victoria : the quarterly reports are out . victor : uh - huh . victoria : uh - huh . victor : let me take a look . victoria : please do . victor : so , let 's see . uh - huh . [ chuckles ] victor : well , that looks good . there 's a spike , a rather dramatic spike , for brash & sassy 's sales . victoria : yes , which is why i have this ginormous smile on my face right now . victor : yes , you do . victoria : [ chuckles ] victor : yep . wait a minute . what is this ? victoria : [ sighs ] victor : while brash & sassy went up in sales , there 's a precipitous drop for chelsea 2.0 . victoria : yeah , i know . there was nowhere for it to go but down . victor : hmm . victoria : i tried to tell abby that , but she was just too green and too stubborn to listen to me . victor : but this precipitous of a drop ? victoria : well , i would ask abby what she thinks , although she tends to ignore what 's right in front of her face . victor : i tried to reach her , and she did n't answer the phone , so what do you think about all this ? victoria : about my division going up or hers going down ? victor : both . abby : i should check the time . stitch : or not . abby : ah , but the office needs me . stitch : yeah , and they can survive without you . me , on the other hand , i 'm like a thirsty man in the desert . we should order another bottle of champagne . what do you say ? abby : oh , my god . the quarterly report comes out today . stitch : wow , you got that from champagne ? abby : [ sighs ] `` order another bottle . `` i 'm the genius who got more orders for chelsea 2.0 . i ca n't wait to rub victoria 's nose in the expanded line . the proof will be in the quarterly report , and the quarterly report comes out today . stitch : [ laughs ] wow . your mind works fast . abby : hello . stitch : yeah ? abby : genius . but the office needs me . now . stitch : hey , hey . i ca n't let you do that . not until you guarantee you 'll go to europe with me -- today . ian : psst ! hey , neighbor . [ laughs ] did you know you can do real - estate transactions over the internet ? presto , you wire some funds and you , too , can be the resident of a lovely penthouse apartment . adam : have you lost your mind ? chelsea : babe ? is that you ? adam : uh , yeah , sweetheart , i 'll be right there ! is this your idea of keeping a low profile ? get out of here . hey . chelsea : hi ! did you forget your key ? adam : uh , no . i have my key . chelsea : who were you talking to ? adam : just now ? nick : whoa ! what are you doing ? sage : what ? i 'm just getting the laptop ! nick : no , no . sit down . sage : oh , stop it . nick : sit -- hey , sit down . come on . sage : i 'm pregnant . i 'm not an invalid . nick : you 're a pregnant woman who had some dizziness and pain , so sit back down on the couch . end of discussion . sage : you 're very sweet . you 're very caring . thank you . but can i ask you for a favor ? nick : name it . sage : can you back off and let me do something for you for once ? noah : hey . where you at ? marisa : i 'm right here . noah : you sure ? you seem like you 're a million miles away . marisa : oh . no . no place special . here with you is much , much better . luca : aww . just who i was hoping to see . neil : how 'd you know i 'd be here ? devon : you mean in the same house that you were planning on turning into hilary 's dream home ? dad , it seems like you 've been lying to a lot of people lately . why are you here ? will you tell me the truth ? neil : okay , here 's what i want you to do . i want you to turn around and go . let me do what i need to do without dragging you into it , okay ? devon : wait , wait , wait , wait , wait a second . hold on a second . i 'm your son . i 'm already dragged into whatever this is . just tell me what 's going on . neil : yeah , believe it or not , it 's all for you . so you know , son , this house had a real purpose . to make hilary happy . to be the home that she always wanted . that 's what i 'm doing here . i 'm keeping her dream alive , man . i thought it was high time to , you know , put it back together . devon : you 're renovating this house for hilary ? neil : i 'm renovating this house for both of you , so you can live here together . devon : dad ... you lost your eyesight in this house . this is the same house that you planned on spending your life with hilary . neil : yeah , that 's right . this house . if i make this house right again , i heal myself , man . i heal us . and prayers up for your wife that she comes back safely . and when she does , i hope both of you accept this house as a gift from me . together you can make this house yours . devon : you 're really doing this for us ? neil : yeah . abby : europe would be amazing with you . i could show you all my old haunts in london . stitch : all right , so let 's do it . abby : but neither of us have jobs that we can just blow off . can you imagine what victoria would say ? stitch : [ scoffs ] she 'd be happy for us . i know it . abby : you know ? stitch : we could go on a business trip , arrange some meetings . we can be front row during paris fashion week . abby : how do you know when fashion week is ? stitch : and after all the champagne and air kisses , we can find a secluded chateau where i could have you all to myself for hours and hours ... and hours . abby : you really want this ? stitch : oh , i really want this right now . abby : sipping wine , driving up the coast , not at the same time . stitch : no , of course not . look , i 'll book it and we 're out of here , okay ? abby : not until i go check the numbers and give work a heads up . sage : so , you 're working at newman , you 're checking in on noah at the club , you 're parenting faith -- thank you -- and you are supporting sharon as she checks into fairview , and i 'm sitting here like a lump on the couch . nick : but you 're a hot lump . sage : [ laughs ] nick : look , you 're following doctor 's orders for the sake of our baby and for me , because now i do n't have to worry as much and my head wo n't explode . sage : but i 'm going stir - crazy , and i do n't want to go back to those dreams where victor takes our baby , which i know he 's not going to . he 's just a caring grandfather who wants to buy our kid a pony . but i want to be productive , you know ? i want to do the books for the club . nick : just let noah deal with it and save yourself the stress and aggravation . sage : what 's stressful is that you treat me like a delicate flower , nick . it 's like that ob who thinks that all my pains are in my head . nick : it 's just one person 's opinion , but stitch is on it now , so if there is a medical reason , he 's gon na find it . meanwhile -- sage : meanwhile i will sit here if you let me do the books . nick : is that really what you want ? profit and loss and spreadsheets ? sage : yes ! nick : 'cause , you know , big daddy can think of other ways you could be spending your time . sage : [ laughs ] really ? like , um , hot sex in between shifts in the office ? nick : well , you said it , not me , but yes . sage : [ laughs ] [ sighs ] okay , okay . all right . listen . [ sighs ] you do your job . i 'm gon na do my job . and then , baby , i will couch - surf with you all night long . nick : all right . sage : yeah . nick : cool . sage : cool . i just need last week 's receipts . nick : oh , my gosh . seriously ? that 's -- sage : yes . receipts . nick : okay . i 'm on it . sage : nick . thank you . nick : sure . sage : i love you . nick : love you , too . [ door closes ] sage : [ sighs ] ooh . okay . luca : the food is good here . like the tapas place in madrid . you remember , marisa ? marisa : i 'm sorry . uh , no . luca : well , the one with the bulldog out front . he tried to follow you down the street whenever we left . [ chuckles ] well , you , me , and my wife . how soon they forget , eh ? marisa : we hold on to what matters , i suppose . the rest just slips away . noah : hey , luca , uh , what are you still doing here , man ? i mean , marisa said that your wife 's in new york . thought you 'd be on a plane by now trying to win her back . luca : it 's her turn to wonder about me . to remember the spark , to think about what she 's missing . [ cell phone chimes ] noah : [ sighs ] marisa : everything okay ? noah : uh , yeah . dad needs me to get something to sage at their place . i 'll be just a minute . luca : oh , good . more time for us to catch up . you do n't remember the bulldog ? he adored you . marisa : [ sighs ] hurry back . noah : i will . marisa : [ sighs ] chelsea : i was certain i heard you talking to someone . adam : yeah , yeah , i was . i was talking to jack . i know you 're not thrilled about us working together on this whole virus hunt thing . chelsea : that 's okay . we 've moved past that . but i really thought i heard two voices out here . adam : two voi -- oh , i was on speakerphone with jack on the -- on the speakerphone . come on in . stay awhile . chelsea : oh , someone moved in , by the way . adam : really ? did you see him ? chelsea : no , i just saw the delivery guys . but it 's weird , someone else in your old place . adam : yeah ? remember when you came by and you asked me to dinner ? i wanted to tell you everything then . come on . let 's go . chelsea : well , let 's go introduce ourselves . adam : no , do n't do that . chelsea : what 's wrong with knocking ? this is someone we 're gon na see in the elevator , bump into in the parking garage . adam : yeah , no , that 's , um , that 's what i was gon na tell you . he 's not home . he was getting in the elevator as i was getting off . chelsea : well , how did you know it was the new neighbor ? adam : he was putting his key away . chelsea : did you say hi ? adam : i mean , he did one of these , i did one of these . chelsea : okay , that 's really neighborly of you . adam : well , it 's enough , you know . i mean , look , you invited me over for dinner . look where we 're at now . chelsea : so , uh , what did he look like ? was he older ? younger ? adam : chelsea , you 're gon na have plenty of time to meet this guy when he comes banging on our door here because connor is laughing too loud . chelsea : well , right now connor 's laughing too loud in the park with the nanny , remember ? he 's gone . adam : give us a little mommy and daddy alone time . chelsea : [ chuckles ] i would love that , but i have to get to the office for quarterly reports . adam : you do ? chelsea : mm - hmm . adam : okay . speaking of that , just remember what i said about the chelsea 2.0 , all right ? those numbers could start coming down . chelsea : yeah , or we could ride this wave . maybe it 's not over yet . so , chill a bottle of wine for us . i 'll see you soon . bye . adam : hmm . chelsea : come on . adam : have fun . chelsea : bye . ian : oh , to think that i would ever shush a laughing child . what kind of a person would do that ? adam : stop talking . ian : [ chuckles ] what are you so afraid of ? this is a very exclusive building . nobody 's ever gon na hear anything they should n't . adam : what the hell are you doing here ? in this town ? in this building ? you think chelsea has n't seen your mug shot plastered all over the internet ? are you trying to go back to prison ? ian : no , no , not at all . not at all . i intend to be very cautious . maybe i 'll buy a pair of those eyeglasses that has the fake nose and mustache . adam : shut up . if anyone finds out that you 're out of prison , you know they 're gon na find out who got you out of prison . ian : i think it 's wonderful that you 're right across the hall from me . now we do n't have to meet in public places . adam : or you could just get the hell out of town , right ? we could use the damn telephone . ian : you know , i worry about you , adam . you have everything a man could want -- a delectably beautiful woman , a healthy young son , and yet you want more . retribution , vengeance , victor broken and bowed . my friend , you have to make up your mind what you want more . vengeance or your picture - perfect family . luca : leave town now ? i just got here , mi amor . marisa : i ... i am not your love . victor newman wants you gone , and victor newman always gets what he wants . luca : he was very clear about that when we met . i was flattered he considered me such a threat . marisa : [ chuckles ] not a threat . a nuisance . he would happily crush you under his heel . luca : you 'd never let that happen . the last thing you want is to lose me again . marisa : luca , i am in love with noah . luca : if you love him so much , why have n't you told him the truth about us ? noah : are you sure you want these ? sage : yes ! receipts ! thank you . noah : you know , nobody gets this excited about spreadsheets , right ? sage : i do . i really do , at least right now . noah : how 's bed rest treating you ? not getting cabin fever ? sage : [ laughs ] uh , well , it 's nothing i ca n't handle . i do n't want to take my chances , you know . noah : yeah . you know , it 's kind of like what my mom is doing in her own way . um , she 's not completely off the rails , but she checked herself into fairview to get control of her meds . sage : she 's a wonderful mother . it takes a lot of bravery to do what she 's doing . noah : yeah . takes guts to ask for help . sage : it really does . i did n't know how to ask for help until nick . i think marisa 's the same way . but now she 's met someone that she can finally let herself trust . noah : well , maybe she just lets me think that . victoria : abby has earned some time away from her phone and the office . her being here is not gon na change what 's in the quarterly report . what 's done is done . for now . victor : but with all due respect , my sweetheart , you have n't explained to me why there was such a precipitous drop in sales for chelsea 2.0 . nick : dad , did you already forget vick has been saying all along that chelsea 2.0 would have a major correction after inflated numbers ? victor : you 're right . you did predict that , did n't you ? victoria : there 's an accusation in there . victor : mnh - mnh . but abby has been gone for 24 hours ensconced in some hotel suite with stitch . and , uh , i just wondered if you had anything to do with her being gone from her job . victoria : yes , dad , i talked to ben . he wanted to spend some more time with her , and she needed a break from the office . victor : according to you , you mean ? nick : dad , if you know where abby is , you can get her in here right this second . victor : well , it is good that she is n't here because we all realize how important abby is for the success for newman enterprises . abby : which is why i 'm here . not a moment too soon . i apologize for my brief absence from the building . i was advised to take some time to recharge . but according to this , chelsea 2.0 hit a wall . chelsea : or the wall hit us right in the face . i 'm trying not to panic , but gabriel warned that this could happen . nick : ah , gabriel , the voice of doom . chelsea : well , victoria said the same thing . was she the voice of doom ? nick : it was an opinion , chelsea , one i did n't happen to share at the time , but it turns out vick was right . abby : and is n't it just uncanny that as soon as chelsea 2.0 slowed down , brash & sassy picked right up ? nick : different divisions . no overlap . there was no reason to jump to conclusions on that one . victor : well , it seems that according to these numbers , chelsea 2.0 is still out - performing the competition and brash & sassy is hitting its stride . so i would like you to all take a look at these numbers and do what 's best for newman enterprises , all right ? abby : admit it , dear sister . you tried to sabotage my company . adam : do n't you ever mention my family again . you understand me ? ian : there 's such an agitation in you and an abrasiveness that is unfair to me . did i not give you my word that chelsea 2.0 would not be destroyed along with the rest of victor 's empire ? and i have honored that promise . adam : yeah . except now you 're going after victoria 's division . the idea was to bring down victor , okay ? victor alone . no one else . ian : well , newman enterprises is more than victor newman . what ? did you think the paragon worm would be selective ? aim only at your father and ignore everyone else ? adam : newman enterprises is a multinational conglomerate , okay ? surely there 's a way to bring it down without going after victoria or chelsea or anyone else . ian : chelsea 2.0 , brash & sassy -- that name is so ' 80s . all it needs is shoulder pads . adam : yeah , well , you know , it 's a legacy brand . ian : that 's history . and once it 's dead and buried , victoria can rise up out of the ashes and be free of the past , be free of her father . it 's a gift -- freedom . the same gift you gave me . and i 'm so grateful . adam : you grateful ? is that why you 're out and about just begging to be noticed ? taking up residence here in my damn building , harassing my family ? ian : and a lovely family it is . i would very much like to get to know them . adam : you 're gon na stay away from both of them . ian : your pulse is racing now , is n't it ? come on . you can practically hear your heart beat thumping in your ears . come on . relax , adam . embrace the journey . i 'm gon na give you a chance to calm down , man . come on . come on . all right . if you need me , i 'm right across the hall . come anytime . neil : when your mind is racing with thoughts of fear , doubt , confusion , i want you to remember all the good things that you have in your life , like this house . you 're gon na live in this house . you 're gon na make it your house . and your kids are gon na grow up here . my grandkids . devon : it 's empty right now , dad . it 's just you and me here . neil : not forever , son . i promise you . so , uh , how did you -- how did you find out that i was here ? devon : people been worried about you . neil : yeah ? you followed me out here ? gwen : devon did n't trail you here . i did . neil : well , look at y , thinking you can come here and invade my privacy . gwen : i care about you , neil . i mean , you said you had an appointment , and then you left the hospital so quickly . neil : wait a minute . you followed me to the hospital ? wow . my appointment is none of your business . gwen : i just wanted to make sure that you 're okay . that 's all . devon : he 's been here fixing this place up as a gift to hilary and me . all right , dad , she had no way of knowing . when i got here , thought you were dwelling in the past , but now we can both see what 's going on . neil : yeah , okay . we both know what 's coming next . gwen , we are done . i suggest you accept that and move on before there 's a problem here . gwen : romance is not my top priority . ur well - being is . and i 'm not gon na apologize for that . neil : sure . smart move dragging devon into all this and make sure that he can see that golden halo around your head . devon : hey . neil : and i 'll just bet u that you do n't want hilary to return . see , that way you can make your move on him and pick up the pieces . am i right about that , gwen ? devon : neil , neil . gwen : all this time and you do n't know me at all . devon : dad , what the hell was that ? she 's not trying to make a play on me . this is all about you . neil : hey , do me a favor . you just concentrate on finding your wife , all right ? let me do what i need to do . oh , hey , for once , just give me my dignity . can you all do that for once ? [ sighs ] marisa : noah deserves to know everything . my past , you , all of it . luca : and yet you stay quiet like a mouse . marisa : what do you want ? and do n't say me , because that 's not an option . luca : because of your little friend ? marco did n't last . neither will this one . marisa : yes , i was with marco , and now i 'm with noah . and i despise you . luca : love and hate . two sides of the same coin . the coin will flip back over . i know how to make that happen . marisa : [ sighs ] [ sighs ] victoria : the market fluctuates , abby . i did n't find some way to sabotage chelsea 2.0 . and i did n't find some magical way to boost the numbers for brash & sassy . abby : no , no , my line just happened to go down while yours just happened to go up . nick : just hang on . what we need is hard numbers , not speculation . and you two need to stop with all this . chelsea : thank you . there 's a lot more at stake here than which sister gets to gloat , okay ? chelsea 2.0 is my line . abby : well , victoria does n't mind if you 're a casualty in her sibling wars . tell them . tell them how you insisted stitch get me away from the office . victoria : i did n't insist anything . i just suggested that you take a breather . abby : god , you are so threatened by me being here . newman enterprises is supposed to be all about you , is n't it ? well , congratulations . you tried to hurt me , but instead you hurt the whole damn company . what a great leader you are . chelsea : stop her . victoria : let her go sit in a corner and sulk ! chelsea : you know , when i agreed to work at newman , i expected some respect and some support , not this ridiculous sibling rivalry blowing up my business . victoria : abby thinks that somehow she 's responsible for the chelsea 2.0 sales uptick . now , there 's no proof of that any more than there 's proof that i 'm responsible for the downturn . nick : you know , vick 's right . the uptick in brash & sassy does mirror the decrease in chelsea 2.0 's numbers . i mean , there 's a distinct pattern . it 's not anything we 're generating at newman . victoria : someone altered our sales figures ? nick : not someone . something . a computer . maybe this is that cyber attack dad 's been warning us about . stitch : you can cover my shifts for those days , i cover you for your next vacation and the holiday after that . and the next one after that . come on , man . this is so i can go to europe with abby . i know . poor me . ooh ! awesome . thanks . okay , once i book the flight , i 'll let you know . yeah . sweet . abby : call him back . tell him you do n't need the time off . stitch : what 's wrong ? abby : well , i do n't generally take intercontinental trips with people who conspire against me . stitch : [ scoffs ] i do n't even know what that means . abby : victoria confirmed that you two teamed up to try and keep me out of the newman loop . stitch : why do i care what happens at newman ? i wanted to be with you , and you 're making it sound like it was a crime . abby : it is a crime . you stole my time away from work . you stole my focus and my attention , all because your ex whispered in your ear and told you to , which makes you pathetic . or you 're just that selfish , which makes you a jerk . stitch : oh , now i 'm a jerk ? abby : i blinked because of you , and my whole division went down the toilet . stitch : oh , and that 's all that matters , huh ? abby : yes ! stitch : more than you and me ? chelsea : it 's bad , adam , like you said . chelsea 2.0 has taken a dive . as quickly as the sales went up , it 's as quickly as they went down . adam : not below previous levels , right ? chelsea : uh , no . they plateaued . how did you know that ? adam : well , it 's , you know , basic market behavior , right ? your key demo has n't changed , so you keep supplying them . manufacturing distribution has n't changed thanks to abby 's in - source program , right ? you maintain capital , so you maintain quality control . chelsea : yeah , everything you 're saying is making sense . i just wish i had listened to you sooner . adam : babe , there 's nothing you could have done about this , nothing you could have done to prevent it , okay ? the worst is behind you . chelsea : maybe it 's not , though . adam : sweetheart , these numbers are not gon na dip lower than they already have , okay ? it 's basic business . chelsea : well , nick says there 's nothing basic about this . adam : well , nick 's brain is pretty basic , sweetheart . he should stick to cutting fruit and zesting limes . chelsea : well , i did n't tell you the other part . brash & sassy is up a similar percentage to chelsea 2.0 's decline , so nick is thinking maybe this has something to do with this virus that victor 's been talking about . if someone is trying to take down victor , they 're gon na take us all down with him . victor : you missed a great opportunity . your husband was trying to be affectionate with you . you should have used your talents as you did with marco to get him the hell out of here . marisa : you want me to sleep with luca even though i 'm in love with your grandson ? victor : mm - hmm . you 're responsible for him coming to this town . now , you get him out of here . marisa : the only way to get him out is if i go with him . victor : well , it should n't take you very long to pack your things , now should it ? marisa : and tell noah what ? that i do n't want to be with him ? he lost his fiancée . you want me to add to that pain ? victor : you tell him the truth . you tell him that you were married or are married to luca santori . do you think he 'll forgive you ? marisa : either way , i 'll hurt him . victor : oh , you make me almost teary - eyed . i give you exactly 48 hours to make sure that your husband leaves town with or without you . if you do n't , i will take matters into my hand . victoria : so you think that the increase in brash & sassy is due to the paragon attack . but why would n't paragon just tank all of newman and be done with it ? nick : a program does n't have a brain . a person or people created this virus . the motivation for that could be any number of reasons -- jealousy , revenge , entertainment . we 're gon na get this paragon nerd think he 's got us up against a wall . well lull him into a false sense of security . soon as he lets his guard down ... do n't say i sound like dad again . victoria : no , not at all . no , you 're the anti - dad . and one day soon , you 'll be bouncing your new son or daughter on your knee , and you 'll warn them to not go work for dad , not get sucked in . nick : words to live by . victoria : good luck with that . nick : i 'm gon na need it . sage : ah ! [ sighs ] if you 're hungry , just say so . [ sighs ] okay . i think we should call daddy . [ sighs ] okay [ groans ] [ breathing heavily ] [ groans ] abby : i get it . yeah , i needed protection , a bodyguard . it was your chance to play hero . maybe that 's why you jumped so quickly from victoria to me -- because she was n't pathetic , but i was . [ chuckles ] yeah . but now that i have my own life and no one 's trying to kill me , maybe the thrill 's gone for you . stitch : hmm . maybe i should give you credit for finally talking about us instead of your job . it 's your entire life now . it 's like nothing else exists . even your dad finds time to try to manage the rest of the universe . not just newman enterprises . abby : okay , okay , so yay , abby , for being good at her job , but boo , abby , for not spending every waking moment the way that you think i should . stitch : oh , come on . that 's a crock . abby : you were gon na whisk me away to europe not for romance , not for fun , but to try and control me . well , tough luck , because i am exactly who i want to be . i can say what i want , do what i want . i call the shots , not you . stitch : okay , you are not making this easy . you know that ? abby : oh , i can make it very easy for you . yeah , yeah . enjoy your trip to europe . without me . or stay here without me . or do whatever the hell you want to do without me . stitch : [ laughs ] you know what ? fine ! done ! over ! abby : bon voyage ! stitch : yeah ! adam : sweetheart , i would know if paragon was making any kind of headway , okay ? not nick . chelsea : i mean , he does n't have any proof yet or anything . it 's just a gut instinct . adam : a gut instinct ? yeah , okay , well , that makes sense , because why use logic and reason when you can make decisions based on my brother 's innards ? who else has he shared this feeble plan with ? chelsea : just victoria and me so far . there 's also another theory that maybe victoria 's trying to sabotage abby out of jealousy . adam : well , see , there you go . that 's what it is , okay ? he 's trying to keep the sisters from ripping each other 's throats out , so he came up with this plan , this idea to take blame away from everyone . except the problem is no one is to blame , okay ? it 's no one 's fault . that just happened . listen , let them freak out . let them worry about it , okay ? you just keep making design magic . chelsea : gladly . but hey , i do n't want you getting sucked into this newman nightmare , okay ? no fixating , no dwelling . adam : where am i right now ? i 'm right here , right ? and who am i with ? chelsea : me . adam : i 'm with you , right ? that 's all that matters -- you and our little man , okay ? it 's what i hold precious , sacred . it 's the only thing i 'm gon na take care of . all right ? devon : i 'm glad you came here instead of going home . everything that neil said was ... gwen : he 's in pain . you know , he 's going through recovery on his own , and he 's pushing me away . i can accept that . but i need you to know that i 'm not trying to be noble to score points with you . devon : i know . i think the fact that you 're not angry with neil after the way he acted is -- seems pretty noble to me . gwen : no . i will put up with anything that neil has to say or do right now because ... i 'm falling in love with him . neil : i dragged you out of that water . i saved your life ! i could have left you there . devon could grieve . and we could all heal and move on at some point . i should have left you there . [ sighs ] [ sobs ] [ sighs ] i ... i am so sorry . [ sobbing ] i am so sorry . [ door closes ] noah : marisa . sorry that took so long . so , uh ... luca hassle you anymore about his wife ? marisa : if she wanted to be with him , she would be . and ... he should respect that . noah : respect ? yeah , respect is important . trust , honesty . 'cause without those ... marisa : why are you so -- noah : you know , what really gets me is the lie . right in front of me like i 'm just some simple - minded idiot , like i was never gon na catch on . marisa : noah -- noah : it 's you . yeah . yeah . you 're married to that son of a bitch . marisa : no -- noah : yeah . marisa : noah . [ sighs ] [ door closes ] marisa : [ groans ] [ sighs ] [ knock on door ] victor : hello ? sage ? hello ? sage : [ groans ] victor : sage . my goodness , what happened ? i just came to see if you and the baby were okay . sage : i 'm okay . victor : let me help you up . sage : no , i do n't need your help , victor . just leave me alone .

<s>[INST] victoria : the quarterly reports are out . victor : uh - huh . victoria : uh - huh . victor : let me take a look . victoria : please do . victor : so , let 's see . uh - huh . [ chuckles ] victor : well , that looks good . there 's a spike , a rather dramatic spike , for brash & sassy 's sales . victoria : yes , which is why i have this ginormous smile on my face right now . victor : yes , you do . victoria : [ chuckles ] victor : yep . wait a minute . what is this ? victoria : [ sighs ] victor : while brash & sassy went up in sales , there 's a precipitous drop for chelsea 2.0 . victoria : yeah , i know . there was nowhere for it to go but down . victor : hmm . victoria : i tried to tell abby that , but she was just too green and too stubborn to listen to me . victor : but this precipitous of a drop ? victoria : well , i would ask abby what she thinks , although she tends to ignore what 's right in front of her face . victor : i tried to reach her , and she did n't answer the phone , so what do you think about all this ? victoria : about my division going up or hers going down ? victor : both . abby : i should check the time . stitch : or not . abby : ah , but the office needs me . stitch : yeah , and they can survive without you . me , on the other hand , i 'm like a thirsty man in the desert . we should order another bottle of champagne . what do you say ? abby : oh , my god . the quarterly report comes out today . stitch : wow , you got that from champagne ? abby : [ sighs ] `` order another bottle . `` i 'm the genius who got more orders for chelsea 2.0 . i ca n't wait to rub victoria 's nose in the expanded line . the proof will be in the quarterly report , and the quarterly report comes out today . stitch : [ laughs ] wow . your mind works fast . abby : hello . stitch : yeah ? abby : genius . but the office needs me . now . stitch : hey , hey . i ca n't let you do that . not until you guarantee you 'll go to europe with me -- today . ian : psst ! hey , neighbor . [ laughs ] did you know you can do real - estate transactions over the internet ? presto , you wire some funds and you , too , can be the resident of a lovely penthouse apartment . adam : have you lost your mind ? chelsea : babe ? is that you ? adam : uh , yeah , sweetheart , i 'll be right there ! is this your idea of keeping a low profile ? get out of here . hey . chelsea : hi ! did you forget your key ? adam : uh , no . i have my key . chelsea : who were you talking to ? adam : just now ? nick : whoa ! what are you doing ? sage : what ? i 'm just getting the laptop ! nick : no , no . sit down . sage : oh , stop it . nick : sit -- hey , sit down . come on . sage : i 'm pregnant . i 'm not an invalid . nick : you 're a pregnant woman who had some dizziness and pain , so sit back down on the couch . end of discussion . sage : you 're very sweet . you 're very caring . thank you . but can i ask you for a favor ? nick : name it . sage : can you back off and let me do something for you for once ? noah : hey . where you at ? marisa : i 'm right here . noah : you sure ? you seem like you 're a million miles away . marisa : oh . no . no place special . here with you is much , much better . luca : aww . just who i was hoping to see . neil : how 'd you know i 'd be here ? devon : you mean in the same house that you were planning on turning into hilary 's dream home ? dad , it seems like you 've been lying to a lot of people lately . why are you here ? will you tell me the truth ? neil : okay , here 's what i want you to do . i want you to turn around and go . let me do what i need to do without dragging you into it , okay ? devon : wait , wait , wait , wait , wait a second . hold on a second . i 'm your son . i 'm already dragged into whatever this is . just tell me what 's going on . neil : yeah , believe it or not , it 's all for you . so you know , son , this house had a real purpose . to make hilary happy . to be the home that she always wanted . that 's what i 'm doing here . i 'm keeping her dream alive , man . i thought it was high time to , you know , put it back together . devon : you 're renovating this house for hilary ? neil : i 'm renovating this house for both of you , so you can live here together . devon : dad ... you lost your eyesight in this house . this is the same house that you planned on spending your life with hilary . neil : yeah , that 's right . this house . if i make this house right again , i heal myself , man . i heal us . and prayers up for your wife that she comes back safely . and when she does , i hope both of you accept this house as a gift from me . together you can make this house yours . devon : you 're really doing this for us ? neil : yeah . abby : europe would be amazing with you . i could show you all my old haunts in london . stitch : all right , so let 's do it . abby : but neither of us have jobs that we can just blow off . can you imagine what victoria would say ? stitch : [ scoffs ] she 'd be happy for us . i know it . abby : you know ? stitch : we could go on a business trip , arrange some meetings . we can be front row during paris fashion week . abby : how do you know when fashion week is ? stitch : and after all the champagne and air kisses , we can find a secluded chateau where i could have you all to myself for hours and hours ... and hours . abby : you really want this ? stitch : oh , i really want this right now . abby : sipping wine , driving up the coast , not at the same time . stitch : no , of course not . look , i 'll book it and we 're out of here , okay ? abby : not until i go check the numbers and give work a heads up . sage : so , you 're working at newman , you 're checking in on noah at the club , you 're parenting faith -- thank you -- and you are supporting sharon as she checks into fairview , and i 'm sitting here like a lump on the couch . nick : but you 're a hot lump . sage : [ laughs ] nick : look , you 're following doctor 's orders for the sake of our baby and for me , because now i do n't have to worry as much and my head wo n't explode . sage : but i 'm going stir - crazy , and i do n't want to go back to those dreams where victor takes our baby , which i know he 's not going to . he 's just a caring grandfather who wants to buy our kid a pony . but i want to be productive , you know ? i want to do the books for the club . nick : just let noah deal with it and save yourself the stress and aggravation . sage : what 's stressful is that you treat me like a delicate flower , nick . it 's like that ob who thinks that all my pains are in my head . nick : it 's just one person 's opinion , but stitch is on it now , so if there is a medical reason , he 's gon na find it . meanwhile -- sage : meanwhile i will sit here if you let me do the books . nick : is that really what you want ? profit and loss and spreadsheets ? sage : yes ! nick : 'cause , you know , big daddy can think of other ways you could be spending your time . sage : [ laughs ] really ? like , um , hot sex in between shifts in the office ? nick : well , you said it , not me , but yes . sage : [ laughs ] [ sighs ] okay , okay . all right . listen . [ sighs ] you do your job . i 'm gon na do my job . and then , baby , i will couch - surf with you all night long . nick : all right . sage : yeah . nick : cool . sage : cool . i just need last week 's receipts . nick : oh , my gosh . seriously ? that 's -- sage : yes . receipts . nick : okay . i 'm on it . sage : nick . thank you . nick : sure . sage : i love you . nick : love you , too . [ door closes ] sage : [ sighs ] ooh . okay . luca : the food is good here . like the tapas place in madrid . you remember , marisa ? marisa : i 'm sorry . uh , no . luca : well , the one with the bulldog out front . he tried to follow you down the street whenever we left . [ chuckles ] well , you , me , and my wife . how soon they forget , eh ? marisa : we hold on to what matters , i suppose . the rest just slips away . noah : hey , luca , uh , what are you still doing here , man ? i mean , marisa said that your wife 's in new york . thought you 'd be on a plane by now trying to win her back . luca : it 's her turn to wonder about me . to remember the spark , to think about what she 's missing . [ cell phone chimes ] noah : [ sighs ] marisa : everything okay ? noah : uh , yeah . dad needs me to get something to sage at their place . i 'll be just a minute . luca : oh , good . more time for us to catch up . you do n't remember the bulldog ? he adored you . marisa : [ sighs ] hurry back . noah : i will . marisa : [ sighs ] chelsea : i was certain i heard you talking to someone . adam : yeah , yeah , i was . i was talking to jack . i know you 're not thrilled about us working together on this whole virus hunt thing . chelsea : that 's okay . we 've moved past that . but i really thought i heard two voices out here . adam : two voi -- oh , i was on speakerphone with jack on the -- on the speakerphone . come on in . stay awhile . chelsea : oh , someone moved in , by the way . adam : really ? did you see him ? chelsea : no , i just saw the delivery guys . but it 's weird , someone else in your old place . adam : yeah ? remember when you came by and you asked me to dinner ? i wanted to tell you everything then . come on . let 's go . chelsea : well , let 's go introduce ourselves . adam : no , do n't do that . chelsea : what 's wrong with knocking ? this is someone we 're gon na see in the elevator , bump into in the parking garage . adam : yeah , no , that 's , um , that 's what i was gon na tell you . he 's not home . he was getting in the elevator as i was getting off . chelsea : well , how did you know it was the new neighbor ? adam : he was putting his key away . chelsea : did you say hi ? adam : i mean , he did one of these , i did one of these . chelsea : okay , that 's really neighborly of you . adam : well , it 's enough , you know . i mean , look , you invited me over for dinner . look where we 're at now . chelsea : so , uh , what did he look like ? was he older ? younger ? adam : chelsea , you 're gon na have plenty of time to meet this guy when he comes banging on our door here because connor is laughing too loud . chelsea : well , right now connor 's laughing too loud in the park with the nanny , remember ? he 's gone . adam : give us a little mommy and daddy alone time . chelsea : [ chuckles ] i would love that , but i have to get to the office for quarterly reports . adam : you do ? chelsea : mm - hmm . adam : okay . speaking of that , just remember what i said about the chelsea 2.0 , all right ? those numbers could start coming down . chelsea : yeah , or we could ride this wave . maybe it 's not over yet . so , chill a bottle of wine for us . i 'll see you soon . bye . adam : hmm . chelsea : come on . adam : have fun . chelsea : bye . ian : oh , to think that i would ever shush a laughing child . what kind of a person would do that ? adam : stop talking . ian : [ chuckles ] what are you so afraid of ? this is a very exclusive building . nobody 's ever gon na hear anything they should n't . adam : what the hell are you doing here ? in this town ? in this building ? you think chelsea has n't seen your mug shot plastered all over the internet ? are you trying to go back to prison ? ian : no , no , not at all . not at all . i intend to be very cautious . maybe i 'll buy a pair of those eyeglasses that has the fake nose and mustache . adam : shut up . if anyone finds out that you 're out of prison , you know they 're gon na find out who got you out of prison . ian : i think it 's wonderful that you 're right across the hall from me . now we do n't have to meet in public places . adam : or you could just get the hell out of town , right ? we could use the damn telephone . ian : you know , i worry about you , adam . you have everything a man could want -- a delectably beautiful woman , a healthy young son , and yet you want more . retribution , vengeance , victor broken and bowed . my friend , you have to make up your mind what you want more . vengeance or your picture - perfect family . luca : leave town now ? i just got here , mi amor . marisa : i ... i am not your love . victor newman wants you gone , and victor newman always gets what he wants . luca : he was very clear about that when we met . i was flattered he considered me such a threat . marisa : [ chuckles ] not a threat . a nuisance . he would happily crush you under his heel . luca : you 'd never let that happen . the last thing you want is to lose me again . marisa : luca , i am in love with noah . luca : if you love him so much , why have n't you told him the truth about us ? noah : are you sure you want these ? sage : yes ! receipts ! thank you . noah : you know , nobody gets this excited about spreadsheets , right ? sage : i do . i really do , at least right now . noah : how 's bed rest treating you ? not getting cabin fever ? sage : [ laughs ] uh , well , it 's nothing i ca n't handle . i do n't want to take my chances , you know . noah : yeah . you know , it 's kind of like what my mom is doing in her own way . um , she 's not completely off the rails , but she checked herself into fairview to get control of her meds . sage : she 's a wonderful mother . it takes a lot of bravery to do what she 's doing . noah : yeah . takes guts to ask for help . sage : it really does . i did n't know how to ask for help until nick . i think marisa 's the same way . but now she 's met someone that she can finally let herself trust . noah : well , maybe she just lets me think that . victoria : abby has earned some time away from her phone and the office . her being here is not gon na change what 's in the quarterly report . what 's done is done . for now . victor : but with all due respect , my sweetheart , you have n't explained to me why there was such a precipitous drop in sales for chelsea 2.0 . nick : dad , did you already forget vick has been saying all along that chelsea 2.0 would have a major correction after inflated numbers ? victor : you 're right . you did predict that , did n't you ? victoria : there 's an accusation in there . victor : mnh - mnh . but abby has been gone for 24 hours ensconced in some hotel suite with stitch . and , uh , i just wondered if you had anything to do with her being gone from her job . victoria : yes , dad , i talked to ben . he wanted to spend some more time with her , and she needed a break from the office . victor : according to you , you mean ? nick : dad , if you know where abby is , you can get her in here right this second . victor : well , it is good that she is n't here because we all realize how important abby is for the success for newman enterprises . abby : which is why i 'm here . not a moment too soon . i apologize for my brief absence from the building . i was advised to take some time to recharge . but according to this , chelsea 2.0 hit a wall . chelsea : or the wall hit us right in the face . i 'm trying not to panic , but gabriel warned that this could happen . nick : ah , gabriel , the voice of doom . chelsea : well , victoria said the same thing . was she the voice of doom ? nick : it was an opinion , chelsea , one i did n't happen to share at the time , but it turns out vick was right . abby : and is n't it just uncanny that as soon as chelsea 2.0 slowed down , brash & sassy picked right up ? nick : different divisions . no overlap . there was no reason to jump to conclusions on that one . victor : well , it seems that according to these numbers , chelsea 2.0 is still out - performing the competition and brash & sassy is hitting its stride . so i would like you to all take a look at these numbers and do what 's best for newman enterprises , all right ? abby : admit it , dear sister . you tried to sabotage my company . adam : do n't you ever mention my family again . you understand me ? ian : there 's such an agitation in you and an abrasiveness that is unfair to me . did i not give you my word that chelsea 2.0 would not be destroyed along with the rest of victor 's empire ? and i have honored that promise . adam : yeah . except now you 're going after victoria 's division . the idea was to bring down victor , okay ? victor alone . no one else . ian : well , newman enterprises is more than victor newman . what ? did you think the paragon worm would be selective ? aim only at your father and ignore everyone else ? adam : newman enterprises is a multinational conglomerate , okay ? surely there 's a way to bring it down without going after victoria or chelsea or anyone else . ian : chelsea 2.0 , brash & sassy -- that name is so ' 80s . all it needs is shoulder pads . adam : yeah , well , you know , it 's a legacy brand . ian : that 's history . and once it 's dead and buried , victoria can rise up out of the ashes and be free of the past , be free of her father . it 's a gift -- freedom . the same gift you gave me . and i 'm so grateful . adam : you grateful ? is that why you 're out and about just begging to be noticed ? taking up residence here in my damn building , harassing my family ? ian : and a lovely family it is . i would very much like to get to know them . adam : you 're gon na stay away from both of them . ian : your pulse is racing now , is n't it ? come on . you can practically hear your heart beat thumping in your ears . come on . relax , adam . embrace the journey . i 'm gon na give you a chance to calm down , man . come on . come on . all right . if you need me , i 'm right across the hall . come anytime . neil : when your mind is racing with thoughts of fear , doubt , confusion , i want you to remember all the good things that you have in your life , like this house . you 're gon na live in this house . you 're gon na make it your house . and your kids are gon na grow up here . my grandkids . devon : it 's empty right now , dad . it 's just you and me here . neil : not forever , son . i promise you . so , uh , how did you -- how did you find out that i was here ? devon : people been worried about you . neil : yeah ? you followed me out here ? gwen : devon did n't trail you here . i did . neil : well , look at y , thinking you can come here and invade my privacy . gwen : i care about you , neil . i mean , you said you had an appointment , and then you left the hospital so quickly . neil : wait a minute . you followed me to the hospital ? wow . my appointment is none of your business . gwen : i just wanted to make sure that you 're okay . that 's all . devon : he 's been here fixing this place up as a gift to hilary and me . all right , dad , she had no way of knowing . when i got here , thought you were dwelling in the past , but now we can both see what 's going on . neil : yeah , okay . we both know what 's coming next . gwen , we are done . i suggest you accept that and move on before there 's a problem here . gwen : romance is not my top priority . ur well - being is . and i 'm not gon na apologize for that . neil : sure . smart move dragging devon into all this and make sure that he can see that golden halo around your head . devon : hey . neil : and i 'll just bet u that you do n't want hilary to return . see , that way you can make your move on him and pick up the pieces . am i right about that , gwen ? devon : neil , neil . gwen : all this time and you do n't know me at all . devon : dad , what the hell was that ? she 's not trying to make a play on me . this is all about you . neil : hey , do me a favor . you just concentrate on finding your wife , all right ? let me do what i need to do . oh , hey , for once , just give me my dignity . can you all do that for once ? [ sighs ] marisa : noah deserves to know everything . my past , you , all of it . luca : and yet you stay quiet like a mouse . marisa : what do you want ? and do n't say me , because that 's not an option . luca : because of your little friend ? marco did n't last . neither will this one . marisa : yes , i was with marco , and now i 'm with noah . and i despise you . luca : love and hate . two sides of the same coin . the coin will flip back over . i know how to make that happen . marisa : [ sighs ] [ sighs ] victoria : the market fluctuates , abby . i did n't find some way to sabotage chelsea 2.0 . and i did n't find some magical way to boost the numbers for brash & sassy . abby : no , no , my line just happened to go down while yours just happened to go up . nick : just hang on . what we need is hard numbers , not speculation . and you two need to stop with all this . chelsea : thank you . there 's a lot more at stake here than which sister gets to gloat , okay ? chelsea 2.0 is my line . abby : well , victoria does n't mind if you 're a casualty in her sibling wars . tell them . tell them how you insisted stitch get me away from the office . victoria : i did n't insist anything . i just suggested that you take a breather . abby : god , you are so threatened by me being here . newman enterprises is supposed to be all about you , is n't it ? well , congratulations . you tried to hurt me , but instead you hurt the whole damn company . what a great leader you are . chelsea : stop her . victoria : let her go sit in a corner and sulk ! chelsea : you know , when i agreed to work at newman , i expected some respect and some support , not this ridiculous sibling rivalry blowing up my business . victoria : abby thinks that somehow she 's responsible for the chelsea 2.0 sales uptick . now , there 's no proof of that any more than there 's proof that i 'm responsible for the downturn . nick : you know , vick 's right . the uptick in brash & sassy does mirror the decrease in chelsea 2.0 's numbers . i mean , there 's a distinct pattern . it 's not anything we 're generating at newman . victoria : someone altered our sales figures ? nick : not someone . something . a computer . maybe this is that cyber attack dad 's been warning us about . stitch : you can cover my shifts for those days , i cover you for your next vacation and the holiday after that . and the next one after that . come on , man . this is so i can go to europe with abby . i know . poor me . ooh ! awesome . thanks . okay , once i book the flight , i 'll let you know . yeah . sweet . abby : call him back . tell him you do n't need the time off . stitch : what 's wrong ? abby : well , i do n't generally take intercontinental trips with people who conspire against me . stitch : [ scoffs ] i do n't even know what that means . abby : victoria confirmed that you two teamed up to try and keep me out of the newman loop . stitch : why do i care what happens at newman ? i wanted to be with you , and you 're making it sound like it was a crime . abby : it is a crime . you stole my time away from work . you stole my focus and my attention , all because your ex whispered in your ear and told you to , which makes you pathetic . or you 're just that selfish , which makes you a jerk . stitch : oh , now i 'm a jerk ? abby : i blinked because of you , and my whole division went down the toilet . stitch : oh , and that 's all that matters , huh ? abby : yes ! stitch : more than you and me ? chelsea : it 's bad , adam , like you said . chelsea 2.0 has taken a dive . as quickly as the sales went up , it 's as quickly as they went down . adam : not below previous levels , right ? chelsea : uh , no . they plateaued . how did you know that ? adam : well , it 's , you know , basic market behavior , right ? your key demo has n't changed , so you keep supplying them . manufacturing distribution has n't changed thanks to abby 's in - source program , right ? you maintain capital , so you maintain quality control . chelsea : yeah , everything you 're saying is making sense . i just wish i had listened to you sooner . adam : babe , there 's nothing you could have done about this , nothing you could have done to prevent it , okay ? the worst is behind you . chelsea : maybe it 's not , though . adam : sweetheart , these numbers are not gon na dip lower than they already have , okay ? it 's basic business . chelsea : well , nick says there 's nothing basic about this . adam : well , nick 's brain is pretty basic , sweetheart . he should stick to cutting fruit and zesting limes . chelsea : well , i did n't tell you the other part . brash & sassy is up a similar percentage to chelsea 2.0 's decline , so nick is thinking maybe this has something to do with this virus that victor 's been talking about . if someone is trying to take down victor , they 're gon na take us all down with him . victor : you missed a great opportunity . your husband was trying to be affectionate with you . you should have used your talents as you did with marco to get him the hell out of here . marisa : you want me to sleep with luca even though i 'm in love with your grandson ? victor : mm - hmm . you 're responsible for him coming to this town . now , you get him out of here . marisa : the only way to get him out is if i go with him . victor : well , it should n't take you very long to pack your things , now should it ? marisa : and tell noah what ? that i do n't want to be with him ? he lost his fiancée . you want me to add to that pain ? victor : you tell him the truth . you tell him that you were married or are married to luca santori . do you think he 'll forgive you ? marisa : either way , i 'll hurt him . victor : oh , you make me almost teary - eyed . i give you exactly 48 hours to make sure that your husband leaves town with or without you . if you do n't , i will take matters into my hand . victoria : so you think that the increase in brash & sassy is due to the paragon attack . but why would n't paragon just tank all of newman and be done with it ? nick : a program does n't have a brain . a person or people created this virus . the motivation for that could be any number of reasons -- jealousy , revenge , entertainment . we 're gon na get this paragon nerd think he 's got us up against a wall . well lull him into a false sense of security . soon as he lets his guard down ... do n't say i sound like dad again . victoria : no , not at all . no , you 're the anti - dad . and one day soon , you 'll be bouncing your new son or daughter on your knee , and you 'll warn them to not go work for dad , not get sucked in . nick : words to live by . victoria : good luck with that . nick : i 'm gon na need it . sage : ah ! [ sighs ] if you 're hungry , just say so . [ sighs ] okay . i think we should call daddy . [ sighs ] okay [ groans ] [ breathing heavily ] [ groans ] abby : i get it . yeah , i needed protection , a bodyguard . it was your chance to play hero . maybe that 's why you jumped so quickly from victoria to me -- because she was n't pathetic , but i was . [ chuckles ] yeah . but now that i have my own life and no one 's trying to kill me , maybe the thrill 's gone for you . stitch : hmm . maybe i should give you credit for finally talking about us instead of your job . it 's your entire life now . it 's like nothing else exists . even your dad finds time to try to manage the rest of the universe . not just newman enterprises . abby : okay , okay , so yay , abby , for being good at her job , but boo , abby , for not spending every waking moment the way that you think i should . stitch : oh , come on . that 's a crock . abby : you were gon na whisk me away to europe not for romance , not for fun , but to try and control me . well , tough luck , because i am exactly who i want to be . i can say what i want , do what i want . i call the shots , not you . stitch : okay , you are not making this easy . you know that ? abby : oh , i can make it very easy for you . yeah , yeah . enjoy your trip to europe . without me . or stay here without me . or do whatever the hell you want to do without me . stitch : [ laughs ] you know what ? fine ! done ! over ! abby : bon voyage ! stitch : yeah ! adam : sweetheart , i would know if paragon was making any kind of headway , okay ? not nick . chelsea : i mean , he does n't have any proof yet or anything . it 's just a gut instinct . adam : a gut instinct ? yeah , okay , well , that makes sense , because why use logic and reason when you can make decisions based on my brother 's innards ? who else has he shared this feeble plan with ? chelsea : just victoria and me so far . there 's also another theory that maybe victoria 's trying to sabotage abby out of jealousy . adam : well , see , there you go . that 's what it is , okay ? he 's trying to keep the sisters from ripping each other 's throats out , so he came up with this plan , this idea to take blame away from everyone . except the problem is no one is to blame , okay ? it 's no one 's fault . that just happened . listen , let them freak out . let them worry about it , okay ? you just keep making design magic . chelsea : gladly . but hey , i do n't want you getting sucked into this newman nightmare , okay ? no fixating , no dwelling . adam : where am i right now ? i 'm right here , right ? and who am i with ? chelsea : me . adam : i 'm with you , right ? that 's all that matters -- you and our little man , okay ? it 's what i hold precious , sacred . it 's the only thing i 'm gon na take care of . all right ? devon : i 'm glad you came here instead of going home . everything that neil said was ... gwen : he 's in pain . you know , he 's going through recovery on his own , and he 's pushing me away . i can accept that . but i need you to know that i 'm not trying to be noble to score points with you . devon : i know . i think the fact that you 're not angry with neil after the way he acted is -- seems pretty noble to me . gwen : no . i will put up with anything that neil has to say or do right now because ... i 'm falling in love with him . neil : i dragged you out of that water . i saved your life ! i could have left you there . devon could grieve . and we could all heal and move on at some point . i should have left you there . [ sighs ] [ sobs ] [ sighs ] i ... i am so sorry . [ sobbing ] i am so sorry .

just because you fell apart in front of everyone ? mia : you know , all this enlightenment is making me really thirsty . would you like to go get some juice ? simone : sure , yeah . you want something ? ok . never mind . lysistrata : good work . greenlee : i blubbered . you should have warned me . lysistrata : where 's the fun in that ? greenlee : i knew there should have been some -- there would have been some trick . lysistrata : there was no trick , greenlee . my guess -- those tears opened your second and fourth chakras . greenlee : big deal . lysistrata : it is a big deal . the second chakra is related to relationship issues , the fourth to issues of trust and love . you 're unclogged , girl . greenlee : i was never clogged . lysistrata : sweetie , your spiritual plumbing is a mess . now , i have an appointment to go to . come . but i want you to stay here -- sit down -- and focus on issues of trust and love . namaste . greenlee : i 'm sorry . i feel like an idiot . carlos : why ? because you showed emotion ? i mean , why do you hide your feelings ? that 's what you do . you hide your heart behind your beauty and your work and your tantrums . you do n't have to hide your feelings . not with the people who care about you . greenlee : i should go . carlos : no , no , no , you should stay , talk . greenlee : if i do -- i got to get to fusion , but thanks . carlos : why do you do this ? every time you let me in -- at least , i feel that you want me to -- and then you just push me away . why ? greenlee : i do n't know . i wish i did . carlos : look , maybe that 's the answer . you just breathe deeply , look behind the veil , see what 's going to happen next . erica : you want me to trust you , kendall ?

this information i have about michael is legitimate . it could blow him back to europe in pieces . erica : val , hold on a minute , please . all right , i 'll trust you on this . but i swear to you , if i get one inkling that you are conning me -- kendall : i 'm not . erica : val , i 'll get back to you in a few minutes . ok , tell me . what do n't i know about michael cambias ' takeover plans ?

kendall : yes , lena . she 's been selling out enchantment and sleeping with michael . all this time , i thought he loved me and he was with her . erica : i -- i had my doubts about lena but nothing concrete . she 's done so much for enchantment . kendall : yeah , well , she 's doing a lot more for michael . erica : are you sure about this ? kendall : yeah , i saw them together . michael confirmed it . erica : boyd tried to warn me about lena , too . i should have listened to him . kendall : yeah , well , he was right . she is so good -- she is so good at conning people that they do n't figure it out until they 're too far gone . erica : oh , my god . lena and bianca . what if bianca is their target ? kendall : yeah , well , it makes sense . lena was supposed to seduce that concoction out of boyd , but that failed . so then michael used me . and of course , that was a failure , as well . i mean , what 's next ? he sics lena on bianca , and she gives it up , so to speak . erica : dear god . kendall : i mean , binks is looking for love . a little sugar from lena , she might spill the formula . erica : i 'm not worried about the formula ! i do n't want anyone to hurt bianca . bianca : i 've never been in the middle of a meltdown in a yoga class before . lena : i felt the heat myself . bianca : well , me , too , but i meant greenlee . it 's such a shame . she 's such a diva to the rest of the world , but she 's miserable inside . lena : not everyone 's as open as you , bianca . bianca : i guess i 'm kind of obvious . lena : no , it 's charming . i wish i had the guts to -- how do you say ? -- put myself out there , you know ? bianca : no . are you kidding me ? that sophisticated , mystery thing that you 've got going is completely irresistible . lena : here -- turn around . bianca : oh . reggie : joni , what are we doing here ? joni : praying for mr. montgomery . reggie : i do n't pray . joni : prayer is very powerful . reggie : well , where was all the power when jack got shot ? joni : well , if you 'd give it a chance -- reggie : i did that . my mom dragged me to church every sunday . she sang the songs . she prayed the prayers . i even stayed awake during the sermons . and what is she now ? a junkie . joni : that does n't mean that prayer ca n't help . reggie : look , prayer is for little white girls that think real cops are tv cops . i deal my own way . joni : by fighting ? and lying ? reggie : oh , you 're going to preach to me ? you 're fresh off a lie yourself . you 're going to hell just like me . joni : ok , so leave . i do n't care what you think . reggie : um -- excuse me . what are you saying to -- you know . joni : i 'm asking him to give mr. montgomery strength and peace . reggie : oh . joni : why do n't you give it a try ? reggie : um -- do you mind keeping this , like , between -- joni : reggie , just -- reggie : um -- yo , god , what 's up ? i know you 're supposed to be perfect and all , but you really messed up , you know , letting j take a bullet like that . and , you know , he 's good people . he 's my friend . and he needs your help . which is only right because he did n't deserve to be shot in the first place . anyway , i 'm not real square on how you run things up there , but he needs taking care of . and i was just wondering if you could throw down some of that -- that strength that joni was bragging on . reggie : and if jack pulls through this , then i 'll owe you one . and that 's about it . um -- well , thanks for listening . joni : amen . reggie : amen . erica : how dare michael cambias use bianca like that ? she is so trusting . kendall : michael used me , too . erica : i know . i tried to warn you . and how i wish you would have listened . but now to toy with bianca 's heart like that -- it is just -- it is unforgivable . well , when i am finished with cambias , he is going to be so sorry that he ever even looked at my daughter bianca , let alone tried to use her like that . kendall : yeah , well , technically , lena is doing the hands - on work . erica : yeah , lena . lena . i can understand corporate espionage , but pretending to be gay just to take advantage of bianca 's innocence ?

he sics lena on bianca , and she gives it up , so to speak . erica : dear god . kendall : i mean , binks is looking for love . a little sugar from lena , she might spill the formula . erica : i 'm not worried about the formula ! i do n't want anyone to hurt bianca . bianca : i 've never been in the middle of a meltdown in a yoga class before . lena : i felt the heat myself . bianca : well , me , too , but i meant greenlee . it 's such a shame . she 's such a diva to the rest of the world , but she 's miserable inside . lena : not everyone 's as open as you , bianca . bianca : i guess i 'm kind of obvious . lena : no , it 's charming . i wish i had the guts to -- how do you say ? -- put myself out there , you know ? bianca : no . are you kidding me ? that sophisticated , mystery thing that you 've got going is completely irresistible . lena : here -- turn around . bianca : oh . reggie : joni , what are we doing here ? joni : praying for mr. montgomery . reggie : i do n't pray . joni : prayer is very powerful . reggie : well , where was all the power when jack got shot ? joni : well , if you 'd give it a chance -- reggie : i did that . my mom dragged me to church every sunday . she sang the songs . she prayed the prayers . i even stayed awake during the sermons . and what is she now ? a junkie . joni : that does n't mean that prayer ca n't help . reggie : look , prayer is for little white girls that think real cops are tv cops . i deal my own way . joni : by fighting ? and lying ? reggie : oh , you 're going to preach to me ? you 're fresh off a lie yourself . you 're going to hell just like me . joni : ok , so leave . i do n't care what you think . reggie : um -- excuse me . what are you saying to -- you know . joni : i 'm asking him to give mr. montgomery strength and peace . reggie : oh . joni : why do n't you give it a try ? reggie : um -- do you mind keeping this , like , between -- joni : reggie , just -- reggie : um -- yo , god , what 's up ? i know you 're supposed to be perfect and all , but you really messed up , you know , letting j take a bullet like that . and , you know , he 's good people . he 's my friend . and he needs your help . which is only right because he did n't deserve to be shot in the first place . anyway , i 'm not real square on how you run things up there , but he needs taking care of . and i was just wondering if you could throw down some of that -- that strength that joni was bragging on . reggie : and if jack pulls through this , then i 'll owe you one . and that 's about it . um -- well , thanks for listening . joni : amen . reggie : amen . erica : how dare michael cambias use bianca like that ? she is so trusting . kendall : michael used me , too . erica : i know . i tried to warn you . and how i wish you would have listened . but now to toy with bianca 's heart like that -- it is just -- it is unforgivable . well , when i am finished with cambias , he is going to be so sorry that he ever even looked at my daughter bianca , let alone tried to use her like that . kendall : yeah , well , technically , lena is doing the hands - on work . erica : yeah , lena . lena . i can understand corporate espionage , but pretending to be gay just to take advantage of bianca 's innocence ? kendall : bianca 's an adult . maybe lena is n't totally pretending to be gay . erica : look , i do n't care . whatever lena 's doing , she 's obviously up to no good . kendall : what are you doing ?

[ scene_break ] chad : hey . oh , a shower -- just what i needed . [ scene_break ] miguel : kay , why did it take me so long to realize i 've been in love with you all this time ? you know , i should have never left to look for charity . maybe that 's the reason i could never find her -- because i was meant to be with you -- with you and maria . or maybe it 's fate like theresa likes to say . mama said it , and luis said it , too . we 're meant to be together , kay . we 're meant to be a family -- you , me , and maria . kay : i can not believe everything you 've done to make this night so perfect . fox : i just -- i just want to make you happy , kay . kay : you really mean that , do n't you ? fox : i 've never meant anything more . kay : fox . fox : i just really wanted to show you how much i love you . kay : i must be the luckiest girl in the world because no one -- no one has ever been this good to me . fox : i take care of mine , kay , and you are mine . you belong to me , body and soul . if that 's what you want . kay : yeah , of course . of course that 's what i want . i 'm all yours . fox 's voice : you are mine , kay , and no one will ever have you but me . you belong to me . miguel : fox is really going all out . it 's as if he already knows what i 'm planning on doing . but i ca n't let that stop me . i have to make my move tonight . i have to convince kay that i 'm the one she loves , that i 'm the one she wants to spend the rest of her life with .

more confusion today . jared may love theresa , but she 's wondering if she can forget ethan . chris believes sheridan is all his , but she 's realizing she ca n't live without luis , and he feels the same . this one ended with a long- awaited kiss , too . whitney is really happy that she and chad are n't really siblings and can marry and live happily ever after , but although chad says he agrees , he runs off to hop in the shower with an unseen someone as soon as he can . and fox goes all out to woo kay , even tho he 's still steaming about seeing her and miguel going at it . miguel has decided to make her realize she really loves him as much as he loves her , and kay .... well , she seems happy with fox ( although a little suspicious of his motives ) , but ca n't seem to stay away from miguel .
<s>[INST] whitney : when i stand here with you and look at our son , i have to pinch myself to believe i 'm not dreaming , you know ? we really are together , are n't we ? chad : yeah . whitney : yeah , it 's what i 've dreamed about , you know . chad : yeah , finally . the whole time we thought we were brother and sister , even then , i could n't stop myself from hoping and praying that somehow , someway , and we would be able to be a real family with miles . whitney : that 's all i ever wanted , too . and i just felt so guilty about my feelings , you know , that i denied it to you , and of course to myself . chad : oh , baby , i 'm so sorry about what you went through . i mean , god , living in that convent , torturing yourself out of guilt . whitney : yeah , well , the worst part about the whole thing was thinking about what this whole thing was going to do to miles , i mean , growing up being a child of incest when it was never even true to begin with , you know ? chad : no , no . us being brother and sister was a sick , twisted plot by alistair . whitney : yeah , he 's an evil man , i mean ... chad : hey , look , he 's dead now . he ca n't hurt anybody anymore . whitney : and we are together and nothing 's ever going to tear us apart . [ scene_break ] fox : are you sure i ca n't talk you into eloping tonight ? kay : you 're relentless , huh ? we -- we ca n't . fox : do n't you want to be mrs. fox crane ? kay : of course . of course i do . but -- but like i said , my dad and your mom would be really disappointed if they could n't see us get married . fox : ok . but we are going to move up the date , right ? kay : absolutely fox : ok , good . sooner the better . kay : not that i care at all , but is there a reason why you want to move up the date ? { kay : miguel , yes , yes . miguel : i love you . } fox : i told you ... i love you . i want the whole world to know that you are my wife , that you 're mine . and what 's wrong with that ? kay : nothing . fox : good . i have another surprise for you . kay : another surprise ? fox : mm - hmm . kay : what ? fox : come with me . [ scene_break ] theresa : ok , he did not expect that we were going to come up with those documents so quickly . i mean , i told ethan we 're not going to lie down and let him and his client roll all over us . jared : well , we might as well let ethan know . he 's going to have one heck of a fight on his hands . theresa : oh , yeah . there 's no way i 'm going to let him take my company . i mean , this is my son 's legacy and i 'm going to make sure it 's protected no matter what . [ scene_break ] spike : hey , how 's it going there , partner ? chris : spike , what the hell are you doing here ? we ca n't be seen together . spike : hey , nobody saw me , man . just want to get your opinion on these yachts . chris : yachts ? spike : yes . see , i am having trouble deciding , should i get the 100-foot silversea or do what trump did and get the 400-footer ? look at that one . chris : what the hell are you talking about , spike ? spike : i 'm talking about what i 'm going to be doing with some of that money i 'm getting from you . just want to know how soon i can order my boat . chris : look , i agreed to funnel funds from crane industries to your offshore account , but it 's going to take time and you 're putting us in ridiculous danger by being here . spike : relax , nobody else is working here this late . how long are you going to take to get me my money ? chris : i 'm trying to figure out how to embezzle the funds without being caught , spike . spike : do me a favor . do n't take too much time because i 'm getting a little bored of harmony . i do n't know what it is , but i 'm feeling the calling of the greek islands . chris : you know what ? believe me , spike , i want you out of harmony just as much as you want to go . spike : oh , really ? sounds like you 're thinking our association is about over with here . chris : it is , spike . we had a deal . i get you the money , and you do n't tell anybody , especially sheridan , about my past . spike : right , right , 'cause she 'd probably never forgive you if she knew that you were working for her old man . hell , she 'd divorce you in a new york minute . would n't she ? chris : yeah . spike : yeah . chris : because i love sheridan , that 's the only reason i 'm agreeing these terms . spike : oh really ? it 's beautiful . let me tell you something , our terms just changed . you and me -- we 're going to be friends for a long , long time there , buddy boy . you 're going to do what i tell you to do for as long as i want . in turn , i wo n't tell your little wifey , sheridan , about your connection to her dear - hated daddy . then i get rich and you get to stay married . woo - hoo . [ scene_break ] sheridan : no , no , this is wrong . i 'm married to chris . i should n't have come . what was i thinking ? miguel : thanks for listening , luis . luis : what , are you kidding me ? you 're my little brother , ok ? i 'm always going to be here for you . miguel : i appreciate the advice . luis : hey , it 's not just advice , ok ? it 's important stuff . in fact , love is the only thing that really matters in this world . miguel : i guess i knew that . i just needed to hear it from somebody else . i do n't want to do the wrong thing . luis : well , if you ca n't imagine yourself without the person you love , then you got to go for it . miguel : i ca n't imagine my life without kay . luis : well , see , there you go . then you have no choice . miguel : even if she 's getting married to fox ? luis : yeah , she 's engaged to fox , ok ? she 's not married to him . listen to me , if there even the slightest chance that kay still loves you , you 've got to find out for both of your sakes . listen , when two people love each other , i mean really love each other , nothing should keep them apart , ok ? nothing . sheridan : you 're right , luis , you 're right . [ scene_break ] theresa : i ca n't wait to go to court . i ca n't wait to see the look on ethan 's face when we beat him . jared : you seem quite confident we 're going to win this . theresa : of course i am . i mean , i may not be an attorney , but besides you , we 've got the best that money can buy . and stuart allen signed a contract with crane industries giving us the right to use his patent . so , he does n't have a leg to stand on . jared : but he hired ethan . and according to you , ethan is one of the best lawyers around . theresa : he is . but you know why he took this case , jared . he took it because he is jealous of us , because he wants to get even . jared : well , he says he 's just trying to salvage his reputation , get his career back on track . theresa : and that 's part of it , i 'm sure , but i also believe that he ca n't stand the fact that i 'm finally over him and that i have you in my life . i just wanted to thank you again for turning down julian 's offer to spy on me . it 's really hard to find people that you can trust in this business . jared : well , you can trust me , and not just in business . you can trust me with your heart . theresa : jared -- jared : no , no , no reason to say anything else . i can wait . i want you to know that . theresa : that means a lot to me . jared : well , you mean a lot to me . can i trust you with a secret ? theresa : well , yeah . jared : i 'm falling in love with you . [ scene_break ] spike : what 's this thing ? access codes ? what is this ? chris : it 's a codebook . it lists all the foreign access codes to crane 's foreign accounts . spike : really ? that sounds valuable . chris : yes . i thought i 'd start with those accounts , move some money into other offshore accounts . i 'll transfer the money several times and in different increments . that way we should be able to avoid a paper trail . spike : you see , that 's a good idea right there . you see , i knew that you would know what to do . chris : spike , i will have to move slowly . it wo n't help you if i get caught 'cause you will -- trust me , you will go down with me . spike : well , you know what ? i 'm not worried because by the time they figure out that the money is missing , i 'm going to be long gone . and no one 's going to suspect that you did the deed . hey , man , we 'll be home free . [ scene_break ] luis : if you have to fight for kay , then you do it . true love does n't always come easy . when it does , you can pretty much overcome any obstacle that stands in its way . miguel : i hear you . you know , but i ca n't help wondering why -- look , i do n't mean to bring up a painful subject , luis , but you and sheridan never did overcome the obstacles in your way . luis : yeah , and that 's all my fault . i totally blame myself . if i had listened to sheridan , if i had believed her that marty was our son , we 'd still be together , but i did n't . i had to let logic and the need for proof get in my way . i do n't want to see that happen between you and kay . miguel : i 'll try my best . luis : do that . you let me know how it turns out , all right ? miguel : i will . sheridan : you 're right . you do have to believe in your love . i do . i 'll never stop loving you , luis , ever .

( sighs ) they were probably going by the book . what ? rafe : it 's just that , adam , i 've spent a lot of time around jails and prisons in my time as a lawyer , and believe me , i 've seen my fair share of inmate attacks . no one , especially not a guard , ever forces anyone to file a report . adam : are you saying you think that i 'm lying ? rafe : what i 'm saying is something does n't make sense here , and in my mind , the only reason it would n't make sense is if you 're hiding something . are you ? [ scene_break ] daniel : okay , look . i know this is gon na sound lame , but your mom -- thank you -- your mom and dad , they just want what 's best for you . noah : i know . daniel : okay , you know . well , then ditch this whole plan to strike out on your own . noah : but it 's not that easy . daniel : you think it 's gon na be easy living on your own ? i mean , do you have any idea what it costs just to get an apartment alone ? you 've got your first month 's rent , your last month 's rent , uh , your security deposit . amber : oh , not to mention cable , electric , phone . daniel : yeah , and you 're not gon na be able to call your parents to have them bail you out , because guess what ? they 're not responsible for you anymore . yeah , they 'll be there for moral support . noah : or be there to say , `` i told you so . `` daniel : ( laughs ) okay , still not getting it . um , summer . if summer could talk , do n't you think that she would give anything to have her parents around ? noah : that 's just it . they 're not around . they 're too busy making a mess of their own lives to even know i 'm alive most of the time . daniel : okay , well , that 's all the more reason not to bail out on them , you know , when things are at their worst . noah : i just want to be able to see eden without being hassled , that 's all . daniel : and i get that . i do . why ? 'cause she 's the one sane thing in all this craziness , right ? you see , i do n't know what i would have done recently in my own life with all the stuff that 's been going on if amber was n't there for me . so , you know , maybe it 's time you stop wasting all your energy trying to break away from your parents and focus on the fact that you have that person , that one person that you can count on that you know is never gon na let you down . [ scene_break ] nikki : you 'd think after everything nicholas has been through , with cassie and noah and now sharon , that he 'd be granted a reprieve . victor : yeah . he will be once i find out who filed that report . i will not tolerate any more lies against our family . nikki : i heard you talking to rafe about adam . it does seem very strange that he would n't have mentioned that needle stabbing . victor : do n't you worry about that . nikki : well , i do , when it affects a very dear friend . i 'm still convinced that estella is just an innocent victim in this . victor : i know you think that . right now , we 're here to support our children and grandchildren . let 's concentrate on that , all right ? [ scene_break ] adam : i did consider mentioning the needle stabbing when i first filed a report , but , uh , i - i honestly thought it would be safer not to . i mean , look , it is one thing to -- to narc out an obvious beating , but , uh , to -- to go to the authorities and say the men responsible had hypodermics on them ? rafe : well , i just do n't understand how withholding that information would keep you safe when you 've already -- when you 've already filed the report . adam : can we just -- can we just not talk about this ? i - i try not to focus on it , especially not when i 'm so -- so happy . rafe : you are ? adam : ( sighs ) listen , rafe , um , ever since the last time you were -- you were here , i 've been thinking about that nonstop , and when you -- when you called and you said you were coming over , i -- i - i got really excited . rafe : how stupid do you think i am ? [ scene_break ] sharon : you know , you may not believe this , but , um , i 'm glad that you and nick have each other during this horrible time , because i know from experience that going through this alone can be pretty devastating , and the only way that you 'll get through whatever happens is together . phyllis : ( sighs ) sharon : that 's how i 've survived the hell of the past few months , knowing that jack has been there for me and will be there , no matter what happens with me and this baby . it means everything . phyllis : sharon , none of this makes sense . i - i ca n't be in that room with my daughter . they wo n't let me near her . i ca n't even -- i ca n't hold her . i ca n't do anything . sharon : okay , listen to me . you may not be able to -- to hold her in your arms , but you can touch her with your heart . you can be there for summer from a million miles away , because the bond between you two , it goes beyond time and space . it 's forever . phyllis : yeah . sharon : so just forget about the charges against you . everyone knows that you would never do anything like that to your daughter . phyllis : no , no , no . everyone does n't know that . sharon : all that matters now is being there for summer , any way you can .

