry at you for scamming us all these months , for lying to dylan , for trying to extort money from nikki when you knew it was n't possible that you were dylan 's father ! ian : i was deceived . avery : stop playing the victim ! ian : i was deceived . avery : your secret is out . everyone knows the truth ! ian : [ sighs ] barton : there 's no cause for alarm . many patients wake up disoriented after surgery . christine : he was really thrashing around . barton : i 've given your husband something to help him rest . we should all let him do that . christine : [ smooches ] barton : if you need anything else at all , just let me know . nikki : we 'll let you know , doctor . barton : okay . christine : `` we 'll let you know `` ? nikki : oh , god . i was just saying -- christine : you know , you heard the doctor . let 's let paul rest . could you please leave before you upset him any further ? nikki : i 'm not the one who upset him . he was in there thrashing around -- christine : what were you even doing in the room in the first place ? nikki : i thought if he learned about dylan , it would calm him down . christine : i 've made it very clear that no one tell paul about dylan until he 's stronger . nikki : well , he was asking . christine : oh , yeah , and you could n't wait to rush in there by his side , drop this bombshell on him , the second i walk out of the room . nikki : that 's not true ! it was n't like that ! christine : you had no right . paul is my husband . nikki : well , he 's my friend . in fact , i 've known him a lot longer than you have . christine : that means you know him better than i do , that you have some sort of entitlement to my husband ? who the hell do you think you are ? ! nikki : oh , give it a rest , christine . paul 's a big boy . i think he can handle this news about dylan . maybe you are the one with the issues . christine : you know what ? i 'm about to start having a big issue with you . i 'm not kidding . paul : what 's going on ? nikki : do n't you touch me ! paul : what 's going on ? what ? what 's -- why ? victoria : paul is dylan 's father ? victor : as it turns out . victoria : how are you handling this , dad ? victor : i 'm angry -- very angry . victoria : at mom ? victor : no , not at your mother . i 'm angry at ian ward for making nikki relive the worst time of her life . victoria : are you sure you 're okay with paul being dylan 's father . victor : it does n't affect me . victoria : yeah , dad . of course it does . why would n't it ? i mean , there 's a humongous difference between mom having a child with someone that she once loved and someone that she loves so much . victor : sweetheart , do n't you worry , okay ? your mother and i love each other . that 's all that matters . victoria : i know that , but this new development -- it 's , uh ... victor : will you stop worrying about it ? i 'm not concerned with it , okay ? so , uh ... how 's your pregnancy coming along ? victoria : dad , that 's a really nice way to change the subject . victor : well , in a way , the situation is similar , you know ? but you do n't have to wait for years to find out whether billy abbott or dr . rayburn fathered your baby . victoria : yes , that 's true . it 's quite a relief . victor : but you 're still stressed out ? victoria : dad , it 's just not an ideal situation , you know ? the circumstances are a little off , but ... i 'm lucky because either man , billy or ben , will be a great father for this baby . victor : may i ask who you 'd prefer to be the father ? victoria : i would prefer it if delia were still alive , and then billy would n't have cheated on me . but he did , and now we 're getting a divorce . victor : may i also ask where stitch fits in to all this ? victoria : i like him , dad . i do . he 's a good man . victor : i think he 's a very good guy . victoria : and he 's good to me . victor : yeah . i mean , he was a veteran and went to medical school , actually finished , got his degree . i have great respect for all that . victoria : oh , boy . let 's not turn all of this praise of ben into badmouthing billy . victor : i 'm simply stating the obvious , that 's all . victoria : i may be divorcing him , but i 'm really tired of hearing you trash billy . victor : baby , that was not my intention . be glad that you do n't have to go through what your mother went through -- being pregnant and alone and scared . do n't you ever worry , okay ? as long as i 'm here , i will always support you . i do n't care who fathered your baby . victoria : okay . victor : come here . [ smooches ] victoria : love you . victor : i adore you . kevin : i - i do n't get it . you want me to get the dirt on stitch by looking into kelly 's background ? chelsea : it 's the only lead we 've got . kevin : but billy slept with kelly . is n't it usually the wronged spouse who wants to find the dirt on the woman her husband had the affair with ? billy : okay , get this straight . what i had with kelly -- that was n't an affair . kevin : you cheated on your wife . billy : it was one night , kevin . kevin : yeah , and that 's all it takes to ruin marriage . billy : victoria may have filed for a divorce , but i 'm still gon na do everything in my power to make sure that she and the baby that she 's carrying do n't get hurt . [ cell phone beeps ] billy : i - i 've got to get back to work . will you get the information ? please ? kevin : well , i like that you said , `` please . `` chelsea : will you do it , kevin ? kevin : [ sighs ] you know , losing chloe -- i - i do n't want victoria or you to have to go through that same kind of pain , so if there 's a chance you can save things ... billy : thank you for your help , kevin . chelsea : how will you do it ? kevin : well , it 's nearly impossible to not leave a digital trail . all information is stored on a server somewhere . you just have to know where to look . and i know where to look . kelly : jack ... i care about you . i think our relationship could go somewhere . jack : yeah . i thought so , too . kelly : you have to know that i am not seeing anyone else . jack : and i 'm supposed to know that how -- by your saying so ? you also said that you and stitch were n't close . that 's not exactly what i witnessed at the club . kelly : that was a hug . jack : i heard you tell him you still loved him . kelly : [ sighs ] jack : what is going on ? tell me the truth . are you the reason that stitch 's marriage broke up ? kelly : yes . i was . kelly : jack -- billy : the product research for the fall line of moisturizers came in , and -- sorry . kelly : you know what , billy ? you should be sorry . i told you not to dig into ben 's past . i warned you that it would n't help you win back victoria . billy : and you were right . kelly : but did you listen to me ? no . instead , you flew halfway around the world to badger a woman who just wants to be left alone . billy : i had to go to australia . kelly : oh , really ? why ? billy : because you would n't tell me anything about stitch 's past . i figured jenna might . kelly : and when jenna would n't give you any information , you go digging into my past ? billy : dean told you i called ? kelly : you called my ex - husband ? ! how could you do that to me ? ! jack : maybe you should sit down . billy : i needed information . kelly : and i need a friend , billy . that is why i told you about dean and our broken marriage . that is why i trusted you ! i can not believe that you would betray me like that . billy : kelly , listen -- kelly : no . no . it 's okay . why should i be surprised ? after all , this is the same man who betrayed his own wife . victoria : dad [ sighs ] i just really want you to know i appreciate the way you keep showing up for me , even with everything that 's happening with me and this baby . victor : [ smooches ] you 're my daughter . victoria : i know , but i appreciate it . and i know that mom appreciates you being there for her , too . victor : and i appreciate your saying that . i just wish that i could have en there for your mother all those years ago , you know ? victoria : no , dad . now is what counts . you have n't let her down . you stood by her when she had to relive being used by ian . victor : yeah , but i hate the fact that that son of a bitch put her through such turmoil again . victoria : unnecessarily . victor : but , you know , one good thing happened . she made it perfectly clear to ian ward that he no longer has a hold over her . victoria : he has no more ties to mom 'cause dylan is paul 's son . victor : yeah . victoria : are you sure you 're okay with all that ? victor : paul williams is a nice guy . i 'm not worried about him . victoria : okay , dad . then what 's bothering you ? victor : ian ward . christine : it 's okay . there was a woman that was unhappy about her diagnosis , but everything 's fine . it 's okay . paul : is it true ? nikki , is -- is it true ? nikki : what , paul ? paul : dylan ... is my son ? nikki : yes , he is . paul : but ian -- ian ward is not the father ? christine : sweetheart , let 's wait and have this discussion later , okay ? you have to rest now . paul : no , no , no . i missed too much already . nikki : remember a cryptic message that ian gave you after you arrested him ? paul : ohh . he did me a favor . nikki : yes . this is what he was alluding to . he 's known all along that he could n't have been the father . paul : nikki , move closer . nikki : yeah . yeah . sure . yeah . paul : how can you be sure ? nikki : well , when ian was a teenager , he had an accident that left him sterile . paul : and this has all been confirmed ? nikki : yes , yes , with medical records . paul : why ? i do n't understand . nikki : he saw an opportunity to make a quick buck on my assumption . i just could kick myself . i should have realized sooner that you could possibly be the father . i mean , we were together then , remember ? paul : and then -- then you were with ian . nikki : it 's a shame that ... it took you almost dying for the truth to come out . paul : i do n't understand . nikki : dylan ... was your donor . paul : dylan ? nikki : yeah . paul : [ crying ] my son saved my life ? nikki : [ crying ] yes . yes , he did . christine : well , let 's -- let 's make sure dylan 's gift does n't go to waste , okay ? you have to rest and let your body heal . nikki , please . thank you for coming , nikki . thank you . i 'm so glad you 're better . you had us so scared . paul : wait . nikki . nikki : yeah ? paul : do me a favor , please . nikki : anything . paul : tell him thank you for me . nikki : i will . paul : [ moans ] ian : i 'm just as surprised as you and dylan that i may not be his father . avery : stop lying . i ca n't deal with your mind games when dylan is fighting for his life . ian : why did he go against his doctor 's wishes ? nikki : because he wanted to save his father . that 's right . dylan knows the truth , so you can take your concern and your lies and go . the only thing that matters is that paul and dylan are well . ian : i do n't know why you 're so angry with me , nicole , since you 're the one who 's been deceiving us all these years . nikki : excuse me ? [ door closes ] ave : stitch , what 's happening ? stitch : we 're waiting for test results . avery : but dylan 's gon na be okay , right ? stitch : we 'll know more soon . avery : can i see him ? stitch : when the nurse is done , yeah . avery : okay . nikki : what are you still doing here ? did n't i tell you to leave ? i do n't want you anywhere near my son ! ian : you misled us -- dylan , paul , and me . nikki : you knew you were sterile . ian : i was told that it was very unlikely that i would ever father children . but then dylan showed up , and i thought maybe the doctors were wrong . nikki : that 's unbelievable bull . ian : plenty of couples have struggled with infertility for years , and then they get pregnant after they 've adopted , so i thought maybe -- nikki : oh , and you thought that you rated a miracle ? ian : no , a gift , nicole -- a gift . and you seemed so certain . nikki : i seemed bamboozled . ian : so i embraced dylan as my son . i even changed my will . i made him my one sole beneficiary . nikki : no , that was your insurance policy in case he came after you after what you did to him . ian : you cheated me , nicole . avery : ian , stop it ! i want you to go . ian : you want to blame somebody ? blame nicole . her choices led us here . leslie : oh . hi . [ both smooch ] barton : sorry to keep you waiting . leslie : oh , no . it 's okay . i 'm just glad you could slip away for a quick dinner . so , what 's the deal ? how 's paul ? barton : well , you know . it 's a process . but he 's recovering well . leslie : wow . that ... is truly amazing . barton : what -- that i brought him back from the brink of death ? leslie : uh , yes . i mean , that has to be a good feeling . your work really makes a difference in people 's lives . barton : well , so does yours . leslie : i mean , it did . i do n't know . i mean , i may be done practicing law if ian complains to the ethics committee . barton : do n't buy in to the worst - case scenario just yet . leslie : i 'm just saying if ian reports me , i will admit i did break attorney- client privilege . barton : okay . leslie : [ sighs ] barton : well , do you regret it ? leslie : i regret that it may get me disbarred . barton : but if you had your choice to do it again , would you ? leslie : um ... i would still tell nikki the truth . i mean , like you said , paul was on the brink of death . dylan deserved to spend those moments with his father , especially if they were his last . billy : i did n't go to your place intending to betray victoria . i was grieving for my daughter . kelly : and i was grieving my son . billy : we got caught up , kelly . i thought you understood that . kelly : and i thought you understood that the things i told you about my family were n't easily shared . losing sam destroyed me and my marriage . billy : i know . kelly : that 's it , billy ! you knew ! dean and i could barely look at each other after sam died , it hurt so much ! why would you reopen those wounds by contacting him ? ! jack : i 'm sure billy did n't mean -- kelly : do my own feelings mean so little to you ? i thought we were friends . guess i was wrong . billy : go ahead . tell me how paranoid and wrong i 've been . jack : no , you were n't wrong -- at least not about stitch and kelly . kevin : why are you so invested in this ? chelsea : i want to help billy and victoria . kevin : why ? 's not like you 're that close with him or her . chelsea : i think there 's still hope for them . kevin : hope that they 'll get the happy ending you missed ? chelsea : adam 's dead . there 's no turning that around . kevin : i feel you . chelsea : have you talked to chloe ? kevin : she sent me a text basically saying , `` stay away . `` chelsea : can you stay away ? kevin : i got on the very next plane and went to california . chelsea : you did not . kevin : i broke into the psych ward where she was -- got busted by some rent - a- cops who promptly called the actual cops . chelsea : you got arrested ? ! kevin : no , just held for questioning . i had to call michael . he had to convince them i was harmless . chelsea : oh , god . kevin : they let me go a few hours later . chelsea : kevin , what did you think was gon na happen ? kevin : i do n't know . i thought if i saw her in person , i could convince her not to cut me out of her life . chelsea : she cares about you . i know she does . kevin : i doubt that . she wo n't reply to my calls . she wo n't reply to my texts , my e - mails . chelsea : maybe she 's trying to focus on getting healthy . kevin : what am i supposed to focus on ? how am i supposed to live without her ? chelsea : the same way i live without adam . it 's hard , but , eventually , you have to stop going through the motions . you have to start living again . victoria : living with who ? or do i even have to ask ? victoria : so , um , are you gon na claim that you went to australia with my husband to save my marriage ? chelsea : um ... i was looking out for billy . victoria : he 's a big boy , chelsea . chelsea : he 's also desperate to get you back . i was afraid if he went by himself , he might get himself into trouble . victoria : right -- the same kind of trouble that you two got yourselves in before . you going for round 2 ? kevin : victoria , maybe if you just -- chelsea : wow . it 's crazy to me . this guy -- he does this huge , big , romantic gesture because he loves you . he was trying to keep you safe . kevin : anybody want coffee ? chelsea : and then you crush the poor guy by filing for divorce ? victoria : what exactly was i supposed to do ? was i supposed to reward his impulsive bad behavior by taking him back again ? chelsea : you know what ? just jump for joy , victoria , because you no longer have to please billy 's life . kevin : so , we agree -- it 's time for coffee . victoria : you know , the hell i do n't . we have a child together . his name 's johnny . and this baby might be his , too . so , i have every right to do whatever the hell i want to do -- chelsea : you ca n't have it both ways . you either want billy or you do n't . kevin : is anybody hungry ? i mean , i could eat . victoria : let him go ? why -- so you can have him ? chelsea : he needed a friend . kevin : oh , to hell with it . chelsea : you know what ? billy 's in pain , and i understand pain . victoria : oh , right . of course . and i 'm sure you just wanted to bond over your grief in the outback . you know what ? you 're crazy if you think billy 's ever gon na make that mistake again . billy : things can look what like they are n't . jack : stitch and kelly were hugging . billy : well , victoria jumped to conclusions when she saw me hugging kelly . jack : i heard her tell him she still loved him . billy : oh . i 'm sorry , jack . jack : are you really ? hell , i thought you 'd be thrilled . it 's absolute proof the two of them have been hiding something . billy : well , despite what kelly said , i regret that i ruined that friendship along with my marriage , and i regret that my brother 's in pain due to something that i set in motion . jack : you had the right intention . billy : there 's got to be another way to protect victoria without hurting everybody that i care about . [ sighs ] paul : hey . hey , what 's wrong ? hey , look -- i 'm okay . i 'm alive and everything . christine : i know . i just ... i did n't know if i would ever have another moment like this again -- just a quiet moment , you looking at me . paul : [ chuckles ] you 're so beautiful . christine : when i heard you were shot -- paul : oh , come on . cut that out . look at me . i made it . christine : i know , but ... paul : on the road to recovery . christine : ... you almost did n't . todd gave you last rites . that 's how close i was to losing you and the future and the family we talked about . paul : i 'm sorry you had to go through that . christine : well , everything is gon na be fine now . paul : yeah ? christine : yeah . paul : all that time i was helping nikki search for those birth records ... i had no idea i was searching for my own child . christine : [ sighs ] paul : what are ... the odds of that ? christine : you know , i do n't -- i do n't want to talk about odds anymore . that 's all i 've been hearing about from the doctors these last few days , you know -- the odds of finding a match to your rare blood type and the odds of finding a liver available , the odds of you surviving . i just want to think about our life together . that 's all . paul : i love you . christine : i love you . [ crying ] you came back to me . ian : i was perfectly content to live my life helping people find their purpose , and then avery and dylan showed up at my door , and , suddenly , i was meeting with a grown son that i did n't know anything about -- a grown son who hated me because of the stories you concocted . nikki : oh . oh . i concocted them ? ian : yes , concocted , to ease your guilt about abandoning dylan when he was a baby . avery : i ca n't listen to this anymore . nikki , you should n't , either . ian : well ... nikki : i did not abandon my child . i gave him a chance -- a chance to become a better man than you 'll ever be . ian : there 's no telling what kind of man i would have been if i had known my son from birth . nikki : he 's not your son , so stop saying that he is ! victor : will you please stop getting yourself worked up over this man , okay ? please consider your health . nikki : i 'm fine . ian : yes , your m.s . , nikki . victor : how -- please , how is dylan ? ian : the poor young man has been through so much , all due to your wife , victor . nikki : oh , god . ian : she should be held accountable . victor : you get your ass out of here now . ian : heh . heh . victor : this is not your fault , sweetheart , okay ? nikki : i do n't want to believe that it is , but ... i do n't know . i ca n't help but think that ian has a point . chelsea : stop underestimating billy . he is fully capable of knowing when -- victoria : when he 's being seduced . chelsea : my god . you are so off base ... kevin : dude , i tried . chelsea : ... thinking i would ever use our losses -- victoria : `` our losses `` ? hold on a second . you know , you might be sad bee anymore , but that 's not the same as losing a baby -- a baby that your beloved husband left to die by the side of the road . so , do n't try to compare your pain to billy 's , okay ? do n't do that . billy : chelsea , you do n't have to defend me ... or explain your grief . victoria : [ sighs ] billy : vicki ... victoria : i - i get it . so , only my friends should be subjected to intense scrutiny . is that what it is ? billy : i crossed the line with the whole australia thing . i admit that . but [ sighs ] that does n't give you the right to take it out on chelsea . jack : you got a minute ? kelly : not really . uh , cane and lily headed to paris . i 'm on double duty . jack : i just came by to apologize for what happened . kelly : [ sighs ] you know , it 's not up to you to clean up billy 's mess . jack : no , i want to say i 'm sorry for the mess i made . i told you you had a right to a past , that i would n't judge , and that 's exactly what i did -- i judged -- and i 'm sorry . kelly : all right . jack : i 'm also sorry that you did n't think you could trust me enough to tell me what was going on with you and stitch . i 'm sure you did n't mean to hurt me . kelly : i did n't . i did n't mean to hurt you . jack : well , if we go on , us -- we -- i 'm only gon na get hurt more . it took a lot for me to step out after phyllis ... and i guess i can thank you for helping me start to heal . kelly : jack , just let me explain , okay ? jack : you do n't owe me an explanation . kelly : no , i know , but i want to tell you the truth . leslie : um , i mean , i could study architecture , maybe , or psychology . i mean , defending accused criminals -- it definitely -- barton : do i need to remind you why i fell so madly in love with you and married you so quickly ? leslie : please . yes , remind me . barton : leslie , you are a determined , self - made woman who fights for what she wants and is damn good at what she does . you do n't need another career because , baby , you already got one . leslie : okay , but i 'm saying if ian -- barton : no . no `` buts . `` baby , you will come out on top of this . okay ? that 's what we do . leslie : oh . `` that 's what we do . `` barton : yes , that 's right . leslie : [ laughing ] okay . barton : all right ? i 've got to get back to the hospital . thank you for this beautiful dinner . leslie : thank you . barton : i love you . leslie : i love you . barton : see you tonight . leslie : okay . ian : well , now , just the woman i was looking for . leslie : so that you can remind me that my days as an attorney are numbered if you complain to the ethics committee ? ian : actually , leslie , i 'm here to offer you a way out of this mess . victor : what do you mean when you say ian ward has a point ? that slimeball has been lying to you for decades . nikki : i know that he would say anything to serve his own purposes , but in this situation , he 's not all wrong . victor : what do you mean , he 's not all wrong ? why are you saying that ? nikki : the choices that i made put dylan on his path , and that led him here to this hospital . victor : i do n't understand any of what you say . dylan knew full well what the risks were when he offered to donate part of his liver . nikki : only because he overheard me with paul talking about it . victor : you are not to be blamed ! stitch : okay . that 's fine . avery 's with dylan ? nikki : do you have news ? stitch : why do n't we go to dylan 's room ? avery : stitch ... what did you find out ? stitch : dylan 's bloodwork came back . victor : and ? stitch : it 's worse than i thought . christine : all right , sweetie . just close your eyes and get some sleep . paul : i need to thank dylan first . christine : nikki will give him the message . paul : will you go and see if he can come back here ? christine : listen , honey , you both had major surgery . neither of you should be getting out of bed . paul : but he was here before , was n't he ? i remember . christine : he was , against doctors ' orders . but you need to rest . you 'll have plenty of time to bond with him later . avery : what do you mean , worse ? what does that mean for him ? stitch : dylan is suffering from an infection . it 's very aggressive , and it 's caused his body to go into gram - negative sepsis and shock . nikki : oh , my god . avery : sepsis ? that 's ... stitch : very serious . but we 're gon na start him on some high - powered antibiotics , and , hopefully , he 'll respond . victor : and if he does n't ? stitch : we 'll do everything we can . ian : i 'd be willing to keep your little breech of ethics to myself if you do something for me in return . leslie : hmm . a deal with the devil ? ian : [ chuckles ] well , i wo n't ask for your firstborn -- just some legal help , which would save your career . leslie : what kind of legal help , ian ? ian : i want to sue nikki newman . leslie : what ? on what grounds ? ian : she 's caused me severe emotional distress . surely , that 's actionable . victoria : i 'll make you a deal , billy -- you leave my friends alone , and i 'll stay away from yours . billy : [ sighs ] chelsea : thanks for sticking up for me , but i do n't think it helped your cause with victoria . billy : yeah , well , it may be a lost one since i 've been acting like a complete jackass . i should have taken your advice and kelly 's and jack 's that digging up dirt on stitch was not the way to win my wife back . chelsea : probably . billy : i 'm sorry for dragging you into this , chels . maybe we should just forget the whole thing . kevin : are you sure about that ? 'cause i just found something interesting . kelly : my past with ben is complicated , which is why i do n't talk about it . but what you overheard earlier -- that 's true . i will always love him . jack : then you did have an affair with him ? kelly : no , jack . i told you it was n't like that . ben is ... my brother .

[ door opens ] cane : hey . i came as soon as i got your message . it 's good to see you . lily : yeah , i thought we should talk . cane : if this about the marriage counselor , you know , if you do n't like her style or something , we could always change her . lily : i wo n't be going to counseling again , no matter who you pick . cane : why ? you do n't want to try anymore , or ... ? lily : i just think that we should talk , just the two of us , because we came into this marriage alone , and that 's the way it should be now . so i think that you and i need to discuss our future -- tonight . mariah : this is not good . tessa : okay , so , we go and find alice , we make her tell us where my sister is , and then we go and find crystal and put the pigs who did this to her in prison . mariah : then what do we do ? because we need a plan . we need something smart and sneaky . man , i used to be so good at this . tessa : really ? because all you 're doing is freaking me out and making me nervous ! mariah : look , not to brag , but nobody knew their way around a scam like i did . the more devious , the better . trust me , i have stories . what i do n't have right now is a plan . do you ? tessa : i 'm -- i 'm driving . mariah : okay , so what are we gon na do when we get there ? we 're just gon na go up and knock on the door and be like , `` hey ! we were just in the neighborhood , we 're looking for crystal porter , `` and then she 's gon na say , `` she 's not here right now , `` and then you 're gon na say what ? tessa : if that 's your idea of a plan , you should just go back to freaking out . mariah : then help , damn it ! tessa : i do n't know what to do , but i 'm not giving up ! i wo n't let that woman slam the door in my face , and i will make her tell me where my sister is . scott : i 'd hoped for better news from paul , but nothing suspicious showed up on this guy 's credit card . no indication of how this music promoter booked his evening with natalia . sharon : well , i suppose it was always a long shot . no one wants `` services of prostitute `` showing up on their credit card statement . you know , whether it 's alice or someone else who 's running this operation , they know how to cover their tracks . abby : seriously ? zack : what 's wrong ? abby : i have to put up with that man all day , every day . the last thing i want to do is be in the same room with him when we 're trying to have a romantic evening . you know what , i 'm gon na make reservations at top of the tower , or anywhere else . zack : hold on . i 'm gon na say something crazy . do n't have me committed . i think we should join them for dinner . additional sponsorship abby : you want to have dinner with them ? with him ? with scott grainger ? zack : i remember when i first came to town , sharon insisted that she would never use an app like designdate . she 's exactly the kind of person we need to talk to expand our user base . abby : but she 's in a relationship . granted , he is a self - satisfied jerk , but regardless , i do n't think she 's in the market for a dating app . zack : but if i can talk to them both , see what works , why they chose to come here for dinner , where they hang out , what their shared interests are ... that 's the kind of info i can use to fine - tune our algorithm . abby : please , not tonight . tonight was not supposed to be about work . it was supposed to be about fun . zack : okay . you 're right . i need to get my head out of the job for a while . we 're hitting our targets , everything is going well . [ sighs ] i think i 'm on overdrive trying to impress you as the boss and as my date . abby : and you have impressed me a million times over . zack : well , you 're not the only newman that i have something to prove to , but you are the most gorgeous . sharon : men like this music producer hire a prostitute he can call his girlfriend for the night . he pays a woman to make himself look more important and desirable . scott : i doubt the evening ended for him and natalia at the underground . sharon : yeah , i 'm sure you 're right , and i do n't want to think about it . scott : [ sighs ] i never thought i 'd see her again . you know , i got her by calling that ad on the back of the free weekly , but there 's no way a honcho like irv west would have hooked up with her in that channel . this is something bigger , more professional . [ sighs ] the credit card was a dead end , so we got to find another way to follow the money and get to the core of the organization . sharon : meanwhile , i have n't heard from crystal in ages . scott : right . sharon : every time my phone rings , whether it 's my cellphone or my home phone , i hope that it 's her , and it 's not . i mean , she 's out there somewhere . i do n't know how to help her . abby : hi . scott : hi . sharon : well , hi , you two ! abby : um , zack and i have a a favor to ask . do you mind if we join you for dinner ? tessa : why so jittery ? mariah : well , from what you told me , these people have bodyguards in there that do n't smile much . maybe there are a dozen or more in there right now , not smiling . tessa : well , if they are , there 's probably women being held prisoner , and if we find crystal , we might be able to help them , too . mariah : tessa , we should just call the police . tessa : and say what ? `` hi , officer , there might be a sex trafficking ring ground - zero in this nice house in this ritzy neighborhood . `` and then when the cops show up , alice will know we 're onto her , and then we might never see crystal again . mariah : okay , fine , you 're right , but we need to think about this from every possible angle . i mean -- is there any chance that natalia would have told alice about your run - in at the underground and that they 're waiting for us and this is a trap ? tessa : are you saying that i should give up ? mariah : no ! i 'm just saying that you need to be cautious . for your sake , for crystal 's sake . tessa : well , you 're here , too . mariah : i 'm -- i 'm not really worried about me . i can handle whatever . tessa : you 're only worried about me and crystal ? mariah : look ... i never got to know my sister , so i 'm gon na make damn sure that you spend the rest of your life with yours . cane : we do n't need to talk about this now , okay ? so there 's no pressure . you can take as long as you need . lily : yeah , mattie and i talked , and she mentioned you coming home . cane : well , is that because she wants me here or because she thinks i 'll change my mind about reed ? [ chuckles ] lily : [ laughs ] yeah , you know our daughter . i think it was a little bit of both . but she misses you , and she misses our old life . cane : i know that feeling . lily : look , the kids -- they 're growing up really fast , and , you know , they only really need us now when they want to borrow the car or money ... cane : when they need money . yeah . [ laughs ] lily : but our family has always been a safe place for them , and that 's gone now , and they miss it . cane : so do i . so ... do you think they 're ready to forgive me , or ... ? lily : i think that if you , you know , get a job and move back home , they can try and pretend like things are normal , and then after a while , things will probably settle down for real . cane : you know , i 've been trying to get a job , but it 's harder than i thought . lily : i know , i do n't think that 's a deal breaker for the kids . i think they would like to just have you here . cane : i know . i know you want what 's best for them . lily : always . cane : and , uh , you know , you sound like you know what the kids need , but , um ... what is it that you need ? lily : you hurt me . more than i thought i could be hurt . and i was really angry and confused , but ... i know that i still love you . [ car approaching ] alice : sexy , but demure . the older rich guys go bananas for this look . one final touch . anna . let me take a look at you . okay . perfect . okay . limo 's here . it 's showtime , ladies . mariah : a limo . classy . probably for their girls by the hour . tessa : the organization 's upgraded since that dive motel where i went to find crystal . mariah : yeah , they 're probably using all that money that they 're not paying their workers . or captives , i should say . tessa : [ scoffs ] mariah : what ? talk to me . tessa : it 's my sister . i mean , she 's caught up in all that . i ca n't sleep at night thinking about it . i mean , growing up , it was us against the world . we did n't have anybody else . now i have a real live friend , who 's actually here , standing by me ... god , you must think i 'm out of mind and i 'm just going through with this with having no idea what i 'm doing . mariah : hey , that 's just because i do n't want anything bad to happen to you . but i 'm not gon na abandon you . and i know that when you feel like you have to do something , you just have to go for it . so the best thing i can do is just ride shotgun and babble at you . tessa : [ sighs ] i do n't know what i did to deserve a friend like you , and i really hope i do n't lose you . mariah : why would you ? tessa : because i finally have a plan , and i do n't think you 're gon na like it . devon : you drinking alone ? hilary : some might say that i 'm enjoying my own company . devon : are you still upset about jordan ? hilary : you are 0 for 2 . devon : you know , it 's okay to admit that you cared about the guy and that you 're bummed that he 's moving on . i get it . i know that control is a big thing for you , and not having it is even bigger . hilary : is this your idea of sympathy ? because i do n't need it . my life is full . devon : oh , yeah ? what 's it full of ? hilary : well , my dessert commercial is scheduled for heavy rotation , so the residuals will be rolling in , and i am prepping a new episode that will feature some incredible new products from jabot . oh , and jack , he also wants me to be in some ads for his jabot products . and i 'm doing a deal with chelsea , so all of my onscreen wardrobe will be original , and most importantly , free . devon : that all sounds amazing . hilary : it is . devon : it 's not gon na be enough for you , though . it never is . you can fool yourself , hilary . you ca n't fool me . lily : even after everything that 's happened and all the pain that you 've caused ... i ca n't just stop loving you . cane : you know , that 's how i feel about you . you and i have been through more than most couples have , and we 've survived . because we have that love . you know , you are ... you 're the most important thing to me in this world . lily : but that 's not true . cane : of course it 's true . i love you and i love the kids . lily : yeah , and your son with juliet . cane : i will be there for him financially . lily : cane , have you -- have you thought about at all what your life is going to be like soon ? because i have . i mean , what if juliet calls you and says the baby has a fever and is at the hospital ? but yet you 're on your way to charlie 's cross - country meet . do you ignore your sick child or the son whose trust you 're trying to regain ? cane : that 's what happens when you have kids . we have two kids . we have choices . we 've learned this with mattie and charlie . lily : yeah , we talk , we plan , we divide responsibilities . and now you 'll be doing that with juliet , too . cane : but she knows where my priorities lie . lily : okay , fine , then let 's talk about money . what if mattie gets into her dream college , but yet , your youngest is enrolling in walnut grove preschool and you ca n't afford both tuitions . how do you decide ? cane : juliet got money from the settlement , so this is -- this is ridiculous . lily : i do n't think you 'll be saying that when a lawyer comes after you for educational support all the way through college , and a judge signs off on it . and do n't say that wo n't happen because no one knows the future . this child , no matter how he was conceived , deserves your love and support just as much as mattie and charlie . cane : i understand this . i do . lily : do you ? because i do n't want get in the way of a love that a child deserves . but i also ca n't forget the fact that you cheated on me and you lied to me . cane : what do you want me to say to you ? i love you . and you love me . lily : that child will be a constant reminder of what you did to this family and what you did to us . and i thought i could get past it , but i do n't think i can get past what you did to us . juliet : i 'm sorry for interrupting your evening . cane : all right , listen ... you do n't need to apologize when it comes to our baby . you do n't have to do that . juliet : i 'm scared . cane : you do n't have to be scared . 'cause i 'm here , and i 'm not gon na let anything happen to our little baby boy . there has to be something that i can do . there has to be some way that we can get past this . lily : please , just -- just go . [ sobbing ] devon : hey , mike ... i do give you credit . last time i brought up you and jordan separating , you made sure to let me know that he was going after lily , and of course , i confronted him like i 'm sure you wanted me to do , right ? hilary : what 's your point , devon ? that i 'm a manipulator ? that i know how to pull your strings ? maybe i do . maybe that 's why you simply ca n't walk by me on your way from the gym . but if you know all of my tricks , devon , then why even go to jordan ? devon : i can walk by you . and i went to jordan because he was going after lily . just because you got what you wanted does n't mean it was a bad thing . the guy 's a player . he acts like he 's your friend , gives you a shoulder to cry on , and then he makes his move . i 'm not gon na let anyone do that to my sister right now . hilary : what a hero you are . devon : thanks . so why would you want to get back with a guy like that ? hilary : i never said i did . devon : well , you do n't want him with lily . and is that because he 's so cool , or is that because you do n't like losing to people ? especially my sister . hilary : you put a lot more thought into this than i did . devon : yeah ? hilary : yeah . i just -- i do n't need a man right now . okay ? i am happy . there 's no one trying to change me or making me feel bad because they 're threatened by my success . devon : i take it that was directed at me . hilary : like i said , you put a lot more thought into this than i have . devon : well , hilary , i just -- i know you . i know you better than most people do , and i know that underneath all that drive and ambition , there 's just a vulnerable person , like anyone , that wants to be loved . hilary : [ sighs ] zack : thank you so much for doing this . i know it can be a little awkward talking to a semi - stranger about where you go on dates . sharon : well , scott is very devoted to his research , also , so we get it . scott : mm . abby : well , it 's all for the good of the company . and , you know , zack wants to make sure our clients have the best experience . zack : it 's the only way to create brand loyalty and generate word of mouth . sharon : oh , you know , i saw two women in the coffeehouse creating online profiles for designdate . abby : oh , wow ! that 's what i like to hear ! and , you know , brash & sassy just came on board as a sponsor . scott : congrats ! that 's a smart move on both ends . abby : mm . zack : it would n't have happened without abby 's pitch to victoria . she killed it . sharon : is n't it nice how well you two work together ? since , uh , you know where we like to go for breakfast and dinner , do you mind if i ask how you two balance your business and personal lives ? zack : well , if tonight is any example , i 'm blowing it on the personal side . abby : [ laughs ] not at all . actually , this is fascinating . and i found out where to get the best eggs benedict in town . but , seriously , it 's really not complicated . zack and i have the same goals , and we think that working hard and playing hard is very important . zack : you must be able to relate . scott : mm . zack : sharon mentioned your research , and abby said you 're working on a piece about sex trafficking . must be hard to put that aside and just concentrate on a nice dinner . scott : yeah , that was n't public knowledge . abby : oh , please , it 's not like we 're going to run out and beat you to a scoop . you should be happy that we even talk about you . zack : when you do think hashtag will publish the series ? scott : it 's a long - term project . the most important thing is just getting it right . zack : yeah , i mean , where do you even start ? the johns ? the girls ? scott : yeah . it 'll all be there in hashtag when the time comes , but , uh , i 'll promise you this -- the articles will blow your mind . alice : you know how this goes , right , girls ? cash up front . smile , laugh . not too often or too loudly . act as if your dates are the most important men in the room . because , to us , they are . natalia : we understand . alice : you are such terrific girls . my number one and number two . and that 's why you 're getting the good clients with the dough to blow . they want premium service , and that 's what you two will give them , right ? and that 's why they come back again and again . [ sighs ] this is so much nicer than the way things used to be . we 're moving on up . [ doorbell rings ] okay , so , that 's the driver . scoot . make me proud . come on . let 's go . oh ! [ doorbell rings ] all right . what 'd you forget ? oh ! [ screams ] `` the young and the restless `` will continue . juliet : hey . i 'm doing fine . thanks for asking . hey , i wanted to thank you again for coming to the hospital . cane : look , i 'm not really in the mood to talk right now , okay ? juliet : is it about lily ? did you two talk ? what 'd she say ? cane : [ sighs ] devon : you told him all of that ? lily : yeah . i was n't sure what i was gon na say , but then ... it all started spilling out , you know ? everything that i have been thinking but did n't say out loud before . devon : about the baby ? lily : i just imagine cane at the hospital with juliet while she 's giving birth and him coaching her through it and then holding the baby in his arms . photos on his phone . i mean , is the baby gon na have his last name ? it 's like -- all of this started because cane cheated on me and then lied about it . devon : well , it 's -- it 's not the first time cane 's kept the truth from you . lily : so many lies over the years , but this one will never go away . devon : well , look , if it makes you feel better , i do think that you made the right decision . lily : yeah , but did i ? i mean , mattie and charlie , they were finally ready for him to come back home . devon : but what -- what kind of message does that send ? everything 's forgiven and that their father can break your heart without being held accountable ? you deserve a lot better than that . lily : [ sighs ] i did n't even know what i was gon na say when i had him come over . i mean , i really did want to talk things through , but then everything started coming up , you know ? juliet and the baby and ... i know the baby is innocent in all of this , but cane isn't . he made me feel like a fool . and i -- i ca n't be in limbo anymore . neither can the kids . it has to be a clean break . devon : well , have you told them ? lily : [ sighs ] no . it 's gon na be so awful . i thought i would feel at peace with my decision , but instead , i just feel hollow , like a part of me has been ripped out . devon : it 's because it has . the love does n't go away just because you realized you ca n't be with someone . lily : yeah , but the man i loved ... is gone . the person that i vowed to be with forever . devon : it 's okay . it 's all right . sharon : did you get enough information ? because i think it 's about time for us to head out . scott : you 're right . i did n't realize how late it was . zack : yeah , thanks for your help . sorry for hijacking your night . let me get this . abby : no ! let newman get it . zack : she 's the boss . sharon : well , thank you both ! abby : thank you for your insight . sharon : yeah . i wish you all the best with your new app . abby : thank you . yeah , it 's only gon na get better . scott : i 'll see you at the office . abby : ca n't wait . zack : [ sighs ] i learned so much . thank you . i owe you one . abby : actually , it was fascinating . zack : you know , scott and sharon , they do n't have that much in common , but somehow it works . abby : no , i was -- i was talking about you . it was amazing watching you dig in , ask questions ... it was kind of sexy . you have this killer business instinct . i think that 's why my dad likes you so much . zack : when i 'm interested in something , it 's easy for me to dive in . i 'm just a tech guy , but this stuff that scott 's pursuing , it seems important , the whole sex trafficking thing . that 's heavy stuff . i ca n't imagine getting anywhere near something like that . i like my warm , safe office . abby : well , it sound like admire scott . zack : i appreciate anyone who hustles for what they believe in . abby : mm . please do n't tell me you 're trying to start a bromance with scott grainger . one dinner was plenty . i get enough of that guy at the office . zack : i promise , from here on , i 'll keep you out of it . mariah : this is not a plan . this is a crime , and now i 'm an accomplice . i have a record . i do n't need to add to it . tessa : you said you were in , okay ? i can pull over and let you out . she still has n't seen me . mariah : i 'm not bailing on you now . tessa : i 'm giving you permission . mariah : i 'm not leaving . even if you go to prison , i 'm gon na be right there beside you . alice : who are you ? ! what do you want ? ! tessa : just shut up and stop moving ! mariah : whoa ! whoa ! tessa : you 'll know soon enough ! oh ! juliet : you ca n't even talk to me . cane : lily said she ca n't get past the baby . juliet : meaning what ? she 's giving up ? cane : meaning she said what she said . and then she asked me to leave . juliet : i 'm so sorry . cane : [ chuckles ] juliet : maybe she 'll change her mind , maybe ... cane : maybe there are no more maybes because she made a decision that was for once and for all except , uh , she made it without me . yeah . juliet : i 've caused so much damage in your life . all because of one night in tokyo . all the pain for everyone , more than we could have ever known ... okay . i 'm -- i 'm gon na let you be . alice : please ! [ screams ] [ exhales sharply ] where are we ? ! what are you gon na do to me ? ! tessa : just do n't move ! alice : [ whimpering ] i 've got money , if that 's what you want . please ! please ! tessa : ugh ! so you 're a delicate little flower now , huh ? alice : please do n't hurt me ! [ whimpering ] can i have some water ? i 'm so thirsty ! i 'm so thirsty ! [ crying , panting ] i know you . tessa : you know my sister crystal . yeah , that 's right . she 's one of your girls , is n't she ? one of the young women that you take in off the street because you think no one 's looking for them . that no one will care if they fall off the face of the earth . but crystal is n't alone in this world . i 'm here . sucks for you . alice : that 's why you came to my house . you asked for a phone . tessa : and you slammed the door in my face . what are you hiding , alice ? who are you hiding ? was my sister in that prison that you call a house ? i have the cops on speed dial . you can talk to me or you can talk to them . abby : what was that for ? zack : there 's a guard gate at your place . 24/7 security , correct ? abby : and ? are you some kind of wanted criminal ? zack : i assume your dad is apprised of all the comings and goings at the ranch . as in visitors who show up at night and do n't leave until the morning . abby : what are you trying to say ? zack : the rooms here are nice , and nobody cares who checks out or in . abby : [ chuckles ] that was to tide you over . because you will be taking me home tonight , and security will indeed notice when you leave . tonight . [ chuckles ] scott : next time , no double date . i promise . sharon : [ chuckles ] i did n't mind . i know some people do n't think we make sense as a couple , but i had fun explaining why we 're a good fit . you know , zack seems like a decent guy . he seems genuinely interested in your series on sex trafficking . scott : yeah . mariah : hi . hey ! scott : hi . mariah : i did n't hear you guys come in . sharon : uh , are you drinking that or bathing in it ? mariah : what ? sharon : that 's a lot of water . mariah : oh . yeah . um , it is . um , it 's for tessa and me . we 're working on a project , and it 's probably gon na take all night , so bye . [ chuckles ] [ door closes ] lily : you did n't have to stay . devon : do n't be silly . lily : i feel bad . i cried all over you . devon : i 'm pretty sure i can afford a dry cleaning bill . lily : [ laughs ] that 's true . you 've always been there for me . devon : you 've been there for me since just about day 1 . you got the better end of the deal , though . lily : [ laughs ] i 'm really glad the twins have each other . devon : they have you , too . lily : [ scoffs ] yeah , i 'm doing a great job . devon : you are doing a great job . hey . you are . you really are . you did n't start this mess , but you 're getting them through it . and you have to think about yourself , and the first step in that is being honest about what you can and ca n't live with . i think leveling with cane , it was a big move for you . do you know what you 're gon na do next ? lily : talking with him was hard , but ... the next step is gon na be harder . hilary : can i help you ? cane : i thought you might want to know that lily said she ca n't get past the fact that i 'm fathering a child with juliet . we 're through . hilary : i -- i don't ... [ sighs ] i do n't know what to say . cane : maybe you should keep your opinions and your unwanted advice to yourself because , you see , i took it , and that was my mistake . hilary : uh , no , your mistake was getting fall - down drunk on a business trip and sleeping with a co - worker , okay ? but lily , she still loves you . okay ? cane : lily still loves me . hilary : you should go focus on your wife and prove to her that you can be a good husband again . cane : she 's already made up her mind . do you understand what i 'm saying to you ? hilary : that 's ridiculous . lily , she 's gon na cry and she 's gon na be all dramatic , but listen to me , she will nobly welcome you back into her life . cane : right . hilary : so you need to be there fighting for her when she 's ready . cane : for what ? so you can have another shot at jordan ? sweetheart , we 're losers . we both lost this time . you get it ? hilary : yeah , speak for yourself . yeah , you 're the one that 's giving up on your family . cane : no . i 'm not giving up on my family . hilary : [ sighs ] sharon : well , i 'm glad you 're having fun , but do go to bed at a decent hour , okay , faith ? i love you , too . scott : faith 's first night back with you , and she 's at a sleepover instead ? sharon : she really missed her friends when she was away at camp . but at least we had the day together . you know , when i went through some of my rough patches , the kids felt like they needed to look after me . i was a little needy . so i 'm glad faith feels like she can go , have fun , and i 'm gon na be perfectly fine . but i guess i am getting a taste of things to come when my baby goes away to college . scott : well , look at the bright side -- maybe someday she 'll be living upstairs like mariah . [ chuckles ] sharon : [ laughs ] hey , did she seem a little jumpy to you ? scott : you know , i did n't notice . i , uh ... i was just distracted doing calculations in my head . you know , if mariah and tessa are out all night , then you have an empty house . all alone . sharon : but i 'm not alone . you 're here with me . scott : my point exactly . alice : [ coughing , panting ] my throat ... so dry . [ coughing ] mariah : did she say anything about crystal ? tessa : no , she 's too busy with her throat drama . she can hardly get a word out . mariah : okay , well , let 's move this along and get some answers . alice : [ panting ] mariah : hey . hi . here it is . drink up . alice : [ panting ] no . mariah : what ? it 's not poisoned . alice : no ! no ! no ! cassie ? ! [ gasps ] [ groans ] [ next_on ] devon : why do i get the feeling that you do n't think mariah and i are okay ? cane : i ca n't just make the baby disappear , can i ? hilary : yeah , you 're right , but you can make juliet disappear . lily : i made a decision . i want to file for divorce . | tessa and mariah are in a car , heading for alice 's house to see if they can get alice to tell them where crystal is . mariah makes tessa nervous by asking her if she has a plan . scott and sharon discuss the sex trafficking ring over dinner at the athletic club . abby and zach walk in and abby is less than happy that zach mentions joining scott and sharon for dinner . zach explains to abby as to why he wants to have dinner with them . scott and sharon discuss as to how to get more information on the sex ring . abby and zach walk up and asks if they can join them for dinner . mariah wants to call the police about this whole mess but tessa fears that she will never see crystal again . tessa tells mariah that she has a plan that she may not go along with . cane and lily have a talk about the children and them wanting their lives to get back to normal and for cane to come home . cane asks lily as to what she wants . lily admits that she still loves him no matter what but then she starts to tell him about the things that could happen concerning juliet 's child . alice gets her `` girls `` ready for their big dates . hilary is having a drink at the athletic club dining room when devon stops by to talk to her . they begin to discuss lily and how that jordan is attracted to her . devon admits that he will let no one hurt lily . lily gets up and opens the door and tells cane to please go through tears in her eyes . lily admits that she can not get past him fathering a child with juliet . juliet looks at herself in the mirror and thinks about her conversation with cane in the hospital where he tells her that he will never let something happen to the baby . | <s>[INST] [ door opens ] cane : hey . i came as soon as i got your message . it 's good to see you . lily : yeah , i thought we should talk . cane : if this about the marriage counselor , you know , if you do n't like her style or something , we could always change her . lily : i wo n't be going to counseling again , no matter who you pick . cane : why ? you do n't want to try anymore , or ... ? lily : i just think that we should talk , just the two of us , because we came into this marriage alone , and that 's the way it should be now . so i think that you and i need to discuss our future -- tonight . mariah : this is not good . tessa : okay , so , we go and find alice , we make her tell us where my sister is , and then we go and find crystal and put the pigs who did this to her in prison . mariah : then what do we do ? because we need a plan . we need something smart and sneaky . man , i used to be so good at this . tessa : really ? because all you 're doing is freaking me out and making me nervous ! mariah : look , not to brag , but nobody knew their way around a scam like i did . the more devious , the better . trust me , i have stories . what i do n't have right now is a plan . do you ? tessa : i 'm -- i 'm driving . mariah : okay , so what are we gon na do when we get there ? we 're just gon na go up and knock on the door and be like , `` hey ! we were just in the neighborhood , we 're looking for crystal porter , `` and then she 's gon na say , `` she 's not here right now , `` and then you 're gon na say what ? tessa : if that 's your idea of a plan , you should just go back to freaking out . mariah : then help , damn it ! tessa : i do n't know what to do , but i 'm not giving up ! i wo n't let that woman slam the door in my face , and i will make her tell me where my sister is . scott : i 'd hoped for better news from paul , but nothing suspicious showed up on this guy 's credit card . no indication of how this music promoter booked his evening with natalia . sharon : well , i suppose it was always a long shot . no one wants `` services of prostitute `` showing up on their credit card statement . you know , whether it 's alice or someone else who 's running this operation , they know how to cover their tracks . abby : seriously ? zack : what 's wrong ? abby : i have to put up with that man all day , every day . the last thing i want to do is be in the same room with him when we 're trying to have a romantic evening . you know what , i 'm gon na make reservations at top of the tower , or anywhere else . zack : hold on . i 'm gon na say something crazy . do n't have me committed . i think we should join them for dinner . additional sponsorship abby : you want to have dinner with them ? with him ? with scott grainger ? zack : i remember when i first came to town , sharon insisted that she would never use an app like designdate . she 's exactly the kind of person we need to talk to expand our user base . abby : but she 's in a relationship . granted , he is a self - satisfied jerk , but regardless , i do n't think she 's in the market for a dating app . zack : but if i can talk to them both , see what works , why they chose to come here for dinner , where they hang out , what their shared interests are ... that 's the kind of info i can use to fine - tune our algorithm . abby : please , not tonight . tonight was not supposed to be about work . it was supposed to be about fun . zack : okay . you 're right . i need to get my head out of the job for a while . we 're hitting our targets , everything is going well . [ sighs ] i think i 'm on overdrive trying to impress you as the boss and as my date . abby : and you have impressed me a million times over . zack : well , you 're not the only newman that i have something to prove to , but you are the most gorgeous . sharon : men like this music producer hire a prostitute he can call his girlfriend for the night . he pays a woman to make himself look more important and desirable . scott : i doubt the evening ended for him and natalia at the underground . sharon : yeah , i 'm sure you 're right , and i do n't want to think about it . scott : [ sighs ] i never thought i 'd see her again . you know , i got her by calling that ad on the back of the free weekly , but there 's no way a honcho like irv west would have hooked up with her in that channel . this is something bigger , more professional . [ sighs ] the credit card was a dead end , so we got to find another way to follow the money and get to the core of the organization . sharon : meanwhile , i have n't heard from crystal in ages . scott : right . sharon : every time my phone rings , whether it 's my cellphone or my home phone , i hope that it 's her , and it 's not . i mean , she 's out there somewhere . i do n't know how to help her . abby : hi . scott : hi . sharon : well , hi , you two ! abby : um , zack and i have a a favor to ask . do you mind if we join you for dinner ? tessa : why so jittery ? mariah : well , from what you told me , these people have bodyguards in there that do n't smile much . maybe there are a dozen or more in there right now , not smiling . tessa : well , if they are , there 's probably women being held prisoner , and if we find crystal , we might be able to help them , too . mariah : tessa , we should just call the police . tessa : and say what ? `` hi , officer , there might be a sex trafficking ring ground - zero in this nice house in this ritzy neighborhood . `` and then when the cops show up , alice will know we 're onto her , and then we might never see crystal again . mariah : okay , fine , you 're right , but we need to think about this from every possible angle . i mean -- is there any chance that natalia would have told alice about your run - in at the underground and that they 're waiting for us and this is a trap ? tessa : are you saying that i should give up ? mariah : no ! i 'm just saying that you need to be cautious . for your sake , for crystal 's sake . tessa : well , you 're here , too . mariah : i 'm -- i 'm not really worried about me . i can handle whatever . tessa : you 're only worried about me and crystal ? mariah : look ... i never got to know my sister , so i 'm gon na make damn sure that you spend the rest of your life with yours . cane : we do n't need to talk about this now , okay ? so there 's no pressure . you can take as long as you need . lily : yeah , mattie and i talked , and she mentioned you coming home . cane : well , is that because she wants me here or because she thinks i 'll change my mind about reed ? [ chuckles ] lily : [ laughs ] yeah , you know our daughter . i think it was a little bit of both . but she misses you , and she misses our old life . cane : i know that feeling . lily : look , the kids -- they 're growing up really fast , and , you know , they only really need us now when they want to borrow the car or money ... cane : when they need money . yeah . [ laughs ] lily : but our family has always been a safe place for them , and that 's gone now , and they miss it . cane : so do i . so ... do you think they 're ready to forgive me , or ... ? lily : i think that if you , you know , get a job and move back home , they can try and pretend like things are normal , and then after a while , things will probably settle down for real . cane : you know , i 've been trying to get a job , but it 's harder than i thought . lily : i know , i do n't think that 's a deal breaker for the kids . i think they would like to just have you here . cane : i know . i know you want what 's best for them . lily : always . cane : and , uh , you know , you sound like you know what the kids need , but , um ... what is it that you need ? lily : you hurt me . more than i thought i could be hurt . and i was really angry and confused , but ... i know that i still love you . [ car approaching ] alice : sexy , but demure . the older rich guys go bananas for this look . one final touch . anna . let me take a look at you . okay . perfect . okay . limo 's here . it 's showtime , ladies . mariah : a limo . classy . probably for their girls by the hour . tessa : the organization 's upgraded since that dive motel where i went to find crystal . mariah : yeah , they 're probably using all that money that they 're not paying their workers . or captives , i should say . tessa : [ scoffs ] mariah : what ? talk to me . tessa : it 's my sister . i mean , she 's caught up in all that . i ca n't sleep at night thinking about it . i mean , growing up , it was us against the world . we did n't have anybody else . now i have a real live friend , who 's actually here , standing by me ... god , you must think i 'm out of mind and i 'm just going through with this with having no idea what i 'm doing . mariah : hey , that 's just because i do n't want anything bad to happen to you . but i 'm not gon na abandon you . and i know that when you feel like you have to do something , you just have to go for it . so the best thing i can do is just ride shotgun and babble at you . tessa : [ sighs ] i do n't know what i did to deserve a friend like you , and i really hope i do n't lose you . mariah : why would you ? tessa : because i finally have a plan , and i do n't think you 're gon na like it . devon : you drinking alone ? hilary : some might say that i 'm enjoying my own company . devon : are you still upset about jordan ? hilary : you are 0 for 2 . devon : you know , it 's okay to admit that you cared about the guy and that you 're bummed that he 's moving on . i get it . i know that control is a big thing for you , and not having it is even bigger . hilary : is this your idea of sympathy ? because i do n't need it . my life is full . devon : oh , yeah ? what 's it full of ? hilary : well , my dessert commercial is scheduled for heavy rotation , so the residuals will be rolling in , and i am prepping a new episode that will feature some incredible new products from jabot . oh , and jack , he also wants me to be in some ads for his jabot products . and i 'm doing a deal with chelsea , so all of my onscreen wardrobe will be original , and most importantly , free . devon : that all sounds amazing . hilary : it is . devon : it 's not gon na be enough for you , though . it never is . you can fool yourself , hilary . you ca n't fool me . lily : even after everything that 's happened and all the pain that you 've caused ... i ca n't just stop loving you . cane : you know , that 's how i feel about you . you and i have been through more than most couples have , and we 've survived . because we have that love . you know , you are ... you 're the most important thing to me in this world . lily : but that 's not true . cane : of course it 's true . i love you and i love the kids . lily : yeah , and your son with juliet . cane : i will be there for him financially . lily : cane , have you -- have you thought about at all what your life is going to be like soon ? because i have . i mean , what if juliet calls you and says the baby has a fever and is at the hospital ? but yet you 're on your way to charlie 's cross - country meet . do you ignore your sick child or the son whose trust you 're trying to regain ? cane : that 's what happens when you have kids . we have two kids . we have choices . we 've learned this with mattie and charlie . lily : yeah , we talk , we plan , we divide responsibilities . and now you 'll be doing that with juliet , too . cane : but she knows where my priorities lie . lily : okay , fine , then let 's talk about money . what if mattie gets into her dream college , but yet , your youngest is enrolling in walnut grove preschool and you ca n't afford both tuitions . how do you decide ? cane : juliet got money from the settlement , so this is -- this is ridiculous . lily : i do n't think you 'll be saying that when a lawyer comes after you for educational support all the way through college , and a judge signs off on it . and do n't say that wo n't happen because no one knows the future . this child , no matter how he was conceived , deserves your love and support just as much as mattie and charlie . cane : i understand this . i do . lily : do you ? because i do n't want get in the way of a love that a child deserves . but i also ca n't forget the fact that you cheated on me and you lied to me . cane : what do you want me to say to you ? i love you . and you love me . lily : that child will be a constant reminder of what you did to this family and what you did to us . and i thought i could get past it , but i do n't think i can get past what you did to us . juliet : i 'm sorry for interrupting your evening . cane : all right , listen ... you do n't need to apologize when it comes to our baby . you do n't have to do that . juliet : i 'm scared . cane : you do n't have to be scared . 'cause i 'm here , and i 'm not gon na let anything happen to our little baby boy . there has to be something that i can do . there has to be some way that we can get past this . lily : please , just -- just go . [ sobbing ] devon : hey , mike ... i do give you credit . last time i brought up you and jordan separating , you made sure to let me know that he was going after lily , and of course , i confronted him like i 'm sure you wanted me to do , right ? hilary : what 's your point , devon ? that i 'm a manipulator ? that i know how to pull your strings ? maybe i do . maybe that 's why you simply ca n't walk by me on your way from the gym . but if you know all of my tricks , devon , then why even go to jordan ? devon : i can walk by you . and i went to jordan because he was going after lily . just because you got what you wanted does n't mean it was a bad thing . the guy 's a player . he acts like he 's your friend , gives you a shoulder to cry on , and then he makes his move . i 'm not gon na let anyone do that to my sister right now . hilary : what a hero you are . devon : thanks . so why would you want to get back with a guy like that ? hilary : i never said i did . devon : well , you do n't want him with lily . and is that because he 's so cool , or is that because you do n't like losing to people ? especially my sister . hilary : you put a lot more thought into this than i did . devon : yeah ? hilary : yeah . i just -- i do n't need a man right now . okay ? i am happy . there 's no one trying to change me or making me feel bad because they 're threatened by my success . devon : i take it that was directed at me . hilary : like i said , you put a lot more thought into this than i have . devon : well , hilary , i just -- i know you . i know you better than most people do , and i know that underneath all that drive and ambition , there 's just a vulnerable person , like anyone , that wants to be loved . hilary : [ sighs ] zack : thank you so much for doing this . i know it can be a little awkward talking to a semi - stranger about where you go on dates . sharon : well , scott is very devoted to his research , also , so we get it . scott : mm . abby : well , it 's all for the good of the company . and , you know , zack wants to make sure our clients have the best experience . zack : it 's the only way to create brand loyalty and generate word of mouth . sharon : oh , you know , i saw two women in the coffeehouse creating online profiles for designdate . abby : oh , wow ! that 's what i like to hear ! and , you know , brash & sassy just came on board as a sponsor . scott : congrats ! that 's a smart move on both ends . abby : mm . zack : it would n't have happened without abby 's pitch to victoria . she killed it . sharon : is n't it nice how well you two work together ? since , uh , you know where we like to go for breakfast and dinner , do you mind if i ask how you two balance your business and personal lives ? zack : well , if tonight is any example , i 'm blowing it on the personal side . abby : [ laughs ] not at all . actually , this is fascinating . and i found out where to get the best eggs benedict in town . but , seriously , it 's really not complicated . zack and i have the same goals , and we think that working hard and playing hard is very important . zack : you must be able to relate . scott : mm . zack : sharon mentioned your research , and abby said you 're working on a piece about sex trafficking . must be hard to put that aside and just concentrate on a nice dinner . scott : yeah , that was n't public knowledge . abby : oh , please , it 's not like we 're going to run out and beat you to a scoop . you should be happy that we even talk about you . zack : when you do think hashtag will publish the series ? scott : it 's a long - term project . the most important thing is just getting it right . zack : yeah , i mean , where do you even start ? the johns ? the girls ? scott : yeah . it 'll all be there in hashtag when the time comes , but , uh , i 'll promise you this -- the articles will blow your mind . alice : you know how this goes , right , girls ? cash up front . smile , laugh . not too often or too loudly . act as if your dates are the most important men in the room . because , to us , they are . natalia : we understand . alice : you are such terrific girls . my number one and number two . and that 's why you 're getting the good clients with the dough to blow . they want premium service , and that 's what you two will give them , right ? and that 's why they come back again and again . [ sighs ] this is so much nicer than the way things used to be . we 're moving on up . [ doorbell rings ] okay , so , that 's the driver . scoot . make me proud . come on . let 's go . oh !