( chuckles ) deal with it . i do n't know . noah : that 's cool . you guys seem right for each other . daniel : amber never doubted it , even when i broke it off with her . you know , she kind of taught me how to have faith . noah : i hope eden and i will always have that kind of faith in each other . daniel : look , man , if eden is as an amazing girl as you say she is , you 're not gon na have a problem with that , because when you find someone that you can really believe in , you just know it in your gut , right , babe ? amber : right . daniel : yeah .

[ scene_break ] noah : ( sighs ) it 's like she 's taking a nap , and any minute , you think she 's gon na wake up . daniel : it 's driving mom crazy . noah : phyllis ca n't even be in the room because someone accused her of purposely causing summer 's allergic reaction . amber : that is -- what ? that 's crazy . daniel : yeah , tell me about it . amber : who would do that ? noah : no one knows . and it 's not just phyllis they 're keeping out . my dad ca n't go in either . daniel : everyone else , they can just come and go as they please , even that lawyer guy . noah : ( sighs ) rafe torres . i think he had business with my grandpa . daniel : well , you , too . i mean , what was with those papers that he wanted filed ? noah : look , you 're gon na hear about it sooner than later . i 'm filing for emancipation . daniel : you 're doing what ? amber : is n't that like divorcing your parents ? noah : it 's exactly like that . daniel : hey , look , i get you wanting your freedom . but , i mean , are things really that bad ? noah : ( sighs ) both of my parents have gone out of their way to keep eden and me apart . meanwhile , they ca n't make up their minds if they want to be together or not . they 're way out of line . daniel : mom said that her and nick were all but over . she seemed pretty broken up about it . noah : that 's what i mean . they do what they want , and they do n't think about anyone else 's feelings , and now they want me to fall in line and be a family , because this time , it 's gon na last . daniel : do n't you think maybe you should give it a chance , see if -- noah : no , i - i - i ca n't take wondering where i 'm gon na live every other night because they ca n't make up their minds . amber : ( sighs ) you know , i get that . daniel : yeah , she might get that , but i think she might also agree with me that breaking off from them and trying to go out on your own , i mean , that -- that 's just a stupid idea . noah : ( sighs ) [ scene_break ] victor : what 's that ? nick : ( sighs ) a pamphlet somebody gave me . they obviously thought i needed a lesson in faith and the hereafter . victor : mm - hmm . nick : you know , dad , i can accept that someday , we 'll all , you know , be together . i just wish my kids did n't have to be a part of that deal . victor : ( sighs ) i wish nothing more than to be able to make this all go away for you . nick : i know . victor : perhaps the person who gave you this pamphlet knew the best way to get through troubled times is to never give up hope . nick : how do i keep it alive when everything around me is crashing in ? two days ago , i was house hunting with sharon , thinking i was gon na be a father again . now that 's been ripped away from me . victor : i understand , son . nick : you do , do n't you ? because of sabrina . victor : yep . you know , the thing is to not dwell on the past . the thing is to move forward . be happy with what you do have . nick : i do n't even know what that is anymore . i mean , i 've barely talked to sharon since -- since all this happened . you know , since i found out her baby was n't mine . victor : ( sighs ) you know , just focus on summer getting well now . you 'll have plenty of time to deal with ... the child situation , but i - i feel for you . i really do . [ scene_break ] phyllis : how did you do it ? how did you sit there watching cassie in that hospital bed , fighting for her life and not completely fall apart ? sharon : i think i was on autopilot for a lot of it . i could n't let myself go to the worst - case scenario . maybe that was because i knew that we were already there , but -- not that i think that that 's what 's happening now with summer . it 's -- it 's not . no one has told you that summer 's not gon na make it , and as long as she 's still here and breathing , you ca n't give up hope , not for her sake and not for your own . phyllis : right . oh , i remember the first time i held her . it was during that horrible ice storm , and everything was frozen over , but ... not my daughter , not the supergirl . she was warm , and she was so alive . and in that moment , i believed in things that i had never believed in before . sharon : like everything that you dreamed for her was possible , right ? well , you have to hold onto that . you have to . phyllis : ( sighs ) oh , i 'm trying . phyllis : ( sniffles ) phyllis : ( sighs ) ( cries ) [ scene_break ] adam : i ca n't expect you to understand what -- what it was like in there . rafe : try me . adam : i was harassed daily by the men who beat me . i was n't about to make things worse . rafe : well , you had no problem naming your accusers in the report . since that already put you in harm 's way , why not get specific about the fact that they jammed needles in your eyeballs ? adam : i was n't even gon na file a report . the guards forced me to . rafe : the guards forced you ? adam : yeah , i -- maybe they did n't want responsibility if something happened to me . i -- i do n't know . ( sighs ) they were probably going by the book . what ? rafe : it 's just that , adam , i 've spent a lot of time around jails and prisons in my time as a lawyer , and believe me , i 've seen my fair share of inmate attacks . no one , especially not a guard , ever forces anyone to file a report . adam : are you saying you think that i 'm lying ? rafe : what i 'm saying is something does n't make sense here , and in my mind , the only reason it would n't make sense is if you 're hiding something . are you ? [ scene_break ] daniel : okay , look . i know this is gon na sound lame , but your mom -- thank you -- your mom and dad , they just want what 's best for you . noah : i know . daniel : okay , you know . well , then ditch this whole plan to strike out on your own . noah : but it 's not that easy . daniel : you think it 's gon na be easy living on your own ? i mean , do you have any idea what it costs just to get an apartment alone ? you 've got your first month 's rent , your last month 's rent , uh , your security deposit . amber : oh , not to mention cable , electric , phone . daniel : yeah , and you 're not gon na be able to call your parents to have them bail you out , because guess what ? they 're not responsible for you anymore . yeah , they 'll be there for moral support . noah : or be there to say , `` i told you so . `` daniel : ( laughs ) okay , still not getting it . um , summer . if summer could talk , do n't you think that she would give anything to have her parents around ? noah : that 's just it . they 're not around . they 're too busy making a mess of their own lives to even know i 'm alive most of the time . daniel : okay , well , that 's all the more reason not to bail out on them , you know , when things are at their worst . noah : i just want to be able to see eden without being hassled , that 's all . daniel : and i get that . i do . why ? 'cause she 's the one sane thing in all this craziness , right ? you see , i do n't know what i would have done recently in my own life with all the stuff that 's been going on if amber was n't there for me . so , you know , maybe it 's time you stop wasting all your energy trying to break away from your parents and focus on the fact that you have that person , that one person that you can count on that you know is never gon na let you down . [ scene_break ] nikki : you 'd think after everything nicholas has been through , with cassie and noah and now sharon , that he 'd be granted a reprieve . victor : yeah . he will be once i find out who filed that report . i will not tolerate any more lies against our family . nikki : i heard you talking to rafe about adam . it does seem very strange that he would n't have mentioned that needle stabbing . victor : do n't you worry about that . nikki : well , i do , when it affects a very dear friend . i 'm still convinced that estella is just an innocent victim in this . victor : i know you think that . right now , we 're here to support our children and grandchildren . let 's concentrate on that , all right ? [ scene_break ] adam : i did consider mentioning the needle stabbing when i first filed a report , but , uh , i - i honestly thought it would be safer not to . i mean , look , it is one thing to -- to narc out an obvious beating , but , uh , to -- to go to the authorities and say the men responsible had hypodermics on them ? rafe : well , i just do n't understand how withholding that information would keep you safe when you 've already -- when you 've already filed the report . adam : can we just -- can we just not talk about this ? i - i try not to focus on it , especially not when i 'm so -- so happy . rafe : you are ? adam : ( sighs ) listen , rafe , um , ever since the last time you were -- you were here , i 've been thinking about that nonstop , and when you -- when you called and you said you were coming over , i -- i - i got really excited . rafe : how stupid do you think i am ? [ scene_break ] sharon : you know , you may not believe this , but , um , i 'm glad that you and nick have each other during this horrible time , because i know from experience that going through this alone can be pretty devastating , and the only way that you 'll get through whatever happens is together . phyllis : ( sighs ) sharon : that 's how i 've survived the hell of the past few months , knowing that jack has been there for me and will be there , no matter what happens with me and this baby . it means everything . phyllis : sharon , none of this makes sense . i - i ca n't be in that room with my daughter . they wo n't let me near her . i ca n't even -- i ca n't hold her . i ca n't do anything . sharon : okay , listen to me . you may not be able to -- to hold her in your arms , but you can touch her with your heart . you can be there for summer from a million miles away , because the bond between you two , it goes beyond time and space . it 's forever . phyllis : yeah . sharon : so just forget about the charges against you . everyone knows that you would never do anything like that to your daughter . phyllis : no , no , no . everyone does n't know that . sharon : all that matters now is being there for summer , any way you can . [ scene_break ] noah : i 'm not gon na say i was wrong to want to break up with my mom and dad . daniel : and i 'm not gon na say that you wo n't still be annoyed at the way they act . amber : yeah , i mean , you would n't be normal if you were n't . daniel : yeah , but them not having a legal say is n't gon na keep them from weighing in on who you do or do not date . amber : ( laughs ) i can vouch for that . noah : how do you deal with it -- phyllis being so down on you guys ? daniel : well , mom may not accept amber , but she knows that she makes me happy . and now she 's just kind of come to ... ( chuckles ) deal with it . i do n't know . noah : that 's cool . you guys seem right for each other . daniel : amber never doubted it , even when i broke it off with her . you know , she kind of taught me how to have faith . noah : i hope eden and i will always have that kind of faith in each other . daniel : look , man , if eden is as an amazing girl as you say she is , you 're not gon na have a problem with that , because when you find someone that you can really believe in , you just know it in your gut , right , babe ? amber : right . daniel : yeah .

tammy : what is it with you ? jonathan : what is it with me ? other than the fact that i 'm an incredibly hot hunk of guy that you find impossible to resist ? is that what you meant ? tammy : forget it . i knew this was a waste of time . jonathan : tammy . what do you want ? tammy : i want you to stop trying to hurt everybody all the time . jonathan : what now ? tammy : upstairs , with uncle josh . jonathan : i think i learned my lesson about going upstairs with josh . tammy : you were taunting him about aunt reva and trying to cause problems in their marriage . jonathan : not true . my mom got a little bit drunk and i thought josh should know . tammy : all you wanted him to know is that his wife was dancing with another guy . you probably pushed her into it . jonathan : think about this , tammy . have you ever seen your aunt reva do anything that she did n't want to do ? i did n't think so . i mean , what did you people do before you had me to blame everything on , around here ? tammy : look , you came to springfield to settle a score with aunt reva . a parent / kid thing , okay ? i get that . jonathan : oh , you do ? tammy : yeah , i do . everyone has stuff with their parents , but you do n't stop with reva . you have to torture every single person that she 's connected to . jonathan : like you ? tammy : and my mom . jonathan : no , tammy , you 've got that all wrong . your mom tried to set me up , big - time . tammy : my mom could n't stand what you were doing , to me and to aunt reva . so she came up with this stupid plan , but she was just trying to protect her family . that 's what families do . jonathan : oh , that 's interesting , because i 'm a member of this family , too , and ever since i 've come to this town , all i 've noticed is you all trying to set me up , one after another . josh , cassie . is it your turn ? you want to plant your wallet on me ? or are you going to make like your mom and take off your clothes ? what 's it going to be ? go ahead . take your best shot . sandy : you know , it 's all right . you can go . i can stay here and finish up . josh : no . let 's just keep working . sandy : all right , josh . i told tammy i 'd meet her later . josh : yeah , i know , sandy . that 's why it 's important to get you out of here , right ? sandy : really , josh . i do n't mind . you should go find reva . josh : no . sandy , jonathan is playing a game with me . in fact , you of all people should understand that . sandy : yeah . josh : the thing is , i ca n't possibly let him win . sandy : do you want to keep reva from winning , too ? reva : did i hear my name ? sandy : reva . reva : ah , there it is again and again . all good things , i hope . sandy : what else ? reva : very good things . sandy : what else ? reva : are n't you the cutest ? are you sure you 're not my son ? hiya , bud . boy , you two are here late . josh : we 're working . reva : well , you know what they say : all work and no play ... sandy : actually ... actually , i have a date . reva : a date ? who 's the lucky girl ? sandy : okay , um , i guess we 're finished here ? josh : yeah . we are . thank you , sandy . i appreciate your hard work . sandy : no problem . reva , i will see you later . reva : you two have fun . i hope you have as much fun as i had tonight . sandy : we 'll give it a shot . reva : ( laughs ) oh . is this where you tell me i 'm grounded ? josh : no , i do n't think so . reva : maybe you should tie me to the bed . josh : yeah , reva , that 's a really good idea . reva : ( laughs ) here we go . josh : what ? i did n't say anything . reva : you did n't have to , because you got that look . josh : no look , reva . reva : that look . josh : there was no look . reva : that look when you 're trying so hard not to look disapproving . josh : reva . reva , can we just go home , please ? i really do n't feel like arguing with you . reva : i 'm not arguing . josh : good . let 's just drop it , then . reva : well , i know you , though . you wo n't drop it . and just fyi , all i did tonight was have some fun . a little fun . you remember what that 's like , do n't you , joshua ? josh : yeah , reva , i know what fun is . the problem is that sometimes my idea of fun is n't the same as your idea of fun . reva : oh , well . to each his own . josh : yeah . there she is , the reva shayne that we 've all come to know and love , the one that does n't really care about anybody else as long as she 's having a blast . reva : well , that 's not true . josh : you are pulling away from us , reva , from all of us , except jonathan . now , is that the plan ? because if that 's the plan , i think i have the right to know . coming up on `` guiding light `` ... dinah : what are you doing here ? ross : i need to know about you and edmund . josh : you wanted to punish edmund for tearing your son away from you . now , i can understand that kind of thing coming from jonathan , but not from you . i did n't think you were that cold . reva : well , i 'm not . josh : you did n't use to be , but you are now . reva : i have a little fun tonight and now i 'm pulling away . well , you know what ? maybe you 're the one who 's pulling away ? josh : oh , really ? reva : mm - hmm . josh : how do you figure that ? reva : well , you 're burning the midnight oil here instead of ... josh : instead of what , reva ? what should i be doing ? sitting at home ? waiting for you ? reva : i was going to say you should have been out with me . josh : you told me you needed some time . reva : i did . i did . josh : i gave you some time . reva : i know . and now you 're upset because i 'm not home crocheting lacy doilies . josh : no , reva , that 's not it . i love the fact that you 're wild and crazy . i love the fact that you can be completely unpredictable . reva : well , then why are we fighting ? josh : because right now you 're being entirely predictable ! reva , you want so badly to be a part of your son 's life that you will follow him anywhere . or this thing you did tonight , this fun thing , was that just your idea ? reva : uh , jonathan was there for a while . josh : yeah , i know that . he took great pleasure in coming over here to tell me that . yeah , he came here . special trip , you know ? he told me that i should be concerned about you . reva : well , there was no reason for concern . josh : well , that 's exactly what i told him , but he was bound and determined and he kept on just pushing it , you know ? he wanted to stir things up , the same thing he did with cassie . reva : oh , no . he told cassie about edmund because he did n't think i could . josh : really ? reva : the person you should be blaming is edmund . not jonathan . josh : how about you , reva ? hm ? how about blaming you ? you wanted to punish edmund for tearing your son away from you . now , i can understand that kind of thing coming from jonathan , but not from you . i did n't think you were that cold . reva : well , i 'm not . josh : you did n't use to be , but you are now . open your eyes , reva . you keep thinking you can change jonathan . the fact is , he 's changed you . tammy : i do n't want to set you up . i 've defended you and sympathized with you . jonathan : gee , thanks . tammy : but there is one way that i 'm just like my mom . jonathan : well , do n't keep me in suspense . tammy : the people that i love come first . jonathan : i 've got to get a tissue . i 'm getting all weepy . tammy : stop it . stop making fun of everything . stop wasting everybody 's time . if you hate us so much , then why do you stay in springfield ? jonathan : i could n't leave my mommy . she 'd be very upset . tammy : yes , she would . but would n't that be the perfect way to show her how little you care ? just to take off and say , `` see you later `` ? you do n't want to leave . you want a family . jonathan : oh , yeah . because i 've had such great experience with family and paternal love . father : keep crying , you baby . you trying to embarrass me in front of the guys ? huh ? kid : i 'm sorry . father : come on . who do you think you are , huh ? just shut up and get in the car . jonathan : hey , man . do you want to make a point ? why do n't you make it with me ? edmund : is there anything you need me to do ? dinah : no , i 'm fine . please , go . edmund : i just do n't know why you 're doing this . dinah : i told you . edmund : i know , i know . i 'm giving you the benefit of the doubt , but if you 're not telling me the truth , if this turns out to be some sort of scheme ... dinah : edmund , i told you it 's not . this whole baby thing is a lot to think about . i want you to sleep on it . maybe in the morning , you 'll know how to deal with the situation better . edmund : i want to believe you 're trying to do the right thing . i want to believe we both are . dinah : hey . you 're going to make the right decision . i have faith in you , edmund . life is going to change for all of us . edmund : if this is legitimate , dinah ... dinah : it is . edmund : and i can trust you ... dinah : you can . edmund : then you are giving me something more than i can possibly put into words . but if you 're not , you 'll regret it . this is my child and i will protect it with everything i have . dinah : i 'm counting on that . daddy ? ross : hi . you seem a little surprised . dinah : what are you doing here ? ross : i need to know about you and edmund . dinah : what is this edmund thing ? ross : you know , i saw dr . corey butler tonight . dinah : okay . ross : and he said that you 're no longer seeing each other . dinah : we 're not . ross : and he implied the reason is ... dinah : edmund . ross : yes . now , are you interested in cassie 's husband ? dinah : i ca n't even believe you 'd be asking something like that . ross : oh , please . dinah : you know , i know why you 're asking this . ross : i thought that you would . dinah : was corey 's mother there , by any chance ? ross : oh , yes , she was . dinah : surprise . surprise . she 's the one who told you about this whole edmund thing , right ? ross : mm - hmm . dinah : daddy ? she 's never liked me . she 's never liked me . now she 's spreading rumors about me . ross : is it a lie , dinah ? dinah : you know what , dad ? i 'm tired and i 've had a really long day , but i want you to know that i 'm trying really , really hard . did blake tell you about the talk we had ? ross : oh , yes . yes , she did . dinah : good . i meant every word of it . i do n't want to cause cassie any more trouble . in fact , the truth is , corey has accused me of wanting edmund , and i do n't know why , but his crazy mother is now on the bandwagon , as well . ross : and that 's all there is to it ? dinah : that 's it . ross : all right . i 'll let you get ready for bed . and i 'm sorry we had to have this conversation . dinah : i understand , you know ? it 's ... daddy , it 's ironic . i realized i have something that cassie will never have . ross : what 's that ? dinah : something inside of me . something no one can ever take away . bartender : let me guess . your wife does n't understand you . edmund : actually , she understands me all too well . cassie . god , what have i done ? bad edmund : the only thing you could have done . edmund : go away . you 're the last person i need right now . bad edmund : on the contrary , old boy . i 'm the only person you need . if it were n't for me , you would n't have given our embryos to dinah . edmund : cassie 's mortal enemy . bad edmund : so what ? if it produces a child for you and cassie ? edmund : god , this is insane . it 'll never work . bad edmund : you 're about to lose the only woman you 've ever truly loved . you ca n't just sit back and let that happen . besides , jeffrey o'neill has already moved in for the kill . edmund : that does n't excuse what i 've done . bad edmund : fight fire with fire . edmund : no . that 's what got me in trouble in the first place . god , cassie 's not going to want this baby . not after ... bad edmund : and do n't worry about dinah . edmund : what is that supposed to mean ? bad edmund : we 'll take care of dinah and the baby later . concentrate on cassie , duckie . keep your eye on the prize . tammy : jb , don't . jonathan : you like picking on little kids ? father : who the hell are you ? jonathan : somebody who does n't like watching children getting thrown around . kid : do n't fight , daddy . please . tammy : stop it , both of you . father : get your hands off my kid . jonathan : you stay the hell away from her ! guard : what 's going on here ? father : you ask him . he jumped me for no reason . jonathan : oh , no reason . that 's ... father : i want him arrested . you 're going to jail , pal . tammy : i do n't think so . father : what ? tammy : you call the cops , and i 'm going to have to tell them exactly what i saw . guard : and what exactly did you see , miss ? father : nothing . it 's just a misunderstanding . jonathan : a misunderstanding ? that 's a good word for it . father : come on , let 's go back to the toy store . jonathan : hey . he gives you a hard time , you speak up . okay ? you tell somebody . tammy : it 's okay . thank you for your help . guard : any time . tammy : jonathan ? jonathan : people like that should n't have kids . tammy : it 's okay . jonathan : it 's just that when i see ... tammy : me , too . jonathan : you ? tammy : i was in foster homes . nothing ever really happened , but let 's just say i learned how to go along . how to be invisible . jonathan : yeah . i wish i could have learned that one . tammy : i wish that , too . reva : so , it all comes back to jonathan . josh : yeah . well , does n't that tell you something , reva ? reva : no , not really . the only thing it does is remind me that you 've been against jonathan from the very beginning . josh : well , i think i 've had pretty good reason , do n't you ? but you 're at fault , too , reva . reva : what ? i do n't want to really hear any of this . josh : jonathan 's not the one that filed charges against edmund . that was you , reva . reva : yeah , well , for good reason . jonathan : and jonathan , he 's not the one that was bound and determined to break up cassie and edmund 's marriage . reva : ( exasperated sigh ) me again , huh ? jonathan : he 's not the one who was hell - bent on keeping cassie from having a baby with edmund . that was you . all of that was you . reva : i did all of that for cassie , because i love her . jonathan : yeah , i know you love your sister , reva . i get that . but i also know that every time you look at jonathan , you see the man ... you see the monster who forced you to give your son away . reva : well , how could i not ? josh : i do n't know , reva . you tell me , okay ? because until jonathan came back into our lives , your hatred for edmund seemed to be gone . reva : what do you want me to say ? huh ? that i do n't want him to feel what i felt ? that i ... i do n't want him to know what it 's like to lose a child ? and to feel that ache and that hole that you get in your heart , and that emptiness . because that 's what i felt . i made that happen . i did exactly to him what he did to me , and i did it to punish him . why did n't i see it ? jonathan . jonathan . reva : i let all that guilt and that pain of missing all that time with my son ... oh , god , what have i done ? i thought i was doing this all for a reason , for the right reasons , but i mean , i 'm not even sure anymore . josh : reva , all you can do now is be there for cassie and stand by her , whatever decision she makes . reva : she wants that baby . she wanted not just any baby ; she wanted edmund 's baby ! josh : do you really believe that edmund was that much of a threat to cassie ? reva : not to her . all i knew was that it was a threat , he was a threat to my baby ! but you 're right . you are right , because every time i look at jonathan , i just feel such rage . and i ... i ca n't control myself . i ca n't control myself when i 'm with him , and i become someone that ... someone that i know too well , someone that i have n't been in a very long time . oh , god , i have to do something . josh : no . reva , no . you have to wait . you have to stop . you have to think about what you 're going to do . do n't do anything now that you might regret later . reva : no . josh : okay ? reva : no , no . i know what i have to do already . i know . i have to throw him out . he has to pack up his stuff and get out ! jonathan : well , thank you for stopping me . tammy : it 's hard to see little kids upset . especially ... jonathan : yeah . sandy : tammy ? is everything okay ? jonathan : i 'm fine . you can go . tammy : are you sure ? sandy : hey , i 'm so sorry we missed the movie . i 'll follow you home , hm ? tammy : okay . jonathan : get her home safe . you kids have a good night . next , on `` guiding light `` ... edmund : i just want to find cassie and bring her home . i would imagine you would , too , considering you 're the reason she ran off . reva : oh , you know what ? you are living in a fantasy world . she ran off because of you , edmund . gus : and you hated him for it and you wanted to make him pay . olivia : and that is why i completely understand why harley would shoot him .

( laughs ) blake : no thanks . here . you have something . i had all that popcorn at the movies . ross , did n't you just love that part when he ran down the street after her taxi ? ross : yes , i loved in this movie and in the twenty other movies i 've seen it in . blake : oh , stop it . it made me cry . it was fun . ross : do n't be so shocked . i have my moments , you know . blake : yes , but we have n't had many of them since you know who came home to daddy . ross : you think about it , blake . dinah has n't made that bigger difference in our lives . blake : well , i have to say she seemed half way sincere when she came to me for advice . ross : and i appreciate you speaking to her . means a lot to me . blake : i think it could n't hurt . if i can help stop obsessing with cassie , it 'll make life easier for all of us . doctor : everything 's ready . shall we begin ? jeffrey : doctor , may i have a few minutes alone with my wife , please ? doctor : oh , of course . edmund : thank you . dinah : that was cassie on the phone , was n't it ? edmund : mm - hmm . dinah : what did she say ? edmund : she 's leaving . dinah : where is she going ? edmund : away . she wants to get away from me . dinah : i 'm sorry . edmund : she was with o'neill . i heard his voice . she was with jeffrey o'neill . dinah : oh edmund , do n't let him weasel his way in . he has a way of taking over other people 's lives . edmund : yeah . well , i think i may be too late . dinah : hey , it 's never too late . give cassie a reason to come back and let me help you . edmund : dinah , i think you may be my only chance . doctor ? doctor : we ready ? edmund : yes , i think we are . doctor : mr. and mrs . winslow , if you 'll watch over here you 'll be able to see it happening . the miracle of life beginning for your child .

( laughs ) let 's just say that i did n't slam the door in her face . ross : well , that too . blake : is that ... ? ross : oh , dinah 's boyfriend , dr . butler . blake : and his mother . ross : yes . blake : come on . come on . ross : what are you doing ? what are you doing ? blake : oh , are n't you curious ? let 's go say hello . he could be your future son - in- law . come on . ross : great . blake : dr. butler . ross : well , hello , dr . butler , mrs . butler . i 'm ross marler , dinah 's father . corey : hello , mr . and mrs . marler . blake : i 'm glad we ran into each other . dinah 's been singing your praises . ross : yes . corey : she has ? blake : oh , yes . every time i see her . in fact , ross and i were just saying , would n't it be nice if we all got together for dinner some time . mrs. butler : when pigs fly . corey : mother . mrs. butler : i understand that my corey is n't going to any dinners with that woman , and i use the term loosely . ross : excuse me ? mrs. butler : you heard me . my son and your daughter are no longer seeing each other . corey : mother . mrs. butler : and that is final . that woman should be locked up . ross : what did she do ? dinah : edmund , there 's a baby in there . doctor : let 's not get ahead of ourselves . there are no guarantees , but we 'll stay hopeful . dinah : very hopeful . right ? edmund : right , right . doctor : so , you 'll continue with the progesterone shots tonight , and then we 'll have you back in for a pregnancy test in a week or so . dinah : and we 'll know something that soon ? doctor : mm - hmm . edmund : that 's incredible . doctor : think sticky thoughts , mrs . winslow . dinah : thank you . you 're wishing it was the real mrs . winslow . edmund : i wish for a lot of things , dinah . that does n't make them happen . dinah : we made something happen . we did . and when our baby -- when your baby -- is born , cassie will come back . i promise . edmund : will she ? dinah : don't . do n't start second - guessing yourself now . edmund : oh , please . how can i not ? dinah : well , you can start concentrating on your love for her and your life with your family . edmund : my family . dinah : yeah . i think that 's who you 're doing this for . i actually think it 's pretty noble . edmund : do you ? my god , was i out of my mind ? ! dinah : no . no . you were presented an opportunity and you took it . edmund : no . this was an insane decision , dinah . an insane decision , arguably the worst decision i 've ever made , and i 've made a few . dinah : you were trying to prevent your world from crumbling , edmund . edmund : crum ... how am i possibly ever going to explain this to cassie ? she 's never going to understand it . dinah : you will find the words and she 'll see . edmund : no . she won't . dinah : edmund ... edmund : if there was ever a hope of us reconciling , dinah , i 've just destroyed it . dinah : do n't say that . although , there is another alternative . i mean , i can leave tonight . i can disappear . edmund : what ? dinah : cassie will never know , and you will never have to see me again . edmund : and so you 'd leave town and take the child ? dinah : yeah . yeah , i would , if there is a child . but i told you that i wanted to do something worthwhile with my life . i am tired of all this bitterness and envy that i have . edmund : and so you 'd just go somewhere and live with the child instead ? dinah : yeah . just say the word . look , i offered to do this for you and cassie to give you another chance , but if you do n't think it 'll work ... edmund : i do n't know . i do n't know . ( sighs ) i just ... i only want to do the right thing . i just ... i just ... i do n't know what that is anymore . dinah : you know . you always know , better than most . although i am trying . edmund : dinah , people like us , when we sacrifice , we expect something in return , something . love , respect , something . dinah : that 's what everybody wants . edmund : i want to do the right thing for cassie . dinah : look , edmund , i can leave . i can leave . it 'll be better for everybody . and then you 'll have your options . edmund : no , i think we 've made enough rash decisions for one day . no more . all right , look , get dressed , i 'll drive you home , and we will ... or i will figure out what to do tomorrow . ross : what exactly are you saying about my daughter ? mrs. butler : do you want me to make a list of all the things your sweet little daughter did ? blake : mrs. butler , i am definitely dinah 's biggest critic , but she is trying to change . mrs. butler : people like dinah marler do n't change . there 's nothing good to say about her . ross : i think i can start saying the same thing about your son . do you always let your mother do your talking for you ? mrs. butler : let 's go , corey . corey : sit down , mother . ross : now , what is going on , here ? do you have a problem with dinah ? mrs. butler : what ? corey : i 'm crazy about your daughter , mr . marler , but she does n't really want me . mrs. butler : tell him how you know . corey : it does n't matter . ross : yes , it does matter , and i 'd like to hear it . corey : i would really rather not say . mrs. butler : well , then i 'll say it . corey : no . mrs. butler : your daughter has been trying to lure my son into bed . and gueswhat she called him ? corey : they do n't need to hear this . mrs. butler : she did n't call him sweetheart or darling . she did n't even call him corey . she called him edmund . tammy : hey . jonathan : you following me , you little devil ? tammy : what is it with you ? jonathan : what is it with me ? other than the fact that i 'm an incredibly hot hunk of guy that you find impossible to resist ? is that what you meant ? tammy : forget it . i knew this was a waste of time . jonathan : tammy . what do you want ? tammy : i want you to stop trying to hurt everybody all the time . jonathan : what now ? tammy : upstairs , with uncle josh . jonathan : i think i learned my lesson about going upstairs with josh . tammy : you were taunting him about aunt reva and trying to cause problems in their marriage . jonathan : not true . my mom got a little bit drunk and i thought josh should know . tammy : all you wanted him to know is that his wife was dancing with another guy . you probably pushed her into it . jonathan : think about this , tammy . have you ever seen your aunt reva do anything that she did n't want to do ? i did n't think so . i mean , what did you people do before you had me to blame everything on , around here ? tammy : look , you came to springfield to settle a score with aunt reva . a parent / kid thing , okay ? i get that . jonathan : oh , you do ? tammy : yeah , i do . everyone has stuff with their parents , but you do n't stop with reva . you have to torture every single person that she 's connected to . jonathan : like you ? tammy : and my mom . jonathan : no , tammy , you 've got that all wrong . your mom tried to set me up , big - time . tammy : my mom could n't stand what you were doing , to me and to aunt reva . so she came up with this stupid plan , but she was just trying to protect her family . that 's what families do . jonathan : oh , that 's interesting , because i 'm a member of this family , too , and ever since i 've come to this town , all i 've noticed is you all trying to set me up , one after another . josh , cassie . is it your turn ? you want to plant your wallet on me ? or are you going to make like your mom and take off your clothes ? what 's it going to be ? go ahead . take your best shot . sandy : you know , it 's all right . you can go . i can stay here and finish up . josh : no . let 's just keep working . sandy : all right , josh . i told tammy i 'd meet her later . josh : yeah , i know , sandy . that 's why it 's important to get you out of here , right ? sandy : really , josh . i do n't mind . you should go find reva . josh : no . sandy , jonathan is playing a game with me . in fact , you of all people should understand that . sandy : yeah . josh : the thing is , i ca n't possibly let him win . sandy : do you want to keep reva from winning , too ? reva : did i hear my name ? sandy : reva . reva : ah , there it is again and again . all good things , i hope . sandy : what else ? reva : very good things . sandy : what else ? reva : are n't you the cutest ? are you sure you 're not my son ? hiya , bud . boy , you two are here late . josh : we 're working . reva : well , you know what they say : all work and no play ... sandy : actually ... actually , i have a date . reva : a date ? who 's the lucky girl ? sandy : okay , um , i guess we 're finished here ? josh : yeah . we are . thank you , sandy . i appreciate your hard work . sandy : no problem . reva , i will see you later . reva : you two have fun . i hope you have as much fun as i had tonight . sandy : we 'll give it a shot . reva : ( laughs ) oh . is this where you tell me i 'm grounded ? josh : no , i do n't think so . reva : maybe you should tie me to the bed . josh : yeah , reva , that 's a really good idea . reva : ( laughs ) here we go . josh : what ? i did n't say anything . reva : you did n't have to , because you got that look . josh : no look , reva . reva : that look . josh : there was no look . reva : that look when you 're trying so hard not to look disapproving . josh : reva . reva , can we just go home , please ? i really do n't feel like arguing with you . reva : i 'm not arguing . josh : good . let 's just drop it , then . reva : well , i know you , though . you wo n't drop it . and just fyi , all i did tonight was have some fun . a little fun . you remember what that 's like , do n't you , joshua ? josh : yeah , reva , i know what fun is . the problem is that sometimes my idea of fun is n't the same as your idea of fun . reva : oh , well . to each his own . josh : yeah . there she is , the reva shayne that we 've all come to know and love , the one that does n't really care about anybody else as long as she 's having a blast . reva : well , that 's not true . josh : you are pulling away from us , reva , from all of us , except jonathan . now , is that the plan ? because if that 's the plan , i think i have the right to know . coming up on `` guiding light `` ... dinah : what are you doing here ? ross : i need to know about you and edmund . josh : you wanted to punish edmund for tearing your son away from you . now , i can understand that kind of thing coming from jonathan , but not from you . i did n't think you were that cold . reva : well , i 'm not . josh : you did n't use to be , but you are now . reva : i have a little fun tonight and now i 'm pulling away . well , you know what ? maybe you 're the one who 's pulling away ? josh : oh , really ? reva : mm - hmm . josh : how do you figure that ? reva : well , you 're burning the midnight oil here instead of ... josh : instead of what , reva ? what should i be doing ? sitting at home ? waiting for you ? reva : i was going to say you should have been out with me . josh : you told me you needed some time . reva : i did . i did . josh : i gave you some time . reva : i know . and now you 're upset because i 'm not home crocheting lacy doilies . josh : no , reva , that 's not it . i love the fact that you 're wild and crazy . i love the fact that you can be completely unpredictable . reva : well , then why are we fighting ? josh : because right now you 're being entirely predictable ! reva , you want so badly to be a part of your son 's life that you will follow him anywhere . or this thing you did tonight , this fun thing , was that just your idea ? reva : uh , jonathan was there for a while . josh : yeah , i know that . he took great pleasure in coming over here to tell me that . yeah , he came here . special trip , you know ? he told me that i should be concerned about you . reva : well , there was no reason for concern . josh : well , that 's exactly what i told him , but he was bound and determined and he kept on just pushing it , you know ? he wanted to stir things up , the same thing he did with cassie . reva : oh , no . he told cassie about edmund because he did n't think i could . josh : really ? reva : the person you should be blaming is edmund . not jonathan . josh : how about you , reva ? hm ? how about blaming you ? you wanted to punish edmund for tearing your son away from you . now , i can understand that kind of thing coming from jonathan , but not from you . i did n't think you were that cold . reva : well , i 'm not . josh : you did n't use to be , but you are now . open your eyes , reva . you keep thinking you can change jonathan . the fact is , he 's changed you . tammy : i do n't want to set you up . i 've defended you and sympathized with you . jonathan : gee , thanks . tammy : but there is one way that i 'm just like my mom . jonathan : well , do n't keep me in suspense . tammy : the people that i love come first . jonathan : i 've got to get a tissue . i 'm getting all weepy . tammy : stop it . stop making fun of everything . stop wasting everybody 's time . if you hate us so much , then why do you stay in springfield ? jonathan : i could n't leave my mommy . she 'd be very upset . tammy : yes , she would . but would n't that be the perfect way to show her how little you care ? just to take off and say , `` see you later `` ? you do n't want to leave . you want a family . jonathan : oh , yeah . because i 've had such great experience with family and paternal love . father : keep crying , you baby . you trying to embarrass me in front of the guys ? huh ? kid : i 'm sorry . father : come on . who do you think you are , huh ? just shut up and get in the car . jonathan : hey , man . do you want to make a point ? why do n't you make it with me ? edmund : is there anything you need me to do ? dinah : no , i 'm fine . please , go . edmund : i just do n't know why you 're doing this . dinah : i told you . edmund : i know , i know . i 'm giving you the benefit of the doubt , but if you 're not telling me the truth , if this turns out to be some sort of scheme ... dinah : edmund , i told you it 's not . this whole baby thing is a lot to think about . i want you to sleep on it . maybe in the morning , you 'll know how to deal with the situation better . edmund : i want to believe you 're trying to do the right thing . i want to believe we both are . dinah : hey . you 're going to make the right decision . i have faith in you , edmund . life is going to change for all of us . edmund : if this is legitimate , dinah ... dinah : it is . edmund : and i can trust you ... dinah : you can . edmund : then you are giving me something more than i can possibly put into words . but if you 're not , you 'll regret it . this is my child and i will protect it with everything i have . dinah : i 'm counting on that . daddy ? ross : hi . you seem a little surprised . dinah : what are you doing here ? ross : i need to know about you and edmund . dinah : what is this edmund thing ? ross : you know , i saw dr . corey butler tonight . dinah : okay . ross : and he said that you 're no longer seeing each other . dinah : we 're not . ross : and he implied the reason is ... dinah : edmund . ross : yes . now , are you interested in cassie 's husband ? dinah : i ca n't even believe you 'd be asking something like that . ross : oh , please . dinah : you know , i know why you 're asking this . ross : i thought that you would . dinah : was corey 's mother there , by any chance ? ross : oh , yes , she was . dinah : surprise . surprise . she 's the one who told you about this whole edmund thing , right ? ross : mm - hmm . dinah : daddy ? she 's never liked me . she 's never liked me . now she 's spreading rumors about me . ross : is it a lie , dinah ? dinah : you know what , dad ? i 'm tired and i 've had a really long day , but i want you to know that i 'm trying really , really hard . did blake tell you about the talk we had ? ross : oh , yes . yes , she did . dinah : good . i meant every word of it . i do n't want to cause cassie any more trouble . in fact , the truth is , corey has accused me of wanting edmund , and i do n't know why , but his crazy mother is now on the bandwagon , as well . ross : and that 's all there is to it ? dinah : that 's it . ross : all right . i 'll let you get ready for bed . and i 'm sorry we had to have this conversation . dinah : i understand , you know ? it 's ... daddy , it 's ironic . i realized i have something that cassie will never have . ross : what 's that ? dinah : something inside of me . something no one can ever take away . bartender : let me guess . your wife does n't understand you . edmund : actually , she understands me all too well . cassie . god , what have i done ? bad edmund : the only thing you could have done . edmund : go away . you 're the last person i need right now . bad edmund : on the contrary , old boy . i 'm the only person you need . if it were n't for me , you would n't have given our embryos to dinah . edmund : cassie 's mortal enemy . bad edmund : so what ? if it produces a child for you and cassie ? edmund : god , this is insane . it 'll never work . bad edmund : you 're about to lose the only woman you 've ever truly loved . you ca n't just sit back and let that happen . besides , jeffrey o'neill has already moved in for the kill . edmund : that does n't excuse what i 've done . bad edmund : fight fire with fire . edmund : no . that 's what got me in trouble in the first place . god , cassie 's not going to want this baby . not after ... bad edmund : and do n't worry about dinah . edmund : what is that supposed to mean ? bad edmund : we 'll take care of dinah and the baby later . concentrate on cassie , duckie . keep your eye on the prize . tammy : jb , don't . jonathan : you like picking on little kids ? father : who the hell are you ? jonathan : somebody who does n't like watching children getting thrown around . kid : do n't fight , daddy . please . tammy : stop it , both of you . father : get your hands off my kid . jonathan : you stay the hell away from her ! guard : what 's going on here ? father : you ask him . he jumped me for no reason . jonathan : oh , no reason . that 's ... father : i want him arrested . you 're going to jail , pal . tammy : i do n't think so . father : what ? tammy : you call the cops , and i 'm going to have to tell them exactly what i saw . guard : and what exactly did you see , miss ? father : nothing . it 's just a misunderstanding . jonathan : a misunderstanding ? that 's a good word for it . father : come on , let 's go back to the toy store . jonathan : hey . he gives you a hard time , you speak up . okay ? you tell somebody . tammy : it 's okay . thank you for your help . guard : any time . tammy : jonathan ? jonathan : people like that should n't have kids . tammy : it 's okay . jonathan : it 's just that when i see ... tammy : me , too . jonathan : you ? tammy : i was in foster homes . nothing ever really happened , but let 's just say i learned how to go along . how to be invisible . jonathan : yeah . i wish i could have learned that one . tammy : i wish that , too . reva : so , it all comes back to jonathan . josh : yeah . well , does n't that tell you something , reva ? reva : no , not really . the only thing it does is remind me that you 've been against jonathan from the very beginning . josh : well , i think i 've had pretty good reason , do n't you ? but you 're at fault , too , reva . reva : what ? i do n't want to really hear any of this . josh : jonathan 's not the one that filed charges against edmund . that was you , reva . reva : yeah , well , for good reason . jonathan : and jonathan , he 's not the one that was bound and determined to break up cassie and edmund 's marriage . reva : ( exasperated sigh ) me again , huh ? jonathan : he 's not the one who was hell - bent on keeping cassie from having a baby with edmund . that was you . all of that was you . reva : i did all of that for cassie , because i love her . jonathan : yeah , i know you love your sister , reva . i get that . but i also know that every time you look at jonathan , you see the man ... you see the monster who forced you to give your son away . reva : well , how could i not ? josh : i do n't know , reva . you tell me , okay ? because until jonathan came back into our lives , your hatred for edmund seemed to be gone . reva : what do you want me to say ? huh ? that i do n't want him to feel what i felt ? that i ... i do n't want him to know what it 's like to lose a child ? and to feel that ache and that hole that you get in your heart , and that emptiness . because that 's what i felt . i made that happen . i did exactly to him what he did to me , and i did it to punish him . why did n't i see it ? jonathan . jonathan . reva : i let all that guilt and that pain of missing all that time with my son ... oh , god , what have i done ? i thought i was doing this all for a reason , for the right reasons , but i mean , i 'm not even sure anymore . josh : reva , all you can do now is be there for cassie and stand by her , whatever decision she makes . reva : she wants that baby . she wanted not just any baby ; she wanted edmund 's baby ! josh : do you really believe that edmund was that much of a threat to cassie ? reva : not to her . all i knew was that it was a threat , he was a threat to my baby ! but you 're right . you are right , because every time i look at jonathan , i just feel such rage . and i ... i ca n't control myself . i ca n't control myself when i 'm with him , and i become someone that ... someone that i know too well , someone that i have n't been in a very long time . oh , god , i have to do something . josh : no . reva , no . you have to wait . you have to stop . you have to think about what you 're going to do . do n't do anything now that you might regret later . reva : no . josh : okay ? reva : no , no . i know what i have to do already . i know . i have to throw him out . he has to pack up his stuff and get out ! jonathan : well , thank you for stopping me . tammy : it 's hard to see little kids upset . especially ... jonathan : yeah . sandy : tammy ? is everything okay ? jonathan : i 'm fine . you can go . tammy : are you sure ? sandy : hey , i 'm so sorry we missed the movie . i 'll follow you home , hm ? tammy : okay . jonathan : get her home safe . you kids have a good night . next , on `` guiding light `` ... edmund : i just want to find cassie and bring her home . i would imagine you would , too , considering you 're the reason she ran off . reva : oh , you know what ? you are living in a fantasy world . she ran off because of you , edmund . gus : and you hated him for it and you wanted to make him pay . olivia : and that is why i completely understand why harley would shoot him .Summarize.[/INST]jonathan reports reva 's behavior to josh . reva spends more time with paul and realizes something while looking at photos of her family . ross thanks blake for being understanding about dinah . dinah and edmund go through with the embryo implanting and then edmund wonders what he has done . ross finds out that his daughter may be in love with cassie 's husband and confronts her about it . reva goes to see her husband at the office and comes to a startling realization . tammy sticks up for jonathan when he gets in trouble with a security guard . the two also bond about things that have happened to them in the past .</s>

[ chuckles ] it 's , like , her specialty drink . noah : ha ! you guys had some pretty good memories here . nick : yeah , we did . you know , but i learned last night that you can create new memories and they can sit alongside the old ones . you can feel okay about it . noah : you know what ? i am glad that you and chelsea are taking the plunge . look , everybody can see you guys getting closer . nick : no , there 's no ... plunge . you know , we 're just hanging out , taking things slow . i do n't know where it 's going , if anywhere . i do n't even know when i 'm gon na see her again . noah : how about now ? chelsea : hey . nick : hey . what brings you by ? chelsea : doughnut break . who 's in ? lily : cane just feels like you steamrolled over him and that jill took the cash over their friendship . victoria : i see . so he took his frustrations out on you and your special evening . lily : yeah , it 's just -- it 's a bit awkward now that you 're my boss . [ chuckles ] victoria : you know , lily , i love the work that you 're doing here , and there 's no issue between you and me . lily : what about cane ? i mean , will he still have a place here ? victoria : i let him know how talented i think he is , but i 'm not gon na spend any more time massaging his bruised ego . if your husband 's gon na be on my team , he needs to be on my team . it 's the only way this is gon na work . you both understand that , right ? jordan : excuse me , ladies . lily , ready to roll ? colin : i was gon na pay back every penny with -- with interest , but she found out about it before i could . and , well , it was meant to be a nice surprise . cane : wait , wait . how is it meant to be a surprise ? you did n't think she 'd realize that you 'd gambled her entire life savings away , dad ? colin : i do n't need you berating me . she 's already done a first - class job of that . cane : and this is why she 's in the hospital ? colin : i tried to keep her calm , to walk her through the whole thing , but all of a sudden , i turn around and esther and billy have bundled her off to the emergency room . cane : okay , and they kept her overnight . colin : well , i assume , because she did n't come home . cane : wait , wait , wait . what do you mean , you assume ? you have called to check on her condition ? what is wrong with you ? ! colin : i have been calling constantly ! nobody will talk to me ! i 'm beside myself with worry ! cane : this is why no one wants anything to do with you , especially jill ! colin : i - i - i got to make this right . cane : oh ! colin : i got to pay back every penny so that she can go off and buy jack 's shares of fenmore 's . cane : okay , and how are you gon na do that ? colin : well ... that 's where you come in , my boy . jill : forget about colin ? billy , how am i supposed to do that when he took every cent i had in the world ? billy : stop , stop , okay ? the only thing that matters is your health . jill : yeah , well , there 's not a thing wrong with my health . not one single thing . esther : jill , you are in intensive care . jill : yeah , apparently so . which is kind of insane considering that it 's heartburn . there must be some sort of mix - up here . billy : hi . dr. lang : how 's our patient this morning ? jill : uh ... dr. lang : dr. lang . i was on the cardiologist on call when you came in . jill : see , what i need is a g.i . specialist . i do n't mean to be rude , but what am i doing here ? i feel perfectly well . billy : she does n't remember a whole lot right now . dr. lang : i 'm not surprised . you were in and out for a while and sedated during the procedure . jill : well , see , i ... [ chuckles ] i 'm sure you 're really confident , okay ? but the problem here is not my heart . it 's my stomach . and i think i know my own body , okay ? so , please , when can i go home ? dr. lang : it wo n't be today , i 'm afraid . jill : why not ? dr. lang : ms. atkinson ... jill : not that name , please . jill . jill . dr. lang : when you came in last night , your ekg showed that you were in the throes of myocardial infarction . you had a heart attack . jill : what ? no . that -- no , that ca n't be . billy : doctor , can you explain it to her the way that you explained it to us , please ? dr. lang : you have heart disease , jill . plaque 's been building up in the walls of your arteries for several years . the vessels get stiff after awhile , and in your case , several of them ruptured . as your body attempted to repair the damage , clots formed . your left anterior descending artery had just closed up with 100 % blockage . you had another one that was blocked at 80 % . your heart muscle could n't get enough oxygen . now , i 'm hopeful that eventually you 'll be able to regain full function . you 're lucky . this artery 's been nicknamed the widowmaker . it was a good thing your son and esther brought you in when they did or else this could have been fatal . jill : oh , my god . dr. lang : you have a couple more arteries that are blocked at about 60 % . uh , we 'll keep a close eye on them , but they were n't serious enough to stent . jill : stent ? dr. lang : we placed two medicated stents inside your heart , two mesh tubings that opened up the artery , and it 's to keep the blood flowing . billy : when she does , uh , come home , how do we -- how do we treat this ? jill : no , no , no , no ! stop ! stop this ! this is ridiculous ! you are making it sound like i 'm at death 's door ! i had an incident because i lost all of my money ! my stupid husband betrayed me ! anybody would feel sick after that ! esther : jill , come on . you can deny this all you want , but -- billy : no , she ca n't , esther . this is a wake - up call , and she needs to listen . jill : excuse me ! i am right here in this room ! do not treat me like some frail , old woman ! i had a bad moment ! it passed ! i 'm fine now , and i am going home ! dr. lang : jill , calm down . just breathe . nick : so how did we rate a visit from the doughnut fairy ? chelsea : designer 's block . i hit a wall . nick : that sounds traumatic . chelsea : yeah , just a chocolate glazed doughnut with sprinkles -- it was the only way that i could ease my pain . nick : well , just know if it ever happens again , i 'm here for you . chelsea : okay . i 'll have to remember that . nick : [ chuckles ] chelsea : although i did have so much fun last night that i 'm thinking i 'll just ditch the whole designer thing and i 'll just go back to bartending . noah : whoa , hold on there . are you trying to put me out of a job ? according to dad here , you , uh , you got some pretty mad skills . chelsea : oh , really ? nick : oh , that is legit . you should taste her dirty martini , man . chelsea : i do n't know . i try not to brag . nick : careful . the humble ones are the ones you got to watch out for . noah : that 's it . it 's on , you and me . let 's go . right now . nick : uh - oh . chelsea : [ chuckles ] jill : all right , get these things off me . dr. lang : jill . jill : i need to get dressed and go home . billy : mom , you 're not going anywhere . jill : no , the hell i 'm not . billy : mom , will you stop being so stubborn ? esther : come on , jill . let me help you get back into bed . jill : touch me , you are a dead woman , esther ! stop it ! you are all overreacting . now , it 's not like i had chest pains and keeled over ! dr. lang : i understand why you 're having trouble accepting what happened . women 's symptoms are quite often very different than men 's symptoms . yesterday , when you came in , you were complaining about your jaw aching and you had shortness of breath . billy : she was nauseated , too . esther : and perspiring . jill : oh , 'cause you keep the heat on at full blast , esther ! dr. lang : believe it or not , these are typical coronary symptoms for women . some have the kind of chest pains that men experience , but many more do n't . jill : i just -- i thought it was acid reflex . i 've been having that a lot . esther : maybe it 's been your heart all along . dr. lang : it 's a mistake that we see every single day . symptoms can mimic each other . digestive problems , panic attacks , stomach pains , chest pains , feeling like you 're tired all the time -- all these can be present with the heart issues . that 's why it 's crucial to get to a doctor right away and make sure that you know what 's going on . heart disease is the leading cause of death for women in this country . it 's nothing to play around with . billy : bottom line , though , doc -- she 's gon na be okay ? dr. lang : she 'll be able to get back to her usual activities very soon , but with time and some lifestyle adjustments , she will probably be able to live a fairly normal life . billy : that 's good to know . dr. lang : jill , have you had any other symptoms ? pain in your shoulder , arm , or back ? jill : uh , no , no . no pain anywhere . dr. lang : and now 's your stress level ? is it higher than usual ? jill : uh ... dr. lang : you 're gon na have to avoid that if you want to stay well . and what about family history ? is there anything else that i should be aware of ? billy : her father died of a massive heart attack . esther : and there could be history on her mother 's side , too , but jill does n't really know that part of her family . jill : yeah , esther . you 've done enough talking . please , could you get me some coffee or something ? esther : oh , no , no . no coffee . how about soothing herbal tea ? jill : esther , whatever . just go and get it , please . dr. lang : if you ever have any symptoms like you did last night , i want you to call 911 immediately . do not drive yourself . do not call a taxi . time is critical . emts can cut through traffic . they can start treatment in the ambulance . they can call ahead with your vital signs , and you can go to the head of the triage line . when you 're having a stroke or a heart attack , minutes count . billy : that 's good advice . right , mom ? that 's good advice . thank you , doctor . dr. lang : you 're welcome . now , jill , i have you booked today for an echocardiogram . it 's going to be non - invasive . it 'll take about an hour , and it should tell us how the stents are working . and in a few weeks , we 'll get you on a treadmill and do a stress test . jill : no . no more tests . no . billy : mom . jill : i 've got too much to do . billy , you know i have to call my banker right away ! billy : there 's no wheeling and dealing right now . you need to take care of yourself . jill : no , billy ! dr. lang : your son is right . jill : no ! you ca n't force me to stay here ! neither one of you can force me ! billy : mom . jill : no ! i have stuff to do , and i 'm gon na do it ! do n't ! do n't ! do n't ! billy : doctor , please , could i , uh , could i just have a minute with her , please ? dr. lang : yes . jill : [ sobs ] cane : you want me to lend you money ? have you lost your mind ? ! colin : ethan , i swear i 'll pay you back . cane : dad , if i had the money , i would have used it to buy brash & sassy . colin : okay , well , then , i guess i got to get the money elsewhere . the next time i see jill , i got to tell her she 's solvent . cane : all right , you do n't get it , do you , all right ? even if you came up with a truckload full of cash , it 's not gon na erase what you did 'cause it 's not about the money ! it 's about your marriage and the trust you broke ! colin : okay , let 's go . cane : wait , wait . where are we going ? colin : the hospital to see jill so that i can grovel for mercy . cane : [ sighs ] [ door opens ] chelsea : still got time to back out . noah : excuse me . i know my way around a blender , lady . nick : okay , we 're making three drinks each . you will be judged on creativity and quality . agreed ? both : agreed . chelsea : my burmese banshee is going to take you down . noah : excuse me . the only reason why you 're talking is you have n't tried my genoa city fizz . nick : okay , enough with the talking . let 's take our marks . hands on the bar . get ready . mix . jordan : there 's some good shots . definitely workable . dazzling smile . beautiful face . lily : is there a problem ? jordan : no . it 's just ... that playfulness that you have that i love so much , it 's not there . as we were shooting , i noticed that you were n't really being yourself . what 's going on , lily ? lily : [ sighs ] i - i i do n't know if i can keep doing this job . victoria : well , the deal is done . it 's official . victor : what ? ! victoria : yeah , i 'm the sole owner of brash & sassy . victor : congratulations . victoria : thanks . i 'm so glad i took your advice . victor : well , you know , your mother and i realize how much this company meant to you . nikki : well , it always has been your baby . victoria : yeah , i wish everyone understood that . victor : i 'm sure cane was not too happy about it . victoria : well , when cane heard the news , he totally unloaded on me . victor : really ? victoria : i think lily 's worried about him . nikki : and how did billy take it ? victor : oh , sweetheart , who cares what that guy thinks ? victoria : well , billy was very supportive at first , and then things got a little complicated . victor : really ? nikki : how do you mean ? victoria : apparently he did n't like the way that i went around buying the company , so he accused me of being like dad -- cold and unfeeling . victor : oh , really ? who the hell cares what he thinks ? so , now that jill is out of your hair , how about dumping billy boy , as well ? billy : look , i know you do n't want any more tests . jill : no , and i do n't want you to tell anybody about this . do not breathe a word of it . billy : okay , i wo n't . jill : 'cause this is my private medical information . it 's nobody 's business . billy : okay , that 's fine , but you are following through with this ultrasound . jill : no , i 'm not . billy : yes , you are . jill : no . billy : you heard the doctor . you need this test . jill : [ sighs ] billy : you should want as much information about your condition as possible . when was the last time you had a physical ? jill : i do n't know , billy . september when i had the acid reflex . billy : well , what if it was n't acid reflux ? what if it was your heart then ? did you follow up with your doctor ? jill : i did n't feel the need to . billy : mom . [ door opens ] jill : you have nerve coming in here . billy : get out . now . cane : he insisted on coming 'cause he cares about your mom , so just be civil . colin : jill , i 've been so worried about you . i 'll do anything i can to make this right . please . just let me stay for a little while . jill : [ sobs ] lily : cane 's just having a hard time accepting that he has to report to victoria now . and it 's really eating away at him . jordan : is he gon na walk ? lily : i do n't know , but if he does , how can i stay here and not feel disloyal to my husband ? jordan : you signed on as the brand ambassador . are you saying that your husband will expect you to resign in solidarity ? lily : no , but , i mean , can you imagine how uncomfortable it 'd make cane feel to have me stay here working for victoria ? jordan : does this job make you happy ? lily : yeah . very . jordan : great modeling jobs do n't come around that often . no one should have to give up on their dreams for someone else 's insecurities . victoria : i 'm not gon na cut billy loose just because we argued . i can handle a little conflict . victor : sweetheart , calling you cold and unfeeling , that 's hardly a business disagreement . victoria : when a woman in charge makes a decision , she 's considered a bitch , and that 's just how it is . but if a man does it , he 's strong and he 's making a tough decision . nikki : you are right . there is definitely a double standard . things are better , but there 's still a ways to go . victor : yeah , well , i 've seen that myself , and i think it 's totally unfair . nikki : really ? victor : yeah . nikki : well , if i recall , you 've been guilty of that same bias , darling . victor : no ! nikki : for instance , when you have valued her brothers ' contributions to newman over hers . victoria : oh , well , you know , whatever happened , it 's behind us now , right ? victor : wait a minute . are you calling me chauvinist ? nikki : no , darling . victor : well ... nikki : i 'm not . victoria : ah ! this is good tea . colin : jill , please say something . jill : i know what you 'd like me to say . that i am moved by your deep regret and your sincere desire to make amends . colin : i - i would like that . jill : you know what i 'd like ? i 'd like a husband who respects me . colin : but i do . jill : no , you do n't . or you would n't lie to me . you would n't use me like your personal atm machine . you think you can just come in here and say a few sweet words and i 'm gon na forgive you and forget ? billy : you stay down . that 's enough . colin , get out . just get out . cane : can i stay and talk to her ? it 's okay , it 's okay . billy : mom ? cane : can i stay ? [ door closes ] hey . jill : [ sobs ] cane : how are you ? how you doing really ? how you doing ? jill : [ sighs ] god . did colin tell you what he did to me ? cane : yeah . jill : yeah . cane : i 'm , uh , appalled . i 'm not surprised , you know , 'cause he ca n't resist temptation , can he ? jill : no . anyway , i got -- i got a little distressed when i was telling him off , you know , but you know how i 've been running myself ragged . but lesson learned , you know ? i 'm gon na take it easy from now on . i 'm okay now . cane : okay . jill : yeah . cane : then why you , uh , why you in the icu ? jill : god , i do n't know . these stupid doctors , they see a hangnail and they flip out . but it 's okay . i promise i 'm gon na manage my stress better . cane : i 'm sorry that my dad 's such a jackass . you know that , right ? jill : it 's not your fault , baby . cane : no , it kind of is . you know , guilt by association . jill : you know , besides colin , i really only have my -- myself to blame . cane : why are you saying that ? jill : because , god help me , i love him so much . and i knew what he was like when i married him . [ sobbing ] and i knew he was n't gon na change . but , cane , i never thought he would do it to me . billy : what is your problem , huh ? why are you here ? my mother threw you outside in the freezing cold buck naked ! do n't you think that 's a pretty good sign that it 's over ? ! colin : i 've been up all night wondering what 's going on in there ! billy : it 's not your concern anymore , colin . colin : could n't you have done the decent thing and called me even if she did n't want to ? billy : are you kidding me ? after what you pulled , you want me to go behind my mother 's back ? ! colin : i screwed up . but i love that woman . i would never do anything to hurt her ! billy : my mother had a heart attack because of you . colin : whoa , whoa , whoa , wait . heart attack ? how ? billy : i mean , you saw her . did you even think about the consequences of your actions ? colin : [ sighs ] okay . what happens to her now ? what has the doctor said ? billy : cardiologist said she needs to run more tests . most important thing for her right now is to stay calm . so unless you want to make things worse , you 'll get the hell out of here . now . colin . what did you -- chelsea : blood orange martini with blended pulp and a hint of freshly grated ginger root . noah : ginger 's overpowering . never touch the stuff . chelsea : at least my creations do n't need paper umbrellas to make them stand out . noah : the customers love those . chelsea : nick knows quality . i 'm gon na win . noah : second place . maybe . nick : okay . well , this one is amazing . the ginger is very solid . keeps it from being too sweet . mmm . but this yellow jacket that noah made , there 's a taste in there i ca n't quite put my finger on . it 's a secret ingredient , right ? noah : elderflower liqueur . nick : i did n't even know we had that . noah : a couple regulars , it 's the only thing they drink . i keep it on hand for them . chelsea : okay , okay . enough of the small talk . who won ? nick : it 's delicious . [ sighs ] it 's a tie . chelsea : ohh ! noah : come on ! you are such a wuss ! chelsea : no , no . i think your father is just a very smart , very diplomatic man . noah : okay . you suck up to him . got some deliveries to put away . come on ! [ both laugh ] chelsea : well , that was not what i was expecting when i walked in here , but , um , that was really fun . kind of like last night . i , uh , hope we can do something again sometime soon . nick : well , what are you ... doing tonight ? you could come to a newman family dinner if you want . chelsea : that 's , um , not exactly what i had in mind . victor : you just accused me of discriminating against my own daughter . nikki : well , have n't you ? victoria : okay , look , let 's not do this now , okay ? victor : look , if you and victoria think that 's the case , then i better set the record straight , all right ? nikki : well , please do . by all means . victor : she and i have had our differences , but no more or less than i 've had differences with our sons . nikki : you do n't think that you have held victoria to a higher standard ? victor : if i have , then it 's because i believe she 's very bright and very capable . and i always encouraged you , have n't i , to stand on your own two feet ? victoria : yes , i mean , he was also very hard on adam , mom , and he does expect a lot out of abby . i 've seen it with my own eyes . nikki : all right , guys . okay , i stand corrected . you 're an equal opportunity task master . victor : you 're damn right i am . victoria : great . good . i 'm so glad that we cleared the air . victor : yeah , you bet . so am i . anyway , i need to go to a business meeting , and before i do , let me tell you something . victoria : what is it ? victor : do n't let anyone talk critically about what you just did . i 'm proud that you reclaimed your own company . you showed them . i like that . cane : hey . lily : hi . cane : hey . lily : i 'm glad you texted . cane : yeah , um ... i thought we should maybe , you know , meet up . lily : uh , do you want a coffee ? cane : uh , no , i 'm good . i 'm good . lily : okay . cane : can we sit down ? lily : yeah . cane : have a chat ? lily : thank you . cane : yeah . lily : look , um ... i really do n't like how we left things last night , and i - i do n't like going to bed mad . and it was really upsetting for me when i woke up and you were n't there . are you -- are you trying to avoid me or ... ? cane : no , no , no . no , i 'm not trying to avoid you . i - i got this text from my dad . um , jill 's in the hospital , so ... lily : what ? is she okay ? cane : well , she says it 's just stress and that she 's fine , but , you know , i ca n't really say the same thing for their marriage . lily : god , what did colin do now ? cane : [ chuckles ] he decided to help himself to her money . lily : how much ? all of it ? cane : yeah . lily : you 've got to be kidding . cane : that 's my dad . lily : god , poor jill . she must be in shock . is that why she went to the hospital ? cane : yeah , apparently so . um , i just want to let you know why i was n't there this morning when you woke up . and there 's things i want to say to you . lily : i 'm listening . cane : i 'm sorry for the way i acted last night , okay ? i 'm sorry . it was our anniversary , and i let this work situation just ruin everything , and i 'm ashamed of the way i spoke to you . and i want to let you know you deserve better . and i want to ask you if you would forgive me for it . lily : yeah , i should have been more sensitive to what you were going through . cane : i should have been able to control my anger better . it 's my fault . it 's not your fault . lily : okay , it 's not always possible . look , i 'm -- i 'm sorry i told you to leave the restaurant without me . cane : do n't worry about that . it 's in the past .
jill woke up in the icu with billy and esther by her side . she learned that she 'd had a heart attack and that she 'd received two stents . the doctor was hopeful that jill would make a full recovery . jill insisted that the incident was caused by the stress of losing her money and that she was fine now . the doctor told jill that she 'd have to avoid stress to stay healthy . jill made billy promise not to tell anyone about this . colin called jill 's cell and left a message begging her to let him know she was okay . colin told cane that he was the reason jill was in the hospital . cane blasted colin for gambling jill 's life savings away . colin asked cane to lend him the money to pay jill back . cane did n't have the money , and he told his father that repaying the money would n't repair the broken trust . jill was incensed when colin showed up at the hospital . billy kicked colin out of her room . jill told cane that she still loved colin , and she knew he would n't change , but she never thought he 'd do this to her . billy blamed colin for jill 's heart attack . billy told jill that she had to stop neglecting her health . nick was thrilled by how well the underground was doing , in noah 's hands . noah told nick that he was skipping the newman family dinner . noah was supportive when nick revealed that he 'd gone out on a date with chelsea . nick remembered moments he 'd shared with sage . chelsea dropped by with donuts . chelsea and noah had a drink - mixing contest . chelsea accepted nick 's invitation to join him at the family dinner .
<s>[INST] ( we may be missing the end ) jill : [ groggily ] why are you looking at me like that ? esther : like what ? jill : like i 'm in a box and you 're at a funeral . billy : just here to annoy you , mom . jill : go away , you two . go away . i do n't need a pair of vultures hovering over me . billy : we 're on escape duty , making sure you do n't bolt . esther : we had to practically drag you to the e.r . last night . you looked terrible . jill : oh , thank you , esther . but as you can plainly see , i 'm perfectly all right . billy : you do n't remember ? jill : i do n't know . they must have given me drugs or something . [ scoffs ] i have acid reflex . give me some medicine so i can get out of here . you , esther , please give me the call button . i can call the nurse and ask her when i can leave . billy : why do n't we wait and talk to the doctor first ? jill : why would we do that , billy ?

[ doorbell rings ] cane : all right , what 's so urgent i had to race right over here ? colin : it 's , uh , it 's jill . cane : yeah ? well , she 's the last person i 'm in the mood to see . colin : she 's in the hospital . cane : what ? why ? what happened ? is she all right ? why are n't you at the hospital with her ? colin : because i 'm kind of the reason that she 's there . victoria : it 's the first time we 've had that -- lily , hey ! good morning . lily : hey , good morning . victoria : hey , do n't you have a photo shoot at jordan 's studio ? lily : uh , not for a while . i 'm -- i 'm looking for cane . victoria : i have n't seen him yet . lily : oh , okay . victoria : i assumed that he would be in late this morning since you guys were out late last night celebrating your anniversary . lily : um , actually , it , uh , it was n't much of a celebration . noah : hey . nick : hey . i am just going over these numbers you 've been pulling in lately . this is ridiculous . noah : glad you 're pleased . nick : i 'm ecstatic ! this is amazing , dude ! hey , did your grandfather get ahold of you about tonight ? noah : oh , yeah , i got the invite , but , um , i 'm gon na pass . i have to get things ready for the open mic night . nick : okay . noah : that 's it ? seriously ? no , like , lecture on family or i have to put forth more of an effort or ... ? nick : it 's just dinner . i 'm sure you have other commitments . i really appreciate all the time you 've been putting into this place . noah : you 're in a good mood . nick : yeah , i guess i am . i had a pretty solid time last night . noah : oh , yeah ? well , what 'd you do ? nick : i was with chelsea . noah : you were with chelsea ? like -- like as friends , right ? was it more ? nick : [ sighs ] nikki : hey . at last he emerges from his study . victor : well , i had to clear some things off the desk so i can be free later . nikki : yes , our special dinner . i ca n't wait . victor : i hope you do n't mind that i invited the rest of the family . nikki : i do n't understand . did n't we just have a family gathering ? why the sudden need for another one ? victor : i just thought it would be nice to get the whole family together again . i mean , that 's all . nikki : no special reason ? victor : why ? should there be one ? nikki : i 'm just wondering , uh , is there some sort of special announcement ? victor : no , not really . nikki : well , i have to say , ever since you decided to step back from the company , i 've been waiting to see what comes next . victor : hmm . nikki : is it possible you 're finally ready to make an announcement about your retirement ? victor : if and when something that earth - shattering happens , you 're the first one to know . noah : so , your first date , and on valentine 's day ? some pretty heavy stuff . nick : it was n't like , you know , some fancy dinner date . we ended up getting stuck here most of the night , actually . noah : doing what ? nick : well , mark called in sick , and there was n't bartending help until after 10 : 00 . noah : wait , wait , wait , wait . you worked ? what kind of date is that ? nick : it was actually fun . chelsea even pitched in and tended bar . you should have seen her . noah : no , she did n't . nick : yes , she was amazing . it 's like she 'd been here forever . noah : [ chuckles ] well , it must have reminded you of sage , like the first time she helped you behind the bar . nick : silk panties . noah : sorry . what was that ? nick : yeah , silk panties . [ chuckles ] it 's , like , her specialty drink . noah : ha ! you guys had some pretty good memories here . nick : yeah , we did . you know , but i learned last night that you can create new memories and they can sit alongside the old ones . you can feel okay about it . noah : you know what ? i am glad that you and chelsea are taking the plunge . look , everybody can see you guys getting closer . nick : no , there 's no ... plunge . you know , we 're just hanging out , taking things slow . i do n't know where it 's going , if anywhere . i do n't even know when i 'm gon na see her again . noah : how about now ? chelsea : hey . nick : hey . what brings you by ? chelsea : doughnut break . who 's in ? lily : cane just feels like you steamrolled over him and that jill took the cash over their friendship . victoria : i see . so he took his frustrations out on you and your special evening . lily : yeah , it 's just -- it 's a bit awkward now that you 're my boss . [ chuckles ] victoria : you know , lily , i love the work that you 're doing here , and there 's no issue between you and me . lily : what about cane ? i mean , will he still have a place here ? victoria : i let him know how talented i think he is , but i 'm not gon na spend any more time massaging his bruised ego . if your husband 's gon na be on my team , he needs to be on my team . it 's the only way this is gon na work . you both understand that , right ? jordan : excuse me , ladies . lily , ready to roll ? colin : i was gon na pay back every penny with -- with interest , but she found out about it before i could . and , well , it was meant to be a nice surprise . cane : wait , wait . how is it meant to be a surprise ? you did n't think she 'd realize that you 'd gambled her entire life savings away , dad ? colin : i do n't need you berating me . she 's already done a first - class job of that . cane : and this is why she 's in the hospital ? colin : i tried to keep her calm , to walk her through the whole thing , but all of a sudden , i turn around and esther and billy have bundled her off to the emergency room . cane : okay , and they kept her overnight . colin : well , i assume , because she did n't come home . cane : wait , wait , wait . what do you mean , you assume ? you have called to check on her condition ? what is wrong with you ? ! colin : i have been calling constantly ! nobody will talk to me ! i 'm beside myself with worry ! cane : this is why no one wants anything to do with you , especially jill ! colin : i - i - i got to make this right . cane : oh ! colin : i got to pay back every penny so that she can go off and buy jack 's shares of fenmore 's . cane : okay , and how are you gon na do that ? colin : well ... that 's where you come in , my boy . jill : forget about colin ? billy , how am i supposed to do that when he took every cent i had in the world ? billy : stop , stop , okay ? the only thing that matters is your health . jill : yeah , well , there 's not a thing wrong with my health . not one single thing . esther : jill , you are in intensive care . jill : yeah , apparently so . which is kind of insane considering that it 's heartburn . there must be some sort of mix - up here . billy : hi . dr. lang : how 's our patient this morning ? jill : uh ... dr. lang : dr. lang . i was on the cardiologist on call when you came in . jill : see , what i need is a g.i . specialist . i do n't mean to be rude , but what am i doing here ? i feel perfectly well . billy : she does n't remember a whole lot right now . dr. lang : i 'm not surprised . you were in and out for a while and sedated during the procedure . jill : well , see , i ... [ chuckles ] i 'm sure you 're really confident , okay ? but the problem here is not my heart . it 's my stomach . and i think i know my own body , okay ? so , please , when can i go home ? dr. lang : it wo n't be today , i 'm afraid . jill : why not ? dr. lang : ms. atkinson ... jill : not that name , please . jill . jill . dr. lang : when you came in last night , your ekg showed that you were in the throes of myocardial infarction . you had a heart attack . jill : what ? no . that -- no , that ca n't be . billy : doctor , can you explain it to her the way that you explained it to us , please ? dr. lang : you have heart disease , jill . plaque 's been building up in the walls of your arteries for several years . the vessels get stiff after awhile , and in your case , several of them ruptured . as your body attempted to repair the damage , clots formed . your left anterior descending artery had just closed up with 100 % blockage . you had another one that was blocked at 80 % . your heart muscle could n't get enough oxygen . now , i 'm hopeful that eventually you 'll be able to regain full function . you 're lucky . this artery 's been nicknamed the widowmaker . it was a good thing your son and esther brought you in when they did or else this could have been fatal . jill : oh , my god . dr. lang : you have a couple more arteries that are blocked at about 60 % . uh , we 'll keep a close eye on them , but they were n't serious enough to stent . jill : stent ? dr. lang : we placed two medicated stents inside your heart , two mesh tubings that opened up the artery , and it 's to keep the blood flowing . billy : when she does , uh , come home , how do we -- how do we treat this ? jill : no , no , no , no ! stop ! stop this ! this is ridiculous ! you are making it sound like i 'm at death 's door ! i had an incident because i lost all of my money ! my stupid husband betrayed me ! anybody would feel sick after that ! esther : jill , come on . you can deny this all you want , but -- billy : no , she ca n't , esther . this is a wake - up call , and she needs to listen . jill : excuse me ! i am right here in this room ! do not treat me like some frail , old woman ! i had a bad moment ! it passed ! i 'm fine now , and i am going home ! dr. lang : jill , calm down . just breathe . nick : so how did we rate a visit from the doughnut fairy ? chelsea : designer 's block . i hit a wall . nick : that sounds traumatic . chelsea : yeah , just a chocolate glazed doughnut with sprinkles -- it was the only way that i could ease my pain . nick : well , just know if it ever happens again , i 'm here for you . chelsea : okay . i 'll have to remember that . nick : [ chuckles ] chelsea : although i did have so much fun last night that i 'm thinking i 'll just ditch the whole designer thing and i 'll just go back to bartending . noah : whoa , hold on there . are you trying to put me out of a job ? according to dad here , you , uh , you got some pretty mad skills . chelsea : oh , really ? nick : oh , that is legit . you should taste her dirty martini , man . chelsea : i do n't know . i try not to brag . nick : careful . the humble ones are the ones you got to watch out for . noah : that 's it . it 's on , you and me . let 's go . right now . nick : uh - oh . chelsea : [ chuckles ] jill : all right , get these things off me . dr. lang : jill . jill : i need to get dressed and go home . billy : mom , you 're not going anywhere . jill : no , the hell i 'm not . billy : mom , will you stop being so stubborn ? esther : come on , jill . let me help you get back into bed . jill : touch me , you are a dead woman , esther ! stop it ! you are all overreacting . now , it 's not like i had chest pains and keeled over ! dr. lang : i understand why you 're having trouble accepting what happened . women 's symptoms are quite often very different than men 's symptoms . yesterday , when you came in , you were complaining about your jaw aching and you had shortness of breath . billy : she was nauseated , too . esther : and perspiring . jill : oh , 'cause you keep the heat on at full blast , esther ! dr. lang : believe it or not , these are typical coronary symptoms for women . some have the kind of chest pains that men experience , but many more do n't . jill : i just -- i thought it was acid reflex . i 've been having that a lot . esther : maybe it 's been your heart all along . dr. lang : it 's a mistake that we see every single day . symptoms can mimic each other . digestive problems , panic attacks , stomach pains , chest pains , feeling like you 're tired all the time -- all these can be present with the heart issues . that 's why it 's crucial to get to a doctor right away and make sure that you know what 's going on . heart disease is the leading cause of death for women in this country . it 's nothing to play around with . billy : bottom line , though , doc -- she 's gon na be okay ? dr. lang : she 'll be able to get back to her usual activities very soon , but with time and some lifestyle adjustments , she will probably be able to live a fairly normal life . billy : that 's good to know . dr. lang : jill , have you had any other symptoms ? pain in your shoulder , arm , or back ? jill : uh , no , no . no pain anywhere . dr. lang : and now 's your stress level ? is it higher than usual ? jill : uh ... dr. lang : you 're gon na have to avoid that if you want to stay well . and what about family history ? is there anything else that i should be aware of ? billy : her father died of a massive heart attack . esther : and there could be history on her mother 's side , too , but jill does n't really know that part of her family . jill : yeah , esther . you 've done enough talking . please , could you get me some coffee or something ? esther : oh , no , no . no coffee . how about soothing herbal tea ? jill : esther , whatever . just go and get it , please . dr. lang : if you ever have any symptoms like you did last night , i want you to call 911 immediately . do not drive yourself . do not call a taxi . time is critical . emts can cut through traffic . they can start treatment in the ambulance . they can call ahead with your vital signs , and you can go to the head of the triage line . when you 're having a stroke or a heart attack , minutes count . billy : that 's good advice . right , mom ? that 's good advice . thank you , doctor . dr. lang : you 're welcome . now , jill , i have you booked today for an echocardiogram . it 's going to be non - invasive . it 'll take about an hour , and it should tell us how the stents are working . and in a few weeks , we 'll get you on a treadmill and do a stress test . jill : no . no more tests . no . billy : mom . jill : i 've got too much to do . billy , you know i have to call my banker right away ! billy : there 's no wheeling and dealing right now . you need to take care of yourself . jill : no , billy ! dr. lang : your son is right . jill : no ! you ca n't force me to stay here ! neither one of you can force me ! billy : mom . jill : no ! i have stuff to do , and i 'm gon na do it ! do n't ! do n't ! do n't ! billy : doctor , please , could i , uh , could i just have a minute with her , please ? dr. lang : yes . jill : [ sobs ] cane : you want me to lend you money ? have you lost your mind ? ! colin : ethan , i swear i 'll pay you back . cane : dad , if i had the money , i would have used it to buy brash & sassy . colin : okay , well , then , i guess i got to get the money elsewhere . the next time i see jill , i got to tell her she 's solvent . cane : all right , you do n't get it , do you , all right ? even if you came up with a truckload full of cash , it 's not gon na erase what you did 'cause it 's not about the money ! it 's about your marriage and the trust you broke ! colin : okay , let 's go . cane : wait , wait . where are we going ? colin : the hospital to see jill so that i can grovel for mercy . cane : [ sighs ] [ door opens ] chelsea : still got time to back out . noah : excuse me . i know my way around a blender , lady . nick : okay , we 're making three drinks each . you will be judged on creativity and quality . agreed ? both : agreed . chelsea : my burmese banshee is going to take you down . noah : excuse me . the only reason why you 're talking is you have n't tried my genoa city fizz . nick : okay , enough with the talking . let 's take our marks . hands on the bar . get ready . mix . jordan : there 's some good shots . definitely workable . dazzling smile . beautiful face . lily : is there a problem ? jordan : no . it 's just ... that playfulness that you have that i love so much , it 's not there . as we were shooting , i noticed that you were n't really being yourself . what 's going on , lily ? lily : [ sighs ] i - i i do n't know if i can keep doing this job . victoria : well , the deal is done . it 's official . victor : what ? ! victoria : yeah , i 'm the sole owner of brash & sassy . victor : congratulations . victoria : thanks . i 'm so glad i took your advice . victor : well , you know , your mother and i realize how much this company meant to you . nikki : well , it always has been your baby . victoria : yeah , i wish everyone understood that . victor : i 'm sure cane was not too happy about it . victoria : well , when cane heard the news , he totally unloaded on me . victor : really ? victoria : i think lily 's worried about him . nikki : and how did billy take it ? victor : oh , sweetheart , who cares what that guy thinks ? victoria : well , billy was very supportive at first , and then things got a little complicated . victor : really ? nikki : how do you mean ? victoria : apparently he did n't like the way that i went around buying the company , so he accused me of being like dad -- cold and unfeeling . victor : oh , really ? who the hell cares what he thinks ? so , now that jill is out of your hair , how about dumping billy boy , as well ? billy : look , i know you do n't want any more tests . jill : no , and i do n't want you to tell anybody about this . do not breathe a word of it . billy : okay , i wo n't . jill : 'cause this is my private medical information . it 's nobody 's business . billy : okay , that 's fine , but you are following through with this ultrasound . jill : no , i 'm not . billy : yes , you are . jill : no . billy : you heard the doctor . you need this test . jill : [ sighs ] billy : you should want as much information about your condition as possible . when was the last time you had a physical ? jill : i do n't know , billy . september when i had the acid reflex . billy : well , what if it was n't acid reflux ? what if it was your heart then ? did you follow up with your doctor ? jill : i did n't feel the need to . billy : mom . [ door opens ] jill : you have nerve coming in here . billy : get out . now . cane : he insisted on coming 'cause he cares about your mom , so just be civil . colin : jill , i 've been so worried about you . i 'll do anything i can to make this right . please . just let me stay for a little while . jill : [ sobs ] lily : cane 's just having a hard time accepting that he has to report to victoria now . and it 's really eating away at him . jordan : is he gon na walk ? lily : i do n't know , but if he does , how can i stay here and not feel disloyal to my husband ? jordan : you signed on as the brand ambassador . are you saying that your husband will expect you to resign in solidarity ? lily : no , but , i mean , can you imagine how uncomfortable it 'd make cane feel to have me stay here working for victoria ? jordan : does this job make you happy ? lily : yeah . very . jordan : great modeling jobs do n't come around that often . no one should have to give up on their dreams for someone else 's insecurities . victoria : i 'm not gon na cut billy loose just because we argued . i can handle a little conflict . victor : sweetheart , calling you cold and unfeeling , that 's hardly a business disagreement . victoria : when a woman in charge makes a decision , she 's considered a bitch , and that 's just how it is . but if a man does it , he 's strong and he 's making a tough decision . nikki : you are right . there is definitely a double standard . things are better , but there 's still a ways to go . victor : yeah , well , i 've seen that myself , and i think it 's totally unfair . nikki : really ? victor : yeah . nikki : well , if i recall , you 've been guilty of that same bias , darling . victor : no ! nikki : for instance , when you have valued her brothers ' contributions to newman over hers . victoria : oh , well , you know , whatever happened , it 's behind us now , right ? victor : wait a minute . are you calling me chauvinist ? nikki : no , darling . victor : well ... nikki : i 'm not . victoria : ah ! this is good tea . colin : jill , please say something . jill : i know what you 'd like me to say . that i am moved by your deep regret and your sincere desire to make amends . colin : i - i would like that . jill : you know what i 'd like ? i 'd like a husband who respects me . colin : but i do . jill : no , you do n't . or you would n't lie to me . you would n't use me like your personal atm machine . you think you can just come in here and say a few sweet words and i 'm gon na forgive you and forget ? billy : you stay down . that 's enough . colin , get out . just get out . cane : can i stay and talk to her ? it 's okay , it 's okay . billy : mom ? cane : can i stay ? [ door closes ] hey . jill : [ sobs ] cane : how are you ? how you doing really ? how you doing ? jill : [ sighs ] god . did colin tell you what he did to me ? cane : yeah . jill : yeah . cane : i 'm , uh , appalled . i 'm not surprised , you know , 'cause he ca n't resist temptation , can he ? jill : no . anyway , i got -- i got a little distressed when i was telling him off , you know , but you know how i 've been running myself ragged . but lesson learned , you know ? i 'm gon na take it easy from now on . i 'm okay now . cane : okay . jill : yeah . cane : then why you , uh , why you in the icu ? jill : god , i do n't know . these stupid doctors , they see a hangnail and they flip out . but it 's okay . i promise i 'm gon na manage my stress better . cane : i 'm sorry that my dad 's such a jackass . you know that , right ? jill : it 's not your fault , baby . cane : no , it kind of is . you know , guilt by association . jill : you know , besides colin , i really only have my -- myself to blame . cane : why are you saying that ? jill : because , god help me , i love him so much . and i knew what he was like when i married him . [ sobbing ] and i knew he was n't gon na change . but , cane , i never thought he would do it to me . billy : what is your problem , huh ? why are you here ? my mother threw you outside in the freezing cold buck naked ! do n't you think that 's a pretty good sign that it 's over ? ! colin : i 've been up all night wondering what 's going on in there ! billy : it 's not your concern anymore , colin . colin : could n't you have done the decent thing and called me even if she did n't want to ? billy : are you kidding me ? after what you pulled , you want me to go behind my mother 's back ? ! colin : i screwed up . but i love that woman . i would never do anything to hurt her ! billy : my mother had a heart attack because of you . colin : whoa , whoa , whoa , wait . heart attack ? how ? billy : i mean , you saw her . did you even think about the consequences of your actions ? colin : [ sighs ] okay . what happens to her now ? what has the doctor said ? billy : cardiologist said she needs to run more tests . most important thing for her right now is to stay calm . so unless you want to make things worse , you 'll get the hell out of here . now . colin . what did you -- chelsea : blood orange martini with blended pulp and a hint of freshly grated ginger root . noah : ginger 's overpowering . never touch the stuff . chelsea : at least my creations do n't need paper umbrellas to make them stand out . noah : the customers love those . chelsea : nick knows quality . i 'm gon na win . noah : second place . maybe . nick : okay . well , this one is amazing . the ginger is very solid . keeps it from being too sweet . mmm . but this yellow jacket that noah made , there 's a taste in there i ca n't quite put my finger on . it 's a secret ingredient , right ? noah : elderflower liqueur . nick : i did n't even know we had that . noah : a couple regulars , it 's the only thing they drink . i keep it on hand for them . chelsea : okay , okay . enough of the small talk . who won ? nick : it 's delicious . [ sighs ] it 's a tie . chelsea : ohh ! noah : come on ! you are such a wuss ! chelsea : no , no . i think your father is just a very smart , very diplomatic man . noah : okay . you suck up to him . got some deliveries to put away . come on ! [ both laugh ] chelsea : well , that was not what i was expecting when i walked in here , but , um , that was really fun . kind of like last night . i , uh , hope we can do something again sometime soon . nick : well , what are you ... doing tonight ? you could come to a newman family dinner if you want . chelsea : that 's , um , not exactly what i had in mind . victor : you just accused me of discriminating against my own daughter . nikki : well , have n't you ? victoria : okay , look , let 's not do this now , okay ? victor : look , if you and victoria think that 's the case , then i better set the record straight , all right ? nikki : well , please do . by all means . victor : she and i have had our differences , but no more or less than i 've had differences with our sons . nikki : you do n't think that you have held victoria to a higher standard ? victor : if i have , then it 's because i believe she 's very bright and very capable . and i always encouraged you , have n't i , to stand on your own two feet ? victoria : yes , i mean , he was also very hard on adam , mom , and he does expect a lot out of abby . i 've seen it with my own eyes . nikki : all right , guys . okay , i stand corrected . you 're an equal opportunity task master . victor : you 're damn right i am . victoria : great . good . i 'm so glad that we cleared the air . victor : yeah , you bet . so am i . anyway , i need to go to a business meeting , and before i do , let me tell you something . victoria : what is it ?

cane : no , no , no . no , i 'm not trying to avoid you . i - i got this text from my dad . um , jill 's in the hospital , so ... lily : what ? is she okay ? cane : well , she says it 's just stress and that she 's fine , but , you know , i ca n't really say the same thing for their marriage . lily : god , what did colin do now ? cane : [ chuckles ] he decided to help himself to her money . lily : how much ? all of it ? cane : yeah . lily : you 've got to be kidding . cane : that 's my dad . lily : god , poor jill . she must be in shock . is that why she went to the hospital ?

bill insists that he knows it is asking a lot of steffy , but until the minister says hope and liam are man and wife , then there is a chance for her . so she has to get on that plane and go to hope 's wedding . he begs her not to give up even though she says it is too soon , her emotions are too raw . she does not want to even ride on the same jet and see the happy look in their eyes much less see them at the wedding . hope also explains to liam that she just saw bill and she is trying to convince him that she is not that horrible of a person and perhaps in time he will accept her . she also tells him that she asked steffy to stand up along with her mother . liam is shocked and ca n't believe she did that . brooke says goodbye to katie and wishes she were going to italy but because of the pregnancy she understands why she ca n't go . liam and hope kiss before they head to the airport . she comments that the next time she walks through those doors that she will be married .

[ scene_break ] bill : i 'm proud of you . you gave hope an ultimatum . you handled yourself like a pro , like a spencer . liam : uh , yeah , but i mean , it was necessary . no wyatt , no quinn -- that 's necessary . bill : okay . i know you feel that way right now . wyatt is your brother . does n't have to happen right away , but once you and hope are married and settled down , i 'm sure you 'll be more open to having him around . liam : i hope you 're right . bill : liam , wyatt said that he would respect your marriage . so once you 've said your vows , i 'm sure a lot of the suspicion is gon na dissipate . not just for hope , but for wyatt , as well . liam : wait , what suspicion ? bill : that you 're still in love with steffy . what ? [ scene_break ] steffy : okay . in your `` scenario , `` i go back to l.a. , back with liam , hope gets together with wyatt , and suddenly your company 's in very good shape . quinn : [ chuckles ] okay , my focus is on my son . liam , who does n't even work for forrester , wants to take away my son 's job and my son 's future , all because he 's threatened , because he sees the connection between hope and wyatt . look , i heard about your connection to liam , your marriage . i can see what he sees in you . look at you 're . you 're beautiful . you 're smart . you 're talented . he must be missing you as much as you 're missing him . you can have him back . steffy : but i left . quinn : i do n't understand . you obviously still have feelings for him . what are you doing here in -- in paris ? steffy : he 's not -- quinn : wait ! you can go back . you can -- steffy : no . he is not mine . i lost him . just like i lost our baby . [ scene_break ] eric : what about wyatt and quinn ? i mean , how do you feel about them ? what about their business ? hope : i feel bad . i do n't want to hurt anybody . but we 've -- we 've already given them a lot of exposure , and i have no doubt that they 'll be fine . eric : what 's liam afraid of ? the two of you are getting married . wyatt does n't present any kind of a threat . does he ? hope : no . no , of course not , you know . but why -- why ask for trouble ? eric : so you do n't trust yourself around wyatt . hope : i do n't want the temptation . and seeing him at work every day is ... it 's really for the best this way . it is . i mean , liam and i , we 're getting married . we 're finally gon na start our life together . and after waiting so long , we just ... i ca n't let anything interfere . [ scene_break ] liam : dad , what are you saying ? bill : you still have feelings for steffy . you always will . why else would wyatt think he can make a move on hope in the first place ? and more importantly , why did she let him ? but you have proven that your feelings for hope are just as -- as strong and worth fighting for . you 'll get married , and these concerns about steffy will -- will fade away . liam : [ scoffs ] maybe . bill : have you talked to her ? liam : talked to who ? bill : steffy . liam : you know , i ca n't have steffy in my life and then turn around and start making demands about hope having wyatt in hers . i - i promised hope that steffy would no longer be in our lives , and trust me , she 's -- she 's gon na hold me to that . steffy 's a soft spot for hope . i mean , too many bad experiences there . i 'm not -- i 'm not gon na do that to her again .

[ sniffles ] thank you so much . [ beep ] steffy : it worked .

[ scene_break ] bill : i 'm proud of you . you gave hope an ultimatum . you handled yourself like a pro , like a spencer . liam : uh , yeah , but i mean , it was necessary . no wyatt , no quinn -- that 's necessary . bill : okay . i know you feel that way right now . wyatt is your brother . does n't have to happen right away , but once you and hope are married and settled down , i 'm sure you 'll be more open to having him around . liam : i hope you 're right . bill : liam , wyatt said that he would respect your marriage . so once you 've said your vows , i 'm sure a lot of the suspicion is gon na dissipate . not just for hope , but for wyatt , as well . liam : wait , what suspicion ? bill : that you 're still in love with steffy . what ? [ scene_break ] steffy : okay . in your `` scenario , `` i go back to l.a. , back with liam , hope gets together with wyatt , and suddenly your company 's in very good shape . quinn : [ chuckles ] okay , my focus is on my son . liam , who does n't even work for forrester , wants to take away my son 's job and my son 's future , all because he 's threatened , because he sees the connection between hope and wyatt . look , i heard about your connection to liam , your marriage . i can see what he sees in you . look at you 're . you 're beautiful . you 're smart . you 're talented . he must be missing you as much as you 're missing him . you can have him back . steffy : but i left . quinn : i do n't understand . you obviously still have feelings for him . what are you doing here in -- in paris ? steffy : he 's not -- quinn : wait ! you can go back . you can -- steffy : no . he is not mine . i lost him . just like i lost our baby . [ scene_break ] eric : what about wyatt and quinn ? i mean , how do you feel about them ? what about their business ? hope : i feel bad . i do n't want to hurt anybody . but we 've -- we 've already given them a lot of exposure , and i have no doubt that they 'll be fine . eric : what 's liam afraid of ? the two of you are getting married . wyatt does n't present any kind of a threat . does he ? hope : no . no , of course not , you know . but why -- why ask for trouble ? eric : so you do n't trust yourself around wyatt . hope : i do n't want the temptation . and seeing him at work every day is ... it 's really for the best this way . it is . i mean , liam and i , we 're getting married . we 're finally gon na start our life together . and after waiting so long , we just ... i ca n't let anything interfere . [ scene_break ] liam : dad , what are you saying ? bill : you still have feelings for steffy . you always will . why else would wyatt think he can make a move on hope in the first place ? and more importantly , why did she let him ? but you have proven that your feelings for hope are just as -- as strong and worth fighting for . you 'll get married , and these concerns about steffy will -- will fade away . liam : [ scoffs ] maybe . bill : have you talked to her ? liam : talked to who ? bill : steffy . liam : you know , i ca n't have steffy in my life and then turn around and start making demands about hope having wyatt in hers . i - i promised hope that steffy would no longer be in our lives , and trust me , she 's -- she 's gon na hold me to that . steffy 's a soft spot for hope . i mean , too many bad experiences there . i 'm not -- i 'm not gon na do that to her again . [ scene_break ] quinn : i - i 'm sorry . i did n't know you and liam had a child . steffy : i was pregnant . it was n't planned . but we had a few good months . baby growing . and then one day i took it all away . quinn : you ? steffy : i had a motorcycle . liam had his concerns , so of course i did n't ride . until there was traffic on pch , and i just wanted to get home . so i took the bike . that was the end . quinn : he left you ? steffy : no , no , no . he would never do that . it was -- it was me . there was complications at the hospital . but these things happen , you know . one day , you 're pregnant , and the next , you 're barren . quinn : oh , god . steffy : liam would be such a great father . it 's ... it was all i kept thinking about , how being married to me would just hold him back . quinn : did you ever think about adoption ? steffy : no , no . i - i could n't . i - i just was n't in the frame of mind to start thinking about other options . and i still ca n't . i just had to get away ... and give liam a chance to have a family . experience what it 's like to have a family , go through the whole pregnancy and pick out the names , paint the nursery . hold his wife 's hand in the delivery room . i was n't able to give him that , but hope could . so you really think i want to go back to l.a. ? you think i want to fight for liam when he 's so close to having that family ? a wife who can actually give him what i ca n't ?

when eliza goes missing , meg turns her terror and anger on barbara assuming that she was a party to helping paul kidnap her daughter . barbara assures her that she would never be involved . the police are called , as jack takes lead on the case . however , jack finds no leads of paul being seen by anyone . meg feels guilty that she started this ball rolling when she threatened to take eliza away from paul to hurt him and now he is hurting her back . dusty supports meg . josie leaves a goodbye letter for dusty and heads out of town . she is stunned to find paul in her backseat ordering her to drive or he will shoot her , as he holds something to her shoulder under a blanket . josie tries to talk some sense into paul , but he believes there is no turning back and meg left him with no choice . josie learns that paul was never holding a gun on her . a frantic barbara calls paul , who finally picks up , and begs him to come home . he wo n't come back and orders her not to tell the police she talked with him or she will never see him or eliza again . carly , craig and johnny hang out after parker goes to a friend 's house for a ‘sleepover . ' liberty is supposedly doing the same thing , but little do their parents know , thanks to craig 's money they are going to see metallica in chicago . when janet runs into the parent of the girl liberty is supposed to be with , she finds out that liberty set her up . janet goes to speak with carly , as they worry about their kids being out overnight together . craig admits to giving parker money and him mentioning the concert . carly and janet are furious , as craig offers to go find them and carly goes with him . janet calls jack with news of what their children have been up to , as jack is furious . later , craig and carly bring home the kids , as jack , janet and carly light into them and ground them both . jack is furious with craig , as is carly . carly witnesses a sweet moment between him and johnny , but she ca n't get past what craig did again involving parker and she and craig fight ; she thinks jack was right and he is n't good to be around her son . craig pleads his case explaining he is trying to be a friend to parker when he pushes his parents away , but carly wo n't have it and orders him out of her life . meg continues to frantically worry about eliza when the tunnels under fairwinds are another dead end . dusty assures meg that paul would never hurt his baby ; he knows paul loves eliza . josie and paul wind up hiding out at tv station where josie is exhausted ; paul tells her to go to sleep and they will figure things out when she wakes up . dusty reads josie 's letter and calls her ; he is sorry she felt she had to leave , but he wonders if she has news about where paul took eliza . paul sees the call , from dusty , hears the message and deletes it all while josie is sleeping nearby .

[ scene_break ] bo : where did the killer take the cheerleader , marcie ? marcie : commissioner , the punishment was always supposed to fit the crime . the people that we pretended to kill -- they were always supposed to meet the end that we thought they deserved , but this story broke the pattern that we had set up . before that , all of the murders were supposed to look like accidents so that the police would n't pursue them as homicides . john : now the killers are breaking the pattern by moving away from the book and apparently targeting people in my life . bo : the cops in jersey have cleared most of marcie 's friends from high school . john : who 's missing from the list ? bo : scott randall , alan smithie . john : what do they have to do with the club ? marcie : scott was n't really into it . i mean , he -- he quit really early ? john : what about this guy alan ? marcie : oh , alan was really out there , i mean , even for our group . he was -- you know , there was n't any other goth kids in school , and he was into weapons , and he wanted to find kids in their `` essence `` -- i do n't know , that 's what he called it . bo : what does that mean ? marcie : i do n't know , it was like he -- he was really big on , like , you know , having his victims use certain props or wearing certain costumes . john : like the cheerleaders ' outfits ? marcie : oh , my god , that 's it . i think alan -- alan was the one who came up with the cheerleader murders . bo : davis , see if there 's anybody in jersey that can get us a recent photograph of an alan smithie . marcie : it ca n't be alan . he ca n't be one of the killers . john : what are you talking about ? why not ? marcie : because he 's dead .

jill : well , the way they were those reporters ! jack : yeah , what about them ? jill : well , the way they were harassing you . i mean , i was appalled . i - i should have said something . jack : it 's been like this nonstop . they 've got this notion that devon was drinking at the benefit and that 's what caused the accident . jill : is that what caused it ? jack : no , the blood work showed he was not intoxicated . nowhere near . but trying selling that to the rabid press . what i hate is what this is doing to the foundation -- undermining our credibility , all the good work we 've been doing . i 'm so sorry . i know how frustrating it must be . the trouble is , we know who 's to blame , do n't we ?

jack : devon was acting out with a vehicle . he could have gone home , he could have come here . he could have made any number of decisions that were less destructive than driving 100 miles an hour on a country road . jill : my god , you 're still on her side . jack : no , there are no sides here , jill . jill : no , why are you defending this woman when she has done such vicious things ? jack : [ groans ] jill : no , mariah is just her latest victim . look , i 'm gon na ask you something really serious . what is it about her that inspires in you men such blind loyalty , that you can forgive her anything ?

hilary : devon , there 's -- there 's no way for us to know for sure . devon : but it 's possible . hilary : yeah , it was a really powerful sports car , so , yeah , it 's possible that you did n't know how fast you were going . i mean , you just bought it an hour earlier . devon : and why were n't you in the car with me ? hilary : i told you . i was working and you wanted to take your new car out for a test drive . you know , can we -- can we talk about this a little later ? because , um , i 'm gon na call the agency and see what time we can be expecting the nurse . devon : that does n't make any sense , though . why would n't i just wait for you to be done working so we could come home together ?

and , look -- you and j.t . , you did a great job . he 's a good kid . you should be proud of yourself . lily : i really think that devon 's doctor sent him home too early . jill : because hilary was there playing the doting wife , no doubt . now she controls access to him . you may not be able to speak to him for weeks . lily : look , trust me , i am as disgusted as you are , and i would love nothing more than for devon 's eyes to be opened up about her , but i feel like all i do these days is just root for his marriage to fail . jill : well , it should fail after everything she 's done . lily : well , i 'm sure a lot of people say the same thing about me after i cheated on cane . jill : please , do not compare yourself to her . lily : no , i 'm not . what -- [ scoffs ] what i 'm trying to say is that i 'm spending too much energy on this . devon knows how i feel and so does everyone else . i 'm sure he 's sick of me bashing his wife , and frankly , i 'm -- i 'm sick of it , too . jill : so , what ? you 're giving up ? you 're giving up helping devon see the light ? lily : he 's a grown man . he needs to figure it out for himself . billy : we got such a small window , i just do n't see how this is gon na happen . no , i appreciate it , helen . i really do . okay . thanks . bye . victoria : oh , no . what happened ? billy : she 's not coming . victoria : what do you mean , she 's not coming ? she has to come . the whole campaign depends on her . billy : it 's impossible . her flight got cancelled . she 's stuck in new york . so we 're just gon na have to postpone the photo shoot . victoria : no , we ca n't postpone the photo shoot . george has got one day . he 's booked until spring ! we ca n't , the whole campaign depends on him ! billy : you just said the model 's the most important thing , now you 're saying it 's george . victoria : it 's both of them , billy -- both of them ! billy : okay , well , i hate to break it to you , but we can find another photographer to take pictures , and we can find somebody else to pose in the pictures . victoria : well , i hate to break it to you , but we need to find somebody now , today . the whole point was to roll out before valentine 's day . billy : yeah , i know that , victoria . victoria : okay , well , then we need to find a model now , or we can just push this whole thing back until summer . [ cell phone rings ] billy : great , this is all i need to deal with right now . hi , mother . jill : hi , honey . i 'm just calling to check on who the photo shoot is going . billy : it 's not , actually . our model had to cancel , and i know we have to get this done today , so vicki and i are gon na through the files and try and find somebody new on short notice . jill : well , now ... i may have an idea . hilary : devon , you really need to get your rest . devon : honey , i 'm fine , okay ? i 'm more than up for a visitor . you just said the nurse is on her way . i 'm serious , if you want to go to the studio , do it . cane : yeah , it 's cool . you can go , i can wait with him till the nurse gets here . do n't worry about it . devon : he 's cool . cane : yeah . hilary : okay . sure . cane : okay . sure . hilary : guess it 'll give me a chance to update the troops , right ? devon : yeah . tell them i said hi . hilary : okay . cane . cane : see you . devon : drive safe , honey . cane : yeah . hilary : yep . cane : you know you gave us a scare , right ? devon : i gave myself a scare . [ sighs ] cane : how you feeling ? devon : i 'm feeling better every day . cane : yeah ? devon : mm - hmm . cane : you know , considering what happened , you kind of look , uh ... you kind of look all right . [ chuckles ] devon : i just ca n't believe how damn stupid i was , driving that fast . cane : so you , uh ... you remember anything , or ... ? devon : i do , actually . yeah , this morning , i had a flash when i was drifting in and out of sleep . cane : yeah ? details or anything like that ? devon : it was just me being behind the wheel , driving like a crazy person , but that 's ... that 's all i saw . that 's it . cane : it 's okay . it does n't matter . all that matters now is that you heal , you know ? take care of yourself . devon : how does an entire night just disappear from someone 's brain like that ? cane : do n't worry about it , all right ? do n't stress yourself out . just let it go . it 's all right . devon : i 'm trying not to . hilary 's been filling in some blanks for me . cane : really ? devon : yeah . cane : what 'd she , uh ... like what ? devon : well , i remember that i was alone in the car . so i was wondering why she was n't with me . cane : you asked her that . what 'd she say ? devon : yeah , she said that i wanted to test the car out after i got it , and we agreed that we 'd meet back here that night , which obviously did n't happen . but at least i got to kiss my wife at midnight , so ... cane : hilary told you that , huh ? devon : yeah . why ? devon : cane , if you know something , man , please ... cane : i do n't know anything . i do n't . devon : well , i assume that you and lily were at the benefit , right ? cane : yeah , we were there . i was dressed in my penguin suit , looking handsome . devon : thank you . i hope that neil and jack do n't , uh , think i 'm gon na ask for the money back , since i wrecked the car . cane : you know , i get this feeling that , uh , everyone who wanted that car , including me , kind of , you know -- we stopped bidding once we , uh , saw you wanted it and put that big bid down , so do n't worry about that . devon : look , i know that , um , stitch said that everyone should walk on eggshells around me so i do n't get agitated , but i 'm -- i 'm really struggling to remember things . so , if you can help me , i 'd appreciate it . cane : listen , devon , you know , um ... there 's not a lot of people who would have survived that accident , you know ? so i think it 's , you know , that 's what you should focus on . let the other stuff go . do n't worry about that , okay ? devon : i know . i 've been thinking about that a lot lately . cane : yeah , i know . me , too . could have you lost you , man . glad i did n't . you know , i think there 's a lesson here that you should learn from this , and that 's that life is short . we should thank god , you know . these things can happen any second . roz : website 's a zoo , and the phones -- people are calling nonstop wanting to know what 's going on . hilary : roz , i already told you how to respond . we 're grateful that devon is recovering after his car hit a patch of black ice . roz : okay , i do n't know how to put this delicately , but , um ... questions have been raised about whether he was ... impaired in some way . hilary : are you asking me if devon was drunk ? roz : it was new year 's eve . hilary : they tested devon . his blood alcohol level was well below the legal limit . roz : is that just what we 're saying , or is that also true ? hilary : it 's the truth . roz : great . so much easier that way . oh , and there also have been questions about the circumstances leading up to -- hilary : i told you what to say about that , too . roz : okay , then that 's what we 'll go with . hilary : there 's no way , okay ? i 'm not ready to come back yet . devon just got home and he still needs me , so i 'm here . i 'm gon na sign some paychecks , pick up my messages , that 's it . roz : all right . i 'll leave you to it . hilary : [ sighs ] jack : hey . i was hoping i might find you here . hilary : jack . what a nice surprise . jack : so , i hear devon is released from the hospital , a lot sooner than people expected . hilary : yeah , he is . it 's good . we 're really happy to have him home . jack : i 'm sure you are . how you doing ? hilary : i 'm hanging in there . jack : neil told me about devon 's memory loss . i , uh -- i 'm sure that can nerve - racking . hilary : if you 're asking me if i told devon about that night , the answer is no . i 'm sure that neil explained why . jack : he did . i ca n't help but wonder if it is n't a little more shocking to hear it from someone else , though . you know how hard it is to keep a secret in this town . there were a lot of people at that benefit . if one person had their camera out and video'ed the two of you arguing and decided to post it online , or , i do n't know , just let it slip accidentally ... hilary : or on purpose ? jack : ... or on purpose . if it were me , that 's not the way i 'd want the person i love to find out . victoria : we 're also gon na probably want some shots where she 's , you know , looking back over her shoulder , maybe . a little bit like this ? billy : yeah , some of it without the product in - hand . jill : okay , everybody , your model 's here . billy : hey ! victoria : oh , lily ! oh , my gosh . thank you so much for dropping everything to do this for us . lily : yeah , of course . my pleasure . billy : yeah , just have fun with it . you 're gon na be great for us . lily : i will do my best . victoria : i assume that jill filled you in on everything that we 're looking for ? lily : she did , yeah , but , i mean , just so you guys know , it 's been a while . are you sure that you want me for this ? billy : absolutely . victoria : yes . billy : you 're one of the best models jabot ever had . lily : [ laughs ] well , i do n't know about that , but thank you . jill : well , anyway , okay , the photographer 's here , and since we 're behind schedule , shall we ? victoria : yes , george and i will walk you over to the studio and we can get you into your wardrobe . lily : okay ... victoria : you 're gon na be great . lily : [ giggles ] thanks . hannah : katie , please stop kicking your brother . katie : no ! johnny : what are you doing ? reed : i was just watching a video that my friend posted online . hannah : your mom told me you have a paper to finish ? i was an english major if you need any help . reed : i 'm all set . um , you can go back to babysitting . i 'm gon na go upstairs and practice my guitar . hannah : okay , see ya ! what do you guys want to do ? should we play a game , or ... ? johnny : yeah ! hannah : you want to play a game ? okay , which one should we play ? should we do `` guess who ? `` hilary : what if devon never forgives me ? not that tripping mariah was that terrible ... okay , fine , it was pretty terrible , especially on top of everything else i 've pulled . but that night , devon said that he had it with me . and whatever good was left in our marriage , it was n't worth it to devon anymore . jack : people say a lot of things in the heat of the moment . he was angry , he was furious . but he 'll get past this . hilary : you did n't get past it with phyllis . jack : i forgave a lot of things . sleeping with billy was n't one of them . besides , this is not about that kind of betrayal . hilary : i do n't know , jack . i do n't know if i could tell devon the truth . opening myself up like that -- i do n't think i can risk it . jack : i know you 're scared . hilary : jack -- it feels like a gift , okay ? the clock has been turned back , and now devon is in love with me again , and i need this time . i need this time so i can show him how much we mean to each other and how much i love him . jack : telling your husband the truth is a leap of faith , i get that . i do , i understand all the danger there . i think it 's worth the risk . you 're gon na have to make that leap of faith eventually anyway . maybe not today , maybe not tomorrow . but as soon as stitch says it 's okay , you need to come straight with your husband . in my hard - earned experience , it may be your only shot at saving your marriage . billy : okay , let 's , uh -- let 's take a little five - minute break for a second here . let me talk to you for a second . lily : look , i 'm sorry . i know i 'm bombing . i have n't done this in a really long time . billy : first of all , you are not bombing , so there 's no need to apologize . just a little bit tight because it 's been a while . lily : yeah , you 're lying to me . billy : no , i 'm not . what 's not working is my stupid idea , okay ? so forget everything that i told you about how this is supposed to work . it 's not about the product at all . this is about you and the feeling that men are gon na have when they respond to the ad , featuring you , okay ? all those guys that do n't have confidence when it comes to women , you 're gon na give them the confidence to approach an exotic creature like yourself , and possibly have a moment , a moment that they never expected . lily : so , in other words ... billy : so , in other words , make all those tongue - tied dudes -- make them feel that they have to come up and talk to you and meet you . nobody in the world does that better than you , okay ? lily : [ giggles ] okay . billy : you good ? lily : yes . billy : all right . you look amazing . lily : thanks . billy : okay , so come on . [ clears throat ] okay . all right . devon : what matters to me is making the most of that new beginning you mentioned . look under your pillow . hilary : hmm . devon : open it . hilary : it 's my eternity ring . i ca n't believe you kept it . devon : i would have kept it forever , and that 's how long i want to keep you . hilary curtis ... will you marry me ? hilary : okay , let me know if you need anything else . devon : hey . how 's the nurse doing ? hilary : she got your room all set up . devon : nice . hilary : i hope that cane did n't tire you out . devon : no , he actually gave me a lot to think about . especially how lucky i am to be alive . hilary : that 's good . that 's what we should focus on . that 's what we should be grateful for . devon : absolutely . how was the , uh , studio ? hilary : roz has everything under control , it 's all good . devon : that 's fantastic . [ groaning ] [ sighs ] hilary : hey . devon : hey . hilary : i want to thank you . for suggesting that i go . devon : yeah . hilary : it gave me a lot of time to think . devon : about what ? hilary : us . mostly . ever since you 've been home , i 've just -- i 've been trying to keep you all to myself . [ chuckles ] just trying to protect you . show you how much i love you . devon : i know . hilary : [ sighs ] i 'm just so scared , devon . i do n't want you -- i do n't want you to think that i 'm being insecure , 'cause i do n't -- i do n't doubt ... devon : honey . honey . what 's this about ? what 's wrong with you right now ? why are you nervous ? hilary : because we ca n't keep going on the way that we have been , devon . it 's not right . jill : lily , you were stunning , and i mean stunning . that 's the only word for it . lily : thank you , jill . billy : yeah , once you got into it , it 's like you never left -- amazing . lily : [ giggles ] great job , lily . lily : yeah . i ca n't wait to work with you again . lily : yeah , likewise ! thank you . billy : thanks . lily : hi ! cane : hey ! lily : surprise ! [ laughter ] cane : yeah , no kidding . how did this happen ? billy : our model got stranded at laguardia . we needed a replacement , and ... jill : yeah . billy : thankfully , lily was it . jill : we thought lily 'd be perfect . cane : well , i mean ... she is perfect . i mean , why did n't you call me and tell me ? billy : the clock was ticking . honestly , we did n't have time . jill : cane , trust me . she saved our campaign . you should be very proud of her . cane : of course , i 'm proud . lily : yeah , i just -- i felt really awkward at first , and then billy kind of took me aside and told me who your market was , and ... it just -- it clicked . i forgot how much fun this was . cane : look at you . you 're gorgeous . lily : thank you . cane : you 're gorgeous . lily : i feel that way , too . well , i 'm gon na change and then we can go home , okay ? cane : all right . lily : [ chuckles ] billy : well , i got to hand it to you -- that was a great idea . jill : yeah . glad it went well . billy : my gosh . that camera loves her . jill : mm . it 's true . billy : and you know , with a little effort on our end , this could be a gold mine for us . jill : let 's not get ahead of ourselves , okay , and plan a whole campaign . because when cane walked in , he did not seem too thrilled . billy : yeah , it 's not really up to cane , is it ? victoria : so , you learned `` kata , `` huh ? is that what you 're calling it ? `` kata ? `` johnny : show me some of your moves , then . victoria : oh ! whoo ! careful ! those are some vicious moves ! katie : mommy , watch me now ! victoria : okay . oh , yeah ! wow ! yes ! good . just do n't use that on each other , okay ? just go easy on each other with that , all right ? okay . here . take your toys to your room . johnny : i 'm stronger ! i 'm stronger ! katie : i 'm stronger ! victoria : hey . reed : you say i 'm noisy . victoria : yeah , well ... hey , how 's your essay going ? reed : it 's all done . i bet you did n't even hear me practicing up there . those headphones billy got me really work great . victoria : yeah , great . thank you for that . thank you so much . i really appreciate it . reed : yeah . victoria : hey , guys , i got to start making some dinner , so what do want for dinner , huh ? johnny : chicken . victoria : chicken ? katie : pizza . johnny : chicken ! katie : pizza ! reed : i 'll go turn on the oven . victoria : okay . katie : pizza ! johnny : chicken ! victoria : hey , uh , reed ? reed : yeah ? victoria : um , what is this credit card doing on the desk ? reed : i do n't know , um , maybe the kids were messing around . devon : [ groans ] thank you . hilary : you 're welcome . so , um , if you 're not too tired , i would really , really like to get back to what we were talking about . devon : yeah , so would i 'cause it sounded important . hilary : well , stitch said that you need to stay calm , but i know that you 're worried about your memory and the pieces that are missing ... devon : i just -- i have a lot of questions , that 's all . hilary : okay , and i 'm -- i 'm ready to answer those questions . all of them . fill in all of the blanks . devon : i appreciate that , honey . you know what , none of that even matters anymore . hilary : what do you mean ? devon : i mean that while you were gone , i did some thinking of my own , and i realized that you were right . hilary : okay , devon -- devon : no , i could have died in that car accident . but i did n't . and that 's what important . today . hilary : devon -- devon : the present and the future . hilary : and i agree with you , i do , but what i 'm about to tell you is kind of important . devon : please let me get this thought out . starting right now , in this moment , i want to make the most of our time together , okay ? hilary : devon , i 'm trying to tell you -- devon : please let me finish , honey . please . i know how lucky i 've been . i know that i 've been the guy walking around with a couple billion dollars , doing whatever i want , having people practically trip over themselves to give me what i want . i 've been wasting money , and most importantly , i 've been wasting time , and that 's gon na stop . that 's all gon na change starting right now . [ next_on ] victor : you probably wonder why i asked you to join me here today . since you all know me so well , why do n't you tell me what this is all about ? kevin : i do n't have anymore information than you do , and i have no way of getting in touch with him . dylan : why would i go anywhere with you ?
jill asks lily to fill in for a brash and sassy model whose flight got canceled , and lily feels very happy after the photo shoot . cane pretends to be happy for lily , but jill and billy can tell that he is n't happy that they used lily as the brash and sassy model . reed uses victoria 's credit card to watch pornography on the internet , but when victoria wonders what her credit card was doing out on the desk , he says that johnny and katie must have gotten it out when they were playing . jack advises hilary to tell devon the truth , because it is the only way to save her marriage . hilary is determined to tell devon the truth , but he tells her that cane made him realize he is lucky to be alive , and he is going to stop acting in an irresponsible manner .
<s>[INST] jill : well , the way they were those reporters ! jack : yeah , what about them ? jill : well , the way they were harassing you . i mean , i was appalled . i - i should have said something . jack : it 's been like this nonstop . they 've got this notion that devon was drinking at the benefit and that 's what caused the accident . jill : is that what caused it ? jack : no , the blood work showed he was not intoxicated . nowhere near . but trying selling that to the rabid press . what i hate is what this is doing to the foundation -- undermining our credibility , all the good work we 've been doing . i 'm so sorry . i know how frustrating it must be . the trouble is , we know who 's to blame , do n't we ? hilary : are you all right ? devon : yeah . hilary : just -- here . talk to me . talk to me . devon : i just had some crazy dreams . a bunch of flashes and ... stuff 's all jumbled up . it was very intense . hilary : you remember what stitch said . you need to stay calm . you need to relax . do n't push yourself to try and remember . devon : honey , i was dreaming . hilary : well , you 're still dwelling on it , are n't you ? hilary : here , i , uh , made you some tea . devon : i do n't want any tea , thank you . hilary : you know , i 'm -- i 'm starting to wonder if stitch might have released you a little too soon . devon : no , believe me , i 'm fine , i just have this blank spot in my memory that i have questions about . hilary : well , you were in a car accident , and now you need to take care of yourself . that is all that you need to know . devon : i remember driving now . that 's all coming back to me . they 're just pictures in my head , and i -- feeling the feelings i was having , it was very intense . i also remember being alone . in the car . i never thought about that before . why were n't you with me ? cane : baby , stitch would n't have released your brother if he did n't think he was ready to go home , okay ? lily : i know . i 'm not just worried about his medical condition . he 's now isolated from everyone who cares about him . cane : i know , everyone except hilary , i know this . lily : and what if she 's the only one there when his memory comes back ? she is the queen of spin . cane : all right . lily : you know how desperate she is to hold onto him . cane : i know you 're frustrated , but there 's nothing we can do . lily : i know what i wish we could do . cane : all right , listen . come here . what we can do is be patient . he said we ca n't dump the truth on him while he 's this fragile . you know this ? okay . lily : i understand . i 'm not gon na say anything . i just feel that the longer he 's with her , the more afraid i am for his future . billy : did you get the final layout ? victoria : yes , it 's right here . okay , what do you think about this -- `` spray on confidence . `` billy : uh , it 's not bad . victoria : well , it 's our first men 's body spray . it 's got to be better than just not bad . i mean , i want the market to take us seriously . billy : which is why we 're doing this blitz advertising campaign . we 've got the biggest model in the industry , we 've got a celebrity photographer , and his day rate says so . victoria : billy , this ad has to cut through all the other noise on valentine 's day . that 's why we have to go all - out , okay ? billy : all right , what about ... all right , i think i got it . what about ... victoria : what ? what ? billy : `` spray on confidence . `` brash & sassy ! `` spray on magnetism . `` brash & sassy ! `` spray on ... `` victoria : ... sex appeal . `` brash & sassy ! it 's like a serial line instead of one for the whole campaign . that 's great . billy : do people still say `` sex appeal , `` or is that too retro ? victoria : well , no , it 's perfect for our target , i think . billy : okay , i 'll get copies for the photographers so we 're all on the same page . billy : hey , man . reed : hey . billy : what brings you back here ? reed : forgot my phone . billy : yeah ? felt naked without it , huh ? reed : yeah , kind of . um , hey , thanks again for , uh , you know , that other thing . victoria : what other thing ? cane : the best thing we can do is show up and see devon , so he knows he can count on us . so if the time comes and he wants to talk ... lily : yes , he 'll reach out , hopefully . cane : absolutely , okay ? look , i have time now . i do n't have to be back at the office . we can go and see him right now . okay ? lily : you know , that 's actually a really good idea . you should definitely go . cane : hang on a second . are you trying to tell me you 're trying to avoid your own brother here , or something ? lily : no , i just -- i ca n't stand thinking of hilary playing this devoted wife , you know ? and i 'm under strict orders to not cause devon any stress . i 'm afraid i wo n't be able to keep my mouth shut . cane : so , basically , you 're saying you do n't want to see your own brother . lily : will you please just go for me and make sure he 's okay ? if i blurted something out and devon had a setback , i would never forgive myself . jack : devon was speeding on an icy road in a car he was unfamiliar with and lost control . yes , he was fighting with his wife , but you ca n't blame her for the accident . jill : want to bet ? jack : devon was acting out with a vehicle . he could have gone home , he could have come here . he could have made any number of decisions that were less destructive than driving 100 miles an hour on a country road . jill : my god , you 're still on her side . jack : no , there are no sides here , jill . jill : no , why are you defending this woman when she has done such vicious things ? jack : [ groans ] jill : no , mariah is just her latest victim . look , i 'm gon na ask you something really serious . what is it about her that inspires in you men such blind loyalty , that you can forgive her anything ? jack : i am amazed that you of all people can ask this question , given your history . i have said this before ... jill : do n't say it again . jack : with all due respect , you came from nothing , determined to be someone . you found the richest guy in town , and you worked hard to become something . i admire that . hilary is merely following in your footsteps . you have more in common than you think . jill : stop it . jack : you made your share of mistakes -- hell , i had a front - row seat for most of them -- and you were ambitious . hell , you still are . that 's another thing you two have in common . jill : if you are through psychoanalyzing me , could we start on devon , please ? what is his excuse ? jack : what are you asking ? jill : why has n't he left her a long time ago after all the hell she 's put him through ? jack : marriage is complicated , jill . you know that better than anyone . some people will put up with anything in the name of love . devon : i also remember having this flash vision , where i looked at the speedometer and it said 140 miles an hour . was that how fast i was going when i crashed ? hilary : devon , there 's -- there 's no way for us to know for sure . devon : but it 's possible . hilary : yeah , it was a really powerful sports car , so , yeah , it 's possible that you did n't know how fast you were going . i mean , you just bought it an hour earlier . devon : and why were n't you in the car with me ? hilary : i told you . i was working and you wanted to take your new car out for a test drive . you know , can we -- can we talk about this a little later ? because , um , i 'm gon na call the agency and see what time we can be expecting the nurse . devon : that does n't make any sense , though . why would n't i just wait for you to be done working so we could come home together ? hilary : well , devon , we agreed that we would meet back here . devon : were we together at midnight ? hilary : yes . of course we were . we rang in the new year with a big kiss . devon : and then i , what , i just ... left you to go play with my new toy ? hilary : devon , really . i was fine with it . devon : it just -- none of this sounds right . it does n't sound like anything that i would do . i do n't mean to upset you by talking about it . i know you were there when i woke up at the hospital . you 've been with me this entire time , and i 'm sure i put you through enough . hilary : no , devon , listen to me , okay ? you are the one that i 'm worried about , okay ? and i do n't want you getting upset . whatever happened on new year 's eve , it does n't matter anymore . devon : honey , it matters to me . billy : i showed reed the correct way to format a bibliography . victoria : oh , well , you could have gone online for that . reed : yeah , but he was already reading my paper , so ... victoria : well , you just should have come to me , honey . reed : mom , i mean , you 're always so busy with work . victoria : billy and i have the same job , you know . reed : i mean , i do n't want to bug you with everything little thing . victoria : you keep saying that , but i told you , you can come to me . that 's what i 'm here for . i 'm your parent , reed . you understand that , right ? reed : i just came to get my phone . i mean , i know you guys are busy , so i 'll see you back at the house . victoria : how are you getting home ? reed : the bus . how else ? victoria : do you have enough tokens ? reed : yes , you gave me a bunch of them , remember ? victoria : okay , well , you should have some time to yourself because hannah 's gon na be coming home with the kids from karate in a little while . reed : all right . great . victoria : bye , honey . reed : see you . billy : later . take it easy . victoria : so , now you 're an expert on bibliographies , huh ? billy : as a matter of fact , victoria ... victoria : what is the truth , billy ? what is so top - secret that reed can only tell you ? hilary : whoa , whoa , whoa . listen , buddy . stitch sent you home early because he knew that i would take care excellent care of you . so , as your nurse , at least for now , i insist that you sit right back down on this couch and get some rest . devon : [ groans ] hilary : or better yet , why do n't you go upstairs to bed ? i can join you later , hmm ? devon : you gon na wear a nurse outfit when you join me ? hilary : absolutely ... not . but we can drink some hot cocoa and we can watch some old black - and - white movies . i know those always put you to sleep . devon : yeah . hilary : do n't look at me like that . stitch was adamant about you getting your rest . devon : you really do n't need to stick around here and take care of me . seriously . i know you have to be dying to get back to the studio . hilary : in case i have n't made it absolutely clear , nothing is more important to me than you . not work , not anything . besides , roz , she has everything under control . devon : yeah , but we 're running reruns . how are we gon na -- hilary : devon , no more shop talk , i 'm serious . [ doorbell rings ] hilary : maybe the agency just sent the nurse over . cane : hey . i just wanted to check on devon and see how he 's doing . is he awake ? hilary : he 's sleeping . cane : that 's good . good . how 's he feeling ? hilary : happy to be home . devon : hey , who 's at the door ? cane : hey , man . it 's just me , but if you 're resting , that 's cool . i 'll come back later , all right ? devon : no , no , no , it 's fine . come in . cane : you do n't have to worry , i 'm not gon na stay long . hey , man . devon : hey . cane : hey . devon : how you doing ? cane : look at you , huh ? devon : i know , right ? jack : people showed you a lot of compassion and understanding along the way . it seems to me you could return the favor . jill : to hilary ? oh , my god , i did n't think you were this gullible . well , i guess obviously you 've just been seduced , too , huh ? [ gasps ] maybe even literally . jack : i 'm not going to dignify that with a response . jill : no , i 'm sure it 's not for lack of hilary trying , though . jack : we 're done here , jill . jill : listen to me . that woman has hurt my family , so , no , i will not soon be forgiving her hideous behavior , okay ? in fact , i 'd like to give her a one - way ticket out of town . jack : goodbye , jill . jill : and she deserves everything she gets , and mark my words , it 's coming soon . listen . do you know ? lily : do you know what ? jill : what it is about hilary hamilton that has all the men in this town acting like such fools ? i mean , smart , savvy , successful businessmen who ought to know better . lily : jill , look , for once , i am finally over talking about that woman . billy : if there was anything critical that i felt that you needed to know , believe me , i would tell you in a heartbeat . victoria : if it involves reed 's safety , then ... billy : it has nothing to do with safety , okay ? he is not a reckless kid . victoria : and you know that because he confided in you , right ? billy , please . i hate being cut out of my own son 's life . would you just please tell me what he asked you to help him with ? billy : it was just guy stuff . victoria : guy stuff like what ? what is guy stuff ? billy : kids his age , they , just , you know , are questioning certain things , that 's all . victoria : like what ? stuff ? things ? can you just please be a little more specific with me ? billy : i 'm just saying that a kid his age , you know -- it 's not always easy to talk to their mom about everything . it 's hard enough to talk to another guy , let alone an adult , so you 're just gon na have to cut him a little bit of slack on this one . victoria : [ sighs ] okay . fine . fine . i will . billy : okay . victoria : [ sighs ] billy : vick , you 're raising a teenage boy that you do n't know all that well . it 's got to be a little overwhelming . victoria : yeah , at time , it 's a little overwhelming , you know ? i just -- i worry about him . billy : i know that , but at a certain point , you got to just let him make his own choices . victoria : i 'm not sure if he 's made the best choices , billy . i mean , look -- look at how he ended up here . billy : yeah ! let 's look about how he ended up here . that 's the best choice that he made , coming to live with you and johnny and katie , under that roof , surrounded by family with a built - in social life ? victoria : i do n't know . i guess maybe i 'm just anxious because of the problems that he 's been having with j.t . billy : well , how well did they communicate ? victoria : i do n't know , probably not very well . billy : for a 15-year - old , that 's huge . you just got to make sure that he feels safe enough to talk to at least one of us about some of this stuff . victoria : `` one of us . `` meaning you . billy : certain , things , yeah . maybe . but , listen , you two have a great rapport . the fact that he is able to talk to any adult about these things is a huge accomplishment . you got to just make sure that he feels safe , okay ? and , look -- you and j.t . , you did a great job . he 's a good kid . you should be proud of yourself . lily : i really think that devon 's doctor sent him home too early . jill : because hilary was there playing the doting wife , no doubt . now she controls access to him . you may not be able to speak to him for weeks . lily : look , trust me , i am as disgusted as you are , and i would love nothing more than for devon 's eyes to be opened up about her , but i feel like all i do these days is just root for his marriage to fail . jill : well , it should fail after everything she 's done . lily : well , i 'm sure a lot of people say the same thing about me after i cheated on cane . jill : please , do not compare yourself to her . lily : no , i 'm not . what -- [ scoffs ] what i 'm trying to say is that i 'm spending too much energy on this . devon knows how i feel and so does everyone else . i 'm sure he 's sick of me bashing his wife , and frankly , i 'm -- i 'm sick of it , too . jill : so , what ? you 're giving up ? you 're giving up helping devon see the light ? lily : he 's a grown man . he needs to figure it out for himself . billy : we got such a small window , i just do n't see how this is gon na happen . no , i appreciate it , helen . i really do . okay . thanks . bye . victoria : oh , no . what happened ? billy : she 's not coming . victoria : what do you mean , she 's not coming ? she has to come . the whole campaign depends on her . billy : it 's impossible . her flight got cancelled . she 's stuck in new york . so we 're just gon na have to postpone the photo shoot . victoria : no , we ca n't postpone the photo shoot . george has got one day . he 's booked until spring ! we ca n't , the whole campaign depends on him ! billy : you just said the model 's the most important thing , now you 're saying it 's george . victoria : it 's both of them , billy -- both of them ! billy : okay , well , i hate to break it to you , but we can find another photographer to take pictures , and we can find somebody else to pose in the pictures . victoria : well , i hate to break it to you , but we need to find somebody now , today . the whole point was to roll out before valentine 's day . billy : yeah , i know that , victoria . victoria : okay , well , then we need to find a model now , or we can just push this whole thing back until summer . [ cell phone rings ] billy : great , this is all i need to deal with right now . hi , mother . jill : hi , honey . i 'm just calling to check on who the photo shoot is going . billy : it 's not , actually . our model had to cancel , and i know we have to get this done today , so vicki and i are gon na through the files and try and find somebody new on short notice . jill : well , now ... i may have an idea . hilary : devon , you really need to get your rest . devon : honey , i 'm fine , okay ? i 'm more than up for a visitor . you just said the nurse is on her way . i 'm serious , if you want to go to the studio , do it . cane : yeah , it 's cool . you can go , i can wait with him till the nurse gets here . do n't worry about it . devon : he 's cool . cane : yeah . hilary : okay . sure . cane : okay . sure . hilary : guess it 'll give me a chance to update the troops , right ? devon : yeah . tell them i said hi . hilary : okay . cane . cane : see you . devon : drive safe , honey . cane : yeah . hilary : yep . cane : you know you gave us a scare , right ? devon : i gave myself a scare . [ sighs ] cane : how you feeling ? devon : i 'm feeling better every day . cane : yeah ? devon : mm - hmm . cane : you know , considering what happened , you kind of look , uh ... you kind of look all right . [ chuckles ] devon : i just ca n't believe how damn stupid i was , driving that fast . cane : so you , uh ... you remember anything , or ... ? devon : i do , actually . yeah , this morning , i had a flash when i was drifting in and out of sleep . cane : yeah ? details or anything like that ? devon : it was just me being behind the wheel , driving like a crazy person , but that 's ... that 's all i saw . that 's it . cane : it 's okay . it does n't matter . all that matters now is that you heal , you know ? take care of yourself . devon : how does an entire night just disappear from someone 's brain like that ? cane : do n't worry about it , all right ? do n't stress yourself out . just let it go . it 's all right . devon : i 'm trying not to . hilary 's been filling in some blanks for me . cane : really ? devon : yeah . cane : what 'd she , uh ... like what ? devon : well , i remember that i was alone in the car . so i was wondering why she was n't with me . cane : you asked her that . what 'd she say ? devon : yeah , she said that i wanted to test the car out after i got it , and we agreed that we 'd meet back here that night , which obviously did n't happen . but at least i got to kiss my wife at midnight , so ... cane : hilary told you that , huh ? devon : yeah . why ? devon : cane , if you know something , man , please ... cane : i do n't know anything . i do n't . devon : well , i assume that you and lily were at the benefit , right ? cane : yeah , we were there . i was dressed in my penguin suit , looking handsome . devon : thank you . i hope that neil and jack do n't , uh , think i 'm gon na ask for the money back , since i wrecked the car . cane : you know , i get this feeling that , uh , everyone who wanted that car , including me , kind of , you know -- we stopped bidding once we , uh , saw you wanted it and put that big bid down , so do n't worry about that . devon : look , i know that , um , stitch said that everyone should walk on eggshells around me so i do n't get agitated , but i 'm -- i 'm really struggling to remember things . so , if you can help me , i 'd appreciate it . cane : listen , devon , you know , um ... there 's not a lot of people who would have survived that accident , you know ? so i think it 's , you know , that 's what you should focus on . let the other stuff go . do n't worry about that , okay ? devon : i know . i 've been thinking about that a lot lately . cane : yeah , i know . me , too . could have you lost you , man . glad i did n't . you know , i think there 's a lesson here that you should learn from this , and that 's that life is short . we should thank god , you know . these things can happen any second . roz : website 's a zoo , and the phones -- people are calling nonstop wanting to know what 's going on . hilary : roz , i already told you how to respond . we 're grateful that devon is recovering after his car hit a patch of black ice . roz : okay , i do n't know how to put this delicately , but , um ... questions have been raised about whether he was ... impaired in some way . hilary : are you asking me if devon was drunk ? roz : it was new year 's eve . hilary : they tested devon . his blood alcohol level was well below the legal limit . roz : is that just what we 're saying , or is that also true ? hilary : it 's the truth . roz : great . so much easier that way . oh , and there also have been questions about the circumstances leading up to -- hilary : i told you what to say about that , too . roz : okay , then that 's what we 'll go with . hilary : there 's no way , okay ? i 'm not ready to come back yet . devon just got home and he still needs me , so i 'm here . i 'm gon na sign some paychecks , pick up my messages , that 's it . roz : all right . i 'll leave you to it . hilary : [ sighs ] jack : hey . i was hoping i might find you here . hilary : jack . what a nice surprise . jack : so , i hear devon is released from the hospital , a lot sooner than people expected . hilary : yeah , he is . it 's good . we 're really happy to have him home . jack : i 'm sure you are . how you doing ? hilary : i 'm hanging in there . jack : neil told me about devon 's memory loss . i , uh -- i 'm sure that can nerve - racking . hilary : if you 're asking me if i told devon about that night , the answer is no . i 'm sure that neil explained why . jack : he did . i ca n't help but wonder if it is n't a little more shocking to hear it from someone else , though . you know how hard it is to keep a secret in this town . there were a lot of people at that benefit . if one person had their camera out and video'ed the two of you arguing and decided to post it online , or , i do n't know , just let it slip accidentally ... hilary : or on purpose ? jack : ... or on purpose . if it were me , that 's not the way i 'd want the person i love to find out . victoria : we 're also gon na probably want some shots where she 's , you know , looking back over her shoulder , maybe . a little bit like this ? billy : yeah , some of it without the product in - hand . jill : okay , everybody , your model 's here . billy : hey ! victoria : oh , lily ! oh , my gosh . thank you so much for dropping everything to do this for us . lily : yeah , of course . my pleasure . billy : yeah , just have fun with it . you 're gon na be great for us . lily : i will do my best . victoria : i assume that jill filled you in on everything that we 're looking for ? lily : she did , yeah , but , i mean , just so you guys know , it 's been a while . are you sure that you want me for this ? billy : absolutely . victoria : yes . billy : you 're one of the best models jabot ever had . lily : [ laughs ] well , i do n't know about that , but thank you . jill : well , anyway , okay , the photographer 's here , and since we 're behind schedule , shall we ? victoria : yes , george and i will walk you over to the studio and we can get you into your wardrobe . lily : okay ... victoria : you 're gon na be great . lily : [ giggles ] thanks . hannah : katie , please stop kicking your brother . katie : no ! johnny : what are you doing ? reed : i was just watching a video that my friend posted online . hannah : your mom told me you have a paper to finish ? i was an english major if you need any help . reed : i 'm all set . um , you can go back to babysitting . i 'm gon na go upstairs and practice my guitar . hannah : okay , see ya ! what do you guys want to do ? should we play a game , or ... ? johnny : yeah ! hannah : you want to play a game ? okay , which one should we play ? should we do `` guess who ? `` hilary : what if devon never forgives me ? not that tripping mariah was that terrible ... okay , fine , it was pretty terrible , especially on top of everything else i 've pulled . but that night , devon said that he had it with me . and whatever good was left in our marriage , it was n't worth it to devon anymore . jack : people say a lot of things in the heat of the moment . he was angry , he was furious . but he 'll get past this . hilary : you did n't get past it with phyllis . jack : i forgave a lot of things . sleeping with billy was n't one of them . besides , this is not about that kind of betrayal . hilary : i do n't know , jack . i do n't know if i could tell devon the truth . opening myself up like that -- i do n't think i can risk it . jack : i know you 're scared . hilary : jack -- it feels like a gift , okay ? the clock has been turned back , and now devon is in love with me again , and i need this time . i need this time so i can show him how much we mean to each other and how much i love him . jack : telling your husband the truth is a leap of faith , i get that . i do , i understand all the danger there . i think it 's worth the risk . you 're gon na have to make that leap of faith eventually anyway . maybe not today , maybe not tomorrow . but as soon as stitch says it 's okay , you need to come straight with your husband . in my hard - earned experience , it may be your only shot at saving your marriage . billy : okay , let 's , uh -- let 's take a little five - minute break for a second here . let me talk to you for a second . lily : look , i 'm sorry . i know i 'm bombing . i have n't done this in a really long time . billy : first of all , you are not bombing , so there 's no need to apologize . just a little bit tight because it 's been a while . lily : yeah , you 're lying to me . billy : no , i 'm not . what 's not working is my stupid idea , okay ? so forget everything that i told you about how this is supposed to work . it 's not about the product at all . this is about you and the feeling that men are gon na have when they respond to the ad , featuring you , okay ? all those guys that do n't have confidence when it comes to women , you 're gon na give them the confidence to approach an exotic creature like yourself , and possibly have a moment , a moment that they never expected . lily : so , in other words ... billy : so , in other words , make all those tongue - tied dudes -- make them feel that they have to come up and talk to you and meet you . nobody in the world does that better than you , okay ? lily : [ giggles ] okay . billy : you good ? lily : yes . billy : all right . you look amazing . lily : thanks . billy : okay , so come on . [ clears throat ] okay . all right . devon : what matters to me is making the most of that new beginning you mentioned . look under your pillow . hilary : hmm . devon : open it . hilary : it 's my eternity ring . i ca n't believe you kept it . devon : i would have kept it forever , and that 's how long i want to keep you . hilary curtis ... will you marry me ? hilary : okay , let me know if you need anything else . devon : hey . how 's the nurse doing ? hilary : she got your room all set up . devon : nice . hilary : i hope that cane did n't tire you out . devon : no , he actually gave me a lot to think about . especially how lucky i am to be alive . hilary : that 's good . that 's what we should focus on . that 's what we should be grateful for . devon : absolutely . how was the , uh , studio ? hilary : roz has everything under control , it 's all good . devon : that 's fantastic . [ groaning ] [ sighs ] hilary : hey . devon : hey . hilary : i want to thank you . for suggesting that i go . devon : yeah . hilary : it gave me a lot of time to think . devon : about what ? hilary : us . mostly . ever since you 've been home , i 've just -- i 've been trying to keep you all to myself . [ chuckles ] just trying to protect you . show you how much i love you . devon : i know . hilary : [ sighs ] i 'm just so scared , devon . i do n't want you -- i do n't want you to think that i 'm being insecure , 'cause i do n't -- i do n't doubt ... devon : honey . honey . what 's this about ? what 's wrong with you right now ? why are you nervous ? hilary : because we ca n't keep going on the way that we have been , devon . it 's not right . jill : lily , you were stunning , and i mean stunning . that 's the only word for it . lily : thank you , jill . billy : yeah , once you got into it , it 's like you never left -- amazing . lily : [ giggles ] great job , lily . lily : yeah . i ca n't wait to work with you again . lily : yeah , likewise ! thank you . billy : thanks . lily : hi ! cane : hey ! lily : surprise ! [ laughter ] cane : yeah , no kidding . how did this happen ? billy : our model got stranded at laguardia . we needed a replacement , and ... jill : yeah . billy : thankfully , lily was it . jill : we thought lily 'd be perfect . cane : well , i mean ... she is perfect . i mean , why did n't you call me and tell me ? billy : the clock was ticking . honestly , we did n't have time . jill : cane , trust me . she saved our campaign . you should be very proud of her . cane : of course , i 'm proud . lily : yeah , i just -- i felt really awkward at first , and then billy kind of took me aside and told me who your market was , and ... it just -- it clicked . i forgot how much fun this was . cane : look at you . you 're gorgeous . lily : thank you . cane : you 're gorgeous . lily : i feel that way , too . well , i 'm gon na change and then we can go home , okay ? cane : all right . lily : [ chuckles ] billy : well , i got to hand it to you -- that was a great idea . jill : yeah . glad it went well . billy : my gosh . that camera loves her . jill : mm . it 's true . billy : and you know , with a little effort on our end , this could be a gold mine for us . jill : let 's not get ahead of ourselves , okay , and plan a whole campaign . because when cane walked in , he did not seem too thrilled . billy : yeah , it 's not really up to cane , is it ? victoria : so , you learned `` kata , `` huh ? is that what you 're calling it ? `` kata ? `` johnny : show me some of your moves , then . victoria : oh ! whoo ! careful ! those are some vicious moves ! katie : mommy , watch me now ! victoria : okay . oh , yeah ! wow ! yes ! good . just do n't use that on each other , okay ? just go easy on each other with that , all right ? okay . here . take your toys to your room . johnny : i 'm stronger ! i 'm stronger ! katie : i 'm stronger ! victoria : hey . reed : you say i 'm noisy . victoria : yeah , well ... hey , how 's your essay going ? reed : it 's all done . i bet you did n't even hear me practicing up there . those headphones billy got me really work great . victoria : yeah , great . thank you for that . thank you so much . i really appreciate it . reed : yeah . victoria : hey , guys , i got to start making some dinner , so what do want for dinner , huh ? johnny : chicken . victoria : chicken ? katie : pizza . johnny : chicken ! katie : pizza ! reed : i 'll go turn on the oven . victoria : okay . katie : pizza ! johnny : chicken ! victoria : hey , uh , reed ? reed : yeah ? victoria : um , what is this credit card doing on the desk ? reed : i do n't know , um , maybe the kids were messing around . devon : [ groans ] thank you . hilary : you 're welcome . so , um , if you 're not too tired , i would really , really like to get back to what we were talking about . devon : yeah , so would i 'cause it sounded important . hilary : well , stitch said that you need to stay calm , but i know that you 're worried about your memory and the pieces that are missing ... devon : i just -- i have a lot of questions , that 's all . hilary : okay , and i 'm -- i 'm ready to answer those questions . all of them . fill in all of the blanks . devon : i appreciate that , honey . you know what , none of that even matters anymore . hilary : what do you mean ? devon : i mean that while you were gone , i did some thinking of my own , and i realized that you were right . hilary : okay , devon -- devon : no , i could have died in that car accident . but i did n't . and that 's what important . today . hilary : devon -- devon : the present and the future . hilary : and i agree with you , i do , but what i 'm about to tell you is kind of important . devon : please let me get this thought out . starting right now , in this moment , i want to make the most of our time together , okay ? hilary : devon , i 'm trying to tell you -- devon : please let me finish , honey . please . i know how lucky i 've been . i know that i 've been the guy walking around with a couple billion dollars , doing whatever i want , having people practically trip over themselves to give me what i want . i 've been wasting money , and most importantly , i 've been wasting time , and that 's gon na stop . that 's all gon na change starting right now .

eve 's trial continues to be kangaroo court , where fantasy trumps reality at all stages . today 's mishmash included grace nanciere grilling tc and julian , turning everything they say into something sinister and burying her further . while ethan seemed to at least try to help out , he was still totally innefectual , as usual . once again , julian shows what a treasure he is by setting himself up for jail time instead of giving false witness against eve , but she wo n't hear of it and basically gives the answer the da wanted herself . last up , liz , who is in her element and ready to spill her poisonous guts , truth be damned , and she 's absolutely loving it . gwen finally heads for the mansion to stop theresa , but her methods were bizarre , to say the least . her evil knows no bounds , as proven during her conversation with theresa before tossing the disks with the evidence against her and her mother into the furnace to be burned up . or did she ........ ?