[ screams ] `` the young and the restless `` will continue . juliet : hey . i 'm doing fine . thanks for asking . hey , i wanted to thank you again for coming to the hospital . cane : look , i 'm not really in the mood to talk right now , okay ? juliet : is it about lily ? did you two talk ? what 'd she say ? cane : [ sighs ] devon : you told him all of that ? lily : yeah . i was n't sure what i was gon na say , but then ... it all started spilling out , you know ? everything that i have been thinking but did n't say out loud before . devon : about the baby ? lily : i just imagine cane at the hospital with juliet while she 's giving birth and him coaching her through it and then holding the baby in his arms . photos on his phone . i mean , is the baby gon na have his last name ? it 's like -- all of this started because cane cheated on me and then lied about it . devon : well , it 's -- it 's not the first time cane 's kept the truth from you . lily : so many lies over the years , but this one will never go away . devon : well , look , if it makes you feel better , i do think that you made the right decision . lily : yeah , but did i ? i mean , mattie and charlie , they were finally ready for him to come back home . devon : but what -- what kind of message does that send ? everything 's forgiven and that their father can break your heart without being held accountable ? you deserve a lot better than that . lily : [ sighs ] i did n't even know what i was gon na say when i had him come over . i mean , i really did want to talk things through , but then everything started coming up , you know ? juliet and the baby and ... i know the baby is innocent in all of this , but cane isn't . he made me feel like a fool . and i -- i ca n't be in limbo anymore . neither can the kids . it has to be a clean break . devon : well , have you told them ? lily : [ sighs ] no . it 's gon na be so awful . i thought i would feel at peace with my decision , but instead , i just feel hollow , like a part of me has been ripped out . devon : it 's because it has . the love does n't go away just because you realized you ca n't be with someone . lily : yeah , but the man i loved ... is gone . the person that i vowed to be with forever . devon : it 's okay . it 's all right . sharon : did you get enough information ? because i think it 's about time for us to head out . scott : you 're right . i did n't realize how late it was . zack : yeah , thanks for your help . sorry for hijacking your night . let me get this . abby : no ! let newman get it . zack : she 's the boss . sharon : well , thank you both ! abby : thank you for your insight . sharon : yeah . i wish you all the best with your new app . abby : thank you . yeah , it 's only gon na get better . scott : i 'll see you at the office . abby : ca n't wait . zack : [ sighs ] i learned so much . thank you . i owe you one . abby : actually , it was fascinating . zack : you know , scott and sharon , they do n't have that much in common , but somehow it works . abby : no , i was -- i was talking about you . it was amazing watching you dig in , ask questions ... it was kind of sexy . you have this killer business instinct . i think that 's why my dad likes you so much . zack : when i 'm interested in something , it 's easy for me to dive in . i 'm just a tech guy , but this stuff that scott 's pursuing , it seems important , the whole sex trafficking thing . that 's heavy stuff . i ca n't imagine getting anywhere near something like that . i like my warm , safe office . abby : well , it sound like admire scott . zack : i appreciate anyone who hustles for what they believe in . abby : mm . please do n't tell me you 're trying to start a bromance with scott grainger . one dinner was plenty . i get enough of that guy at the office . zack : i promise , from here on , i 'll keep you out of it . mariah : this is not a plan . this is a crime , and now i 'm an accomplice . i have a record . i do n't need to add to it . tessa : you said you were in , okay ? i can pull over and let you out . she still has n't seen me . mariah : i 'm not bailing on you now . tessa : i 'm giving you permission . mariah : i 'm not leaving . even if you go to prison , i 'm gon na be right there beside you . alice : who are you ? ! what do you want ? ! tessa : just shut up and stop moving ! mariah : whoa ! whoa ! tessa : you 'll know soon enough ! oh ! juliet : you ca n't even talk to me . cane : lily said she ca n't get past the baby . juliet : meaning what ? she 's giving up ? cane : meaning she said what she said . and then she asked me to leave . juliet : i 'm so sorry . cane : [ chuckles ] juliet : maybe she 'll change her mind , maybe ... cane : maybe there are no more maybes because she made a decision that was for once and for all except , uh , she made it without me . yeah . juliet : i 've caused so much damage in your life . all because of one night in tokyo . all the pain for everyone , more than we could have ever known ... okay . i 'm -- i 'm gon na let you be . alice : please ! [ screams ] [ exhales sharply ] where are we ? ! what are you gon na do to me ? ! tessa : just do n't move ! alice : [ whimpering ] i 've got money , if that 's what you want . please ! please ! tessa : ugh ! so you 're a delicate little flower now , huh ? alice : please do n't hurt me ! [ whimpering ] can i have some water ? i 'm so thirsty ! i 'm so thirsty ! [ crying , panting ] i know you . tessa : you know my sister crystal . yeah , that 's right . she 's one of your girls , is n't she ? one of the young women that you take in off the street because you think no one 's looking for them . that no one will care if they fall off the face of the earth . but crystal is n't alone in this world . i 'm here . sucks for you . alice : that 's why you came to my house . you asked for a phone . tessa : and you slammed the door in my face . what are you hiding , alice ? who are you hiding ? was my sister in that prison that you call a house ? i have the cops on speed dial . you can talk to me or you can talk to them . abby : what was that for ? zack : there 's a guard gate at your place . 24/7 security , correct ? abby : and ? are you some kind of wanted criminal ? zack : i assume your dad is apprised of all the comings and goings at the ranch . as in visitors who show up at night and do n't leave until the morning . abby : what are you trying to say ? zack : the rooms here are nice , and nobody cares who checks out or in . abby : [ chuckles ] that was to tide you over . because you will be taking me home tonight , and security will indeed notice when you leave . tonight . [ chuckles ] scott : next time , no double date . i promise . sharon : [ chuckles ] i did n't mind . i know some people do n't think we make sense as a couple , but i had fun explaining why we 're a good fit . you know , zack seems like a decent guy . he seems genuinely interested in your series on sex trafficking . scott : yeah . mariah : hi . hey ! scott : hi . mariah : i did n't hear you guys come in . sharon : uh , are you drinking that or bathing in it ? mariah : what ? sharon : that 's a lot of water . mariah : oh . yeah . um , it is . um , it 's for tessa and me . we 're working on a project , and it 's probably gon na take all night , so bye .

[ sighs ] i do n't know what to say . cane : maybe you should keep your opinions and your unwanted advice to yourself because , you see , i took it , and that was my mistake . hilary : uh , no , your mistake was getting fall - down drunk on a business trip and sleeping with a co - worker , okay ? but lily , she still loves you . okay ? cane : lily still loves me . hilary : you should go focus on your wife and prove to her that you can be a good husband again . cane : she 's already made up her mind . do you understand what i 'm saying to you ? hilary : that 's ridiculous . lily , she 's gon na cry and she 's gon na be all dramatic , but listen to me , she will nobly welcome you back into her life . cane : right . hilary : so you need to be there fighting for her when she 's ready . cane : for what ? so you can have another shot at jordan ? sweetheart , we 're losers . we both lost this time . you get it ? hilary : yeah , speak for yourself . yeah , you 're the one that 's giving up on your family . cane : no . i 'm not giving up on my family . hilary : [ sighs ] sharon : well , i 'm glad you 're having fun , but do go to bed at a decent hour , okay , faith ? i love you , too . scott : faith 's first night back with you , and she 's at a sleepover instead ? sharon : she really missed her friends when she was away at camp . but at least we had the day together . you know , when i went through some of my rough patches , the kids felt like they needed to look after me . i was a little needy . so i 'm glad faith feels like she can go , have fun , and i 'm gon na be perfectly fine . but i guess i am getting a taste of things to come when my baby goes away to college . scott : well , look at the bright side -- maybe someday she 'll be living upstairs like mariah . [ chuckles ] sharon : [ laughs ] hey , did she seem a little jumpy to you ? scott : you know , i did n't notice . i , uh ... i was just distracted doing calculations in my head . you know , if mariah and tessa are out all night , then you have an empty house . all alone . sharon : but i 'm not alone . you 're here with me . scott : my point exactly . alice : [ coughing , panting ] my throat ... so dry . [ coughing ] mariah : did she say anything about crystal ? tessa : no , she 's too busy with her throat drama . she can hardly get a word out . mariah : okay , well , let 's move this along and get some answers . alice : [ panting ] mariah : hey . hi . here it is . drink up . alice : [ panting ] no . mariah : what ? it 's not poisoned . alice : no ! no ! no ! cassie ? !

brooke : i tried to convince hope not to give up . i know that steffy and liam have had a history , and it was just a kiss . ridge : so you 're not angry . brooke : yes , of course i 'm angry . i 'm heartbroken . liam proposed to hope . we should be celebrating right now , ridge . but because of thomas and because of his interference , he 's just -- ridge : thomas had nothing to do with this kiss . brooke : he 's been a destructive force in our lives for a very long time . i do n't like this either . i wish you were living here . i wish you were back home with me . ridge : yeah , i want that , too , but how can i put all this behind us when every time i turn around , you blame thomas for something ? brooke : of course i do because this is all his fault . that 's the reason why you 're living over at eric 's , away from me , while shauna is living across the courtyard . ridge : shauna has nothing to do with this . but there is something you should know . shauna : how do you think it 's going over there ? quinn : well , we can go down to the guesthouse and sneak a peek . shauna : no .

[ laughs ] she , uh -- she keeps telling me that if i was actually meant to marry sally that i would 've made it happen already . flo : quinn really has n't warmed up to her at all ? wyatt : come on . you know my mom and how fierce she can be about loyalty . flo : yes . so i 'm guessing that she talks about me as much as my mom talks about you , which would be a lot . wyatt : yeah , pretty much . yeah . she -- [ chuckles ] she just , uh -- she just does n't want me to forget how much we meant to each other . not that i could ever forget about that . it 's just , you know , things have kinda changed between us lately , and ... i mean , some things never will , i guess . brooke : i do n't wan na talk about shauna . ridge : i realize she 's a sensitive subject . brooke : shauna encouraged flo to keep on lying about beth . ridge : i know . but , look , they both tried to make up for that . look what flo did for katie . brooke : [ sighs ] okay . we appreciate flos sacrifice , but that does n't absolve her , ridge . and it certainly does n't change the way i feel about her mother . ridge : i know that . but shauna , she 's been trying to help heal this family , and she supports me and what i 'm trying to do for thomas . brooke : oh , my god . you know , she would say or do anything just to be near you . you know , i 'm sorry i brought her up . i do n't wan na talk about her . i wan na talk about us . ridge : it is about us . and i 'm trying to fix this . and ... i ca n't if there 's secrets between us . i do n't -- i do n't want that , not even little ones . brooke : so , you have a secret about shauna ? shauna and i , we 've been spending a lot of time at dad 's house . and she knows how hard i 'm trying to -- to fix this relationship , and -- and there were a few moments when our friendship crossed a line . brooke : crossed a line . ridge : we kissed . brooke : [ sighs ] wyatt : is that why you have n't been around lately ? trying to hit the reset button . flo : yeah . this last year was just ... crazy . so kinda wanted some time to myself to ... think about who i really am and what really matters to me . wyatt : did it work ? flo : yeah . it did . wyatt : good . back to your old self again . flo : well , minus a kidney . wyatt : oh . right . yeah . who could forget . katie is taking really good care of that ... flo : oh , good . wyatt : ... by the way . yeah . [ cellphone whistles ] [ cellphone chimes ] flo : it 's probably my mom texting from the house again . wyatt : i mean , our mothers are not very subtle , are they ? flo : [ laughs ] no . wyatt : oh . it 's katie . flo : yeah , she texted me , too . wyatt : she wants us to get together . flo : she wants me to come . what 's going on ? wyatt : you do n't wan na go ? flo : well , do you think that brooke and hope are going to be there ? wyatt : i do n't know . i do n't know . i do n't know how they feel about you , but i do know that katie is very grateful . she ca n't stop talking about how thankful she is and how much she owes you . i do n't know . i -- i -- i think -- i think you should go . flo : will you come with me ? wyatt : um ... quinn : has ridge come back to visit ? shauna : no . quinn : no ? not since he signed the divorce papers ? shauna : i 've been here for ridge as a friend , but he 's still devoted to brooke . quinn : well , he 's hoping that she gets over her animosity towards thomas . but from what i hear from eric , that 's not happening . shauna : i ca n't believe it . quinn : what ? that brooke can be so stubborn ? shauna : and reckless . i mean , does n't she realize what she would be giving up ? quinn : brooke does n't know what happened in the guesthouse . shauna : well , there 's no reason for her to know . i mean , ridge did n't betray her . and if i had a man like that devoted to me , i would do anything i could to keep him . quinn : yeah . i think brooke would feel a little bit differently if she knew how close you and ridge have gotten . shauna : well , i ca n't deny that we do have a powerful connection . quinn : hmm . shauna : but so do he and brooke . quinn : yes . but he 's been kissing you , and all he does is argue with her . brooke : i do n't believe it , ridge . you did n't do that . really ? did you really kiss shauna ? ridge : it did n't go any further . brooke : [ sighs ] not for her lack of trying , i 'm sure . i told you about her . i warned you that this would happen . ridge : she 's not ... she 's a friend . she knows i wan na be with you . she 's aware of that . then why would she kiss you ? and more importantly , why would you kiss her ? ridge : i made a mistake . and i -- i -- i wan na tell you everything . that 's -- i do n't want there to be any more secrets . that 's why i told you . brooke : oh , god . okay . yeah . well , now we have to deal with this , do n't we ? and on top of everything else . on top of everything trying to tear us apart . first there 's thomas , and now there 's shauna . why , ridge ? i do n't get it . why would you do that ? why would you let that woman come between us ? you know i 'd love to be there . it 's just super far flo : do you think that i should bring them something ? like a bottle of wine or a present for will ? or ... wyatt : i think you gave 'em the best gift they could 've ever received . flo : [ sighs ] can you come with me , please ? i would feel so much better if you came with me . wyatt : you 're gon na be fine . all right ? you just ... if you wan na get on my dad 's good side , just -- i do n't know -- compliment his shirt or something . he likes that . flo : [ laughs ] okay . wyatt : yeah . flo : i 'm not gon na push it , but ... it would be nice to spend some more time with you . wyatt : yeah . flo : well , i better go . wyatt : uh , before you do , though , um , i just -- i wanted to tell you that ... you did -- you did a really beautiful thing . all right ? and ... you should be proud of yourself . flo : thank you . shauna : i do n't wan na come in between ridge and brooke . quinn : yeah . but if they do end up splitting up , then you 'll be there to comfort him . shauna : well , that 's what friends are for . quinn : [ laughs ] eric : quinn , let 's eat out -- oh , hi . shauna , hello . shauna : hi . eric : do you wan na join us for lunch ? shauna : oh , well , that 's very kind of you , but i really should get back to my daughter . quinn : oh . flo stopped by the guesthouse . shauna : i hope that 's okay . eric : of course it is . i want you to feel completely at home here . shauna : oh , i do . i am so grateful to the both of you for allowing me to stay on your beautiful property . and , you know , it 's been wonderful spending all this time with my best friend and getting to know all of you . eric : having you here has made my wife very happy . quinn : hmm . and thankful . especially to my most generous husband . having my best friend here and just remembering where i came from , it just makes me all the more appreciative of the life that we share together . nothing means more to me . brooke : i know you do n't wan na be with shauna , ridge . you couldn't . but it still hurts . ridge : i 'm sorry . brooke : i told you what she was after , but you wanted to see the best in her , just the same way you wan na see the best in thomas . ridge : there 's a lot of stuff coming at us right now , but i think we can figure this out . we can . you 're still my wife . brooke : and i know that you love me . and i love you , too . but i just feel like we 're under attack here . i mean , do n't you see it ? thomas did what he could to drive a wedge between us . and then shauna , she moves right in . i mean , it 's so obvious , right ? she moved into the guesthouse to be near you . ridge : shauna was already living there when -- when i went off to dad 's . brooke : oh . okay . so what happened ? so quinn invited her over ? because eric would n't do that . so it was quinn . ridge : what are you doing ? come on . that 's -- brooke : oh , yeah . i mean , that makes perfect sense . she 's always hated me , so she got her best friend to go and seduce you . ridge : okay . if you wan na be angry at someone , be angry at me . brooke : ridge , i am . i am angry at you , but i 'm also angry at quinn and shauna . ridge : i mean , you have been focusing on your son . you 've been there for him . you 've been busy doing that . so you did n't see that you fell right into their trap . well , i sure as hell am not gon na let quinn and shauna hijack my future with you . [ cellphone beeping ] [ cellphone rings ] [ rings ] ridge : hey , what 's going on ? shauna : are you free after work ? i thought maybe we could have our own private cocktail hour in the guesthouse and let eric and quinn enjoy their alone time with their tequila and martinis for a change . ridge : i do n't think that 's a good idea . shauna : all right . fine . no drinks . dinner ? ridge : i ca n't do that either . look , shauna , i told brooke about us . shauna : like what good friends we are ? ridge : i was honest with her . she 's my wife . i 'm trying to figure things out , and i -- i -- just ... i do n't wan na have any secrets from her . so i told her we kissed . shauna : how did she react ? ridge : she was upset . and i hate that i hurt her . eric : no , that 's fine . i 'm glad to have it resolved . if she has any other questions , have her call me directly . yes . thank you . bye . [ door opens ] brooke : oh , good . you 're here . eric : brooke , hi . this is a surprise . brooke : [ sighs ] eric , this has got to stop . look , i know this is your home , and you 're a very kind , compassionate man , and you wan na do everything for everybody . you want there to be enough room . but enough is enough . eric : brooke , thomas is only here because ridge wanted him here . brooke : no , this is n't about thomas . it 's -- this is about shauna . eric : shauna . brooke : shauna ca n't stay here . she 's not to be trusted . eric : well , shauna is quinn 's very dear friend . now , i know there was conflict between shauna 's daughter and hope . brooke : oh , it 's more than that , eric . i 'm trying to protect my marriage . eric : what is it , brooke ? what 's happened ? brooke : you know ridge and i are doing everything we can to keep our relationship together . we signed the divorce papers , but ridge has n't filed them yet . we 're still legally married . and shauna is doing whatever she can to move in on my husband . eric : well , i know they 've become friends . brooke : no . she kissed him . she 's trying to seduce him . eric : no , brooke . no . brooke : yes , eric . ridge told me all about it . ridge and i are devoted to each other . we really wan na work this out . but shauna sees this as a weakness . she sees this as an opportunity . so she is making a move on my husband , and your wife is helping her do that . eric : no . quinn would n't do that . brooke : yes . by allowing shauna to live here , she 's allowing shauna to undermine my marriage to ridge . eric : look , i understand why you 're upset with shauna . but -- but quinn is just being a good friend . brooke : oh , my god , eric . i know you love her , but i have never trusted her , and i 've never forgiven her for all of the horrible things that she has done to us . and it really kills me -- it kills me to see her portrait above the fireplace where stephanie belongs . eric : brooke , you 're talking about ancient history . brooke : i am talking about human decency , eric . i have n't forgotten the time when she was trying to seduce ridge . now shauna is doing the exact same thing . they are two of a kind . they do n't belong here . i want shauna out of here , and i want her to take her dear friend quinn with her . | at brooke 's house , she and ridge what 's going on with liam and hope . brooke blames thomas for everything . when brooke brings up shauna , ridge confesses to her that they kissed . brooke gets very angry and blames shauna for going after him . she thinks they 're under attack from thomas and shauna . brooke also gets angry at quinn for inviting her to move in with her at eric 's . at the forrester house , quinn and shauna gossip about wyatt and flo , who are at the guest house together . they 're both hoping that their kids get back together . they also talk about ridge and brooke 's fighting . eric comes in , asking quinn if she wants to go out to eat . he says hi to shauna and invites her to go with them . shauna demurs , saying she has to get back to her daughter at the guest house . she thanks eric and quinn again for letting her stay there . | <s>[INST] brooke : i tried to convince hope not to give up . i know that steffy and liam have had a history , and it was just a kiss . ridge : so you 're not angry . brooke : yes , of course i 'm angry . i 'm heartbroken . liam proposed to hope . we should be celebrating right now , ridge . but because of thomas and because of his interference , he 's just -- ridge : thomas had nothing to do with this kiss . brooke : he 's been a destructive force in our lives for a very long time . i do n't like this either . i wish you were living here . i wish you were back home with me . ridge : yeah , i want that , too , but how can i put all this behind us when every time i turn around , you blame thomas for something ? brooke : of course i do because this is all his fault . that 's the reason why you 're living over at eric 's , away from me , while shauna is living across the courtyard . ridge : shauna has nothing to do with this . but there is something you should know . shauna : how do you think it 's going over there ? quinn : well , we can go down to the guesthouse and sneak a peek . shauna : no .

[ scene_break ] eve : you brought me here ? to the blue note ? julian : well , i thought we could find a nice , quiet table where we would n't be bothered . eve : but this is where it all went wrong -- the original blue note in boston , where my wanting to be a singer somehow got mixed up with wanting to live a good life . julian : perhaps i should n't have brought you here . i think we should go . eve : no . no , julian , i want to stay . i need to stay . i need to find out who i really am . julian : sit down . i 'll get us a drink . eve : you know , i always meant to tell t.c . the truth , someday , but someday just kept getting further and further away . i just lived in such fear of him finding out the truth , and now he has . so i ca n't run anymore . so i 'm going to stay here . i 'm going to face who i really am , because dr. eve russell is just an alias . i was , and i always will be just eve johnson .

[ scene_break ] luis : yeah , i guess my cross to bear has been coping with the fallout my father 's disappearance caused our family . coming down here to puerto arena where mama grew up , it 's just made me think of the impact it 's had on all of us . martin : you said you were young when he left . luis : yeah . papa and i , we were -- we were close . you know , he was like a hero to me . and he -- he taught me how to play sports and to build stuff and -- i remember this one time -- it was when we all still lived on the crane estate . he was building this big old gazebo , and i was helping him . but -- well , i did n't know how to use a saw back then , and -- he was trying to teach me , and -- oh , the saw jumped , and it cut his arm . i mean , bad , you know . he needed stitches , and -- but , you know , but he was n't angry . you know , my father actually said that the scar was a good thing , that it reminded him of our time together and of his son . [ scene_break ] sheridan : why is my brother 's reputation so upsetting to you ? katherine : i just feel so sorry for you , sheridan , that your brother did n't turn out better . sheridan : yeah . i 'm sorry , too . i would have loved to have known my brother better when i was growing up , but , you know , i was so much younger , and then i was sent off to boarding school in europe . julian never called and never tried to see me . i mean , he and my father pretty much acted like i did n't even exist . katherine : oh , sheridan . i 'm so sorry . sheridan : hey , it 's not your fault . the situation was what it was , and -- it 's just that the only love i ever felt growing up came from my mother . when she died , my sense of being loved pretty much died with her . katherine : but your brother -- did n't he feel something for you ? sheridan : well , if he did , i certainly was n't aware of it . you know , like i said , my brother grew up to be just like my father -- cruel , selfish , self- serving , a notorious womanizer . katherine 's inner voice : alistair made good on his threat to make julian a crane after i left harmony . sheridan : you know , for years , julian was just my brother in name only . but recently , i 've actually started to see him in a different light . he really is just a victim of our father 's cruelty as much as i was , and whether he can stand up to my father and oppose him in the long haul is anyone 's guess . but for now , julian 's trying to be a good man . and he 's being a good brother to me . katherine : oh , good . good ! good for you and julian . you know , you 're so in love with luis . does julian have anybody special in his life , too ? sheridan : actually , he married my best friend 's mother , not that it 's any kind of love match . he was married once before , but got divorced . katherine : to ivy winthrop . sheridan : yeah . ivy and julian 's marriage was hardly a love match , either . it was pretty much just to seal a deal in a business arrangement between my father and ivy 's father . katherine : yeah , your father always wanted strong political connections . what better way than to marry his son to the governor 's daughter ? sheridan : how do you know all this ?

[ scene_break ] eve : you brought me here ? to the blue note ? julian : well , i thought we could find a nice , quiet table where we would n't be bothered . eve : but this is where it all went wrong -- the original blue note in boston , where my wanting to be a singer somehow got mixed up with wanting to live a good life . julian : perhaps i should n't have brought you here . i think we should go . eve : no . no , julian , i want to stay . i need to stay . i need to find out who i really am . julian : sit down . i 'll get us a drink . eve : you know , i always meant to tell t.c . the truth , someday , but someday just kept getting further and further away . i just lived in such fear of him finding out the truth , and now he has . so i ca n't run anymore . so i 'm going to stay here . i 'm going to face who i really am , because dr. eve russell is just an alias . i was , and i always will be just eve johnson .

[ scene_break ] luis : yeah , i guess my cross to bear has been coping with the fallout my father 's disappearance caused our family . coming down here to puerto arena where mama grew up , it 's just made me think of the impact it 's had on all of us . martin : you said you were young when he left . luis : yeah . papa and i , we were -- we were close . you know , he was like a hero to me . and he -- he taught me how to play sports and to build stuff and -- i remember this one time -- it was when we all still lived on the crane estate . he was building this big old gazebo , and i was helping him . but -- well , i did n't know how to use a saw back then , and -- he was trying to teach me , and -- oh , the saw jumped , and it cut his arm . i mean , bad , you know . he needed stitches , and -- but , you know , but he was n't angry . you know , my father actually said that the scar was a good thing , that it reminded him of our time together and of his son . [ scene_break ] sheridan : why is my brother 's reputation so upsetting to you ? katherine : i just feel so sorry for you , sheridan , that your brother did n't turn out better . sheridan : yeah . i 'm sorry , too . i would have loved to have known my brother better when i was growing up , but , you know , i was so much younger , and then i was sent off to boarding school in europe . julian never called and never tried to see me . i mean , he and my father pretty much acted like i did n't even exist . katherine : oh , sheridan . i 'm so sorry . sheridan : hey , it 's not your fault . the situation was what it was , and -- it 's just that the only love i ever felt growing up came from my mother . when she died , my sense of being loved pretty much died with her . katherine : but your brother -- did n't he feel something for you ? sheridan : well , if he did , i certainly was n't aware of it . you know , like i said , my brother grew up to be just like my father -- cruel , selfish , self- serving , a notorious womanizer . katherine 's inner voice : alistair made good on his threat to make julian a crane after i left harmony . sheridan : you know , for years , julian was just my brother in name only . but recently , i 've actually started to see him in a different light . he really is just a victim of our father 's cruelty as much as i was , and whether he can stand up to my father and oppose him in the long haul is anyone 's guess . but for now , julian 's trying to be a good man . and he 's being a good brother to me . katherine : oh , good . good ! good for you and julian . you know , you 're so in love with luis . does julian have anybody special in his life , too ? sheridan : actually , he married my best friend 's mother , not that it 's any kind of love match . he was married once before , but got divorced . katherine : to ivy winthrop . sheridan : yeah . ivy and julian 's marriage was hardly a love match , either . it was pretty much just to seal a deal in a business arrangement between my father and ivy 's father . katherine : yeah , your father always wanted strong political connections . what better way than to marry his son to the governor 's daughter ? sheridan : how do you know all this ? [ scene_break ] julian : you 're not eve johnson anymore , my love . you 're eve russell , a brilliant doctor , a mother , a friend . eve : no . that was just packaging . `` the new , improved . `` but the stuff inside of me , it 's -- it stayed the same . so now i have to accept the truth of who i am and embrace it . julian : where are you going ? eve : on stage , to sing . julian : wait , no , what -- here , now ? eve : i have n't sung in 25 years . now , tonight , i 'm going to sing just like i used to , night after night at the blue note . eve johnson 's making a comeback .