[ scene_break ] jack : i guess we 're gon na have to start looking for office space , now that nick owns the building . he 's gon na yank the lease as soon as it 's up . sharon : you 're so convinced that he 's not gon na buy us out ? jack : honey , at the exorbitant price we asked ? he 'd have to be a real sap . victor 's not gon na bite , that 's for sure , after he just announced to the whole world that he 's cutting off his family with a rusty knife ? [ sharon remembering ] sharon : nick and jack are at each other 's throats and ... i do n't know what to do . we are trying the shield noah from the hostility , i feel that it 's going to blow , so could you ... i mean , would you ... victor : help nicholas ? sharon : maybe offer him his old job back at newman ? i do n't know that he 's even gon na take it , but he wo n't let jack buy them out . i do n't see any other solution . the family 's really suffering .

[ scene_break ] heather : since he 's been back , he 's been treating adam like something stuck to the bottom of his shoe . paul : yeah . kinda like the way adam treated nick and victoria , huh ? heather : yeah , but that 's the weird part , because he 's frozen them out , too . paul : well ... heather : i do n't know , maybe he 's going through a breakdown or something ? what happened in mexico ? paul : um ... beats me . i was pretty focused on finding nikki and making sure she was okay . heather : well , something changed the man . i do n't know , and i convinced adam to go ask him for a second chance . and i 'm thinking that might not be such a good idea .

[ scene_break ] nikki : well , usually when you want something from me , you have my favorite tea sitting here waiting . jack : what makes you think i want something ? did it ever occur to you that maybe , just maybe , i contacted you out of concern ? nikki : that 's true . i recognize your sincere face that you have on this morning . all right , go ahead . what are you concerned about ? jack : victor . nikki : ( laughs ) oh , i 'm sorry . i thought that was a punch line . go ahead . jack : a man in victor 's position can not be too careful . there are vultures everywhere , waiting for him to fall once , and they will swoop in and pick him clean . he has to protect himself . nikki : well , if anybody can do that , it 's victor . jack : ordinarily , i would agree with you , but any grifter who saw that recent television interview is gon na know victor is not himself these days . nikki : really ? jack : if he is not of sound mind , somebody has to look out for him , nik . i know you two have had your problems lately . i also know you love him . nikki : oh , for the love of god ! jack : do n't -- do n't -- do n't deny it . we 're talking about a potentially serious situation . if victor is losing it , he is going to -- nikki : he 's not losing it . jack : okay , if i 'm politically correct , will you listen to me ? if victor 's faculties are not what they should be , someone has to step in , freeze his assets , and put him under psychiatric care . that way , no one can prey on him when he 's incapacitated . nikki : i see now what you 're talking about . yeah , that could be a problem . jack : oh , thank god . i was worried i would n't get through to you . nikki : if only someone had thought to freeze those assets before victor gave nicholas that line of credit , then you would n't have gotten screwed . [ scene_break ] victoria : so i 'm glad nick called , told me about the magazine . that 's just great . and mom seems really good , does n't she ? j.t . : yeah , she does . victoria : yeah . j.t . : i know you were really worried about that . victoria : i really do n't think she 's gon na take another drink now that dad 's home and he 's safe . and ... whatever he 's going through , it 's not gon na last forever . so we 're all okay . j.t . : yes . yes , we are ... all okay . victoria : would you promise me something ? j.t . : name it . victoria : would you keep an eye on my dad ? he 's pretty vulnerable right now , and i ... i just do n't want him taken advantage of . j.t . : anybody messes with the big guy , i am all over it . victoria : good . things are ... i do n't know , they 're starting to feel like normal around here again . j.t . : well , i like the sound of that . i do . victoria : yeah ? did i tell you that ... j.t . : what ? victoria : my mom moved out ? j.t . : your mom moved out ? victoria : yeah . j.t . : really ? well ... i like the sound of that even better . victoria : yeah , she 's gone . [ scene_break ] phyllis : uh , a cover story on sabrina ? that 's ... nick : yeah , a tribute this time . phyllis : yeah . nick : 'cause i really owe dad one . it 's a chance to set the record straight after the way jack trashed her . phyllis : i think it 's a very kind gesture . i just -- listen , i did n't like jack 's smear job either . i did n't like it , but ... you know , we have to look at the future of this magazine -- how much revenue we 'll generate . nick : so you do n't think real journalism sells ? phyllis : no ! i did n't say that . i did n't say that at all . i just ... listen , what jack was doing was wrong , i know that . he upset people , he upset us , but ... he made the magazine swing . he put us in the black real fast . and if you wan na change the editorial style midstream , i just think you have to consider the possibility that this magazine may fail . [ scene_break ] jack : how did you find out , anyway ? nikki : what , about the letter of credit ? nicholas called me , very excited to be the proud new owner of `` restless style . `` and that makes you the proud new owner of a pile of cash . jack : shut up and drink your tea . nikki : really , jack , did you think that i would fall for that ruse and freeze victor 's assets ? i ca n't even walk through his front door without him siccing the cops on me . jack : okay , you called my bluff . i do n't give a rat 's backside about old moneybags . i do care that he stuck his nose in a private business affair . nikki : looking out for the kids . and he asked neil to hire victoria at newman again . jack : you do n't say ? well , maybe he 's got a few marbles left after all . nikki : i think so . certainly enough to figure out that you were trying to one- up his son . jack : nikki , listen to me , he may have won that round , i may have lost . this battle royale is far from over . your ex has a closetful of skeletons , several of which , unless i miss my guess , are now wearing sombreros and swilling tequila in some quaint little town in , what was it called ? bucerias ? oh , dear . did i hit a nerve ? nikki : not at all , i was just thinking what a sore loser you are . jack : a sore loser with a list of questions a mile long , all of which you could answer . nikki : dream on . jack : nikki , i 'm gon na find out what happened in sunny mexico . and when i do , if it 's as juicy as i think it is , i 'm gon na tell the whole world . magazine , or no magazine . it was sure nice seeing you . you look gorgeous . [ scene_break ] phyllis : thanks . thank you . thanks . thanks . ( sighs ) you 're mad about what i said earlier . nick : no . but i want you to know that `` restless style `` is not gon na fail . not on my watch . phyllis : no , wait a second , i - i did n't -- i did n't imply that `` restless style `` was going to fail on your watch . listen , i completely believe in you . you know that . i believe in you more than you believe in yourself sometimes . but i have to be honest with you . nick , a whole tribute on sabrina -- it 's not gon na sell . it 's not going to . i mean , people did n't even know who she is . a small , little editorial inside , that 's fine -- a little story , but the cover -- no . what we need is someone hot , someone smokin ' and slightly controversial to create some buzz . listen , you are an extraordinary person . you are extraordinary , and that 's why i 'm in love with you . but i think right now ... what you need to do is you need to sort of ... you know , jump on what -- what jack created and -- nick : i do n't -- i do n't wan na do that . i do n't wan na do that . i wan na make `` restless style `` what it was intended to be -- a monthly fashion journal with an edge . now to me , `` edge `` does n't mean destroying people 's reputations . and i 'm a little concerned that you think it may be . phyllis : that 's not what i 'm saying . listen , let me tell you something . i have a stake in this , too . i have a huge stake in this , and if you want me to just stand here and nod my head at anything you say like sharon does with jack , then you 're talking to the wrong girl . i have opinions and i 'm gon na state 'em . [ scene_break ] heather : i know so many people through the d.a .

nick dreads the idea of losing restless style , when he finally comes to the terms with handing it over to jack and sharon ; michael comes to the rescue . victor has come through with the money to enable restless style to stay under newman control , thanks to sharon . victoria decides to take the job offer neil proposed at newman with nick 's blessing . jack is out for victor 's blood and confronts nikki and adam in hopes of getting information or forming an alliance . adam of course bites because he 's been tossed aside by dear old dad like garbage . phyllis and nick disagree about the direction of restless style and michael becomes victor 's proxy .

[ scene_break ] jack : i guess we 're gon na have to start looking for office space , now that nick owns the building . he 's gon na yank the lease as soon as it 's up . sharon : you 're so convinced that he 's not gon na buy us out ? jack : honey , at the exorbitant price we asked ? he 'd have to be a real sap . victor 's not gon na bite , that 's for sure , after he just announced to the whole world that he 's cutting off his family with a rusty knife ? [ sharon remembering ] sharon : nick and jack are at each other 's throats and ... i do n't know what to do . we are trying the shield noah from the hostility , i feel that it 's going to blow , so could you ... i mean , would you ... victor : help nicholas ? sharon : maybe offer him his old job back at newman ? i do n't know that he 's even gon na take it , but he wo n't let jack buy them out . i do n't see any other solution . the family 's really suffering .

[ scene_break ] phyllis : i can not believe that you are defending your ex - wife once again . nick : jack is her husband . phyllis : so anything that jack does that 's unethical , that 's exempt from sharon 's criticism ? is that how it goes ? he has been sabotaging this magazine from the beginning and ... you know , if you did that , i would check you on it . but all that sharon does is just smile and -- and offer people tea . that 's -- that 's all she does . nick : look , we do n't know what sharon is saying to her in private . she could be tearing him a new one . we just do n't know . phyllis : oh , yeah . you just wan na keep on defending her . i - i just -- i do n't understand this . nick : please , do n't -- do n't make this about sharon . this is n't her fault . it 's jack 's fault . and none of this matters anyway . it looks like we 're gon na have to take jack 's offer for a buyout . michael : hey ! phyllis : hey . michael : too early ? phyllis : no . no . we 're just talking . nick : morning , michael . michael : this is for you . nick : am i being served ? michael : i 've not the first clue as to what is in that envelope , but your father ordered me to get it to you right away . nick : okay , thank you . michael : yeah , you got it . have a good one . phyllis : yeah .

[ scene_break ] nikki : well , usually when you want something from me , you have my favorite tea sitting here waiting . jack : what makes you think i want something ? did it ever occur to you that maybe , just maybe , i contacted you out of concern ? nikki : that 's true . i recognize your sincere face that you have on this morning . all right , go ahead . what are you concerned about ? jack : victor . nikki : ( laughs ) oh , i 'm sorry . i thought that was a punch line . go ahead . jack : a man in victor 's position can not be too careful . there are vultures everywhere , waiting for him to fall once , and they will swoop in and pick him clean . he has to protect himself . nikki : well , if anybody can do that , it 's victor . jack : ordinarily , i would agree with you , but any grifter who saw that recent television interview is gon na know victor is not himself these days . nikki : really ? jack : if he is not of sound mind , somebody has to look out for him , nik . i know you two have had your problems lately . i also know you love him . nikki : oh , for the love of god ! jack : do n't -- do n't -- do n't deny it . we 're talking about a potentially serious situation . if victor is losing it , he is going to -- nikki : he 's not losing it . jack : okay , if i 'm politically correct , will you listen to me ? if victor 's faculties are not what they should be , someone has to step in , freeze his assets , and put him under psychiatric care . that way , no one can prey on him when he 's incapacitated . nikki : i see now what you 're talking about . yeah , that could be a problem . jack : oh , thank god . i was worried i would n't get through to you . nikki : if only someone had thought to freeze those assets before victor gave nicholas that line of credit , then you would n't have gotten screwed .

[ scene_break ] phyllis : uh , a cover story on sabrina ? that 's ... nick : yeah , a tribute this time . phyllis : yeah . nick : 'cause i really owe dad one . it 's a chance to set the record straight after the way jack trashed her . phyllis : i think it 's a very kind gesture . i just -- listen , i did n't like jack 's smear job either . i did n't like it , but ... you know , we have to look at the future of this magazine -- how much revenue we 'll generate . nick : so you do n't think real journalism sells ? phyllis : no ! i did n't say that . i did n't say that at all . i just ... listen , what jack was doing was wrong , i know that . he upset people , he upset us , but ... he made the magazine swing . he put us in the black real fast . and if you wan na change the editorial style midstream , i just think you have to consider the possibility that this magazine may fail . [ scene_break ] jack : how did you find out , anyway ? nikki : what , about the letter of credit ? nicholas called me , very excited to be the proud new owner of `` restless style . `` and that makes you the proud new owner of a pile of cash . jack : shut up and drink your tea . nikki : really , jack , did you think that i would fall for that ruse and freeze victor 's assets ? i ca n't even walk through his front door without him siccing the cops on me . jack : okay , you called my bluff . i do n't give a rat 's backside about old moneybags . i do care that he stuck his nose in a private business affair . nikki : looking out for the kids . and he asked neil to hire victoria at newman again . jack : you do n't say ? well , maybe he 's got a few marbles left after all . nikki : i think so . certainly enough to figure out that you were trying to one- up his son . jack : nikki , listen to me , he may have won that round , i may have lost . this battle royale is far from over . your ex has a closetful of skeletons , several of which , unless i miss my guess , are now wearing sombreros and swilling tequila in some quaint little town in , what was it called ? bucerias ? oh , dear . did i hit a nerve ? nikki : not at all , i was just thinking what a sore loser you are . jack : a sore loser with a list of questions a mile long , all of which you could answer . nikki : dream on . jack : nikki , i 'm gon na find out what happened in sunny mexico . and when i do , if it 's as juicy as i think it is , i 'm gon na tell the whole world . magazine , or no magazine . it was sure nice seeing you . you look gorgeous . [ scene_break ] phyllis : thanks . thank you . thanks . thanks . ( sighs ) you 're mad about what i said earlier . nick : no . but i want you to know that `` restless style `` is not gon na fail . not on my watch . phyllis : no , wait a second , i - i did n't -- i did n't imply that `` restless style `` was going to fail on your watch . listen , i completely believe in you . you know that . i believe in you more than you believe in yourself sometimes . but i have to be honest with you . nick , a whole tribute on sabrina -- it 's not gon na sell . it 's not going to . i mean , people did n't even know who she is . a small , little editorial inside , that 's fine -- a little story , but the cover -- no . what we need is someone hot , someone smokin ' and slightly controversial to create some buzz . listen , you are an extraordinary person . you are extraordinary , and that 's why i 'm in love with you . but i think right now ... what you need to do is you need to sort of ... you know , jump on what -- what jack created and -- nick : i do n't -- i do n't wan na do that . i do n't wan na do that . i wan na make `` restless style `` what it was intended to be -- a monthly fashion journal with an edge . now to me , `` edge `` does n't mean destroying people 's reputations . and i 'm a little concerned that you think it may be . phyllis : that 's not what i 'm saying . listen , let me tell you something . i have a stake in this , too . i have a huge stake in this , and if you want me to just stand here and nod my head at anything you say like sharon does with jack , then you 're talking to the wrong girl . i have opinions and i 'm gon na state 'em .

[ scene_break ] ryan : ok , you got to help me out here . you think -- you think that greenlee and i are working together to get you a lethal injection ? can you please tell me how you made the great leap to that particular judgment ? kendall : well , i mean , you were n't all that subtle about it . all i had to do was put the pieces together . now , how many times did i catch the two of you conspiring against me ? ryan : wow , i 've lost track . kendall : like at the ski lodge . ryan : what ? new year 's , when you decided to eavesdrop on us ? i told you you heard us wrong . kendall : well , i -- i believed you at some point . but then the other night , i was outside your apartment . i heard the two of you together again . you said something about being a great team , greenlee promised that she 'd be your secret weapon , and then you sealed it with a kiss . ryan : and that means that we 're both out to get you ? kendall : you said `` about kendall . `` greenlee said she 'd keep her promise , and you said together you both make a great team . ryan : and what about everything that we shared , kendall , including a marriage proposal ? what is that ? is that just crap ? kendall : i 'm sure at some point you were for real , but you just could n't bear to give up all that money and power , which , honestly , i ca n't say that i blame you . but you did n't have to do this . you did n't have to turn against me , ryan . we could have worked something else out . ryan : rotten bastard that i am , i ca n't believe you would have wanted to . kendall : it would have been a hell of a lot better that all the -- the stupid lies that you told me ! all the stupid lies that you told me , ryan ! you set me up ! you set me up good , and that -- that 's what is so devastating about this . ryan : do you really think that i 'm that low ? kendall : ryan , i could have been acquitted ! i could have been acquitted ! but you and your stupid little mole , greenlee -- you had to stab me in the back , strip me naked in court , and sign my death sentence ! ryan : you 've got 30 seconds , kendall -- 30 seconds to take back every word .

[ scene_break ] doctor : in my opinion , that bullet should be removed . i could go in here , clean it out , stabilize the spine and check for any bone fragments . then close you up , put you on another round of antibiotics , steroids if necessary , and let the healing begin . edmund : ok , what are the risks ? doctor : i 've done a boatload of these surgeries . edmund : so i 've heard . actually , i did a little research on you . doctor : mm - hmm . edmund : i think the word they use is `` infallible . `` doctor : my success rate is excellent . edmund : ok . so what are the odds i come out of this better than when i came in ? doctor : given your determination , i 'd say whatever the odds are , there 's a good chance you can beat it . maria : what are you , a surgeon or a bookie ? doctor : a realist . dr. ellis marshall . maria : dr. maria santos - grey . edmund : this is my wife . maria : so something must have changed in these since last i looked at them , then . dr. marshall : only your husband 's resolve to take the next step . maria : you 're consulting ? edmund : just at my request . maria : that 's great . can i just have a second with him by myself ? dr. marshall : of course . maria : thanks . dr. marshall : i have some calls i need to make . maria : what in hell are you doing ? what are you doing ? where is -- where did he come from ? were you going to tell me about this ? edmund : it 's not a secret , maria , you know ? he just arrived sooner than i expected , and i was going to tell you . look , i got to weigh my options . maria : yes , of course you do . but we have n't even determined the full extent of your paralysis . edmund : any extent of paralysis is a little too much , as far as i 'm concerned . maria : i know , honey . i am -- i am merely suggesting that we give your body a chance to heal itself before you have somebody come in here and start slicing and dicing . edmund : come here . can we just talk about it -- the elephant that 's in the room right now , the one that 's got you so terrified you ca n't even mention it ? i ca n't shut down even if you can . all right ? now , what if this is as good as it gets ? what if my body does n't restore itself ?

i 'm kind of picking up a nervous vibe between you two . mariah : from us ? no . no way . devon : yeah . mariah : we could n't be more relaxed . tessa : well , speak for yourself , lady . i 'm nervous as hell . neil : you like that , huh ? ashley : oh ! yes ! neil : well , i hope you enjoyed the nickel tour of the hamilton - winters group world headquarters . i know it 's not exactly palatial , but , you know , it 's a start , is n't it ? ashley : it 's a start ? are you kidding me ? it 's incredible . you know , i knew you were gon na branch off and do something amazing , and i 'm so happy for you . congratulations . to you and devon . neil : glad you approve . ashley : approve ? it 's extraordinary ! neil : well , well , look at you , spreading butter all over my pancakes . ashley : what are you saying ? i 'm here to celebrate the success of my friend . neil : devon and i have a long road ahead of us before we start turning any profits . you know , mergeron is a beast . it 's full of moving parts . ashley : right , and with such a diversified company , there must be some areas that you 're not familiar with . neil : just a few . uh - huh . ashley : are there ? yeah , i would think . um , do you and devon have the right team in place ? i 'm sure it 's not that easy to find somebody that has the wide range of experience that , um , you know , would be required . neil : now we get to the mysterious reason why ashley is here . phyllis : so are you gon na make me start guessing ? jack : about what ? phyllis : whatever it is you did to get victoria 's fling with benjamin a good hard shove . jack : oh ! you mean the little flower arrangement i sent to victoria -- and by little , i mean , absolutely lovely . phyllis : [ gasps ] you didn't . jack : no , you 're correct -- hochman did . a flower arrangement so lovely , it would melt the heart of even the toughest female c.e.o . hochman may have an enormous appetite for acquisitions . with mergers , he 's a gentleman . phyllis : it 's probably been months since she 's received flowers . you are an evil , evil man . jack : well , thank you very much . phyllis : all right . what 's next ? i 'm in . jack : i think we need to tread carefully . after all , what would your boyfriend think if he found out you were trying to sabotage his bread and butter ? billy : come on . you do n't think this is overkill ? victoria : i think it 's a thoughtful and innocent gesture . billy : oh , benny hochman does not do innocent , okay ? do you know what this says , victoria ? this says , `` i 'm sorry that i ca n't apply my corporate raider skills on your company , but your gorgeous body is fair game . `` victoria : knock it off , billy . billy : you know what , maybe i should sit down with benny boy and find out where you are in his plundering to - do list . victoria : okay , i said enough ! you do n't see me grilling you about phyllis , do you ? when 's the last time you two `` plundered `` each other ? please , tell me all the details and be sure to be as graphic as possible . additional sponsorship ashley : somebody who understands all the ins and outs of mergeron -- now that would be a savvy hire . neil : and by someone , you mean dina . ashley : it could help her , and it could help you . neil : you want me to hire your mother at her own former company in a lesser position ? ashley : would it be kind of easy to just give her a vague but somewhat important - sounding title ? neil : you know what you do ? you keep me on my toes . you do . um , i never expected to be having this conversation with you , though . the last we spoke , the relationship that you were having with your mother was kind of ... ashley : oh , was very dysfunctional and terrible and ... neil : yeah . all of that . ashley : yeah , well , you know what ? you 're not wrong , which i 'm sure is why this must seem very strange . but i 'll tell you that , um , even though my relationship with my mother has been dysfunctional ... she is in pain . and i ca n't ignore it . neil : care to share a little bit more ? if i 'm not prying ... ashley : no . you 're not prying . i think my mother regrets selling mergeron . i think she 's suffering from depression because i think she feels that she put herself out to pasture . neil : i got to be honest with you , i noticed it , too . dina came to me , asking me to be more involved . your mother -- she 's a wicked negotiator . devon and i agreed that with her sitting on the board that she could consult , occasionally , at our discretion . but at the end of the day , it 's our company . we call the shots . ashley : i know this is a huge , huge favor to ask of you , but is there any way you could just give her something to do ? neil : yeah , ashley , i -- yeah , i could , but you and i both know that 's a slippery slope . i mean , it 's only natural that your mother -- she would start overstepping her boundaries , and not to mention how it would look to the business world . ashley : oh , yeah , so you buy mergeron , and then you have to run to madame mergeron to show you how to run the company . neil : exactly . ashley : okay , i get it . that 's not exactly the image that you want to project . so no hard feelings for saying no . neil : thank you . i also do n't want to come off as an ogre with no compassion . depression is a very serious condition . it affects people her age a lot . ashley : mm - hmm . neil : so , with that in mind , i wish her the best , and her very beautiful , caring daughter . ashley : thank you . by the way , you are far too handsome to be an ogre , okay ? neil : oh , the ogre line -- yeah , that right there , that was a little fishing expedition . ashley : i figured . i figured . uh - huh . neil : so i hope you find another way to help your mama . ashley : thank you . take care . neil : you too , ash . you , too . phyllis : for the record , i am not trying to sabotage brash & sassy ! i would be delighted if benjamin could pull them out of their rut . it 'd keep billy from spending every waking moment trying to keep his ex 's company afloat . jack : would you also be delighted to see victoria spend her every non - waking moment in the arms of our dear friend ben ? phyllis : there is nothing wrong with wishing victoria some happiness . god knows she 's spent enough time looking for it . jack : you know , this ben is a bit of a wild card . if he inflicts real damage on brash & sassy ! , i need to know i can trust you to keep my role in this scheme a deep , dark secret . phyllis : oh , that 's right . you do n't want nikki to find out that you 're trying to crush her daughter 's company . jack : we each have an ax to grind here . so , we 're agreed ? no reason to share our little joint venture with anyone . billy : sorry . i was just kidding . i did n't mean to upset you . victoria : yeah , well , i was trying to play along . it came out too harsh . benjamin -- no big surprise -- was a big flirt . can we just please leave it at that ? billy : you know what , you 're right . i do n't have a right to ask you about your personal life or your love life . if you want to ... date benjamin hochman , you go right ahead . victoria : i 'm sure that he would much rather get his claws in my company than get involved with me romantically . billy : ooh , i do n't know about that . but it does n't matter because you are the sole owner of brash & sassy ! , so if he wants any stake in this company , he 's got to go through you . and if you ask me , i think that 's hopeless . unless , of course , you think he 's so charming that he can talk you into anything . ashley : hello , graham . graham : ashley . always a pleasure to see you . ashley : oh , well , i 'm glad i could cheer you up . graham : did i seem cheerless ? oh . because i 'm drinking alone in the middle of the day ? i thought a bloody mary might go well with my omelette . ashley : well , it is the perfect combination , is n't it ? graham : so , uh , were you up at the hamilton - winters group ? ashley : yeah . i had n't seen the offices yet , so neil showed me around . graham : anyone else around ? devon ? dina ? ashley : no . should dina be there ? graham : no , no . just a -- just a random thought . do n't think me rude . i was just about to leave , actually . ashley : uh , actually , i do n't understand . you seem kind of worried . what 's going on ? graham : nothing 's going on . i 'm just wondering where dina went . that 's all . ashley : does dina usually inform you about her slightest move ? graham : hardly . but she 'll usually let me know if she 's going out , in case she needs a driver . ashley : until recently , my mother ran a multinational conglomerate . you 're gon na tell me that she ca n't speed - dial a car service ? graham : you 're making much too much of this , ashley . ashley : have you noticed some kind of a change in her mood lately ? graham : what kind of change ? ashley : well , she does n't seem as happy as she was when she first came to town . graham : she 's perfectly happy , as far as i 'm aware . ashley : she told me that she misses mergeron . me . somebody she never confides in . graham : well , this is a big change for her . ashley : mm - hmm . graham : and i suppose she 's been a little bit more reflective since we 've been in genoa city . you probably caught her at a wistful moment . above all , dina 's practical . she knows her c.e.o . days ended when she signed away mergeron . ashley : did it ever dawn on you that maybe she regrets selling the company ? graham : she 's never said anything like that to me . ashley : maybe because you 're the one that pushed her into selling in the first place . yes , my mother told me that , too . and ever since she did , i ca n't stop wondering -- why would you push her to go down a path that she clearly did not want to follow ? tessa : if i seem jumpy , it 's probably because tonight is the most important thing to happen to me and my music . apart from you signing me to your label . devon : tessa , i do n't want you to be scared about tonight . you 're just doing your thing . tessa : in front of microphones , mixing boards , producers ... mariah : you 've recorded songs before . tessa : yeah , demos on my phone . whole different league . devon : it 's the same artistry , it 's the same nuance , it 's the same great melodies and lyrics . the only different , literally , is that you 're gon na have top - notch talent and equipment to capture it . you 'll be fine . and you 're gon na have some of the people who believe in you the most there , starting with us . mariah : wait . me ? i 'm -- i 'm gon na be there ? are you sure that 's okay ? devon : you got something better to do ? mariah : no , i just do n't want to get in the way . devon : tessa asked me to make sure that you came , all right ? we feel the same way about you being there . you 'll be the perfect cheerleader tonight . tessa : yeah , a friendly face never hurts . nick : well , it looks like our expansion is gon na have to stay in the planning stages . noah : why , what happened ? nick : well , what i was gon na tell you before that call came in was while you were gone , i put in some bids on some locations in the markets we talked about . i mean , some buildings that i thought would be just perfect . noah : that 's fantastic ! how many ? nick : three so far , but i 'm batting zero . noah : you kidding me ? they all fell through ? nick : who knew erie , pennsylvania , was such a hotbed of real estate ? i 'm sorry to get your hopes up . i thought i 'd have some cool news for you when you got home . noah : no , dude -- listen . that 's awesome , all right ? it 's awesome . do you have any idea how much it means to me how pumped you are about this project of ours ? nick : so you 're not upset that i put in the bids without you ? i mean , not that it 's getting us anywhere . we may still get that place in canton , though , with the cool loft space . it 's the one on top . noah : dad . this is sick . nick : yeah . right ? i mean , check out the square footage . noah : it 's huge ! i mean , you could have a deejay booth , a dance floor , a separate performance area . check this out -- i love this . freight elevators ? nick : yeah , and it 's already soundproofed . noah : and you know what ? if we do n't get it , no worries . there 's gon na be lots more . plenty of them . nick : you got it , man . i 'm not letting our dream die that easily . noah : keep hunting . nick : yes , sir . noah : what ? nick : i -- i do n't know , i mean ... i ca n't stop thinking about how lucky i am , you know ? i do n't want it to sound sappy , but ... our relationship means everything to me . noah : look , you know i feel the same way , and fyi -- it 's not sappy , all right ? you 're an incredible dad . nick : thanks , bud . means a lot . you know , you could put that in a father 's day card once in a while . noah : i think that got lost in the mail somewhere . nick : we have the same conversation every july . noah : yeah . it 's our tradition ! nick : [ laughs ] you know i 'm just giving you a hard time , right ? noah : yeah . it 's one of your best qualities , your sense of humor . nick : yes , clearly , a dna contribution from my mother since i did n't get any from my dad . noah : uh - oh . something happen while i was away with grandpa ? nick : [ sighs ] you know what he did -- he , um ... he removed me from the family account at the athletic club . noah : as if you ca n't afford your own membership . nick : he knows that . it 's just , uh -- it 's a warning shot , you know ? billy : maybe one day i 'll outgrow my fondness for childish taunting . victoria : yeah , i doubt it . billy : either way , i have no doubt that you can outwit benny hochman any day of the week , not a problem . game over . victoria : ugh , i hope it will be when i make it clear that brash & sassy ! is not a wounded gazelle that he can just pounce on no matter how many overblown bouquets he sends . billy : do you want to practice clarifying on me ?

[ both chuckle ] ashley : is there some reason why you ca n't answer my question , graham ? graham : you 're over - simplifying . dina talked about scaling back for some time before deciding to go through with the sale . i ca n't stress this enough , ashley . it was her decision to step down and cash out . ashley : and you supported it . graham : absolutely . do n't you think your mother 's earned some downtime so she can relax with her family ? ashley : oh , so now you 're in favor of her spending time with her family ? well , that 's definitely a switch . graham : not at all ! i 've never said one word against the idea . ashley : it 's obvious to all of us , graham , how you feel about the abbott family . graham : well , i 'm sorry you feel that way . ashley : i bet you are . just because you 've become closer to her than we 've been does n't mean we 're gon na blindly accept everything you tell us about her . graham : what is you think i 'm deceiving you about ? ashley : our mother has never been a family person . she 's never been the kind of person that stops and smells the roses , graham . i mean , the main reason that she stayed away from genoa city all these years was because she preferred the glamorous life and excitement . graham : and people change . ashley : yeah . and they 're also pushed . and manipulated . graham : i did n't push your mother , ashley . do you honestly think anyone could ? ashley : well , since we 're being so honest with each other , it absolutely serves your purposes for my mother to walk away from mergeron . does it not ? dina : well , well , well . what seems to be the problem , darlings , hmm ? `` the young and the restless `` will continue . graham : ashley and i were just having a passionate debate about the perfect bloody mary recipe . ashley : no , we weren't . we were n't having a debate at all . i found graham here , he was actually pretty upset because apparently , you had n't informed him as to where you were going . i thought that was ludicrous , but i mean , you know , if that 's your arrangement ... dina : it damn well isn't . graham : i tried to explain that to her . dina : [ chuckles ] graham does n't expect me to run my every move by him . nor would i . ashley : well , i must have misconstrued . based on his behavior . so , you actually went to fenmore 's and then downtown to the mall ? dina : oh , yes , i -- i went shopping . there were a few things i bought -- some essentials . ashley : yeah , i see that . wow . graham : shall we go up to the room and put your new things away ? ashley : actually , graham , would you mind doing that for my mother ? i 'd like to have a word with her . alone . graham : of course . ashley : i do n't know , you at the mall -- it 's just kind of mind - blowing . dina : well , i 'm -- i 'm doing all sorts of things i 've never done before . ashley : you are . dina : mm - hmm . ashley : and i want you to , and i want you to have a lot of fun doing it . dina : thank you . ashley : so maybe the next time you have the need for retail therapy , you can let me know , and then we can go kidnap abby and then we can have a shopping adventure ! dina : [ laughs ] well , if you 're thinking of prescribing more shopping to fill my days , that is n't about to happen . and now i have to figure out how to spend the rest of this one . billy : so i think that jaded , amoral benjamin hochman found a new way to squeeze thrills out of a corporate raid -- go after the single , sexy c.e.o . at the same time . victoria shot him out of the sky . although , it barely slowed him down . you should have saw the bouquet of flowers that he sent her . phyllis : oh , so he 's a greed - fueled capitalist and a gentleman ? billy : gentleman ? come on . he 's not a gentleman based off his reputation alone . phyllis : maybe victoria made him want to be a better man . billy : [ scoffs ] well , i 'm not saying she ca n't have that effect on a guy , but he 's not good enough for victoria . phyllis : are you jealous ? [ knocks on door ] benjamin : knock , knock . hey , hey . victoria : hi . benjamin . come on in . benjamin : well , i have to admit , you continue to surprise me . victoria : oh ? benjamin : well , i did n't expect to get a text inviting me here to your private command center with no underlings around to distract us , so ... i find that encouraging . victoria : well , you should n't because i -- i did n't ask you here to pick up where we left off this morning . benjamin : sure about that ? victoria : i 'm pretty certain . last night was just a one - time deal . it 's never gon na happen again . benjamin : up to you . victoria : the flowers were really exquisite , but just more proof that i think i left you with false expectations . benjamin : the , um , flowers ? victoria : yeah . they 're a little hard to miss . benjamin : good , uh , they followed my instructions perfectly . i 'm just surprised that they got here so soon . victoria : well , you should n't have been so extravagant . benjamin : but since i was , have n't i at least earned the right to confide something personal , straight from the heart ? ashley : i 'm as certain as i can be without a medical diagnosis . i think our mother 's suffering from depression , jack . jack : well , what 's she done now ? ashley : she went to neil and she pleaded with him to give her some kind of an active role with mergeron . jack : well , that sounds more like controlling than depression . ashley : okay , well , how about this ? after he said no , she comforted herself by going to the mall . she spent a lot of money at a gadget store . now , does that sounds like something our mother would do ? jack : no , but it also does n't sound like absolute clinical proof . ashley : okay , but it does sound like she 's bored and frustrated , right ? guess who pushed her into selling mergeron . jack : nobody pushes her into anything . ashley : graham did . because she 's not the powerhouse that she used to be , jack . and he has way too much influence over her . that 's another big sign that something 's not right . jack : ash , it is a sad fact of life that people retire too early . they 've been so busy with work , they have n't developed a hobby , and then when they leave their careers ... ashley : exactly . they get lost . they start pushing away their friends and their family . and pretty soon , the loneliness just starts catching up with them , and ... jack : before you know it ... ashley : exactly . now , you tell me -- whose purpose does that scenario fit ? dina : i do n't appreciate you making ashley worry about me . graham : i covered with her . dina : oh , so that 's why she thinks you supervise my every move , hmm ? graham : well , you threw me off guard by disappearing this morning . dina : well , i went shopping ! big deal ! and i was n't about to tell you because i did n't want to disturb your time at the gym during your workout . graham : you could have texted . just keep me informed . that 's all i ask . what 's this ? dina : that happens to be a juicer . they 're very healthy and it 's , uh , quite all the rage . graham : this would hardly be considered an essential . room service will deliver fresh juice any time of the day or night . dina : oh , did it ever occur to you that i might want to make my own ? you know , maybe -- maybe i 'm sick of room service . did you ever think of that ? and maybe i miss having a kitchen . and maybe i miss having a home . [ door slams ] devon : you know , mariah and i have a really good thing going , and i could go on all day about how great she is . neil : yeah . devon : but after hilary , i just -- i feel like ... neil : yeah , you know what you need ? you need someone who 's totally the opposite to hilary , and that person , my man , is mariah , who really seems to have fallen for you . devon : i know , but that 's what worries me a little bit because , you know , hilary and i started throwing around the word `` love `` way too early , and that 's part of what messed everything up for us , part of what messed me up . neil : mm , does mariah know any of this ? devon : no . her love speech took me by surprise . i did n't -- i did n't really know what to say . neil : well , if you do n't know what to say , then i suggest you just , uh , talk to her . and remember , no matter how you feel or you do n't feel , total honesty -- it 's the way to go every time . ashley : so you agree with me ? jack : that a vital dina engaged in her life is the surest way to slow graham 's big payday ? yeah . not that he 'd ever admit that . ashley : i was reminded today , he 's so slipper and clever . jack : well , lucky for us , i 've been called slippery and clever . ashley : that 's true . so , do you have a plan ? jack : we have to keep her vital and engaged . that means we have to keep her close by , keep an eye on her . what if we offered her a job here ? ashley : jack , our mother working here at jabot is the last thing that i want . devon : hey there . hi . mariah : hi . hey . how you doing ? devon : good . how you doing ? mariah : oh , my gosh . wow . it 's , um ... it 's a lot later than i thought . i guess we got to get to the studio . i 'm sorry , i should have come downstairs and met you at the office . devon : it 's fine . it 's fine . do n't worry about that . before we go , um , there 's a couple of things that i want to clarify . mariah : like what ? devon : you told me that you loved me in san francisco , and i just stood there , i did n't say anything back , and i think that you deserve a response . mariah : look , that 's -- that 's not why i said it , and i did n't want you to feel pressured into saying anything . i just kind of blurted it out , in this moment -- a very enjoyable moment -- but we can just kind of leave it at that . devon : i do appreciate you saying that , but i need you to know that i did n't mean to hurt you if i did by not responding . mariah : you didn't . devon : the truth , mariah , is i 'm not ready to say that word yet . but i 'm committed to you . and i 'm not gon na lie to you , 'cause i respect you too much just to say something that i 'm not ready to say . and i really do hope you can understand that . mariah : of course i do . and just so you know , that was the sweetest non- '' i love you `` i 've ever heard in my life . from the most amazing guy . devon : well , i really hope that you do n't move onto somebody more amazing before i 'm able to catch up to you . mariah : there 's no one else . nick : no , crystal has n't been back . i promise you , i 'm keeping an eye out for her . okay . i 'll call you . bye , sharon . noah : crystal 's that , uh , the runaway , the one that called mom on the hotline ? nick : yeah , i , uh -- i found her hiding behind a dumpster out back and brought her in here , but then she took off again . now your mom 's even more worried . noah : such a sad story , you know ? it chills you . i just feel for these kids at the mercy of the world , no family to count on to protect them . it just makes you value what you have that much more , you know ? nick : sure does . noah : you know , dad ... you and me , you do n't have to worry about us . the problems you have with grandpa -- like , that could never happen between us . tessa : hi , guys . noah : hey ! nick : hey . noah : how are you ? tessa : good . noah : dad ! next time you see tessa , she will officially be neil and devon 's first hit recording artist for their streaming service . tessa : well , i do n't know about the `` hit `` part . nick : noah told me you 're in the studio tonight . congratulations . tessa : thank you . noah : so , you ready to make some magic ? tessa : yeah . i ca n't wait , actually . i , uh ... [ cellphone rings ] uh , just one sec . noah : yeah . tessa : hello ? crystal : tessa , thank god . billy : i 'm not jealous . believe me . i told victoria that she 's free and clear to date whoever she wants , okay ? she 's entitled to a social life . phyllis : we all are , but there 's something about her socializing with this particular guy that 's bugging the hell out of you . billy : all right , i 'm not gon na harp on it because tonight is about me and you , but there was something about the way she insisted that dinner with hochman was strictly business , and then the way she reacted when the flowers came . it just -- i do n't know . phyllis : there is a remote possibility that she does not want to talk about her potential new romance with her ex . billy : sarcasm noted . and i am dropping this . phyllis : but ... billy : but i know victoria , okay ? there 's something not right about this . benjamin : i confess . i 'm not so jaded and cynical that i ca n't feel flattered when a gorgeous and accomplished woman gets real with me . [ sighs ] i mean , when you told me last night that you were still having trouble getting over your ex , well , i could relate . victoria : [ sighs ] well , you know , i do n't normally drink wine on an empty stomach , so i 'm sorry if i went on about my personal life . benjamin : no , it was n't like that at all . you shared because we were communicating . there was a mutual connection . i have n't felt that way about anyone since my divorce . i mean , suddenly , single is a strange place to be for people like us . victoria : well , thanks so much for your concern , but i 'm fine . [ chuckles ] benjamin : fair enough . you still got to eat , though . as long as i 'm in town , can i at least take you out to dinner again ? victoria : um , okay . yeah , dinner it is . you 're on . tessa : uh , i have n't heard from you in forever . crystal : i know . i 've been trying to reach you . tessa : my phone 's been off a lot recently , and i was in california . what is it ? is everything okay ? crystal : no . i 'm scared , and i need help . tessa : what can i do ? crystal : i need you to come and -- [ gasps ] tessa : hello ? crystal ? are you there ? noah : hey . everything okay ? you sure ? tessa : yeah , i -- i just , uh , heard from an old friend . i have n't heard from her in ages . noah : oh . tessa : yeah . noah : all right . ashley : look , i want to help mother , but having her here at jabot is just a bad idea . jack : i 'm asking you to think about it . one moment might help . ashley : i did think about it . actually , ravi already suggested it , and it just feels strange to be pulling our mother into the family business , jack . this was our father 's pride and joy . jack : so we just let her waste away -- unwanted , un - needed but for her adoring minion and eager heir ... ashley : i 'm not saying that , but we have to respect our father 's memory . jack : we 're not tarnishing his memory . dad was generous and forgiving to a fault . no , i 'm suggesting we give her a side project , something that 's right in her wheelhouse , a gesture that says we care . ashley : i do n't know . jack : graham has too much control of her . we need to take it back ! graham : i did n't mean to sound patronizing . i was just worried when i got back from the gym and you were gone . dina : i can take care of myself . graham : i 'm just so relieved that you 're safe . i 'm sorry if i wounded you with anything that i said . you know why i 'm with you . i am not going anywhere . [ next_on ] hilary : cane is never leaving lily . juliet : he does n't have a choice . she kicked him out . tessa : maybe this is a mistake . maybe we should just do it another time . sharon : we have to hurry . who the hell are you ?
in the offices of brash and sassy , billy gives victoria a hard time over her love life but then she turns the tables on him and asks him about his love life with phyllis . at the underground , nick welcomes noah home from his trip and lets him know that he had been looking for another place for the underground but with no luck . devon notices mariah and tessa holding hands but joins them anyway . mariah moves over to sit closer to devon . ashley and neil takes a tour of his new offices and the new sign which reads , `` hamilton- winters group . ashley is impressed and then asks if he needs any more help . neil remarks that this is the real reason for her visit . jack and phyllis discuss the flowers that had been sent to victoria supposedly from benjamin hochman . phyllis lets jack know that she is not sabotaging brash and sassy but jack tells her that he wants no one to know his involvement in all this . billy apologizes to victoria for his impromptu remark about her love life and her going out with benjamin hochman . ashley tries to convince neil to give dina a chance but he refuses . ashley meets graham downstairs and asks him about dina and if he had noticed any changes in her . graham denies that anything is going on with her .tessa tells devon and mariah all about her music and devon tells her that he has set up a demo for her and that mariah is invited also . mariah is surprised that she was wanted there . nick lets noah know that he had n't found a place yet but he was going to keep on digging . nick and noah discuss victor and how he had him removed from the membership at the athletic club . after victoria 's talk with billy , victoria texts benjamin to join her at brash and sassy .

[ cellphone rings ] nick : well , hold on a second . yep , this might be the update i was looking for . yeah . it 's the first step in the next newman empire . noah : all right . hurry up . answer the phone . nick : [ chuckling ] all right . yeah , this is nick newman . mariah : hey . hi ! devon : hey , you two . mariah : hi , handsome . mwah ! tessa : hi , devon . devon : are you guys all right ? i 'm kind of picking up a nervous vibe between you two . mariah : from us ? no . no way . devon : yeah . mariah : we could n't be more relaxed . tessa : well , speak for yourself , lady . i 'm nervous as hell . neil : you like that , huh ? ashley : oh ! yes ! neil : well , i hope you enjoyed the nickel tour of the hamilton - winters group world headquarters . i know it 's not exactly palatial , but , you know , it 's a start , is n't it ? ashley : it 's a start ? are you kidding me ? it 's incredible . you know , i knew you were gon na branch off and do something amazing , and i 'm so happy for you . congratulations . to you and devon . neil : glad you approve . ashley : approve ? it 's extraordinary ! neil : well , well , look at you , spreading butter all over my pancakes . ashley : what are you saying ? i 'm here to celebrate the success of my friend . neil : devon and i have a long road ahead of us before we start turning any profits . you know , mergeron is a beast . it 's full of moving parts . ashley : right , and with such a diversified company , there must be some areas that you 're not familiar with . neil : just a few . uh - huh . ashley : are there ? yeah , i would think . um , do you and devon have the right team in place ? i 'm sure it 's not that easy to find somebody that has the wide range of experience that , um , you know , would be required . neil : now we get to the mysterious reason why ashley is here . phyllis : so are you gon na make me start guessing ? jack : about what ? phyllis : whatever it is you did to get victoria 's fling with benjamin a good hard shove . jack : oh ! you mean the little flower arrangement i sent to victoria -- and by little , i mean , absolutely lovely . phyllis : [ gasps ] you didn't . jack : no , you 're correct -- hochman did . a flower arrangement so lovely , it would melt the heart of even the toughest female c.e.o . hochman may have an enormous appetite for acquisitions . with mergers , he 's a gentleman . phyllis : it 's probably been months since she 's received flowers . you are an evil , evil man . jack : well , thank you very much . phyllis : all right . what 's next ? i 'm in . jack : i think we need to tread carefully . after all , what would your boyfriend think if he found out you were trying to sabotage his bread and butter ? billy : come on . you do n't think this is overkill ? victoria : i think it 's a thoughtful and innocent gesture . billy : oh , benny hochman does not do innocent , okay ? do you know what this says , victoria ? this says , `` i 'm sorry that i ca n't apply my corporate raider skills on your company , but your gorgeous body is fair game . `` victoria : knock it off , billy . billy : you know what , maybe i should sit down with benny boy and find out where you are in his plundering to - do list . victoria : okay , i said enough ! you do n't see me grilling you about phyllis , do you ? when 's the last time you two `` plundered `` each other ? please , tell me all the details and be sure to be as graphic as possible . additional sponsorship ashley : somebody who understands all the ins and outs of mergeron -- now that would be a savvy hire . neil : and by someone , you mean dina . ashley : it could help her , and it could help you . neil : you want me to hire your mother at her own former company in a lesser position ? ashley : would it be kind of easy to just give her a vague but somewhat important - sounding title ? neil : you know what you do ? you keep me on my toes . you do . um , i never expected to be having this conversation with you , though . the last we spoke , the relationship that you were having with your mother was kind of ... ashley : oh , was very dysfunctional and terrible and ... neil : yeah . all of that . ashley : yeah , well , you know what ? you 're not wrong , which i 'm sure is why this must seem very strange . but i 'll tell you that , um , even though my relationship with my mother has been dysfunctional ... she is in pain . and i ca n't ignore it . neil : care to share a little bit more ? if i 'm not prying ... ashley : no . you 're not prying . i think my mother regrets selling mergeron . i think she 's suffering from depression because i think she feels that she put herself out to pasture . neil : i got to be honest with you , i noticed it , too . dina came to me , asking me to be more involved . your mother -- she 's a wicked negotiator . devon and i agreed that with her sitting on the board that she could consult , occasionally , at our discretion . but at the end of the day , it 's our company . we call the shots . ashley : i know this is a huge , huge favor to ask of you , but is there any way you could just give her something to do ? neil : yeah , ashley , i -- yeah , i could , but you and i both know that 's a slippery slope . i mean , it 's only natural that your mother -- she would start overstepping her boundaries , and not to mention how it would look to the business world . ashley : oh , yeah , so you buy mergeron , and then you have to run to madame mergeron to show you how to run the company . neil : exactly . ashley : okay , i get it . that 's not exactly the image that you want to project . so no hard feelings for saying no . neil : thank you . i also do n't want to come off as an ogre with no compassion . depression is a very serious condition . it affects people her age a lot . ashley : mm - hmm . neil : so , with that in mind , i wish her the best , and her very beautiful , caring daughter . ashley : thank you . by the way , you are far too handsome to be an ogre , okay ? neil : oh , the ogre line -- yeah , that right there , that was a little fishing expedition . ashley : i figured . i figured . uh - huh . neil : so i hope you find another way to help your mama . ashley : thank you . take care . neil : you too , ash . you , too . phyllis : for the record , i am not trying to sabotage brash & sassy ! i would be delighted if benjamin could pull them out of their rut . it 'd keep billy from spending every waking moment trying to keep his ex 's company afloat . jack : would you also be delighted to see victoria spend her every non - waking moment in the arms of our dear friend ben ? phyllis : there is nothing wrong with wishing victoria some happiness . god knows she 's spent enough time looking for it . jack : you know , this ben is a bit of a wild card . if he inflicts real damage on brash & sassy ! , i need to know i can trust you to keep my role in this scheme a deep , dark secret . phyllis : oh , that 's right . you do n't want nikki to find out that you 're trying to crush her daughter 's company . jack : we each have an ax to grind here . so , we 're agreed ? no reason to share our little joint venture with anyone . billy : sorry . i was just kidding . i did n't mean to upset you . victoria : yeah , well , i was trying to play along . it came out too harsh . benjamin -- no big surprise -- was a big flirt . can we just please leave it at that ? billy : you know what , you 're right . i do n't have a right to ask you about your personal life or your love life . if you want to ... date benjamin hochman , you go right ahead . victoria : i 'm sure that he would much rather get his claws in my company than get involved with me romantically . billy : ooh , i do n't know about that . but it does n't matter because you are the sole owner of brash & sassy ! , so if he wants any stake in this company , he 's got to go through you . and if you ask me , i think that 's hopeless . unless , of course , you think he 's so charming that he can talk you into anything . ashley : hello , graham . graham : ashley . always a pleasure to see you . ashley : oh , well , i 'm glad i could cheer you up . graham : did i seem cheerless ? oh . because i 'm drinking alone in the middle of the day ? i thought a bloody mary might go well with my omelette . ashley : well , it is the perfect combination , is n't it ? graham : so , uh , were you up at the hamilton - winters group ? ashley : yeah . i had n't seen the offices yet , so neil showed me around . graham : anyone else around ? devon ? dina ? ashley : no . should dina be there ? graham : no , no . just a -- just a random thought . do n't think me rude . i was just about to leave , actually . ashley : uh , actually , i do n't understand . you seem kind of worried . what 's going on ? graham : nothing 's going on . i 'm just wondering where dina went . that 's all . ashley : does dina usually inform you about her slightest move ? graham : hardly . but she 'll usually let me know if she 's going out , in case she needs a driver . ashley : until recently , my mother ran a multinational conglomerate . you 're gon na tell me that she ca n't speed - dial a car service ? graham : you 're making much too much of this , ashley . ashley : have you noticed some kind of a change in her mood lately ? graham : what kind of change ? ashley : well , she does n't seem as happy as she was when she first came to town . graham : she 's perfectly happy , as far as i 'm aware . ashley : she told me that she misses mergeron . me . somebody she never confides in . graham : well , this is a big change for her . ashley : mm - hmm . graham : and i suppose she 's been a little bit more reflective since we 've been in genoa city . you probably caught her at a wistful moment . above all , dina 's practical . she knows her c.e.o . days ended when she signed away mergeron . ashley : did it ever dawn on you that maybe she regrets selling the company ? graham : she 's never said anything like that to me . ashley : maybe because you 're the one that pushed her into selling in the first place . yes , my mother told me that , too . and ever since she did , i ca n't stop wondering -- why would you push her to go down a path that she clearly did not want to follow ? tessa : if i seem jumpy , it 's probably because tonight is the most important thing to happen to me and my music . apart from you signing me to your label . devon : tessa , i do n't want you to be scared about tonight . you 're just doing your thing . tessa : in front of microphones , mixing boards , producers ... mariah : you 've recorded songs before . tessa : yeah , demos on my phone . whole different league . devon : it 's the same artistry , it 's the same nuance , it 's the same great melodies and lyrics . the only different , literally , is that you 're gon na have top - notch talent and equipment to capture it . you 'll be fine . and you 're gon na have some of the people who believe in you the most there , starting with us . mariah : wait . me ? i 'm -- i 'm gon na be there ? are you sure that 's okay ? devon : you got something better to do ? mariah : no , i just do n't want to get in the way . devon : tessa asked me to make sure that you came , all right ? we feel the same way about you being there . you 'll be the perfect cheerleader tonight . tessa : yeah , a friendly face never hurts . nick : well , it looks like our expansion is gon na have to stay in the planning stages . noah : why , what happened ? nick : well , what i was gon na tell you before that call came in was while you were gone , i put in some bids on some locations in the markets we talked about . i mean , some buildings that i thought would be just perfect . noah : that 's fantastic ! how many ? nick : three so far , but i 'm batting zero . noah : you kidding me ? they all fell through ? nick : who knew erie , pennsylvania , was such a hotbed of real estate ? i 'm sorry to get your hopes up . i thought i 'd have some cool news for you when you got home . noah : no , dude -- listen . that 's awesome , all right ? it 's awesome . do you have any idea how much it means to me how pumped you are about this project of ours ? nick : so you 're not upset that i put in the bids without you ? i mean , not that it 's getting us anywhere . we may still get that place in canton , though , with the cool loft space . it 's the one on top . noah : dad . this is sick . nick : yeah . right ? i mean , check out the square footage . noah : it 's huge ! i mean , you could have a deejay booth , a dance floor , a separate performance area . check this out -- i love this . freight elevators ? nick : yeah , and it 's already soundproofed . noah : and you know what ? if we do n't get it , no worries . there 's gon na be lots more . plenty of them . nick : you got it , man . i 'm not letting our dream die that easily . noah : keep hunting . nick : yes , sir . noah : what ? nick : i -- i do n't know , i mean ... i ca n't stop thinking about how lucky i am , you know ? i do n't want it to sound sappy , but ... our relationship means everything to me . noah : look , you know i feel the same way , and fyi -- it 's not sappy , all right ? you 're an incredible dad . nick : thanks , bud . means a lot . you know , you could put that in a father 's day card once in a while . noah : i think that got lost in the mail somewhere . nick : we have the same conversation every july . noah : yeah . it 's our tradition ! nick : [ laughs ] you know i 'm just giving you a hard time , right ? noah : yeah . it 's one of your best qualities , your sense of humor . nick : yes , clearly , a dna contribution from my mother since i did n't get any from my dad . noah : uh - oh . something happen while i was away with grandpa ? nick : [ sighs ] you know what he did -- he , um ... he removed me from the family account at the athletic club . noah : as if you ca n't afford your own membership . nick : he knows that . it 's just , uh -- it 's a warning shot , you know ? billy : maybe one day i 'll outgrow my fondness for childish taunting . victoria : yeah , i doubt it . billy : either way , i have no doubt that you can outwit benny hochman any day of the week , not a problem . game over . victoria : ugh , i hope it will be when i make it clear that brash & sassy ! is not a wounded gazelle that he can just pounce on no matter how many overblown bouquets he sends . billy : do you want to practice clarifying on me ? come on . i 'll be benjamin . [ clears throat ] [ as benjamin hochman ] `` hey . how you doing ? my mother always said that i should be a gentleman , and gentlemen always have moves . you want to see my moves ? `` victoria : you know what , i 'm really not in the mood for role play right now . billy : come on , really ? victoria : i 've got everything under control here , so why do n't you take the rest of the day off ? i insist . billy : [ normal voice ] okay . you 're the boss . okay . see you tomorrow . jack : your boyfriend was probably there when the flowers arrived . be sure to call me with any juicy details . phyllis : the same goes for you for any over - the - top romantic gestures from our pal benjamin . you 're very good in this area . kind of like a twisted cyrano . jack : thank you . i think . billy : hey there . jack : well , i think we 're done here . billy : so you two do lunch now , huh ? phyllis : well , i am justifying my paycheck . jack : making sure we get our money 's worth before we send your girlfriend off to see our fenmore 's satellite stores . phyllis : do n't you worry , jack . i wo n't abuse my per diem . i will limit my meals to the 99-cent menus . jack : you know what ? go for it . supersize . after all , you 're not insisting that we shoot an exorbitant commercial in hollywood , one that will never air . take care . billy : i do n't miss him . phyllis : good . 'cause i want you to focus on us and the little bit of time we have before i leave . for example ... billy : i suddenly miss you already . phyllis : [ laughs ] good . you have a lot to do with this whole rehabbing brash & sassy ! billy : yeah . phyllis : i mean , what 's going on with that ? how are things going ? billy : you know , irons in the fire , other fires to put out . phyllis : do you mean that benjamin hochman guy you were worried about ? how did the dinner with victoria go ? billy : apparently , she made a heck of an impression on the corporate raider . phyllis : really ? tell me more . devon : you 'd be proud , the way i worked that festival , man . made a lot of contacts . i saw about five different acts that we could probably sign . and i was able to promote tessa to the press and some satellite radio programmers . and we 're heading to the studio tonight with a lot of momentum . neil : yeah ? devon : yep . neil : well , sounds like you checked all the boxes , my man . devon : as many as i could . neil : what about the `` romantic getaway `` box ? devon : i mean , it was n't the weekend for two that i had planned , but , uh , mariah and i had a great time . neil : yeah ? devon : yeah . neil : yeah , well , i saw some amazing pictures of that hotel online . a couple of nights there , you should be good . devon : yeah . yeah , i think , uh -- i guess mariah thinks so , because , uh , she dropped the `` l `` word on me . neil : well , that 's big news . devon : yeah . neil : a little soon , though , maybe ... devon : maybe . neil : yeah ? how do you feel about it ? you feel the same way ? devon : i do n't know if i do . i did n't say it back . neil : what stopped you ? tessa : oh ! mariah : whoa ! surf 's up ! oh , my gosh . oh , my gosh . tessa : you ca n't take me anywhere ! mariah : wow , you really -- you really are jittery . tessa : well , i was n't lying to devon . walking into a recording studio and leaving with a forever version of my song , it 's -- it 's scary . mariah : well , it 's just like devon said . yes , somebody is gon na be in the other room pushing the `` record `` button , but it 's basically you performing a set , just like you always do , with a ton of confidence . tessa : well , do n't tell devon , but i 'm not sure how much of that is an act and how much of it is real . mariah : tessa , you have become one of my best friends for a reason . and part of that is me being able to tell what 's real about you . your heart . and , yeah , especially your talent . it does n't get more real than that . tessa : see , that 's just it . i mean , since i came here , people have reached out and shown me more kindness than anyone in my entire life . you , nikki , noah ... people like me , we do n't get this lucky . devon is taking a humongous chance on me , and i feel a lot of pressure to not let any of you down . mariah : you 're not going to . and i wo n't let you . what kind of sucky cheerleader would i be if i did ? [ both chuckle ] ashley : is there some reason why you ca n't answer my question , graham ? graham : you 're over - simplifying . dina talked about scaling back for some time before deciding to go through with the sale . i ca n't stress this enough , ashley . it was her decision to step down and cash out . ashley : and you supported it . graham : absolutely . do n't you think your mother 's earned some downtime so she can relax with her family ? ashley : oh , so now you 're in favor of her spending time with her family ? well , that 's definitely a switch . graham : not at all ! i 've never said one word against the idea . ashley : it 's obvious to all of us , graham , how you feel about the abbott family . graham : well , i 'm sorry you feel that way . ashley : i bet you are . just because you 've become closer to her than we 've been does n't mean we 're gon na blindly accept everything you tell us about her . graham : what is you think i 'm deceiving you about ? ashley : our mother has never been a family person . she 's never been the kind of person that stops and smells the roses , graham . i mean , the main reason that she stayed away from genoa city all these years was because she preferred the glamorous life and excitement . graham : and people change . ashley : yeah . and they 're also pushed . and manipulated . graham : i did n't push your mother , ashley . do you honestly think anyone could ? ashley : well , since we 're being so honest with each other , it absolutely serves your purposes for my mother to walk away from mergeron . does it not ? dina : well , well , well . what seems to be the problem , darlings , hmm ? `` the young and the restless `` will continue . graham : ashley and i were just having a passionate debate about the perfect bloody mary recipe . ashley : no , we weren't . we were n't having a debate at all . i found graham here , he was actually pretty upset because apparently , you had n't informed him as to where you were going . i thought that was ludicrous , but i mean , you know , if that 's your arrangement ... dina : it damn well isn't . graham : i tried to explain that to her . dina : [ chuckles ] graham does n't expect me to run my every move by him . nor would i . ashley : well , i must have misconstrued . based on his behavior . so , you actually went to fenmore 's and then downtown to the mall ? dina : oh , yes , i -- i went shopping . there were a few things i bought -- some essentials . ashley : yeah , i see that . wow . graham : shall we go up to the room and put your new things away ? ashley : actually , graham , would you mind doing that for my mother ? i 'd like to have a word with her . alone . graham : of course . ashley : i do n't know , you at the mall -- it 's just kind of mind - blowing . dina : well , i 'm -- i 'm doing all sorts of things i 've never done before . ashley : you are . dina : mm - hmm . ashley : and i want you to , and i want you to have a lot of fun doing it . dina : thank you . ashley : so maybe the next time you have the need for retail therapy , you can let me know , and then we can go kidnap abby and then we can have a shopping adventure ! dina : [ laughs ] well , if you 're thinking of prescribing more shopping to fill my days , that is n't about to happen . and now i have to figure out how to spend the rest of this one . billy : so i think that jaded , amoral benjamin hochman found a new way to squeeze thrills out of a corporate raid -- go after the single , sexy c.e.o . at the same time . victoria shot him out of the sky . although , it barely slowed him down . you should have saw the bouquet of flowers that he sent her . phyllis : oh , so he 's a greed - fueled capitalist and a gentleman ? billy : gentleman ? come on . he 's not a gentleman based off his reputation alone . phyllis : maybe victoria made him want to be a better man . billy : [ scoffs ] well , i 'm not saying she ca n't have that effect on a guy , but he 's not good enough for victoria . phyllis : are you jealous ? [ knocks on door ] benjamin : knock , knock . hey , hey . victoria : hi . benjamin . come on in . benjamin : well , i have to admit , you continue to surprise me . victoria : oh ? benjamin : well , i did n't expect to get a text inviting me here to your private command center with no underlings around to distract us , so ... i find that encouraging . victoria : well , you should n't because i -- i did n't ask you here to pick up where we left off this morning . benjamin : sure about that ? victoria : i 'm pretty certain . last night was just a one - time deal . it 's never gon na happen again . benjamin : up to you . victoria : the flowers were really exquisite , but just more proof that i think i left you with false expectations . benjamin : the , um , flowers ? victoria : yeah . they 're a little hard to miss . benjamin : good , uh , they followed my instructions perfectly . i 'm just surprised that they got here so soon . victoria : well , you should n't have been so extravagant . benjamin : but since i was , have n't i at least earned the right to confide something personal , straight from the heart ? ashley : i 'm as certain as i can be without a medical diagnosis . i think our mother 's suffering from depression , jack . jack : well , what 's she done now ? ashley : she went to neil and she pleaded with him to give her some kind of an active role with mergeron . jack : well , that sounds more like controlling than depression . ashley : okay , well , how about this ? after he said no , she comforted herself by going to the mall . she spent a lot of money at a gadget store . now , does that sounds like something our mother would do ? jack : no , but it also does n't sound like absolute clinical proof . ashley : okay , but it does sound like she 's bored and frustrated , right ? guess who pushed her into selling mergeron . jack : nobody pushes her into anything . ashley : graham did . because she 's not the powerhouse that she used to be , jack . and he has way too much influence over her . that 's another big sign that something 's not right . jack : ash , it is a sad fact of life that people retire too early . they 've been so busy with work , they have n't developed a hobby , and then when they leave their careers ... ashley : exactly . they get lost . they start pushing away their friends and their family . and pretty soon , the loneliness just starts catching up with them , and ... jack : before you know it ... ashley : exactly . now , you tell me -- whose purpose does that scenario fit ? dina : i do n't appreciate you making ashley worry about me . graham : i covered with her . dina : oh , so that 's why she thinks you supervise my every move , hmm ? graham : well , you threw me off guard by disappearing this morning . dina : well , i went shopping ! big deal ! and i was n't about to tell you because i did n't want to disturb your time at the gym during your workout . graham : you could have texted . just keep me informed . that 's all i ask . what 's this ? dina : that happens to be a juicer . they 're very healthy and it 's , uh , quite all the rage . graham : this would hardly be considered an essential . room service will deliver fresh juice any time of the day or night . dina : oh , did it ever occur to you that i might want to make my own ? you know , maybe -- maybe i 'm sick of room service . did you ever think of that ? and maybe i miss having a kitchen . and maybe i miss having a home . [ door slams ] devon : you know , mariah and i have a really good thing going , and i could go on all day about how great she is . neil : yeah . devon : but after hilary , i just -- i feel like ... neil : yeah , you know what you need ? you need someone who 's totally the opposite to hilary , and that person , my man , is mariah , who really seems to have fallen for you . devon : i know , but that 's what worries me a little bit because , you know , hilary and i started throwing around the word `` love `` way too early , and that 's part of what messed everything up for us , part of what messed me up . neil : mm , does mariah know any of this ? devon : no . her love speech took me by surprise . i did n't -- i did n't really know what to say . neil : well , if you do n't know what to say , then i suggest you just , uh , talk to her . and remember , no matter how you feel or you do n't feel , total honesty -- it 's the way to go every time . ashley : so you agree with me ? jack : that a vital dina engaged in her life is the surest way to slow graham 's big payday ? yeah . not that he 'd ever admit that . ashley : i was reminded today , he 's so slipper and clever . jack : well , lucky for us , i 've been called slippery and clever . ashley : that 's true . so , do you have a plan ? jack : we have to keep her vital and engaged . that means we have to keep her close by , keep an eye on her . what if we offered her a job here ? ashley : jack , our mother working here at jabot is the last thing that i want . devon : hey there . hi . mariah : hi . hey . how you doing ? devon : good . how you doing ? mariah : oh , my gosh . wow . it 's , um ... it 's a lot later than i thought . i guess we got to get to the studio . i 'm sorry , i should have come downstairs and met you at the office . devon : it 's fine . it 's fine . do n't worry about that . before we go , um , there 's a couple of things that i want to clarify . mariah : like what ? devon : you told me that you loved me in san francisco , and i just stood there , i did n't say anything back , and i think that you deserve a response . mariah : look , that 's -- that 's not why i said it , and i did n't want you to feel pressured into saying anything . i just kind of blurted it out , in this moment -- a very enjoyable moment -- but we can just kind of leave it at that . devon : i do appreciate you saying that , but i need you to know that i did n't mean to hurt you if i did by not responding . mariah : you didn't . devon : the truth , mariah , is i 'm not ready to say that word yet . but i 'm committed to you . and i 'm not gon na lie to you , 'cause i respect you too much just to say something that i 'm not ready to say . and i really do hope you can understand that . mariah : of course i do . and just so you know , that was the sweetest non- '' i love you `` i 've ever heard in my life . from the most amazing guy . devon : well , i really hope that you do n't move onto somebody more amazing before i 'm able to catch up to you . mariah : there 's no one else . nick : no , crystal has n't been back . i promise you , i 'm keeping an eye out for her . okay . i 'll call you . bye , sharon . noah : crystal 's that , uh , the runaway , the one that called mom on the hotline ? nick : yeah , i , uh -- i found her hiding behind a dumpster out back and brought her in here , but then she took off again . now your mom 's even more worried . noah : such a sad story , you know ? it chills you . i just feel for these kids at the mercy of the world , no family to count on to protect them . it just makes you value what you have that much more , you know ? nick : sure does . noah : you know , dad ... you and me , you do n't have to worry about us . the problems you have with grandpa -- like , that could never happen between us . tessa : hi , guys . noah : hey ! nick : hey . noah : how are you ? tessa : good . noah : dad ! next time you see tessa , she will officially be neil and devon 's first hit recording artist for their streaming service . tessa : well , i do n't know about the `` hit `` part . nick : noah told me you 're in the studio tonight . congratulations . tessa : thank you . noah : so , you ready to make some magic ? tessa : yeah . i ca n't wait , actually . i , uh ...

[ phone ringing ] sarah : just xander . rex : well , answer it ! sarah : oh , you want me to answer it ? just because you think that he can convince me to turn myself in and take mickey back ? yeah , i 'm sorry , that 's not gon na happen . xander : oh , come on , sarah , answer . damn , voice mail . sarah , i know you do n't want to talk to me , but i really have to talk to you , so please , will you please call me back ? please ? lani : i know what i did was wrong . but kristen was desperate . eli : yeah , of course she was . she knew victor was awake and was gon na out her for attempted murder . she wanted to get the hell out of here as fast as she can and you helped her . lani : eli , her baby is missing . eli : oh , my god , she fed you a sob story . lani : it 's the truth . eli : it 's also true that kristen is a wild card . okay , with -- with all this new freedom that you 've given her , what if she goes after sarah the same way she went after victor ? lani : she wo n't do that . eli : because she pinky sweared ? lani : eli -- eli : why do n't you -- i do n't understand how you do n't get it . kristen manipulated you and she used you as her accomplice and -- how did you let her trick you like that ? lani : she did n't trick me , eli . her baby is out there . the baby that she has n't held in over a year . and if i did n't help her , she may never get to see her daughter again . and how can you not understand that ? eli : look , i get it . kristen 's going through hell . but we took an oath to uphold the law . lani : some things are more important than the law . eli : well , that 's not for you to decide . lani : if i found out that our son was alive and that some monster purposely kept him away from me , i probably would have done exactly what kristen did . but if you ca n't understand that , eli , if you ca n't understand that a mother would do whatever -- whatever she can for her child , then cuff me . ( denise ) my husband has heart disease , ciara : okay , thank you . thank you so much . well , the cops are on their way . okay , ben , you 're hurt . ben : it 's bruised ribs and a bump on the head . i 've had worse . ciara : so there 's no way that i can convince you to go to the hospital ? ben : no . i mean , there might be one thing that could help . ciara : what ? ben : [ grunts ] but already , i 'm better , i 'm better , that helped . ciara : yeah , yeah , yeah . okay , well , do you recognize who attacked you ? ben : no , i 've never seen them before . ciara : and do you think that they robbed the place or something ? or -- ben : i think it was more of a warning . ciara : a warning ? for what , ben ? i do n't understand . ben : i think they thought i was jake . jake : there was nothing about that kiss that i liked . gabi : stop lying . jake : i 'm not lying . not about that or about who i am . and i 'm gon na say this loud and clear , so listen up , okay ? you 're a complete stranger to me . i have zero feelings for you . gabi : okay , so when i fainted in the square , why did you rush over and try to help me ? jake : because i 'm a reasonably decent human being . gabi : because you 're stefan . jake : no , i 'm not ! gabi : yes , you are ! okay , you probably just do n't remember , or you had your memory wiped , but you are stefan . i know this in my heart . jake : are you taking any prescription medication ? gabi : i know you think i 'm crazy , but if you knew how many people have come back from the dead in this town , really . jake : okay , you know what , i will admit one thing . gabi : what ? jake : i 'm very envious of your husband . gabi : you are ? jake : yeah , because at least where he is , you ca n't harass him the way you 're harassing me . so i 'm gon na say this one last time before i lose my cool . get the hell out ! gabi : i 'm not going anywhere . lani : what are you waiting for , mr . law and order ? arrest me . [ phone ringing ] eli : hey , commander , what can i do for you ? okay . i -- i 'll be right there . thanks . lani : what did he want ? eli : a call came in through the 911 system . there was a possible assault and battery . they want a detective on the scene . what are you doing ? lani : we 're partners . i 'm going with you . eli : no , i ca n't let you do that , now that i know that upholding the law is n't important to you . xander : oh , look at you . on the mend . how are you feeling , uncle ? victor : like i got stabbed in the chest by a knife - wielding maniac . they for me ? xander : oh , yeah , i thought maybe they 'd cheer you up . victor : nothing to be cheery about lately . unless you 've got some good news ? xander : i -- i went to see maggie . victor : and ? xander : she knows . she knows what she did to sarah and her baby . sarah : all packed . i will make sure that someone finds you as soon as mickey and i are very far away . it was really good to see you . okay . i will take it off but as long as you promise you wo n't scream . rex : ow . > gabi : well ? rex : you ca n't just leave like this . sarah : but i am . rex : why are you going ? sarah : germany . or switzerland . or the kingdom of tonga . i do n't really know . but wherever it is , i 'm not going to tell you so that you can e - blast it to the world . rex : can you just think again about what you 're doing ? think about what this is gon na do to this little girl . sarah : i am thinking about mickey . we are gon na go and we 're gon na start over together somewhere . and it 's gon na be great . so you can beg me to do the right thing all you want , but i do n't have a choice . rex : no , you do have a choice , we talked about this -- sarah : nope , and this conversation is over . rex : oh ! sarah : i really am sorry for hitting you over the head and -- and for this and all of it . jeanne marie : bonjour , cherie . jack : all right . there you go . jennifer : thank you . jack : and now , let 's order something to eat . jennifer : no , jack , i 'm really not hungry -- jack : jennifer , you have n't eaten all day . jennifer : i just -- i just want to go back to the hospital -- jack : we ca n't go back to the hospital . we just came from the hospital . all right ? we just came from the hospital . and we are here now . we need a break . we need a break . if anything happens , chad will call us or text . jennifer : you 're right , you 're right . i just keep thinking about abigail when she was a little girl , you know ? she was the smartest one in her class , always got all as . and her teachers would -- would always say that she was so kind and hardworking . jack : hardworking , kind . kind of sounds like her mom . jennifer : i do n't know about that . but all that to say , jack , i brought this up because it just -- it does n't seem fair , and i know that life is not fair , but abigail has struggled so hard and she has overcome this , and she got her health back for her children , and now it 's like everything has started all over -- jack : no , this is not a recurrence of the mental illness . it is not . she was poisoned . she was drugged . jennifer : jack , i know that , but it brings back all these memories , this -- this nightmare when she was going through so much . you do n't know , jack , you do n't know what she went through -- jack : it 's not -- it 's not the same . it 's not the same . all right ? when this drug , when this poison 's out of her system , she 's gon na be herself again . she will . jennifer : that is not what marlena said , jack . jack : that 's -- that -- she -- marlena said -- all right , she warned us that there could be some kind of lingering problems , but -- but i ca n't go there . i can not . and please , please do n't -- do n't go there yourself . we 've got to be optimistic . jennifer : we have to be optimistic , you 're right , jack . but we also have to be optimistic that they are going to prove that gabi is the one who did this to abigail . again . to make someone lose her mind again ? nothing could be more cruel . jack : if -- when -- when it is proven that gabi did indeed poison our little girl , i hope to hell that the sadistic -- i just hope she finally gets what she deserves . jake : how many times do i have to say this ? your time 's up , so get the hell out . gabi : i will . as soon as you admit that you 're my husband . jake : not gon na happen because it 's not true . gabi : could you get me a glass of water ? it could be a while . jake : i could get you a glass of get the hell out of here because this is trespassing , and last time i checked , that 's illegal . gabi : well , if you wanted me out of here so badly , why do n't you just call the police ? mmm , interesting . yeah , you do n't want to do that . hmm . is that because you 're living under an assumed name , stefan ? jake : all right . that 's it . i 've tried to be nice but this is over . eli : hey . ciara : hey . oh , wow , i 'm so glad that you 're here . eli : what happened ? ciara : oh , ben was assaulted . eli : is there any surveillance footage ? ben : no , no , no . eli : can you describe them ? ben : a few guys , big . in their , like , 20s maybe . one guy , caucasian , shaved head . the other guy , dark skin , dark hair , he was in all black . attacked me with a crowbar , was wearing boots , both of them . eli : did they rob the place ? ben : no . eli : do you know why they assaulted you ? ben : they thought i was my boss . eli : your boss ? when did you start working here ? ben : today . eli : hell of a first day on the job . where 's this boss ? ben : he 's upstairs with gabi . eli : gabi ? what does she have to do with this ? gabi : [ speaking spanish ] get your hands off me ! jake : not until you get it through that thick skull of yours that my name is not -- eli : stefan dimera ? lani : kristen , it 's me . look , have you heard from theo yet ? please call me when you get this , okay ? hey , brady , what are you doing here ? brady : d.a . giddens overruled your boyfriend . charges have been dropped , which means i 'm free to go and free to try to find kristen and track down our daughter . which is not gon na be easy , lani , because kristen has disappeared . lani : wait , brady . there 's something you need to know . victor : you told maggie the truth ? what the hell were you thinking ? xander : just do n't upset yourself , uncle , okay ? victor : you 're the one that 's upsetting me , damn it . after all the trouble we went through ? could n't just keep your mouth shut ? xander : i did n't have a choice . another inmate was going on about how you 'd been stabbed . maggie was frantic . she was asking all sorts of questions and she warned me if i did n't give her the answers , she 'd get them somewhere else . but would n't you prefer she heard it for me than from some random person in her cell block ? victor : i 'd rather she did n't have to hear it at all . xander : i know . victor : how 'd she take it ? xander : how do you think ? learning that she killed her own granddaughter , she -- she fell apart . all i could do was hold her . broke my heart . victor : i got to go to maggie and make sure she 's okay . xander : you 're in no condition to go anywhere , uncle . just stop . sarah : jeanne marie , what are you doing here ? we were just heading out . [ muffled screaming ] jeanne marie : sorry i caught you at a bad time . just wanted to see how you and la petite fille are doing . sarah : oh , yeah , we are -- we 're doing great . yeah , we 're fine . like i said , we are in a bit of a hurry , so i wo n't -- rex : ah , come on ! jeanne marie : what 's that ? is someone else here ? who is that ? your migraine strikes , and the struggle is real . eli : stefan ? is that really you ? gabi : even a cop thinks that you 're stefan . jake : you 're a cop ? eli : detective eli grant , salem pd . jake : name 's jake . and apparently i look like this lady 's dead husband . is that a crime ? eli : no , but assault is . jake : assault ? no , no , no , no , no . she would not leave my apartment . i had no choice but to drag her out . eli : no , i 'm not talking about her . i 'm talking about him . jake : dude . what the hell happened ? you okay ? ben : i 'm fine . ciara : no , he 's not . eli : well , while you were upstairs , two men attacked him . jake : attacked you , why ? they take anything ? ben : no , man , they did n't want money . they thought i was you . eli : maybe you can tell me why two men would want to beat you up . victor : maggie needs me . xander : you need to get well ! do n't worry about maggie . i 've -- i 've taken care of her . victor : you certainly have . xander : what i mean is , i contacted will , told him what happened . he 's on his way to statesville now to be with her . i also called sarah . victor : and ? xander : straight to voicemail . victor : so you have no idea where she and the baby are ? xander : not yet . i 'm gon na find her before anyone else does and straighten out this mess . lani : what if i could help you find kristen ? brady : what are you talking about ? eli said she ran . lani : i know where she is . brady : you -- you helped her , did n't you ? lani : yeah , and i probably should n't have . but kristen has the chance to see her baby again , the one that she thought was dead . brady , she has a chance to love her and raise her and hold her . and i knew that if she got arrested that that might not happen . brady : does e -- eli know ? lani : yeah , and he is not happy with me . brady : you really put a lot on the line , lani . lani : i did . because i would give anything , brady , i would do anything if i got the second chance to have my baby boy back in my arms . and kristen deserves that . brady : thank you . lani , where is she ? lani : i took her to a safe place where we could figure out where the baby is . brady : do you have any idea where rachel and sarah might be ? lani : no , not exactly , but we did -- we did come up with a lead . jeanne marie : that 's your husband , is n't it ? sarah : yep , that 's -- that 's chad . jeanne marie : lovebirds back in the nest . i 'm so happy to hear it . sarah : mm - hmm , yeah , we 've never been happier . but like i said , we -- we 've got to go , so . jeanne marie : hallo ? monsieur chad ? jeanne marie . [ speaks french ] rex : [ muffled speaking ] jeanne marie : i do n't know -- i do n't understand american accents i 'm not very good with them . [ speaking french ] depression . jennifer : no , julie , we have no more news . i 'm just at the pub with jack and we 're gon na -- we 're just gon na get some food . oh , wait , can i call you back ? i have another call coming in . all right , love you , bye - bye . it 's chad . hey , what 's up ? what ? no ! jack : what ? jennifer : abigail 's missing . she 's not in her room . jack : oh , no , oh , my god . jennifer : we are on our way right now . do n't leave ! jack : all right , all right , right , all right , let 's go ! jake : i have no idea who would want to beat me up . eli : you 're not in some kind of trouble ? maybe pissed some people off ? jake : none of the above . gabi : well , i mean , you do have a knack for ticking people off . jake : you know , maybe whoever these thugs were thought that i was this stefan guy she wo n't shut up about . it 's not like he did n't run with some shifty people . gabi : how dare you ? jake : just stating the facts . gabi : well , you 're wrong . jake : am i ? gabi : mm - hmm . jake : since everyone wants to hang this guy 's name around my neck , i did a little bit of research , and apparently , stefan dimera is an entitled master of the universe kind of guy who does n't let a little thing like ethics get in between him and what he wants . so it is understandable that maybe if somebody thought he was alive that they 'd come after him , although the widow dimera thinks that he was quite the catch , right ? eli : is that possible ? you think the two men that attacked you could 've thought that you were stefan instead of jake ? lani : once kristen 's phone was charged , we saw that rex left her a message . brady : rex brady calls kristen out of the blue ? i mean , why ? what did the message say ? lani : not much . just that he wanted her to call him back and that it was important . brady : did he say why ? lani : no . and that 's the weird thing . then the message cut midsentence . brady : you have no idea where this call came from ? lani : no . but i did call the hospital and they said he was at a medical conference in paris . he was supposed to show up for work the next day and he didn't . brady : rex brady is in paris and he calls kristen about something important , so -- lani : right . but , i mean , he has to be with sarah , right ? brady : right , right . lani : which is why we called theo and asked him if he could trace the number of the exact location . i tried calling kristen before you got here but she did n't answer . brady : did she -- did she -- did she call you back ? lani : no , not yet . brady : lani , can you take me to her , please ? lani : yes , of course . [ phone ringing ] brady : is that -- is that kristen ? lani : no , it 's theo . victor : have they arrested kristen yet ? xander : she got away from the police . could be anywhere . victor : you 're worried she 's gon na go after sarah . xander : oh , i 'm sure of it . i 'm afraid of what she 'll do when she finds her . i mean , if she 'd stick a knife in your chest for switching a baby , imagine what she 'll do to sarah for kidnapping her . victor : yes , then we have to make sure that the police get to kristen first . once she 's put in jail for stabbing me , we wo n't have to worry about her going after sarah or brady . or anyone else . jeanne marie : hallo ? monsieur chad ? are you all right ? rex : [ muffled speaking ] i think he has pain . bad pain . [ speaking french ] sarah : oh , jet leg . and he 's got a bad cold -- the flu . he 's got a terrible , terrible sore throat . poor man ca n't even talk . so , yeah . jeanne marie : my god . that 's terrible . sarah : yeah , mickey and i were actually on our way to go get him some cough syrup , like i said , so we 're in a hurry . jeanne marie : yes , but of course . but first , i must say , your wife is a wonderful woman , so you must fix the problems . [ speaking french ] i 'm sorry , maybe if i come a little closer . sarah : i 'm afraid i -- i just ca n't let you do that . eli : i got to get back to the station . ciara : wait , eli , that 's it ? eli : there 's not -- there 's not a lot to go on . i mean , there 's no security footage , there 's no other witnesses . i mean , i 'll file a report with ben 's description , but , sorry , there 's not a lot for me to do at this point . ben : sorry i could n't be more help . it just happened so fast . eli : well , if you remember anything else , just let me know . ben : i will , thank you . eli : and if they return -- jake : which hopefully they do n't , but you will the first to know . hey , detective . ms. dimera here has been harassing me nonstop . she 's been borderline stalking me . gabi : i have not , okay ? jake : and i was about to call the cops , but since you 're here , maybe you could escort her off the premises ? gabi : i 'm not going anywhere . jake : which is why i 'll call the police . i 'd hate to see you drive back to the station and come back all the way over here . gabi : we are not done . eli : no , i think you are . you see , because if he decides to call the cops again , which i would n't blame him if he did , the next officer that comes out here might not be so understanding . gabi : fine , okay , yeah . i 'm gon na go . you do n't have to walk me out . i can find my own way . but i 'm gon na be back . and i am gon na figure out the truth . xander : well , this has certainly blown up in our faces , has n't it ? victor : well , we do damage control . use whatever titan resources you need . find sarah and the baby and make things right . xander : thank you , uncle . i 'm not sure i deserve your generosity . i 've let you down . i would n't blame you if you hated me . victor : no , hate you ? i gave you my father 's drachma on your wedding day . because you 've proven to be a true kiriakis . xander : `` as long as you carry this , your family will carry you . `` victor : you 've done your best to carry the kiriakis family . and for that , i 'm very proud of you . xander : but i 've made such a mess of things . victor : learn how to put your family first . make all the hard choices . you 've come to know that they 're not always easy . sadly , this time , maggie in pieces , sarah and the baby , god knows where . all the work that we did to protect them was all for nothing . xander : not if i can help it . lani : thank you so much , theo . hey , and remember , this stays between us , okay ? i love you , too . brady : so , what do we got , what do we got ? lani : theo did it . brady : he did ? lani : he tracked down the exact location where rex made the call . brady : oh . it 's paris ! lani : yep . brady : does kristen know ? lani : he said that he called her this morning with the news and he was surprised that she had n't called me yet . brady : i 'm not , i 'm not . she 's probably on her way there . lani : yeah , you ca n't blame her , wanting to see her daughter . brady : i 'm more worried about sarah , to be honest with you . lani : wait , no , you do n't -- you do n't think kristen would hurt her ? brady : should we ask victor that question ? i got to go . i got to -- i 'm the only one that can probably talk her out of doing something she 's gon na regret , so ... god , lani , thank you . thank you . lani : you 're welcome . jeanne marie : what is the problem ? why can i not see your husband ? sarah : i 'm sorry . i just -- he could be very contagious , and i -- i would hate it if you caught whatever he has . jeanne marie : you said the flu possibly . sarah : mm - hmm , yeah , i 'm afraid so . jeanne marie : i understand . i will leave you . monsieur , i hope you feel better , and you have learned something from this . it 's time for you to be good to your wife and your baby . sarah : bye , jeanne marie . jake : here . hopefully that 'll help . ben : thanks . jake : i 'm really sorry this happened . ben : i 'm fine . ciara : no , you 're not . ben : it 's okay . ciara : no , it 's not , ben . you got a beating meant for him . jake : like i said , i do n't know anything about this . ben : are you sure about that ? these guys thought i was you , not stefan . jake : that 's very strange . ben : i do n't think it 's that obscure . you know , i did n't tell eli everything . ciara : wait . ben , why not ? why did n't you tell him everything ? ben : because these thugs were looking for something . and clearly they wanted it bad enough to beat the crap out of me . so what was it , jake ? what did they want ? lani : everything okay ? eli : it 's fine . lani : that 's all you 're gon na give me ? eli : ben was assaulted but he 's okay . all right ? apparently it was just mistaken identity . lani : hey , hey . have you decided on what you 're gon na do ? are you gon na tell rafe that i helped kristen escape ? gabi : i need talk to you . lani : gabi , we are in the middle of something . gabi : well , i do n't give a damn . okay , your job is to protect and serve this community . i am part of this community . eli : what is it , gabi ? gabi : i need to talk to a prisoner . eli : who ? gabi : dr. wilhelm rolf . xander : hello , mate . brady : xander . xander : what do you say we get this bird in the air ? kristen : okay , this is the place . hang in there , rachel . mommy 's here .

<s>[INST] xander : [ sighs ] please , please let me explain . sarah : how can you explain it ? you lied to me about the most important person in my life . you let me think that that sweet baby over there is mine and she is n't ! how could you do something like that ? xander : i did it for you . i did do it for you , sarah . i have to make you understand that . sarah : all right , mickey , we are almost done . and then we can start our adventure . [ phone rings ] lani : can we please talk about what happened with kristen ? eli : what is there to talk about ? surveillance footage says it all . lani : eli , if you will just let me explain . eli : you helped kristen sneak out of the station ! i asked you where she was so i could make an arrest . you lied to me . what else is there to explain ? lani : you just do n't understand . eli : no , i think i understand completely . kristen stabbed victor kiriakis and you helped her evade arrest . lani : she had a good reason , eli . eli : to stab someone ? lani : she is my friend , okay ? and she has been through hell , so yeah , i have to help her . eli : you 're lucky i did n't report this to rafe . hell , you 're lucky you did n't even get arrested . what the hell were you thinking ? gabi : ay ! jake : you 're good to go . gabi : thank you . jake : so it 's safe to assume you 're not gon na sue me ? gabi : yeah . but you do have to mop up the floors . jake : oh . and you need to get out of here . i got to get back to work . gabi : yeah , i know you do n't want to talk to me , but i need answers . and there 's really only one way to find out . jake : well , if you think you 're gon na swipe my toothbrush in an effort to get a dna sample , that would be a hard no . gabi : mmm , no worry . there 's a much simpler way to find out what i want to know . jake : what the hell was that for , huh ? what -- why did you do that ? what is wrong with you ? gabi : because you 're my husband . jake : no , i 'm not ! gabi : yes , like hell you are not , okay ? we exchanged vows . you are the man that i exchanged vows with . till death do we part ! and you 're right here , standing in front of me alive , by the grace of god , or rolf , whatever , but you 're here alive . ciara : hey , my little grease monkey , are -- oh , my god . ben ? oh , my god , ben . ben , hey ! hey , ben , wake up , okay ? wake up ! hello ! male announcer : like sands through the hourglass , so are the days of our lives . `` [ soft orchestration ] ciara : ben , can you hear me ? ben , please wake up , please wake up , please wake up , please wake up , please wake up . oh , god . oh , thank god . thank god . here . ben : ciara ? ciara : yeah , let me help you , come on . come on . ben : oh , god . ciara : okay . ben , what happened ? ben : these two guys showed up . i -- i asked them if i could help them . and they talked some smack and then they attacked me with a crowbar . ciara : okay , well , we need to take you to the hospital . ben : no , no , i 'm okay . i 'm okay . ciara : no , no ? ben , you could have a cracked skull , you could have a concussion or something . ben : it 's okay . i 'm all right . really , really . ciara : okay . well , at least let me call the cops then , huh ? jake : you 're right , i am standing right here , and i am very much alive , but not as stefan dimera back from the dead . all right ? so lady , pack up the crazy , and get the hell out of here . i got to get to work . gabi : yeah . well , maybe i will sue you . jake : did it ever occur to you that maybe your husband jumped in front of that bullet to , i do n't know , get the hell away from you ? gabi : that is a horrible thing to say ! stefan and i , we were a team . we -- we were deeply in love . jake : oh , love at first sight and that ? gabi : it -- it was a little more complicated than that . jake : oh , sounds like a story that i do n't want to hear . so if you do n't mind . gabi : you kissed me back . jake : excuse me ? gabi : uh - huh . yeah , you did . jake : you ambushed me when i was trying to get you the hell out of here . gabi : because you 're jake -- jake : yes ! gabi : and you 've never seen me before . jake : correct ! gabi : and you 're not my dead husband who 's come back to life . jake : hallelujah ! it 's finally starting to sink in . gabi : yeah , here 's the thing , though , that , see , no matter how much noise you make about not being stefan , it was the kiss that gave you away . jake : it -- gabi : mm - hmm . jake : you are gon na make my head explode . gabi : exactly . you see , no matter how angry stefan was at me -- jake : which must have been 24/7 - - gabi : it did n't matter what game he was playing . every time our lips touched , boom . every time . jake : boom ? okay , there was no boom . i did not kiss you back . gabi : you did kiss me back and you liked it . [ phone ringing ] sarah : just xander . rex : well , answer it ! sarah : oh , you want me to answer it ? just because you think that he can convince me to turn myself in and take mickey back ? yeah , i 'm sorry , that 's not gon na happen . xander : oh , come on , sarah , answer . damn , voice mail . sarah , i know you do n't want to talk to me , but i really have to talk to you , so please , will you please call me back ? please ? lani : i know what i did was wrong . but kristen was desperate . eli : yeah , of course she was . she knew victor was awake and was gon na out her for attempted murder . she wanted to get the hell out of here as fast as she can and you helped her . lani : eli , her baby is missing . eli : oh , my god , she fed you a sob story . lani : it 's the truth . eli : it 's also true that kristen is a wild card . okay , with -- with all this new freedom that you 've given her , what if she goes after sarah the same way she went after victor ? lani : she wo n't do that . eli : because she pinky sweared ? lani : eli -- eli : why do n't you -- i do n't understand how you do n't get it . kristen manipulated you and she used you as her accomplice and -- how did you let her trick you like that ? lani : she did n't trick me , eli . her baby is out there . the baby that she has n't held in over a year . and if i did n't help her , she may never get to see her daughter again . and how can you not understand that ? eli : look , i get it . kristen 's going through hell . but we took an oath to uphold the law . lani : some things are more important than the law . eli : well , that 's not for you to decide . lani : if i found out that our son was alive and that some monster purposely kept him away from me , i probably would have done exactly what kristen did . but if you ca n't understand that , eli , if you ca n't understand that a mother would do whatever -- whatever she can for her child , then cuff me . ( denise ) my husband has heart disease , ciara : okay , thank you . thank you so much . well , the cops are on their way . okay , ben , you 're hurt . ben : it 's bruised ribs and a bump on the head . i 've had worse . ciara : so there 's no way that i can convince you to go to the hospital ? ben : no . i mean , there might be one thing that could help . ciara : what ? ben : [ grunts ] but already , i 'm better , i 'm better , that helped . ciara : yeah , yeah , yeah . okay , well , do you recognize who attacked you ? ben : no , i 've never seen them before . ciara : and do you think that they robbed the place or something ? or -- ben : i think it was more of a warning . ciara : a warning ? for what , ben ? i do n't understand . ben : i think they thought i was jake . jake : there was nothing about that kiss that i liked . gabi : stop lying . jake : i 'm not lying . not about that or about who i am . and i 'm gon na say this loud and clear , so listen up , okay ? you 're a complete stranger to me . i have zero feelings for you . gabi : okay , so when i fainted in the square , why did you rush over and try to help me ? jake : because i 'm a reasonably decent human being . gabi : because you 're stefan . jake : no , i 'm not ! gabi : yes , you are ! okay , you probably just do n't remember , or you had your memory wiped , but you are stefan . i know this in my heart . jake : are you taking any prescription medication ? gabi : i know you think i 'm crazy , but if you knew how many people have come back from the dead in this town , really . jake : okay , you know what , i will admit one thing . gabi : what ? jake : i 'm very envious of your husband . gabi : you are ? jake : yeah , because at least where he is , you ca n't harass him the way you 're harassing me . so i 'm gon na say this one last time before i lose my cool . get the hell out ! gabi : i 'm not going anywhere . lani : what are you waiting for , mr . law and order ? arrest me . [ phone ringing ] eli : hey , commander , what can i do for you ? okay . i -- i 'll be right there . thanks . lani : what did he want ? eli : a call came in through the 911 system . there was a possible assault and battery . they want a detective on the scene . what are you doing ? lani : we 're partners . i 'm going with you . eli : no , i ca n't let you do that , now that i know that upholding the law is n't important to you . xander : oh , look at you . on the mend . how are you feeling , uncle ? victor : like i got stabbed in the chest by a knife - wielding maniac . they for me ? xander : oh , yeah , i thought maybe they 'd cheer you up . victor : nothing to be cheery about lately . unless you 've got some good news ? xander : i -- i went to see maggie . victor : and ? xander : she knows . she knows what she did to sarah and her baby . sarah : all packed . i will make sure that someone finds you as soon as mickey and i are very far away . it was really good to see you . okay . i will take it off but as long as you promise you wo n't scream . rex : ow . > gabi : well ? rex : you ca n't just leave like this . sarah : but i am . rex : why are you going ? sarah : germany . or switzerland . or the kingdom of tonga . i do n't really know . but wherever it is , i 'm not going to tell you so that you can e - blast it to the world . rex : can you just think again about what you 're doing ? think about what this is gon na do to this little girl . sarah : i am thinking about mickey . we are gon na go and we 're gon na start over together somewhere . and it 's gon na be great . so you can beg me to do the right thing all you want , but i do n't have a choice . rex : no , you do have a choice , we talked about this -- sarah : nope , and this conversation is over . rex : oh ! sarah : i really am sorry for hitting you over the head and -- and for this and all of it . jeanne marie : bonjour , cherie . jack : all right . there you go . jennifer : thank you . jack : and now , let 's order something to eat . jennifer : no , jack , i 'm really not hungry -- jack : jennifer , you have n't eaten all day . jennifer : i just -- i just want to go back to the hospital -- jack : we ca n't go back to the hospital . we just came from the hospital . all right ? we just came from the hospital . and we are here now . we need a break . we need a break . if anything happens , chad will call us or text . jennifer : you 're right , you 're right . i just keep thinking about abigail when she was a little girl , you know ? she was the smartest one in her class , always got all as . and her teachers would -- would always say that she was so kind and hardworking . jack : hardworking , kind . kind of sounds like her mom . jennifer : i do n't know about that . but all that to say , jack , i brought this up because it just -- it does n't seem fair , and i know that life is not fair , but abigail has struggled so hard and she has overcome this , and she got her health back for her children , and now it 's like everything has started all over -- jack : no , this is not a recurrence of the mental illness . it is not . she was poisoned . she was drugged . jennifer : jack , i know that , but it brings back all these memories , this -- this nightmare when she was going through so much . you do n't know , jack , you do n't know what she went through -- jack : it 's not -- it 's not the same . it 's not the same . all right ? when this drug , when this poison 's out of her system , she 's gon na be herself again . she will . jennifer : that is not what marlena said , jack . jack : that 's -- that -- she -- marlena said -- all right , she warned us that there could be some kind of lingering problems , but -- but i ca n't go there . i can not . and please , please do n't -- do n't go there yourself . we 've got to be optimistic . jennifer : we have to be optimistic , you 're right , jack . but we also have to be optimistic that they are going to prove that gabi is the one who did this to abigail . again . to make someone lose her mind again ? nothing could be more cruel . jack : if -- when -- when it is proven that gabi did indeed poison our little girl , i hope to hell that the sadistic -- i just hope she finally gets what she deserves . jake : how many times do i have to say this ? your time 's up , so get the hell out . gabi : i will . as soon as you admit that you 're my husband . jake : not gon na happen because it 's not true . gabi : could you get me a glass of water ? it could be a while . jake : i could get you a glass of get the hell out of here because this is trespassing , and last time i checked , that 's illegal . gabi : well , if you wanted me out of here so badly , why do n't you just call the police ? mmm , interesting . yeah , you do n't want to do that . hmm . is that because you 're living under an assumed name , stefan ? jake : all right . that 's it . i 've tried to be nice but this is over . eli : hey . ciara : hey . oh , wow , i 'm so glad that you 're here . eli : what happened ? ciara : oh , ben was assaulted . eli : is there any surveillance footage ? ben : no , no , no . eli : can you describe them ? ben : a few guys , big . in their , like , 20s maybe . one guy , caucasian , shaved head . the other guy , dark skin , dark hair , he was in all black . attacked me with a crowbar , was wearing boots , both of them . eli : did they rob the place ? ben : no . eli : do you know why they assaulted you ? ben : they thought i was my boss . eli : your boss ? when did you start working here ? ben : today . eli : hell of a first day on the job . where 's this boss ? ben : he 's upstairs with gabi . eli : gabi ? what does she have to do with this ? gabi : [ speaking spanish ] get your hands off me ! jake : not until you get it through that thick skull of yours that my name is not -- eli : stefan dimera ? lani : kristen , it 's me . look , have you heard from theo yet ? please call me when you get this , okay ? hey , brady , what are you doing here ? brady : d.a . giddens overruled your boyfriend . charges have been dropped , which means i 'm free to go and free to try to find kristen and track down our daughter . which is not gon na be easy , lani , because kristen has disappeared . lani : wait , brady . there 's something you need to know . victor : you told maggie the truth ? what the hell were you thinking ? xander : just do n't upset yourself , uncle , okay ? victor : you 're the one that 's upsetting me , damn it . after all the trouble we went through ? could n't just keep your mouth shut ? xander : i did n't have a choice . another inmate was going on about how you 'd been stabbed . maggie was frantic . she was asking all sorts of questions and she warned me if i did n't give her the answers , she 'd get them somewhere else . but would n't you prefer she heard it for me than from some random person in her cell block ? victor : i 'd rather she did n't have to hear it at all . xander : i know . victor : how 'd she take it ? xander : how do you think ? learning that she killed her own granddaughter , she -- she fell apart . all i could do was hold her . broke my heart . victor : i got to go to maggie and make sure she 's okay . xander : you 're in no condition to go anywhere , uncle . just stop . sarah : jeanne marie , what are you doing here ? we were just heading out . [ muffled screaming ] jeanne marie : sorry i caught you at a bad time . just wanted to see how you and la petite fille are doing . sarah : oh , yeah , we are -- we 're doing great . yeah , we 're fine . like i said , we are in a bit of a hurry , so i wo n't -- rex : ah , come on ! jeanne marie : what 's that ? is someone else here ? who is that ? your migraine strikes , and the struggle is real . eli : stefan ? is that really you ? gabi : even a cop thinks that you 're stefan . jake : you 're a cop ? eli : detective eli grant , salem pd . jake : name 's jake . and apparently i look like this lady 's dead husband . is that a crime ? eli : no , but assault is . jake : assault ? no , no , no , no , no . she would not leave my apartment . i had no choice but to drag her out . eli : no , i 'm not talking about her . i 'm talking about him . jake : dude . what the hell happened ? you okay ? ben : i 'm fine . ciara : no , he 's not . eli : well , while you were upstairs , two men attacked him . jake : attacked you , why ? they take anything ? ben : no , man , they did n't want money . they thought i was you . eli : maybe you can tell me why two men would want to beat you up . victor : maggie needs me . xander : you need to get well ! do n't worry about maggie . i 've -- i 've taken care of her . victor : you certainly have . xander : what i mean is , i contacted will , told him what happened . he 's on his way to statesville now to be with her . i also called sarah . victor : and ? xander : straight to voicemail . victor : so you have no idea where she and the baby are ? xander : not yet . i 'm gon na find her before anyone else does and straighten out this mess . lani : what if i could help you find kristen ? brady : what are you talking about ? eli said she ran . lani : i know where she is . brady : you -- you helped her , did n't you ? lani : yeah , and i probably should n't have . but kristen has the chance to see her baby again , the one that she thought was dead . brady , she has a chance to love her and raise her and hold her . and i knew that if she got arrested that that might not happen . brady : does e -- eli know ? lani : yeah , and he is not happy with me . brady : you really put a lot on the line , lani . lani : i did . because i would give anything , brady , i would do anything if i got the second chance to have my baby boy back in my arms . and kristen deserves that . brady : thank you . lani , where is she ? lani : i took her to a safe place where we could figure out where the baby is . brady : do you have any idea where rachel and sarah might be ? lani : no , not exactly , but we did -- we did come up with a lead . jeanne marie : that 's your husband , is n't it ? sarah : yep , that 's -- that 's chad . jeanne marie : lovebirds back in the nest . i 'm so happy to hear it . sarah : mm - hmm , yeah , we 've never been happier . but like i said , we -- we 've got to go , so . jeanne marie : hallo ? monsieur chad ? jeanne marie . [ speaks french ] rex : [ muffled speaking ] jeanne marie : i do n't know -- i do n't understand american accents i 'm not very good with them . [ speaking french ] depression . jennifer : no , julie , we have no more news . i 'm just at the pub with jack and we 're gon na -- we 're just gon na get some food . oh , wait , can i call you back ? i have another call coming in . all right , love you , bye - bye . it 's chad . hey , what 's up ? what ? no ! jack : what ? jennifer : abigail 's missing . she 's not in her room . jack : oh , no , oh , my god . jennifer : we are on our way right now . do n't leave ! jack : all right , all right , right , all right , let 's go ! jake : i have no idea who would want to beat me up . eli : you 're not in some kind of trouble ? maybe pissed some people off ? jake : none of the above . gabi : well , i mean , you do have a knack for ticking people off . jake : you know , maybe whoever these thugs were thought that i was this stefan guy she wo n't shut up about . it 's not like he did n't run with some shifty people . gabi : how dare you ? jake : just stating the facts . gabi : well , you 're wrong . jake : am i ? gabi : mm - hmm . jake : since everyone wants to hang this guy 's name around my neck , i did a little bit of research , and apparently , stefan dimera is an entitled master of the universe kind of guy who does n't let a little thing like ethics get in between him and what he wants . so it is understandable that maybe if somebody thought he was alive that they 'd come after him , although the widow dimera thinks that he was quite the catch , right ? eli : is that possible ? you think the two men that attacked you could 've thought that you were stefan instead of jake ? lani : once kristen 's phone was charged , we saw that rex left her a message . brady : rex brady calls kristen out of the blue ? i mean , why ? what did the message say ? lani : not much . just that he wanted her to call him back and that it was important . brady : did he say why ? lani : no . and that 's the weird thing . then the message cut midsentence . brady : you have no idea where this call came from ? lani : no . but i did call the hospital and they said he was at a medical conference in paris . he was supposed to show up for work the next day and he didn't . brady : rex brady is in paris and he calls kristen about something important , so -- lani : right . but , i mean , he has to be with sarah , right ? brady : right , right . lani : which is why we called theo and asked him if he could trace the number of the exact location . i tried calling kristen before you got here but she did n't answer . brady : did she -- did she -- did she call you back ? lani : no , not yet . brady : lani , can you take me to her , please ? lani : yes , of course . [ phone ringing ] brady : is that -- is that kristen ? lani : no , it 's theo . victor : have they arrested kristen yet ? xander : she got away from the police . could be anywhere . victor : you 're worried she 's gon na go after sarah . xander : oh , i 'm sure of it . i 'm afraid of what she 'll do when she finds her . i mean , if she 'd stick a knife in your chest for switching a baby , imagine what she 'll do to sarah for kidnapping her . victor : yes , then we have to make sure that the police get to kristen first . once she 's put in jail for stabbing me , we wo n't have to worry about her going after sarah or brady . or anyone else . jeanne marie : hallo ? monsieur chad ? are you all right ? rex : [ muffled speaking ] i think he has pain . bad pain . [ speaking french ] sarah : oh , jet leg . and he 's got a bad cold -- the flu . he 's got a terrible , terrible sore throat . poor man ca n't even talk . so , yeah . jeanne marie : my god . that 's terrible . sarah : yeah , mickey and i were actually on our way to go get him some cough syrup , like i said , so we 're in a hurry . jeanne marie : yes , but of course . but first , i must say , your wife is a wonderful woman , so you must fix the problems . [ speaking french ] i 'm sorry , maybe if i come a little closer . sarah : i 'm afraid i -- i just ca n't let you do that . eli : i got to get back to the station . ciara : wait , eli , that 's it ? eli : there 's not -- there 's not a lot to go on . i mean , there 's no security footage , there 's no other witnesses . i mean , i 'll file a report with ben 's description , but , sorry , there 's not a lot for me to do at this point . ben : sorry i could n't be more help . it just happened so fast . eli : well , if you remember anything else , just let me know . ben : i will , thank you . eli : and if they return -- jake : which hopefully they do n't , but you will the first to know . hey , detective . ms. dimera here has been harassing me nonstop . she 's been borderline stalking me . gabi : i have not , okay ? jake : and i was about to call the cops , but since you 're here , maybe you could escort her off the premises ? gabi : i 'm not going anywhere . jake : which is why i 'll call the police . i 'd hate to see you drive back to the station and come back all the way over here . gabi : we are not done . eli : no , i think you are . you see , because if he decides to call the cops again , which i would n't blame him if he did , the next officer that comes out here might not be so understanding . gabi : fine , okay , yeah . i 'm gon na go . you do n't have to walk me out . i can find my own way . but i 'm gon na be back . and i am gon na figure out the truth . xander : well , this has certainly blown up in our faces , has n't it ? victor : well , we do damage control . use whatever titan resources you need . find sarah and the baby and make things right . xander : thank you , uncle . i 'm not sure i deserve your generosity . i 've let you down . i would n't blame you if you hated me . victor : no , hate you ? i gave you my father 's drachma on your wedding day . because you 've proven to be a true kiriakis . xander : `` as long as you carry this , your family will carry you . `` victor : you 've done your best to carry the kiriakis family . and for that , i 'm very proud of you . xander : but i 've made such a mess of things . victor : learn how to put your family first . make all the hard choices . you 've come to know that they 're not always easy . sadly , this time , maggie in pieces , sarah and the baby , god knows where . all the work that we did to protect them was all for nothing . xander : not if i can help it . lani : thank you so much , theo . hey , and remember , this stays between us , okay ? i love you , too . brady : so , what do we got , what do we got ? lani : theo did it . brady : he did ? lani : he tracked down the exact location where rex made the call . brady : oh . it 's paris ! lani : yep . brady : does kristen know ? lani : he said that he called her this morning with the news and he was surprised that she had n't called me yet . brady : i 'm not , i 'm not . she 's probably on her way there . lani : yeah , you ca n't blame her , wanting to see her daughter . brady : i 'm more worried about sarah , to be honest with you . lani : wait , no , you do n't -- you do n't think kristen would hurt her ? brady : should we ask victor that question ? i got to go . i got to -- i 'm the only one that can probably talk her out of doing something she 's gon na regret , so ... god , lani , thank you . thank you . lani : you 're welcome . jeanne marie : what is the problem ? why can i not see your husband ? sarah : i 'm sorry . i just -- he could be very contagious , and i -- i would hate it if you caught whatever he has . jeanne marie : you said the flu possibly . sarah : mm - hmm , yeah , i 'm afraid so . jeanne marie : i understand . i will leave you . monsieur , i hope you feel better , and you have learned something from this . it 's time for you to be good to your wife and your baby . sarah : bye , jeanne marie . jake : here . hopefully that 'll help . ben : thanks . jake : i 'm really sorry this happened . ben : i 'm fine . ciara : no , you 're not . ben : it 's okay . ciara : no , it 's not , ben . you got a beating meant for him . jake : like i said , i do n't know anything about this . ben : are you sure about that ? these guys thought i was you , not stefan . jake : that 's very strange . ben : i do n't think it 's that obscure . you know , i did n't tell eli everything . ciara : wait . ben , why not ? why did n't you tell him everything ? ben : because these thugs were looking for something . and clearly they wanted it bad enough to beat the crap out of me . so what was it , jake ? what did they want ? lani : everything okay ? eli : it 's fine . lani : that 's all you 're gon na give me ?

[ scene_break ] lucinda : i see . it is n't prudent for you and dusty to stay at the lakeview while jennifer is in residence , it makes it all too uncomfortable for all of you ? meg : yeah , although i do n't know what 's worse -- bumping into jennifer in the lobby , or the constant glare of disapproval that i know , i know , mama will give once we move out to the farm . lucinda : ah , you think so small . are n't there other options ? for example , you could stay in my guest house . meg : are you serious ? lucinda : sierra 's moved into the main house with me , since the chemo . i mean , it 's sitting there , it 's all on its lonesome , going to waste . meg : and you would let me live there with dusty ? lucinda : until you do something that makes me want to throw you out . [ meg chuckles ] meg : okay , how much will this cost us ? lucinda : nothing . nothing . i owe it to you . take it as a gesture of gratitude . and hurry up before i change my mind . meg : look , you hired me as your nurse . you paid me very well for that . lucinda : yes , but you were more than a nurse , you were a friend , you were a confidante . meg : more times than not , you did n't agree with my advice . lucinda : i rarely agree with other people 's advice . now , come on . hurry up . accept it before i change my mind ! meg : well , i do n't know what to say . i -- lucinda : a simple yes would suffice . meg : okay . i 'd love to . of course , i 'll have to ask dusty to see if its okay , but i do n't see a problem . lucinda : run along , run along ! we 've got to get you out of that hotel , the sooner , the better . meg : thank you . [ scene_break ] dusty : i 'll make sure meg gets everything . emma : thank you . so , dusty -- just how permanent is this new living arrangement ? dusty : oh , i do n't know what answer to give you that would be the right one to that . emma : it seems so very sudden . dusty : well , surprises happen that way . emma : who surprised whom ? dusty : we surprised each other . emma : i was serious when i said that i 'm worried about my meg . and i doubt i have to explain to you exactly what i meant . dusty : it means you love her . emma : that 's right . question is , do you ? it seems to me that just a few seconds ago you were pretty much committed to jennifer munson . dusty : that did n't happen . emma : oh . so meg is here to ease your pain , is that it ? dusty : no . no . emma : well , just excuse me if i 'm a bit skeptical . but i do n't trust this sudden burst of enthusiasm , and i certainly think it 's premature for the two of you to start living together . dusty : well , that 's because you 're a traditional kind of gal . emma : just cool it , sweetheart . there 's one thing that you have to remember . and that is that my daughter is not as tough as she appears . she is just as fragile and susceptible as any of us . dusty : i know that . emma : and there 's another thing you have to remember . and that is that i am not going to stand by and see you break her heart for a second time . dusty : you wo n't have to worry . it wo n't happen . emma : well , it 's going to take a lot more than your say - so to make me believe that . [ scene_break ] emily : i know that daniel 's having a hard time understanding that hal and i are n't together anymore , but i have talked to him about it . tom : well , i do n't think you 've made things very clear . because today when i dropped him off at school , he wanted to know who you were going to be married to now . paul : hey , tom . tom : hey . paul : everything okay ? emily : yeah , actually we were just having a -- tom : just kind of having a private conversation . emily : no , actually , paul 's very much a part of this conversation . when daniel comes here , they spend a lot of time together , so -- do you feel like he does n't understand what 's going on -- daniel ? paul : with the divorce ? i could n't say . we have n't talked about it . emily : well , when he 's with you , how does he seem to you ? does he seem happy , adjusted ? paul : yeah . great kid . but tom 's his father , so i have to respect that . i 'll get out of your way . emily : all right . we both know that divorce is hard on any child . we know that . but he 's given me no indication that -- tom : well , he 's acting out at school . fighting with other kids , calling other students names . emily : who told you that ? tom : one of his teachers called me at home . they did n't contact you ? emily : yeah , they -- the school called and left a message yesterday . i called them back , but they had left for the day . we 're playing phone tag , i guess . tom : well , you must have been pretty busy . emily : that 's not fair . tom : you know , what 's unfair is you leaving hal and taking up with paul ryan , which is creating chaos in our son 's life , and you seem to be oblivious to that . so you need to start proving to me that you 're more in tune with what 's going on with daniel , or i 'm going to have to seriously reconsider our custody arrangement . [ scene_break ] keith : hiya , lily . lily : are you following me ? or are you paying someone to follow me ? keith : i 'm not following you , it 's just that you looked so tired when you left the hospital , i did n't want you to fall asleep at the wheel . lily : i am tired . i 'm exhausted . as a matter of fact , i 'd really like to go upstairs and just crawl in my bed and go to sleep , so -- keith : just give me five minutes . please ? lily : i do n't know what else there is to say . i told you , i needed some time to work it out . keith : we 're getting married . you agreed to that . there 's nothing to work out . lily : what are you talking about ? of course there is . what about luke ? how do i explain it all to him ? keith : well , if anybody needs an explanation , it might be holden . lily : how can i explain to holden what i do n't understand myself ? you forced me to agree to something , and i had no time to think . even if you and i were still together , even if none of this had happened , i am not ready for marriage ! keith : yes , you are . we belong together . come on , you know that . lily : no , i do n't ! i only said yes to you to save my son 's life , and now i 'm terrified that if i -- keith : what ? what ? lily : you 're right . i do n't go back on my word . if i break my promise to you , then i am terrified . what if i 'm punished ? what if luke is taken away from me anyway ? [ scene_break ] iris : did you know that will and gwen are moving in together ? [ barbara laughs ] barbara : that 's ridiculous . will would never do anything so foolish . iris : yeah , well , they 're both being fools . blind by love , i guess . barbara : okay , let 's get something straight , all right ? my will is not in love with your daughter . she 's merely using him for his good nature . iris : my gwen is not the problem here . it was your will 's idea for my daughter to move out on her own . in fact , he even gave her the money for the down payment . [ barbara sighs ] barbara : oh , my , that explains it . iris : explains what ? barbara : he just cashed in some bonds that his aunt and uncle gave him for college . iris : oh , yeah . well now they 're going to the midwood terrace apartments . barbara : i thought that the court ordered gwen to live with you . iris : yeah . for 90 days , and thanks to your son , she 's talking about moving out when her time is up . barbara : oh , i 'm sure it did n't take my son to convince her of that . iris : let me tell you something . gwen and i are getting along just fine , but i 'm competing with teen hormones here . every time i walk in the house , their hands are going everywhere -- barbara : okay , okay , okay . spare me , all right ? iris : well , you know , kids are going to be kids , all right ? but the problem is , they think they can raise that kid on their own , plus finish high school , plus pay the bills . barbara : it 's madness . iris : well , that 's what i keep telling gwennie . the best thing is for her to live with me so i can take care of that baby and she can finish school , right ? barbara -- can i call you barbara ? look , we 're both on the same team , right ? i mean , come on , let 's be honest , do you really want your son playing daddy at 17 ? i mean , it 's not even his kid . barbara : so what do you suggest ? iris : well , we 're two very smart women . i 'm sure we can come up with a way to split them up . barbara : yes , i 'm sure we can . iris : oh , look , you 've got a little coffee on your jacket . barbara : i do ? iris : you 've got to put some cold water , or it 's going to stain . barbara : oh , okay . iris : do it now , hurry up ! barbara : all right , all right . do n't move . we 've got a lot to talk about . iris : i 'm not going anywhere . will : i know what you 're up to , iris , but you 're not going to get away with it .

[ meg laughs ] dusty : who 's cooking , though ? you or me ? it all depends , you see . meg : okay , the only reason you had to rescue me from that dinner last time was because i was trying too hard . when i 'm not trying to pull out all the stops to impress you , i can cook just fine . dusty : really ? meg : all i need is a kitchen . dusty : okay , let 's see if they have another suite that has one , shall we ? meg : actually , i have a better idea .

[ scene_break ] dusty : just like that , out of the blue ? here , take the keys to my guest house ? meg : is that so strange ? dusty : well , in my experience with lucinda , yeah . she 's not usually giving without receiving . meg : i tried to stop her from going down to that clinic in mexico . and when she would n't listen , i had no choice but to quit , so i think she just feels badly about that . dusty : well , she should . you were trying to help her out . meg : plus , i think dealing with her own mortality has kind of softened her up a little bit . anyway , what -- what 's the difference why she 's offering ? it 's a great space . it has a kitchen . dusty : i 'm just curious how this even came up between you two . meg : i told her we were sort of starting to live together . and -- and she thought we needed a bigger space , so she offered . so ? come on , what do you think ? can i call her and tell her we accept ? [ scene_break ] emily : are you threatening to take my son away from me ? tom : you know i do n't want to do that . i 'm just worried . you seem more concerned about trying to get your life the way you want it than to how daniel is going to react to your choices . emily : well , that is not true . tom : then how do you explain his behavior ? emily : i do n't know ! i 'm not saying that this h been easy for him . but i resent your saying that i 'm oblivious to it . tom : all i want is what 's best for daniel . emily : right , me too . and what 's best for our son is shared custody with both parents . he 's got a solid home with you and margo and he has a solid home here . he loves paul . tom : the way he loved hal ? emily : he can see hal whenever he wants ! tom : look , that 's not my point . emily : no , your point is you do n't think i 'm a good enough mother . tom : no , i did n't say that . emily : you 're threatening to keep my son away from me . so yes , you are ! tom : you need to stop putting words in my mouth . i just came by here to say that you need to start paying a little more attention because danny is not handling this as well as you obviously think he is . and you need to do something about that . or i will . paul : i take it that did n't go very well .

[ scene_break ] kendall : is this a trick ? are you just saying that so i 'll shut up ? zach : ha ! no , it 's not a trick . we should do things together . you 're right . i want my boys growing up knowing that their parents do everything together . kendall : we 're a team . we 're a team . zach : i 'm sorry . kendall : it 's all right . zach : the boys are upstairs playing cowboys with the nanny . kendall : mm - hmm ? zach : being a team , i thought maybe we could do the same . kendall : you want to play cowboy ? ok . i like that idea . i 'm gon na get my boots . i 'm gon na get your cool hat , too . zach : sounds good . kendall : ok . you there . zach : mm - hmm .

[ scene_break ] jack : now comes the night of the party , mr. lavery . what were you thinking ? ryan : that i had to get greenlee away from david . that he was worse for her than i 'd even predicted . jack : how so ? ryan : he told me that he was gon na take her away and that they were never coming back . jack : and what happened then ? ryan : i could n't let that happen . jack : because you never stopped loving her . ryan : never . jack : even though she was married ? even though she told you that she did n't love you , that she did n't want your help . ryan : she needed me , and i would do absolutely anything for her . jack : because you realized that if she got on the plane , you might never see her again . ryan : yes . jack : so you had to do something . you had to stop him . liza : objection , your honor ! judge : sustained . jack : you fought with dr. hayward that night , did n't you ? ryan : yes . jack : what happened after the fight ? ryan : i do n't remember . jack : you do n't remember ? ryan : no . i had a trauma , and a large part of the night is just a blank . jack : so it 's conceivable that during this blank time -- liza : objection , your honor ! ryan lavery is not on trial . jack : withdrawn . no further questions . judge : it 's getting late , and i 'm hungry . so , ms. colby , you can begin your cross - examination after lunch . bailiff : all rise ! liza : where have you been ? damon : weird thing . i saw nick pearson at confusion , jackson 's big surprise witness . liza : yeah ? so ? damon : he was talking smack about what a big celebrity he is now , hitting on the bartender . but is n't this the same guy who wanted to `` lay low `` and not testify , because it would wreck his marriage ? liza : yeah , that 's what he said , did n't he ? damon : yeah . guess not anymore . and he seemed real happy about the fact that ryan was gon na get nailed . strange , right ?

kendall and zach argue because he is still angry that kendall keeps getting involved in ryan and greenlee 's problems . kendall is angry with zach because he wo n't let her help him with the casino problem and so in the end they decide to handle all their problems together . bianca feels responsible for zach 's business problems because she asked him to raise international funds to help the miranda center since they lost money when david accused erica of stealing money from the center . zach tells bianca not to worry because she is family and he was glad to help her .
<s>[INST] greenlee : maybe i can get the judge to declare a mistrial . kendall : you do n't know how this will all play out . greenlee : it 's gon na play out with ryan being indicted for david 's murder . kendall : green -- greenlee : for weeks i 've been trying to keep him out of prison . and then what does he do ? he goes and he puts a target on his back , with the help of my father . it 's like he wants to be guilty . kendall : we both know he could be . now with this new witness , there 's an even better chance . greenlee : i 'd do anything to protect him . i 'm not going to let him go to jail . kendall : it might be out of your hands right now . greenlee : i know one part of ryan 's strategy is not gon na work . he wants to convince the jury he 's madly in love with me , and i 've been resisting him . kendall : right . like , makes him look like he has the motive . greenlee : but it 's getting harder and harder to resist him . when it comes to ryan , i ca n't be neutral . i 'm so emotional . it 's like everyone in that courtroom can see right through me , like they know . kendall : that you still love him ? [ scene_break ] damon : so i 'm just saying if you stared a little less at your papers and a little more at the back of your eyelids , you might not lose things . liza : i am not losing anything . damon : hey , hey , hey ! hang on . say , do you want me to take you back to the hospital ? liza : i was never in the hospital . remember that . [ scene_break ] jack : hey . erica : well , you did n't sleep at all last night , did you ? jack : not too much . i have kind of a big day today . erica : i know you do . you put ryan on the stand and make it look like he 's the one who killed david , and then greenlee gets off . jack : that 's the plan , yes . erica : she 's still not talking to you ? jack : i guess i should 've expected that . i mean , we did do this behind her back , blindsided her with this witness . erica : only to keep her out of prison . jack , you 're working yourself to death . ryan is risking everything . is she the least bit grateful ?

[ sighs ] i mean , adam did n't have a chance . i saw the car coming , and adam could n't move , and all i could -- all i could think about was the night that nikki and neil hit me , the night we lost our baby . [ sighs ] [ sobs ] paul : it 's okay . what can i do ? can i take you home ? christine : no . no , look , we 've got to deal with this . i mean , you got -- you just got to get my statement . paul : you sure ? christine : yes . yes . paul : all right . come here . just tell me what happened . christine : okay . the judge had just pronounced sentence . adam was being escorted to the prison van , and i 'm telling you , a car came out of nowhere straight for adam . paul : so he -- he was a target ? christine : there 's no doubt . paul : what can you tell me about the car ? make , model , license plate , color ? christine : it was white . paul : uh - huh . [ telephone rings ] paul : oh . christine : no , no . just -- it could be about adam . you got to get it . paul : williams . yeah , victor . how 's adam ? victor : i do n't know . we 're not allowed to see him . i 'm just very concerned that he gets the best possible care . paul : i 'm sure the doctors are doing everything they can . victor : paul , i buried my son once . i 'm not about to do it again . billy : do n't tell me . victor 's already branded me suspect number one . jack : he had to blame someone . billy : and here you are . do you think i did it ? come to see for yourself ? victoria : okay , listen , billy 's been with me the whole time . we left the courthouse , we went to the park to see delia 's tree . i 'm sure there were people that saw us . billy : yeah , but do n't forget to check the surveillance cameras , jack , you know , just in case . jack : i 'm not here to accuse you of anything . i 'm just trying to give you a heads up in case -- billy : in case what ? there 's a pair of handcuffs with my name on them ? victoria : jack , anyone who was in court would know that billy did n't do this . he forgave adam . he took responsibility for his share in delia 's death . it 's not exactly the actions of a man who would run down adam with a car . jack : that may be true , but someone hated adam enough to want him dead , and they may have succeeded . billy : you know , if i had heard this news two years ago , hell , two days ago , i would have thought that adam had it coming . but ... now ... jack : you touched a lot of people with what you said today in the courtroom . me included . listen , i 'm gon na get to the hospital , all right ? billy : um , how 's chelsea doing ? jack : she 's about to lose the man she loves again . and this time , there wo n't be a miraculous return . victoria : let 's go . nikki : hi . sage : hi . how 's adam ? nikki : sweetheart . we 're still waiting to hear . sage : is there anything we can do ? nikki : you could tell me good news . tell me about my grandbaby . nick : christian 's gaining weight . he 's improving every day . sage : and i 'm sensing he 's gon na have his father 's sense of humor . nikki : oh , lord , help us . nick : she does n't mean that . nikki : oh , yeah , i do . [ chuckles ] nick : is that necessary ? victor : well , i asked paul the same question . [ cell phone chimes ] michael : this is paul . he wants me down at the station . let 's see what he can do . excuse me . victor : sit down , son . nick : do n't lose hope , all right ? adam 's ... he 's too rotten to die . sage : hey . are you okay ? i ca n't imagine what it must have been like to be there . chelsea : the car -- it was so fast . i ... it just kept coming . i could n't stop it , and i ... [ voice breaking ] i did n't even have time to warn him . i just -- i just watched , and now -- now he 's in there . sage : when i first met adam , i learned very quickly that he loved you and connor more than anything in the world , chelsea . chelsea : stop talking about him like he 's dead . he 's gon na make it . [ sighs ] he has to . nikki : victor , the kids have an update on our new grandbaby . victor : oh , my goodness . how is christian ? sage : the doctors are pleased with his progress . victor : yeah ? nick : yeah , little man 's getting better every day . he 's gon na need that first pony soon . sage : [ chuckles ] until then , he 's packing on ounces , and his heart is strong . victor : yeah ? well , i 'm not surprised , you know . he 's a newman . strong . we fight . victoria : i 'm so sorry . victor : hi , sweetheart . victoria : hi . any word ? nikki : no , not yet . hi , darling . victor : excuse me . what is he doing here ? victoria : jack gave us the news . we wanted to be here . victor : officer , you might as well arrest him . paul : i 'm gon na need a statement from you , too . christine : i should go and debrief my staff . michael : do n't leave on my account . christine : well , hopefully you 'll be more help than i was . paul : no , chris , you were very helpful . michael : yeah , it was a bit of a shocker . christine : yeah . let 's just focus on catching who did this . paul : chris remembered the color of the car . michael : white . paul : good . we 're batting a thousand on that one . do you remember anything else ? michael : not much . i mean , before any of us could react , the car had slammed into adam and kept going . um , i think it was a sedan , but i would be guessing if i had to give you the make or model . paul : so i suppose a license plate 's out of the question . michael : nothing . i 'm not even sure there was one . paul : what about the driver ? i know you did n't see the face , but , uh , male , female ? anybody else in the car ? passengers , you know ? anything you can remember ? michael : no . i wish i could give you more of a break , but , um , there 's only one thing i know with any certainty . it 's not what i saw or did n't see or what i heard . it 's what i did n't hear . there was no screech of brakes or attempt to stop . whoever hit adam , they meant to kill him . ashley : look , honey , it was n't that long ago the two of you were broken up . you were really into your career and you thought ben was too over - protective . so excuse me if i think this proposal came out of nowhere . abby : not being together made us realize how much we want to be together . being apart brought us closer . ashley : and you 're sure about that ? abby : i love him , mom . ashley : you 've loved a few other people , too . abby : all right . i get it . my track record has n't been the best when it comes to commitment , and am i ready for such a big step ? [ sighs ] fair question . ashley : hey , look , if you have to ask the question , then you 're absolutely not ready . abby : it was totally rhetorical . you 're supposed to say , `` of course you are ready . you and stitch are a match made in heaven . you 're meant to be together . `` ashley : just hold on a second . a committed relationship takes time and energy , and is n't that one of the problems the two of you have always had ? not enough time to really get to know each other ? abby : i had never thought about marriage until i thought ben was gon na propose , and it made me realize how much i want to be ben 's wife . [ cell phone rings ] ashley : seems kind of like a big step to me . hey , jack . what 's up ? you 're kidding me . abby 's here . yeah , i 'll tell her . just keep me posted . abby : what was that ? ashley : oh , my god . adam -- he stepped out of the courthouse , and he was hit by a car . abby : what ? ashley : yeah , he 's at memorial , and all the newmans are there . you should go . abby : okay , yeah . i 'll let you know if i hear anything . ashley : okay , honey . billy : look , i get that i 'm at the top of your list for this , but you 're looking at the wrong person . victor : you put my son in that room , did n't you , huh ? did n't you ? you here now to see what damage you 've done , to gloat ? billy : i came here to support chelsea . victor : you wanted this ! nikki : victor , come on . leave him alone . jack : you heard billy on the witness stand . victor : that was a phony speech . victoria : he 's telling the truth , dad . victor : you gave that phony speech , put the courtroom in tears , then you hightailed out of there , got in your car , and took revenge on my son ! chelsea : everything you said at the trial , is victor right ? were they lies ? billy : chelsea , i meant every word of it . there has been enough pain and anger and guilt , okay ? and i have it on -- i have it on good authority that delia would n't have wanted that . and you and connor helped me see it , too . i just wanted justice for delia 's death . i did n't want revenge . i did n't want this . victor : paul , i 'm glad you 're here . would you kindly ask that officer to step aside so chelsea can see her husband ? paul : believe it or not , victor , there is a protocol to all of this . i 'm here to get statements about what happened to adam . victor : well , then kindly start with billy boy , all right ? you might as well arrest him while you 're at it . paul : six of one . billy , what can you tell me ? billy : that i left . i was n't even there when the judge pronounced sentencing . paul : okay , so where were you ? jack : hold on . leave my brother out of this . paul : [ sighs ] paul : adam was driving the car that hit billy 's daughter . is it a coincidence that the same thing happened to adam ? jack : but you were in the courtroom . billy did what no abbott , no newman has been able to do for decades . he put the past where it belongs -- in the past . i could n't be any prouder of my brother . and there 's no way in hell he was driving the car . victor : paul , this is ridiculous . it 's an abbott defending an abbott . arrest the sob . victoria : okay , hold on a second . billy could n't have done it . he was in the park with me . paul : oh . you know , victoria , it was n't that long ago when you looked me in the eye just as you 're doing now and lied to cover for your father . so it 's not out of the realm of possibilities that you might fabricate another alibi , now , is it ? victoria : whatever i think of adam , he 's my brother . he has a wife and a child . i want whoever did this to be found and held accountable . paul : i 'd like to check out your car , billy . jack : oh , come on , paul , this is ridiculous . billy : no , you know what ? it 's fine . i got nothing to hide . phyllis : is this your idea of cracker jack police work , paul ? why are you harassing billy when the real hit - and - run driver is still out there ? paul : you know , phyllis , i understand that everyone 's nerves are stretched to the limit . but it 's my responsibility to check out every possibility in this case . and this is the first logical place to start . jack : you know what ? you 're right . police have their job . the doctors have theirs . we 're -- we 're in the way . um , if you need us , we will be at the club . paul : i will need those statements . jack : you will get them . chelsea : billy . thank you for coming and for what you said in court . billy : i never thought these words would be coming out of my mouth , but ... i hope adam pulls through . for your sake and for connor 's . nikki : well , there 's no telling how long this is going to take . why do n't you go back and see your beautiful baby boy , give him a kiss for me ? nick : yeah , we can tell him how awesome his grandma is . nikki : there you go . paul : hey , nik , can i talk to you for a moment about what you say outside the courthouse ? nikki : oh , yeah , sure . paul : excuse me . nikki : i 'll see you later . sage : poor chelsea . i tried to comfort her , but all i did was make it worse . nick : you were just trying to help . it 's not gon na be easy for her to get through this . abby : hi . my mom told me about adam . how is he ? chelsea : i wish i knew . ben 's in there , and no one will let me go in and see him , and nobody will tell me what 's going on . and this officer here is guarding the door like adam 's some criminal . can you tell me why this is taking so long ? can you -- can you find somebody to tell me ? abby : adam is in good hands . ben is the best . nikki : one minute , adam was being led to the van , and the next minute ... chaos . paul : well , i understand how that happens . anyway , thanks for your time , nikki . nikki : wait . wait . i have to tell you . when adam was hit , i saw the look on christine 's face . it was that horrible night all over again . i was behind the wheel , and she had nowhere to go . i will never forgive myself . paul : i think we all learned something about forgiveness today . nikki : is christine all right ? paul : oh , she 's amazing . she is , um , she 's like a marvel of strength and resiliency . she really is . i was gon na take her home to get some rest after the trial , and she would have none of it . she wanted to help me find whoever did this . nikki : i envy her strength . i hope the police find the driver soon , 'cause if they leave it up to victor ... wait a minute . where is victor ? oh , my god . if he 's decided to take things into his own hands ... victor : you have been here all day . you must be hungry . why do n't you go have some dinner ? i probably should n't leave him . victor : well , now , his mother 's gon na be at the hospital for quite some time , you know . i 'm so sorry about mr. bingham . i mean mr. newman . victor : yeah , well , you can call chelsea anytime you want to , all right , but she 's gon na be at the hospital for a while . so , i suggest that you have something to eat , all right ? i 'll play with him , okay ? look what we have here . look at this soccer ball . oh , my god . see ? one day you know what we 'll do ? i 'm gon na teach you how to kick that ball from 20 yards out , and it 's gon na go all the way in the upper corner of a goal . yeah . you know that i taught your father how to play ? i wish i taught him more . but , you know , a funny thing happens . time just goes by , and before you know it , it 's too late . but , you know , your daddy loves you very much . you know , some fathers never get a chance to tell their sons that . but he said it today . he said that you 're his life . you 're the most important thing in his life . [ chuckles ] yep . ashley : hey . how 's adam ? jack : it 's remarkable . given the speed of the car and the impact , he should have been dead on arrival , but it 's adam newman . he has cheated death before . phyllis : well , if he 's got eight lives to go , i hope he makes better use of them . ashley : has anybody thought karma here ? i mean , this is just crazy . it 's cosmic justice , right ? he was hit by a car . billy : this is n't justice . it 's attempted murder . and as hard as it is for me to say it , what adam did was an accident , and he should n't -- he should n't have to pay for this with his life . ashley : yeah , i heard you say something like that in the courtroom , and frankly , i 'm still trying to get used to it . jack : you know what ? if billy can find a way to forgive adam , maybe we all can . phyllis : yeah , well , that 's easier for some than it is for others . billy : you know , all this forgiveness did n't just come overnight . victoria : and i 've never been more proud of you . billy : the upside to leaving the past in the past is that i 've rediscovered somebody that i 've always been proud of . phyllis : who 's that ? billy : my brother . michael : well , if there 's nothing more i can do here , i 'm gon na go check in on adam . christine : yeah , yeah , thanks for your help . michael : take care of yourself . christine : hey , michael . you were the right attorney for adam . i - i wanted a longer sentence , but ... the ruling was fair . michael : a lot fairer than the hand adam 's been dealt now . [ telephone rings ] christine : chief williams ' office . what ? are you sure ? where ? no , i 'll tell him as soon as i see him . thank you . michael : something about adam ? christine : detectives canvassed the area around the courthouse , and a bystander id 'd the car that hit adam . michael : and ? christine : and the lead pans out . a car matching the description was found at the south lake motel . chelsea : how is he ? stitch : no broken bones , but there 's significant internal bleeding . paul : so what are we looking at ? stitch : he needs emergency surgery . even then , it 'll be touch and go . chelsea : i have to see him , paul . please . i 'm his wife . please let me see him . abby : it 's not like she 's gon na bust him out of there . paul : okay . you can see him . stitch : chelsea , two minutes . it 's all i can give you , all right ? chelsea : okay . okay . i 'm here . adam . i 'm here . i 'm not going anywhere . i 'm not going anywhere . [ sighs ] so do n't you dare leave me . sage : you were right . we are lucky . we have a beautiful baby boy and so much to look forward to . adam 's clinging to life . nick : no matter what adam 's done -- and he has done a lot -- we would n't have christian if it was n't for him . sage : i 'm just praying that they both go home soon . nick : you really think he 's gon na have my sense of humor ? sage : [ chuckles ] [ alarm blares ] nick : what was that ? sage : it 's christian . oh , my god . it 's christian ! billy : thank you for having my back today . jack : hey , i was n't about to let my little brother get railroaded by victor or paul or anybody else for something he did n't do . billy : because you believe in me , which is more than i can say i 've been doing for you lately . jack : i should have handled adam 's identity a whole lot differently , and i 'm sorry . billy : you know what ? it 's in the past . and we 're family . we got a lot to be grateful for . ashley : i 'm starting to feel real warm and fuzzy over here . phyllis : well , do n't get too used to that . that 'll change . victoria : not with paragon still breathing down our necks . ashley : yeah , and , uh , i ca n't forgive adam for what he 's done to me and our family . i 'm sorry . billy : believe me . i get it . but if adam does n't pull through , then chelsea and connor suffer . and i think that that family has suffered enough . jack : you know what ? i have every confidence that adam will pull through . ben rayburn is one of genoa city 's finest doctors . he knows what he 's doing . stitch : the patient is bleeding internally . there 's some compression of organs , but it 's imperative that we stop the bleeding . [ cell phone rings ] paul : yeah , sweetheart . what 's up ? oh , really ? that could be significant . i 'll get a squad out there a.s.a.p . nikki : good news ? paul : yeah . might be . we 're one step closer to finding out who wants adam dead . nikki : thank god . paul : excuse me . stitch : pressure is low . keep an eye on the anesthesia . abby : you 're amazing . stitch : what ? that ? i was just doing my job . abby : no , you 're here saving lives , and i 'm ... stitch : hey , your work is important , too . look , um , about earlier , the champagne , the special dinner ... abby : no . it can wait . all that matters right now is adam . chelsea : we have our dream , remember ? to be a normal family . you , me , and connor . you -- you promised me . you said you would do whatever it takes to make that happen , so i 'm gon na need you to keep your promise .

abby tells ashley that she thought stitch was going to propose to her before he had to go to the hospital . ashley tries to persuade abby to take things slowly with stitch . ashley is n't happy when she finds a ring inside the champagne glass that abby was going to drink before stitch got called to the hospital . victor thinks billy is the person that hit adam with his car , but only adam saw kevin hit him . adam has no broken bones but a lot of internal bleeding . even after an operation to stop the bleeding , there is no guarantee that adam will survive . nick and sage are hopeful that christian will soon be home because he has gained weight . later they fear for their son 's life when christian stops breathing and doctors rush in to try and save him .