[ telephone rings ] anna : oh , do you have any updates on franco 's whereabouts ? nathan : not yet . i was about to check in with dante , follow up a lead . anna : you know what ? let falconeri handle all of that . i want something else from you . updates on the silas clay investigation . sam : you want the rest of my muffin ? silas : no , you finish it . sam : you know , i ca n't remember the last time i actually had a muffin , french toast , eggs , and tater tots . silas : well , you have a healthy appetite . for a lot of things . sam : hey ! silas : ow ! why 'd you kick me ? sam : come on ! no more sleepovers for you . silas : do n't think it was the sleeping that made you hungry . sam : oh , no ? silas : no . well , as much as i hate to leave , i , uh ... should get going . i heard the , uh , new chief of staff runs a tight ship . brad : oh . uh ... oh . dr. obrecht : good morning , mr. cooper . nikolas : [ grunts ] britt : [ sighs ] damn it . nikolas : oh . i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to wake you up . britt : oh , no . no , you did n't . no , i was just hoping this would all still be a very bad dream and my mother was safely locked in a cell somewhere . nikolas : instead of taking over as chief of staff at the hospital ? britt : my mother is my new boss . [ groaning ] ohh ! dr. obrecht : mr. cooper , i believe your shift at the lab starts at 9 : 00 a.m. not 9 : 01 , not 9 : 02 , and certainly not at 9 : 09 ! brad : what are you doing here ? dr. obrecht : have n't you heard ? i 'm your new boss . sam : none of this really makes sense . how could a former fugitive become chief of staff and you are just passed over ? silas : well , consensus opinion is the new chief of staff has leverage over someone . sam : okay , i would want to normally help you find answers to this , but i think we 've got bigger problems . silas : mm . detective west . sam : detective west . yes . we have to figure a way to get him off your back , and i think the only way to do that is to prove that ava is the one who tried to kill your wife . [ cell phone chimes ] [ keyboard clicking ] ava : [ scoffs ] julian : what is it you think you 're doing ? morgan : i do n't know what to do . i mean , i have to play by julian 's rules , but i -- i ca n't let you go . ava : then do n't . morgan : but if my father finds out , he 's never gon na believe i 'm loyal to him , ava . ava : sonny does n't have to figure out that we 're still together . just trust me . [ opening door ] we 'll find a way . sonny : what are you doing , son ? brad : you 're the new chief of staff ? you 're britt 's mother . dr. obrecht : you think i ca n't be both ? a woman , a mother ca n't head a hospital ? brad : no , of course not . i would never say anything remotely like that . dr. obrecht : good , since i 'm here to stay . while i have you here , we might as well go over my notes for you . brad : your notes ? dr. obrecht : surely you would expect nothing less from new chief of staff . i have assessed your management at the lab . inefficient would be a generous word . not to mention all the security holes . brad : you did n't seem to mind those security holes when you stole dante and lulu 's embryos and implanted them in your daughter . dr. obrecht : how dare you . you will never bring that up again -- here , of all places . need i remind you we both stand to lose a great deal if that comes out . i would assure that this is a secret you take to your grave . felix : hey . leave him alone . anna : i understand dr. clay came in here and attacked you in the squad room . is that right ? nathan : he was n't happy that i told his girlfriend he was married . anna : oh , i presume that 's what you were referring to when you said you rattled his cage . how did that work ? nathan : well , clay finally agreed to an interview . anna : where his answers satisfactory ? nathan : well , i asked him about this prescription . anna : yeah ? well , that 's written by dr. clay for himself , is it ? nathan : yeah , and dated the day his wife went into a coma . anna : okay , so , i take it that this antidepressant is what nina clay o.d . 'd on . nathan : her prescription was for pills . this is for liquid . anna : oh , so , your theory is that dr. clay injected his wife intending to kill her and make it look like an overdose . nathan : that 's right . anna : so , what was his response to that ? nathan : well , he denied it . anna : yeah . have you had the handwriting analyzed yet ? nathan : no , clay wo n't give us a sample of his writing . anna : oh . not cooperating with the police is n't a crime . nathan : yeah , but i know he 's lying . anna : yeah , that 's not gon na stand up in court . i need more proof . we have this new d.a . , and he lost his first case . long story short is that unless we have ironclad evidence , he 's not gon na pursue anything . nathan : i 'll get it for you . anna : i 've given you a lot of leeway with this . nathan : i know , and i appreciate it . anna : and you 're exhausted . nathan : i 'm working on my own time . anna : you are exhausted . nathan : no , i 'm good . i 'm good . anna : i let you pursue this case in the hopes that it could pull ava jerome in , but that has n't materialized . and i doubt that dr. clay is gon na come barging back in here and attack you again in the squad room for a second time . it 's more likely that he 's gon na file a harassment suit , which i do n't have the time or the budget to go against . nathan : clay wants to come in here after me , let him . anna : no , look . if it were to come to that , do n't misunderstand me . i 'll have your back . but , as commissioner , it is my job to put my limited resources where they will do the most good . i need you to be working on current cases . so ... nathan , i have to shut you down . nathan : please do n't do that . commissioner . anna : a decision has been made . nathan : i just need a little more time . anna : why ? why is this case so important to you ? sam : hey , do you remember mr. nakamura ? silas : nakamura ? hey , was he the pharmacist in manhattan north ? sam : exactly . yes . you 're right . silas : wow . sam : and according to hospital records , mr. nakamura is the one who filled the prescription that you supposedly wrote for yourself . so , i 've been doing a little research . we 've been e - mailing back and forth , and he was on his way to syracuse to visit family , and i convinced him to stop and talk to me . silas : you 're kidding ? sam : mm - hmm . silas : well , you know , i 'd cancel my shift and sit in with you , but obrecht fired the chief of pediatrics for a lot less . sam : i know . you 're intimidated , are n't you ? silas : no , i 'm not intimidated . sam : [ laughs ] silas : i 'm not intimidated , but , you know , if i ca n't deal with her , i want to have the joy of quitting . i 'm not gon na let her fire me . sam : okay , that sounds more like you . silas : okay . good luck with nakamura . sam : thank you . silas : you look pretty . sam : bobbie ! bobbie : hey . sam : hey . any news on carly ? bobbie : no . no , you know , and the longer she 's gone ... sam : hey , they 're gon na find her . bobbie : yeah . and thank you for looking after lucas . sam : gosh , i was so surprised to run into him yesterday . i really wish i had more time to talk to him , but when our father showed -- when i say `` father , `` i use that term very loosely . bobbie : whoa , whoa . sam : but when he showed up -- bobbie : wait a minute . what are you saying ? lucas saw julian ? ava : do n't be so rude . i was nice enough to take you in after sonny 's girlfriend evicted you from both your office and your hotel room . julian : well , it looks like you 've been busy texting your little cub . aww , what do you know ? morgan misses you , too . thought you agreed that you 'd stop all this ? ava : no one knows . julian : this jeopardizes too much . these little love notes have to stop . if sonny gets onto the fact that morgan still works for our family , ava , that will be the end for us . ava : you do n't have to worry . morgan and i have been careful . after all , we fooled you . julian : well , you 're just distracting the kid . it 's been weeks and he 's brought us nothing that we can use against his father . so ... what are we going to do about that ? morgan : sorry , i did n't hear you . sonny : you were texting . seemed important . who was it ? morgan : it was michael . he was giving me an update on mom . sonny : mom , you know , she 's a survivor , as you know . we 're gon na find her . morgan : yeah . you know , michael 's been pushing the cops . i kind of feel like i should be there with him , but i do n't want to get in the way , you know ? michael : yeah , well , dante 's running the investigation with the cops , and , shawn is looking for her , and i 'd be looking for carly myself , but i got to deal with the jeromes . morgan : why ? are they still giving you -- still giving you trouble ? sonny : it 's all gon na change tonight . morgan : why ? what 's -- what 's going on tonight ? [ footsteps ] sonny : tonight ... we strike back . nathan : why is this case so important to me ? anna : yes . nathan : there 's a woman who 's been in a coma for over 20 years . now , whatever her life could have been , it was cut short because of what her husband did to her . anna : yeah . what happened to nina clay was a tragedy , but the evidence against her husband is circumstantial . nathan : i know he did it , though . anna : i think we already went over this in our initial interview . nathan : you said a good detective keeps an open mind . anna : i do n't see any of that happening at the moment . you have circumstantial evidence and a plausible scenario . nathan : the scenario being silas clay tried to murder his wife and left her trapped in a bed for 20 years . excuse me . anna : oh , i have seen this happen before . a detective working a cold case gets obsessed and then loses sight of the squad 's priorities . nathan : this is why i became a cop . to bring people like silas clay to justice . is n't that our job ? anna : yes , of course it is . but the odds against solving a case , they diminish with each passing year . and after two decades , it 's highly unlikely this case will be cleared . meanwhile , there are fresh cases right here in port charles , ones where you can actually make a difference . nathan : yes , ma'am . anna : one week . nathan : ma'am ? anna : yes , you have one week to get fresh evidence against dr. clay . after that , we 're done , okay ? nathan : one week . anna : one week . dr. obrecht : this does n't concern you , nurse dubois . how i run my hospital is none of your business . felix : yeah , something tells me that h.r . might disagree . they might even call this a hostile work environment . dr. obrecht : very well . remember to be more punctual next time , mr. cooper . brad : yes , doctor . [ sighs ] thanks for the save . felix : do n't worry about it . brad : really ? i mean , we kind of mixed it up the other day , and i 'm surprised you 're even speaking to me . felix : i should have said this before now . i 'm sorry . britt : you know , it 's not just the job . my mother has somehow managed to wrangle a total pardon . i mean , she -- she almost kills duke lavery , she kidnaps ben , she held robin as prisoner , and she should be locked away for the rest of her life , but now she is the chief of staff at general hospital ? [ sighs ] nikolas : i tried getting answers from the board , okay ? if anyone knew anything , they certainly were n't talking . britt : well , that 's it . i 'm -- i 'm not going in . nikolas : what do you mean you 're not going in ? britt : come on ! work for my mother after everything she 's done to us ? no way . it 's not worth it . i quit . nikolas : you have a contract . britt : so ? i 'll break it . i mean , who cares if i do n't work anywhere for a little while ? nikolas : okay , if that 's what you want to do . britt : what ? nikolas : look , i 'll support any decision that you want to make . it 's just that your mother 's already taken so much from you , i would be sorry if she took your job . you know , you 're an excellent doctor . you love what you do . you really want to give that up just to avoid your mother ? britt : [ sighs ] i guess i do have to go in . i ca n't let her win . [ groans ] nikolas : there 's no reason you ca n't be a little late . britt : oh , no , no , no , no . coming in late in my mother 's world is even worse than not showing up . [ laughing ] she has a thing for punctuality . nikolas : that is too bad . britt : [ whines ] oh , what the hell ? [ giggles ] sonny : how 'd it go ? i thought we -- it 's fine . he 's on the same team . anything you say to me you can say to him . duke : well , it worked . i made contact . sonny : oh . morgan : wait , wait , wait . with who ? what 's going on here ? sonny : oh , duke reached out to an old friend of yours , carlos rivera . so ... duke : yeah , he 's been in hiding for quite some time . he 's been out of the loop , so the poor fool does n't realize i 'm no longer working for julian jerome . i 've arranged for him to meet me here in one hour . morgan : and then what ? sonny : well , we 're gon na use carlos as bait to draw out julian , unarmed , unprotected . and then we 're gon na finish him off . julian : i agreed to keep morgan around because you assured me that he could be useful . but he has n't been so far . ava : what are you doing ? julian : it 's about time i had a little chat with your adolescent bedmate . ava : oh , come on ! do n't ! do n't send that . you 're worried that i 'll expose us , sending a few texts , and you 're asking him to come here ? do n't you think that sonny is having the building watched ? julian : morgan will be fine as long as he comes through the garage . i know he 's no rocket scientist , but even he should have that much sense . ava : what is the matter with you ? you are in an exceptionally foul mood today , and i do n't think it 's because of my relationship with morgan . julian : [ sighs ] you 're right . it 's not . ava : then what ? julian : yesterday i , uh ... i finally met my son . bobbie : wait a minute . you 're telling me that lucas knows that julian jerome is alive . sam : yeah , that 's right . he ran into both of us , me and julian , just outside yesterday . bobbie : oh , god . sam : i mean , he seemed a little freaked out . who can blame him ? but , of course , i thought he would have told you . bobbie : no ! no , actually , he texted me last night and he said that he wanted to spend the night at your place 'cause he wanted to get to know you and danny better . sam : my place ? bobbie , he did n't -- he was not at my place last night . bobbie : oh , god ! oh , no ! well , then where would he go ? lucas : call off the dogs , mom . bobbie : i 'm calling the police . lucas : call off the dogs . i 'm here . ava : lucas ? i thought he lived in seattle ? julian : oh , he does , but he was -- he was at kelly 's yesterday , which i should have realized he 'd be in town now with his sister carly missing . ava : and i take it he did n't welcome you with open arms . julian : of course , he had no idea i was alive until he saw me . which he did not take very well . lucas does n't want any more to do with me than sam does . ava : well ... i 'm sorry , julian . it hurts . i know . kiki still wo n't speak to me . it 's terrible . but i did warn you this could happen , did n't i ? so , i guess it 's time that we admit it . julian : [ sighs ] ava : it 's just you and me against the world . julian : so where does that leave your boyfriend ? ava : what do you mean ? julian : ava ... we need to figure out ... what to do about morgan . morgan : what do you want me to do ? sonny : i do n't need you to do anything . i do n't want you anywhere near . morgan : but i want to help . sonny : you check with your brothers , figure out what 's going on with your mom . morgan : dad , i 'm just gon na do something stupid if -- sonny : no , you 're not . morgan : dad , come on . when things are bad , you know , i have a knack for just making them worse . sonny : okay , i disagree with that . morgan : okay , look , hey . dante is a cop , okay ? he knows what he 's doing . michael can keep it together way better than i can . if i was down at the pcpd , i 'd probably hit someone , you know , be locked up by now . sonny : you got a temper . you get that from me . i 've learned how to control it a little bit . you 're gon na do the same thing . morgan : yeah , but if i screw up and they ca n't find mom -- sonny : you 're not . the jeromes are my problem . what you need to be doing is getting your brothers together and figuring out what you 're gon na tell your little sister . [ cell phone chimes ] morgan : you know what ? yeah . yeah , dad . you 're right . julian : now , morgan needs to shape up ... or i 'll have to put an end to our arrangement . felix : can we talk somewhere in private ? brad : uh , sure . [ elevator bell dings ] nathan : dr. clay . hey , doc . thought i might find you here . silas : what do you want ? i got work to do . nathan : yeah , so do i . [ alarm beeping ] nathan : i thought we might follow up on our last conversation . silas : that conversation ? that conversation 's finished . nathan : yeah , not until you admit that you gave your wife that overdose . brad : okay , so , what did you need to tell me in private ? felix : you 're right . i tend to butt into situations that do n't ' concern me . brad : yeah , which worked to my advantage just now . felix : yeah , but i got to learn to pick my battles . i had no right telling patrick sabrina 's private business or to go off on you about yours . i 'm not saying lying for britt was right , but i 'm not without sin myself . so , i 'll stop casting stones ... if you can accept my apology . what do you say ? can you forgive me ? bobbie : oh , thank god ! when i found out you were n't with sam , i was so worried . lucas : my fault . i never should have told you i was going over there . but it 's just -- i did n't want you to worry about me when you 're already afraid for carly . and i 'm sorry , sam . no , i never should have involved you in my life . sam : no harm done . i 'm just glad it all worked out . bobbie : why did you feel you had to lie to me ? lucas : why did you lie to me , mom ? why did n't you tell me my biological father was alive ? [ knock on door ] morgan : hey . ava : hey . morgan : you wanted to see me ? ava : we 're not alone . julian : that was me who texted you , kid . sorry . i had to make sure you got here right away . morgan : what do you want ? julian : what do i want ? i want information -- about sonny , his plans , his organization . you 've been back with your father for awhile now , and yet you 've given me nothing . morgan : yeah , i told you . i 'm trying . julian : well , not hard enough . i thought we had an understanding about what would happen if you did n't follow through . julian : so many other options -- your mother . michael . well , of course , you do n't really care about them , so , let 's see here . oh , hey . i can always go back to the hospital , finish max off , huh ? morgan : it 's just -- it 's -- it 's been tough to get my dad to trust me lately . okay , but , i got something today . julian : what ? morgan : duke lavery is working for my dad . sonny : any questions about how this is gon na go down ? duke : none . sonny : so , you can handle it ? right ? duke : absolutely . anna : duke ? duke : anna . what are you doing here ? anna : following up on a lead in carly 's disappearance . sonny : did you find her ? anna : no , but there 's nothing concrete . as soon as we have something , we 'll notify the family . what are you doing ? why are you here with ... sonny ? [ alarm beeping ] anna : [ scoffs ] silas : you do n't really expect me to confess , do you ? see , i know all your little tricks . you 're just trying to get me to slip up , 'cause deep down , you know you got nothing . and right now , your boss is down at the police station . they 're probably losing patience with you and all your little antics . you want my advice ? you want to impress the brass and you want to do the right thing ? you stop harassing an innocent man and you use whatever leeway you have life to go find the person who actually did this to my wife ! nathan : and who is that ? silas : you want me to do your job for you ? if i were you , i 'd start with ava jerome . nathan : you 're gon na throw your mistress , the mother of your child , under the bus ? silas : you know what they say about assumptions , detective . because you make a lot of them . you assume because i was unfaithful once that i did not love my wife . you assume that it does n't break my heart to think about nina every day in that coma for the past 20 years , when she should have been out living her life with or without me . you assume that i do not want justice for her now . well , you can have all of those assumptions , but you 'd be wrong about all of them ! nathan : doc , you 're the one who wrote the prescription . you wanted your wife out of the way . silas : do you ever get tired of being wrong ? ! nathan : you wanted her dead . silas : i 'm gon na say this for you nice and slow so you can understand . you ca n't prove it because it 's not true ! nathan : come on , doc . be a man . just admit it . we 're alone . it 'll be my word against yours . silas : [ sighs ] [ elevator bell dings ] britt : oh , my god ! i am so late . i really have to go now . nikolas : i know . after pressuring you not to quit , it would n't be fair of me to make you blow off work , would it ? britt : no , not fair at all . not that i do n't mind the sentiment . nikolas : here . sit , sit , sit . britt : [ chuckles ] nikolas : listen . i promise you that i will get to the bottom of whatever happened to your mother . okay ? someone will have some answers . britt : you 're the best . you know that ? [ chuckles ] brad : do n't feel too guilty . i 'm certainly no saint . done pretty of bad things recently . i mean , the only good i 've managed is getting you to be my friend . felix : [ laughing ] brad . brad : okay , maybe friend is pushing it , but at least you cared enough to take on obrecht for me . felix : i was happy to do that . and i hope we are friends . brad : you think you can look past all the reasons you should stay away from me ? felix : maybe i do n't want to stay away anymore . for awhile there , i thought we were on our way to , um ... brad : to what ? felix : to something more . i mean , we never quite made it there , but not for lack of trying on your part . so maybe i ought to try , too . brad : what do you mean ? felix : why do n't you and i go on a date ? lucas : i 'm not angry , mom . at least , i do n't want to be . i 'm just trying to understand . bobbie : [ sighs ] look , i know that i should have said something sooner , and i was about to tell you yesterday . lucas : but you did n't find out yesterday . you 've known this for months . is that why you stayed in port charles after the wedding ? [ chuckles ] and why you 've been so weird with me on the phone . bobbie : i was trying to protect you . lucas : i do n't need you to protect me anymore , mom . bobbie : no matter how old you get , you will always be my baby ! lucas : i 'm a grown man . [ chuckles ] i have a job . i pay my taxes . i have n't needed a babysitter in at least a decade . i just wish you could realize that . bobbie : i 'm sorry . i know i can be overprotective . but julian jerome is dangerous , and i did n't want him to take advantage of your curiosity . lucas : of course i 'm gon na be curious , mom . i 've always wondered about him . and i get it . we 're all worried about carly . but do you really think that this is something that you needed to let me figure out on my own ? bobbie : [ sighs ] sam : lucas , i can totally understand why you 're curious . i was curious , too . but i 'm gon na tell you right now , julian will only disappoint you in the end . lucas : like he disappointed you ? sam : yes , he saved my son 's life by donating bone marrow . i will give him that . lucas : sounds like a point in his favor . sam : julian was n't acting out of kindness or compassion . he was using my son as leverage . he started a mob war with sonny , and he knew that sonny would never kill him , just in case danny would need him again . and if he would use my son , his grandson , as a hostage , can you imagine what he would do to you ? lucas : i appreciate the warning . i probably wo n't want anything to do with him . or maybe i will . either way ... it 's my choice to make . julian : you 're sure ? lavery 's working for corinthos ? morgan : yeah . went to work for my father as soon as he left you . julian : [ chuckles ] oh , that son of a bitch . i knew he would n't go away quietly . morgan : he and my dad are gon na take you down . plan starts tonight . ava : thank you , morgan . julian : okay , let 's just start from the beginning . what exactly is corinthos ' plan ? duke : i just took the launch back from spoon island . anna : you were at wyndemere ? duke : yeah , i went to meet with nikolas cassadine about a job opportunity . and when i got back here , i ran into mr. corinthos , and i was trying to convince him to cooperate with you . you know , that unpleasantness at the warehouse . anna : what ? i appreciate the thought , but i 'd prefer it if you did n't jeopardize the integrity of my investigation . duke : of course , you 're right . do n't know what i was thinking . anyway , i 'll walk you back to the office . anna : no . i have some questions for mr. corinthos . duke : all right . i 'll see you back at home . anna : mm . sonny : if this is about the last time i saw carly , i already gave my statement , but , you know , i 'll tell you as many times as you need to hear . but it 's pretty obvious that franco grabbed her . my kids are terrified for her . so , as long as you do everything your possible -- as much as you can to find that freak . anna : i know . the investigation -- we 're looking for franco and carly . that 's ongoing . that 's not what i want to discuss with you . sonny : what do you want from me ? anna : i 'd like answers . dr. obrecht : thank you . i believe the problem has been resolved . i want an explanation . who stopped the elevator ? nathan : i did . detective nathan west , pcpd . dr. obrecht : you work for anna devane ? nathan : yes , ma'am . i 'm investigating your head of oncology . dr. obrecht : why are you investigating dr. clay ? nathan : he tried to kill his wife . he could be a danger to your patients . dr. obrecht : the only one putting my patients in danger is you , detective . nathan : i 'm sorry ? dr. obrecht : by monopolizing an elevator , which is vital to the work of this hospital . nathan : i 'm pretty sure your other elevators are working . dr. obrecht : do n't be flip with me , you ... petty bureaucrat . nathan : actually , ma'am , i 'm a petty detective . dr. obrecht : and i am a doctor and expect to be addressed as such ! inform your commissioner that i will not tolerate anyone interfering with the practice of medicine . dr. clay is one of the most talented members of my staff , and this hospital pays him to use those talents , not to fend if she wants to badger a member of my staff , she can do it on her own time , but not at this hospital ! nathan : i will give her your message . this is n't over . dr. obrecht : so ... is it true ? did you try to kill your wife ? brad : are you serious ? felix : yeah , i 'm serious . do n't tell me you 're not interested anymore . felix : are you kidding ? i 've been pursuing you for the better part of a year . i thought it 'd never happen at this point , especially after a fight . felix : so , is that a yes ? brad : yes , it 's a yes ! felix : [ sighs , chuckles ] that 's a relief . i got to go . the brutchess is gon na notice if i 'm not at my station . i get off of work at 8 : 00 . i 'll meet you in the parking lot . um , you pick the place . brad : it 's a date . felix : all right . brad : [ chuckles ] bobbie : lucas , i just wish you could understand why i kept this from you . lucas : i do understand , mom . it 's just like when we found out i had diabetes and when i came out . you want to fight my battles for me . bobbie : where you going ? lucas : just , uh ... need a little time to think . it 's a lot to deal with . bobbie : [ sighs ] [ voice breaking ] i blew it . sam : no , you 're a mother . you did what you thought was right . he 'll come around . i promise you . he 'll be okay . lucas : [ sighs ] julian : so , that 's the plan ? use carlos as bait . morgan : they 're meeting on the pier in an hour . ava : thank you , morgan . you certainly lived up to your end of the bargain . julian : yeah . you certainly did . morgan : what are you gon na do about it ?

anna : i just believe that it 's because you just show her the one -- the one face . you know , the one aspect of who you really are . the good man , the loyal friend , the loving father . sonny : are you questioning my love for my children ? anna : no , i 'm sure you do love your children -- and all their mothers . and i do n't doubt that your concern for carly is real , but you 're not above using that to stop me from following up on the shooting . see , and that 's the part of you that robin does n't see . the part of you that 's just utterly ruthless . sonny : i do what i have to do to protect what 's mine . anna : i 'm aware of that . so , you 'll be hearing from me . sonny : good save . she just left . duke : i hated doing that . but anna could n't know that i 'm working with you . sonny : she can not know what 's going down tonight . julian : well , avery thinks the only person he 's going to run into is rivera , but instead he 'll find me . and i 'll be the last person he ever sees .

'd on . nathan : her prescription was for pills . this is for liquid . anna : oh , so , your theory is that dr. clay injected his wife intending to kill her and make it look like an overdose . nathan : that 's right . anna : so , what was his response to that ? nathan : well , he denied it . anna : yeah . have you had the handwriting analyzed yet ? nathan : no , clay wo n't give us a sample of his writing . anna : oh . not cooperating with the police is n't a crime . nathan : yeah , but i know he 's lying . anna : yeah , that 's not gon na stand up in court . i need more proof . we have this new d.a . , and he lost his first case . long story short is that unless we have ironclad evidence , he 's not gon na pursue anything . nathan : i 'll get it for you . anna : i 've given you a lot of leeway with this . nathan : i know , and i appreciate it . anna : and you 're exhausted . nathan : i 'm working on my own time . anna : you are exhausted . nathan : no , i 'm good . i 'm good . anna : i let you pursue this case in the hopes that it could pull ava jerome in , but that has n't materialized . and i doubt that dr. clay is gon na come barging back in here and attack you again in the squad room for a second time . it 's more likely that he 's gon na file a harassment suit , which i do n't have the time or the budget to go against . nathan : clay wants to come in here after me , let him . anna : no , look . if it were to come to that , do n't misunderstand me . i 'll have your back . but , as commissioner , it is my job to put my limited resources where they will do the most good . i need you to be working on current cases . so ... nathan , i have to shut you down . nathan : please do n't do that . commissioner . anna : a decision has been made . nathan : i just need a little more time . anna : why ? why is this case so important to you ? sam : hey , do you remember mr. nakamura ? silas : nakamura ? hey , was he the pharmacist in manhattan north ? sam : exactly . yes . you 're right . silas : wow . sam : and according to hospital records , mr. nakamura is the one who filled the prescription that you supposedly wrote for yourself . so , i 've been doing a little research . we 've been e - mailing back and forth , and he was on his way to syracuse to visit family , and i convinced him to stop and talk to me . silas : you 're kidding ? sam : mm - hmm . silas : well , you know , i 'd cancel my shift and sit in with you , but obrecht fired the chief of pediatrics for a lot less . sam : i know . you 're intimidated , are n't you ? silas : no , i 'm not intimidated . sam : [ laughs ] silas : i 'm not intimidated , but , you know , if i ca n't deal with her , i want to have the joy of quitting . i 'm not gon na let her fire me . sam : okay , that sounds more like you . silas : okay . good luck with nakamura . sam : thank you . silas : you look pretty . sam : bobbie ! bobbie : hey . sam : hey . any news on carly ? bobbie : no . no , you know , and the longer she 's gone ... sam : hey , they 're gon na find her . bobbie : yeah . and thank you for looking after lucas . sam : gosh , i was so surprised to run into him yesterday . i really wish i had more time to talk to him , but when our father showed -- when i say `` father , `` i use that term very loosely . bobbie : whoa , whoa . sam : but when he showed up -- bobbie : wait a minute . what are you saying ? lucas saw julian ? ava : do n't be so rude . i was nice enough to take you in after sonny 's girlfriend evicted you from both your office and your hotel room . julian : well , it looks like you 've been busy texting your little cub . aww , what do you know ? morgan misses you , too . thought you agreed that you 'd stop all this ? ava : no one knows . julian : this jeopardizes too much . these little love notes have to stop . if sonny gets onto the fact that morgan still works for our family , ava , that will be the end for us . ava : you do n't have to worry . morgan and i have been careful . after all , we fooled you . julian : well , you 're just distracting the kid . it 's been weeks and he 's brought us nothing that we can use against his father . so ... what are we going to do about that ? morgan : sorry , i did n't hear you . sonny : you were texting . seemed important . who was it ? morgan : it was michael . he was giving me an update on mom . sonny : mom , you know , she 's a survivor , as you know . we 're gon na find her . morgan : yeah . you know , michael 's been pushing the cops . i kind of feel like i should be there with him , but i do n't want to get in the way , you know ? michael : yeah , well , dante 's running the investigation with the cops , and , shawn is looking for her , and i 'd be looking for carly myself , but i got to deal with the jeromes . morgan : why ? are they still giving you -- still giving you trouble ? sonny : it 's all gon na change tonight . morgan : why ? what 's -- what 's going on tonight ? [ footsteps ] sonny : tonight ... we strike back . nathan : why is this case so important to me ? anna : yes . nathan : there 's a woman who 's been in a coma for over 20 years . now , whatever her life could have been , it was cut short because of what her husband did to her . anna : yeah . what happened to nina clay was a tragedy , but the evidence against her husband is circumstantial . nathan : i know he did it , though . anna : i think we already went over this in our initial interview . nathan : you said a good detective keeps an open mind . anna : i do n't see any of that happening at the moment . you have circumstantial evidence and a plausible scenario . nathan : the scenario being silas clay tried to murder his wife and left her trapped in a bed for 20 years . excuse me . anna : oh , i have seen this happen before . a detective working a cold case gets obsessed and then loses sight of the squad 's priorities . nathan : this is why i became a cop . to bring people like silas clay to justice . is n't that our job ? anna : yes , of course it is . but the odds against solving a case , they diminish with each passing year . and after two decades , it 's highly unlikely this case will be cleared . meanwhile , there are fresh cases right here in port charles , ones where you can actually make a difference . nathan : yes , ma'am . anna : one week . nathan : ma'am ? anna : yes , you have one week to get fresh evidence against dr. clay . after that , we 're done , okay ? nathan : one week . anna : one week . dr. obrecht : this does n't concern you , nurse dubois . how i run my hospital is none of your business . felix : yeah , something tells me that h.r . might disagree . they might even call this a hostile work environment . dr. obrecht : very well . remember to be more punctual next time , mr. cooper . brad : yes , doctor . [ sighs ] thanks for the save . felix : do n't worry about it . brad : really ? i mean , we kind of mixed it up the other day , and i 'm surprised you 're even speaking to me . felix : i should have said this before now . i 'm sorry . britt : you know , it 's not just the job . my mother has somehow managed to wrangle a total pardon . i mean , she -- she almost kills duke lavery , she kidnaps ben , she held robin as prisoner , and she should be locked away for the rest of her life , but now she is the chief of staff at general hospital ?

[ groans ] nikolas : there 's no reason you ca n't be a little late . britt : oh , no , no , no , no . coming in late in my mother 's world is even worse than not showing up .

[ cell phone chimes ] morgan : you know what ? yeah . yeah , dad . you 're right . julian : now , morgan needs to shape up ... or i 'll have to put an end to our arrangement . felix : can we talk somewhere in private ? brad : uh , sure .

[ alarm beeping ] nathan : i thought we might follow up on our last conversation . silas : that conversation ? that conversation 's finished . nathan : yeah , not until you admit that you gave your wife that overdose . brad : okay , so , what did you need to tell me in private ? felix : you 're right . i tend to butt into situations that do n't ' concern me . brad : yeah , which worked to my advantage just now . felix : yeah , but i got to learn to pick my battles . i had no right telling patrick sabrina 's private business or to go off on you about yours . i 'm not saying lying for britt was right , but i 'm not without sin myself . so , i 'll stop casting stones ... if you can accept my apology . what do you say ? can you forgive me ? bobbie : oh , thank god ! when i found out you were n't with sam , i was so worried . lucas : my fault . i never should have told you i was going over there . but it 's just -- i did n't want you to worry about me when you 're already afraid for carly . and i 'm sorry , sam . no , i never should have involved you in my life . sam : no harm done . i 'm just glad it all worked out . bobbie : why did you feel you had to lie to me ? lucas : why did you lie to me , mom ? why did n't you tell me my biological father was alive ?

[ alarm beeping ] anna : [ scoffs ] silas : you do n't really expect me to confess , do you ? see , i know all your little tricks . you 're just trying to get me to slip up , 'cause deep down , you know you got nothing . and right now , your boss is down at the police station . they 're probably losing patience with you and all your little antics . you want my advice ? you want to impress the brass and you want to do the right thing ? you stop harassing an innocent man and you use whatever leeway you have life to go find the person who actually did this to my wife ! nathan : and who is that ? silas : you want me to do your job for you ? if i were you , i 'd start with ava jerome . nathan : you 're gon na throw your mistress , the mother of your child , under the bus ? silas : you know what they say about assumptions , detective . because you make a lot of them . you assume because i was unfaithful once that i did not love my wife . you assume that it does n't break my heart to think about nina every day in that coma for the past 20 years , when she should have been out living her life with or without me . you assume that i do not want justice for her now . well , you can have all of those assumptions , but you 'd be wrong about all of them ! nathan : doc , you 're the one who wrote the prescription . you wanted your wife out of the way . silas : do you ever get tired of being wrong ? ! nathan : you wanted her dead . silas : i 'm gon na say this for you nice and slow so you can understand . you ca n't prove it because it 's not true ! nathan : come on , doc . be a man . just admit it . we 're alone . it 'll be my word against yours . silas : [ sighs ] [ elevator bell dings ] britt : oh , my god ! i am so late . i really have to go now . nikolas : i know . after pressuring you not to quit , it would n't be fair of me to make you blow off work , would it ? britt : no , not fair at all . not that i do n't mind the sentiment . nikolas : here . sit , sit , sit . britt : [ chuckles ] nikolas : listen . i promise you that i will get to the bottom of whatever happened to your mother . okay ? someone will have some answers . britt : you 're the best . you know that ? [ chuckles ] brad : do n't feel too guilty . i 'm certainly no saint . done pretty of bad things recently . i mean , the only good i 've managed is getting you to be my friend . felix : [ laughing ] brad . brad : okay , maybe friend is pushing it , but at least you cared enough to take on obrecht for me . felix : i was happy to do that . and i hope we are friends . brad : you think you can look past all the reasons you should stay away from me ? felix : maybe i do n't want to stay away anymore . for awhile there , i thought we were on our way to , um ... brad : to what ? felix : to something more . i mean , we never quite made it there , but not for lack of trying on your part . so maybe i ought to try , too . brad : what do you mean ? felix : why do n't you and i go on a date ? lucas : i 'm not angry , mom . at least , i do n't want to be . i 'm just trying to understand . bobbie : [ sighs ] look , i know that i should have said something sooner , and i was about to tell you yesterday . lucas : but you did n't find out yesterday . you 've known this for months . is that why you stayed in port charles after the wedding ? [ chuckles ] and why you 've been so weird with me on the phone . bobbie : i was trying to protect you . lucas : i do n't need you to protect me anymore , mom . bobbie : no matter how old you get , you will always be my baby ! lucas : i 'm a grown man . [ chuckles ] i have a job . i pay my taxes . i have n't needed a babysitter in at least a decade . i just wish you could realize that . bobbie : i 'm sorry . i know i can be overprotective . but julian jerome is dangerous , and i did n't want him to take advantage of your curiosity . lucas : of course i 'm gon na be curious , mom . i 've always wondered about him . and i get it . we 're all worried about carly . but do you really think that this is something that you needed to let me figure out on my own ? bobbie : [ sighs ] sam : lucas , i can totally understand why you 're curious . i was curious , too . but i 'm gon na tell you right now , julian will only disappoint you in the end . lucas : like he disappointed you ? sam : yes , he saved my son 's life by donating bone marrow . i will give him that . lucas : sounds like a point in his favor . sam : julian was n't acting out of kindness or compassion . he was using my son as leverage . he started a mob war with sonny , and he knew that sonny would never kill him , just in case danny would need him again . and if he would use my son , his grandson , as a hostage , can you imagine what he would do to you ? lucas : i appreciate the warning . i probably wo n't want anything to do with him . or maybe i will . either way ... it 's my choice to make . julian : you 're sure ? lavery 's working for corinthos ?

sonny : i 'm sorry , commissioner . i do n't know what you 're asking of me . anna : the shooting at the warehouse ? sonny : yeah ? anna : you know , you sticking that story of yours about you were cleaning your gun and you accidentally shot max . sonny : yeah , that 's what happened . anna : oh . sonny : now , i 'm a little disappointed right now . because you 're harassing me about an accident that happened on my property when you should be looking for carly . anna : robin thinks so highly of you . sonny : why are we talking about robin ? anna : i just believe that it 's because you just show her the one -- the one face . you know , the one aspect of who you really are . the good man , the loyal friend , the loving father . sonny : are you questioning my love for my children ? anna : no , i 'm sure you do love your children -- and all their mothers . and i do n't doubt that your concern for carly is real , but you 're not above using that to stop me from following up on the shooting . see , and that 's the part of you that robin does n't see . the part of you that 's just utterly ruthless . sonny : i do what i have to do to protect what 's mine . anna : i 'm aware of that . so , you 'll be hearing from me . sonny : good save . she just left . duke : i hated doing that . but anna could n't know that i 'm working with you . sonny : she can not know what 's going down tonight . julian : well , avery thinks the only person he 's going to run into is rivera , but instead he 'll find me . and i 'll be the last person he ever sees .