[ pager beeps ] stitch : it 's memorial . an emergency . i got to go . abby : yeah . stitch : i 'm so sorry . abby : no , no , go save lives . stitch : look , with luck , it 'll be quick . i 'll come back and -- i 'll come back and we 'll finish where we left off . abby : okay . ashley : well , it looks like the two of you have patched things up . abby : yeah , um ... i know this might sound crazy , but i think ben was about to propose . ashley : really ? wow . that 's nice , huh ? abby : nice ? that 's all you 've got ? ashley : no , i 've -- i 've got more . billy : nobody could make a mud pie like dee dee . [ chuckles ] you know , i know that this feeling , this ... loss is never gon na go away , but for the first time , i feel like i found a way to live without the rage and the guilt . i could n't have done that without you . victoria : she 'd be so proud of you right now . billy : you know , i 've been so angry for so long , and all i wanted to do was punish myself . and i end up hurting you and johnny and katie . and that 's the last thing i ever wanted . victoria , i love you . i love you and our kids and the life that we can give them . victoria : i 'm really glad to hear that . because we love you , too .

[ clears throat ] adam is in the emergency room , and we 're not sure if he 's going to make it . stitch : what do we got ? i know the patient . what happened ? car ran him down outside the courthouse . stitch : all right , i need to get him in a room , stat . let 's lose the handcuffs , all right ? he 's a prisoner . he 's -- stitch : are you kidding me ? ! he 's unconscious ! let 's go ! do it ! chelsea : adam ? adam ? oh , my god . is he gon na be okay ? victor : will he be all right ? stitch : we 'll know something soon , mr. newman . chelsea : oh , god . stitch : all right , we need to cut him out of his clothes , start an i.v . , and begin a neuro exam . alert radiology . we 're gon na need x - rays and a ct scan . let 's go . chelsea : oh , god . sorry , ma'am . he 's broken and he -- he 's in pain . e . chelsea : i have to be in there . i 'm his wife . i 'm sorry , ma'am . nikki : chelsea . we need to let ben do his job . chelsea : but adam -- adam needs me . nikki : he needs medical attention . so the best thing you can do right now is to sit and wait with us , all right ? chelsea : he did the right thing . i mean , he -- he accepted his punishment . he did n't try to run , and now he 's broken and he -- he 's in pain . he 's a victim , and they 're treating him like he 's a criminal . victor : where 's jack , by the way ? phyllis : i have no idea . victor : oh , really ? first billy boy disappears , and now your husband ? phyllis : you know how jack feels about adam . if he is n't at this hospital , there 's a damn good reason . victor : you know what i think ? i think jack went to look for his useless brother because he 's afraid that billy boy was behind the wheel of the car that hit adam . phyllis : you 're upset and you want answers . you were at that court . you heard billy . he did n't do it . victor : i did n't believe a word he said . chelsea : victor , please , can you call somebody ? i have to get in the room . victor : sweetheart , come here . chelsea : connor ca n't lose his dad . victor : adam is going to be okay . connor will see his father . i promise you . i 'll do everything in my power to make sure that happens . paul : so adam newman was the only victim ? okay . all right , keep -- keep me updated . right . i have to go . you were there . what happened ? christine : oh , my god . it happened right in front of me . [ sighs ] i mean , adam did n't have a chance . i saw the car coming , and adam could n't move , and all i could -- all i could think about was the night that nikki and neil hit me , the night we lost our baby . [ sighs ] [ sobs ] paul : it 's okay . what can i do ? can i take you home ? christine : no . no , look , we 've got to deal with this . i mean , you got -- you just got to get my statement . paul : you sure ? christine : yes . yes . paul : all right . come here . just tell me what happened . christine : okay . the judge had just pronounced sentence . adam was being escorted to the prison van , and i 'm telling you , a car came out of nowhere straight for adam . paul : so he -- he was a target ? christine : there 's no doubt . paul : what can you tell me about the car ? make , model , license plate , color ? christine : it was white . paul : uh - huh . [ telephone rings ] paul : oh . christine : no , no . just -- it could be about adam . you got to get it . paul : williams . yeah , victor . how 's adam ? victor : i do n't know . we 're not allowed to see him . i 'm just very concerned that he gets the best possible care . paul : i 'm sure the doctors are doing everything they can . victor : paul , i buried my son once . i 'm not about to do it again . billy : do n't tell me . victor 's already branded me suspect number one . jack : he had to blame someone . billy : and here you are . do you think i did it ? come to see for yourself ? victoria : okay , listen , billy 's been with me the whole time . we left the courthouse , we went to the park to see delia 's tree . i 'm sure there were people that saw us . billy : yeah , but do n't forget to check the surveillance cameras , jack , you know , just in case . jack : i 'm not here to accuse you of anything . i 'm just trying to give you a heads up in case -- billy : in case what ? there 's a pair of handcuffs with my name on them ? victoria : jack , anyone who was in court would know that billy did n't do this . he forgave adam . he took responsibility for his share in delia 's death . it 's not exactly the actions of a man who would run down adam with a car . jack : that may be true , but someone hated adam enough to want him dead , and they may have succeeded . billy : you know , if i had heard this news two years ago , hell , two days ago , i would have thought that adam had it coming . but ... now ... jack : you touched a lot of people with what you said today in the courtroom . me included . listen , i 'm gon na get to the hospital , all right ? billy : um , how 's chelsea doing ? jack : she 's about to lose the man she loves again . and this time , there wo n't be a miraculous return . victoria : let 's go . nikki : hi . sage : hi . how 's adam ? nikki : sweetheart . we 're still waiting to hear . sage : is there anything we can do ? nikki : you could tell me good news . tell me about my grandbaby . nick : christian 's gaining weight . he 's improving every day . sage : and i 'm sensing he 's gon na have his father 's sense of humor . nikki : oh , lord , help us . nick : she does n't mean that . nikki : oh , yeah , i do . [ chuckles ] nick : is that necessary ? victor : well , i asked paul the same question . [ cell phone chimes ] michael : this is paul . he wants me down at the station . let 's see what he can do . excuse me . victor : sit down , son . nick : do n't lose hope , all right ? adam 's ... he 's too rotten to die . sage : hey . are you okay ? i ca n't imagine what it must have been like to be there . chelsea : the car -- it was so fast . i ... it just kept coming . i could n't stop it , and i ... [ voice breaking ] i did n't even have time to warn him . i just -- i just watched , and now -- now he 's in there . sage : when i first met adam , i learned very quickly that he loved you and connor more than anything in the world , chelsea . chelsea : stop talking about him like he 's dead . he 's gon na make it . [ sighs ] he has to . nikki : victor , the kids have an update on our new grandbaby . victor : oh , my goodness . how is christian ? sage : the doctors are pleased with his progress . victor : yeah ? nick : yeah , little man 's getting better every day . he 's gon na need that first pony soon . sage : [ chuckles ] until then , he 's packing on ounces , and his heart is strong . victor : yeah ? well , i 'm not surprised , you know . he 's a newman . strong . we fight . victoria : i 'm so sorry . victor : hi , sweetheart . victoria : hi . any word ? nikki : no , not yet . hi , darling . victor : excuse me . what is he doing here ? victoria : jack gave us the news . we wanted to be here . victor : officer , you might as well arrest him . paul : i 'm gon na need a statement from you , too . christine : i should go and debrief my staff . michael : do n't leave on my account . christine : well , hopefully you 'll be more help than i was . paul : no , chris , you were very helpful . michael : yeah , it was a bit of a shocker . christine : yeah . let 's just focus on catching who did this . paul : chris remembered the color of the car . michael : white . paul : good . we 're batting a thousand on that one . do you remember anything else ? michael : not much . i mean , before any of us could react , the car had slammed into adam and kept going . um , i think it was a sedan , but i would be guessing if i had to give you the make or model . paul : so i suppose a license plate 's out of the question . michael : nothing . i 'm not even sure there was one . paul : what about the driver ? i know you did n't see the face , but , uh , male , female ? anybody else in the car ? passengers , you know ? anything you can remember ? michael : no . i wish i could give you more of a break , but , um , there 's only one thing i know with any certainty . it 's not what i saw or did n't see or what i heard . it 's what i did n't hear . there was no screech of brakes or attempt to stop . whoever hit adam , they meant to kill him . ashley : look , honey , it was n't that long ago the two of you were broken up . you were really into your career and you thought ben was too over - protective . so excuse me if i think this proposal came out of nowhere . abby : not being together made us realize how much we want to be together . being apart brought us closer . ashley : and you 're sure about that ? abby : i love him , mom . ashley : you 've loved a few other people , too . abby : all right . i get it . my track record has n't been the best when it comes to commitment , and am i ready for such a big step ? [ sighs ] fair question . ashley : hey , look , if you have to ask the question , then you 're absolutely not ready . abby : it was totally rhetorical . you 're supposed to say , `` of course you are ready . you and stitch are a match made in heaven . you 're meant to be together . `` ashley : just hold on a second . a committed relationship takes time and energy , and is n't that one of the problems the two of you have always had ? not enough time to really get to know each other ? abby : i had never thought about marriage until i thought ben was gon na propose , and it made me realize how much i want to be ben 's wife . [ cell phone rings ] ashley : seems kind of like a big step to me . hey , jack . what 's up ? you 're kidding me . abby 's here . yeah , i 'll tell her . just keep me posted . abby : what was that ? ashley : oh , my god . adam -- he stepped out of the courthouse , and he was hit by a car . abby : what ? ashley : yeah , he 's at memorial , and all the newmans are there . you should go . abby : okay , yeah . i 'll let you know if i hear anything . ashley : okay , honey . billy : look , i get that i 'm at the top of your list for this , but you 're looking at the wrong person . victor : you put my son in that room , did n't you , huh ? did n't you ? you here now to see what damage you 've done , to gloat ? billy : i came here to support chelsea . victor : you wanted this ! nikki : victor , come on . leave him alone . jack : you heard billy on the witness stand . victor : that was a phony speech . victoria : he 's telling the truth , dad . victor : you gave that phony speech , put the courtroom in tears , then you hightailed out of there , got in your car , and took revenge on my son ! chelsea : everything you said at the trial , is victor right ? were they lies ? billy : chelsea , i meant every word of it . there has been enough pain and anger and guilt , okay ? and i have it on -- i have it on good authority that delia would n't have wanted that . and you and connor helped me see it , too . i just wanted justice for delia 's death . i did n't want revenge . i did n't want this . victor : paul , i 'm glad you 're here . would you kindly ask that officer to step aside so chelsea can see her husband ? paul : believe it or not , victor , there is a protocol to all of this . i 'm here to get statements about what happened to adam . victor : well , then kindly start with billy boy , all right ? you might as well arrest him while you 're at it . paul : six of one . billy , what can you tell me ? billy : that i left . i was n't even there when the judge pronounced sentencing . paul : okay , so where were you ? jack : hold on . leave my brother out of this . paul : [ sighs ] paul : adam was driving the car that hit billy 's daughter . is it a coincidence that the same thing happened to adam ? jack : but you were in the courtroom . billy did what no abbott , no newman has been able to do for decades . he put the past where it belongs -- in the past . i could n't be any prouder of my brother . and there 's no way in hell he was driving the car . victor : paul , this is ridiculous . it 's an abbott defending an abbott . arrest the sob . victoria : okay , hold on a second . billy could n't have done it . he was in the park with me . paul : oh . you know , victoria , it was n't that long ago when you looked me in the eye just as you 're doing now and lied to cover for your father . so it 's not out of the realm of possibilities that you might fabricate another alibi , now , is it ? victoria : whatever i think of adam , he 's my brother . he has a wife and a child . i want whoever did this to be found and held accountable . paul : i 'd like to check out your car , billy . jack : oh , come on , paul , this is ridiculous . billy : no , you know what ? it 's fine . i got nothing to hide . phyllis : is this your idea of cracker jack police work , paul ? why are you harassing billy when the real hit - and - run driver is still out there ? paul : you know , phyllis , i understand that everyone 's nerves are stretched to the limit . but it 's my responsibility to check out every possibility in this case . and this is the first logical place to start . jack : you know what ? you 're right . police have their job . the doctors have theirs . we 're -- we 're in the way . um , if you need us , we will be at the club . paul : i will need those statements . jack : you will get them . chelsea : billy . thank you for coming and for what you said in court . billy : i never thought these words would be coming out of my mouth , but ... i hope adam pulls through . for your sake and for connor 's . nikki : well , there 's no telling how long this is going to take . why do n't you go back and see your beautiful baby boy , give him a kiss for me ? nick : yeah , we can tell him how awesome his grandma is . nikki : there you go . paul : hey , nik , can i talk to you for a moment about what you say outside the courthouse ? nikki : oh , yeah , sure . paul : excuse me . nikki : i 'll see you later . sage : poor chelsea . i tried to comfort her , but all i did was make it worse . nick : you were just trying to help . it 's not gon na be easy for her to get through this . abby : hi . my mom told me about adam . how is he ? chelsea : i wish i knew . ben 's in there , and no one will let me go in and see him , and nobody will tell me what 's going on . and this officer here is guarding the door like adam 's some criminal . can you tell me why this is taking so long ? can you -- can you find somebody to tell me ? abby : adam is in good hands . ben is the best . nikki : one minute , adam was being led to the van , and the next minute ... chaos . paul : well , i understand how that happens . anyway , thanks for your time , nikki . nikki : wait . wait . i have to tell you . when adam was hit , i saw the look on christine 's face . it was that horrible night all over again . i was behind the wheel , and she had nowhere to go . i will never forgive myself . paul : i think we all learned something about forgiveness today . nikki : is christine all right ? paul : oh , she 's amazing . she is , um , she 's like a marvel of strength and resiliency . she really is . i was gon na take her home to get some rest after the trial , and she would have none of it . she wanted to help me find whoever did this . nikki : i envy her strength . i hope the police find the driver soon , 'cause if they leave it up to victor ... wait a minute . where is victor ? oh , my god . if he 's decided to take things into his own hands ... victor : you have been here all day . you must be hungry . why do n't you go have some dinner ? i probably should n't leave him . victor : well , now , his mother 's gon na be at the hospital for quite some time , you know . i 'm so sorry about mr. bingham . i mean mr. newman . victor : yeah , well , you can call chelsea anytime you want to , all right , but she 's gon na be at the hospital for a while . so , i suggest that you have something to eat , all right ? i 'll play with him , okay ? look what we have here . look at this soccer ball . oh , my god . see ? one day you know what we 'll do ? i 'm gon na teach you how to kick that ball from 20 yards out , and it 's gon na go all the way in the upper corner of a goal . yeah . you know that i taught your father how to play ? i wish i taught him more . but , you know , a funny thing happens . time just goes by , and before you know it , it 's too late . but , you know , your daddy loves you very much . you know , some fathers never get a chance to tell their sons that . but he said it today . he said that you 're his life . you 're the most important thing in his life . [ chuckles ] yep . ashley : hey . how 's adam ? jack : it 's remarkable . given the speed of the car and the impact , he should have been dead on arrival , but it 's adam newman . he has cheated death before . phyllis : well , if he 's got eight lives to go , i hope he makes better use of them . ashley : has anybody thought karma here ? i mean , this is just crazy . it 's cosmic justice , right ? he was hit by a car . billy : this is n't justice . it 's attempted murder . and as hard as it is for me to say it , what adam did was an accident , and he should n't -- he should n't have to pay for this with his life . ashley : yeah , i heard you say something like that in the courtroom , and frankly , i 'm still trying to get used to it . jack : you know what ? if billy can find a way to forgive adam , maybe we all can . phyllis : yeah , well , that 's easier for some than it is for others . billy : you know , all this forgiveness did n't just come overnight . victoria : and i 've never been more proud of you . billy : the upside to leaving the past in the past is that i 've rediscovered somebody that i 've always been proud of . phyllis : who 's that ? billy : my brother . michael : well , if there 's nothing more i can do here , i 'm gon na go check in on adam . christine : yeah , yeah , thanks for your help . michael : take care of yourself . christine : hey , michael . you were the right attorney for adam . i - i wanted a longer sentence , but ... the ruling was fair . michael : a lot fairer than the hand adam 's been dealt now . [ telephone rings ] christine : chief williams ' office . what ? are you sure ? where ? no , i 'll tell him as soon as i see him . thank you . michael : something about adam ? christine : detectives canvassed the area around the courthouse , and a bystander id 'd the car that hit adam . michael : and ? christine : and the lead pans out . a car matching the description was found at the south lake motel . chelsea : how is he ? stitch : no broken bones , but there 's significant internal bleeding . paul : so what are we looking at ? stitch : he needs emergency surgery . even then , it 'll be touch and go . chelsea : i have to see him , paul . please . i 'm his wife . please let me see him . abby : it 's not like she 's gon na bust him out of there . paul : okay . you can see him . stitch : chelsea , two minutes . it 's all i can give you , all right ? chelsea : okay . okay . i 'm here . adam . i 'm here . i 'm not going anywhere . i 'm not going anywhere . [ sighs ] so do n't you dare leave me . sage : you were right . we are lucky . we have a beautiful baby boy and so much to look forward to . adam 's clinging to life . nick : no matter what adam 's done -- and he has done a lot -- we would n't have christian if it was n't for him . sage : i 'm just praying that they both go home soon . nick : you really think he 's gon na have my sense of humor ? sage : [ chuckles ] [ alarm blares ] nick : what was that ? sage : it 's christian . oh , my god . it 's christian ! billy : thank you for having my back today . jack : hey , i was n't about to let my little brother get railroaded by victor or paul or anybody else for something he did n't do . billy : because you believe in me , which is more than i can say i 've been doing for you lately . jack : i should have handled adam 's identity a whole lot differently , and i 'm sorry . billy : you know what ? it 's in the past . and we 're family . we got a lot to be grateful for . ashley : i 'm starting to feel real warm and fuzzy over here . phyllis : well , do n't get too used to that . that 'll change . victoria : not with paragon still breathing down our necks . ashley : yeah , and , uh , i ca n't forgive adam for what he 's done to me and our family . i 'm sorry . billy : believe me . i get it . but if adam does n't pull through , then chelsea and connor suffer . and i think that that family has suffered enough . jack : you know what ? i have every confidence that adam will pull through . ben rayburn is one of genoa city 's finest doctors . he knows what he 's doing . stitch : the patient is bleeding internally . there 's some compression of organs , but it 's imperative that we stop the bleeding . [ cell phone rings ] paul : yeah , sweetheart . what 's up ? oh , really ? that could be significant . i 'll get a squad out there a.s.a.p . nikki : good news ? paul : yeah . might be . we 're one step closer to finding out who wants adam dead . nikki : thank god . paul : excuse me . stitch : pressure is low . keep an eye on the anesthesia . abby : you 're amazing . stitch : what ? that ? i was just doing my job . abby : no , you 're here saving lives , and i 'm ... stitch : hey , your work is important , too . look , um , about earlier , the champagne , the special dinner ... abby : no . it can wait . all that matters right now is adam . chelsea : we have our dream , remember ? to be a normal family . you , me , and connor . you -- you promised me . you said you would do whatever it takes to make that happen , so i 'm gon na need you to keep your promise . [ voice breaking ] we have a life to live , a happy , full , amazing life , and i do n't care if it 's genoa city or if it 's in paris or if it 's on the moon . i just need you to -- i just need you to come back to me , okay ? [ sniffles ] i just need you to come back to me and come back to connor so we can -- so we can have our dream . stitch : let 's get him to the or . chelsea : can i just have one more minute , please ? stitch : chelsea , adam does not have a lot of time . chelsea : okay , just -- just take care of him , okay ? stitch : we will . victor : you know what i want to do ? i 'm gon na speak to the big father in heaven , you know . now , i do n't -- i 'm not asking for a favor . i guess what i 'm saying is that i 'm asking for a blessing for this little boy . not for me , not for my son , but for my grandson . for you . i want the lord to save your daddy . i want him to save your daddy so that he can be here for you , because you need him , you know ? i lost my father -- connor : airplane . victor : that 's right . because ... well , i 'm praying -- i 'm praying to the good lord , and i want him to protect you by bringing back your daddy , okay ? make sure that he does n't go to prison for a long time . he comes back to be with you . nick : what 's happening ? sage : what 's wrong with my baby ? i need you to stand back . he stopped breathing . nick : come on , come on . [ next_on ] ashley : you know what ? i 'm sorry . it was n't that long ago you told me you could n't get me off your mind . that 's a little disturbing . jack : go ahead . get it out . victor : i want to thank you . paul : damn it . kevin : [ gasps ] mariah ! oh , my god .Summarize.[/INST]abby tells ashley that she thought stitch was going to propose to her before he had to go to the hospital . ashley tries to persuade abby to take things slowly with stitch . ashley is n't happy when she finds a ring inside the champagne glass that abby was going to drink before stitch got called to the hospital . victor thinks billy is the person that hit adam with his car , but only adam saw kevin hit him . adam has no broken bones but a lot of internal bleeding . even after an operation to stop the bleeding , there is no guarantee that adam will survive . nick and sage are hopeful that christian will soon be home because he has gained weight . later they fear for their son 's life when christian stops breathing and doctors rush in to try and save him .</s>

[ scene_break ] brody : why is it impossible for markko to have assaulted robert ford ? langston : because he could n't have . markko is the kindest , gentlest , most loving person that i 've ever known , and he 's not capable of killing anybody , no matter how angry he gets -- téa : langston , thank you very much , but i 'll be defending markko from now on . do you have an arrest warrant ? brody : be my guest . it 's good . téa : the sneakers ? that 's it ? that 's the extent of your so - called evidence against my client ? brody : treads on the shoe match the bloody shoeprint at the scene . téa : how do you even know they 're markko 's ? brody : we found the receipts for them in his apartment . téa : oh , you searched his apartment illegally -- brody : we had a warrant for that , and it 's good , too . you can check it out at the station . téa : and you found those sneakers in a dumpster ? brody : right out back behind markko 's place of business where he already told us he spent last night . téa : that 's circumstantial . you have no proof those sneakers are the same ones worn during the crime . brody : lab analysis will match the blood on those shoes to the victim . téa : or that he was the one who threw them out in the dumpster last night . brody : we have an eyewitness who saw him do it .

[ papers hit desk ] [ opens door ] todd : gents , miss o'connor 's leaving . hannah : what , you 're just gon na let me walk out of here ? todd : no one saw you come in , no one 's gon na see you leave . so it 's pointless to go babbling that you got kidnapped or something . plus , people might start to think you 're crazy . todd : stay on her . i want to know where she goes next . [ scene_break ] guard : you 're getting some company , thornhart . cole : it 's late for visitors . markko : dude . dude , i 'm not visiting .

[ scene_break ] starr : hey . langston : god , starr . thank god you came . wait . what 's wrong ? starr : i just came from the jail . langston : did you see markko ? starr : markko ?

[ scene_break ] langston : someone tried to kill ford last night . starr : what ? [ scene_break ] markko : the guy 's in the hospital . he could die , man , not that i do n't think he does n't deserve it . [ scene_break ] starr : they think markko did it ? that 's crazy ! langston : i know , but markko was so upset at ford , i mean -- starr : okay , well , he ca n't let them railroad him . markko needs to get a good lawyer . langston : he has one . [ scene_break ] téa : you 're not to discuss this case with anyone , not even your friends . are we clear ? markko : i 'm sorry . téa : do you understand me ? not one word . this could turn into a murder charge . cole : i never thought things would go this far . [ scene_break ] langston : i know markko 's innocent . starr : okay , and i know he is , too . and i know that you 're scared , but you need to calm down because téa will get markko out of this . langston : but it 's my fault . this is all my fault . starr , look , i know that i have no right to ask you this , but ... if i ever needed my best friend i need you right now . [ scene_break ] markko : things just got out of hand . cole : how did it all end up like this ? you know , the four of us -- we had it all . [ scene_break ] starr : i need my best friend , too , now more than ever . [ scene_break ] heavy : you 're slipping , mr. m . todd : pardon me ? heavy : letting that girl go without getting a written confession . todd : geez . see , this is why i 'm the boss and you 're the muscle . it was n't about coercing a confession . i just wanted to rattle hannah 's cage , let her know i 'm not gon na stop until she admits she did n't see me push marty . or better yet till she admits she did it herself . heavy : you think it worked ? todd : it does n't matter . i got something else . looks like that little liar 's the gift that keeps on giving . marty and i might not have been her only victims . [ scene_break ] hannah : excuse me . i was wondering if i could get an update on a patient . robert ford . nurse annemarie : are you a relative ? hannah : no . a friend . a friend who cares what happens to him .

[ alarm clock rings ] bo : mornin ' , red . nora : [ chuckles ] what time is it ? bo : it 's time to get married .
markko gets arrested and taken to jail for the attempted murder of ford although tea is ready to defend him . ole is also in jail and he and starr still ca n't come to terms with the fact that she believes her dad did not push his mom down the stairs and that hannah is lying . meanwhile , todd is confident he `` has the goods `` on hannah and is ready to write an article in the sun that she looks like a suspect to want to kill ford and therefore has no credibility with her accusation of him ( todd ) . bo and nora are ready to get married . jessica has her memory back and is relieved to see that it appears she is not a suspect for what happened to ford . yet natalie and brody wonder if they should reveal to jessica and to john that they slept together .
<s>[INST] brody : markko rivera , you 're under arrest for the attempted murder of robert ford . you have the right to remain silent . anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law . you have the right to an attorney . if you can not afford an att -- markko : i already have an attorney . téa : markko , do n't say anything . okay ? brody : fine . let 's go . téa : okay . langston : no ! you ca n't arrest markko for something he did n't do . [ scene_break ] john : yeah , i need an update on the assault victim that was brought into the o.r . nurse annemarie : robert ford ? john : yeah , that 's the one . nurse annemarie : we just got word on him . he 's out of surgery , but his condition 's still critical . [ scene_break ] bo : jessica ? jessica : uncle bo . bo : hi . is everything all right ? [ scene_break ] [ john sighs ] [ knock on door ] john : come on in . hey . natalie : hey . i just -- i came by to say ... i missed you . john : i miss you , too . [ scene_break ] viki : nora ! hi ! nora : hi ! viki : what a nice surprise ! nora : oh , i hope you think it 's nice when you hear the big favor i want to ask you . [ scene_break ] cole : if you could be wrong about your best friend , you could be wrong about your dad . starr : that 's completely different , cole . cole : how ? starr : because my dad swore on his love for me . he swore on the lives of his children , on hope 's life . cole : and langston swore on your friendship that she would break up with ford . all right , they swore on the things that meant the most to you , but langston lied the whole time . so how do you know your dad did n't lie ? [ scene_break ] todd : larry does good work , does n't he ? what 's the matter ? you know that guy ? hannah : no . todd : then why the bug eyes then ? hannah : it 's just ... gruesome . todd : god , you are pathological , are n't you ? hannah : what ? todd : well , you 're lying about having seen me push marty saybrooke down the stairs , and now you 're lying about this . why ? [ scene_break ] brody : langston , we have evidence that links markko to the crime . langston : i do n't care . he 's not guilty . it 's impossible . brody : impossible why ? [ scene_break ] starr : i 've known my father for my entire life , okay ? we have this special connection that i just ca n't put into words . cole : langston 's been your friend for years . starr : that 's not the same . cole : you lived together . you share everything . you told me that you could basically read each other 's minds . starr : well , apparently i ca n't . cole : exactly . you think you would know if your friend was lying to you , but you did n't . starr : okay , well , i did n't need to know the truth about langston and ford . i mean , it was n't a matter of life or death . cole : okay , you made langston swear on your friendship . is that not important ? look , i 'm just trying to get you to see that you might not know people as well as you think you do . like your best friend , your dad , come on . do n't you get that ? starr : yes ! i get it ! [ scene_break ] hannah : i 'm not lying . i 'm not signing anything that says i lied about what i saw or that i 'm guilty of doing anything to dr. saybrooke . so why do n't you tell your goons on the other side of the door to let me leave . todd : well , i ca n't . hannah : what now ? you gon na torture me ? todd : i bet that would turn you on , would n't it ? hannah : you 're sick . todd : i do n't have to torture you . it 's obvious what drives you crazy . hannah : being held against my will by a rapist ? todd : journalism . what do you think i oughta run as a headline ? hmm ? how about `` t.a . gets k.o.d `` ? [ hannah sighs ] todd : you know what , here 's the story that 's gon na run . `` robert ford , graduate student and teaching assistant at llanview university , was assaulted last night . he was found in the bed in his apartment , `` blah , blah , blah , blah . now , you go to llanview , right ? i bet if i dug a little , i 'd find out that your path and mr. ford 's path crossed . hannah : yeah . [ sniffs ] sure . that 's front page news . `` student at l.u . , hannah o'connor , may have randomly seen the victim on campus . `` continued in section 12 . todd : i do n't need that much space to figure out what you guys had in common . in fact , i think i 've already got a whole new angle on this story . [ scene_break ] brody : why is it impossible for markko to have assaulted robert ford ? langston : because he could n't have . markko is the kindest , gentlest , most loving person that i 've ever known , and he 's not capable of killing anybody , no matter how angry he gets -- téa : langston , thank you very much , but i 'll be defending markko from now on . do you have an arrest warrant ? brody : be my guest . it 's good . téa : the sneakers ? that 's it ? that 's the extent of your so - called evidence against my client ? brody : treads on the shoe match the bloody shoeprint at the scene . téa : how do you even know they 're markko 's ? brody : we found the receipts for them in his apartment . téa : oh , you searched his apartment illegally -- brody : we had a warrant for that , and it 's good , too . you can check it out at the station . téa : and you found those sneakers in a dumpster ? brody : right out back behind markko 's place of business where he already told us he spent last night . téa : that 's circumstantial . you have no proof those sneakers are the same ones worn during the crime . brody : lab analysis will match the blood on those shoes to the victim . téa : or that he was the one who threw them out in the dumpster last night . brody : we have an eyewitness who saw him do it . [ scene_break ] jessica : i 'm fine , uncle bo . i 'm just a little tired . bo : wild night , huh ? were you partying after the prom and ... jessica : [ sighs ] actually , it was a really wild night . i got my memories back . bo : you serious ? jessica : yeah . i remember my whole entire life and all the people in it -- brody , natalie , bree . i remember that i 'm a grownup and not a senior in high school . bo : well , that 's incredible ! oh , that 's wonderful news ! jessica : thank you . yeah , it is . so , are you here on a case ? bo : no , i 'm just here seeing the doctor , getting a clean bill of health , you know , after my wound -- just in time for my wedding . jessica : oh , of course ! congratulations ! bo : thank you very much , but you can tell me that tomorrow if you want . you can be there , ca n't you ? jessica : oh , of course i can . yes , yes . bo : okay . so you 're at the hospital for ... jessica : i had an appointment with marty . you know , my parents thought it could n't hurt . bo : clint and viki must be thrilled . jessica : yeah , i think they had enough of me being a teenager the first time around . bo : yeah , ha ha ! well , we all wanted you to just get well , that 's all . so now you remember everything ? jessica : actually , i 'm not sure . [ scene_break ] nora : rachel has the flu . viki : oh , well , that 's terrible . nora : and she 's in chicago so she ca n't be here tomorrow for the wedding . viki : oh , well , i 'll just have a `` banner `` photographer take lots of pictures , and we 'll send them to her . nora : oh , thank you . that 's very generous of you , but that 's not quite as big as the favor i 'm about to ask you . i know this is ridiculously last minute , but it would mean the world to me if you would stand in and be my matron of honor ? viki : oh ho ho ! absolutely ! yes ! i would love to . it would be an honor . nora : oh , yes . oh , wonderful ! terrific ! thank you , thank you so much . okay , well , that 's a plan taken care of . viki : yeah , and anything you need me to do , any help you need , just let me know . nora : i need to make a list , but i do n't even know what i need . i know that sounds ridiculous considering it should be second nature to me with all the practice i 've had . but this time 's different . this time 's the last time . viki : well , you 're marrying the man you love . that 's what 's important . nora : yes , i know what you 're thinking . i mean , a year ago , you were marrying charlie . i was marrying clint . clint : we all know how that turned out . [ scene_break ] natalie : i , uh ... guess that takes care of the missing you part , but we need to talk . john : what 's on your mind ? natalie : ha ! well , you know , oh , you coming to the airport and stopping me from leaving the country , admitting that we both have feelings for each other . john : oh , yeah , that . natalie : yeah , it 's kind of been radio silence since then . you know , not a call or text . john : i do n't know how to text . natalie : i know . i know you 're not avoiding me . you 're not avoiding me , right ? john : you really have to ask me that ? natalie : i know , i know . i 'm just having a lot of trouble believing that this is real . john : what happened at the airport was real . natalie : a whole lot changed last night . john : yeah . brody told me . natalie : uhh ! he did ? john : what ? he should n't have told me about jessica getting her memory back ? natalie : oh ! no . no , no . i mean , it 's not like it 's a big secret or anything . it 's just that i do n't think that any of the other family knew . so i guess i was just surprised that you knew . john : well , i guess he was happy . he could n't keep it to himself . natalie : yeah ! yeah , it 's really great news getting my sister back , especially after all of these months of her treating me like a stranger . you 're good , mcbain . john : what ? natalie : steering the subject on to brody and jessica instead of you and me . john : marty moved out . natalie : she did ? john : this morning . natalie : you know that i never , never wanted to hurt anyone . john : neither did i . natalie : so ... we 've admitted how we feel about each other , so ... you 're free . i 'm free . what happens now ? [ scene_break ] brody : the woman whose house backs onto the alley heard a noise in the middle of the night . she looked out the window and saw someone throw the sneakers in the dumpster . langston : and she 's saying that it 's markko ? she 's lying . téa : langston . langston . brody : she 's a regular here . she had no problem id'ing markko . markko : okay , okay , look , look , the reason you found those sneakers -- téa : markko ! let . me . do . the talking ! the evidence is flimsy at best , but we have no choice but to accompany officer lovett to the station . markko : okay . langston : markko , i 'm so sorry . markko : it 's a little late for that , do n't you think ? brody : come on , let 's go . langston : téa , there is no way that markko tried to kill ford last night . téa : do n't worry . i got this . langston : well , is n't there anything i can do to help him ? téa : not unless you know who really attacked ford . [ scene_break ] cole : so you 're willing to admit that your dad could be wrong and that he 's lying to you , too . starr : that is not what i said . cole : that 's what you just said ! starr : i said that i understand , okay ? i can see how my belief in my dad would seem similar to my belief in langston , but i still know that my dad is innocent ! cole : that does n't make any sense . starr : okay , it might not make sense to you , but it makes perfect sense to me , cole . i know that in my heart my dad is right and that he 's telling the truth , okay . i ca n't explain it beyond that . i 'm sorry . cole : i ca n't believe you still ca n't even consider that your dad might be lying to you . starr : well , i ca n't believe that you wo n't even consider that the one who 's lying is hannah . [ scene_break ] hannah : what angle ? todd : oh , well , the reason you flipped your lid just now over some guy that you claim to have randomly met , perhaps , i 'd say you know him pretty well . hannah : you 're facing murder charges and all you can do is ask me about some guy i might know ? todd : oh , so you admit it , huh ? you and ford were friends . hannah : obsess much ? todd : oh , wait a minute . my daughter starr told me that the reason you tried to kill yourself was over some guy who dumped you . was ford the guy ? hannah : my personal life is none of your business , you pervert ! todd : i want you to understand something . you 're the only one standing between me and life in prison . so everything in your life is my business from here on out , you understand ? including your relationship with ford . [ scene_break ] jessica : everything 's filled in since high school , all the people in it -- brody , natalie , bree . i remember what made me forget . bo : that mitch laurence -- jessica : i 'm dealing with what he did to me . but what i 'm wondering is , if an emotional trauma could make me forget years of my life , then maybe another trauma could make me forget again ? bo : will it put you back in high school again ? jessica : maybe not that dramatic , just a ... if memory 's fragile , then maybe i could lose something else , even minutes , perhaps . i ... bo : i do n't know . that 's why it 's such a good idea that you 're talking to marty . i think she can help you work through this . nurse annemarie : excuse me , commissioner buchanan . bo : yes . nurse annemarie : are you here about the patient robert ford ? bo : no , my lieutenant john mcbain , he 's taking care of that case . why ? was ford able to tell us anything about what happened to him ? nurse annemarie : it does n't look good for him . bo : oh , god . thank you . gee ... did you know a guy named robert ford ? jessica : uh , he was cristian and layla 's roommate . i met him once or twice . bo : ah , then you got to be worrying about him , too . jessica : yeah , i heard about what happened to him . i just wanted to make sure he was okay . i hope he makes it . bo : well , he 's lucky to have survived that head trauma . if we had a motive , then i think we could figure out who did this to him . jessica : uncle bo , there 's something i have to tell you .

[ scene_break ] nikolas : so you 're my uncle valentin . valentin : oh , i 'm so relieved you know who i am . can you imagine if i announced , `` i am valentin cassadine `` and i 'm just met with confused silence ? that would 've been awkward . dante : well , that 's great . maybe now you can tell us why you 're holding us all at gunpoint . valentin : oh , is this too much ? you 're probably right . i come in here with armed henchmen , take everybody hostage , take mr. morgan and his lady friend upstairs -- that was probably overkill . [ chuckles ] lulu : where did you take them ? what have you done with them ? valentin : listen , they are fine , and they will remain so ... as long as they do n't do anything stupid . now can we please get on to business ? nikolas : listen , what do you want ? and why are you doing this ? valentin : what do i want ? where do i start ? i know -- with the cassadine book , where i receive only a brief mention . here i am -- the bastard son ...

[ scene_break ] jordan : you know what ? uh , for the time being , let 's just -- let 's just keep it at `` thanks `` . curtis : thanks ? oh . all right . you 're welcome . jordan : listen , curtis , i am so grateful to you . i mean , tj is finally moving past what i did , and now we have a fresh start . i mean , we are actually going to visit shawn at pentonville tomorrow . curtis : you are ? jordan : andré . andré : i 'm not late , so you ca n't be too surprised to see me . jordan : [ laughs ] no , um , you remember curtis , right ? andré : of course . curtis : hey , how you doing ? andré : good . curtis : oh , right . how you doing ? andré : good to see you . curtis : yeah . uh , well , look . um , you guys kick it . enjoy your dinner . i have a meeting with my boss , so you 'll have to excuse me . i 'm out . andré : so is something going on with tj ?

[ breathes deeply ] [ scene_break ] griffin : officer spencer , still here ? valerie : yeah . every officer is being assigned extra shifts here until we catch the hospital killer . griffin : is there any movement on that front ? valerie : i 'm a rookie , so when the perp is finally apprehended , i 'll probably have to find out on social media . griffin : got somewhere to be ? valerie : yes , thank god . i 'm almost off duty . griffin : so i 'm guessing you 're not taking julian jerome to his arraignment ? valerie : julian 's being released ? i heard he was in bad shape . griffin : he bounced back . for most people , that would probably be a good thing , but considering he 's headed to prison , i ca n't imagine he 's too happy about that . valerie : well , he 'd better get used to it . the case they 've got against him is airtight . julian 's looking at a life sentence .

[ scene_break ] jordan : thank you for stopping by before julian 's arraignment . alexis : what can i do for you ? jordan : i just wanted to thank you for -- once again , for helping out with bringing julian down . alexis : sending him to prison will be thanks enough . diane : of course , we will be requesting an affidavit from the pcpd and the da 's office , respectively , detailing alexis ' pivotal assistance in this investigation . to wit -- she wore a wire , she risked her life to get a confession that will directly lead to julian 's conviction . jordan : the affidavit is already being worked on . tonight is about the arraignment . now , this is the first time that you 're going to be seeing julian since the arrest . is that correct ? alexis : yes . jordan : seeing him -- it 's , uh , it 's gon na be difficult . there 's really no way to predict your reaction . alexis : i 'm an attorney . i 'm familiar with courtroom decorum . jordan : i 'm glad you 're feeling confident , and i think it 's good that you showed up to the arraignment , which begins very soon . i 've got two uniforms showing up to the hospital to pick julian up .

[ scene_break ] nikolas : so you 're my uncle valentin . valentin : oh , i 'm so relieved you know who i am . can you imagine if i announced , `` i am valentin cassadine `` and i 'm just met with confused silence ? that would 've been awkward . dante : well , that 's great . maybe now you can tell us why you 're holding us all at gunpoint . valentin : oh , is this too much ? you 're probably right . i come in here with armed henchmen , take everybody hostage , take mr. morgan and his lady friend upstairs -- that was probably overkill .

[ scene_break ] jordan : you know what ? uh , for the time being , let 's just -- let 's just keep it at `` thanks `` . curtis : thanks ? oh . all right . you 're welcome . jordan : listen , curtis , i am so grateful to you . i mean , tj is finally moving past what i did , and now we have a fresh start . i mean , we are actually going to visit shawn at pentonville tomorrow . curtis : you are ? jordan : andré . andré : i 'm not late , so you ca n't be too surprised to see me . jordan : [ laughs ] no , um , you remember curtis , right ? andré : of course . curtis : hey , how you doing ? andré : good . curtis : oh , right . how you doing ? andré : good to see you . curtis : yeah . uh , well , look . um , you guys kick it . enjoy your dinner . i have a meeting with my boss , so you 'll have to excuse me . i 'm out . andré : so is something going on with tj ? [ scene_break ] diane : all right , first things first . if you decide to keep the baby , then , of course , julian must never be allowed any access , but if you decide not to keep the child , he can not be allowed to intervene in any way . either way , the choice is yours and yours alone . alexis : diane . thank you for the ferocious support . there 's no decision to make . i 'm not pregnant . diane : oh , thank god . alexis : yes , the almighty has spoken . diane : no -- i mean -- i - it 's not that , it 's that now we have about a million fewer things to worry about than we did two seconds ago . alexis : that 's one way of looking at it . diane : how are you ? alexis : in what sense ? diane : i mean , are you okay ? alexis : no . but on the plus side , i 'm not pregnant with my murderous husband 's child . of course , on the minus side , my murderous husband framed me , tried to kill me .

[ scene_break ] andrew : hey , starr . you 're early . starr : hi , andrew . i just wanted to be here by myself for a while to think . andrew : of course . i understand . starr : wait . you and cassie lost a child , too , right ? andrew : william . starr : what was that like for you ? andrew : hard . i was angry -- oh , i was so angry , i just wanted to break things . i was mad at the whole world . mad at god most of all . starr : you ? andrew : yeah , i told him i hated him . i asked him how could he take such a defenseless , such an innocent life . i would have willingly given mine instead . i wanted some answers . starr : did you get any ? andrew : no , no answers . and i think that 's the hardest part to take , you know ? sometimes our worst pain has no rhyme , no reason whatsoever . [ scene_break ] brody : hey , jessica . tess ? jessica : no , no , it 's me . it 's jessica . brody : i 'm sorry , it just looked like something 's wrong . what is it ? jessica : i just -- i just ca n't help thinking , what if it was my baby that died ? brody : you have n't been saying much , and you seem like you 're in pretty bad shape . should i get dr. levin ? jessica : no , it 's not like that . it 's just really sad . brody : what happened ? jessica : starr is burying her baby today . she gave birth to her the same day that i gave birth to chloe , and her baby , hope , she did n't make it . she died right after she was born . i just feel really awful for her . you know , i do n't know what i 'd do if -- brody : hey , it did n't happen , okay ? jessica : i just did n't get to tell her , you know ? and i feel so guilty that she lost her baby and i get to keep mine . [ scene_break ] viki : i hope they were n't too much trouble for you . natalie : oh , no . bree and chloe were such little angels . right , jared ? jared : yeah , angels . viki : thank you , again for taking care of them . so as i told you on the telephone last night , charlie and i are back together . natalie : i 'm so happy , mom . viki : and the reason i was n't here last night is because i was with charlie and we had a wonderful night . jared : well , you better have . viki : i 'm sorry ? natalie : nothing . we should probably get going to the service . viki : oh , okay . jared ? jared : yeah . viki : you 're sure you can handle these two for another couple of hours ? i mean , it was so nice of you to offer . [ jared scoffs ] jared : yeah , i 've got it under control . viki : really ? jared : and if i do n't , there 's always lois . viki : oh , yes , lois to the rescue . that 's what jessie always says . [ jared chuckles ] viki : i have to wonder what 's going on in her little mind . natalie : yeah , i think she misses her mommy . i just wish she was a little older so i could explain it . viki : i do n't think it would make much difference . you know , she misses her . so we just have to do the best we possibly can and make sure that they have the best christmas possible under the circumstances . and then maybe -- maybe santa will bring jessie home to us . [ scene_break ] langston : hey , come in . what are you doing here ? markko : well , i thought you might want a ride to the church . langston : you 're coming ? markko : well , i never , you know , lost anyone before , so -- i mean , i do n't know how these things work . i did n't think you needed an invitation , but if you do n't want me to go -- langston : of course i want you to go . markko , i need you . [ scene_break ] dorian : i 'm glad you decided not to take the boys . blair : yeah , i just do n't think the funeral is the right place for them to be . so , langston found this in starr 's room ? dorian : yes , she left it and went out of the house . must have been the crack of dawn because i was up really early and i did n't hear her leave . blair : what do you think it means ? dorian : i think it means exactly what starr wrote . she just wants to be alone for a while . i phoned st. james . she 's in good hands . [ scene_break ] starr : i thought it was your job as a minister to know this stuff . [ andrew chuckles ] andrew : well , i used to think that , too . but i think one of the biggest lessons that you learn in seminary is that you just ca n't give people the answers that they 're looking for . starr : then what 's the point ? andrew : the point is that you try to give them tools . tools that will help them find the answers they 're looking for inside themselves . starr : is n't that like sliding by ? andrew : well , i guess it kind of sounds that way , but , you know , my results are pretty good . i guess you 'll just have to trust me on that . starr : what about these tools ? andrew : you 've got a lot of friends , starr , a lot of family that love you . you 've got to open up to them , and you 've got to tell them how you 're feeling . starr : that 's it ? andrew : and if anybody tells you to move on or cheer up or to get over it , you tell them to get lost . starr : i can get behind that . andrew : but i think you might be surprised at how much -- how much comfort you can get when you share a loss like this with people who care , so do n't be afraid to lean on them . [ scene_break ] cole : yeah , this is like the fourth time that i 've ever worn a suit . three out of the four times , to a funeral for someone i loved . marty : yeah , i guess i 'd swear off suits , too . you scared ? cole : i do n't know how i 'm going to do it . you know , face everybody . marty : well , just keep your mind on a couple of things . do n't let anybody push you into talking if you 're not ready to . and do n't let anybody tell you that you 're going to have another baby one day and that 's going to make up for it , because nothing is going to replace the daughter that you lost . and just one more thing . there is no manual or time period for mourning . you do what you want to do . cole : you can still do it . marty : do what ? cole : make me feel better about things . cole : well , uh , i 'll see you downstairs ? we should probably leave in about half an hour or so . marty : i 'm sorry , cole . i ca n't go with you . [ scene_break ] michael : that was gigi again . she could n't switch the therapy session with rex and shane . marcie : i told her it was okay if she could n't make the service . michael : yeah , well , she 's your friend . she really wanted to be there . that was for hope ? marcie : yeah , and all i have to put in it is this copy of her birth certificate . i mean , at least with tommy we had memories , but i never got a chance to know hope . and i 'll never get to know what her smile looks like or what the sound of her voice sounds like or her laugh . i wo n't remember anything we said or we did . i just -- i do n't know how i 'm supposed to do this , michael . i -- i do n't know how i 'm supposed to get through this again . michael : hey , we 'll do it like we always do it -- together . [ scene_break ] marty : things just did n't go very well the last time i left the house . and dorian and starr 's mother are going to be there today . i do n't want to cause any problems for you , not today . cole : all right , you would n't . marty : i could -- i might . and this should n't be about me . it 's about you and starr and -- and your baby , and you should be able to focus on that . you should n't have to worry about me and what might happen if i 'm there . cole : i just thought since hope was your granddaughter , and even for a while there , you thought you were going to raise her yourself with todd . sorry , i did n't mean to bring it up . marty : no , it 's okay . it 's okay . will you be okay ? cole : yeah , sure . i better get going . marty : what 's this ? cole : it 's a book that you used to read to me when i was little . it has my favorite poem in it , `` jabberwocky . `` i wanted you to have it . marty : thank you . [ scene_break ] jessica : i just should have stayed in my room instead of having a meltdown out here . brody : if it 'll make you feel better , i could do my best tarzan . jessica : excuse me ? brody : you know , the tarzan yell ? i 've never done it without six or seven beers under my belt , but i can try . i mean , i 've got no shame . jessica : oh , i believe you . that 's okay . brody : nobody would probably notice around here , anyway . [ jessica chuckles ] jessica : yeah . i 'm sorry . i do n't know why this is hitting me so hard . i mean , i 've known about starr 's baby for a while now . brody : well , is it because you ca n't be with your own kids ? jessica : yeah , maybe . but i know they 're healthy and they 're happy and they 're with my family . they 're with tons of people that love them . brody : but it 's tough . it 's the worst thing there is , when a little kid dies . [ scene_break ] starr : how can i ask anything from everyone that i love ? i have screwed up their lives so much already . andrew : i do n't think they feel that way . starr : it 's true . and it all started when cole and i went to bed together . my dad went crazy . my mom kicked him out of the house and they got divorced . and then i found that i was pregnant . my dad could n't stand the fact that i was going to give my baby to marcie mcbain , so he did that sick thing to cole 's mother . did you hear about that ? he kept her in his house , cole not knowing that his mother was still alive . and then marcie , she lost another child and it is all because of me . how can i ask anything of any of them ? andrew : i do n't think you 'll have to ask . these are your friends . these are your family . they are asking already , `` how can we help starr ? what can we do ? `` tell them how you 're feeling , starr . they 'll be grateful . singer : running rings around the roses the children sing of the sadness life exposes in perfect rhyme in perfect time they tumble to the ground it 's just a game but just the same we all fall down we all fall down we all fall andrew : we 're gathered here in god 's healing embrace to remember hope manning mcbain and to deliver her into his grace . and it hurts to do this , but we take comfort in the knowledge that even death can not separate us from god 's good purpose for his children . and we ask him now for comfort . and we ask special consideration for starr and cole and marcie , who were so blessed to have loved hope during her brief stay with us on this earth . let us pray . [ scene_break ] jessica : when i first saw the article on starr 's baby 's funeral , it was like this wave of sadness just kind of swept over me . brody : well , sure , it would do that . you said she 's your cousin ? jessica : yeah . she was only 16 when she got pregnant , so she was going to have the baby and give it up for adoption to this really wonderful lady who ca n't have kids . and i feel really awful for them , but , i do n't know , i also feel like -- it 's like my own baby died , you know ? and i do n't understand why i feel that way . [ scene_break ] marty : `` ' twas brillig , and the slithy toves did gyre and gimble in the wabe . he took his vorpal sword in hand long time the manxome foe he sought . so rested he by the tumtum tree . `` [ scene_break ] andrew : as we contemplate the brief life of baby hope , our souls are burdened with many difficult questions . how , why ? for what reason would god take so innocent a life ? these questions have not only lingered in the hearts of starr and cole and marcie and all their families , but in all of our hearts . as i told starr earlier , sometimes there are n't any answers . there 's just no way to understand what 's happened or to make sense of it . all we can do is grieve and heal . that 's our purpose here today , to mourn the loss of hope and to ask god to help us . and most importantly , to help starr and cole and marcie through a terrible , terrible loss . but they ca n't do it alone . they will stumble . you must catch them . they will grow weary , and you must offer sustenance . they will weep , and you must listen to each other , all of you together . and when you search in your hearts for those words that might ease the pain or assuage the grief , you 'll find them wanting , as fruitless as searching for answers to those unanswerable questions . but what you can do is express your sorrow and your grief . you can offer words of love and care and support . you can say that we will pray for you , and we will . but most importantly , we can all take knowledge and comfort in knowing that today there 's another angel in heaven . and that angel is nestled very close to god . and as the tears flow , try to let them wash away the pain that will surely come in the days and months ahead . michael : so we 're going to head on over to the cemetery if you want a ride . john : no , i 'll drive myself , all right ? i 'll see you over there . michael : okay . marcie : thank you . john , thank you for coming . john : no place i 'd be . blair : well , for a tough guy , you sure are being awfully sweet today . john : i meant what i said . dorian : where is marty ? you 'd think she 'd be at her granddaughter 's funeral . i 'm just concerned about cole . john : i 'll keep an eye out for him . dorian : thank you , john . blair : will you -- dorian : do n't turn on me . i am just expressing how i feel . blair : i just want you to do me a favor , please , by going home to check on mama . she 's got the boys , and i know this is hard for her , too , please . dorian : really ? well , all right , if you want me to . blair : i 'd -- yes , please . dorian : that 's for hope . blair : thank you . langston : you sure you do n't want me to go to the cemetery ? starr : yes , i 'm sure . i know this is hard on you and my mom and marcie . and cole , too . langston : well , i 'm skipping school today , so i 'll be around when you get back . starr : okay , thank you . markko : if you want me to stick around -- cole : no , it 's cool . it 's just a small thing at the cemetery . you do n't need to be there . langston : all right , i 'll see you later , okay ? blair : we should get going , sweetie , okay ? starr : yeah . blair : okay . john : you hanging in there ? cole : yeah , i 'm okay . hey , thanks for coming . it means a lot . john : to me , too . how 's your mom doing ? cole : she was n't feeling up to it . john : you know , cole , she 's going to need time . cole : yeah . that 's all i can do , right ? [ scene_break ] brody : why would n't you take it hard over your cousin losing her baby ? you just had a baby yourself . you 've probably got all that hormone stuff going on . jessica : no , i think it 's more than that . brody : sure , it is . just because your baby 's being taken care of does n't mean it does n't hurt like hell that you ca n't be with her . it 's got to feel like you lost a baby yourself . i was n't a dad for very long . i really was n't a dad at all , but i found out what it was to feel like one and what it 's like to be scared that something could happen to your kid , and you 'll lose them . i think that 's something all parents go through . jessica : maybe you 're right . maybe that 's what it is . brody : what else can it be , right ? jessica : it 's just weird . anyways , thanks for trying to help . brody : anytime . [ scene_break ] andrew : let us pray . oh , god , whose beloved son did take little children into his arms and bless them . give us grace , we beseech thee , to entrust this child , hope , to thy never - failing care and love . and bring us all to thy heavenly kingdom , through thy son jesus christ our lord , who liveth and reigneth with thee and the holy spirit , one god , now and forever . amen .

[ scene_break ] langston : hey , come in . what are you doing here ? markko : well , i thought you might want a ride to the church . langston : you 're coming ? markko : well , i never , you know , lost anyone before , so -- i mean , i do n't know how these things work . i did n't think you needed an invitation , but if you do n't want me to go -- langston : of course i want you to go . markko , i need you .

[ scene_break ] starr : i thought it was your job as a minister to know this stuff . [ andrew chuckles ] andrew : well , i used to think that , too . but i think one of the biggest lessons that you learn in seminary is that you just ca n't give people the answers that they 're looking for . starr : then what 's the point ? andrew : the point is that you try to give them tools . tools that will help them find the answers they 're looking for inside themselves . starr : is n't that like sliding by ? andrew : well , i guess it kind of sounds that way , but , you know , my results are pretty good . i guess you 'll just have to trust me on that . starr : what about these tools ? andrew : you 've got a lot of friends , starr , a lot of family that love you . you 've got to open up to them , and you 've got to tell them how you 're feeling . starr : that 's it ? andrew : and if anybody tells you to move on or cheer up or to get over it , you tell them to get lost . starr : i can get behind that . andrew : but i think you might be surprised at how much -- how much comfort you can get when you share a loss like this with people who care , so do n't be afraid to lean on them . [ scene_break ] cole : yeah , this is like the fourth time that i 've ever worn a suit . three out of the four times , to a funeral for someone i loved . marty : yeah , i guess i 'd swear off suits , too . you scared ? cole : i do n't know how i 'm going to do it . you know , face everybody . marty : well , just keep your mind on a couple of things . do n't let anybody push you into talking if you 're not ready to . and do n't let anybody tell you that you 're going to have another baby one day and that 's going to make up for it , because nothing is going to replace the daughter that you lost . and just one more thing . there is no manual or time period for mourning . you do what you want to do . cole : you can still do it . marty : do what ? cole : make me feel better about things . cole : well , uh , i 'll see you downstairs ? we should probably leave in about half an hour or so . marty : i 'm sorry , cole . i ca n't go with you .

[ scene_break ] jessica : i just should have stayed in my room instead of having a meltdown out here . brody : if it 'll make you feel better , i could do my best tarzan . jessica : excuse me ? brody : you know , the tarzan yell ? i 've never done it without six or seven beers under my belt , but i can try . i mean , i 've got no shame . jessica : oh , i believe you . that 's okay . brody : nobody would probably notice around here , anyway . [ jessica chuckles ] jessica : yeah . i 'm sorry . i do n't know why this is hitting me so hard . i mean , i 've known about starr 's baby for a while now . brody : well , is it because you ca n't be with your own kids ? jessica : yeah , maybe . but i know they 're healthy and they 're happy and they 're with my family . they 're with tons of people that love them . brody : but it 's tough . it 's the worst thing there is , when a little kid dies . [ scene_break ] starr : how can i ask anything from everyone that i love ? i have screwed up their lives so much already . andrew : i do n't think they feel that way . starr : it 's true . and it all started when cole and i went to bed together . my dad went crazy . my mom kicked him out of the house and they got divorced . and then i found that i was pregnant . my dad could n't stand the fact that i was going to give my baby to marcie mcbain , so he did that sick thing to cole 's mother . did you hear about that ? he kept her in his house , cole not knowing that his mother was still alive . and then marcie , she lost another child and it is all because of me . how can i ask anything of any of them ? andrew : i do n't think you 'll have to ask . these are your friends . these are your family . they are asking already , `` how can we help starr ? what can we do ? `` tell them how you 're feeling , starr . they 'll be grateful . singer : running rings around the roses the children sing of the sadness life exposes in perfect rhyme in perfect time they tumble to the ground it 's just a game but just the same we all fall down we all fall down we all fall andrew : we 're gathered here in god 's healing embrace to remember hope manning mcbain and to deliver her into his grace . and it hurts to do this , but we take comfort in the knowledge that even death can not separate us from god 's good purpose for his children . and we ask him now for comfort . and we ask special consideration for starr and cole and marcie , who were so blessed to have loved hope during her brief stay with us on this earth . let us pray . [ scene_break ] jessica : when i first saw the article on starr 's baby 's funeral , it was like this wave of sadness just kind of swept over me . brody : well , sure , it would do that . you said she 's your cousin ? jessica : yeah . she was only 16 when she got pregnant , so she was going to have the baby and give it up for adoption to this really wonderful lady who ca n't have kids . and i feel really awful for them , but , i do n't know , i also feel like -- it 's like my own baby died , you know ? and i do n't understand why i feel that way .

at the overlook , tess persuades caleb to tell her what he was like before becoming a vampire . this is the first time he 's ever been asked that question . having been born into vampire royalty , he was always expected to fulfill his destiny , but he rebelled and had a huge falling - out with his father . he found love and peace with the first olivia , but his attempt to use his deceased mother 's wedding ring to protect her was his downfall . he went to retrieve the ring from his stepmother , unaware that she had been turned . she tricked him and sank her fangs into his neck . when he went back to olivia , he mistakenly thought they could work it out together . his attempt to turn her into a vampire resulted in her death .

[ cellphone rings ] adam : hello ? principal kegley . thank you for returning my call . i appreciate you reconsidering allowing connor to return to school . but connor 's been having a lot of issues , and his mother and i want to make sure that walnut grove is the right fit before we even consider putting him back in that environment . chelsea : we -- we want to give him the best chance to succeed . adam : we want to make sure we 're setting him up to succeed , so we were thinking that we 'd like to meet in person . okay , great . when ? chelsea : whenever . adam : whatever 's good for you is good for us , but we 'd like to do it as soon as possible . okay , great . we 'll see you then . chelsea : i did n't know you called principal kegley . adam : well , i just do n't want to throw connor back in the same situation and hope for the best . you know , if it 's not the right fit , we 'll find another school . sharon : why on earth was tanner at your apartment ? mariah : he wanted to convince tessa to go on tour with him . i walked in on their conversation . sharon : and ? mariah : it was awkward . sharon : i can imagine . mariah : i 'm surprised the news that he 's in genoa city has n't hit gossip sites . a pre - celebrity young - and - drunk marriage to an up - and - coming artist -- that 's the kind of story that hilary would have loved . sharon : well , people love gossip , you know ? it 's human nature . mariah : yeah . but i cringe to think about all the personal crap we covered on `` gc buzz . `` devon : [ chuckles ] mariah : devon . oh , my god , no . you know how grateful i was for my job at `` gc buzz `` and how much i loved hilary . devon : i know . it 's really fine . looking back , we could have done things a lot differently , and , you know , no one gets anywhere without making some mistakes , right ? mariah : you have a point there . sharon : amen to that . devon : [ chuckling ] yeah . uh , i only have a few minutes . you want to get a table ? mariah : yeah , let 's do it . devon : okay . thanks , sharon . sharon : um , i 'm gon na go out for a while . i 'll be back later this afternoon . mariah : so , i wanted to talk to you about the tanner watts deal . devon : his people reached out to me after he met with tessa , so we 're in preliminary negotiations right now , but , obviously , it does n't mean anything unless we know if tessa wants to do it . mariah : that 's what i wanted to talk to you about . phyllis : adam is manipulative , and he is so calculating . he is not a good guy . and to not see that , you 're either naive or you 're in denial or you believe he 'll change . nick : are we still talking about chelsea ? phyllis : you know what chelsea and i have in common ? neither of us is naive , just so you know . okay ? and you saw adam for who he was , and i tip my hat to you . nick : i 'm just trying to put the whole thing behind me . phyllis : thank you . no , i understand that . good , good . i wish them well . they 're perfect for each other . chelsea deserves adam . she does n't deserve you . you 're a great guy , and you 're kind and loving , and you 're a terrific partner , and i should know , because i 've had many incarnations of being a partner with you . nick : [ chuckles softly ] phyllis : restless style . do you remember restless style ? nick : yeah . phyllis : [ laughs ] that was an incredible time . that was a great time . and we put katy perry on the cover . no one even knew who she was . i think that she got the idea of that `` firework `` song from us . just sayin ' . nick : probably not ... [ both chuckle ] ... but it was fun indeed . phyllis : and i love what you 're doing now . you 're helping people and lifting them up , and you 're a very good role model for our daughter , so ... nick : thank you . phyllis : you 're welcome . you 're a good role model ... for all of your children . did i say something wrong ? nick : uh , no . you said all my children . uh ... it just reminded me that tomorrow is cassie 's birthday . phyllis : i am sorry . i 'm sorry . nick : no , it 's okay . i ... want to remember her . keeps her alive in my mind . phyllis : she adored you . nick : well , she was adored right back . phyllis : you were a rock for her . and then mariah came into the scene with sort of objectively funky circumstances , and ... you are a father figure to her . you 're incredible . mariah : tessa is n't sure she wants to commit to going on tour with tanner . devon : well , we need an answer from her pretty soon . mariah : like , yesterday . i know . i just want to give her space until she decides what to do . devon : is it gon na be too big of a sacrifice being away from each other for that long while she 's on the road , or ... ? mariah : that should n't factor in to her decision whatsoever ... speaking as her manager . devon : right . what about speaking as her girlfriend ? mariah : [ chuckles , groans ] it 's a little more complicated . devon : yeah . i know the distance would be hard , but it would n't be forever . and you guys are solid . she 's not wild or anything , and i do n't think you have to worry about her doing something crazy . mariah : like when she married tanner ? devon : what ? mariah : they were two fledgling musicians on the road for the first time . the mood struck , and ... voilà -- pop - up wedding , drunken , late - night , 24-hour chapel . devon : that 's what you were telling sharon about and how it would have been a good story for `` gc buzz . `` mariah : yeah . my thinking is , `` karma 's a bitch , `` and , uh , this is payback for me . i probably deserve it , but ... tessa doesn't . devon : i think you 're being a little hard on yourself , and it was a long time ago , right ? mariah : yeah . just seems like my past life , along with tessa 's , keep crashing into this one . i 'm sorry . i 'm yammering on , and i just wanted to update you on the situation . i know you 're busy , and i should get going as well . devon : okay . yeah . let 's -- let 's let 's talk about this soon , though . mariah : absolutely . devon : alright ? and , hey , mariah ... you and tessa -- you guys have something special , so i would n't worry about anything . mariah : hey . rey : hey . mariah : you 're back . that was fast . rey : yeah . my meeting turned out to be shorter than expected . i wanted to check back in with your mom . mariah : i think she just left a few minutes ago . rey : oh . does she seem okay to you ? mariah : yeah . why ? rey : nothing specific . i just -- i 've been swamped at work , and we have n't been spending quite as much time together . i want to make sure she 's alright and ... let her know that i 'm here for her . mariah : you are a good guy , rey . rey : hmm . mariah : you take care of my mom and you put in the work . rey : well , that 's what you do if you care about somebody . mariah : yeah . the mammogram we just did was inconclusive because of the density of tissue in your breast . the ultrasound will tell us if it 's a fluid - filled cyst or a solid tumor . chelsea : connor and i are lucky to have you in our lives and in our corner . adam : mm . no . i 'm the lucky one . chelsea : he depends on you . adam : well ... i am not going to let him down . i do love him with all my heart . chelsea : i know you do , and i feel terrible about all the boundaries and doubts i had . adam : i just wanted to be with my son . chelsea : maybe if i had let you spend time with him , you would n't have felt the need to -- to rush back to las vegas . adam : oh , that -- that was one of the biggest mistakes of my life . and it is never going to happen again . chelsea : i believe you . i admire ... how fiercely ... you protect the people you love ... and ... how fiercely you love . and ... [ sighs ] you 're the man i fell in love with . [ chuckles softly ] i 've missed you . adam : i have missed you , too . mariah : what the ... ? this is ... amazing , and ... you look ... so beautiful . tessa : this old thing ? do you like it ? mariah : i love . tessa : oh , i got your favorite . citrus notes and some vanilla . oh , and i got those sesame noodles you 're obsessed with . mariah : i 'm sorry . what -- what are we celebrating ? tessa : did you forget about your birthday tomorrow ? mariah : yeah . uh , yeah , i did , momentarily . i guess -- i guess i 've had so much going on , i did n't even really think about it . tessa : well , i remembered enough for both of us . i thought we should start celebrating tonight . mariah : this is so nice . but do n't you think that we should talk about the tour ? i mean , i feel like we 're avoiding the tanner watt - sized elephant in the room . oh . you 're going on tour with him . all done . the radiologist will be in soon . sharon : okay . thank you . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . tessa : yes . i 've decided to go on tour . but ... the only reason that i could make this decision is because the strength ... of our relationship . if i thought that this could break us , i would n't go , because i would n't do that to us . i know you 're hurt that i did n't tell you about tanner , but tanner was nothing but a blip on my journey to you . mariah : [ sighs softly ] tessa : you know how ... i knew that i was never in love with him ? because i did n't know what love was ... until i found you . and ... tanner and i got together because we were at the ... same place with the same career passions . we did n't have a big , dramatic breakup because we were both ready to move on . this is your decision , too . you 've encouraged me to say yes , but i need to know ... that everything 's gon na be okay before i make it official . pl - please say something . mariah : i want nothing but the best for you . tessa : uh ... okay . but ? [ chuckles ] i need to know that you believe everything i said about us , because ... if i went , i would just suck . i would n't be able to sing . it would be terrible . mariah : yeah , and that would be all my fault . tessa : 100 % all your fault . mariah : tessa ... this is a chance to make your dreams come true . of course i 'm okay with it . tessa : [ chuckles softly ] [ voice breaking ] i still do n't believe you . [ both chuckle ] mariah : [ sniffles ] as much as you want this ... i want it for you . so , yes . yes , you should do it . [ both chuckle softly ] [ sniffles ] and you know what ? we 're gon na be separated for a while . tessa : [ sniffles ] ohh . mariah : but i 'm not worried about it ... because i have a feeling that ... we share one heart . tessa : we 're nothing without the other . mariah : exactly . tessa : [ chuckles ] [ cellphone chimes ] [ knock on door ] dr. fletcher : hello . i 'm dr . fletcher . sharon : thank you for putting me in right away . dr. fletcher : not a problem . please , have a seat . when a mammogram was inconclusive like yours , we like to do an ultrasound as soon as possible . uh ... looks like you 've been diligent about getting yearly mammograms . sharon : yes , and i do regular self - examinations . dr. fletcher : well , that 's crucial to early detection . sharon : mm - hmm . obviously , i 'm anxious to find out if it 's a false alarm or if something more needs to be addressed . dr. fletcher : well , four out of five times , when a woman has an ultrasound following a mammogram , it 's good news . sharon : that 's what i 'm hoping for . dr. fletcher : so , um ... an ultrasound can determine whether a mass is solid or fluid . fluid indicates that it 's a cyst . solid may indicate a tumor . but many tumors are benign . the mass in your breast appears to be solid . my recommendation would be a biopsy , you know , after consulting ... chelsea : i 'm sorry . i just -- adam : chelsea , what is it ? chelsea : it 's everything . i mean , it 's everything i 've been holding inside since the day i found out that you were alive . i mean , when i found out that you had survived and i saw you again , i could n't allow myself to ... feel the same feelings i once did . i mean , that was ... too scary . it was too painful . i would n't allow myself to trust that you were really back ... or that we could ever have what we once had . adam : [ exhales sharply ] we can , okay ? okay ? i 'm real . this [ sniffles ] this is real . chelsea : i ca n't go through that again . adam , it would kill me . i ca n't go through that again , and i ca n't -- i ca n't put connor through that kind of suffering . i ca n't do it . adam : i know . i know . i know what 's at stake . chelsea : if this is what you want -- and i mean what you truly , truly want -- you have to mean it . you have to swear to me that i will never lose you again . nick : and i can not believe how long ago we lost cassie . it does n't feel like it . phyllis : yeah . a loss like that is timeless . [ exhales sharply ] nick : hey . thanks for , um ... talking about her with me . i ca n't think of many people i would do that with . phyllis : anytime . nick : so i guess i owe you something in return . how about this . phyllis : no , you do n't -- nick : how 'bout this ? how are things with you ? phyllis : what ? really ? you want to know ? nick : yeah . we 'll take a little break from me . what 's going on with you ? phyllis : uh ... i 'm -- i 'm blank . i do n't -- i mean , no one ever wants to know about me , so ... um ... uh , i 'm glad i cut ties with adam . nick : what 's going on on the work front ? you taking a break from your march to global domination ? phyllis : no . ' course not . i want the grand phoenix . and ... i 'm gon na get it . nick : so , nothing has changed ? phyllis : no , a lot has changed . i learn from my mistakes . in order to get what i want , i do n't have to ... drive the people i love out of my life . nick : what a novel approach . phyllis : yeah . i can be creative and just kind of slightly ... color outside the lines . nick : well , it might result in a pretty picture . phyllis : it 'll be easier on our daughter , as well . nick : seems like you two are getting along very well these days . phyllis : we are . we are . i 'm so glad . it means a lot to me . and i just ... of course want to be someone that she comes to and someone she feels she can confide in . i just ... do n't want to be repulsive [ chuckles ] to her , you know ? nick : sounds like a perfume -- `` slightly less repulsive . `` phyllis : do you ... think i 'm repulsive ? nick : no ! phyllis : yeah ? nick : no . okay . i 'm probably gon na regret this , but , uh , you know , i think you are ... extremely smart . and you 're beautiful ... and fun . phyllis : why would you regret saying that to me ? ! [ both laugh ] and i am fun . that 's for sure . i need to have more fun this year . that 's on my to - do list -- more fun . nick : oh , boy . i 've been around really fun phyllis ... and she 's dangerous . phyllis : exactly . chelsea : if this is a promise you ca n't make , then it 's okay . do n't lie to me . do n't lie to yourself . it would n't be fair to us . it would n't be fair to connor . adam : you know that i was ... never happier ... than i was with you ... before our lives blew up ... [ sniffles ] and we got torn apart . the first time that i looked you in the eyes after i got my memory back ... it was almost too much . i just did n't know how to handle it . chelsea : you asked me to move in here . [ both chuckle ] adam : well , it turns out my first instinct was right . chelsea : it was just too complicated then . adam : and i know -- i know why you shut down ... because i did the same thing . i just could not let myself get hurt like that again ... and hope for this moment ... right here . chelsea : this is our moment , and we ca n't underestimate it ... adam : [ chuckles softly ] chelsea : ... because it 's never been so risky and [ sighs ] the stakes have never been higher . tessa : it 's already gon na be hard enough tomorrow , and now you 're making it even harder . mariah : how am i making it harder ? tessa : who leaves the sexiest woman on the planet -- on her birthday ? ! i 'm a monster . mariah : mm , no . more like a - a beautiful alien . tessa : [ chuckles ] mariah : no , this was -- this was all the celebration i needed . tessa : well , it 's not over yet . mariah : hey , this is all i need . tessa : oh ! so , you do n't want your present ? mariah : oh . no , presents are nice . tessa : well , i guess it 's not your birthday until tomorrow , so maybe we should just wait . mariah : we should not wait . tessa : oh , or i could give it to you next christmas . mariah : no ! give it to me now ! tessa : okay . mariah : right now ! tessa : okay , bossy . mariah : [ laughs ] ooh . yass . tessa : [ chuckles ] mariah : it 's a diary . to write down how sad i 'm gon na be when you leave ? tessa : not quite . mariah : oh , my god . this is your diary . phyllis : thank god someone still finds me dangerous . i 'm taking that as a compliment . nick : be my guest . phyllis : oh . i thought everybody thought i went soft . nick : i know better . phyllis : that 's truly the nicest thing anyone has said to me in a really , really long time . thank you . i 'm full of surprises . [ chuckles ] adam : i 'm going to protect you with everything that i have , and we are going to build a life ... that we never thought was possible . chelsea : you really think we can ? adam : i know we can . and that 's a vow ... and a promise . tessa : taking your journal was ... one of the worst things i 've ever done . mariah : tessa , we are so far past that now . tessa : i know , but ... hear me out . the reason why it was such a violation is because i had n't earned the right to know your deepest thoughts ... to see your soul . that 's an extraordinary gift . mariah : and you 're giving me that gift now . tessa : i want you to know me like no one else has -- the good ... the bad ... the ugly ... everything i have to offer ... and everything i hoped no one would know . mariah : god . i did n't know it was possible to love you more , but i do . tessa : [ chuckles ] mariah : tessa , when you sing ... i feel like i am ... transported . when you sang that song on new year 's eve , i felt like we were just ... floating above everybody else , just you and me . tessa : well ... now every time every time i sing that song ... i 'll think of us ... on new year 's eve . mariah : and in this moment .