[ scene_break ] iris : cole , this is the barbara ryan . barbara , this is my son , cole . he 's gwennie 's big brother . so , we 're all family here , right ? barbara : let 's cut to the chase . what 's the offer ? iris : well , like i told you , cole 's girlfriend , a gorgeous girl named sofie , she 's expecting . the problem is , they 're broke . they 'd have to put the baby up for adoption anyway . so , you know , this is perfect . a little give , a little take , that 's all . barbara : let 's not get ahead of ourselves , all right ? why should i trust either one of you ? cole : no , she 's right , mom . she 's never met sofie , she 's never even met me . ms. ryan , you can ask me whatever you need to know . barbara : where is the birth mother right now ? and why do we know that she 's going to give up the baby ? cole : leave it to me . sofie 's a smart girl . she 's a great person . once she knows the baby 's going to a good home , that 's all she needs to here . barbara : i do n't like this one bit . iris : oh , do n't worry . cole can do anything he sets his mind to . so we got a deal ? barbara : that would be no . not until you agree to my terms . [ scene_break ] will : parents who want to adopt can post their profiles . and then the mothers that need to give up their babies can respond to them . gwen : i remember when i was pregnant , and i knew i could n't keep the baby . there were tons of people who were waiting for a newborn . and i went with rosanna and craig because they were rich . and they were a sure thing . we 're not going to come off like that . will : on paper , maybe . but we 've got to be patient . gwen : come on , let 's face it . we 're never going to get to the top of that list . will : you ca n't give up before we even try . come on , there 's got to be a baby out there for us somewhere . [ scene_break ] barbara : will and gwen will never know who the baby 's parents are . because if they did , if they knew the two of you were involved , they would never agree . so this whole thing has to be anonymous . i will hire a lawyer who supposedly will be looking for a suitable baby . the birth mother will never contact with the parents and will never identify herself . iris : fine , so gwennie and will kept in the dark . as i told you before , not a problem . barbara : cole and sofie will give the baby up at birth and never look back . and never , ever mention this deal . iris : uh , excuse me . but cole is the kid 's uncle . barbara : a very distant uncle who never sends christmas presents , and always forgets birthday presents . that is my offer and it 's final . cole : understood . these are my terms . three installments . one upfront . one when i get sofie to agree , and the final payoff when the child is born . barbara : you 're a chip off the old block , are n't you ? just as greedy as his mother . you 'll get the first installment when i hire the lawyer . iris : oh , it was a pleasure doing business together , babs . cole : real nice . [ scene_break ] nelson : if you think that you can get a bigger settlement by taking us to court , you 're seriously mistaken . carly : you do n't understand . i know dr. evers did n't mean any harm . it was a mistake . i just want to forget the whole thing ever happened . nelson : well , i 'm certain dr. evers would agree . but the best way to put this matter to rest officially is for you to accept the agreement and sign the settlement . you know , think about what you could do with all that money . [ scene_break ] jack : do n't you worry , brad , i 'm going to be there for carly when she needs me . but katie 's marriage just ended . she does n't need you pushing yourself on her so soon . brad : and that marriage ending -- was n't that your fault ? since when am i the bad guy here ? jack : give me a break . i saw you chasing her around the cemetery at halloween . you really think what she needs in her life right now is a fifth - grader going after her ? brad : maybe what she needs is someone who does n't take things so seriously all the time . maybe what she needs is someone who does n't break every promise he made not to hurt her . jack : i know only too well how much i hurt her . but we are all caught in a situation we had no control over . if carly had n't gotten sick , none of this would have happened . brad : okay , you 're right . you are right . maybe it is not all your fault , but katie is hurting and she needs someone . and i 'm going to be there for her . i 'm not going to push myself on her . i 'm being her friend . if it develops into something more -- awesome . but i will tell you this -- i 'll never do what you did . love her , and then just leave her . jack : you mean like all your other girlfriends ? brad : maybe , maybe i deserve that . but to me , katie is different . jack : you 're damn right she is . brad : i really think i could be good for her . and one thing 's for sure , i will definitely treat her better than you did .

take care . i need a drink . kristen : you know , this is a really small town . we 're probably gon na bump into each other once again . brady : this is gon na sound unkind . i do n't mean it to sound unkind , but you should really consider leaving town . i know you need to stick around for chad for a while , but , kristen ... why do n't you go ... to where your father is , wherever he is , and help him . i 'm sure he could use your company . i 'm sure he 's grieving . kristen : so you want me to leave town because everybody here hates me , right ?

eve : oh , you still think that you can threaten me with my past ? it 's history , liz . t.c . is not going to leave me because of that . liz : i do n't need to use your past , eve . you 're going to lose t.c . because your career is more important to you than he is . the poor man is starved for love and attention , and i am going to see that he gets it . eve : i hate that t.c . is alone in the house with liz , even if she is in the garage apartment . well , she 's probably asleep . she does n't even know that i left . beth : all you angels and saints that my crazy mother is always praying to , hear this . sheridan will never take luis away from me again . he belongs to me , and i will have him , no matter what i have to do . mrs. wallace : god does n't answer wicked people 's prayers . beth : mother , what are you doing up ?

sheridan : i 'm sorry . this is all my fault . luis : no , it isn't . sheridan : i 'm so sorry . pilar : what is her fault ? luis : nothing . sheridan 's just feeling guilty and blaming herself , and she shouldn't . i 'm kind of upset with the way that eve treated her earlier . both of us . pilar : wait . i -- i do n't understand . why would eve be hard on you ? what happened a antonio ? did you do something ? is that why he 's in the hospital ? what have you done to my son ? julian : theresa -- wait , before you do something you 'll regret . theresa : just stay out of it , julian . julian : might i remind you , this is my house , too ?

pilar : then why wo n't you tell me what did happen ? why is antonio in that hospital bed ? sheridan : the reason -- luis : look , antonio was supposed to get specific medication at specific times . pilar : i know that . eve told me that if he did n't take his medication , something terrible could happen . luis : sheridan and i ran into each other at the hotel . we were talking in the hallway . sheridan forgot -- miguel : you forgot to give him his medication ? luis : yes . pilar : my son -- it 's your fault my son will die . you 've killed my son ! ivy : you see , theresa ? you ca n't kick me out of this house . ethan has found a legal reason for me to stay in this house until i am declared the legitimate mrs . crane . theresa : ethan , is that true ? ethan : look , i -- ivy : face it ! you lost , theresa . you ca n't touch me . and now i think i 'll tell you exactly what i think of you . sam : let 's go talk about it in the living room , ok ? grace : yeah , ok . charity : you know what ? the whole family 's upset , and it 's all my fault . jessica : no , it isn't . charity : yes . if i had n't fallen in love with miguel , kay would be with him now . they 'd be together . none of this would have happened . jessica : charity , that 's crazy . charity : no , all the fighting -- it 's my fault . jessica : it 's kay 's fault . you know ? she 's a manipulator , and it really does n't matter what you did or did n't do . she would still be out there spreading her poison and just hurting people . it kills me to say it , but i really just think it 's inin my sister 's nature to be evil . simone : i 'm not going to let whitney steal chad away from me . kay : oh , yeah ? who 's he with right now ? right . simone , we 've both learned that we ca n't trust our sisters . anand you know what ? there 's nothing but disappointment out there anymore . simone : what do you mean ? kay : look around you . ethan and theresa are never going to end up together . sheridan and luis -- do you think they 're going to see happiness ? it wo n't happen . like i said , it 's just disappointment . and not just for me and you . it 's for everyone . everyone in harmony , simone . simone : what are you saying , kay ? are you having premonitions like your mom and charity ? is something bad about to happen ? luis : what are you saying ? you 're blaming us for antonio 's condition ? pilar : i 'm sorry . oh , god , i 'm sorry . i -- i spoke without thinking . i did n't mean to attack you , sheridan . or you , mijo . i i just know you both feel terrible . miguel : look , it 's just that , you know , we 're both so worried about antonio . eve : pilar . miguel . i did n't know you were here . pilar : how is he , eve ? he 's going to be all right , no ? eve : i 'm sorry , pilar . it does n't look good . miguel : he 's going to be all right , mama . i know he is . luis : are you ok ? sheridan : luis , no matter what your mother says , if antonio dies , she 's going to blame me . luis : no . no , sheridan , she won't . sheridan : look , luis , we ca n't be together . all right ? if antonio dies , your family is never going to approve of you marrying a woman that killed your brother . t.c . : i 've got to try eve again . maybe she 'll know what to do about this sleepwalker . [ phone rings ] nurse : e.r . nurse barlow . t.c . yes , i need to speak to -- nurse barlow : hello ? eve : what 's going on ? nurse barlow : i do n't know . whoever called hung up . grace : look , sam , we can talk about kay until we 're blue in the face , but we 're never going to agree . sam : well , i just think if we tried a little harder to listen to what each other is saying . grace : what , are you saying i do n't listen to you ? sam : i did n't say that . but i wish you 'd stop putting all the blame on kay . grace : that 's because i think kay is to blame for all this , and you ' e never going to convince me otherwise . i think she seduced miguel so she could get pregnant and tear miguel and charity apart . sam : you think our daughter 's the one who set this whole thing up ? grace : yes . sam : came up with this scheme , manipulated everyone ? grace : yes . sam : and charity and miguel are n't to blame for any of it ? grace : they 're completely innocent , both of them . sam : all right , well , i 'll agree that charity -- i think she 's innocent in all this , ok ? but i do n't think that we should put the blame on anyone . we should start thinking about the well - being of our daughter and what she needs . grace : look , sam , i thought about what she needs , and what she needs is tough love . sam : well , that 's where i disagree . look what tough love did for us tonight . we were at each other 's throats . grace : oh , and that 's all my fault ? sam : giving kay an ultimatum for her to leave this house i think was a big mistake . all right , thank god she went to bed . grace : ok , look , i think where we made our mistake is not seeing this coming . i mean , lord knows there were enough hints in her behavior along the way . we should have done something about this sooner . sam : look , that 's why i want to try a new approach . you know , instead of you and me at each other 's throats , we should start thinking of a way to reach kay . grace : ok . i 'm listening . sam : well , she keeps talking about how we never gave her enough attention . grace : no , no , no , that 's not true . sam : even if it 's only her perception of the problem , it 's valid . all right , she keeps saying that we ignored her , she always came in second or third or forth on our priority list and i 've got to tell you , i 'm ashamed that my daughter feels that way . grace : you know what , sam ? we never treated her that way . sam : that 's what kay believes . ok ? it 's her reality , and that 's the key to reaching her , to stopping her from leaving this house tonight , even stopping her from coming in between charity and miguel again . kay : no , simone , i 'm not having premonitions like my freaky mom or even freakier cousin . all i 'm saying is women today -- we have to , like , take charge of our lives , you know ? simone : oh , yeah , right . kay : take care of ourselves . you have to look out for number one . you know , i remember when miguel won me a little teddy bear at the country fair . we were 10 . i was already so crazy in love with him even then . simone : i know you hate jessica . but seeing you two fight before ? i mean , kay , it was awful . kay : well , jessica is just a total brat . simone : even with whitney going after chad , i still would never want to fight with her like that . i ca n't imagine that . i mean , the things that you said to her -- kay : simone , no . you just wait untiwhwhitney actually takes chad from you , ok ? and then you 'll see what you can and can not say or do to your sister . simone : look , i do n't think that i would -- kay : think about my mom . you know , she 's all sweetness and light all the time . until she thinks somebody 's trying to make a move on my dad . like ivy crane . and then you see her claws come out , you know ? i do n't think you know . i do n't think anybody really knows just what they 're capable of until someone tries to take the person they love from them . ivy : you are nothing but a squatter , an interloper who conned julian , got him drunk , married him , and then manipulated it , so that he 'd knock you up . ethan : mother -- ivy : you will never be mrs . julian crane , theresa . you will never be anything but the low - life barrio bitch that you are ! ethan : mother ! ivy : no , tacosita , you lost . i won . i won , i won ! ethan : mother , mother , listen to me . i did n't find anything . ivy : i won . ethan : i did n't find anything . ivy : what are you saying ? theresa : well , let me explain , ivy . ethan did n't find any reason why i have to let you stay in this house . so you know what that means ? that `` i won , i won , i won ! `` and you lost . you 're out of here . singer : you are my passion for life ivy : what do you mean , you did n't find anything ? ethan : mother , i 'm sorry . gwen and i -- we tried everything we could , and we -- i could n't come up with -- ivy : but you -- you kept theresa from pushing me out the door . i -- ethan : i wanted to give theresa one last chance to show you some compassion . theresa : oh , i 'll show her some compassion . i 'll compassionately roll her down the driveway , down raven hill , right ononto lakeside boulevard where she can dodge the b.m.w.s . julian : oh , that 's cold , theresa . it 's amusing but cold . ethan : theresa , please . theresa : no , ethan . your mother would love nothing more than to see me dead , and i 'm not going to give her a chance to make that happen by letting h l live here . ivy : surely , there is something else you can do , ethan . ethan : i 'm sorry , mother . if theresa wants to throw you out of this house , she has every legal right to do so . theresa : that 's it . chop , chop . no more stalling . i want you out of this house now . eve : mrs. wallace . pilar : you 're up . i 'm glad to see you 're feeling better . mrs. wallace : oh , that is just so sweet of you , pilar . eve : mrs. wallace , i told you that you could go for a short walk . i did n't mean for you to be on your feet this long . mrs. wallace : oh , i know , doctor . it just feels so good to be up and about . eve : i know , but you ca n't overdo it . mrs. wallace : you 're right . ok , i -- i promise . oh , yeah , yeah -- see ? i 'll just sit down right over here . you know , i just do n't want to go back to that hospital bed . it hurts my tushy . eve : ok . that 's good . you can sit there , just as long as you rest . mrs. wallace : promise , dr . beauty . i will mrs . wallace : oh , no you do n't , little missy . you don't . you leave them be . you are not going to come between sheridan and luis . that 's why i am here to stop you . so you leave them be . beth : shut up , or i am going to send you to that hospital bed permanently . it 's your choice . luis : sheridan -- sheridan , it 's going to be all right . i love you no matter what , ok ? sheridan : but your family -- luis : i do n't care what they think . you are not to blame for antonio 's illnes look , even if he dies , you and i are still going to be together . so do n't worry , do n't blame yourself because this is not your fault . sheridan : i want to believe that -- luis : believe it . sheridan , look , if it comes down to choosing between you and my family , i 'm going to choose you . i love you . you 're the only woman that i love . mrs. wallace : you see that ? you see that , girly girl ? you will never come between them , so give it up . julian : i will say this cold , ruthless side of theresa is quite revelatory . i 'm impressed that she would protect her territory so ferociously . rebecca : oh , put your tongue back in your mouth , pookie . she 's not going to be here that long . julian : oh , yes , your plan . rebecca : mm - hmm . once i get confirmation from my mystery man , she 's going to be out of this house so fast , she 's not going to know what hit her . julian : you 've been babbling about getting rid of theresa for weeks now . nothing 's happened . rebecca : oh , but it will . i promise you it will . gwen : fox , i want you to watch theresa very carefully . fox : an easy task . gwen : i 'm not kidding . you 're seeing her true colors now , seeing what a manipulative , scheming , merciless woman she really is . is that the kind of woman you want to hang around with ? fox : well , you know what ? you 've painted a pretty attractive picture . makes it hard r resist . gwen : fox , i 'm not kidding . be careful . fox : oh , theresa , as much as you do hate her , you do remind me of dear old mumsy . in fact , you 're more of a crane than any of us here . theresa : roll out of here , ivy . put that thing in gear and go . ethan : theresa , be reasonable , ok ? there is a blizzard out there . theresa : reasonable ? ethan , did you hear what your mother just said to me before ? ethan : yes , i heard what she said . i do n't agree with what she said , but she 's still my mother . theresa : she has done nothing but attack me and make my life miserable . ethan : but this is cruel . theresa : look , you know just as well as i do that if the situation were reversed , she would throw me and my baby out into the snow in a heartbeat . hell , she would throw me out into a nuclear winter . ethan : no . theresa , no . she was just upset , were n't you , mother ? oh , you could not be that cold . you could not do that . ivy : no . no , no , no , i wouldn't . theresa : see , ethan ? she 'd not only do it , but she would enjoy watching me and little ethan suffer while we froze to death . well , i 'm showing no mercy , taking no prisoners . ethan : wait , what are you doing ? theresa : i 'm calling the cops . if ivy wo n't leave on her own , i 'll have harmony p.d . come here and cart her away . sam : grace , do you understand what i 'm getting at ? i mean , can we both just stop accusing each other and blaming kay ? let 's just find a way to reach our daughter . grace : ok , sam , i understand where you 're coming from . it 's just that i think that -- sam : no matter what , kay can not leave this house tonight . now , there is a terrible storm out there , ok ? and i know that you would be worried sick if she left . grace : of course i would be worried about her , and i had no intention of having her move out tonight . ok . i 'm willing to try it your way . sam : that 's all i ask . grace : i 'm not going to be able to do it on my own , you know . you 're going to have to help me reach her . sam : i will be there with you every step of the way . grace : simone , how 's kay ? simone : kay is n't happy . grace : you know what ? i think maybe you guys should hit the road , you know ? that storm 's getting really bad . f fact , maybe you should just stay here tonight . whitney : thanks for the very generous offer , mrs . bennett , but we have our parents ' four - wheel drive truck . we 'll be just fine . simone : chad , take me home . grace : ok , you sure ? whitney : well , yes , thanks . sam : now , remember , i mean , this storm is pretty bad , ok ? i want you guys to drive safe . whitney : ok . cool . grace : who 's going to drive ? chad : that 's me . sam : ok . come on , guys , be careful , ok ? tell your mom and dad we said hello when you get there , ok ? whitney : oh , we will . thanks . grace : bundle up , all right ? whitney : ok . bye - bye . chad : bye . whitney : ha a a good night . grace : thanks . you drive safe . sam : bye . grace : hey . you guys , come he . charity : what 's the matter ? did kay leave ? grace : no . jessica : mommy . sam : we just want you both to know that your mother and i love you very , very much . grace 's voice : please , god , do n't let anything destroy my family . kay : damn you , mother ! beth : you 're wrong , mother , as usual . i know exactly what to do to come between luis and sheridan . mrs. wallace : oh , you have been saying that for ages . would you just look at them ? look at them . they 're closer than ever . beth : not for long because what i have in mind is going to work like a charm . mrs. wallace : what is in that wicked mind of yours besides hay ? beth : i 'm just going to have a little chat with sheridan , and when i 'm finished , her and luis will never be together again . luis : i love you . it 's the only thing that matters . do n't you worry about my family , ok ? sheridan : i would hate to come between you and them . luis : well , it 's never going to come to that . sheridan , i love you , ok ? i would do anything for you . i 'll even walk away from my family . i 'll get you a tissue , ok ? sheridan : thank you . beth : you say one word , even open your mouth , and you 'll be eating gruel tomorrow from the nursing home . sheridan , hey . sheridan : hi . beth : i 'm sorry , i could n't help but overhear what you were saying . sheridan : i just feel awful , beth . i blame myself . it 's my fault that antonio is lying in there . beth : yeah , well , it is your fault , sheridan . no matter what luis says , i know that his family will blame you for antonio 's death forever . theresa : i need a patrol car at the crane mansion asap to cart off a trespasser . ivy : i 'm not a trespasser . theresa : a homeless person . officer : sorry , ma'am , but with this blizzard , we have other priorities . power is out all over the place . we 've got auto accidents everywhere . theresa : do you realize who i am ? i am mrs . julian crane . does that name not ring a bell ? my family pays most of the taxes in this town , and those taxes pay your salary . now , if there 's not an officer at my front door in less than 10 minutes , i 'll have your badge . officer : yes , mrs . crane . i 'll have someone out there momentarily . theresa : not momentarily , immediately . your time at the crane mansion is ticking down , ivy , so take a good lk around because you 're never going to see this place again . a police officer is on his way to toss your sorry butt out into the snow . [ phone rings ] sam : hello ? officer : chief bennett , it 's holden . sam : hey , what is it , marty ? marty : mrs. julian crane called , said that there is a domestic dispute over there at the mansion , wants an officer -- sam : which mrs . julian crane ? marty : there 's more than one ? how many ? sam : there 's too many . was there violence involved ? marty : she did n't mention violence . sam : well , send over an officer . marty : that 's just it , chief . everyone 's tied up with this blizzard . i do n't have anybody available unless i go , but that would mean -- sam : no , no , no , you -- you stay put . hold down the fort . i 'll spe t to you later . grace : who was that on the phone ? sam : it was work . there 's been a domestic dispute , and we 're short of men , so i have to go . grace : i ca n't believe it . you 're just going to leave when the whole house is in turmoil ? eve : i wish there was something more i could tell you , pilar , something more i could do . pilar : i know you 're doing everything you can , eve , and we 're very grateful . i 'm worried about you , though . eve : me ? pilar : you 're spending so much time at this hospital . what about your family ? what about t.c . ? eve : t.c . 's fine . and i 'll see him when i get home . t.c . : she locked the door . liz : make love to me . simone : it was so hard being at the bennetts ' tonight . i mean , i never would have thought that that family would have so many problems . chad : yeah , it 's a shame . simone : i mean , kay and jessica being at each other 's throats like that ? i wonder what i would be driven to do if you ever betrayed me , whitney . but i know that that would never happen . you would nevebetray me . whitney : well , at least we do n't have to worry about our parents fighting . they have an absolutely perfect marriage . nothing can ever come between them . simone : chad , the turn ! luis : any change ? miguel : he 's still the same . pilar : all weanan do is pray for him . mrs. wallace : oh , that wicked daughter of mine . the nerve of her . sheridan : beth -- beth : look , sheridan , i have been very supportive of you and luis , done everything i could to keep you together , but this time , you 've gone too far . you married antonio , and just when he needed you most , you let him down . you know , you say that pilar was like a second mother to you , and i 'll grant you that , ok ? but while pilar was taking care of you at the crane mansion , i was helping luis change paloma 's diapers . the lopez fitzgeralds are like a second family to me , and i will not stand by and watch you tear apart the family that he loves . because you will be responsible for killing his brother . face it , sheridan . you and luis can never be together . sam : if grace knew where i was going , that i might see ivy , there would be more trouble in this house than we already have . eve : chad was giving whitney and simone a ride home . i hope they made it ok . | things heated up at the crane mansion while ethan and gwen returned to get in between the dispute between ivy and theresa . ivy mistook ethans return as he found a legal loop hole so she was not legally forced by theresa to leave . this sent her on a verbal rampage and she let theresa know exactly what she thinks of her . but once she found that ethan had no loop hole theresa called the cops and continued to demand ivy get out . over at the bennets kay was hastily packing and telling simone that you 'll never know just how dirty a girl can play when someone else takes away the man she loves . sam gets a call from the police station to settle a domestic dispute at the crane mansion and tells a very upset grace he has to leave . simone , chad , and whitney head home in their parents vehicle but the storm is too bad and they end up in a accident . at the hospital pilar voices her opinion on antonio 's condition and the fact that sheridan neglected his medication . luis tells her it 's not her fault and he 'll stick by her no matter what his family says . beth overhears it all and tells sheridan that she has tore apart the lopez - fitzgerald family and that she wo n't stand by and watch it . liz is still sleepwalking and not only does she kiss t.c . she asks him to make love to her . | <s>[INST] theresa : out ! out ! wheel that damn thing out of my house now . ivy : i 'm going as quickly as i can , theresa . theresa : it ca n't be fast enough for me . i am sick of you plotting against me , disparaging my family , and i want you out of my house now . julian : theresa , perhaps you should rethink this . there is a blizzard raging out there . fox : yeah , theresa , come on . i mean , do n't you think you 've taken this joke just a tad too far ? theresa : you think i 'm joking ? i want this woman out of the mansion now . rebecca : ivy , would you please hurry up ? i do n't want to catch pneumonia . ivy : you deserve to catch the plague , all of you , for not standing up for me . theresa : move it , ivy . ivy : oh , i must have some legal recourse . theresa : you have got nothing . do you hear me ? nada . ivy : ethan and gwen are working on it . they 're going to come up with something . they have to . if i have to leave here tonight , i do n't know where i 'm going to go . gwen : i can not believe how cruel theresa is being to ivy . ethan : mother did say some pretty terrible things about theresa and her family . gwen : that 's no excuse for throwing poor ivy out of the house on a night like this . i mean , surely you 're not defending theresa 's actions . ethan : absolutely not . gwen : there must be some legality , some case or precedent that will prevent theresa from doing this . ethan : let 's hope so . ethan : that 's it . i know what we have to do . gwen : what ? ethan : come on . we need to talk to theresa and my mother right now . grace : sam ? sam : no thanks . whitney : i 'd love -- i 'd love to have a piece , mrs . bennett . simone : me , too . i mean , no one makes a tomato soup cake like you do , mrs . bennett . whitney : that 's true . charity : yeah . chad : it 's prime . jessica : it 's the best , mom . grace : well , thanks , guys . i 'm glad you all like it . you know , i want to apologize for what happened here earlier , you know ? it 's usually not so chaotic here . sam : kay is our daughter . maybe we should deal with her first . grace : ca n't you see what is going on here , sam ? this is complete manipulation . sam : well , how 's that ? you know , kay did n't get pregnant by herself . grace : no . but sometimes i wonder just how she managed to get miguel into bed with her . sam : i ca n't believe you said that . grace : i 'm going to bring kay something eat . you know , all this tension is n't good for her or the baby . sam : no , it isn't . grace : i just hope she 's not still determined to move out tonight . i think if she goes outotonight , something terrible could happen to her or the baby . kay : i ca n't wait to get the hell out of this house . eve : i 'm warning you , liz . i want you to get it out of your head about trying to steal t.c . from me . he loves me , and i love him . and there is no way that i 'm going to let some woman who is hellbent on revenge take him away from me . liz : how are you going to stop me , eve ? eve : oh , you still think that you can threaten me with my past ? it 's history , liz . t.c . is not going to leave me because of that . liz : i do n't need to use your past , eve . you 're going to lose t.c . because your career is more important to you than he is . the poor man is starved for love and attention , and i am going to see that he gets it . eve : i hate that t.c . is alone in the house with liz , even if she is in the garage apartment . well , she 's probably asleep . she does n't even know that i left . beth : all you angels and saints that my crazy mother is always praying to , hear this . sheridan will never take luis away from me again . he belongs to me , and i will have him , no matter what i have to do . mrs. wallace : god does n't answer wicked people 's prayers . beth : mother , what are you doing up ? you just had a heart attack . mrs. wallace : yeah , a mild one , luckily . not enough to prevent me from stopping you , little missy . beth : nothing is going to stop me from getting my man , certainly not an old hag like you . mrs. wallace : oh -- beth : i wish that heart attack had really killed you . mrs. wallace : oh , oh , oh -- saints and angels , please , please , you protect sheridan and luis from that wicked , wicked daughter of mine . please . pilar : antonio ! miguel : what happened ? sheridan : i 'm sorry . this is all my fault . luis : no , it isn't . sheridan : i 'm so sorry . pilar : what is her fault ? luis : nothing . sheridan 's just feeling guilty and blaming herself , and she shouldn't . i 'm kind of upset with the way that eve treated her earlier . both of us . pilar : wait . i -- i do n't understand . why would eve be hard on you ? what happened a antonio ? did you do something ? is that why he 's in the hospital ? what have you done to my son ? julian : theresa -- wait , before you do something you 'll regret . theresa : just stay out of it , julian . julian : might i remind you , this is my house , too ? theresa : and you chose your one guest -- rebecca . rebecca : thank you , pookie . theresa : so ivy 's gone . out of here . julian : i do n't mind you banishing ivy from the mansion . ivy : oh , i will remember that , julian . julian : please , do n't ma m me regret what i 'm about to say . but perhaps we could let her stay somewhere else on the grounds . theresa : no . julian : she could freeze to death out there . theresa : ivy has ice water in her veins . she 'll be right at home in the snow . ivy : no , no -- theresa : and out you go . ivy : no , no , no ! ethan : theresa , stop this ! ivy : oh , ethan . oh , thank god . thank god . you found some legal reason to keep me in the house , right ? i knew you would . it 's wonderful . tell this low - rent bitch that she ca n't kick me out of my own home , that i 've won ! jessica : mom , maybe kay was n't serious about moving out . i mean , we all know what a drama queen she can be . grace : i know , sweetie , but she sounded really serious this time , and i 'm just really worried about her and the baby . charity : i feel terrible . this whole mess is my fault . grace : no , sweetheart , this is not your fault . none of it is . simone , would you mind going up and checking on kay , seeing how she 's doing ? simone : ok . chad , come with me . grace : oh , no , sweetheart , i think maybe you should go by yourself . i mean , you 're her best friend . maybe she 'll open up to you . simone : all right . grgrace : see if you can get her something to eat . simone : ok . grace : ok . sam : grace , now that everything has calmed down , i think we should really talk about how we approach kay . grace : what do you mean , `` approach `` ? sam : our attitude . you know , if we keep pushing her , we 're going to lose her . we 're going to lose her forever . simone : kay ? what are you doing ? kay : what does it look like i 'm doing ? packing . simone : you 're actually going to move out ? kay : i 'm not going to spend another night in this house , simone . i 'm just going to take some of my clothes with me tonight , and then i 'll send the movers for the rest of it when i get settled someplace . simone : kay , you ca n't do this . think about your family . kay : you actually think my family 's going to care if i leave , simone ? my mother will be thrilled to see the last of me . and jessica -- well , we both know she 's not going to take my side ever . simone : sisters are supposed to be loyal . kay : well , being a sister is n't exactly what it used to be , is it , simone ? i mean , look at your sister . every time you turn around , she 's trying to steal your man from you . charity : sorry . chad : it 's really getting to me , whitney . i mean , how much longer are we going to have to hide our relationship ? i 'm not just talking about simone . everyone . whitney : look , i 'm worried about telling simone . you saw how kay and jessica were fighting before . i do n't want that to happen to us . i do n't want our whole relationship to be completely destroyed like that . chad : but we 're lying to her , whit . and if simone finds out before we tell her , she 'll never forgive you . whitney : i 'm going to tell her , chad . i promise you that . chad : when ? whitney : not tonight , ok ? and look at liz and her sister . i do n't want that kind of relationship for me and simone . they had a falling out years ago , and they still do n't talk to one another . chad : well , i wonder what happened between them . i mean , liz is so bitter when she talks about her . it 's le e she wants revenge . whitney : i do n't know . i mean , i wonder how far one sister would go to get revenge on the another sister . t.c . : i 've got this woman is a sleepwalker in my house , and i do n't know what to do . i mean , i know you 're not supposed to wake them up . is that right ? nurse : that 's right . the best thing to do is just leave her alone , let her enact whatever she 's dreaming . it could be dangerous to stop her or to try to wake her up . t.c . : i wish i could get ahold of eve . she would tell me how to deal with liz and her sleepwalking . luis : what happened is no one 's fault , ok ? pilar : then why wo n't you tell me what did happen ? why is antonio in that hospital bed ? sheridan : the reason -- luis : look , antonio was supposed to get specific medication at specific times . pilar : i know that . eve told me that if he did n't take his medication , something terrible could happen . luis : sheridan and i ran into each other at the hotel . we were talking in the hallway . sheridan forgot -- miguel : you forgot to give him his medication ? luis : yes . pilar : my son -- it 's your fault my son will die . you 've killed my son ! ivy : you see , theresa ? you ca n't kick me out of this house . ethan has found a legal reason for me to stay in this house until i am declared the legitimate mrs . crane . theresa : ethan , is that true ? ethan : look , i -- ivy : face it ! you lost , theresa . you ca n't touch me . and now i think i 'll tell you exactly what i think of you . sam : let 's go talk about it in the living room , ok ? grace : yeah , ok . charity : you know what ? the whole family 's upset , and it 's all my fault . jessica : no , it isn't . charity : yes . if i had n't fallen in love with miguel , kay would be with him now . they 'd be together . none of this would have happened . jessica : charity , that 's crazy . charity : no , all the fighting -- it 's my fault . jessica : it 's kay 's fault . you know ? she 's a manipulator , and it really does n't matter what you did or did n't do . she would still be out there spreading her poison and just hurting people . it kills me to say it , but i really just think it 's inin my sister 's nature to be evil . simone : i 'm not going to let whitney steal chad away from me . kay : oh , yeah ? who 's he with right now ? right . simone , we 've both learned that we ca n't trust our sisters . anand you know what ? there 's nothing but disappointment out there anymore . simone : what do you mean ? kay : look around you . ethan and theresa are never going to end up together . sheridan and luis -- do you think they 're going to see happiness ? it wo n't happen . like i said , it 's just disappointment . and not just for me and you . it 's for everyone . everyone in harmony , simone . simone : what are you saying , kay ? are you having premonitions like your mom and charity ? is something bad about to happen ? luis : what are you saying ? you 're blaming us for antonio 's condition ? pilar : i 'm sorry . oh , god , i 'm sorry . i -- i spoke without thinking . i did n't mean to attack you , sheridan . or you , mijo . i i just know you both feel terrible . miguel : look , it 's just that , you know , we 're both so worried about antonio . eve : pilar . miguel . i did n't know you were here . pilar : how is he , eve ? he 's going to be all right , no ? eve : i 'm sorry , pilar . it does n't look good . miguel : he 's going to be all right , mama . i know he is . luis : are you ok ? sheridan : luis , no matter what your mother says , if antonio dies , she 's going to blame me . luis : no . no , sheridan , she won't . sheridan : look , luis , we ca n't be together . all right ? if antonio dies , your family is never going to approve of you marrying a woman that killed your brother . t.c . : i 've got to try eve again . maybe she 'll know what to do about this sleepwalker . [ phone rings ] nurse : e.r . nurse barlow . t.c . yes , i need to speak to -- nurse barlow : hello ? eve : what 's going on ? nurse barlow : i do n't know . whoever called hung up . grace : look , sam , we can talk about kay until we 're blue in the face , but we 're never going to agree . sam : well , i just think if we tried a little harder to listen to what each other is saying . grace : what , are you saying i do n't listen to you ? sam : i did n't say that . but i wish you 'd stop putting all the blame on kay . grace : that 's because i think kay is to blame for all this , and you ' e never going to convince me otherwise . i think she seduced miguel so she could get pregnant and tear miguel and charity apart . sam : you think our daughter 's the one who set this whole thing up ? grace : yes . sam : came up with this scheme , manipulated everyone ? grace : yes . sam : and charity and miguel are n't to blame for any of it ? grace : they 're completely innocent , both of them . sam : all right , well , i 'll agree that charity -- i think she 's innocent in all this , ok ? but i do n't think that we should put the blame on anyone . we should start thinking about the well - being of our daughter and what she needs . grace : look , sam , i thought about what she needs , and what she needs is tough love . sam : well , that 's where i disagree . look what tough love did for us tonight . we were at each other 's throats . grace : oh , and that 's all my fault ? sam : giving kay an ultimatum for her to leave this house i think was a big mistake . all right , thank god she went to bed . grace : ok , look , i think where we made our mistake is not seeing this coming . i mean , lord knows there were enough hints in her behavior along the way . we should have done something about this sooner . sam : look , that 's why i want to try a new approach . you know , instead of you and me at each other 's throats , we should start thinking of a way to reach kay . grace : ok . i 'm listening . sam : well , she keeps talking about how we never gave her enough attention . grace : no , no , no , that 's not true . sam : even if it 's only her perception of the problem , it 's valid . all right , she keeps saying that we ignored her , she always came in second or third or forth on our priority list and i 've got to tell you , i 'm ashamed that my daughter feels that way . grace : you know what , sam ? we never treated her that way . sam : that 's what kay believes . ok ? it 's her reality , and that 's the key to reaching her , to stopping her from leaving this house tonight , even stopping her from coming in between charity and miguel again . kay : no , simone , i 'm not having premonitions like my freaky mom or even freakier cousin . all i 'm saying is women today -- we have to , like , take charge of our lives , you know ? simone : oh , yeah , right . kay : take care of ourselves . you have to look out for number one . you know , i remember when miguel won me a little teddy bear at the country fair . we were 10 . i was already so crazy in love with him even then . simone : i know you hate jessica . but seeing you two fight before ? i mean , kay , it was awful . kay : well , jessica is just a total brat . simone : even with whitney going after chad , i still would never want to fight with her like that . i ca n't imagine that . i mean , the things that you said to her -- kay : simone , no . you just wait untiwhwhitney actually takes chad from you , ok ? and then you 'll see what you can and can not say or do to your sister . simone : look , i do n't think that i would -- kay : think about my mom . you know , she 's all sweetness and light all the time . until she thinks somebody 's trying to make a move on my dad . like ivy crane . and then you see her claws come out , you know ?

[ scene_break ] sami : lucas , just hear me out for a second . forget for a second that we 're talking about your mom . if she is the kind of woman who would bribe a judge to keep shawn in jail , then she is the kind of woman who would set me up so that you would n't want to marry me . lucas : sami , when our wedding blew up , it did n't just hurt you . i know my mom 's done some bad things , but she would n't deliberately ruin my life and will 's -- she could n't do that . sami : you bet your ass she could .

[ scene_break ] mimi : there you are . belle : what 's wrong ? mimi : i just came from the jail . belle : what were you doing there ? are n't you glad to be out ? mimi : belle , hello ? i went to visit shawn . remember him -- the guy you used to be in love with ? and probably still are . belle : okay , i am married to the right man , mimi . do n't say things like that . mimi : i know you are , but , still , what about shawn ? the judge revoked his bail , and now he 's stuck in a cell . and trust me -- it 's not much fun in there . he really needs you . belle : well , he 's gon na have to learn to live without me sometime . mimi : okay , i agree , but maybe after he 's not in jail anymore ? right now he 's really hurting . and the only reason he 's behind bars is because he loves you so much . he flew off to germany to be with you instead of staying here for his hearing . belle : i know . mimi : come on , belle . go see him . [ scene_break ] jailer : cheer up . you got a visitor . five minutes -- that 's all you get . lucas : i appreciate it . thanks . oh , man , i 'm sorry you ended up in here , okay ? shawn d. : yeah , a lot of good that does me . lucas : look , man , i 'd be bitter if i were you , too . i mean , you went out of your way to organize us all to help rescue philip , and that judge would n't even grant you bail because you missed a court hearing ? shawn d. : maybe you should ask your mom about that . lucas : what ? [ scene_break ] kate : for your re - election campaign . judge fitzpatrick : this is so generous of you , kate . kate : well , i like your ethics . you 're tough on crime . the country needs more judges like you , karen . and , also , i appreciate you denying bail to shawn brady . believe me , that boy is trouble with a capital `` t. `` judge fitzpatrick : i would n't want anyone to think that this was a quid pro quo . kate : oh , nonsense . we 're just two people of a like mind . i think you sent a message with your decision in shawn brady 's case -- young people need to obey the law just like the rest of us , do n't they ? and as for that check , well , that 's just a voluntary contribution to a cause i believe in . the two things have absolutely nothing to do with each other . i mean , it 's not my fault that shawn brady is an obvious flight risk . i mean , he brought the judgment down on himself , did n't he ? but i 'm not gon na say that i would n't be happy if he was behind bars for a long time , because it would give my son a little time to work on his marriage . judge fitzpatrick : you 're a very determined mother . kate : yes , i am . i am determined . i 'm determined that no one will hurt my children and get away with it . believe me , philip is going to have a chance to find a little happiness with his wife . [ scene_break ] sami : [ thinking ] i know eugenia has proof that kate set me up . i just have to find it . eugenia : what in the heck was that ? [ scene_break ] like sands through the hourglass , so are the days of our lives . [ scene_break ] kate : you see , if shawn brady is behind bars , then it gives my son philip a fighting chance to keep his wife . actually , it would be ideal if shawn was behind bars for the rest of his life . judge fitzpatrick : oh , i 'm afraid i ca n't guarantee that . [ scene_break ] [ indistinct conversations ] eugenia : no one 's out here . i must be hearing things . poor thing . sami : [ breathes heavily ] [ metal bangs ] sami : damn it . now how am i gon na get in there ? [ scene_break ] mimi : i know you 're with philip now . and it 's a good thing . i 'm not saying that you made the wrong choice . it just broke my heart to see shawn in jail . and i hate to do this to you , but he really needs you right now . belle : i 'm married to philip , okay ? there 's nothing i can do . mimi : is n't that a little harsh ? i mean , up until you chose philip , shawn still thought that you were gon na spend your life with him . you ca n't just get over a person just like that . you have philip . who does shawn have ? i 'm sorry i 'm upsetting you . belle : no , i 'm just -- i 'm a little stressed out . i have n't been feeling well lately . lexie thinks i might have an ulcer . mimi : i do n't know . it could be a sign from your body telling you that you 've made the wrong decision . belle : do n't say things like that , okay ? ! i 'm trying to stay positive . i 'm married to philip , and i have to stay faithful to him . mimi : people are n't always faithful , you know ? marriages break up . happens all the time -- happened to my parents . belle : mimi , it 's not like i do n't love philip . i do . and this is kind of a special circumstance . mimi : i know you love him -- just in a different way . sorry . i should n't have said that . look , i 'm just having trouble understanding how you can turn your back on shawn like that when he needs you most . ca n't you just at least be a friend and go see him ? [ scene_break ] philip : what 's up , meems ? mimi : oh , hi . philip : what 's wrong with you ? and where 's belle ? mimi : nothing 's wrong . no . she -- she went to run some errands . how 'd your therapy go ? philip : it was hard . it was really hard . but it was good . i 'm actually glad i ran into you , though , because i got to ask you to help me with something . mimi : anything . what do you need ? philip : i 've been thinking a lot about how shawn 's in jail , and i do n't like it . it 's not right . mimi : i 'm surprised you feel that way . philip : mimi , if shawn did n't have the guts to put together that rescue mission , i would n't be here talking to you . now , obviously , shawn and i have had our problems . we 've had a lot of problems . but you know he used to be my best friend . and when it really mattered , he was there for me . i 'm not gon na let him sit in some jail cell because he could n't get back from germany in time for his hearing . mimi : my mom told me that mickey 's trying to get him out on bail , but judge fitzpatrick is being really tough , which is no surprise . she 's the judge i went up against . philip : wait a second . judge fitzpatrick . my mom is friends with her . i mean , not that my mom would go to bat for shawn , but i could do it myself . mimi : are you sure ? philip : yeah , i 'm sure . it would make belle happy . so i 'll do it . [ scene_break ] frankie : all right , max , i 'll tell you this one more time . they are happily married -- very happily married , i might add , okay ? nothing will come between them . not lockhart and certainly some old high - school crush . max : yeah , but you ca n't win the fight without throwing the first punch , huh ? frankie : you 're such an idiot . max : ca n't throw a punch ? huh ? come on . no , come on . let 's do this . frankie : uh - huh . max : whooh . too fast , too fast . come on , do n't be a wuss . that 's one . frankie : you asked for it . max : i did n't mean it , though .

[ scene_break ] abby : whoops . what happened ? you do n't exactly look satisfied . chelsea : that witch switched rooms with patrick . abby : you got ta admit , it does make more sense . chelsea : she did it on purpose . she wants patrick for herself . well , she can think again . if she keeps trying to set up roadblocks between me and my guy , i 'm just gon na set down every single one .

[ scene_break ] sami : lucas , look at all the phone calls that eugenia has made to kate . i mean , look at all this . it 's not like they 're members of the same country club , you know ? it 's not like kate and eugenia are hanging out together . lucas : yeah , i know . sami : why all the calls ? because they were working together to break us up . somehow kate got eugenia to help her destroy me . now do you believe me ? [ scene_break ] max : cannonball ! bonnie : no ! jennifer : whah ! oh , man . frankie , i 'm saying i do n't want to go behind jack 's back like this , but i know the situations he 's capable of getting himself into . and i just got him back . i do n't want anything or anyone to take him away from me again , not ever . frankie : jen , do n't worry . i will be subtle . he 'll never know i 'm running surveillance on him , okay ? jennifer : okay . thank you . come here . come say hi to bonnie again . frankie : who ?

[ scene_break ] eugenia : do n't even think about trying to brush me off . kate : i am running a business here . i ca n't keep taking your phone calls , eugenia . eugenia : that 's exactly why i 'm calling . you 've got a corporation , and i need a job , so the easiest way to get me to stop calling is to hire me . or , you know , who knows what could happen ? kate : is that a threat ? eugenia : it 's a , uh , negotiating tool . i learned that from you . so either get me a job or support me . you choose . kate : [ chuckles ] oh , i 'll give you money . but sami ca n't know about it , because , believe me , eugenia , she smells blood . [ scene_break ] sami : lucas , just hear me out for a second . forget for a second that we 're talking about your mom . if she is the kind of woman who would bribe a judge to keep shawn in jail , then she is the kind of woman who would set me up so that you would n't want to marry me . lucas : sami , when our wedding blew up , it did n't just hurt you . i know my mom 's done some bad things , but she would n't deliberately ruin my life and will 's -- she could n't do that . sami : you bet your ass she could .

[ scene_break ] patrick : yeah , i ca n't take having jack on my case all the time . what is his problem ? billie : it 's just because he thought you were after his wife , but do n't worry . he 'll get over it once he thinks that you 're involved with someone else . where 's chelsea ? patrick : i do n't know . she and abby went up to chelsea 's room . billie : and where 's max ?

theresa : hey , mama . what are you doing here so early ? pilar : vine a chequearte . i 'm glad dr . russell postponed the procedure until today . hopefully , you 've had time to think -- reconsider your decision . theresa : i do n't want to argue , mama . pilar : theresa , i was up all night praying , hoping that you 'd see the light . remember what the church teaches us ? life is sacred . theresa : we went through this . pilar : the idea that you would choose your child over ethan and gwen 's -- it 's just horrible beyond belief . you do n't -- you do n't even know one of these babies is your child with ethan . theresa : i do n't , mama , you 're right . pilar : so you 'll abandon this unspeakable notion of playing god with the two lives inside you ? theresa : mama , if i do n't sacrifice one of these babies , they both die . pilar : that 's god 's choice , theresa , not yours . theresa : no , see , god has given medical science a way to save one of my children . pilar : mira , theresa , even if our holy mother appeared and said that she would make an exception this one time , she would never , ever condone your scheming to choose your baby with ethan instead of his with gwen 's . jamas , theresa ! theresa : mama , i do n't want to lose either one of these babies , but if i do n't act to save one of them , they both will die . and after everything gwen and rebecca have done to us -- they took my child away from me , mama . they took our jobs , they took our home . i am not about to lose another child to gwen . pilar : que dios nos ayude . theresa : mama , i 'm going to have dr . russell run these d.n.a . tests . i 'm going to find out which baby is mine with ethan , and that 's the one i 'm going to keep . gwen : honey , thank you so much for convincing theresa to have this procedure . eve : i 'm glad she 's decided to go through with it . gwen : i mean , it 's horrible it had to come to this . you know ? but if theresa had n't agreed to the procedure , then both of our babies would have died . and what did you say to her to change her mind ? katherine : sheridan is so disappointed in me . i promised to tell her about her mother , and then i broke my promise when alistair reminded us of the consequences . julian and sheridan would hate me for abandoning them as children and for deceiving them as adults . martin : luis and the rest of my family would hate me , too . and alistair would n't let it end there . he 'd make our life hell for the embarrassment your being alive would cause him . katherine : yeah , and people would think that i had left him to be with you , not that we left town to save our lives , convinced that our children would -- would escape his wrath . martin : yeah , well , i 've been up all night thinking about this . and i realize there 's only one thing for us to do . katherine -- katherine : what ? martin : we have to leave harmony . leave our loved ones for good -- their own good . or alistair will destroy them all . sheridan : luis -- luis ! luis : sheridan ? relax . sheridan : oh . luis : i 'm right here . sheridan : oh , thank god . when you were n't beside me , i -- i just -- i thought -- luis : thought what ? alistair was up to his old tricks again ? sheridan : yeah . luis : well , the fellow 's always up to something . after what we saw with the wheelers last night , i see he 's not the only one . sheridan : yeah , mrs . wheeler was going to tell me about my mother , but then wouldn't . luis : yeah , same thing with mr . wheeler about my father . they 're keeping secrets from us . sheridan : hey , what is that ? what are you doing ? luis : hmm . just making a chart of everything we know about the wheelers . i 'll figure out who they really are , what their connection is to us , to alistair , to harmony , your mother , my father . everything , if it 's the last thing i do .

[ katherine sighs ] katherine : leave harmony forever ? martin : the sooner , the better . katherine : oh , martin , i do n't know if i could do that . to never see julian and sheridan again ? i abandoned my children once already . martin : to protect them from alistair . katherine : but that 's not what happened . he took all his rage at me out on them . oh , martin , if you could have seen sheridan 's face -- the hope , the happiness when i was telling her stories about her mother when she was a little girl . how she suffered at alistair 's hands , how he forced her to abandon her children . i do n't know -- i just have to believe that sheridan would understand and that she would forgive me . martin : i wonder . katherine : well , even if she did n't , if i told her the truth , maybe it would help this awful guilt she bears because alistair told her that she was responsible for my death . it might help her heal and get free of all of alistair 's lies . martin : yes , but telling sheridan the truth might make her hate you for leaving her , letting her think that you were dead . my god , alistair could end up looking like a victim in all this . katherine : oh . i never considered that . martin : now , i 'm in the same boat with my family . i mean , would they really accept that i left them in poverty to save the life of one of the world 's wealthiest women ? think of the spin that alistair would put on that . he 'd claim that we were lovers in the beginning , and that we abandoned our families to live the good life in mexico . katherine : he 'd say anything to save face . martin : and to take away any hope of our loved ones ever forgiving us . damn alistair for putting us in this position , forcing us to leave harmony and our families a second time . sheridan : you really think that you can figure out who the wheelers really are ? luis : well , the clues are all there . i just have to connect them . well , look what i got so far -- all right , both mr . and mrs . wheeler used to live in harmony . mr. wheeler worked for alistair and she knew him socially . sheridan : and mr . wheeler told you that there were clues about your father 's disappearance at the gazebo . luis : that 's right . and alistair , coincidentally , had the gazebo bulldozed before i could investigate . sheridan : right . and then last night , mr . and mrs . wheeler said they were going to tell us something really important about my mother and your father , until we ran into my father and they clammed up . luis : yeah , well , on top of that , mrs . wheeler tried to kill alistair -- twice . sheridan : she said she was trying to protect me . luis : yeah . why , ok ? i mean , no offense , but you 've only known mrs . wheeler since the summer . sheridan : yeah , but i feel like i 've known her my entire life . luis : well , that 's the thing . i feel the exact same connection with mr . wheeler . and mama and julian said they felt the same connection . all right ? what are the odds that mr . and mrs . wheeler come from the same town and are staying at the same inn as paloma ? sheridan : a million to one . luis : yeah , only i do n't think it 's a coincidence . i think who they are is tied to where they come from . sheridan : yeah . the wheelers were about to tell us something . something big . and we 've got to find out what it is . luis : you 're right . and that 's why i think it 's time for me to take my investigation to the next level . sheridan : how ? luis : i took these glasses from the wheelers ' room . i 'm going to have a friend down at headquarters lift the fingerprints , run them through an f.b.i . database . then we 'll know who the wheelers really are . ethan : rebecca , please , do n't -- do n't start , all right ? the situation is difficult enough without your making gwen suspicious of theresa , ok ? rebecca : look , i 'm just reminding you both that theresa is a liar , a cheat , and a shameless opportunist who never does anything unless it 's in her own best interest . gwen : mother , normally i would agree with you . but theresa went against her religious beliefs to agree to sacrifice one baby to save the other . rebecca : but why , hmm ? what made her decide to do that ? gwen : not what , mother , who . rebecca : do n't confuse me with grammar . gwen : mother , it was ethan . he convinced theresa to have the procedure . rebecca : oh . it was ethan . hmm . whatever did you promise her to make her do what you wanted ? ethan : i did n't promise her anything , rebecca . rebecca : oh , ethan , come on . you must have offered her some kind of -- bone . ethan : ok , let it go , all right ? she agreed to have the procedure , period . gwen : he 's right , ok ? for once -- for once , theresa 's actually doing something to help us . and ethan and i are going to have our own biological child . rebecca : hmm . yeah , you 'd think so , would n't you ? ethan : what 's that supposed to mean ? rebecca : look , when you 're dealing with theresa , there is always some kind of catch . i just do n't know what it is yet . but i promise you , there is one . and if the two of you are not preparing for the worst , then you are just asking for trouble . eve : theresa , what do you mean , you want to know which one of the two babies is yours ? theresa : just that . i need to know which one of these babies i 'm carrying is mine . eve : theresa , neither one of these babies is yours . these are gwen and -- and ethan 's babies . remember ? you tricked the staff into impregnating you with gwen 's fertilized embryo . pilar : if only it were that simple . eve : oh , god . what is it , theresa ? what have you done this time ? martin : katherine , if you killed alistair , we would n't be free . you 'd still be in jail awaiting trial for murder . and , honey , i do n't want to lose you that way . katherine : yes , but if i 'd killed alistair , he would no longer be a menace to our children . martin : that 's why we have to leave harmony -- so alistair will leave our children alone . katherine : but he did n't last time . martin : this time 's different . our being here threatens alistair . if our true identities come out , the world will know why we left -- that alistair abused you , that he tried to kill me for protecting you . the scandal would send crane industries stock into a nosedive and weaken alistair 's power . but most of all , he 'd be humiliated for people to know that the almighty alistair crane lost his wife to one of them -- me . leaving harmony lets alistair save face , and that 's more important to him than hurting our children . katherine : but where would we go ? you know he 'll follow us . there 's no place he would n't find us . martin : i know . that 's the risky part . we 'll have to stay on the move and keep one step ahead , that 's all . katherine : that 's horrible . we 'll be people without a country , without a home . martin : i know , i know . but it 's the only way . if we stay here , we 're sitting ducks for alistair . sheridan : do n't people have to be criminals for the f.b.i . to have their fingerprints on file ? luis : not necessarily . a lot of times , people are fingerprinted for their jobs or identity protection , security reasons -- things like that . sheridan : hmm . so there 's a chance that mr . and mrs . wheeler 's fingerprints could be on file ? luis : oh , yeah . well , there 's a real good chance . in fact , with any luck , we should know who the wheelers really are before sunset . sheridan : luis , wait . what if there 's a reason why the wheelers are hiding their true identity ? i mean , what if finding out the truth hurts both them and -- and us ? luis : well , i do n't think anything bad comes from the truth . it 's the secrets that hurt . sheridan : i hope you 're right . luis : trust me . now , look , why do n't you go get showered and dressed while i call my buddy down at the station . sheridan : ok . ofc . kirkman : harmony p.d . , officer kirkman speaking . luis : kirkman , hey , it 's me , luis . hey , listen , i need a favor . ofc . kirkman : anything for you , pal . luis : great . look , i 've got a couple of drinking glasses with two sets of prints which i need lifted and then run through the f.b.i . database . think you can handle that ? ofc . kirkman : yeah , yeah , sure , luis . what 's this about ? luis : it 's -- it 's about finding out who the wheelers really are . ofc . kirkman : ok . well , i 'll be here ready to go . luis : all right , i 'll see you soon . thanks . luis : wheelers . well , let 's just hope we 're all still smiling when we find out who you really are , and what your connection is to me and sheridan . i mean why would n't they ? these are all md , ñ `` global national `` with kevin newman . the world at 6 : 30 . sooner . better . singer : you are my passion for life martin : there 's no chance to fix this , is there ? we damn our loved ones if we stay in harmony , and we damn any chance of reuniting with them if we leave . [ martin sighs ] katherine : we were naive to think we could make things right after all these years . martin : yeah , well , my family thinks that i walked out the door and i never looked back , and julian and sheridan think you 're dead . katherine : i remember seeing my final resting place for the first time -- the crane mausoleum -- talking with sheridan and seeing her pain , thinking that her birth led eventually to my death . martin : alistair 's cruelest lie of all . katherine : yeah . maybe it would be better for sheridan if i were dead . luis : hey . sheridan : hey . how are you doing ? luis : how 's it going , kirkman ? ofc . kirkman : good , good , pal . how are you doing ? luis : good , thanks . thanks again for helping us . sheridan : yeah , we appreciate it . ofc . kirkman : yeah , my pleasure , ok . luis : so , those are the glasses with the prints . ofc . kirkman : right . i 'll have the lab lift the prints , scan them into the computer . then you can watch the search for a match with the f.b.i . database on that computer . luis : great . sheridan : thank you . luis : thanks . coffee ? sheridan : no , no , i 'm far too nervous right now . i mean , what if what we find out about the wheelers is some horrible secret ? i mean , what if they 're using an alias to hide some secret ? what if finding the truth either hurts them or us ? luis : sheridan , like i said , the truth does n't hurt people , ok ? secrets do . and besides that , the wheelers seem like nice people , ok ? i doubt they 're hiding anything horrible . sheridan : yeah , they seem very nice . luis : not to mention , they 've done a lot for us ever since we met them . sheridan : i owe mr . wheeler my life . if he had n't gotten that antidote for mrs . wheeler and me when we were bitten by those snakes , i 'd be dead . luis : well , you know , not to mention they 've been like godparents to paloma ever since she was young . bad people do n't do that stuff . sheridan : no . no , they don't . luis : so worst - case scenario -- they 're good people caught up in a bad situation , ok ? and we 'll know what 's what soon as we get the fingerprints . sheridan : yeah . ofc . kirkman : the lab lifted the prints . they entered them into the database . luis : well , the search is on . [ sheridan sighs ] ethan : rebecca , look , just ease up a little bit on theresa , ok ? i mean , you have blamed her for everything -- short of global warming . rebecca : all i 'm saying is that theresa never does anything out of the goodness of her heart . ethan : well , it takes one to know one , does n't it ? gwen : oh , please , would you guys just stop sniping at each other ? she 's making a huge sacrifice so we can have a child of our own . rebecca : no , she 's not , gwen . no , i suspect that she is giving up one baby so that another one survives because she needs a child to trade for little ethan . no , she 's not making a sacrifice for you . no , she is being self - serving , as usual . gwen : no , theresa 's not the one being selfish . i am the one . i am forcing her to do this . what kind of person am i ? eve : oh , god , theresa , what have you done ? pilar : you may want to sit down , eve . eve : oh , god . theresa : just -- dr . russell , after i was implanted with ethan and gwen 's embryos , and after i took a pregnancy test that showed that i was pregnant , i -- i thought that i miscarried . but now that i look back , i do n't know if -- if maybe i was spotting . eve : well , of course it had to be the case . how could you find yourself pregnant with two babies right now ? theresa : see , after i lost ethan and gwen 's baby , i realized that i needed to get pregnant right away because i needed to have a baby to trade for little ethan . and since gwen does n't trust me -- pilar : with good reason . theresa : i needed to have a baby with ethan 's d.n.a . and the only way that i could get ethan 's d.n.a . was -- was to sleep with him . eve : oh , theresa , you didn't . pilar : oh , but she did . theresa : dr. russell , i do n't know which babies i 'm carrying . i do n't know if they 're both ethan and gwen 's . i do n't know if one of them is ethan and gwen 's and the other is mine and ethan 's . eve : oh , my god . gwen is going to go crazy when i tell her this ! theresa : no -- no , dr . russell , you ca n't ! on their election night , he 'll be in boston . so will he . he 'll be at party headquarters . he will , too . ohio 's the key state . he 'll be there . and all eyes are on d.c . so he 'll be there . `` global national `` from washington , starting tonight . ethan : happy now ? rebecca : love hurts . ooh -- especially when the cuffs are too tight . gwen : what if i am forcing theresa to sacrifice one of these babies to save the other just so she can get her son back ? as far as theresa 's concerned , she 's risking eternal damnation just to get her son back ? rebecca : works for me . ethan : all right , rebecca , enough . we understand that you do n't trust theresa 's motives for anything , ok ? rebecca : yeah , and neither should you ! look , she 's just doing this to get her son back ! although , i am convinced that she has her eyes on a much bigger prize . theresa : dr. russell , please stop ! please ! look , you ca n't tell gwen . you 're a doctor . you took an oath that whatever a patient tells you , you have to keep it private . eve : ok , you 're right , theresa . i am bound by doctor - patient privilege , but -- theresa : please , dr . russell , about these babies -- eve : yes , about these babies , theresa -- now , you say one of them could be yours with ethan because he slept with you ? theresa : that 's correct . eve : so ethan cheated on gwen ? how could he do such a thing ? pilar : ethan did n't set out to betray gwen , eve . my darling daughter drugged him . she wore a blond wig and gwen 's special perfume and tricked ethan into making love to her . eve : oh , theresa , tell me you didn't . theresa : dr. russell , gwen and rebecca took little ethan away from me . i needed to get pregnant again so i could have a baby to trade for my son . only now , i do n't know whose babies i 'm carrying . they both could be ethan and gwen 's , or one of them could be ethan and gwen 's and the other could be mine with ethan . so i need you to do this d.n.a . test . i need to know if one of these babies is mine . eve : why ? theresa : because if one of these babies is mine , and the other one is n't , when i have the procedure done , i need you to make sure that you save my baby with ethan . martin : katherine -- you ca n't think that your being dead is what 's best for sheridan -- or julian or anyone else , especially me . i love you . and without them realizing that you 're their mother , julian and sheridan love you , too . katherine : i know they have feelings for me . very strong feelings . and i feel about them more than i 've ever felt in my whole life . but the truth of who i really am is keeping us apart . it 's driving a wedge between us . martin : i understand your frustration because i 'm in the same boat . i almost wish that they 'd figure out who i really am so i would n't have to keep it a secret any longer . katherine : i wish the same thing . martin : well , maybe our wish will come true . maybe luis will discover our true identities . sheridan : i -- i ca n't watch this anymore . i mean , the tension of waiting to find out who the wheelers really are is killing me ! luis : well , sheridan , waiting is always the hard part . sheridan : yeah , waiting , wondering . luis : all right , i know something you can do if you want to help me , ok ? sheridan : of course i want to help . what can i do ? luis : all right , all right . ofc . kirkman : look , i 'll keep an eye on the search , luis . luis : thanks . look , i thought if we do n't come up with a match on the wheelers ' prints , there 's a program here that can help us . what it does is it reveals if a person has disguised themself . and if so , who they really are . sheridan : how does it work ? luis : well , it looks at similarities between bone structure and height and weight and compares them to photographs , archives , old and new . sheridan : that 's amazing . luis : yeah . i 've actually seen it -- sheridan : thank you . luis : look at pictures of two people who are completely different , only to find out that they were actually the same person . f.b.i . uses this all the time . sheridan : what do i do to get it started ? luis : all right , look , here -- just go online to `` harmony herald . `` see if you can find a picture of mrs . wheeler . i think i remember seeing one when she was arrested for shooting alistair . sheridan : yeah , i can do that . luis : ok . that 's why i love you . sheridan : hmm . luis : you 're amazing . sheridan : thank you . ofc . kirkman : i do n't believe this . luis : what , you got a match on the wheelers ' fingerprints ? ofc . kirkman : come see for yourselves . sheridan : oh , my god . luis : huh . well , i 'll be damned . ethan : rebecca , stop , ok ? questioning theresa 's motives is obviously upsetting your daughter , all right ? gwen : yeah , i 'd really appreciate it if you would just stop . look , it 's not a secret that theresa wants little ethan back and that we 've agreed to return him when she gives us our babies . but this was before eve told us about the situation . you know ? and -- and theresa would have agreed to the procedure right off the bat if all she wanted was to get little ethan back . but that 's not what happened . i mean , theresa agonized over this , and i do n't blame her . mother , she 's been carrying these babies inside of her for months , and i am sure she 's bonded with them on some level . even so , i mean , theresa decided to do what she needed to do to give us a child , and i 'm grateful to her for that . rebecca : gullible is more like it . look , theresa can never be trusted about anything , period ! gwen : i wish you would just stop , you know , and please let me focus on this child we 're going to have rather than focusing on some alleged something that theresa 's up to . rebecca : do n't say i did n't i warn you . gwen : you know , i wonder if eve has finished prepping theresa , because i 'd like to talk to her and thank her before -- ethan : ok , yeah . let 's -- let 's go . gwen : all right ? and i wish you would just let me be happy , ok ? ethan and i are going to have our own child , and it 's a child that theresa is giving us . rebecca : my poor gwennie . oh , i tried to warn her , but she just would n't listen . now , when theresa pulls off whatever it is she 's plotting , oh , my poor baby is going to be that much more hurt . eve : ok , theresa , i do n't really believe what i 'm hearing . so what you are saying is that you 're willing to have this procedure to save one of the babies . but if one of the babies is yours and ethan 's , you want to sacrifice gwen 's to save yours ? theresa : that 's correct . eve : my god , theresa , how cold - hearted can you be ? theresa : dr. russell , i do n't want to lose either one of these babies . but if i do n't act to save one of them , they both will die . and if there is a choice between them , i 'm going to choose to save my child . what mother would n't ? eve : this may be gwen 's last chance to have a child of her own . theresa : and i 'm happy to give her one if they 're both hers . but if they 're not , my baby comes first . pilar : i know . i 'm as appalled as you are . theresa : please , dr . russell -- please run the d.n.a . test so i can find out if one of these babies is mine . and if it is , i want gwen 's baby sacrificed to save it . sheridan : this ca n't be right , can it ? ofc . kirkman : look , i could n't believe it , either , but there it is . and there 's absolutely no matches for the wheelers ' fingerprints . luis : now , how 's that possible ? how is it they were never fingerprinted for anything ? ofc . kirkman : well , somewhere along the lines , they should have been , but evidently , they weren't . or they altered their fingerprints to hide their true identities . luis : all right , let 's move to plan b . sheridan : ok . i found a picture of mrs . wheeler when she was arrested , but i have n't found anything of mr . wheeler yet . luis : all right , good . that 's a start . hey , kirkman , go ahead and download this picture into the program . we can start searching for a match . ofc . kirkman : right , i 'm on it , luis . sheridan : ok , now luis said that mr . wheeler told him that he worked for my father back when my mother was alive . so i guess i should start looking in the mid 1970s . sheridan : oh , mother . the funeral was as big as diana 's . she was sent condolences from the two presidents , the royal family , even the vatican . mother , why did n't mrs . wheeler tell me all about you like she 'd promised ? i miss you so much . ofc . kirkman : luis , some more bad news . i ran the wheelers ' social security numbers , and there 's something not right about them . luis : yeah ? what do you mean ? ofc . kirkman : well , they 're all relatively new . it 's like they just popped out of thin air . luis : that 's interesting . ofc . kirkman : and there 's something else . you know , you run those social security numbers , you should come up with birth certificates , school information , credit history . you know , unless the wheelers just popped out of pods or they 're illiterate and do n't shop , they 're hiding their histories bigtime . luis : well , the wheelers definitely have a past with alistair , especially mrs . wheeler . in fact , she 's already tried to kill him twice . ofc . kirkman : yeah , well , i 'll bet my money on this photograph program coming through for us . luis : yeah , well , let 's hope so . if we can get a match , we could find out who mrs . wheeler really is . eve : sacrificing one baby to save another is one thing . deliberately destroying gwen 's baby to save yours is quite another . theresa : please do n't judge me . pilar : eve does n't have to judge you , mija . god will . theresa : dr. russell , can you please just run the d.n.a . test , so that dr . ames knows which baby to save ? eve : theresa , what you 're -- you 're doing -- this is unheard of ! this is not done ! now , when gwen finds out , she is going to go crazy . gwen : why am i going to go crazy , theresa ? i mean , what exactly are you planning to do now ? martin : i only wish that luis would discover the truth so we would n't be burdened hiding it any longer . but that 's just me being selfish , tired of living a lie . in my heart , i know that it would hurt our loved ones if they were to learn the truth . and i do n't want that . katherine : neither do i . martin : that 's why we have to leave harmony -- to protect our families from even more pain . katherine : you 're right , martin , and i know that . i just do n't want to leave my children again . martin : honey , we have to . and we have to leave quickly , before luis and sheridan uncover the truth . sheridan : i wonder if we 're ever going to find out who mr . and mrs . wheeler really are . i mean , what their connection is to harmony , to us , to julian and your mother ? luis : well , i 'm not giving up till i do find out who the wheelers really are . ofc . kirkman : hey , guys , look . the photo comparison 's found a match , i think . luis : my god , it did . sheridan : this is it . we 're finally going to find out who mr . wheeler is ! rebecca : so spill it , eve . what is theresa up to this time ? alistair : now , you will leave harmony , or so help me , i 'll rain down a firestorm that will frighten the devil himself ! sheridan : oh , luis , you 've got to figure out who the wheelers really are and fast . | theresa asks eve for a dna test of the twins , and when eve asks why , she is shocked to the core to hear the young woman say she wants to sacrifice gwen 's baby to save her own . pilar is also upset and stunned by her daughter 's plans . she does n't want her to have the procedure in the first place since it is against the church 's teachings , but this is even more evil . gwen is thrilled that theresa changed her mind , but rebecca is dubious about the reasons for the change . ethan wants to believe theresa is doing it out of the goodness of her heart , as does gwen . | <s>[INST] theresa : hey , mama . what are you doing here so early ? pilar : vine a chequearte . i 'm glad dr . russell postponed the procedure until today . hopefully , you 've had time to think -- reconsider your decision . theresa : i do n't want to argue , mama . pilar : theresa , i was up all night praying , hoping that you 'd see the light . remember what the church teaches us ? life is sacred . theresa : we went through this . pilar : the idea that you would choose your child over ethan and gwen 's -- it 's just horrible beyond belief . you do n't -- you do n't even know one of these babies is your child with ethan . theresa : i do n't , mama , you 're right . pilar : so you 'll abandon this unspeakable notion of playing god with the two lives inside you ? theresa : mama , if i do n't sacrifice one of these babies , they both die . pilar : that 's god 's choice , theresa , not yours . theresa : no , see , god has given medical science a way to save one of my children . pilar : mira , theresa , even if our holy mother appeared and said that she would make an exception this one time , she would never , ever condone your scheming to choose your baby with ethan instead of his with gwen 's . jamas , theresa ! theresa : mama , i do n't want to lose either one of these babies , but if i do n't act to save one of them , they both will die . and after everything gwen and rebecca have done to us -- they took my child away from me , mama . they took our jobs , they took our home . i am not about to lose another child to gwen . pilar : que dios nos ayude . theresa : mama , i 'm going to have dr . russell run these d.n.a . tests . i 'm going to find out which baby is mine with ethan , and that 's the one i 'm going to keep . gwen : honey , thank you so much for convincing theresa to have this procedure . eve : i 'm glad she 's decided to go through with it . gwen : i mean , it 's horrible it had to come to this . you know ? but if theresa had n't agreed to the procedure , then both of our babies would have died . and what did you say to her to change her mind ? katherine : sheridan is so disappointed in me . i promised to tell her about her mother , and then i broke my promise when alistair reminded us of the consequences . julian and sheridan would hate me for abandoning them as children and for deceiving them as adults . martin : luis and the rest of my family would hate me , too . and alistair would n't let it end there . he 'd make our life hell for the embarrassment your being alive would cause him . katherine : yeah , and people would think that i had left him to be with you , not that we left town to save our lives , convinced that our children would -- would escape his wrath . martin : yeah , well , i 've been up all night thinking about this . and i realize there 's only one thing for us to do . katherine -- katherine : what ? martin : we have to leave harmony . leave our loved ones for good -- their own good . or alistair will destroy them all . sheridan : luis -- luis ! luis : sheridan ? relax . sheridan : oh . luis : i 'm right here . sheridan : oh , thank god . when you were n't beside me , i -- i just -- i thought -- luis : thought what ? alistair was up to his old tricks again ? sheridan : yeah . luis : well , the fellow 's always up to something . after what we saw with the wheelers last night , i see he 's not the only one . sheridan : yeah , mrs . wheeler was going to tell me about my mother , but then wouldn't . luis : yeah , same thing with mr . wheeler about my father . they 're keeping secrets from us . sheridan : hey , what is that ? what are you doing ? luis : hmm . just making a chart of everything we know about the wheelers . i 'll figure out who they really are , what their connection is to us , to alistair , to harmony , your mother , my father . everything , if it 's the last thing i do .