[ scene_break ] [ knock on door ] paul : come in . victor : hi . christine : hey , victor . victor : hello , christine . nice to see you . christine : you , too . victor : paul . paul : victor . victor : listen , would you mind giving me an update on delia abbott 's death , and are you any closer to arresting whoever caused it ? paul : we are sifting through the evidence , but my team and i do n't have time to stop the investigation to give updates . when we have something , you 'll hear about it . victor : well , i hope you do n't mind keeping me updated , you know ? because delia is part of my extended family . and , uh , while you 're at it , perhaps you can explain to me why so much time was wasted inspecting nikki 's car . christine : i ... think the chief will have to speak for himself . paul : [ sighs ] nikki 's car was caught on a surveillance cam near the same time and place as the incident . the department has since eliminated her car as the vehicle involved in the crime , so , uh , it 's -- it 's that simple . we have to dot our i 's , cross our t 's . nikki understood . christine : and that 's how investigations take place , how cases are built . now , every second we spend discussing it is a second we 're not devoting to finding delia 's killer . victor : but , listen . both of you know nikki . i mean , you know her well enough to know that she would stop for a squirrel if she thought she had hit it . you know her conscience would n't allow her to rest . [ scene_break ] nikki : but you said you 've been keeping this secret . have you or does dylan already know about our connection ? avery : nikki , he just found out his wife lied about their child , adam 's child . his entire vision of his future has been ripped away from him , and now i have information that could rip away his entire past . nikki : well , maybe it would be a comfort to him knowing that he 's not all alone in the world . avery : his parents were good people . they were kind and loving and honest , or at least he thought so . to find out now that they lied to him , that they did n't tell him he was adopted ... nikki : just so you know , it was his mother 's lie . from what i understand , she never told his father . avery : what ? ! okay , so -- so dylan 's mother kept this from both of them ? okay , wow . you know , the irony in this is that if chelsea had n't confessed , then ... connor would be growing up with the same lie that dylan did . nikki : open adoptions are very common these days . there was a time when they were n't . avery : dylan 's mom lied to her husband and her child . the era in which it happened , nikki , does n't matter to me . nikki : all right , well , if the lie is the worst part , maybe it 's best that dylan knows . avery : knowing -- has that helped summer -- the pain , the trauma ? nikki : well , that 's been very difficult . avery : yes . it turned her entire life upside down and everyone around her . do you want to inflict that kind of pain on dylan now ? jack : there is one irresistible force , one undeniable entity . abby : oh , you 're not talking about my dad , are you ? ashley : that 's funny , abby . he wishes . jack : i was talking about family -- this family , in particular . wow . this many abbotts in one room . ashley : with a new addition . we 're so happy that you 're here , especially now . summer : look , i know when things are hard , as much as you do n't want people around , it helps . it was like that when my mom was in the hospital . ashley : summer , i 'm so sorry about what happened to your mom . the last time i saw her , she was so completely committed to helping jack when he needed her . summer : yes . and he 's been there for her ever since . ashley : did you know that he 's always loved you , ever since you were a baby ? summer : yes . ashley : and clearly , phyllis and nick did a beautiful job of raising you . jack : okay , billy . you got her here , and now she 's saying nice things about the woman i love . [ laughter ] billy : she is . abby : mmm . have you smelled these muffins ? they smell so fresh . what , did you bake these on the plane ? ashley : i brought muffins ! [ laughter ] ashley : they 're for tomorrow morning -- the traditional abbott breakfast , of course . traci : good . i hope everybody can make it back , please . please say yes . abby : life always interferes , so why let it , huh ? why do n't we do breakfast right now ? i 'm starving . kyle : you just ate . abby : that was several minutes ago . i 'm hungry again . ashley : well , i certainly never ate on the plane . jack : you know , i am the wizard of omelets . a word of warning -- the youngest always gets orange juice . kyle : you want bacon or sausage ? jack : how about both ? we got a small army to feed here now . traci : that sounds like a great plan . [ indistinct conversations ] [ scene_break ] hilary : [ chuckles ] well , if it is n't the winters ' legal lapdog . if you have a restraining order or some nonsense libel suit , you can leave it in the trash on the way out . leslie : this is not legal business . this is personal , very personal . hilary : you are out of your league if you think you can intimidate me . leslie : that 's right where your mind goes , is n't it ? everyone out to tear someone else down . well , no . okay , i am here on a peaceful mission . hilary : oh . even better . you are out of your league . leslie : okay . you do n't want to hear from me . that 's obvious . but i bet you 'd give anything to hear from your mother just one more time . [ scene_break ] dylan : if you think i can help , name it , please . victoria : [ sighs ] it 's just that billy 's heart -- it 's -- it 's in a million pieces right now , you know ? and nothing i say or do , nothing anyone says seems to help . dylan : i 'm sure whatever you 're doing is helping , even if you ca n't see it . victoria : i know billy , and i would know if i was getting through to him . i mean , delia was his life . she was just this beautiful bubble of giggles and joy , and she was that way to everyone . everyone felt that way about her . i mean , even my father adored her . [ chuckles ] so , everybody 's in a lot of pain right now , and instead of billy being able to reach out to anyone , he 's just -- he 's shutting down , you know ? dylan : i -- i 'm not sure how i can help that . victoria : because i know you know loss . you know , i 'm sorry to bring that up , but i think that billy could really use a friend right now -- you know , somebody that 's not drowning in all this with him . i think that would really help him . i think that ... sometimes , family just -- just -- there 's nothing they can do , as much as they want to . [ scene_break ] nikki : you know , when dylan s born , i was so young . and the father ? believe me , he 's the kind of human being that should never be around children . it would be years before i 'd meet victor . avery : okay , why delve into this now ? nikki : actually , katherine set me on this path . avery : and if she had n't , would you have gone looking for the child ? nikki : well , she did , and i know -- i know that he 's here in town , and i know that his parents are gone . avery : you know , dylan had a wonderful childhood with parents he worshipped . what more could a biological parent ask for ? nikki : so , you think it 's wrong for me to want more ? avery : i think you 're being selfish . i think you 're thinking about what you want and your feelings , and for you to drag me into this -- it 's like -- it 's like you want me to -- to tell him this . you want me to tell him the news . nikki : that is absolutely not true ! that 's not why i told you . avery : okay , well , then why , when i came in here , the first thing you asked me is `` did you tell him ? `` see , i think you want me to tell him . i think you want to hang back and wait and watch and see if he goes to you , and how could i make a decision like that ? nikki : you just told me that you would be willing to be disbarred over this . so , that makes me think that you believe he should know the truth . avery : yes . there are reasons he ... maybe , should know the truth , nikki . because he 's all alone in the world , and he 's lost everything . he 's lost his parents , he 's lost his wife , his son , not to mention everything that he lost in the war . he 's in this world thinking he 's all alone , without family , but he has a family . he has you . [ scene_break ] victor : how are you going to go about finding this killer ? paul : well , what i can tell you is that we will keep delia 's parents posted , and they , in turn , will inform you . victor : uh - huh . now , you were recently appointed as d.a . , christine . does that mean that you would like a conviction to your credit ? christine : i want justice for this and every victim . i want to build a good , strong case that proves , beyond a reasonable doubt , that we have the right man or woman . until that happens , we 're not backing down . victor : well , let me ask you . how do we get some movement into this ? i mean , do i need to throw money around like jack abbott ? paul : i understand his impulse and devon 's , as well . but the fact that we have a $ 1 million reward has done nothing but bring all the wackos out of the woodwork . i mean , maybe we will get a tip we can use , but mostly , it 's just a lot of busy work for my guys that lead to nothing . so , please , keep your checkbook closed and let us do our jobs . victor : all right . you do what you have to , and so will i . paul : okay . um , do you mind me asking -- what does that mean ? victor : [ chuckles ] that means my movement is not going to be constricted by issues of reasonable doubt or burden of proof . you two have a nice day . paul : yeah . victor , please , do not take matters into your own hands . i ask ... victor : good to see you both . christine : [ chuckles ] [ door closes ] paul : ... you ... not ... [ scene_break ] traci : and your grandfather was the king of the table . summer : [ chuckles ] ashley : he was the most wonderful father in the world , an incredible patriarch . summer : yeah . i 've -- i 've heard a lot about john abbott . jack : oh , he would have gotten such a kick out of you . i 'm so sorry you did n't get to meet each other . summer : yeah . it 's probably best he did n't know about some of the stupid stuff i 've done . traci : [ chuckling ] oh , summer , you have no idea what dad 's children put him through . jack : she means me . ashley : no , i think she means all of us . traci : no . [ laughter ] ashley : he would have treated you just the way he treated all of us , right ? unconditional love . jack : more than anybody else , he had a way of knowing what was in our hearts and our minds . ashley : that 's true . jack : always find the right words to say to get us through , to make our day a little bit better . billy , if he was here right now , he 'd have the right words for you . i 'm sorry i do n't . ashley : he is here , jack . and he 's going to be with us tomorrow at the cemetery . billy : [ sighs ] i better get home . ashley : billy , please . traci : billy , we do n't have to talk about this if you do n't want to . but tomorrow 's going to happen . we all just want to help you be prepared for it as best as anyone can be . billy : right . yeah . i appreciate that . i love you . i 'll see you there tomorrow . jack : billy , i 'll go with you . ashley : no , jack . [ scene_break ] mason : yo . tell me that 's your ferrari outside . huh ? what 's up ? man , you take my advice and get a little something to enjoy ? devon : your advice ? 'cause i would listen to you ? you want some advice from me ? go to hell and take your partner , hilary , with you . mason : look , man . it was a big mistake getting caught up in hilary 's mess . i 'll be regretting that woman for a very long time . devon : yeah . you 're damn right . mason : you never picked the wrong woman , do all kind of stuff to make her happy , and then wish you had n't ? devon : if you 're asking if i 've ever been a big enough chump to deliberately try and ruin a family because some woman smiled at me , no . i ca n't say i 've done that . victor : is there a problem here ? devon : not at all . in fact , mason was just about to walk away . victor : you be careful with that fellow , okay ? i 've been meaning to talk to you . do you mind if i sit down ? devon : not at all . please . victor : you know , devon , what you did in offering that generous reward for information regarding delia 's death -- that 's very nice . that 's what great wealth is for -- to lead and to take charge . devon : well , thank you . i think so , too . victor : you have good instincts , but let me warn you , with great wealth comes enormous responsibility . devon : well , i know that katherine trusted me with it , and i trust her , too . victor : as do i . now , katherine was very deliberate in her will . if you read between the lines , you surmise her message . [ scene_break ] hilary : my mother ? you have the nerve to talk about my mother when you go to bed with the man who left her to die ? wow . leslie : okay , you know what ? i should have thought of this sooner . you loved her . she was a part of you , and these belong to you . hilary : what are these ? leslie : they 're letters from your mother to my father , probably his most precious belongings -- rose 's words , her handwriting . listen , neil has tried so many times to make me understand your pain , and frankly , i just -- i could n't because i have too much of my own . but here are your mother 's words . okay , maybe they 'll help , and maybe you will see that the way she died is not what you think . i truly am sorry for your loss .

[ chuckling ] jack : nicely done . traci : hi , there . we 're just , um , having a little family tradition , you know ? um , we 're trying to make sure that billy knows he 's got a whole family of people who want to help him get through this . jack : right now , it 's on abby 's mom , ashley . we 're all praying that she can get through to billy . [ scene_break ] billy : how long are you gon na sit there ? ashley : for as long as you need me . [ scene_break ] nikki : if you could just -- just work with me on this , because you know him so well . avery : what do you want me to do , nikki ? you want me to suss him out and report back to you his thoughts and his feelings and expose him and betray him so he makes the decision here ? ! nikki : no . i do n't want him to feel betrayed , certainly not for my sake , but -- but you know him so well . you know his past , you know his present , and if i could just know a little of what you know -- what kind of friends does he have ? what are his dreams ? what kind of books does he read ? i mean , anything . if -- avery : nikki , i fixed your will . the lifetime you lost with your son -- i ca n't get that back for you . [ scene_break ] dylan : of course i will be here for billy . the second he 's ready to talk , i 'll be ready to listen . and you 're right . i can relate . but you 're coming to me about billy . who 's looking out for you ? victoria : i was really lucky to have dee dee in my life . but right now , my job is just to be there for billy and johnny . dee dee had this wand . it was this light - up wand , and johnny would go crazy laughing anytime she 'd wave it around . he 's not gon na remember that . he 's not gon na remember her , and that kills me . [ sighs ] you know what ? i came here to get an oatmeal cookie for johnny , 'cause he loves them . they 're his favorite . they 're -- it 's no magic light - up wand , but -- dylan : cookies can be magic , i think . victoria : you think so ? dylan : yeah , yeah . but for me , it 's always been , you know , chocolate . victoria : oh , yeah ? me , too . i love chocolate . dylan : how about this -- a couple oatmeal for johnny and a couple of chocolate for you ? and i 'm glad you came for billy 's sake and for johnny 's , but this is your grief , too . and it 's okay to need someone to lean on yourself . [ scene_break ] victor : you know , devon , your grandmother katherine chancellor was a remarkable woman . and she handled her estate with great care . now , she wanted you to inherit the bulk of her wealth and give me the company . i think there was a reason . devon : you believe it 's a reason deeper than just me being her grandson and you a close friend ? victor : yeah . i think she wanted you to have the wealth and power and someone to guide you . devon : well , with all due respect , sir , i honestly do n't know what katherine was thinking . victor : i understand that . now , you re - read her will , and if you begin to surmise what she had hoped for you , if you have any questions , you contact me , okay ? devon : i will do that . thank you . victor : all right . you 're quite welcome . thank you . neil , how are you ? neil : fancy seeing you here , victor . victor : nice to see you . neil : yeah . victor : all right . you know how to get a hold of me . devon : i do . victor : nice to see you . everything okay ? neil : yeah . things are good . victor : great . uh - huh . devon : hey , dad . neil : hey , son . what was that ? victor working you ? devon : no . i - i think he just wanted to give me some advice . he said that he thinks it 's what katherine wanted . neil : ah . what katherine wanted . did he now ? devon : yeah . what 's the matter ? you do n't trust him ? neil : you know , i 've kind of told you this before . um , victor is an excellent businessman , but do n't get it twisted . he always , always has an agenda . you , me , anyone else not in his family will always be lowest on the priority list . now , your grandmother , she left you a fortune . she trusted me , intimately , to run her business . now , if you 're gon na be a player in this game , you 've got to keep a sharp eye out for people you can trust and people you ca n't . hey . you know i love you , kid . devon : i love you , too . neil : it 's gon na be fine . [ chuckles ] hey . hey , you . leslie : hey . neil : how did it go ? leslie : hilary or ann or whatever her name is , she is one ball of hate and misery . yeah , but she has rose 's letters now , so if we ca n't get through to her , maybe her mother can . neil : oh , boy . leslie : yeah . neil : there are some difficult truths in those pages . a hard thing to learn that your parents were n't exactly saints , right ? leslie : rose made her own choices . she made her own mistakes . all right ? it 's not your fault she drank , and it is not your fault she died . neil : okay , leslie . i really appreciate you trying . honestly , though , i think hilary is too far gone to let it go . [ scene_break ] billy : go home , ash . tell them i 'm fine . tell them they do n't have to worry about me . ashley : you want me to lie to the people that love you most , billy ? billy : how is that any more of a lie than what 's going on in that house ? we 're all just pretending that it 's okay . ashley : what happened to delia 's not okay . nobody thinks that it 's okay . billy : but we 're all pretending that we 're gon na get through it . i 'm pretending that we 're gon na get through it , and i just do n't want to pretend right now . ashley : you do n't have to pretend . look at me . just look at me . nobody knows better than me what this kind of grief can do to a person , how it squeezes every tear out of your eyes . it squeezes every breath out of you , and it squeezes every thought out of your head . more than once , that was my only reality .

[ sniffles ] but i failed her . [ voice breaking ] and i was n't there when she needed me . her entire life , whenever she was afraid ... [ crying ] she would hold my hand . she was scared , and i was n't there to hold her hand . ashley : i 'm so sorry . you know what ? she 's not scared now . and maybe for now or ... tomorrow and god knows for how long , billy , in a way , you can just let delia hold your hand so you wo n't be scared . billy : yeah . [ scene_break ] jack : i 'm not sure billy was ready for tonight . traci : jack , i do n't think anyone could ever be ready for the first days after you lose a child . but it does n't mean that we should ever stop trying . jack : well , omelets and muffins did n't work . i 'm not sure what 's next . summer : um , maybe this is dumb , but -- jack : there are no dumb ideas at this point . kyle : yeah . go on . just say it . abby : you ca n't be an abbott and not speak your mind . it 's physically impossible . [ chuckles ] summer : well , it 's not gon na change anything . i mean , it 's not gon na make billy stop hurting , but it 's something for us all to do together , a way for all of us abbotts to honor delia . [ scene_break ] nikki : wow . that was quick . victor : well ... come here , honey . [ smooches ] now ... i 've been thinking about you revisiting your will . is there something you 're not telling me ? nikki : darling , i feel fine . i am absolutely fine , i promise you . really , this -- this all goes back to losing katherine . i mean , one ca n't simply wait for their affairs to be in order , and i 've also been reminded that ... we have to cherish and protect the ones that we love while we can , like sweet little delia . [ scene_break ] paul : i just got the lab report back on the piece of plastic . no weather erosion , so it had n't been there long , so it definitely could have broken off at the time of impact . christine : it 's cinderella 's slipper . so , we have to find the head lamp that plastic fits into . paul : well , the good news is there is a partial serial number etched into the plastic . that should narrow down the search , so we are that much closer to finding justice for delia . [ scene_break ] dylan : when billy 's ready to talk , i 'm here . you let him know , and i 'll let him know , too . victoria : thanks . billy 's really lucky to have a friend like you , dylan . i 'm glad you 're here . dylan : same goes for you about talking , you know , if you need an ear . [ scene_break ] billy : you should go home , be with the family . ashley : i 'm fine here . [ scene_break ] jack : delia abbott , this family will hold you in our hearts forever . [ smooches ] [ next_on ] billy : ready to say goodbye to our little girl ? minister : we 're here today to celebrate and honor the life of delia abbott , a life cut tragically and unexpectedly short .
avery is upset that nikki told her that she is dylan 's biological mother and accuses nikki of wanting her to be the one to tell dylan the truth so that she does n't have to do it . nikki tells avery that is n't true but she does admit she wants her to tell her about dylan 's life and give her advice about when would be the best time to tell dylan the truth . avery tells nikki she ca n't give her back the years she lost with her son . mason breaks up with hilary when he realizes that all she cares about is getting revenge on neil and his family , and she does n't have any plans for the rest of her life . victor tells devon that he thinks katherine left him in charge of chancellor industries . she left most of her money to him because she wanted him ( victor ) to be a mentor to him . neil tells devon that now that he is a billionaire he needs to be very careful about the people he trusts .
<s>[INST] nikki : avery , i was n't expecting to see you quite so soon . avery : well , i did n't want this on my desk a second longer . here is your new will ... with the addition of dylan listed as a beneficiary , a man who has no idea you 're related , a man who has no idea you 're leaving him a fortune , a man who trusts me deeply , and now i have this life - changing secret that you essentially tricked me into keeping for you -- your lie , nikki . and i resent you making it mine . nikki : look , if you could just let me explain to you , i can -- victor : is this a business meeting ? what do you have there ? nikki : u - um . victor : your will ? well , i 'll be damned . what 's that about ? [ scene_break ] paul : our techs discovered some solid physical evidence from the site of delia 's hit and run . the lab 's on it now . christine : great . what is it -- tissue samples , paint chips ? paul : it 's a shard of plastic from a light . christine : oh , well , that 's not much to go on . paul : well , admittedly , it 's not , but , uh , chavez 's gut tells him that it is from the s.u.v . that hit delia . christine : okay , well , let 's hope it pans out fast . you know how i feel about hit - and - run cases . let 's just try and nail this guy and give the family a sliver of peace .

[ chuckles ] it reminded me of when we met in london . remember those days ? mason : we tore that city up . god , those were some good times . it 's different now , though . hilary : of course it is . mason : let 's go back to london , amsterdam -- look , anywhere but here . hilary : what ? no , i -- mason : we had fun . you had passion , fire . hilary : hey , i still have passion . mason : yes . but you have a different kind of fire , like it 's gon na burn you and everyone else up . hilary : when someone in your family is killed , you fight hard . and if you do n't , you might as well be dead , too . mason : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] ashley : i 'm so sorry , billy . billy : yeah , so ...

[ chuckling ] abby : oh , we kind of stayed after the whole pest - control issue was resolved at my place . traci : [ chuckles ] it felt right to be here before . but it feels even more right to be here now . this family always stands stronger together . jack : and we always will . [ scene_break ] neil : you ca n't let hilary get inside of that pretty little head of yours . leslie : well , i mean , it 's not like i opened the door and said , `` hey , come on in . `` she stormed in with a battering ram -- that damn blog . neil : mm . well , maybe she 's had enough . leslie : she 's just taking time to regroup , figure out her next move . hilary wants everybody to feel her pain , and the thing is i lost my mother to murder . i lost my father to a lie and then to prison and then to a bad heart . i know pain as well as anyone else , and for her to think she can just teach us all some sort of lesson , i -- neil : no , no . wait , wait . hold on . no . me -- she 's trying to teach me a lesson . leslie : you lost your wife ! okay , hilary needs to sit her behind down and stop thinking we need to learn something from her . neil : honey , i am so sorry that i dragged you into this . i have tried my best to make her understand . leslie : right . you did . and it did n't work . so , you know , maybe someone else can get through to her . neil : i appreciate you trying , but i do n't think hilary 's gon na listen to you . leslie : to me , no . but maybe someone else . [ scene_break ] mason : you know , you can laugh . i 've seen it . matter of fact , when 's the last time you did anything close to laughing ? hilary : some people just take life seriously . mason : you had a big life when i met you . now your life is this big . it 's all about neil winters and nothing else . and going after a pay day . you know , that i get , but get the bankroll to go places , do things . living well is the best revenge , right ? look , this here -- this suite and going after winters and his family -- is that really all you want to do with your life ? hilary : you miss my spark , huh ? my fire ? because i do n't go pub crawling with you anymore ? my spark is where it belongs . it has purpose -- avenging my mother 's death . when that is over , i will feel it in my heart . then we can talk about moving on . mason : because you 're in charge ? hilary : you did n't think that ... this was gon na change my mind ? oh , no . you could n't have . mason : not this . me . but you know , you 're so good and happy on your own . you got it . look , i 'm gone . hilary : yeah . i 've heard that before . mason : just look after you . i 'll look after me . hilary : what am i gon na do without you ? mason : everyone needs someone . by the time you figure that out , i 'll be long gone . [ scene_break ] nikki : victor , please . victor : why are you looking into your will ? are you consulting with avery ? nikki : yes . i was . victor : about what , though ? i mean ... is there something i should know about your health ? nikki : oh , no . darling , no . i 'm fine . victor : you sure ? nikki : i 'm positive . victor : well , sweetheart , why are you looking at your will ? nikki : it 's just basic details regarding my estate . it has n't been updated in years . i 've been meaning to do it since the wedding . victor : and if there 's something i should know ... ? nikki : then i would tell you . victor : you better , okay ? we 'll talk about this later . nikki : that 's fine . mm - hmm . victor : promise ? nikki : yes . victor : okay . nice to see you , avery . avery : mm - hmm . you , too . [ door closes ] nikki : i 'm sorry about that . avery : really ? for what ? having me stand here while you keep information from your husband -- information that nick and victoria have a brother and that brother is dylan ? nikki , how is this even possible ? nikki : i know . i 'm sorry . paul arrived , and i did n't even have a chance to explain it to you . avery : no . you explained precious little , but not before i was obligated under attorney / client privilege before you dropped this on me . nikki : avery , my intention was not to trick you . it -- it was to get your help . avery : okay , whatever your intention was , you just assumed that i would keep this plan of yours to deceive dylan and everyone else . i dropped off your document , and i came here to tell you i would rather be disbarred than lie about something like this to dylan . [ scene_break ] victoria : dylan . hi . dylan : victoria , i 'm -- i 'm sorry . i heard about delia . i mean , if there 's anything that i can do ... victoria : actually , there is . there is something you could do . [ scene_break ] [ knock on door ] paul : come in . victor : hi . christine : hey , victor . victor : hello , christine . nice to see you . christine : you , too . victor : paul . paul : victor . victor : listen , would you mind giving me an update on delia abbott 's death , and are you any closer to arresting whoever caused it ? paul : we are sifting through the evidence , but my team and i do n't have time to stop the investigation to give updates . when we have something , you 'll hear about it . victor : well , i hope you do n't mind keeping me updated , you know ? because delia is part of my extended family . and , uh , while you 're at it , perhaps you can explain to me why so much time was wasted inspecting nikki 's car . christine : i ... think the chief will have to speak for himself . paul : [ sighs ] nikki 's car was caught on a surveillance cam near the same time and place as the incident . the department has since eliminated her car as the vehicle involved in the crime , so , uh , it 's -- it 's that simple . we have to dot our i 's , cross our t 's . nikki understood . christine : and that 's how investigations take place , how cases are built . now , every second we spend discussing it is a second we 're not devoting to finding delia 's killer . victor : but , listen . both of you know nikki . i mean , you know her well enough to know that she would stop for a squirrel if she thought she had hit it . you know her conscience would n't allow her to rest . [ scene_break ] nikki : but you said you 've been keeping this secret . have you or does dylan already know about our connection ? avery : nikki , he just found out his wife lied about their child , adam 's child . his entire vision of his future has been ripped away from him , and now i have information that could rip away his entire past . nikki : well , maybe it would be a comfort to him knowing that he 's not all alone in the world . avery : his parents were good people . they were kind and loving and honest , or at least he thought so . to find out now that they lied to him , that they did n't tell him he was adopted ... nikki : just so you know , it was his mother 's lie . from what i understand , she never told his father . avery : what ? ! okay , so -- so dylan 's mother kept this from both of them ? okay , wow . you know , the irony in this is that if chelsea had n't confessed , then ... connor would be growing up with the same lie that dylan did . nikki : open adoptions are very common these days . there was a time when they were n't . avery : dylan 's mom lied to her husband and her child . the era in which it happened , nikki , does n't matter to me . nikki : all right , well , if the lie is the worst part , maybe it 's best that dylan knows . avery : knowing -- has that helped summer -- the pain , the trauma ? nikki : well , that 's been very difficult . avery : yes . it turned her entire life upside down and everyone around her . do you want to inflict that kind of pain on dylan now ? jack : there is one irresistible force , one undeniable entity . abby : oh , you 're not talking about my dad , are you ? ashley : that 's funny , abby . he wishes . jack : i was talking about family -- this family , in particular . wow . this many abbotts in one room . ashley : with a new addition . we 're so happy that you 're here , especially now . summer : look , i know when things are hard , as much as you do n't want people around , it helps . it was like that when my mom was in the hospital . ashley : summer , i 'm so sorry about what happened to your mom . the last time i saw her , she was so completely committed to helping jack when he needed her . summer : yes . and he 's been there for her ever since . ashley : did you know that he 's always loved you , ever since you were a baby ? summer : yes . ashley : and clearly , phyllis and nick did a beautiful job of raising you . jack : okay , billy . you got her here , and now she 's saying nice things about the woman i love . [ laughter ] billy : she is . abby : mmm . have you smelled these muffins ? they smell so fresh . what , did you bake these on the plane ? ashley : i brought muffins ! [ laughter ] ashley : they 're for tomorrow morning -- the traditional abbott breakfast , of course . traci : good . i hope everybody can make it back , please . please say yes . abby : life always interferes , so why let it , huh ? why do n't we do breakfast right now ? i 'm starving . kyle : you just ate . abby : that was several minutes ago . i 'm hungry again . ashley : well , i certainly never ate on the plane . jack : you know , i am the wizard of omelets . a word of warning -- the youngest always gets orange juice . kyle : you want bacon or sausage ? jack : how about both ? we got a small army to feed here now . traci : that sounds like a great plan . [ indistinct conversations ] [ scene_break ] hilary : [ chuckles ] well , if it is n't the winters ' legal lapdog . if you have a restraining order or some nonsense libel suit , you can leave it in the trash on the way out . leslie : this is not legal business . this is personal , very personal . hilary : you are out of your league if you think you can intimidate me . leslie : that 's right where your mind goes , is n't it ? everyone out to tear someone else down . well , no . okay , i am here on a peaceful mission . hilary : oh . even better . you are out of your league . leslie : okay . you do n't want to hear from me . that 's obvious . but i bet you 'd give anything to hear from your mother just one more time . [ scene_break ] dylan : if you think i can help , name it , please . victoria : [ sighs ] it 's just that billy 's heart -- it 's -- it 's in a million pieces right now , you know ? and nothing i say or do , nothing anyone says seems to help . dylan : i 'm sure whatever you 're doing is helping , even if you ca n't see it . victoria : i know billy , and i would know if i was getting through to him . i mean , delia was his life . she was just this beautiful bubble of giggles and joy , and she was that way to everyone . everyone felt that way about her . i mean , even my father adored her . [ chuckles ] so , everybody 's in a lot of pain right now , and instead of billy being able to reach out to anyone , he 's just -- he 's shutting down , you know ? dylan : i -- i 'm not sure how i can help that . victoria : because i know you know loss . you know , i 'm sorry to bring that up , but i think that billy could really use a friend right now -- you know , somebody that 's not drowning in all this with him . i think that would really help him . i think that ... sometimes , family just -- just -- there 's nothing they can do , as much as they want to . [ scene_break ] nikki : you know , when dylan s born , i was so young . and the father ? believe me , he 's the kind of human being that should never be around children . it would be years before i 'd meet victor . avery : okay , why delve into this now ? nikki : actually , katherine set me on this path . avery : and if she had n't , would you have gone looking for the child ? nikki : well , she did , and i know -- i know that he 's here in town , and i know that his parents are gone . avery : you know , dylan had a wonderful childhood with parents he worshipped . what more could a biological parent ask for ? nikki : so , you think it 's wrong for me to want more ? avery : i think you 're being selfish . i think you 're thinking about what you want and your feelings , and for you to drag me into this -- it 's like -- it 's like you want me to -- to tell him this . you want me to tell him the news . nikki : that is absolutely not true ! that 's not why i told you . avery : okay , well , then why , when i came in here , the first thing you asked me is `` did you tell him ? `` see , i think you want me to tell him . i think you want to hang back and wait and watch and see if he goes to you , and how could i make a decision like that ? nikki : you just told me that you would be willing to be disbarred over this . so , that makes me think that you believe he should know the truth . avery : yes . there are reasons he ... maybe , should know the truth , nikki . because he 's all alone in the world , and he 's lost everything . he 's lost his parents , he 's lost his wife , his son , not to mention everything that he lost in the war . he 's in this world thinking he 's all alone , without family , but he has a family . he has you . [ scene_break ] victor : how are you going to go about finding this killer ? paul : well , what i can tell you is that we will keep delia 's parents posted , and they , in turn , will inform you . victor : uh - huh . now , you were recently appointed as d.a . , christine . does that mean that you would like a conviction to your credit ? christine : i want justice for this and every victim . i want to build a good , strong case that proves , beyond a reasonable doubt , that we have the right man or woman . until that happens , we 're not backing down . victor : well , let me ask you . how do we get some movement into this ? i mean , do i need to throw money around like jack abbott ? paul : i understand his impulse and devon 's , as well . but the fact that we have a $ 1 million reward has done nothing but bring all the wackos out of the woodwork . i mean , maybe we will get a tip we can use , but mostly , it 's just a lot of busy work for my guys that lead to nothing . so , please , keep your checkbook closed and let us do our jobs . victor : all right . you do what you have to , and so will i . paul : okay . um , do you mind me asking -- what does that mean ? victor : [ chuckles ] that means my movement is not going to be constricted by issues of reasonable doubt or burden of proof . you two have a nice day . paul : yeah . victor , please , do not take matters into your own hands . i ask ... victor : good to see you both . christine : [ chuckles ] [ door closes ] paul : ... you ... not ... [ scene_break ] traci : and your grandfather was the king of the table . summer : [ chuckles ] ashley : he was the most wonderful father in the world , an incredible patriarch . summer : yeah . i 've -- i 've heard a lot about john abbott . jack : oh , he would have gotten such a kick out of you . i 'm so sorry you did n't get to meet each other . summer : yeah . it 's probably best he did n't know about some of the stupid stuff i 've done . traci : [ chuckling ] oh , summer , you have no idea what dad 's children put him through . jack : she means me . ashley : no , i think she means all of us . traci : no . [ laughter ] ashley : he would have treated you just the way he treated all of us , right ? unconditional love . jack : more than anybody else , he had a way of knowing what was in our hearts and our minds . ashley : that 's true . jack : always find the right words to say to get us through , to make our day a little bit better . billy , if he was here right now , he 'd have the right words for you . i 'm sorry i do n't . ashley : he is here , jack . and he 's going to be with us tomorrow at the cemetery . billy : [ sighs ] i better get home . ashley : billy , please . traci : billy , we do n't have to talk about this if you do n't want to . but tomorrow 's going to happen . we all just want to help you be prepared for it as best as anyone can be . billy : right . yeah . i appreciate that . i love you . i 'll see you there tomorrow . jack : billy , i 'll go with you . ashley : no , jack . [ scene_break ] mason : yo . tell me that 's your ferrari outside . huh ? what 's up ? man , you take my advice and get a little something to enjoy ? devon : your advice ? 'cause i would listen to you ? you want some advice from me ? go to hell and take your partner , hilary , with you . mason : look , man . it was a big mistake getting caught up in hilary 's mess . i 'll be regretting that woman for a very long time . devon : yeah . you 're damn right . mason : you never picked the wrong woman , do all kind of stuff to make her happy , and then wish you had n't ? devon : if you 're asking if i 've ever been a big enough chump to deliberately try and ruin a family because some woman smiled at me , no . i ca n't say i 've done that . victor : is there a problem here ? devon : not at all . in fact , mason was just about to walk away . victor : you be careful with that fellow , okay ? i 've been meaning to talk to you . do you mind if i sit down ? devon : not at all . please . victor : you know , devon , what you did in offering that generous reward for information regarding delia 's death -- that 's very nice . that 's what great wealth is for -- to lead and to take charge . devon : well , thank you . i think so , too . victor : you have good instincts , but let me warn you , with great wealth comes enormous responsibility . devon : well , i know that katherine trusted me with it , and i trust her , too . victor : as do i . now , katherine was very deliberate in her will . if you read between the lines , you surmise her message . [ scene_break ] hilary : my mother ? you have the nerve to talk about my mother when you go to bed with the man who left her to die ? wow . leslie : okay , you know what ? i should have thought of this sooner . you loved her . she was a part of you , and these belong to you . hilary : what are these ? leslie : they 're letters from your mother to my father , probably his most precious belongings -- rose 's words , her handwriting . listen , neil has tried so many times to make me understand your pain , and frankly , i just -- i could n't because i have too much of my own . but here are your mother 's words . okay , maybe they 'll help , and maybe you will see that the way she died is not what you think . i truly am sorry for your loss . [ scene_break ] tyler : i just wanted to check on you . but , you know , if your mom 's visiting , i can -- abby : no , no . um ... well , things are pretty miserable around here . you probably do n't want to deal with this . tyler : no . if you want me to stay , i 'm here . you know that i am wherever you need me to be . abby : stay . please . here . tyler : hello . or , uh , should i say , `` good morning `` ? [ chuckling ] jack : nicely done . traci : hi , there . we 're just , um , having a little family tradition , you know ? um , we 're trying to make sure that billy knows he 's got a whole family of people who want to help him get through this . jack : right now , it 's on abby 's mom , ashley . we 're all praying that she can get through to billy . [ scene_break ] billy : how long are you gon na sit there ? ashley : for as long as you need me . [ scene_break ] nikki : if you could just -- just work with me on this , because you know him so well . avery : what do you want me to do , nikki ? you want me to suss him out and report back to you his thoughts and his feelings and expose him and betray him so he makes the decision here ? ! nikki : no . i do n't want him to feel betrayed , certainly not for my sake , but -- but you know him so well . you know his past , you know his present , and if i could just know a little of what you know -- what kind of friends does he have ? what are his dreams ? what kind of books does he read ? i mean , anything . if -- avery : nikki , i fixed your will . the lifetime you lost with your son -- i ca n't get that back for you . [ scene_break ] dylan : of course i will be here for billy . the second he 's ready to talk , i 'll be ready to listen . and you 're right . i can relate . but you 're coming to me about billy . who 's looking out for you ? victoria : i was really lucky to have dee dee in my life . but right now , my job is just to be there for billy and johnny . dee dee had this wand . it was this light - up wand , and johnny would go crazy laughing anytime she 'd wave it around . he 's not gon na remember that . he 's not gon na remember her , and that kills me . [ sighs ] you know what ? i came here to get an oatmeal cookie for johnny , 'cause he loves them . they 're his favorite . they 're -- it 's no magic light - up wand , but -- dylan : cookies can be magic , i think . victoria : you think so ? dylan : yeah , yeah . but for me , it 's always been , you know , chocolate . victoria : oh , yeah ? me , too . i love chocolate . dylan : how about this -- a couple oatmeal for johnny and a couple of chocolate for you ? and i 'm glad you came for billy 's sake and for johnny 's , but this is your grief , too . and it 's okay to need someone to lean on yourself . [ scene_break ] victor : you know , devon , your grandmother katherine chancellor was a remarkable woman . and she handled her estate with great care . now , she wanted you to inherit the bulk of her wealth and give me the company . i think there was a reason . devon : you believe it 's a reason deeper than just me being her grandson and you a close friend ? victor : yeah . i think she wanted you to have the wealth and power and someone to guide you . devon : well , with all due respect , sir , i honestly do n't know what katherine was thinking . victor : i understand that . now , you re - read her will , and if you begin to surmise what she had hoped for you , if you have any questions , you contact me , okay ? devon : i will do that . thank you . victor : all right . you 're quite welcome . thank you . neil , how are you ? neil : fancy seeing you here , victor . victor : nice to see you . neil : yeah . victor : all right . you know how to get a hold of me . devon : i do . victor : nice to see you . everything okay ? neil : yeah . things are good . victor : great . uh - huh . devon : hey , dad . neil : hey , son . what was that ? victor working you ? devon : no . i - i think he just wanted to give me some advice . he said that he thinks it 's what katherine wanted . neil : ah . what katherine wanted . did he now ? devon : yeah . what 's the matter ? you do n't trust him ? neil : you know , i 've kind of told you this before . um , victor is an excellent businessman , but do n't get it twisted . he always , always has an agenda . you , me , anyone else not in his family will always be lowest on the priority list . now , your grandmother , she left you a fortune . she trusted me , intimately , to run her business . now , if you 're gon na be a player in this game , you 've got to keep a sharp eye out for people you can trust and people you ca n't . hey . you know i love you , kid . devon : i love you , too . neil : it 's gon na be fine . [ chuckles ] hey . hey , you . leslie : hey . neil : how did it go ? leslie : hilary or ann or whatever her name is , she is one ball of hate and misery . yeah , but she has rose 's letters now , so if we ca n't get through to her , maybe her mother can . neil : oh , boy . leslie : yeah . neil : there are some difficult truths in those pages . a hard thing to learn that your parents were n't exactly saints , right ? leslie : rose made her own choices . she made her own mistakes . all right ? it 's not your fault she drank , and it is not your fault she died . neil : okay , leslie . i really appreciate you trying . honestly , though , i think hilary is too far gone to let it go .

yes . y - yes , but i hope that -- listen , i love ... having this . i 'm so grateful to be here with you and the girls and -- and to share this time . i mean , i -- i love reading them bedtime stories and then getting to be there when they wake up in the morning . i mean , all of it , all of it . i -- i love it . i love kelly , and i love you . and that 's not gon na change . steffy : it 's fine . i 'm fine . you chose hope . liam : i -- steffy : well , you did . liam : [ sighs ] steffy : you want to save her . you always have . liam : uh ... yeah , you 're r -- i mean , you 're right . steffy : yeah . liam : you got me . steffy : yeah ?

have some fun . family 's so important to me , and i want to show zoe what makes ours so special . zoe : well , that sounds great . i 'd be honored . douglas : you want to be with zoe , not mommy ? thomas : no . no , no , no . of course not . i want everyone to be there , especially you and mommy . okay ? it 's time to put all the conflict and the mistrust behind us . right ? we need to really celebrate each other and finally all come together . now , zoe and i , we made mistakes in the past , okay ? but we 're moving forward , moving past them . right ? and , douglas , now look , i really need you there . it would n't be a family dinner without you . you 've got to be there . you 're the key to this whole thing . douglas : mommy will be there , too ? thomas : yeah . right by your side . okay ? i mean , look , i already talked to my dad , and this -- this is what my family wants from me . they want me moving forward in a positive direction , really motivated . this has been a really long road for all of us . but we 're finally getting back on track , and that 's such an amazing thing , and -- and i think , after tonight , everything we hope for , it 'll soon come true . . .

ohh , i 'm sorry . but you missed out . nicole : oh , i did -- i missed out , huh ? daniel : yes , you did . yeah , i 'm sorry . nicole : well , at least let me dry you off . eric : i figured out a while back that it was better and easier for both of us if i just did n't see nicole . jennifer : now , do n't you think that 's kind of hard to manage sometimes ? eric : actually , it 's been pretty easy . i mean , except for last night . that was an exception . jennifer : then why are you still so unsettled ? eric : it 's daniel . i mean , is this ... too weird to talk about ? jennifer : no , it 's really not , i 'm -- i 'm really fine . eric : things were a little tense with daniel when this thing kind of broke out at the club . it 's just -- he 's been a good friend . i owe him a lot . but it 's really hard to see how we do n't end up on opposite sides in all of this . jennifer : eric , i 'm -- i 'm sorry , daniel and i -- we -- we made a lot of mistakes when we were together . and nobody is perfect . but he is a great friend . and that friendship is worth whatever trouble comes with it , so i really hope the two of you can figure it out . aiden : uh , i -- i appreciate the offer . i do , it 's just the whole thing is starting to feel like a big mistake , and i think adding more people to the mix would just , you know . hope : well then , why are you taking chase ? aiden : i mean , you 've seen how he reacted to selling the house . it 's the one thing he asked . he wanted to -- to see the -- the house . the place where his mom died . oh , gosh , i mean ... what does a kid do with that ? why do you want to go back to the place of your -- your worst nightmare ? hope : maybe he needs to end the chapter in his way . as much as you ever can when you lose a parent . aiden : i just do n't know what it 's gon na do to him . hope : aiden , listen to me . you 're a wonderful father . i 've seen how amazing you are with him . whatever comes , i know you 'll do right by him . maybe you could use some back up , what do you say ? hmm ? ciara 's wonderful with chase . and , uh , i 'm not too shabby with you , right ? aiden : i mean , it 's just gon na be for a few hours . hope : i do n't care about that . it wo n't be out of the way for us and even if it were , it would n't matter . we 're gon na be there for you . the both of you , and help you get through this . aiden : wow . it 's not mystery where ciara gets it . i never want to face you in court either . hope : good . is that a yes ? yes ? aiden : oh , you are amazing . but look , it 's -- it 's truly just gon na be for a few hours . okay , but ... if you and ciara -- hope : we 'd love to . yes , we would . victor : i 'm not interested in that sort of day to day detail , rafe . rafe : so someone muscles in on your trucking business and then charges you an extra 20 percent to rub your nose in it , and you do n't care ? victor : you heard what i said . rafe : uh , hmm . okay . so either you want to get shaken down , or you just do n't want to talk to me about it . look , victor . there are ways to handle this that are n't , um ... victor : are n't what ? messy ? rafe : you do n't have to get your hands dirty . but if you need help -- victor : then i 'll call you . you got the job that you wanted from me , rafe . take care of that . let me worry about my other interests . clyde : i 'm working on getting a lawyer for you now . aiden jennings office says he 's on his way out of town , so we got ta find -- ben : no , you do n't have to do that . bailing me out was enough . clyde : hey , you got ta walk away from this clean . all right ? i 'm not gon na sit here and let you get a criminal record . it just closes too many doors in life . abigail : ben , you have to listen to him . clyde : first , we got ta get over to tbd and get your stuff . ben : okay , i can do that . clyde : well i 'm coming with you . from now on , you ca n't afford to run into chad dimera alone . jordan : what ben did was wrong . it was off the charts wrong . chad : but ? jordan : look , do i want to see my brother go to jail ? no , okay . but i 'm sure he 's really sorry . chad : not as sorry as he 's gon na be . two cops were witnesses , and ben has a history . he ca n't control himself , jordan , and people who ca n't control themselves , they need a -- they need to learn a lesson . jordan : okay , you 're right . listen , listen -- you 're right . okay ? and i am sure this is a big wake up call to him right now . he needs to figure out a way to get control of his anger , and i 'm gon na talk to him about that . chad : [ laughs ] that 'll do it . jordan : whatever you want . okay , whatever you think will help . chad : you would do anything ? would n't you ? you would do absolutely anything to keep me from pressing charges . you 'd sleep with me right here and now , would n't you ? you were gon na hit me , were n't you ? jordan : no . chad : i guess that temper runs in the family . jordan : why are you doing this ? i do n't understand why you 're doing -- chad : because i 'm not gon na be used , jordan . not by you and not by anybody else . jordan : i am not trying -- chad : no , your brother 's gon na pay for what he did . you know the way out . clyde : chad 's not in . they do n't expect him for awhile , if at all . ben : all right . thanks . i 'll go get my stuff and head home . clyde : all right , i 'll wait here . ben : no , you do n't have to . i can handle this on my own . clyde : that 's what family 's for , all right ? they look out for each other . just like you and jordan did for each other all those years . you fight for family . hey . that 's what happened , is n't it ? chad dimera said something about your family . ben : i 'm not gon na discuss this with you or anyone else . clyde : all right . i respect that , you 're a good man . go get your things , i 'll give you a ride home .

[ sobbing ] [ scene_break ] philip : belle , i 'm sorry . was i hurting you ? belle : no . philip : well , then , the only reason i can think that you wanted me to stop is that you changed your mind . you do n't want me to make love to you after all . philip : belle , i asked you so many times if you were ready . belle , i love you , and i want you , but i ca n't hold you anymore in my arms just to comfort you . that 's too hard . i 'm not going to make a bunch of empty promises to you , either , because i truly believe that we have a future together . but if you 're just going to sit around pining after shawn hoping for some kind of miracle , belle , i ca n't do this anymore . belle : this is n't about shawn and me anymore . philip , you 're right . it 's over . this is about us now . you have been there for me . you have been so much more understanding than i deserve , and it 's just not fair to make you wait anymore , and i wo n't . philip , you have been in my life for as long as i can remember . i could n't imagine it any other way . this is right . philip : thank you . belle : make love to me , philip . i really mean it this time . make love to me . philip : you told me you were sure . you asked me to make love to you , and now you change your mind ... again .

[ scene_break ] phyllis : i was right . you did n't come her for sharon 's trial . avery : oh , why did i come here , phyllis ? phyllis : you came here for me , to deliver your own brand of justice because i left ... avery : ( scoffs ) phyllis : that freak show that was our home . avery : okay , you may tell yourself that ... phyllis : i left that betrayal . avery : to rationalize leaving us , but that as not how it went down , and you know it . phyllis : ( sighs ) oh , you are so brainwashed by them . i ... ( sighs ) are you -- are you telling me ... that you believe him ? are you telling me that you believe he 's innocent ? avery : he -- he was innocent . phyllis : and you do n't believe that she turned a blind eye ? avery : there is no way that daddy bilked those people out of their life savings . phyllis : oh , my god . yes , he did . yes , he did , avery , amongst many other things . and those people are innocent , vulnerable people who believe that they were gon na live the rest of their life in comfort and security in that facility , and because of our father , they were not allowed to . avery : dad was a scapegoat . it was the facility . they 're to blame . phyllis : oh , i can not believe you . no , the evidence was overwhelming . avery : the evidence was circumstantial . phyllis : i - i - i ca n't talk to you about this . avery : no , no , no . phyllis : i can ' talk about this . avery : because -- that 's why . because you turned your back on him when he needed you the most , making it look all the worse . his own daughter did n't believe him . phyllis : of course i did n't believe him , 'cause he 's crazy . avery : you know what ? i - i find it fascinating that you are so deeply ashamed that our father was accused of theft , yet you go and you steal photographs . i wonder how your kids are gon na feel when they find out what you 've done . phyllis : a - a - all right . you 're crossing the line . you 're crossing the line . you know that ? avery : i 've made a career out of it , a good career . phyllis : yeah , you have , sweetie . you 've made a huge career out of it , have n't you ? a huge career , but in your entire career , you have never , ever ... ( voice breaks ) come across someone like me . you have never . ( normal voice ) you want to go after me ? fine . bring it . i do n't really care . i can take it . but if you go after my children , i -- look at me -- it is war . [ scene_break ] genevieve : so do n't get me wrong . i am excited about the attention that we 'll receive from the benefit . i just do n't like the idea of sharing it with beauty of nature . jack : well , i mean , that is the point of the whole thing . the cause is bigger than the rivalry . genevieve : mm , well , maybe i can come up with some sort of a subtle way that we could upstage them . jack : well , does it maybe help if you think of it as just another division of jabot ? genevieve : ( chuckles ) jack : hopefully with a little time , that 's exactly what beauty of nature is going to be . genevieve : once you take them over ? [ scene_break ] adam : so ... what 'd dad have to say ? victoria : he said to suck it up and find a way to deal with you . adam : look , i do n't think that , uh , anyone is under any illusion that you and i are gon na become bffs , but if you give me a chance , give me a little time , you 'll see that i 'll make a valuable contribution here . victoria : hmm . possibly , if we had any babies that needed kidnapping or deaths that needed faking . but as it is , we do n't have use for someone with your skills around here . adam : touché . but dad disagrees with you . victoria : well , dad is out of his mind for letting you back in the building , let alone the company . adam : mm . you should tell him that in those words . better yet , you could resign in protest . victoria : no , i 'm not going anywhere . i 'm gon na be right here looking over your shoulder , watching every move that you make . say hello to your new shadow . [ scene_break ] ashley : obviously i do n't think that you killed diane . it 's just that this investigation is ragging on and on and on , and it 's casting a pall on what should be a wonderful time , and i 'm just frustrated . tucker : okay . ashley : i 'm sorry . i 'm so sorry . that was stupid , and i should n't have vent -- tucker : no , no , no , no . ashley : i should n't have brought it up . tucker : do n't even mention it . ashley : ( sighs ) diane has already created so much turmoil in my life she 's not gon na ruin my wedding day . [ scene_break ] ronan : what are you getting at ? nick : it 's hardly ... professional , you letting a reporter get this involved in a murder investigation , especially when she 's supposed to be a suspect . ronan : what if the time i spend with phyllis has nothing to do with the investigation ? what if i just enjoy her company ? nick : am i supposed to believe there 's something going on between you two ? ronan : if there were , how would that make you feel ? jealous ? angry ? yeah . anger . but obviously , not as much anger as you felt towards diane . right ? i do n't know . maybe you just like to beat up on defenseless women . okay . i 'm gon na be keeping an eye on you , nick .

phyllis is hurt when she finds nick in avery 's room at the athletic club . he admits to her he slept with avery but says it just happened -- he did n't intend to hurt her . phyllis tells nick all the women that hate her always sleep with him , and he slept with avery because he was angry with her . phyllis thinks nick does n't protect her in any situation . she came to tell him ronan got a call from someone who played his argument with diane the night she died . when ronan questions him , nick does n't say anything about the recording but wonders why ronan and phyllis are spending so much time together . ronan admits he enjoys phyllis 's company . phyllis is angry when she learns that avery will be staying in town because she has another case . phyllis tells avery that she came to town to dispense her own kind of justice because she is still angry with her because she left home . avery and phyllis argue because phyllis thinks her father was responsible for stealing money from some people who expected to spend their retirement at a facility and now they ca n't because of their father . avery thinks the facility used their father as a scapegoat , and he was n't to blame for the situation . phyllis warns avery not to come after her children or she will have a war on her hands . avery calls daisy to tell her that she will do whatever it takes to reunite her with her daughter just like she reunited sharon with faith .
<s>[INST] avery : that was a very interesting negotiating style you have , mr. newman . nick : ( sighs ) ( sighs ) well , the first rule of a successful negotiation is to only accept a creative outcome . avery : then by that standard , i 'd say we were very successful . no one could have predicted this outcome . nick : yeah .

( sighs ) are you -- are you telling me ... that you believe him ? are you telling me that you believe he 's innocent ? avery : he -- he was innocent . phyllis : and you do n't believe that she turned a blind eye ? avery : there is no way that daddy bilked those people out of their life savings . phyllis : oh , my god . yes , he did . yes , he did , avery , amongst many other things . and those people are innocent , vulnerable people who believe that they were gon na live the rest of their life in comfort and security in that facility , and because of our father , they were not allowed to . avery : dad was a scapegoat . it was the facility . they 're to blame . phyllis : oh , i can not believe you . no , the evidence was overwhelming . avery : the evidence was circumstantial . phyllis : i - i - i ca n't talk to you about this . avery : no , no , no . phyllis : i can ' talk about this . avery : because -- that 's why . because you turned your back on him when he needed you the most , making it look all the worse . his own daughter did n't believe him . phyllis : of course i did n't believe him , 'cause he 's crazy . avery : you know what ? i - i find it fascinating that you are so deeply ashamed that our father was accused of theft , yet you go and you steal photographs . i wonder how your kids are gon na feel when they find out what you 've done . phyllis : a - a - all right . you 're crossing the line . you 're crossing the line . you know that ? avery : i 've made a career out of it , a good career . phyllis : yeah , you have , sweetie . you 've made a huge career out of it , have n't you ? a huge career , but in your entire career , you have never , ever ...

[ scene_break ] ronan : what are you getting at ? nick : it 's hardly ... professional , you letting a reporter get this involved in a murder investigation , especially when she 's supposed to be a suspect . ronan : what if the time i spend with phyllis has nothing to do with the investigation ? what if i just enjoy her company ? nick : am i supposed to believe there 's something going on between you two ? ronan : if there were , how would that make you feel ? jealous ? angry ? yeah . anger . but obviously , not as much anger as you felt towards diane . right ? i do n't know . maybe you just like to beat up on defenseless women . okay . i 'm gon na be keeping an eye on you , nick .

[ gavel bangs ] this is a tragic but simple case . all you have to do is follow the logic . now , there are three elements which must be proven . means , motive , and opportunity . the defendant , michael `` sonny `` corinthos , is a very wealthy man . he 's a very powerful man who has built an empire on violence and vendettas . these are n't courtroom theatrics . no . these are facts . sonny 's target on the evening of february 28th was his rival , anthony zacchara . now , sonny announced his intentions to murder mr. zacchara in front of witnesses . sonny had a motive . the gun in question was recovered from his girlfriend 's office , thus establishing the means . the final point of logic is opportunity . sonny corinthos has no alibi for the evening of february the 28th . the state will prove that he followed mr. zacchara 's car , shot out his tires , and caused the accident which took the lives of cole thornhart and his 3 year - old daughter , hope . there was a third casualty that evening -- starr manning , who lost both her daughter and the love of her life . starr : the car keeps slipping . it 's going to fall any second . you need to get them out . please . promise me . michael : i promise . if you follow these points of logic , there 's only one conclusion . sonny corinthos is guilty . ewen : i apologize for my lack of focus . i was thinking about a different patient . um , tell me more about steve 's mother . you said her name was heather ? olivia : heather webber . yes . she 's been in ferncliff for the past eight years . ewen : the facility for the criminally insane ? olivia : that 's the one . ewen : what led to her incarceration ? olivia : she killed a man . and i do n't know all the details , but i know that she had a complete , total mental breakdown . ewen : but that was eight years ago . presumably , she 's made progress since then . olivia : she 's been given a conditional release and steve 's agreed to take complete responsibility for her , but she 's -- she 's his mother . he wants to help her , but he 's not at all objective about the situation at the moment . ewen : right , and you 're concerned about heather 's mental state . olivia : uh , let 's just say she did not make the greatest first impression . she was completely rude . she was totally dismissive of me , and she was possessive of steve in a way that was -- it was just freaking creepy . ewen : but she was just released after eight years in a mental facility . is it possible she was just trying too hard ? olivia : you see ? you see ? that 's exactly what i tried to do . i tried to give her the benefit of the doubt . that 's when she kicked it up to the next level . she offered me a cup of téa . ewen : téa ? olivia : significant . significant if you know -- if you know heather 's history . ewen : enlighten me . olivia : okay . when steve was a baby , there was another woman that heather wanted out of the way because she saw her as a rival for steve 's affections , so she served her a cup of téa laced with lsd . ewen : that 's very unsettling . olivia : now , you see -- you see , when -- when steve is in the room , she acts all sort of kooky and eccentric , but when she handed me this cup of téa , no , she knew exactly what she was doing . it was like -- like she was trying to scare me or -- or -- or -- or freak me out or something like that , you know ? now , you see , now i sound like i 'm paranoid when you probably think that i 'm the one that needs the shrink . ewen : no , i believe everyone can benefit from analysis , but i can see why you 'd be worried about heather . olivia : i 'm telling you , there is something off about her , and i just think that maybe she -- she tricked the people at ferncliff into -- into releasing her too soon . ewen : so you 've come to me for a second opinion . olivia : yeah , obviously i would need to talk to steve about it and everything , but -- but i just want to see what the options are . ewen : i 'd be happy to -- to give an independent assessment , but , uh , heather and steve would -- would have to agree to it first . olivia : [ sighs ] heather : i owe you an apology . and you , too . when i came to see you the other night , it was just to -- well , i wanted to make amends for past mistakes . i did not mean to upset anybody or cause any trouble . that was not my intention . steven : that 's easy to misinterpret when someone just shows up out of the blue . luke : yeah . yeah . it 's -- it 's easy . yeah . heather : assuming you were a couple . silly me . i mean , it 's clear that you 're just friends . you 're not really luke 's type at all . he prefers blondes . luke : okay , well , thank you for the -- the apology . we totally accept it . right ? anna : right . you know , we have to get to that thing -- heather : no , no , no , no . please . please , uh , luke , give me a chance to make it up to you . let me buy you lunch . i mean , technically , it would be on steven 's tab , but , well , it 's the thought that counts . luke : yeah , well , it 's very sweet of you , heather , but we have this thing that we really need to -- heather : no , i wo n't take `` no `` for an answer . come on . luke : okay . thanks . anna , join us . anna : no . luke : please ? please ? please ? alexis : well , the district attorney and i do agree on one thing . that the accident that took the lives of cole and hope thornhart is a profound tragedy . i 'm a mother . my client is a father , and words can not describe the sympathy that we have for miss manning and the magnitude of her loss . however , convicting an innocent man will not lessen miss manning 's pain . now , the district attorney just spoke to you about following simple logic . my client , the case against him is entirely circumstantial . it 's all conjecture , no basis in fact . there is no proof that he was on the road the night of the accident . there is no proof that he shot out the tires of anthony zacchara 's car . there is no proof that he is responsible in any way for the accident that caused miss manning to lose her family . my client is innocent . and i intend to prove that to you and to the court . thank you for listening . prosecution may call its first witness . prosecution calls detective dante falconeri . carly : where 's jason ? jason : we 're here for , uh , sam 's check - up . kelly : i did n't realize i had sam on my schedule today . jason : oh . kelly : [ chuckles ] receptionist must have made a mistake . fortunately , i have an opening . we can do it now . sam : oh , that would be great . yes . kelly : follow me . sam : thank you . kelly : i am going to need to examine sam privately first . jason : got it . i 'll -- i 'll be in the waiting area . kelly : okay . [ door closes ] kelly : what 's going on ? sam : i need you to run another dna test . kelly : i do n't understand . the first test proved jason was the father . why would you need another one ? sam : because of this . heather : still as good as when rose kelly was running the place . you remember rose , luke . luke : sure . sure . i liked rose . i wanted to date her . [ chuckles ] but i 've always been partial to the times when my aunt ruby ran this joint . anna : oh , i love ruby . heather : yeah . when aunt ruby took over the diner , you would have thought she 'd been in the business her whole life . you never would have guessed she used to be a madam . luke : yes , she was . and i 've always been proud of all my aunt 's business ventures . you know , she left this place to , uh , me and bobbie . [ cell phone ringing ] steven : [ clears throat ] excuse me . steven : hi . olivia : i need to talk to you about your mother . heather : mmm . this is so good . anna : mm . heather : it reminds me of when i was a little girl . oh ! oh , i am so sorry ! gosh , i am such a klutz . anna : really ? heather : sorry . on the evening of february 28th , the same night that anthony zacchara 's tires were shot out , you , yourself were the target of another shooting , detective ? dante : yes , i was . were you injured ? dante : uh , no . sonny , my father , pushed me out of the way . he saved my life . was your father injured ? dante : yeah , he was shot in the left arm . did you try and get your father some medical attention ? dante : yes , i did , and when i returned with a doctor , sonny was gone . did you search for your father ? dante : yes , i did . and where did you find your father , detective ? dante : at john zacchara 's penthouse holding a gun in his hand . johnny : he was armed with a 9 mm semi - automatic . he was gon na kill me . did he tell you why ? johnny : yeah . he thought i was the one who fired at dante in the garage . carly : i told sonny that i was with johnny most of the evening . and were you able to convince your ex - husband of mr. zacchara 's innocence ? carly : sonny came to believe that someone else was the shooter . who was that ? carly : johnny gave the impression that it was anthony zacchara , that he might have been responsible . johnny : when sonny left my apartment , he said that my grandfather , anthony , had tried to kill dante and that he was gon na make him pay . tracy : mr. corinthos barged into my house and announced that he was gon na kill my -- husband , anthony zacchara . not that i would have minded . could you clarify that last statement ? you mean you would n't have minded if mr. corinthos murdered your husband ? tracy : [ chuckles ] not really . but then i thought about alice , our housekeeper , complaining about the mess and my father lecturing me about bringing violence into the house and my sister - in - law threatening to evict me , so in the end , i decided it was easier to request that mr. corinthos leave , which he did . and did mr. corinthos say anything else before he so obligingly left your home ? tracy : possibly . i do n't really recall . ms. quartermaine , i have to remind you , you are under oath . you need to tell us sonny 's exact words if possible . tracy : it was something to the effect of -- `` finding you will be half the fun . watching you die will be the other . `` your witness . miss davis ? cross ? alexis : thank you . did you actually see sonny shoot out anthony zacchara 's tires on the night in question ? tracy : no , i did not . dante : no , i did not . carly : no , i did not . johnny : no , i did not . alexis : no further questions , your honor . step down . call your next witness . prosecution calls starr manning .