[ katherine sighs ] katherine : leave harmony forever ? martin : the sooner , the better . katherine : oh , martin , i do n't know if i could do that . to never see julian and sheridan again ? i abandoned my children once already . martin : to protect them from alistair . katherine : but that 's not what happened . he took all his rage at me out on them . oh , martin , if you could have seen sheridan 's face -- the hope , the happiness when i was telling her stories about her mother when she was a little girl . how she suffered at alistair 's hands , how he forced her to abandon her children . i do n't know -- i just have to believe that sheridan would understand and that she would forgive me . martin : i wonder . katherine : well , even if she did n't , if i told her the truth , maybe it would help this awful guilt she bears because alistair told her that she was responsible for my death . it might help her heal and get free of all of alistair 's lies . martin : yes , but telling sheridan the truth might make her hate you for leaving her , letting her think that you were dead . my god , alistair could end up looking like a victim in all this . katherine : oh . i never considered that . martin : now , i 'm in the same boat with my family . i mean , would they really accept that i left them in poverty to save the life of one of the world 's wealthiest women ? think of the spin that alistair would put on that . he 'd claim that we were lovers in the beginning , and that we abandoned our families to live the good life in mexico . katherine : he 'd say anything to save face . martin : and to take away any hope of our loved ones ever forgiving us . damn alistair for putting us in this position , forcing us to leave harmony and our families a second time . sheridan : you really think that you can figure out who the wheelers really are ? luis : well , the clues are all there . i just have to connect them . well , look what i got so far -- all right , both mr . and mrs . wheeler used to live in harmony . mr. wheeler worked for alistair and she knew him socially . sheridan : and mr . wheeler told you that there were clues about your father 's disappearance at the gazebo . luis : that 's right . and alistair , coincidentally , had the gazebo bulldozed before i could investigate . sheridan : right . and then last night , mr . and mrs . wheeler said they were going to tell us something really important about my mother and your father , until we ran into my father and they clammed up . luis : yeah , well , on top of that , mrs . wheeler tried to kill alistair -- twice . sheridan : she said she was trying to protect me . luis : yeah . why , ok ? i mean , no offense , but you 've only known mrs . wheeler since the summer . sheridan : yeah , but i feel like i 've known her my entire life . luis : well , that 's the thing . i feel the exact same connection with mr . wheeler . and mama and julian said they felt the same connection . all right ? what are the odds that mr . and mrs . wheeler come from the same town and are staying at the same inn as paloma ? sheridan : a million to one . luis : yeah , only i do n't think it 's a coincidence . i think who they are is tied to where they come from . sheridan : yeah . the wheelers were about to tell us something . something big . and we 've got to find out what it is . luis : you 're right . and that 's why i think it 's time for me to take my investigation to the next level . sheridan : how ? luis : i took these glasses from the wheelers ' room . i 'm going to have a friend down at headquarters lift the fingerprints , run them through an f.b.i . database . then we 'll know who the wheelers really are . ethan : rebecca , please , do n't -- do n't start , all right ? the situation is difficult enough without your making gwen suspicious of theresa , ok ? rebecca : look , i 'm just reminding you both that theresa is a liar , a cheat , and a shameless opportunist who never does anything unless it 's in her own best interest . gwen : mother , normally i would agree with you . but theresa went against her religious beliefs to agree to sacrifice one baby to save the other . rebecca : but why , hmm ? what made her decide to do that ? gwen : not what , mother , who . rebecca : do n't confuse me with grammar . gwen : mother , it was ethan . he convinced theresa to have the procedure . rebecca : oh . it was ethan . hmm . whatever did you promise her to make her do what you wanted ? ethan : i did n't promise her anything , rebecca . rebecca : oh , ethan , come on . you must have offered her some kind of -- bone . ethan : ok , let it go , all right ? she agreed to have the procedure , period . gwen : he 's right , ok ? for once -- for once , theresa 's actually doing something to help us . and ethan and i are going to have our own biological child . rebecca : hmm . yeah , you 'd think so , would n't you ? ethan : what 's that supposed to mean ? rebecca : look , when you 're dealing with theresa , there is always some kind of catch . i just do n't know what it is yet . but i promise you , there is one . and if the two of you are not preparing for the worst , then you are just asking for trouble . eve : theresa , what do you mean , you want to know which one of the two babies is yours ? theresa : just that . i need to know which one of these babies i 'm carrying is mine . eve : theresa , neither one of these babies is yours . these are gwen and -- and ethan 's babies . remember ? you tricked the staff into impregnating you with gwen 's fertilized embryo . pilar : if only it were that simple . eve : oh , god . what is it , theresa ? what have you done this time ? martin : katherine , if you killed alistair , we would n't be free . you 'd still be in jail awaiting trial for murder . and , honey , i do n't want to lose you that way . katherine : yes , but if i 'd killed alistair , he would no longer be a menace to our children . martin : that 's why we have to leave harmony -- so alistair will leave our children alone . katherine : but he did n't last time . martin : this time 's different . our being here threatens alistair . if our true identities come out , the world will know why we left -- that alistair abused you , that he tried to kill me for protecting you . the scandal would send crane industries stock into a nosedive and weaken alistair 's power . but most of all , he 'd be humiliated for people to know that the almighty alistair crane lost his wife to one of them -- me . leaving harmony lets alistair save face , and that 's more important to him than hurting our children . katherine : but where would we go ? you know he 'll follow us . there 's no place he would n't find us . martin : i know . that 's the risky part . we 'll have to stay on the move and keep one step ahead , that 's all . katherine : that 's horrible . we 'll be people without a country , without a home . martin : i know , i know . but it 's the only way . if we stay here , we 're sitting ducks for alistair . sheridan : do n't people have to be criminals for the f.b.i . to have their fingerprints on file ? luis : not necessarily . a lot of times , people are fingerprinted for their jobs or identity protection , security reasons -- things like that . sheridan : hmm . so there 's a chance that mr . and mrs . wheeler 's fingerprints could be on file ? luis : oh , yeah . well , there 's a real good chance . in fact , with any luck , we should know who the wheelers really are before sunset . sheridan : luis , wait . what if there 's a reason why the wheelers are hiding their true identity ? i mean , what if finding out the truth hurts both them and -- and us ? luis : well , i do n't think anything bad comes from the truth . it 's the secrets that hurt . sheridan : i hope you 're right . luis : trust me . now , look , why do n't you go get showered and dressed while i call my buddy down at the station . sheridan : ok . ofc . kirkman : harmony p.d . , officer kirkman speaking . luis : kirkman , hey , it 's me , luis . hey , listen , i need a favor . ofc . kirkman : anything for you , pal . luis : great . look , i 've got a couple of drinking glasses with two sets of prints which i need lifted and then run through the f.b.i . database . think you can handle that ? ofc . kirkman : yeah , yeah , sure , luis . what 's this about ? luis : it 's -- it 's about finding out who the wheelers really are . ofc . kirkman : ok . well , i 'll be here ready to go . luis : all right , i 'll see you soon . thanks . luis : wheelers . well , let 's just hope we 're all still smiling when we find out who you really are , and what your connection is to me and sheridan . i mean why would n't they ? these are all md , ñ `` global national `` with kevin newman . the world at 6 : 30 . sooner . better . singer : you are my passion for life martin : there 's no chance to fix this , is there ? we damn our loved ones if we stay in harmony , and we damn any chance of reuniting with them if we leave . [ martin sighs ] katherine : we were naive to think we could make things right after all these years . martin : yeah , well , my family thinks that i walked out the door and i never looked back , and julian and sheridan think you 're dead . katherine : i remember seeing my final resting place for the first time -- the crane mausoleum -- talking with sheridan and seeing her pain , thinking that her birth led eventually to my death . martin : alistair 's cruelest lie of all . katherine : yeah . maybe it would be better for sheridan if i were dead . luis : hey . sheridan : hey . how are you doing ? luis : how 's it going , kirkman ? ofc . kirkman : good , good , pal . how are you doing ? luis : good , thanks . thanks again for helping us . sheridan : yeah , we appreciate it . ofc . kirkman : yeah , my pleasure , ok . luis : so , those are the glasses with the prints . ofc . kirkman : right . i 'll have the lab lift the prints , scan them into the computer . then you can watch the search for a match with the f.b.i . database on that computer . luis : great . sheridan : thank you . luis : thanks . coffee ? sheridan : no , no , i 'm far too nervous right now . i mean , what if what we find out about the wheelers is some horrible secret ? i mean , what if they 're using an alias to hide some secret ? what if finding the truth either hurts them or us ? luis : sheridan , like i said , the truth does n't hurt people , ok ? secrets do . and besides that , the wheelers seem like nice people , ok ? i doubt they 're hiding anything horrible . sheridan : yeah , they seem very nice . luis : not to mention , they 've done a lot for us ever since we met them . sheridan : i owe mr . wheeler my life . if he had n't gotten that antidote for mrs . wheeler and me when we were bitten by those snakes , i 'd be dead . luis : well , you know , not to mention they 've been like godparents to paloma ever since she was young . bad people do n't do that stuff . sheridan : no . no , they don't . luis : so worst - case scenario -- they 're good people caught up in a bad situation , ok ? and we 'll know what 's what soon as we get the fingerprints . sheridan : yeah . ofc . kirkman : the lab lifted the prints . they entered them into the database . luis : well , the search is on . [ sheridan sighs ] ethan : rebecca , look , just ease up a little bit on theresa , ok ? i mean , you have blamed her for everything -- short of global warming . rebecca : all i 'm saying is that theresa never does anything out of the goodness of her heart . ethan : well , it takes one to know one , does n't it ? gwen : oh , please , would you guys just stop sniping at each other ? she 's making a huge sacrifice so we can have a child of our own . rebecca : no , she 's not , gwen . no , i suspect that she is giving up one baby so that another one survives because she needs a child to trade for little ethan . no , she 's not making a sacrifice for you . no , she is being self - serving , as usual . gwen : no , theresa 's not the one being selfish . i am the one . i am forcing her to do this . what kind of person am i ? eve : oh , god , theresa , what have you done ? pilar : you may want to sit down , eve . eve : oh , god . theresa : just -- dr . russell , after i was implanted with ethan and gwen 's embryos , and after i took a pregnancy test that showed that i was pregnant , i -- i thought that i miscarried . but now that i look back , i do n't know if -- if maybe i was spotting . eve : well , of course it had to be the case . how could you find yourself pregnant with two babies right now ? theresa : see , after i lost ethan and gwen 's baby , i realized that i needed to get pregnant right away because i needed to have a baby to trade for little ethan . and since gwen does n't trust me -- pilar : with good reason . theresa : i needed to have a baby with ethan 's d.n.a . and the only way that i could get ethan 's d.n.a . was -- was to sleep with him . eve : oh , theresa , you didn't . pilar : oh , but she did . theresa : dr. russell , i do n't know which babies i 'm carrying . i do n't know if they 're both ethan and gwen 's . i do n't know if one of them is ethan and gwen 's and the other is mine and ethan 's . eve : oh , my god . gwen is going to go crazy when i tell her this ! theresa : no -- no , dr . russell , you ca n't ! on their election night , he 'll be in boston . so will he . he 'll be at party headquarters . he will , too . ohio 's the key state . he 'll be there . and all eyes are on d.c . so he 'll be there . `` global national `` from washington , starting tonight . ethan : happy now ? rebecca : love hurts . ooh -- especially when the cuffs are too tight . gwen : what if i am forcing theresa to sacrifice one of these babies to save the other just so she can get her son back ? as far as theresa 's concerned , she 's risking eternal damnation just to get her son back ? rebecca : works for me . ethan : all right , rebecca , enough . we understand that you do n't trust theresa 's motives for anything , ok ? rebecca : yeah , and neither should you ! look , she 's just doing this to get her son back ! although , i am convinced that she has her eyes on a much bigger prize . theresa : dr. russell , please stop ! please ! look , you ca n't tell gwen . you 're a doctor . you took an oath that whatever a patient tells you , you have to keep it private . eve : ok , you 're right , theresa . i am bound by doctor - patient privilege , but -- theresa : please , dr . russell , about these babies -- eve : yes , about these babies , theresa -- now , you say one of them could be yours with ethan because he slept with you ? theresa : that 's correct . eve : so ethan cheated on gwen ? how could he do such a thing ? pilar : ethan did n't set out to betray gwen , eve . my darling daughter drugged him . she wore a blond wig and gwen 's special perfume and tricked ethan into making love to her . eve : oh , theresa , tell me you didn't . theresa : dr. russell , gwen and rebecca took little ethan away from me . i needed to get pregnant again so i could have a baby to trade for my son . only now , i do n't know whose babies i 'm carrying . they both could be ethan and gwen 's , or one of them could be ethan and gwen 's and the other could be mine with ethan . so i need you to do this d.n.a . test . i need to know if one of these babies is mine . eve : why ? theresa : because if one of these babies is mine , and the other one is n't , when i have the procedure done , i need you to make sure that you save my baby with ethan . martin : katherine -- you ca n't think that your being dead is what 's best for sheridan -- or julian or anyone else , especially me . i love you . and without them realizing that you 're their mother , julian and sheridan love you , too . katherine : i know they have feelings for me . very strong feelings . and i feel about them more than i 've ever felt in my whole life . but the truth of who i really am is keeping us apart . it 's driving a wedge between us . martin : i understand your frustration because i 'm in the same boat . i almost wish that they 'd figure out who i really am so i would n't have to keep it a secret any longer . katherine : i wish the same thing . martin : well , maybe our wish will come true . maybe luis will discover our true identities . sheridan : i -- i ca n't watch this anymore . i mean , the tension of waiting to find out who the wheelers really are is killing me ! luis : well , sheridan , waiting is always the hard part . sheridan : yeah , waiting , wondering . luis : all right , i know something you can do if you want to help me , ok ? sheridan : of course i want to help . what can i do ? luis : all right , all right . ofc . kirkman : look , i 'll keep an eye on the search , luis . luis : thanks . look , i thought if we do n't come up with a match on the wheelers ' prints , there 's a program here that can help us . what it does is it reveals if a person has disguised themself . and if so , who they really are . sheridan : how does it work ? luis : well , it looks at similarities between bone structure and height and weight and compares them to photographs , archives , old and new . sheridan : that 's amazing . luis : yeah . i 've actually seen it -- sheridan : thank you . luis : look at pictures of two people who are completely different , only to find out that they were actually the same person . f.b.i . uses this all the time . sheridan : what do i do to get it started ? luis : all right , look , here -- just go online to `` harmony herald . `` see if you can find a picture of mrs . wheeler . i think i remember seeing one when she was arrested for shooting alistair . sheridan : yeah , i can do that . luis : ok . that 's why i love you . sheridan : hmm . luis : you 're amazing . sheridan : thank you . ofc . kirkman : i do n't believe this . luis : what , you got a match on the wheelers ' fingerprints ? ofc . kirkman : come see for yourselves . sheridan : oh , my god . luis : huh . well , i 'll be damned . ethan : rebecca , stop , ok ? questioning theresa 's motives is obviously upsetting your daughter , all right ? gwen : yeah , i 'd really appreciate it if you would just stop . look , it 's not a secret that theresa wants little ethan back and that we 've agreed to return him when she gives us our babies . but this was before eve told us about the situation . you know ? and -- and theresa would have agreed to the procedure right off the bat if all she wanted was to get little ethan back . but that 's not what happened . i mean , theresa agonized over this , and i do n't blame her . mother , she 's been carrying these babies inside of her for months , and i am sure she 's bonded with them on some level . even so , i mean , theresa decided to do what she needed to do to give us a child , and i 'm grateful to her for that . rebecca : gullible is more like it . look , theresa can never be trusted about anything , period ! gwen : i wish you would just stop , you know , and please let me focus on this child we 're going to have rather than focusing on some alleged something that theresa 's up to . rebecca : do n't say i did n't i warn you . gwen : you know , i wonder if eve has finished prepping theresa , because i 'd like to talk to her and thank her before -- ethan : ok , yeah . let 's -- let 's go . gwen : all right ? and i wish you would just let me be happy , ok ? ethan and i are going to have our own child , and it 's a child that theresa is giving us . rebecca : my poor gwennie . oh , i tried to warn her , but she just would n't listen . now , when theresa pulls off whatever it is she 's plotting , oh , my poor baby is going to be that much more hurt . eve : ok , theresa , i do n't really believe what i 'm hearing . so what you are saying is that you 're willing to have this procedure to save one of the babies . but if one of the babies is yours and ethan 's , you want to sacrifice gwen 's to save yours ? theresa : that 's correct . eve : my god , theresa , how cold - hearted can you be ? theresa : dr. russell , i do n't want to lose either one of these babies . but if i do n't act to save one of them , they both will die . and if there is a choice between them , i 'm going to choose to save my child . what mother would n't ? eve : this may be gwen 's last chance to have a child of her own . theresa : and i 'm happy to give her one if they 're both hers . but if they 're not , my baby comes first . pilar : i know . i 'm as appalled as you are . theresa : please , dr . russell -- please run the d.n.a . test so i can find out if one of these babies is mine . and if it is , i want gwen 's baby sacrificed to save it . sheridan : this ca n't be right , can it ? ofc . kirkman : look , i could n't believe it , either , but there it is . and there 's absolutely no matches for the wheelers ' fingerprints . luis : now , how 's that possible ? how is it they were never fingerprinted for anything ? ofc . kirkman : well , somewhere along the lines , they should have been , but evidently , they weren't . or they altered their fingerprints to hide their true identities . luis : all right , let 's move to plan b . sheridan : ok . i found a picture of mrs . wheeler when she was arrested , but i have n't found anything of mr . wheeler yet . luis : all right , good . that 's a start . hey , kirkman , go ahead and download this picture into the program . we can start searching for a match . ofc . kirkman : right , i 'm on it , luis . sheridan : ok , now luis said that mr . wheeler told him that he worked for my father back when my mother was alive . so i guess i should start looking in the mid 1970s . sheridan : oh , mother . the funeral was as big as diana 's . she was sent condolences from the two presidents , the royal family , even the vatican . mother , why did n't mrs . wheeler tell me all about you like she 'd promised ? i miss you so much . ofc . kirkman : luis , some more bad news . i ran the wheelers ' social security numbers , and there 's something not right about them . luis : yeah ? what do you mean ? ofc . kirkman : well , they 're all relatively new . it 's like they just popped out of thin air . luis : that 's interesting . ofc . kirkman : and there 's something else . you know , you run those social security numbers , you should come up with birth certificates , school information , credit history . you know , unless the wheelers just popped out of pods or they 're illiterate and do n't shop , they 're hiding their histories bigtime . luis : well , the wheelers definitely have a past with alistair , especially mrs . wheeler . in fact , she 's already tried to kill him twice . ofc . kirkman : yeah , well , i 'll bet my money on this photograph program coming through for us . luis : yeah , well , let 's hope so . if we can get a match , we could find out who mrs . wheeler really is . eve : sacrificing one baby to save another is one thing . deliberately destroying gwen 's baby to save yours is quite another . theresa : please do n't judge me . pilar : eve does n't have to judge you , mija . god will . theresa : dr. russell , can you please just run the d.n.a . test , so that dr . ames knows which baby to save ? eve : theresa , what you 're -- you 're doing -- this is unheard of ! this is not done ! now , when gwen finds out , she is going to go crazy . gwen : why am i going to go crazy , theresa ? i mean , what exactly are you planning to do now ? martin : i only wish that luis would discover the truth so we would n't be burdened hiding it any longer . but that 's just me being selfish , tired of living a lie . in my heart , i know that it would hurt our loved ones if they were to learn the truth . and i do n't want that . katherine : neither do i . martin : that 's why we have to leave harmony -- to protect our families from even more pain . katherine : you 're right , martin , and i know that . i just do n't want to leave my children again . martin : honey , we have to . and we have to leave quickly , before luis and sheridan uncover the truth . sheridan : i wonder if we 're ever going to find out who mr . and mrs . wheeler really are . i mean , what their connection is to harmony , to us , to julian and your mother ? luis : well , i 'm not giving up till i do find out who the wheelers really are . ofc . kirkman : hey , guys , look . the photo comparison 's found a match , i think . luis : my god , it did . sheridan : this is it . we 're finally going to find out who mr . wheeler is ! rebecca : so spill it , eve . what is theresa up to this time ? alistair : now , you will leave harmony , or so help me , i 'll rain down a firestorm that will frighten the devil himself ! sheridan : oh , luis , you 've got to figure out who the wheelers really are and fast .Summarize.[/INST]theresa asks eve for a dna test of the twins , and when eve asks why , she is shocked to the core to hear the young woman say she wants to sacrifice gwen 's baby to save her own . pilar is also upset and stunned by her daughter 's plans . she does n't want her to have the procedure in the first place since it is against the church 's teachings , but this is even more evil . gwen is thrilled that theresa changed her mind , but rebecca is dubious about the reasons for the change . ethan wants to believe theresa is doing it out of the goodness of her heart , as does gwen .</s> | 15,796 |

jonathan : nothing . i showed cassie the whole tape . reva : well , why did n't you just give her the whole thing to begin ... before putting her through hell ? jonathan : because i ... i wanted to see if you would believe me without proof . josh : yeah . you also wanted to see cassie suffer , right ? jonathan : yeah , i guess i did . she lured me up into her room and then , as far as i 'm concerned , she 's getting what she deserves right now . josh : and still she 's protecting you ! reva : what do you mean ? josh : i talked to cassie . i tried to convince her to tell edmund the truth . everything . to take away the power that this guy has over her . reva : this is n't about jonathan 's power . oh , my god . you told cassie , hoping that she would tell edmund and he 'd go crazy , right ?

i mean , are you really so afraid of losing me that you would risk my own son ? josh : everything i have done since he arrived in town is because i love you . it 's because i do n't want to see you get hurt . reva : i know you keep saying that , but i think you 're working against me . and you , i never know what you 're going to do next , and you know what ? i ca n't do this . i really can't . i ca n't do it anymore . not tonight . so , here . you take that . josh : what the hell are you doing ? reva : you take this . and go for it . you know what ? go for it . you 're armed , you 're armed . go on . beat the crap out of each other ! i do n't care . get each other down on the ground , pound on each other , but leave me the hell out of it . i ca n't take this . jonathan : your move , joshua .

[ laughing ] wyatt : i still ca n't believe she 's the same woman who would have done anything to get steffy to marry me . eric : quinn realizes how desperate and reckless she was . wyatt : she 's been like that my entire life , eric . until ... until you . you transformed her , and -- and you opened up my eyes , too . i realized integrity is so important in a relationship . and i also realized ... i want somebody who believes in me as completely as you and my mom believe in each other . quinn : your father will never know what happened between us . the flirting , the steam room , what happened in san francisco last night ... i need to have your word , ridge . promise me . ridge : what we shared ... that kiss ... that 's between us . no one else . quinn : you promise ? ridge : it 's our secret . steffy : i understand what you want . i just do n't know where this is coming from . why ending my marriage is so urgent . liam : because they 're getting to you . steffy : who , liam ? who ? ! my grandfather ? wyatt ? quinn ? they 're not ! liam : they are , and i 'm tired of watching it happen . steffy : [ scoffs ] [ cell phone rings ] steffy : it 's wyatt . hi . wyatt : hey , um ... i need to see you . steffy : it is work - related ? wyatt : no . no , but , uh ... but it 's important . steffy : look , the situation 's already awkward enough . let 's not make this worse , okay ? wyatt : and i appreciate that . but i 'm not taking no for an answer , so ... steffy : okay , are you here at the office , or are you at granddad 's ? wyatt : uh , our place . steffy : the beach . wyatt : yeah . like i said , it 's important , so ... please ? steffy : i 'm on my way . liam : so you 're going . steffy : he says it 's important . liam : yeah ? for who ? steffy : yeah . liam : you 're honoring a marriage that never should have happened . you 're legitimizing everything quinn did to us . steffy : no , i 'm not . i want a future with you . liam : steffy , even in the middle of all of this , you answered that phone because the caller i.d . said `` wyatt . `` and now you 're about to drop everything you 're doing and go see him . i know how much you love your grandfather , i know what the company means to you , but we have waited long enough , and our relationship has to come first . end the marriage . get that god - forsaken tattoo off your finger , or what 's left of it , and then come home . i 'm gon na be at the house tonight . i 'm gon na make us dinner . use this time to go tell wyatt no more , and then i 'll see you tonight . steffy : you know what , i can tell wyatt to just come here and tell me if you 're that worried about it . liam : no , no , no , you should go . you absolutely should go -- tell him it 's over , set him straight , and then come home to me . steffy : i understand you 're upset about my grandfather and the house . i 'm surprised , too , but honestly , you have nothing to worry about , okay ? nothing to worry about . i 'm gon na talk to wyatt and everything 's gon na be fine . promise you .

quinn : well , i already told you on the phone , the symposium was a big success . i do n't know what more you want me to say . ridge and i are never gon na be best friends . eric : why did you take separate flights home ? did something happen ? did he -- did ridge do something to you ? quinn : no . eric : good . i 'm glad to hear that . look , all i want is for my wife and my son to have a decent relationship . nothing i like better in the world than to know that you were getting closer . steffy : wyatt , i know this is a difficult time for you . we 've had some great memories here . but i 'm not sure dredging them all up is a good idea . you asked me here to talk , so i think we should do that . wyatt : you 're right . it has been difficult for both of us . but i know how we can move on from this , steffy . we have to -- we have to stop listening to the clock that is counting down the end of the days of our marriage and focus on what we 've done together . what we 've learned , what we 've accomplished together as a couple . forget about the divorce and just -- just think about what we mean to each other . eric : i think we should celebrate . i know it 's a little early , but ... the symposium was a big success , and you and ridge were a big hit . quinn : i 'm not really in a martini mood , honey . eric : no , no , not martinis , darling . i have a surprise for you . quinn : tequila ?

[ sighs ] i did n't have the strength to fight demons on my own . brady : yeah . i suppose stefano ... would n't appeal to your better angels , kristen . kristen : yeah , but you do . you do , brady . and knowing that we could be together and that we could rekindle the love we once had ... that is all i want . that is all i need . so i need to know : is this a fool 's errand ? or can we really ... actually be together ? brady : let me tell you something . [ exhales ] see , over the years , i 've tried to convince myself that what we had was a -- was a lie . that i did n't love you . i tried to convince myself of that , but the truth if it was that i , uh ... once in a while ... i would think about what might have been . you know , that fantasy of you and me and what we had . it would make me smile . it really would . but then , you see , i had to push those feelings down . i had to ... i had to chastise myself because -- kristen : because i 'd hurt you ... and the people that you love . brady : that 's right . but i 'm looking at you right now , and let me tell you , i -- i -- i 'm sick of fighting that feeling . and all i want right now is you . kristen : [ exhales ] [ intense music ] sami : so we think this xander guy ... shot you on kristen 's behalf . john : it 's certainly possible . marlena : how do they even know each other ? sami : weekly meetings of psycho killers anonymous . john : those kinda people always run in the same circles . xander 's always been known as a gun for hire . maybe kristen just simply enlisted his services . sami : you know , the whole time that kristen 's guys were holding me , i did n't see any sign of him . john : last time he was in town , he brought ... theresa back from mexico . he was trying to get in good with his uncle . apparently , he thought vic was gon na make him ceo of titan . when that did n't happen , he just hightailed it outta town . maybe that 's when he hooked up with kristen . sami : great . basically that means we have two homicidal maniacs to deal with . eric : he knows ... that you ... nicole : that i killed deimos . yes . eric : but how ? xander : i 'll be happy to explain . you see ... before i left salem last summer , i had a quick gander in my uncle 's safe . i thought maybe he 'd have an extra gold brick or two lying around , but ... i found something much more valuable instead . a recording of nicole confessing to murder . eric : a recording that brady used to blackmail her into leaving me ? now you 're using it against her ? xander : well , after i left salem , i tracked nicole down and confronted her with her dirty little secret . eric : and what are you hoping to get out of it , money ? nicole : no . eric : [ softly ] then what ? xander : her lovely hand in marriage . eric : nicole would never marry you . xander : oh ... she already did . with uncontrolled valerie : that 's just eli . he 's a loyal friend . and i - i feel ... you know , maybe eli thinks he owes sheila for something that happened a long time ago . abe : well , maybe you should talk to him . make sure he does n't get sucked back into her web . valerie : well , he 's smarter than that . he can take care of himself . abe : i do n't know . he 's in a vulnerable place right now . valerie : well , that 's because of your daughter . lani : [ scoffs ] what the hell , eli ? why would you share something so personal with her ? eli : i told you , sheila and i are old friends . we grew up in baltimore together . sheila : yep . used to run around the playground together . so i know what a good man he is , and i do n't like the way you treated him . lani : excuse me ? eli : sheila , maybe you can give us a few minutes here ? sheila : no . someone needs to set this chick straight . lani : how is this any of your business ? sheila : eli just told you . [ laughs ] he and i are good friends . you know what ? more than that . we 're family . he laid out everything for me . so what makes you think you 're so much better than him ? eli : i never said that . lani : and i did n't either . sheila : then why else would you shut him down the way you did , especially when the poor man opened up his heart to you ? any woman can see he 's a good catch . he 's smart , successful , a true gentleman . he 's even funny -- well , sometimes -- but definitely easy on the eyes . but i guess that was n't good enough for you . and you still tossed him to the side . eli : sheila . that 'll be enough , thank you . if you would just -- sheila : okay , whatever . i just wanted miss price here to know what a huge mistake she 's making . lani : you have no idea what you 're talking about . you do n't know what eli and i have been through . sheila : oh , eli told me about the baby . [ small laugh ] i 'm truly sorry for that , but it 's still no excuse how you treated him . lani : you know what ? just mind your own damn business . eli : lani , wait -- lani : no . i have work to do . marlena : you think xander is still in salem ? john : uh ... i do n't know . i 'll call hope . i 'll ask her to be on the lookout just in case . marlena : so that 's a yes . john : no , honestly , i do n't see why he 'd stick around here . i mean , for all he knew , the deed was done . marlena : maybe if he 's been working with kristen , maybe they 're hiding out together . john : you said you thought that she was staying with stefan ? sami : but there 's plenty of places to hide at the mansion . he could be there too . but now stefan knows i 'm on to him , so there 's no way he did n't kick them out . it 'd be too risky to let them stay . marlena : so with no place left to hide , maybe she 's hightailed it out of town . john : yeah . we got lucky . maybe they 're both long gone . marlena : wherever they are , i 'm sure they 're creating chaos . eric : i ca n't believe this . xander forced you to marry him ? nicole : well , it was either that or go to prison for killing deimos . i was ready to take responsibility for what i did , but not if it meant leaving holly . xander : mm . so noble , this one , is n't she ? but if you must know , nicole has refused to consummate our marriage ... so far . and theresa 's false accusations notwithstanding , i would never force a woman to have sex with me . eric : what a guy . xander : too bad , though . i keep telling nicole that we could have something special , if only she could let go of the past -- ie , you . i knew as long as you were still walking the earth , she 'd never be able to love me . so that left me no choice . i had to kill you . nicole : what ? xander : oh , i took my best shot ... literally . but , as luck would have it , at the last possible second , you moved . so i shot your mother instead . 90 % of women brady : when did you get this ? kristen : mm ... after my swan dive in italy . it 's meant to signify my rebirth spiritually and physically .

[ both laugh ] kristen : not quite . brady : no ? kristen : just , um ... being here with you right now , it 's just ... i feel like i 've woken up from this terrible nightmare . i mean , the last few years have been so unbearable . brady : the recovery -- that must have been ... painful for you , huh ? kristen : not as painful as knowing that i might have lost you . or that you hate me . i was so lonely . brady : you were alone ? i mean , were you ... kristen : [ laughs ] what , you think i was with another man ? brady : no , no , no , i did n't mean that . i did n't mean that , i just ... i was thinking you were actually with -- with ej . or was ... was that a lie ? [ edgy music ] john : all right . i spoke to hope , got her up to speed on the fact that xander was the one who shot doc . sami : oh , fantastic . what 's she gon na do about it ? john : she 's gon na put out an apb ... and unfortunately , it only covers salem . but i also spoke to victor . he has n't heard from xander since he left town . sami : well , as far as i know , kristen and xander could be anywhere by now . john : yeah . well , there 's one thing i know about fugitives are they ... screw up . they 're gon na make one mistake , and when they do , i 'm gon na be right there to bring 'em to justice . sami : i 'm not exactly super - concerned about justice right now . marlena : but ej ? sami : kristen 's my only hope , mom . if he 's alive , if he 's out there , she 's the only one who knows where he is . john : yeah , samantha ...

[ ahem ] after my fall , i ... i woke up in that convent . and staying with the nuns , they nearly convinced me to make amends with my enemies . brady : till that image of stefano changed your mind . kristen : yeah . [ sighs ] i did n't have the strength to fight demons on my own . brady : yeah . i suppose stefano ... would n't appeal to your better angels , kristen . kristen : yeah , but you do . you do , brady . and knowing that we could be together and that we could rekindle the love we once had ... that is all i want . that is all i need . so i need to know : is this a fool 's errand ? or can we really ... actually be together ? brady : let me tell you something . [ exhales ] see , over the years , i 've tried to convince myself that what we had was a -- was a lie . that i did n't love you . i tried to convince myself of that , but the truth if it was that i , uh ... once in a while ... i would think about what might have been . you know , that fantasy of you and me and what we had . it would make me smile . it really would . but then , you see , i had to push those feelings down . i had to ... i had to chastise myself because -- kristen : because i 'd hurt you ... and the people that you love . brady : that 's right . but i 'm looking at you right now , and let me tell you , i -- i -- i 'm sick of fighting that feeling . and all i want right now is you . kristen : [ exhales ] [ intense music ] sami : so we think this xander guy ... shot you on kristen 's behalf . john : it 's certainly possible . marlena : how do they even know each other ? sami : weekly meetings of psycho killers anonymous . john : those kinda people always run in the same circles . xander 's always been known as a gun for hire . maybe kristen just simply enlisted his services . sami : you know , the whole time that kristen 's guys were holding me , i did n't see any sign of him . john : last time he was in town , he brought ... theresa back from mexico . he was trying to get in good with his uncle . apparently , he thought vic was gon na make him ceo of titan . when that did n't happen , he just hightailed it outta town . maybe that 's when he hooked up with kristen . sami : great . basically that means we have two homicidal maniacs to deal with . eric : he knows ... that you ... nicole : that i killed deimos . yes . eric : but how ? xander : i 'll be happy to explain . you see ... before i left salem last summer , i had a quick gander in my uncle 's safe . i thought maybe he 'd have an extra gold brick or two lying around , but ... i found something much more valuable instead . a recording of nicole confessing to murder . eric : a recording that brady used to blackmail her into leaving me ? now you 're using it against her ? xander : well , after i left salem , i tracked nicole down and confronted her with her dirty little secret . eric : and what are you hoping to get out of it , money ? nicole : no . eric : [ softly ] then what ? xander : her lovely hand in marriage . eric : nicole would never marry you . xander : oh ... she already did . with uncontrolled valerie : that 's just eli . he 's a loyal friend . and i - i feel ... you know , maybe eli thinks he owes sheila for something that happened a long time ago . abe : well , maybe you should talk to him . make sure he does n't get sucked back into her web . valerie : well , he 's smarter than that . he can take care of himself . abe : i do n't know . he 's in a vulnerable place right now . valerie : well , that 's because of your daughter . lani : [ scoffs ] what the hell , eli ? why would you share something so personal with her ? eli : i told you , sheila and i are old friends . we grew up in baltimore together . sheila : yep . used to run around the playground together . so i know what a good man he is , and i do n't like the way you treated him . lani : excuse me ? eli : sheila , maybe you can give us a few minutes here ? sheila : no . someone needs to set this chick straight . lani : how is this any of your business ? sheila : eli just told you . [ laughs ] he and i are good friends . you know what ? more than that . we 're family . he laid out everything for me . so what makes you think you 're so much better than him ? eli : i never said that . lani : and i did n't either . sheila : then why else would you shut him down the way you did , especially when the poor man opened up his heart to you ? any woman can see he 's a good catch . he 's smart , successful , a true gentleman . he 's even funny -- well , sometimes -- but definitely easy on the eyes . but i guess that was n't good enough for you . and you still tossed him to the side . eli : sheila . that 'll be enough , thank you . if you would just -- sheila : okay , whatever . i just wanted miss price here to know what a huge mistake she 's making . lani : you have no idea what you 're talking about . you do n't know what eli and i have been through . sheila : oh , eli told me about the baby . [ small laugh ] i 'm truly sorry for that , but it 's still no excuse how you treated him . lani : you know what ? just mind your own damn business . eli : lani , wait -- lani : no . i have work to do . marlena : you think xander is still in salem ? john : uh ... i do n't know . i 'll call hope . i 'll ask her to be on the lookout just in case . marlena : so that 's a yes . john : no , honestly , i do n't see why he 'd stick around here . i mean , for all he knew , the deed was done . marlena : maybe if he 's been working with kristen , maybe they 're hiding out together . john : you said you thought that she was staying with stefan ? sami : but there 's plenty of places to hide at the mansion . he could be there too . but now stefan knows i 'm on to him , so there 's no way he did n't kick them out . it 'd be too risky to let them stay . marlena : so with no place left to hide , maybe she 's hightailed it out of town . john : yeah . we got lucky . maybe they 're both long gone . marlena : wherever they are , i 'm sure they 're creating chaos . eric : i ca n't believe this . xander forced you to marry him ? nicole : well , it was either that or go to prison for killing deimos . i was ready to take responsibility for what i did , but not if it meant leaving holly . xander : mm . so noble , this one , is n't she ? but if you must know , nicole has refused to consummate our marriage ... so far . and theresa 's false accusations notwithstanding , i would never force a woman to have sex with me . eric : what a guy . xander : too bad , though . i keep telling nicole that we could have something special , if only she could let go of the past -- ie , you . i knew as long as you were still walking the earth , she 'd never be able to love me . so that left me no choice . i had to kill you . nicole : what ? xander : oh , i took my best shot ... literally . but , as luck would have it , at the last possible second , you moved . so i shot your mother instead . 90 % of women brady : when did you get this ? kristen : mm ... after my swan dive in italy . it 's meant to signify my rebirth spiritually and physically . [ small laugh ] brady : i think it 's beautiful . kristen : now that we 're together ... i 'm kind of thinking i might have been a little too premature ... with the tattoo . brady : oh , yeah ? maybe you should get a , uh , a big heart right here with brady in the middle of it . kristen : [ giggling ] brady : would you prefer that ? [ both laugh ] kristen : not quite . brady : no ? kristen : just , um ... being here with you right now , it 's just ... i feel like i 've woken up from this terrible nightmare . i mean , the last few years have been so unbearable . brady : the recovery -- that must have been ... painful for you , huh ? kristen : not as painful as knowing that i might have lost you . or that you hate me . i was so lonely . brady : you were alone ? i mean , were you ... kristen : [ laughs ] what , you think i was with another man ? brady : no , no , no , i did n't mean that . i did n't mean that , i just ... i was thinking you were actually with -- with ej . or was ... was that a lie ? [ edgy music ] john : all right . i spoke to hope , got her up to speed on the fact that xander was the one who shot doc . sami : oh , fantastic . what 's she gon na do about it ? john : she 's gon na put out an apb ... and unfortunately , it only covers salem . but i also spoke to victor . he has n't heard from xander since he left town . sami : well , as far as i know , kristen and xander could be anywhere by now . john : yeah . well , there 's one thing i know about fugitives are they ... screw up . they 're gon na make one mistake , and when they do , i 'm gon na be right there to bring 'em to justice . sami : i 'm not exactly super - concerned about justice right now . marlena : but ej ? sami : kristen 's my only hope , mom . if he 's alive , if he 's out there , she 's the only one who knows where he is . john : yeah , samantha ... [ rubbing hands ] we both know how much you wan na believe that 's true , but ... please , be careful about getting your hopes up , okay ? sami : thank you , john . john : yeah . sami : i have been disappointed more times than i can count , but i am not giving up . this is too important , and right now , my gut is telling me ... that it 's gon na be different this time . [ edgy music ] nicole : you tried to kill eric ? eric : you son of a bitch ! xander : it was the only surefire way to stop you pining for him . nicole : when was this ? xander : remember that business trip i took back in august ? well , i could n't miss salem 's social event of the season -- john and marlena 's wedding . i had a clear shot at eric until he decided to tackle his gun - toting sister . eric : sami . nicole : sami had a gun too ? xander : it 's a long story . eric : you let sami think she shot her own mother ! xander : and now she 'll know the truth and be relieved of the crippling guilt she must feel . honestly , i 'm just glad to have it all out in the open . if there 's one thing i hate , it 's keeping secrets from my wife . eric : you 're sick ! nicole : [ gasps ] [ dramatic chords ] you are gon na spend the rest of your life behind bars . xander : i would n't be too sure about that , mate . it 's time to finish the job .

[ exhales sharply ] so , what is it ? why was my father killed ? [ scene_break ] franco : i had every intention of , uh , naming names to nathan . hey , that 's -- that 's alliteration . nina : quit stalling . franco : okay , look , when push came to shove , i thought better of it . nina : right , because opening your mouth would 've meant turning me in . franco : really ? we 're gon na do this again ? nina : well , i mean , i - i - i do n't know what else to think because when -- when j. told me that you were ready to name names , i thought that that meant , you know , me . franco : no , okay ? no . a thousand nos . nina , for the last time , i believe in you . nina : okay . so ... what ? when you said that you were ready to name silas ' killer , that meant who ? franco : ava killed silas .

[ scene_break ] morgan : does it matter why ? kiki : yeah . if , god forbid , someone were to kill your father , would n't you want to know the reason ? morgan : yeah , sure , but , you know , that 's what the cops are for . let them figure it out . stop making yourself sick over it . kiki : there has to be a reason . morgan : no , there does n't . it 's franco , okay ? people have been convicted with less . he had the murder weapon on him . okay ? and is n't all that -- all that matters , that he goes away ? kiki : no , that 's not all that matters . my father is dead , and i do n't know why . all i have left are questions . and he said that he wanted to see me as soon as possible , that it was important . so , what was it ? what did my father want to tell me ? [ scene_break ] nina : ava would n't kill silas . she loved him . franco : once upon a time , maybe , but ... she 'd moved on . ava was with , uh ... morgan corinthos . nina : her daughter 's boyfriend ? franco : and silas knew . and he was gon na tell kiki the truth , and he was also gon na tell everybody that denise and ava were the same person . and ava would not only have lost kiki forever , but she would 've been in prison for the rest of her viable years and then some . nina : she 's a murdering skank . she 's a murdering skank ! sorry , heidi . um ... ava denise demuccio jerome needs to pay for what she did . she needs to pay . why did you not tell j. last night ? franco : because she stopped me . nina : how ? what power does ava jerome have over you now ? franco : your freedom . ava has a photo of you with a knife in your hand over silas ' body at the scene of the crime . [ scene_break ] ava : i 'm not doing this . i 'm not having a conversation with -- with -- silas : oh , i 'm sorry . am -- am i bothering you ? do i make you feel uncomfortable ? because , you know , last time i checked , you were doing just fine . let me refresh your memory . we , uh -- we were in my apartment , and , oh , yeah , i was lying on the ground with a knife in my back , my life 's blood literally pumping out of me . ava : you do n't have to tell me . silas : but you , ava , you were so calm and cool and collected . you even had the presence of mind to take out your cell phone and take a picture of nina holding the knife in her hand . ava : it was a reflex . silas : of course , it was . i mean , no one has an instinct for self - preservation quite like you do . how great is it that you can use it against franco , you know ? one crummy crime - scene photo , and you 've got him dancing around like a marionette . ava : i have no choice , silas . it 's that or let him expose me , and everything that you did for me , it 'll be for nothing . silas : yeah , right . i mean , surprisingly , i 'm okay with that right now . ava : i had to find a way to stop franco from telling the truth . silas : like you stopped me . [ scene_break ] nina : how could ava have a picture of me with silas ? she would 've ... had to have been there the whole time . franco : exactly . ava must 've been there when you showed up . she must 've hid when she heard you banging on the door , and then she ... snapped a photo of you right next to silas ' body , and then she must 've split right before i got there . nina : listen , if ava has this picture , why has n't she used it ? she hates me . she 'd sell me up the river in a second . franco : she 's using the photo for leverage . she will give me the photo as soon as i give her the recording of her admitting to killing connie falconeri . nina : but that recording is in your father 's office , and you 're in jail . franco : do n't worry . i 've got someone very capable on the case . [ scene_break ] dr. obrecht : excuse me . mrs. shipley : oh . may i help you ? dr. obrecht : ja , bitte . i think you can . [ scene_break ] jordan : maybe these people have nothing to do with your coffee shipment getting hit , and you 're just serving me up a couple of guys that you want out of the way . sonny : why do n't you just investigate ? bring them in , ask questions . worst- case scenario , they 're innocent . you let them go , right ? on the other hand , you might bag julian jerome . wise choice . you want to stay for breakfast ? jordan : no . [ chuckles ] i 'm good . i 'm leaving . and i 'm taking my son with me . [ scene_break ] kiki : how am i supposed to live the rest of my life like this when i can barely make it through the next five minutes ? morgan : hey . i 'm sorry . i should n't have said it did n't matter . but you know what ? you 're not gon na get any answers right this second . and did n't you want to make this day about your dad , not about franco ? kiki : yeah . i know . [ sniffles ] morgan : look , i - i realize that i was n't your dad 's favorite person . kiki : what do you mean ? my dad liked you . morgan : yeah , i mean , you know , he liked me i guess as much as any dad could like their daughter 's boyfriend , but i - i know how he felt about you . and -- and -- and torturing yourself like this is not what he would 've wanted for you . kiki : yeah , you 're right . i know .

[ scene_break ] nina : you enlisted my aunt liesl to get the recording ? franco : yeah . i - i know you have your misgivings about obrecht , but she 's the right person for the job . nina : mnh - mnh . nope , nope . there has to be another way . franco : i do n't think there is . every other way seems to put you in the crosshairs , and i ca n't have that . nina : because you trust me . franco : exactly . and now you 're gon na have to trust me . i 'll let you know as soon as i hear from liesl , but please do n't worry . she 'll come through for us . you 'll see . [ scene_break ] mrs. shipley : is the district attorney expecting you ? dr. obrecht : i am the chief of staff of general hospital here on an urgent legal matter . please announce me . mrs. shipley : dr. liesl obrecht is here . he 'll see you now .

[ clears throat ] we are really , really good . we 're so good , and he 's so cool and we 're cool , and we 're gon na be together once he gets me out of this jam . [ gasps ] technically , it 's -- it 's my aunt liesl who 's gon na get me out of this jam , i know . and we 're not each other 's favorite person . but she loves franco , and she 'd do anything for franco , even if that meant helping me , and -- who am i kidding ? i 'm screwed . [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] dr. obrecht : what is the meaning of this ? where is the da ? ric : mayor lomax appointed me as acting da . my first case on the docket is prosecuting franco . is that why you decided to stop by ? dr. obrecht : more or less . what wonderful news that i have family influential at city hall . ric : family ? dr. obrecht : you are still related and married to my niece , nina , are you not ? ric : oh , yes , indeed , i am . i 'm sorry . i keep forgetting that you 're related . dr. obrecht : and so are we related . perhaps i can take you to breakfast ? we can get to know one another a bit while we discuss the meritless charges leveled at my friend . ric : oh , i 'm afraid i 'm gon na have to take a rain check on that , doctor . i 'm currently building a very strong case against franco . his father may have gone easy on him , but i wo n't . [ scene_break ] franco : you quit . scott : i did , for you , my son . cool , huh ? franco : that is so cool . scott : you should 've seen me throw down with lomax last night . she was trying to railroad you right into pentonville . my own son . well , you know what they say . homey do n't play that . franco : they do n't say -- nobody says that . scott : i just said it . and i also just drew up a press release . `` let it be known scott baldwin , district attorney , is now scott baldwin , attorney for hire . `` my first client -- my firstborn . franco : okay , but you still have to go back and clean out your office , right ? tie up all the loose ends , grab all the important stuff you might 've left behind . scott : no , i do n't . i did n't even so much as take a pen , because i do n't want to be accused of stealing office supplies . there 's nothing there for me . franco : nothing there . nothing ? nothing ? scott : zip . franco : no mementos ? scott : nothing . there is nothing there . now , listen , let 's get down to business . let 's talk about everything that went on at silas ' apartment the night of his death .

[ breathes deeply ] i 'm so , so sorry for your loss . kiki : [ crying ] [ scene_break ] alexis : so , sonny sent you this gift basket out of the blue with a new york daily trumpeting the death of this down - state mobster . so , either you want to know what this has to do with you , or you already know . julian : okay , yes . i knew the man in question . alexis : country club ? yacht society ? back of a truck ? julian : serge ran a large operation . i had some dealings with him . i 'm sure sonny did , too . alexis : so , why do you think he sent you the paper ? julian : [ sighs ] if you 're asking me whether i was in any way involved in this man 's death , the answer is no . no longer in the business , and i 'm no longer in competition with sonny . alexis : sonny does n't seem to believe you . julian : i 'm sure he does n't . maybe sonny sent me that paper to let me know that he had serge killed and wants to annex his territory . in which case , he 's welcome to it . alexis : hmm . sonny 's usually quiet and discrete about that kind of stuff . i mean , he does n't brag about his killing . julian : honestly , alexis , it could be anything . you know , i 've long given up trying to figure out what goes through that -- that man 's head . [ scene_break ] jordan : thomas , you made your point , okay ? you 're pissed , i get it . but it 's time to come home , baby . sonny : maybe we should all just sit down and talk about this together -- jordan : okay , i do n't care what you say . you 're not my son 's family . this is n't my son 's home . he would be better off with me , where he 's safe . sonny : well , he 's safe here . so , i - i -- jordan : no one is safe with you , sonny . your son , michael , took a hit to the head and was in a coma because of you and your business . carly : okay , you know what ? we 're gon na leave the kids out of this . jordan : carly , they 're already in it . i 'm -- i 'm sorry . i 'm not gon na have my son end up like yours . carly : okay , if you 're worried so much about tj , then why did you abandon him ? why 'd you go undercover with the jeromes ? where was all this maternal concern when shawn was raising tj by himself with no help from you ? i mean , i have made some mistakes , and there are a lot of things i regret , but i 've always been straight with my kids . that 's more than what you 've done . jordan : so , what are you saying , carly ? that being a murderer and a racketeer is okay as long as we 're all honest about it ? carly : i 'm saying that next time you decide to open your mouth about someone else 's family , take a look at your own -- or what 's left of it . tj : thank you , uh , carly , but i can speak for myself . mom , i 'm never going anywhere with you . jordan : tj , if you just come with me , we can talk this out . tj : thank you . but i 'm fine where i am . mr. corinthos and miss jacks welcomed me into their home , and they 've been good to me . i like it here more than anywhere else ... except maybe when i was living with shawn . jordan : look , i know that you blame me for shawn going to prison , and that 's ... that 's fine . i accept it . tj : really ? i mean , 'cause it does n't seem like you -- does n't seem like you accept it . jordan : tj , this is n't the way . this is n't the way to make things even between us . staying here is a mistake . you 're gon na get hurt . tj : and if i do , it 'll be because of a decision i made with my eyes open and nobody lying to me . [ sighs ] jordan : well , my door 's always open if you change your mind . i will follow up on this . sonny : i think you 'll be very pleased . jordan : and you know what ? if this -- if this leads back to you , i will bust your ass , and , carly , when that happens , you will thank me . and i will get my son back .