[ gavel bangs ] this is a tragic but simple case . all you have to do is follow the logic . now , there are three elements which must be proven . means , motive , and opportunity . the defendant , michael `` sonny `` corinthos , is a very wealthy man . he 's a very powerful man who has built an empire on violence and vendettas . these are n't courtroom theatrics . no . these are facts . sonny 's target on the evening of february 28th was his rival , anthony zacchara . now , sonny announced his intentions to murder mr. zacchara in front of witnesses . sonny had a motive . the gun in question was recovered from his girlfriend 's office , thus establishing the means . the final point of logic is opportunity . sonny corinthos has no alibi for the evening of february the 28th . the state will prove that he followed mr. zacchara 's car , shot out his tires , and caused the accident which took the lives of cole thornhart and his 3 year - old daughter , hope . there was a third casualty that evening -- starr manning , who lost both her daughter and the love of her life . starr : the car keeps slipping . it 's going to fall any second . you need to get them out . please . promise me . michael : i promise . if you follow these points of logic , there 's only one conclusion . sonny corinthos is guilty . ewen : i apologize for my lack of focus . i was thinking about a different patient . um , tell me more about steve 's mother . you said her name was heather ? olivia : heather webber . yes . she 's been in ferncliff for the past eight years . ewen : the facility for the criminally insane ? olivia : that 's the one . ewen : what led to her incarceration ? olivia : she killed a man . and i do n't know all the details , but i know that she had a complete , total mental breakdown . ewen : but that was eight years ago . presumably , she 's made progress since then . olivia : she 's been given a conditional release and steve 's agreed to take complete responsibility for her , but she 's -- she 's his mother . he wants to help her , but he 's not at all objective about the situation at the moment . ewen : right , and you 're concerned about heather 's mental state . olivia : uh , let 's just say she did not make the greatest first impression . she was completely rude . she was totally dismissive of me , and she was possessive of steve in a way that was -- it was just freaking creepy . ewen : but she was just released after eight years in a mental facility . is it possible she was just trying too hard ? olivia : you see ? you see ? that 's exactly what i tried to do . i tried to give her the benefit of the doubt . that 's when she kicked it up to the next level . she offered me a cup of téa . ewen : téa ? olivia : significant . significant if you know -- if you know heather 's history . ewen : enlighten me . olivia : okay . when steve was a baby , there was another woman that heather wanted out of the way because she saw her as a rival for steve 's affections , so she served her a cup of téa laced with lsd . ewen : that 's very unsettling . olivia : now , you see -- you see , when -- when steve is in the room , she acts all sort of kooky and eccentric , but when she handed me this cup of téa , no , she knew exactly what she was doing . it was like -- like she was trying to scare me or -- or -- or -- or freak me out or something like that , you know ? now , you see , now i sound like i 'm paranoid when you probably think that i 'm the one that needs the shrink . ewen : no , i believe everyone can benefit from analysis , but i can see why you 'd be worried about heather . olivia : i 'm telling you , there is something off about her , and i just think that maybe she -- she tricked the people at ferncliff into -- into releasing her too soon . ewen : so you 've come to me for a second opinion . olivia : yeah , obviously i would need to talk to steve about it and everything , but -- but i just want to see what the options are . ewen : i 'd be happy to -- to give an independent assessment , but , uh , heather and steve would -- would have to agree to it first . olivia : [ sighs ] heather : i owe you an apology . and you , too . when i came to see you the other night , it was just to -- well , i wanted to make amends for past mistakes . i did not mean to upset anybody or cause any trouble . that was not my intention . steven : that 's easy to misinterpret when someone just shows up out of the blue . luke : yeah . yeah . it 's -- it 's easy . yeah . heather : assuming you were a couple . silly me . i mean , it 's clear that you 're just friends . you 're not really luke 's type at all . he prefers blondes . luke : okay , well , thank you for the -- the apology . we totally accept it . right ? anna : right . you know , we have to get to that thing -- heather : no , no , no , no . please . please , uh , luke , give me a chance to make it up to you . let me buy you lunch . i mean , technically , it would be on steven 's tab , but , well , it 's the thought that counts . luke : yeah , well , it 's very sweet of you , heather , but we have this thing that we really need to -- heather : no , i wo n't take `` no `` for an answer . come on . luke : okay . thanks . anna , join us . anna : no . luke : please ? please ? please ? alexis : well , the district attorney and i do agree on one thing . that the accident that took the lives of cole and hope thornhart is a profound tragedy . i 'm a mother . my client is a father , and words can not describe the sympathy that we have for miss manning and the magnitude of her loss . however , convicting an innocent man will not lessen miss manning 's pain . now , the district attorney just spoke to you about following simple logic . my client , the case against him is entirely circumstantial . it 's all conjecture , no basis in fact . there is no proof that he was on the road the night of the accident . there is no proof that he shot out the tires of anthony zacchara 's car . there is no proof that he is responsible in any way for the accident that caused miss manning to lose her family . my client is innocent . and i intend to prove that to you and to the court . thank you for listening . prosecution may call its first witness . prosecution calls detective dante falconeri . carly : where 's jason ? jason : we 're here for , uh , sam 's check - up . kelly : i did n't realize i had sam on my schedule today . jason : oh . kelly : [ chuckles ] receptionist must have made a mistake . fortunately , i have an opening . we can do it now . sam : oh , that would be great . yes . kelly : follow me . sam : thank you . kelly : i am going to need to examine sam privately first . jason : got it . i 'll -- i 'll be in the waiting area . kelly : okay . [ door closes ] kelly : what 's going on ? sam : i need you to run another dna test . kelly : i do n't understand . the first test proved jason was the father . why would you need another one ? sam : because of this . heather : still as good as when rose kelly was running the place . you remember rose , luke . luke : sure . sure . i liked rose . i wanted to date her . [ chuckles ] but i 've always been partial to the times when my aunt ruby ran this joint . anna : oh , i love ruby . heather : yeah . when aunt ruby took over the diner , you would have thought she 'd been in the business her whole life . you never would have guessed she used to be a madam . luke : yes , she was . and i 've always been proud of all my aunt 's business ventures . you know , she left this place to , uh , me and bobbie . [ cell phone ringing ] steven : [ clears throat ] excuse me . steven : hi . olivia : i need to talk to you about your mother . heather : mmm . this is so good . anna : mm . heather : it reminds me of when i was a little girl . oh ! oh , i am so sorry ! gosh , i am such a klutz . anna : really ? heather : sorry . on the evening of february 28th , the same night that anthony zacchara 's tires were shot out , you , yourself were the target of another shooting , detective ? dante : yes , i was . were you injured ? dante : uh , no . sonny , my father , pushed me out of the way . he saved my life . was your father injured ? dante : yeah , he was shot in the left arm . did you try and get your father some medical attention ? dante : yes , i did , and when i returned with a doctor , sonny was gone . did you search for your father ? dante : yes , i did . and where did you find your father , detective ? dante : at john zacchara 's penthouse holding a gun in his hand . johnny : he was armed with a 9 mm semi - automatic . he was gon na kill me . did he tell you why ? johnny : yeah . he thought i was the one who fired at dante in the garage . carly : i told sonny that i was with johnny most of the evening . and were you able to convince your ex - husband of mr. zacchara 's innocence ? carly : sonny came to believe that someone else was the shooter . who was that ? carly : johnny gave the impression that it was anthony zacchara , that he might have been responsible . johnny : when sonny left my apartment , he said that my grandfather , anthony , had tried to kill dante and that he was gon na make him pay . tracy : mr. corinthos barged into my house and announced that he was gon na kill my -- husband , anthony zacchara . not that i would have minded . could you clarify that last statement ? you mean you would n't have minded if mr. corinthos murdered your husband ? tracy : [ chuckles ] not really . but then i thought about alice , our housekeeper , complaining about the mess and my father lecturing me about bringing violence into the house and my sister - in - law threatening to evict me , so in the end , i decided it was easier to request that mr. corinthos leave , which he did . and did mr. corinthos say anything else before he so obligingly left your home ? tracy : possibly . i do n't really recall . ms. quartermaine , i have to remind you , you are under oath . you need to tell us sonny 's exact words if possible . tracy : it was something to the effect of -- `` finding you will be half the fun . watching you die will be the other . `` your witness . miss davis ? cross ? alexis : thank you . did you actually see sonny shoot out anthony zacchara 's tires on the night in question ? tracy : no , i did not . dante : no , i did not . carly : no , i did not . johnny : no , i did not . alexis : no further questions , your honor . step down . call your next witness . prosecution calls starr manning .

do you think i just ran out and tracked billy down and said , `` hey , you 'll never guess what happened `` ? josh : okay . so how did he find out ? reva : he guessed . josh : well , okay . like i said , it does n't really matter . the point is : when i saw you at the prison , i could n't tell what you were thinking . but if i had to guess , it would be that you wanted me to come clean with cassie about what happened . reva : well , that was n't what i was thinking , not really . josh : reva , that night ... that night was very , very important to me . it was n't planned . it was n't anything . it just happened . and i 'm grateful that it happened . i needed it . what i was going through at that time ... reva : what we were both going through . and i 'm not sorry about it . josh : i do n't want you to be . i just know that i ca n't expect cassie to understand . reva : oh , we 've had this conversation before . you do n't have to tell me again . josh : that is when i was in prison , and nobody knew that i was going to get out . reva : i 'm just glad you are out . josh : so we 're on the same page ?

[ scene_break ] sharon : you guys , thanks so much for having me over . nick : yeah , no problem . it sounded important . phyllis : yes , is there a problem with noah ? summer : ( fusses ) sharon : no . um , i mean , not yet . but i 'm really worried about him . nick : what 's going on ? sharon : well ... i 'm moving out of jack 's house after the first of the year . phyllis : oh . wow . nick : that 's a big decision . sharon : yes , yes . but you know what ? it 's what i need to do . it 's what i really need to do to clear my head . phyllis : absolutely . are you -- are you filing for divorce ? sharon : no ! no ! no ! phyllis : no ? okay . sharon : nothing like that . this is just -- i need some time and some space to really think this through . nick : so noah does n't know yet ? sharon : no , he does n't . but you know what ? i just -- i wan na wait until after the holidays to tell him . i do n't wan na spoil it for him . nick : yeah , well , if there 's anything we can do to help , just ask . phyllis : yeah , definitely . definitely , we 're here for you . sharon : thank you . nick : do you know where you 're going ? sharon : mm - hmm . yeah , um , i 'm going back to our old house . phyllis : is n't nikki there now ? sharon : mm - hmm . phyllis : oh , wow . uh , have you told her ? sharon : not yet . phyllis : oh , well , good luck with that . [ scene_break ] jack : my , i did n't know i was so popular . david : you 're not . kay : victor has called in nikki 's loans , jack . jack : wow , that 's harsh even by his standards . nikki : well , i have no intention of letting him steamroll me . jack : you may not have much recourse . nikki : i 'm suing him . for causing the damage to n.v.p . up at clear springs . jack : ai n't that a kick in the pants ? david : it was victor 's drilling that caused the accident . jack : yeah , so the reports say . he is gon na try to refute that , you know ? kay : well , he will try . jack : where do you fit in in all of this ? kay : well , chancellor industries is a co - claimant in the case . the delays and the cleanup have cost me a fortune . jack : yeah , i know . i swimming in the same red ink you are . oh , wait , you -- you want me to be part of this ? nikki : well , jack , as an owner of property that was damaged in the accident ... david : it 's only logical . jack : from whose perspective ? kay : well , i 've seen the preliminary report from victor 's insurance company . and the payout is just a fraction of the cleanup costs . david : and that is only a small part of it . nikki : think of the revenue you 're losing . when we finally do open , it 's gon na take a very long time to overcome the negative publicity from the accident . jack : have you drawn up a complaint ? nikki : all spelled out here very acrimoniously . what started out as our dream project has become our nightmare . courtesy of victor newman . [ scene_break ] victor : please sit down , neil . victor : this is their counterproposal ? this is hardly different . what the hell are insurance policies for but to cover an accident like this ? neil : well , i 'm sure they 're taking a hard line because the drilling company is owned by you personally and not newman enterprises . victor : i do n't give a damn . if they do n't improve on these numbers , then what the hell ? let 's take our business elsewhere . neil : yeah , but , victor , you -- you might wan na give that some more thought . victor : i do n't have to think about a damn thing , neil . neil : we may not be able to find another insurer if nikki goes ahead with her lawsuit . victor : that lawsuit would be against me , not against the company . neil : no , i understand that . but the insurance company may not view it that way . newman enterprises could suffer collateral damage . especially with kay chancellor on board . victor : even the cops wo n't leave me alone . neil : well , did something happen since you were served with warrants ? victor : this female detective , whatever the hell her name is , came by and practically accused me of killing ji min kim . neil : you must be kidding me . how could she do that ? victor : apparently , they found his blood on my gym bag . neil : but how is that even possible , victor ? victor : i have no clue . i have no idea . all i know is that the cops and the d.a . probably would like nothing more than to have a rich and famous guy on the stand . and that i guess defines me . [ scene_break ] j.t . : go over there . talk to her . paul : hey , mind if i join you ? heather : i 'm a little busy . paul : well , i was just wondering , uh , what your plans were for the holidays ? you gon na go see your mother ? heather : no . i 'm not . paul : in that case , would you like to join maggie and me for christmas eve or christmas dinner ? heather : no , but thank you . paul : have you ever been alone for the holidays ? i have . it 's not much fun . heather : i 'll survive . paul : i was working on a case . i was undercover trying to save my dad . i had to make it look like i was on the outs with my entire family . heather : is there any point to this story ? paul : well , yeah . as a matter of fact , there is . i felt terrible . it was christmas eve and i was shut out . and it was one of the worst nights of my life . heather : i was shut out from knowing my real father for over 25 years . i think i have you beat . [ scene_break ] jack : well , i got ta say , this should get victor 's attention . nikki : he 'll go through the roof when he reads this . kay : and then he will come for us . jack : i hope you 're prepared . nikki : with you and katherine behind me , i will be more than prepared . jack : i can go after victor all on my own . i do n't need to two of you . david : you know there 's strength in numbers . the most effective way to go after victor is in a concentrated attack rather than one on one . jack : you 'll forgive me if i do n't value your particular brand of advice . nikki : well , you should , jack . he 's right . jack : that remains to be seen . look , if i go it alone , i do n't have to answer to the two of you . kay : we all have the same goals , jack . jack : yeah , tell me that when it 's decision time and i 'm outvoted two to one . nikki : all right , this is not a match made in heaven . you do n't trust us . we do n't trust you . but i think we can all agree that victor is the bad guy here . kay : what do you think ? jack : i think you make some good points . david : well , here 's another for you . if nikki loses n.v.p . , victor is your new partner in clear springs . nikki : jack , i promise you , it would behoove you greatly to help us make our case as strong as possible . [ scene_break ] nick : hey , dad . thanks . so is , uh , there any change with victoria ? victor : no . unfortunately not . what brings you by ? nick : i wanted to see if you , uh ... still wanted to build that crib for reed ? victor : oh ! how nice of you to remember . nick : yeah , i 'm actually looking forward to doing that . victor : well , so am i . how about on the weekend ? nick : cool . victor : yeah . and here i thought you 'd come by to lecture me . nick : no . that 's not why i 'm here . victor : why are you here ? nick : i wanted to talk to you about christmas . victor : what about it ? nick : well , it should be a time for celebration and forgiveness . victor : uh - huh . in other words , you did come to lecture me . nick : no . i just want the fighting to stop , dad . victor : i would like nothing more , son . nick : you know , ever since the explosion , we 've all been on edge . we 've all said and done things that we regret . this should be a time when we can set things aside and start to heal . victor : hmm . you 're talking about your mother and me . nick : this tension between the two of you -- it 's not good . it 's affecting everyone else . victor : sorry about that . so you 're asking me to make an overture , is that it ? nick : it could n't hurt . victor : but you know for me to make an overture , she has to be receptive . and she ai n't . nick : dad , honestly , have you tried ? victor : son ... she is otherwise occupied , okay ? nick : what are you talking about ? victor : let 's just say that your mother is more concerned with her so - called independence and that excuse of a man she 's running around with . this is all self - imposed . i had nothing to do with any of this . she started it all . she made it personal . nick : you made it personal when you called in those loans . victor : son , i did that to protect my company 's interest . what are you talking about ? nick : okay , well , what about the drilling ? you did n't tell mom about it or anyone else , because you did n't want anyone to know what you were up to . victor : you do n't know what you 're talking about . nick : i know if you had n't started drilling , my sister would n't be in a coma . and your grandson would n't be fighting for his life . victor : get out of my house now .

steffy sees the spontaneous hug between sally and liam . sally tells liam she never thought she could be this happy . bill goes to see ridge who tells him brooke is not here but if she were she would not want to talk to him . he always knew she would see bill 's true colors . bill says they are going through a rough patch right now but they are still married and he expects ridge to respect that . he is deadly serious when he says to stay the hell away from his wife . ridge says brooke does not have to tell him anything but he does know that she is through with him . rj hugs his mom and says he knows she walked out on bill . he saw her hug his dad and he thinks that is significant so he wonders what she is going to do next . he knows she still loves his dad . wyatt questions justin on some purchase for $ 50 million with only the letter g and he knows it was not from bill so it had to be liam . they start looking at the computer following transactions and sally 's name comes up twice . wyatt figures it out that liam bought the property and then just gave it to sally as a gift ( g ) . steffy comes on into the office and as they talk liam admits he gave the spectra building to sally . she does not see the justice in that when she belongs in jail . he says he was only trying to keep his dad out of jail by buying the building and giving it to sally . he says this is his family business so why would steffy even care . he thinks he has an ethical obligation to right some things that his dad has done . it is done and it does not have to affect their lives .

! sally : so , you 're saying the reason that the cutting room was so stuffy is because of the ducts ? mm - hmm . the ducts were too old and too narrow . sally : could you guys give me a minute ? well , we are definitely not fit for company , but , uh , welcome . steffy : yeah . i saw downstairs . i 'm so sorry . it 's even worse than i imagined . sally : yeah . the only good thing about it is that this place stinks of smoke so badly , nobody realizes that we 're swimming in sweat without ac . [ chuckles ] steffy : thought you were leaving town . sally : i was . yeah , uh , but then i thought about my great - aunt sally and her never - say - die spunk , and i thought , you know ... might as well give spectra one last shot . steffy : with my husband 's help ? sally : good . good . okay . uh , he told you ? steffy : of course . sally : look , you really are the luckiest woman on earth with a man like that . steffy : how could you accept that kind of gift ? sally : i mean , i said no , but he would n't listen . steffy : right . right . sally : look , steffy , i do n't think of it as a gift . it 's a debt that i have to pay back . steffy : so , you 're gon na give back , what , $ 50 million ? sally : you know , there are some people that believe in me . steffy : i know there are people that believe in you . my brother was one of them . he gave you money , and ... look what happened there . sally : okay , look , i do n't want to fight with you . steffy : i 'm not fighting with you . i 'm just giving you facts . you have proven to me over and over that i ca n't let my guard down with you . any more sponging off my family , stealing from my company ... i will prosecute . you will have to answer to me . and this time , you will pay .Summarize.[/INST]steffy sees the spontaneous hug between sally and liam . sally tells liam she never thought she could be this happy . bill goes to see ridge who tells him brooke is not here but if she were she would not want to talk to him . he always knew she would see bill 's true colors . bill says they are going through a rough patch right now but they are still married and he expects ridge to respect that . he is deadly serious when he says to stay the hell away from his wife . ridge says brooke does not have to tell him anything but he does know that she is through with him . rj hugs his mom and says he knows she walked out on bill . he saw her hug his dad and he thinks that is significant so he wonders what she is going to do next . he knows she still loves his dad . wyatt questions justin on some purchase for $ 50 million with only the letter g and he knows it was not from bill so it had to be liam . they start looking at the computer following transactions and sally 's name comes up twice . wyatt figures it out that liam bought the property and then just gave it to sally as a gift ( g ) . steffy comes on into the office and as they talk liam admits he gave the spectra building to sally . she does not see the justice in that when she belongs in jail . he says he was only trying to keep his dad out of jail by buying the building and giving it to sally . he says this is his family business so why would steffy even care . he thinks he has an ethical obligation to right some things that his dad has done . it is done and it does not have to affect their lives .</s>

michael : i 'm sorry . lauren : mmm . michael : just drowning in legalese here . lauren : i understand , believe me . michael : just like i understand why you keep checking your phone . lauren : well , now it 's because -- michael : it 's scott . you 're worried about him . lauren : he did n't come home last night . michael : sweetheart , when your son is a grown man , he may have other places to stay every now and then . lauren : i understand that , but sharon ? really ? michael : why not sharon ? lauren : have you forgotten ... about christian ? that woman essentially stole a child . michael : we both know why you 're zeroing in on this . what happened with scott and sheila has nothing to do with this . juliet : tell your client i do n't want any more surprise visits . michael : why would victoria -- juliet : cane stopped by my room last night . you know how that 's going to look in court , right ? ashley : dina and graham both have suites at the gcac . clearly , she does n't want him to leave her side . that tells us exactly how he rates with her . jack : i have yet to get a real answer from dina about this guy or from anything you 've told me . one thing we do know -- he ca n't be too thrilled that dina 's decided not to go back to paris just yet . ashley : and yet he 's not happy just having her to himself at the hotel . he wants an ocean between her and her children . why ? jack : i hope you are not planning another confrontation . ashley : no . are you kidding ? that did not go very well . i 'm gon na have to find a new approach if i 'm gon na figure this guy out -- what he wants with our mother . devon : dina , if you do n't mind me asking , what talents of graham 's , uh , would you hope to see me use ? dina : well , personally , i find graham to be an invaluable adviser , and i feel quite certain we 'll be able to find a proper place for him within the company . devon : right . well , that 's something that i would have to run by neil , of course . dina : well , of course ! of course ! graham : devon , let me reassure you ... dina has more than enough personal business to keep her busy here in genoa city . she 'll be giving you and your father all the space you need to run the company as you see fit . our only goal is to be supportive . devon : well , that 's -- that 's great to hear , and my goal is to manage all the tools that i have at my disposal to make this venture a success . dina : oh , devon reminds me so much of my granddaughter abby -- all that wonderful drive and special enthusiasm and purpose . devon : i 've always admired abby . she 's a great friend of mine . dina : i remember . devon : and you know what ? i 'm sure she 's thrilled that you 're staying in town . if you 'll excuse me , i 'm ready to take off . graham : sure . dina : well , young man , do talk to neil and keep us posted how things are shaping up with my -- with your -- company . devon : of course . okay . graham : i 'll make sure he follows through . we need to protect your interests . you seem distracted . are you thinking about your talk with jack last night ? dina : i hurt him by not accepting his offer to stay at the house . graham : well , you hardly need me to point this out , but you 're in much better hands with me . dina : i know . [ clears throat ] i really feel i should go see jack and clear the air . graham : just ... do n't let him talk you into anything . dina : i wo n't . hilary : juliet asked me for a recommendation , so i gave her one . mariah : and then you had me dig into the lawsuit , knowing exactly what i would find . hilary : why would i -- mariah : so no one could accuse you of having a stake in this . hilary : the only stake in this is news for my show . and when everything that cane did comes out in court -- oh , news . mariah : nobody has proven that cane did anything . hilary : you know what ? i think you 're a little too emotionally invested . i 'm taking you off the story . i 'll take it from here . mariah : [ chuckles softly ] do you really think that cane cheated on lily and then used his position at brash & sassy ! to get what he wanted from juliet ? hilary : it does n't really matter what i believe . if it 's news , we cover it . and when this lands in court , oh , you are gon na be so sorry that i am the one on the national news feed and not you . mm . mariah : [ softly ] lily . lily : mariah . hey . what 's up ? mariah : you did n't hear it from me , but , um , watch your back . lily : [ scoffs ] okay . that 's cryptic . why are you whispering ? mariah : i 'm at work . you know what juliet 's claiming , right ? lily : how did you find out ? mariah : the news is n't public yet , but that may soon change , and the coverage may not exactly be ... objective . lily : hilary ? mariah : who else ? lily : [ sighs ] thanks for the heads up . damn it . how did i not see this coming ? cane : all right , look -- we 're gon na hear from leslie soon , but , in the meantime , here -- would you like the honor of calling michael and telling him the case is dead ? billy : no , 'cause we do n't know that that 's gon na happen , and michael should be the one telling us that . victoria : i 'll see what he says . michael : no , leslie . emotions are running high , but i 'm not gon na let you blow this out of proportion . now , listen -- hello ? you went to juliet 's hotel , alone ? cane : [ sighs ] victoria : what did leslie say ? michael : what do you think she said ? you just handed her a huge present -- a winning case all wrapped up in a nice , shiny bow . sharon : that was amazing . scott : it 's just eggs . sharon : but you cooked . scott : well , you impress easily . sharon : i assure you that i do not , but this morning i have been impressed by many things . [ cell phone chimes ] scott : from victor . `` where are you ? `` sounds like he does n't appreciate my playing hooky . sharon : ooh , shocker . scott : `` having ... breakfast ... with a ... major rainmaker . sorry . ca n't talk . hit you later . `` send . sharon : ticking off victor newman -- risky . scott : it 's worth it . come here . sharon : so , what else do you cook ? scott : uh , this is pretty much it . sharon : hmm . scott : what ? sharon : i get this is your go - to morning - after menu , is n't it ? scott : uh , some more coffee ? sharon : oh , admit it . i 'm not the first woman you 've cooked this up for . scott : on occasion , perhaps . but ... this is the first time that i 've ever really put my heart into it . michael : you handed juliet 's lawyer a lethal weapon . leslie is gon na paint that visit as a back - channel attempt to pressure juliet into dropping the suit ! cane : that 's not what happened . all i did was go there and appeal to her conscience . billy : no , what you did is turn this from a crisis into an all - out disaster . cane : when i left there last night , juliet was prepared to forget about all this . i do n't know what happened . maybe leslie saw these billable hours evaporate so she decided to double down . billy : you 're gon na blame the lawyer ? that 's not a good idea . victoria : okay , look -- enough . you compromised us by going out on your own , and i am furious right now . but we need solutions , not arguments . i think we should revisit your idea about expediting the discovery phase . cane : wait . what does that mean ? michael : in a civil suit , before the trial begins , all potential witnesses are questioned under oath before the judge is present . cane : you mean depositions ? michael : it 's a chance for all sides to learn what evidence the other side has . cane : well , how is that gon na help us ? victoria : it could expose just how little leslie has to work with . michael : or maybe help convince juliet that her best bet is to settle privately or perhaps even drop the case completely . victoria : michael can grill juliet and make her back up her so - called claims . cane : that means i have to testify , too , right ? victoria : that 's right , especially since you 're the only one who can refute what juliet is claiming . michael : it 's your chance to prove she lied on the record . hilary : lily . lily : i have had it with you . you have officially gone too far . hilary : have n't we had this argument already ? lily : it is one thing to nudge juliet towards filing a lawsuit , but if you go on air with baseless claims about cane , you 'll be the one getting sued . hilary : if cane is innocent ... lily : `` if `` ? hilary : ... then you will have nothing to worry about . if he 's not , then you 'll have bigger problems than me -- a shaky marriage , a shiny new spokesmodel career on the line . ohh . lily : see , you think everyone is as shallow and vapid as you are . i 'm not even thinking about my job . but all of this will be gone after our slander suit . hilary : [ scoffs ] it ai n't slander if it 's true . lily : it 's not true , and you know that . hilary : really ? i mean , you 're not even a little bit suspicious ? because i would think that cane would be entitled to a little something on the side , especially since you cheated on the man . lily : are you that determined to lash out at me that you would drag my family through hell with these lies ? have you even thought about charlie and mattie ? hilary : maybe your husband should have thought about his family before he instructed juliet on how to `` get ahead `` in her career . lily : you are disgusting . hilary : it 's not my problem that you do n't know how to keep your husband satisfied . lily : did you really just say that to me ? ! did you really just say that to me ? ! jordan : how many times do i have to wrestle you two ? hilary : keep that crazy girl away from me . lily : fine . jordan : dang . jack : i was n't expecting you , mother . dina : well , i guess i should have called first . jack : no , you 're always welcome here . i am a little surprised to see you , though . dina : well , i was concerned about the way we left things . jack : you mean when you decided to stay at the hotel suite rather than at home with your family ? dina : well , i hope you understand how much it meant to me -- that invitation . jack : apparently not enough for you to accept my invitation . dina : well , i - i - i think it 's the best decision . jack : you think or graham thinks ? dina : why does it always have to be about graham ? jack : i do n't know , mother . you tell me . dina : it 's not about him . jack : no ? dina : no . jack : then why do i get the feeling that you are not comfortable unless he is constantly at your side ? dina : i depend on him . jack : yes , you 've said as much . and you prefer that to depending on your children . dina : i have no experience depending on my children , just as my children have no experience depending on me . jack : w -- i - is that what this is about ? this is why you ca n't come home ? is it the memories ? dina : memories ? [ voice breaking ] what memories , son ? that house reminds me of all the special moments i could have had and i did n't . and there 's no one to blame ... but me . scott : the next time you think i 've run out on you , you know ... think about it . sharon : i will , because i know better . scott : because i fed you ? sharon : because that 's not the kind of person you are . you know , from the moment we started talking at crimson lights , when you decided to help a poor student who was freaking out over a paper she had to write , there was nothing in it for you , but you decided to help . scott : well , turns out there was something in it for me , after all . sharon : [ chuckles softly ] when dylan left , it was -- it was just very sudden , so it was hard for me to imagine what would be next for me . it was actually easily to think that nothing would ever happen . and then you snuck up on me . scott : like you do with me . i just meant to come home and recuperate for a few weeks and then get back out there , cover more stories , but ... you gave me a good reason to stick around . i 'll call you . sharon : [ chuckles ] scott : bye . jordan : lily , hang on one second . you still think hilary pushed juliet into filing the lawsuit ? lily : ask her if she got a finder 's fee for supplying juliet with a lawyer . jordan : are you kidding ? lily : no . she 'll put a spin on that . she 's great at that . oh , and , by the way , i 'm sorry that you wo n't get a chance at destroying my family . juliet 's dropping the case . cane did n't do any of the things that you 're accusing him of . and , by the way , our marriage is still strong . jordan : is that true ? hilary : about me helping juliet ? okay , please . it 's hardly some conspiracy . the woman asked for a recommendation , and i gave her one . what 's the crime in that ? jordan : and you get a jump on the juicy story . hilary : well , according to lily , it 's a non - story . jordan : that you would have exploited . hilary : i 'm a reporter , okay ? and a case with brash & sassy ! ? what , do you want me to just not do my job ? jordan : depends on how well you do it . hilary : now you 're not making any sense . jordan : no ? hilary : no . jordan : let 's see if i got this right . juliet gets fired , and then , suddenly , she starts talking a lawsuit after you came along , conveniently hooking her up with a lawyer , and then when this thing hits , you get the exclusive . hilary : that is not what happened , okay ? jordan : i 'm pretty sure that 's exactly what happened . you 're hurting billy . you 're hurting victoria . hell , i work for brash & sassy ! you 're hurting me , too . and all for what -- to get some boost in your ratings ? [ sighs ] i hope you 're happy with yourself . [ sighs ] hilary : jordan , stop . billy : could this be a mistake , rushing in to something like a deposition ? victoria : [ sighs ] maybe . michael : with this thing potentially going public , we 're on a ticking clock here . victoria : well , we need to come up with as much ammunition as we can before that happens . michael , has your investigator been able to turn up anything on juliet ? michael : unfortunately , no . juliet is completely clean . her prior consulting clients ca n't say enough good things about her . she 's never made any accusations of this nature or had any ethical breaches . billy : until now . michael : she graduated top of her class . she never got in trouble in college . cane : what about personal problems -- you know , ex - boyfriend , stuff like that ? michael : if you 're hoping she turns out to be a stalker , forget it . there 's nothing like that . victoria : social media ? michael : no drunken photos , no embarrassing posts . [ laughing ] to be honest , she would make a phenomenal witness , especially if this ends up in front of a jury . billy : and what do we got ? the ultimate bad boy . i mean , she 's gon na look like a saint when they start picking apart your past . cane : yeah , well , lucky she 's not accusing you . it would be a lot worse , would n't it ? billy : as opposed to what we 're in right now ? victoria : stop , right now . i am trying my hardest to keep this company solvent , and it 's hard enough to do with you two sniping at each other . michael : if we 're moving up discovery , the two of us need to carve out some time to prepare . we do n't want leslie to catch us with our pants down , figuratively , of course . cane : i am sorry . talking to juliet 's made this worse , and i am -- i 'm sorry . michael , i will -- i will sit down with you and i 'll prep whatever you need from me , but right now , i just -- i need to go and talk to lily and tell her this case is back on . excuse me . [ exhales sharply ] dina : why do you keep thinking there 's a competition between you and graham ? jack : gee . i wonder why , mother . dina : well , there 's not . jack : there 's not ? dina : no . jack : if you believe that , you are in denial . that man is competing for your attention and your affection , and right now , he 's winning . dina : [ chuckling ] oh , i did n't know that i had to make a choice between my son and that man who -- jack : that man who what ? go ahead . finish that . dina : well , it was n't easy . it -- [ sighs ] it was a tough decision to sell the company , and not knowing whether it was the right time or not -- jack : so , graham talked you into that decision ? dina : no , he did n't . he listened and he helped me sort out the realities . jack : what realities ? dina : darling , i am a woman in my 70s , and there are certain facts that go along with that . jack : oh , mother , do n't be morbid . dina : i 'm not being morbid . my sell - by date is a long way off . jack : well , i am counting on that . dina : well , that 's something , darling , i ca n't control . but there 's no reason to worry . jack : yeah . i 'm wondering about that . dina : i was hoping my decision to stay would be a positive one for you . jack : well , you kept repeatedly insisting on going back to paris . dina : well ... i changed my mind . it 's a woman 's prerogative . jack : or is it possible graham agreed to let you change your mind ? dina : graham will do anything that will make me happy , and my spending time with my children and my granddaughter makes me very happy right now . ashley : i 'm not going to belabor this . i 'm not sure what i think i 'm gon na accomplish in this encounter , but now that my mother 's gon na be here a while , i do think there are things that need to be said . graham : um ... should i make this a double vodka ? ashley : you 're always so charming . graham : [ scoffs ] while you are always so ... ashley : not ? graham : [ chuckles softly ] ashley : okay . i guess it 's up to me to somehow rectify our recent animosity and put it behind us , so ... i am sorry , graham , again . graham : that 's what you said ? thank you for translating . ashley : honestly , i never anticipated feeling protective over dina , after everything she 's done to me and my siblings , but she is still my mother , and it makes me uneasy knowing nothing about her constant companion and what you want with her . graham : so , you assumed ? younger man , older woman ... ashley : i do n't care about that , really . that 's your business . i do seem to care about her welfare , however . i would just like to have some kind of peace with the one man who has more access to my mother than anybody , or at least coexist . graham : i mean , i 'm grateful you tried ... even if your heart was n't in it . uh ... stay for a coffee , anyway . [ door closes ] mariah : so , let me guess -- scott went home early and you stayed up all night with the books . sharon : we had a very lovely evening . mariah : [ gasps ] do i detect a certain glow about you ? sharon : he makes me very happy . mariah : good . you deserve that . sharon : and he cooked for me . mariah : edible ? sharon : 5-star . mariah : wow . maybe he really is a keeper . sharon : you know , scott is very different than the other men that i 've been involved with . he 's not rescuing me or protecting me or ... [ sighs ] mariah : he 's wooing you . sharon : and i 'm really falling for him . scott : hi , mom . lauren : hey ! you 're home early . how are things going with victor ? scott : oh , fine . lauren : you know , scott [ sighs ] we never get a chance to catch up anymore , about all sorts of things . scott : that may be a record . lauren : what do you mean ? scott : `` all sorts of things . `` that 's code for `` sharon . `` you want to know where things stand , do n't you ? lauren : you know , honey , you do n't answer to me . date who you want to date . scott : gee . thanks . lauren : just know what you 're getting into . scott : you mean ... do i know that sharon has a past or a history ? i think everyone in this town does . lauren : well , sharon 's particular history is unique . scott : she filled me in on how she discovered that her baby was n't her biological child and that she had a really difficult time giving him up . lauren : [ chuckles ] wow . that 's a very interesting interpretation of what happened . scott : i mean , what 's more fair -- judging sharon on her past or who she is now ? i mean , because who she is now is pretty great , and do n't forget that i have a history of my own , dark places of my own , which sharon accepts ... and likes . lauren : you never -- scott : when i wanted to leave genoa city , you were extremely vocal about me making a life here . so , now that i 'm doing that , you just got to give me some space so i can live it . lauren : but , honey ... you 're right . i - i apologize ... for , uh ... scott : being a mom ? lauren : yeah . scott : come here . lauren : [ chuckles ] just promise me -- promise you 're gon na keep your eyes open . scott : wide open . trust me . ashley : so , how would you feel , graham , if your mother was taking advice and relying on what we perceive to be a total stranger instead of her own family ? graham : well , at least you can see that i have a mother ... ashley : [ chuckles ] graham : ... even if it is wrapped in your usual assumptions about how i control dina 's life . ashley : do n't you ? graham : anyone who knows dina knows that she does n't allow herself to be controlled by anyone . [ chuckles ] you 're not saying it , but you 're thinking , `` unless that person is dina 's lover . `` believe me or do n't . that 's not our relationship . i love your mother , but not in the way you 're presuming . ashley : okay . well , i guess i 'll just have to take your word for that . you know , this whole thing was a lot easier when i was just angry at dina . anger is easy . looking out for my mother 's best interests after everything that 's happened -- let 's just put it this way . i never thought i 'd be wrestling with this issue a year ago . graham : [ chuckles softly ] ashley : and yet i find myself caring about her ... even though i keep seeing that cartoon playing over and over and over again in my head -- you know , the one where the little kid takes the football away right when the other little kid is about to kick it ? i feel like i 'm just setting myself up for disappointment all over again . you think i sound ridiculous . graham : no , no . ashley : yes , you do . graham : no , not at all . fear of disappointment , that 's -- that 's natural . michael : so far , juliet is the only name on leslie 's witness list . that means it 's her word against all of yours . victoria : okay . so , one person against a united team . billy : and i 'm all for that . but should we be rushing in to this ? michael : i think we should get to juliet 's testimony before leslie has a chance to coach her too much . if i can tap in to her emotions , maybe her story will fall apart . billy : is there a chance we 're underestimating juliet and leslie ? victoria : you 're being very cautious . you usually like to dive right in . billy : yeah . i do n't want to dive right in and suddenly find our heads under water . michael : it 's up to you , victoria . whatever you decide , cane 's testimony will be critical . billy : so , all of this hangs on ashby ? michael : pretty much . but i need a decision . do we move on this and , with any luck , blow juliet 's claim out of the water , or do we wait and take our chances ? cane : can i get a soda water , please ? devon : hey , cane . cane : hey . devon : how you doing , man ? i heard about the , uh -- the lawsuit . cane : how did you find out about the lawsuit ? devon : neil told me about it . but i want to hear that you squashed it . cane : well , i thought i had , and i told lily i had , but , uh , apparently , it 's back on . devon : wow . well , that 's quite the accusation . cane : [ chuckles softly ] anyone who knows me knows i would n't use my position to try to get a woman into bed . devon : yeah . i 'd , uh -- i 'd be pretty upset if i were you . cane : i 'm not upset , devon . i 'm terrified , 'cause i do n't know how this is gon na play out , and i do n't know if the truth is even gon na matter . devon : well , the good news is that word has n't spread . but my advice before it does is you be completely straight with my sister . cane : i already have been . devon : i mean , like , 100 % honest with her , 'cause if there 's one thing that can come out in that trial that she does n't know about , i really think it 's best if she hears it from you . okay ? i got to take off , but good luck with everything . cane : thanks . come on ... jack : you say you 're happy here now . what does that mean ? is this all temporary ? dina : son , i never said i 'd stay here permanently . jack : so , what -- do you have an agenda ? you and graham have decided how much time you 're gon na allot to your family before he whisks you off again ? dina : no one tells me where i go and when -- not you , not your sisters , and certainly not graham . jack : i did n't mean to upset you , and i 'm very glad you decided to stay . dina : i just do n't know how many opportunities i still have in this lifetime . i just think it 's time for me to be around the people that i love . jack : and that includes graham . dina : graham has meant more to me than you can possibly understand . i just do n't know how to put it into words . graham : i 'm glad we talked . ashley : yeah . honestly is n't always easy , but it does pay off . graham : of course , that honesty is a one - way street , is n't it ? i mean , you and your brother only see me in the context of your mother . it 's as if you feel time began for me the day i met dina and it 'll end once we 're no longer in each other 's lives . ashley : well , is that how you feel ? graham : nothing could be further from reality . i had a full life before dina entered it , filled with the usual successes and failures and hurt , not unlike the hurt you keep talking about . not that you 'd be interested . ashley : who says i 'm not interested ? juliet : can we talk ? hilary : uh , yeah . here . come with me . what -- what do you need ? juliet : i just came from a meeting with leslie . she is concerned with me being her only witness during depositions . i thought you would make a good character witness . hilary : me ? testify for you ? juliet , i - i hardly know you . juliet : but we 've talked . hilary : briefly . juliet : do i need to remind you about everything you know and how you learned it ? you were the only one i told about what happened with cane before i was fired . hilary : okay , you ca n't -- you ca n't ask me to do this . juliet : there 's no one else . without you , it 's just he said / she said . hilary : well , you 're gon na need to figure something else out . i 'm sorry , okay ? but i ca n't help you any more than i have . juliet : you were the one who pushed me to do this in the first place . hilary : i am rooting for you . trust me . but from this point on , you 're on your own , sweetie . michael : shall i start prepping cane to testify ? victoria : usually my instinct would be to proceed slowly , but not in a case like this . we 're being attacked -- that 's the bottom line -- and we have to defend ourselves . how long before this leaks out and spreads all over on social media ? it 's gon na be detrimental to brash & sassy ! , so we need to -- we need to fight . we need to not wait , and we need to start the discovery process and expose juliet for the liar that she is . lily : jordan . hey . jordan : look , i came to apologize for what hilary 's been putting you through . lily : come on in . why would you owe me an apology ? jordan : i should have listened to the warnings you gave me about her . we 've had a great time , but here lately , i 've seen a side of her that -- that kind of scares me . lily : yeah , she scares me , too , although i would n't tell her that . i just really believed that when she and devon got divorced , we 'd be done with her , but it was n't enough for her to wreck my father and my brother 's life . now she 's coming after me , too , and using cane to do it . [ sighs ] it 's a nightmare . jordan : you 're -- you 're gon na be okay , lily . lily : it just -- it hurts , you know , all of these ugly , unfounded allegations against cane . jordan : you believe in cane . you two have a great marriage . you 'll -- you 'll be okay . [ sighs ] hey , it 's gon na be okay . lily : yeah , but do you believe that ? jordan : yes . lily : really ? jordan : yes , i do . come here . [ next_on ] ashley ( to graham ) : i think we 've made enough wrong assumptions about each other . what do you say about starting over ? phyllis ( to billy ) : victoria 's emotional well - being -- that 's not your problem . victoria ( to michael ) : i just wish i was as confident now as i was going into this . cane ( to lily ) : you 're lucky you have such a good friend .
lily was n't surprised when neil revealed that hilary was helping juliet . lily told neil that cane got juliet to drop the lawsuit . mariah confronted hilary about her involvement in juliet 's lawsuit . hilary decided to take mariah off the story and cover it herself . mariah warned lily that hilary might take the story public . lily threatened to sue hilary for slander . they argued , and jordan prevented lily from physically attacking hilary . lily told jordan that hilary pushed juliet to file the lawsuit . hilary insisted that she only recommended a lawyer to juliet . jordan accused hilary of engineering the lawsuit so she could get an exclusive story , and he stormed off . scott spent the night at sharon 's place and surprised her by making breakfast . scott blew off victor in order to spend more time with sharon . sharon told mariah that she was falling for scott . billy and victoria were angry when cane informed them that he 'd met with juliet . victoria wondered if she could trust cane , because he ignored her instructions and failed to disclose that he almost blew the tokyo deal . lauren shared her concerns about sharon and scott with michael . juliet interrupted michael and lauren 's breakfast and told him about cane 's surprise visit . michael made an unsuccessful attempt to convince leslie that cane 's visit with juliet was n't a big deal . michael told cane that he 'd damaged their case . michael proposed having the judge to interview cane and juliet under oath before the trial , in order to expose weaknesses in juliet 's case . victoria gave michael the go ahead . lauren tried to use sharon 's actions with christian to dissuade scott from dating her . scott revealed that sharon already told him . he 'd decided to judge sharon on the present , not the past . scott asked lauren to let him make his own choices , and she apologized .
<s>[INST] mariah : so , that assignment you gave me -- the lawsuit filed against brash & sassy ! - i did some digging . hilary : and ? mariah : there 's been a filing at the courthouse but no names or allegations yet . hilary : okay . well , keep at it . mariah : i did . hilary : oh . mariah : i have a source . hilary : who ? mariah : well , you may know him . devon . i also know the parties involved -- cane and juliet . hilary : really ? wow . mariah : you knew all about this . i also know you 're the one who advised juliet on what lawyer to hire . you were n't counting on me digging up that little nugget , were you ? lily : hilary is helping juliet ? why am i not surprised ? what woman loves messing with me . neil : you know , i thought you 'd be a lot angrier than this . lily : well , it 's because i know something hilary does n't . juliet is dropping the lawsuit . according to cane , it 's over . victoria : michael would have called if juliet dropped the case . cane : okay . do n't worry . he 's gon na call soon . it 's gon na be official . billy : why are you so positive that juliet changed her mind ? cane : because i went last night and saw her . we hashed the whole thing out . billy : what ? ! victoria : that is the worst possible thing you could have done ! cane : [ sighs ] sharon : scott ? scott : hey . coffee 's on , juice is poured , and , uh , frittata 's in the oven . ashley : no last - minute bon - voyage call from dina ? jack : no . it appears our mother will be staying on in genoa city . ashley : yeah , at the athletic club , i hear . jack : because she has no interest in staying in the family home . ashley : no , she has no interest in leaving graham behind at the hotel . obviously , she 's trying to keep him happy . devon : so , you 're not flying back to paris ? dina : well , i 'm so enjoying my time here with the family that , uh , i see no harm in staying a bit longer . graham : you do n't seem pleased . devon : oh , no . i 'm -- i 'm -- i 'm just surprised . graham : perhaps your new partner is concerned this might alter things . dina : i do n't like the word `` partner . `` devon and neil have bought the company . i merely retain a seat on the board . that 's it , devon . we should make full use of graham . i 'd hate to see his skills go to waste . scott : i forgot about the eggs . sharon : we 'll make more . lily : so , after cane spoke to juliet and he was telling her -- neil : whoa . wait . cane saw her alone ? lily : yeah , i know . victoria and michael wo n't be happy . neil : nor should they , lily . lily : look , i had the same reaction when he first told me , but it worked . he told her that she 's punishing him , me , our family , when , really , it 's the company that she resents . i know it was risky , but , somehow , he got through to her . neil : are you sure ? lily : yeah . cane is confident it 's only a matter of time before the lawsuit is dropped and this is all over . victoria : i told you to stay away from her , and you ignored me , on top of the news that i just got . cane : wait . what news do you have ? victoria : from michael . it came out in the judge 's chambers that you almost blew the deal in tokyo and juliet had to come to your rescue . billy : are you gon na deny that , too ? victoria : you kept us from it , cane . and then you went to see juliet . how am i supposed to trust you ? cane : i am sorry for what happened in tokyo , okay ? it was wrong . but i ca n't change it . i ca n't make up for it . all i can do is just apologize to you and promise you that it will not happen again . that 's all i can do . billy : cane , it already has . victoria : direct order . cane : i had to go to her and try to shut this down . that 's what i had to do . victoria : that 's why we 're paying an attorney . cane : but he has n't managed to stop it , has he ? so i went to her , and it worked , 'cause i told her that i understand why she 's angry and she has every right 'cause of the way she was treated , okay ? but she ca n't accuse me of sexual harassment when it did n't happen , and she agreed . billy : okay . so , hold on a second . what if she 's just saying exactly what you want to hear ? cane : no . no . she called leslie before i left the room . billy : where 's leslie ? and why are we hearing this from you and not juliet 's lawyer or ours ? lauren : have i told you lately how much i love our breakfast conversations ? michael : i 'm sorry . lauren : mmm . michael : just drowning in legalese here . lauren : i understand , believe me . michael : just like i understand why you keep checking your phone . lauren : well , now it 's because -- michael : it 's scott . you 're worried about him . lauren : he did n't come home last night . michael : sweetheart , when your son is a grown man , he may have other places to stay every now and then . lauren : i understand that , but sharon ? really ? michael : why not sharon ? lauren : have you forgotten ... about christian ? that woman essentially stole a child . michael : we both know why you 're zeroing in on this . what happened with scott and sheila has nothing to do with this . juliet : tell your client i do n't want any more surprise visits . michael : why would victoria -- juliet : cane stopped by my room last night . you know how that 's going to look in court , right ? ashley : dina and graham both have suites at the gcac . clearly , she does n't want him to leave her side . that tells us exactly how he rates with her . jack : i have yet to get a real answer from dina about this guy or from anything you 've told me . one thing we do know -- he ca n't be too thrilled that dina 's decided not to go back to paris just yet . ashley : and yet he 's not happy just having her to himself at the hotel . he wants an ocean between her and her children . why ? jack : i hope you are not planning another confrontation . ashley : no . are you kidding ? that did not go very well . i 'm gon na have to find a new approach if i 'm gon na figure this guy out -- what he wants with our mother . devon : dina , if you do n't mind me asking , what talents of graham 's , uh , would you hope to see me use ? dina : well , personally , i find graham to be an invaluable adviser , and i feel quite certain we 'll be able to find a proper place for him within the company . devon : right . well , that 's something that i would have to run by neil , of course . dina : well , of course ! of course ! graham : devon , let me reassure you ... dina has more than enough personal business to keep her busy here in genoa city . she 'll be giving you and your father all the space you need to run the company as you see fit . our only goal is to be supportive . devon : well , that 's -- that 's great to hear , and my goal is to manage all the tools that i have at my disposal to make this venture a success . dina : oh , devon reminds me so much of my granddaughter abby -- all that wonderful drive and special enthusiasm and purpose . devon : i 've always admired abby . she 's a great friend of mine . dina : i remember . devon : and you know what ? i 'm sure she 's thrilled that you 're staying in town . if you 'll excuse me , i 'm ready to take off . graham : sure . dina : well , young man , do talk to neil and keep us posted how things are shaping up with my -- with your -- company . devon : of course . okay . graham : i 'll make sure he follows through . we need to protect your interests . you seem distracted . are you thinking about your talk with jack last night ? dina : i hurt him by not accepting his offer to stay at the house . graham : well , you hardly need me to point this out , but you 're in much better hands with me . dina : i know . [ clears throat ] i really feel i should go see jack and clear the air . graham : just ... do n't let him talk you into anything . dina : i wo n't . hilary : juliet asked me for a recommendation , so i gave her one . mariah : and then you had me dig into the lawsuit , knowing exactly what i would find . hilary : why would i -- mariah : so no one could accuse you of having a stake in this . hilary : the only stake in this is news for my show . and when everything that cane did comes out in court -- oh , news . mariah : nobody has proven that cane did anything . hilary : you know what ? i think you 're a little too emotionally invested . i 'm taking you off the story . i 'll take it from here . mariah : [ chuckles softly ] do you really think that cane cheated on lily and then used his position at brash & sassy ! to get what he wanted from juliet ? hilary : it does n't really matter what i believe . if it 's news , we cover it . and when this lands in court , oh , you are gon na be so sorry that i am the one on the national news feed and not you . mm . mariah : [ softly ] lily . lily : mariah . hey . what 's up ? mariah : you did n't hear it from me , but , um , watch your back . lily : [ scoffs ] okay . that 's cryptic . why are you whispering ? mariah : i 'm at work . you know what juliet 's claiming , right ? lily : how did you find out ? mariah : the news is n't public yet , but that may soon change , and the coverage may not exactly be ... objective . lily : hilary ? mariah : who else ? lily : [ sighs ] thanks for the heads up . damn it . how did i not see this coming ? cane : all right , look -- we 're gon na hear from leslie soon , but , in the meantime , here -- would you like the honor of calling michael and telling him the case is dead ? billy : no , 'cause we do n't know that that 's gon na happen , and michael should be the one telling us that . victoria : i 'll see what he says . michael : no , leslie . emotions are running high , but i 'm not gon na let you blow this out of proportion . now , listen -- hello ? you went to juliet 's hotel , alone ? cane : [ sighs ] victoria : what did leslie say ? michael : what do you think she said ? you just handed her a huge present -- a winning case all wrapped up in a nice , shiny bow . sharon : that was amazing . scott : it 's just eggs . sharon : but you cooked . scott : well , you impress easily . sharon : i assure you that i do not , but this morning i have been impressed by many things . [ cell phone chimes ] scott : from victor . `` where are you ? `` sounds like he does n't appreciate my playing hooky . sharon : ooh , shocker . scott : `` having ... breakfast ... with a ... major rainmaker . sorry . ca n't talk . hit you later . `` send . sharon : ticking off victor newman -- risky . scott : it 's worth it . come here . sharon : so , what else do you cook ? scott : uh , this is pretty much it . sharon : hmm . scott : what ? sharon : i get this is your go - to morning - after menu , is n't it ? scott : uh , some more coffee ? sharon : oh , admit it . i 'm not the first woman you 've cooked this up for . scott : on occasion , perhaps . but ... this is the first time that i 've ever really put my heart into it . michael : you handed juliet 's lawyer a lethal weapon . leslie is gon na paint that visit as a back - channel attempt to pressure juliet into dropping the suit ! cane : that 's not what happened . all i did was go there and appeal to her conscience . billy : no , what you did is turn this from a crisis into an all - out disaster . cane : when i left there last night , juliet was prepared to forget about all this . i do n't know what happened . maybe leslie saw these billable hours evaporate so she decided to double down . billy : you 're gon na blame the lawyer ? that 's not a good idea . victoria : okay , look -- enough . you compromised us by going out on your own , and i am furious right now . but we need solutions , not arguments . i think we should revisit your idea about expediting the discovery phase . cane : wait . what does that mean ? michael : in a civil suit , before the trial begins , all potential witnesses are questioned under oath before the judge is present . cane : you mean depositions ? michael : it 's a chance for all sides to learn what evidence the other side has . cane : well , how is that gon na help us ? victoria : it could expose just how little leslie has to work with . michael : or maybe help convince juliet that her best bet is to settle privately or perhaps even drop the case completely . victoria : michael can grill juliet and make her back up her so - called claims . cane : that means i have to testify , too , right ? victoria : that 's right , especially since you 're the only one who can refute what juliet is claiming . michael : it 's your chance to prove she lied on the record . hilary : lily . lily : i have had it with you . you have officially gone too far . hilary : have n't we had this argument already ? lily : it is one thing to nudge juliet towards filing a lawsuit , but if you go on air with baseless claims about cane , you 'll be the one getting sued . hilary : if cane is innocent ... lily : `` if `` ? hilary : ... then you will have nothing to worry about . if he 's not , then you 'll have bigger problems than me -- a shaky marriage , a shiny new spokesmodel career on the line . ohh . lily : see , you think everyone is as shallow and vapid as you are . i 'm not even thinking about my job . but all of this will be gone after our slander suit . hilary : [ scoffs ] it ai n't slander if it 's true . lily : it 's not true , and you know that . hilary : really ? i mean , you 're not even a little bit suspicious ? because i would think that cane would be entitled to a little something on the side , especially since you cheated on the man . lily : are you that determined to lash out at me that you would drag my family through hell with these lies ? have you even thought about charlie and mattie ? hilary : maybe your husband should have thought about his family before he instructed juliet on how to `` get ahead `` in her career . lily : you are disgusting . hilary : it 's not my problem that you do n't know how to keep your husband satisfied . lily : did you really just say that to me ? ! did you really just say that to me ? ! jordan : how many times do i have to wrestle you two ? hilary : keep that crazy girl away from me . lily : fine . jordan : dang . jack : i was n't expecting you , mother . dina : well , i guess i should have called first . jack : no , you 're always welcome here . i am a little surprised to see you , though . dina : well , i was concerned about the way we left things . jack : you mean when you decided to stay at the hotel suite rather than at home with your family ? dina : well , i hope you understand how much it meant to me -- that invitation . jack : apparently not enough for you to accept my invitation . dina : well , i - i - i think it 's the best decision . jack : you think or graham thinks ? dina : why does it always have to be about graham ? jack : i do n't know , mother . you tell me . dina : it 's not about him . jack : no ? dina : no . jack : then why do i get the feeling that you are not comfortable unless he is constantly at your side ? dina : i depend on him . jack : yes , you 've said as much . and you prefer that to depending on your children . dina : i have no experience depending on my children , just as my children have no experience depending on me . jack : w -- i - is that what this is about ? this is why you ca n't come home ? is it the memories ? dina : memories ? [ voice breaking ] what memories , son ? that house reminds me of all the special moments i could have had and i did n't . and there 's no one to blame ... but me . scott : the next time you think i 've run out on you , you know ... think about it . sharon : i will , because i know better . scott : because i fed you ? sharon : because that 's not the kind of person you are . you know , from the moment we started talking at crimson lights , when you decided to help a poor student who was freaking out over a paper she had to write , there was nothing in it for you , but you decided to help . scott : well , turns out there was something in it for me , after all . sharon : [ chuckles softly ] when dylan left , it was -- it was just very sudden , so it was hard for me to imagine what would be next for me . it was actually easily to think that nothing would ever happen . and then you snuck up on me . scott : like you do with me . i just meant to come home and recuperate for a few weeks and then get back out there , cover more stories , but ... you gave me a good reason to stick around . i 'll call you . sharon : [ chuckles ] scott : bye . jordan : lily , hang on one second . you still think hilary pushed juliet into filing the lawsuit ? lily : ask her if she got a finder 's fee for supplying juliet with a lawyer . jordan : are you kidding ? lily : no . she 'll put a spin on that . she 's great at that . oh , and , by the way , i 'm sorry that you wo n't get a chance at destroying my family . juliet 's dropping the case . cane did n't do any of the things that you 're accusing him of . and , by the way , our marriage is still strong . jordan : is that true ? hilary : about me helping juliet ? okay , please . it 's hardly some conspiracy . the woman asked for a recommendation , and i gave her one . what 's the crime in that ? jordan : and you get a jump on the juicy story . hilary : well , according to lily , it 's a non - story . jordan : that you would have exploited . hilary : i 'm a reporter , okay ? and a case with brash & sassy ! ? what , do you want me to just not do my job ? jordan : depends on how well you do it . hilary : now you 're not making any sense . jordan : no ? hilary : no . jordan : let 's see if i got this right . juliet gets fired , and then , suddenly , she starts talking a lawsuit after you came along , conveniently hooking her up with a lawyer , and then when this thing hits , you get the exclusive . hilary : that is not what happened , okay ? jordan : i 'm pretty sure that 's exactly what happened . you 're hurting billy . you 're hurting victoria . hell , i work for brash & sassy ! you 're hurting me , too . and all for what -- to get some boost in your ratings ? [ sighs ] i hope you 're happy with yourself . [ sighs ] hilary : jordan , stop . billy : could this be a mistake , rushing in to something like a deposition ? victoria : [ sighs ] maybe . michael : with this thing potentially going public , we 're on a ticking clock here . victoria : well , we need to come up with as much ammunition as we can before that happens . michael , has your investigator been able to turn up anything on juliet ? michael : unfortunately , no . juliet is completely clean . her prior consulting clients ca n't say enough good things about her . she 's never made any accusations of this nature or had any ethical breaches . billy : until now . michael : she graduated top of her class . she never got in trouble in college . cane : what about personal problems -- you know , ex - boyfriend , stuff like that ? michael : if you 're hoping she turns out to be a stalker , forget it . there 's nothing like that . victoria : social media ? michael : no drunken photos , no embarrassing posts . [ laughing ] to be honest , she would make a phenomenal witness , especially if this ends up in front of a jury . billy : and what do we got ? the ultimate bad boy . i mean , she 's gon na look like a saint when they start picking apart your past . cane : yeah , well , lucky she 's not accusing you . it would be a lot worse , would n't it ? billy : as opposed to what we 're in right now ? victoria : stop , right now . i am trying my hardest to keep this company solvent , and it 's hard enough to do with you two sniping at each other . michael : if we 're moving up discovery , the two of us need to carve out some time to prepare . we do n't want leslie to catch us with our pants down , figuratively , of course . cane : i am sorry . talking to juliet 's made this worse , and i am -- i 'm sorry . michael , i will -- i will sit down with you and i 'll prep whatever you need from me , but right now , i just -- i need to go and talk to lily and tell her this case is back on . excuse me . [ exhales sharply ] dina : why do you keep thinking there 's a competition between you and graham ? jack : gee . i wonder why , mother . dina : well , there 's not . jack : there 's not ? dina : no . jack : if you believe that , you are in denial . that man is competing for your attention and your affection , and right now , he 's winning . dina : [ chuckling ] oh , i did n't know that i had to make a choice between my son and that man who -- jack : that man who what ? go ahead . finish that . dina : well , it was n't easy . it -- [ sighs ] it was a tough decision to sell the company , and not knowing whether it was the right time or not -- jack : so , graham talked you into that decision ? dina : no , he did n't . he listened and he helped me sort out the realities . jack : what realities ? dina : darling , i am a woman in my 70s , and there are certain facts that go along with that . jack : oh , mother , do n't be morbid . dina : i 'm not being morbid . my sell - by date is a long way off . jack : well , i am counting on that . dina : well , that 's something , darling , i ca n't control . but there 's no reason to worry . jack : yeah . i 'm wondering about that . dina : i was hoping my decision to stay would be a positive one for you . jack : well , you kept repeatedly insisting on going back to paris . dina : well ... i changed my mind . it 's a woman 's prerogative . jack : or is it possible graham agreed to let you change your mind ? dina : graham will do anything that will make me happy , and my spending time with my children and my granddaughter makes me very happy right now . ashley : i 'm not going to belabor this . i 'm not sure what i think i 'm gon na accomplish in this encounter , but now that my mother 's gon na be here a while , i do think there are things that need to be said . graham : um ... should i make this a double vodka ? ashley : you 're always so charming . graham : [ scoffs ] while you are always so ... ashley : not ? graham : [ chuckles softly ] ashley : okay . i guess it 's up to me to somehow rectify our recent animosity and put it behind us , so ... i am sorry , graham , again . graham : that 's what you said ? thank you for translating . ashley : honestly , i never anticipated feeling protective over dina , after everything she 's done to me and my siblings , but she is still my mother , and it makes me uneasy knowing nothing about her constant companion and what you want with her . graham : so , you assumed ? younger man , older woman ... ashley : i do n't care about that , really . that 's your business . i do seem to care about her welfare , however . i would just like to have some kind of peace with the one man who has more access to my mother than anybody , or at least coexist . graham : i mean , i 'm grateful you tried ... even if your heart was n't in it . uh ... stay for a coffee , anyway . [ door closes ] mariah : so , let me guess -- scott went home early and you stayed up all night with the books . sharon : we had a very lovely evening . mariah : [ gasps ] do i detect a certain glow about you ? sharon : he makes me very happy . mariah : good . you deserve that . sharon : and he cooked for me . mariah : edible ? sharon : 5-star . mariah : wow . maybe he really is a keeper . sharon : you know , scott is very different than the other men that i 've been involved with . he 's not rescuing me or protecting me or ... [ sighs ] mariah : he 's wooing you . sharon : and i 'm really falling for him . scott : hi , mom . lauren : hey ! you 're home early . how are things going with victor ? scott : oh , fine . lauren : you know , scott [ sighs ] we never get a chance to catch up anymore , about all sorts of things . scott : that may be a record . lauren : what do you mean ? scott : `` all sorts of things . `` that 's code for `` sharon . `` you want to know where things stand , do n't you ? lauren : you know , honey , you do n't answer to me . date who you want to date . scott : gee . thanks . lauren : just know what you 're getting into . scott : you mean ... do i know that sharon has a past or a history ? i think everyone in this town does . lauren : well , sharon 's particular history is unique . scott : she filled me in on how she discovered that her baby was n't her biological child and that she had a really difficult time giving him up . lauren : [ chuckles ] wow . that 's a very interesting interpretation of what happened . scott : i mean , what 's more fair -- judging sharon on her past or who she is now ? i mean , because who she is now is pretty great , and do n't forget that i have a history of my own , dark places of my own , which sharon accepts ... and likes . lauren : you never -- scott : when i wanted to leave genoa city , you were extremely vocal about me making a life here . so , now that i 'm doing that , you just got to give me some space so i can live it . lauren : but , honey ... you 're right . i - i apologize ... for , uh ... scott : being a mom ? lauren : yeah . scott : come here . lauren : [ chuckles ] just promise me -- promise you 're gon na keep your eyes open . scott : wide open . trust me . ashley : so , how would you feel , graham , if your mother was taking advice and relying on what we perceive to be a total stranger instead of her own family ? graham : well , at least you can see that i have a mother ... ashley : [ chuckles ] graham : ... even if it is wrapped in your usual assumptions about how i control dina 's life . ashley : do n't you ? graham : anyone who knows dina knows that she does n't allow herself to be controlled by anyone . [ chuckles ] you 're not saying it , but you 're thinking , `` unless that person is dina 's lover . `` believe me or do n't . that 's not our relationship . i love your mother , but not in the way you 're presuming . ashley : okay . well , i guess i 'll just have to take your word for that . you know , this whole thing was a lot easier when i was just angry at dina . anger is easy . looking out for my mother 's best interests after everything that 's happened -- let 's just put it this way . i never thought i 'd be wrestling with this issue a year ago . graham : [ chuckles softly ] ashley : and yet i find myself caring about her ... even though i keep seeing that cartoon playing over and over and over again in my head -- you know , the one where the little kid takes the football away right when the other little kid is about to kick it ? i feel like i 'm just setting myself up for disappointment all over again . you think i sound ridiculous . graham : no , no . ashley : yes , you do . graham : no , not at all . fear of disappointment , that 's -- that 's natural . michael : so far , juliet is the only name on leslie 's witness list . that means it 's her word against all of yours . victoria : okay . so , one person against a united team . billy : and i 'm all for that . but should we be rushing in to this ? michael : i think we should get to juliet 's testimony before leslie has a chance to coach her too much . if i can tap in to her emotions , maybe her story will fall apart . billy : is there a chance we 're underestimating juliet and leslie ? victoria : you 're being very cautious . you usually like to dive right in . billy : yeah . i do n't want to dive right in and suddenly find our heads under water . michael : it 's up to you , victoria . whatever you decide , cane 's testimony will be critical . billy : so , all of this hangs on ashby ? michael : pretty much . but i need a decision . do we move on this and , with any luck , blow juliet 's claim out of the water , or do we wait and take our chances ? cane : can i get a soda water , please ? devon : hey , cane . cane : hey . devon : how you doing , man ? i heard about the , uh -- the lawsuit . cane : how did you find out about the lawsuit ? devon : neil told me about it . but i want to hear that you squashed it . cane : well , i thought i had , and i told lily i had , but , uh , apparently , it 's back on . devon : wow . well , that 's quite the accusation . cane : [ chuckles softly ] anyone who knows me knows i would n't use my position to try to get a woman into bed . devon : yeah . i 'd , uh -- i 'd be pretty upset if i were you . cane : i 'm not upset , devon . i 'm terrified , 'cause i do n't know how this is gon na play out , and i do n't know if the truth is even gon na matter . devon : well , the good news is that word has n't spread . but my advice before it does is you be completely straight with my sister . cane : i already have been . devon : i mean , like , 100 % honest with her , 'cause if there 's one thing that can come out in that trial that she does n't know about , i really think it 's best if she hears it from you . okay ? i got to take off , but good luck with everything . cane : thanks . come on ... jack : you say you 're happy here now . what does that mean ? is this all temporary ? dina : son , i never said i 'd stay here permanently . jack : so , what -- do you have an agenda ? you and graham have decided how much time you 're gon na allot to your family before he whisks you off again ? dina : no one tells me where i go and when -- not you , not your sisters , and certainly not graham . jack : i did n't mean to upset you , and i 'm very glad you decided to stay . dina : i just do n't know how many opportunities i still have in this lifetime . i just think it 's time for me to be around the people that i love . jack : and that includes graham . dina : graham has meant more to me than you can possibly understand . i just do n't know how to put it into words . graham : i 'm glad we talked . ashley : yeah . honestly is n't always easy , but it does pay off . graham : of course , that honesty is a one - way street , is n't it ? i mean , you and your brother only see me in the context of your mother . it 's as if you feel time began for me the day i met dina and it 'll end once we 're no longer in each other 's lives . ashley : well , is that how you feel ? graham : nothing could be further from reality . i had a full life before dina entered it , filled with the usual successes and failures and hurt , not unlike the hurt you keep talking about . not that you 'd be interested . ashley : who says i 'm not interested ? juliet : can we talk ? hilary : uh , yeah . here . come with me . what -- what do you need ? juliet : i just came from a meeting with leslie . she is concerned with me being her only witness during depositions . i thought you would make a good character witness . hilary : me ? testify for you ? juliet , i - i hardly know you . juliet : but we 've talked . hilary : briefly . juliet : do i need to remind you about everything you know and how you learned it ? you were the only one i told about what happened with cane before i was fired . hilary : okay , you ca n't -- you ca n't ask me to do this . juliet : there 's no one else . without you , it 's just he said / she said . hilary : well , you 're gon na need to figure something else out . i 'm sorry , okay ? but i ca n't help you any more than i have . juliet : you were the one who pushed me to do this in the first place . hilary : i am rooting for you . trust me . but from this point on , you 're on your own , sweetie . michael : shall i start prepping cane to testify ? victoria : usually my instinct would be to proceed slowly , but not in a case like this . we 're being attacked -- that 's the bottom line -- and we have to defend ourselves . how long before this leaks out and spreads all over on social media ? it 's gon na be detrimental to brash & sassy ! , so we need to -- we need to fight . we need to not wait , and we need to start the discovery process and expose juliet for the liar that she is . lily : jordan . hey . jordan : look , i came to apologize for what hilary 's been putting you through . lily : come on in . why would you owe me an apology ? jordan : i should have listened to the warnings you gave me about her . we 've had a great time , but here lately , i 've seen a side of her that -- that kind of scares me . lily : yeah , she scares me , too , although i would n't tell her that . i just really believed that when she and devon got divorced , we 'd be done with her , but it was n't enough for her to wreck my father and my brother 's life . now she 's coming after me , too , and using cane to do it .

[ margo sighs ] [ scene_break ] faith : sorry i was so nasty before . holden : why were you ? faith : 'cause i do n't want mom going out with mike anymore . holden : well , your mom and i -- we 're not really together anymore , so it kind of makes sense that she would want a new relationship . faith : i think it 's because you slept with carly . holden : yeah , that would , uh -- that would definitely have something to do with it . faith : and now you 're yelling and trying to hurt each other . holden : we have made a mess of things , but i promise you , honey , we 're going to try to fix it . faith : but you ca n't fix anything with fighting . is n't that what you always tell natalie and me ? and it makes natalie and ethan so sad . holden : what about you ? does it make you sad ? faith : when you think you 're going to lose , you pretend like you 're not . grandmother calls it bluffing . holden : honey , you know that you never have to bluff with me . faith : try not to fight anymore , okay ? holden : okay . [ scene_break ] mike : lily , i believe in this project . otherwise , i would n't be here . i would have walked away when the other investor pulled out . lily : well , why did n't you say that in front of paul ? mike : because i do n't feel comfortable weighing in on what you do with your money . lily : paul seemed pretty desperate . mike : yeah , and if you have some more questions , maybe you should talk to him again . lily : you 're right . i do need more answers , but not from paul . mike : are you ready to order ? lily : mike , do you mind if we take a rain check on lunch ? i love being here with you . it 's just that today has been -- mike : bad timing , yeah , all the way around . i should probably get back to the site anyway . lily : please do n't take this the wrong way . mike : lily , i -- i am open to anything you want . but you need to decide what that is .

[ scene_break ] holden : that was a short date . lily : i was n't really in the mood , especially after paul showed up . holden : yeah , he came by here . i told him you were having lunch . i hope i did n't ruin anything for you . lily : did he tell you what he wanted ? holden : no . he said that it was important . lily : he wants me to give him a loan to help with the project at your mother 's farm . holden : are you going to give it to him ? lily : i do n't know . i mean , did you read that article in the `` intruder `` today ? holden : i did . it did n't make the project sound very promising . lily : it makes paul sound like he 's on some mission impossible -- decontaminating countless acres of land . but on the other hand , it 's your mother 's farm . i mean , we grew up there . our lives are in that land . do n't you feel that way ? holden : of course i do . lily : well , should n't we do everything we can ? i mean , what about your mother ? she could lose her home . holden : lily , after everything we 've been through , i would n't think that you would even care . lily : all my children are all snyder 's . that land is their legacy . and it 's my past . most of which i do n't ever want to forget . holden : okay , so , you want me to tell you what i think you should do ? what concerns you most ? lily : emma . holden : well , she could lose the farm , but , you know , she 'll always have a place to live . i 'll help her out with that . lily : and the land ? holden : it 'll heal over time . lily : but not in time to save the development . holden : lily , i think we need to be realistic here . you ca n't throw good money into a project that will , in all likelihood , fail . lily : so i should n't help . holden : i do n't think so . i think it 's is a lost cause . [ scene_break ] paul : i 'm not so worried about lily . i think she 's going to come through . barbara : well , lily does have disposable income , and she loves emma and that farm . how 's meg ? paul : she 's all right . she 's planning some kind of a surprise . barbara : really ? paul : yeah . barbara : any idea what ? paul : no , but i think it might have something to do with her cooking . barbara : meg can cook ? paul : no , not at all . in fact , she keeps this up , we 're both going to starve to death before our first anniversary . barbara : and yet , you still smile . paul : yeah . she does make me smile . barbara : is that so surprising , paul ? paul : a little bit . i mean , i 've seen happy lives in catalogs , but i did n't think i could order one for myself . [ cell phone rings ] paul : there 's lily . hello ? lily : hi , paul . listen , i -- i 've given this a lot of thought , but i 'm very sorry . i ca n't give you that loan . paul : okay . thanks for getting back to me so quickly . barbara : she turned you down ? paul : yeah . i do n't know , maybe the -- the thing in the newspaper made it seem like this was a lose - lose situation . barbara : anyone else you can turn to ? well , then there 's only one thing left to do . pull out of the deal and tell meg why .

[ scene_break ] margo : police headquarters is not my living room , nor is it the bedroom , casey . the decisions that i make are based on what is right for my jurisdiction , not based on some sentimental whim , which is more than i can say about you . emily : why ca n't you just admit that you messed up ? margo : and why could n't you stay out of it ? emily : because you messed with my niece .

[ emily laughs ] casey : yeah , how -- how did you do that , by the way ? the mayor 's a busy guy . how do you even know him ? emily : he 's the mayor , casey . everybody knows the mayor . casey : not well enough to have their personal number and call them by their first name . i -- was he one of your -- he was . he was one of your -- emily : the past is the past , case . let 's not go there .

meg is planning a surprise for paul , but he is a bit preoccupied when he sees emily 's front - page story on the farm project . emily is pleased with herself , as casey tells her that his mother actually invited her for dinner , but emily thinks it is n't a good idea since inherently they all do n't like each other so why push it . margo finds dani looking through her files and is none to happy . derek tells paul that he misrepresented himself when he borrowed the money and he wants it back now . holden does n't want to help lily out when her babysitter backs out because she is going to lunch with mike ; a fight ensues , as the kids hear it . dani tries to explain that she has authorization to be there , but margo orders her out . emma helps meg plan her surprise , as she deals with morning sickness . paul and derek do n't agree and paul pleads with him to let him make a profit , but derek wo n't hear of it and tells him that he owes him his money now or else . when holden and lily see how the children react to their fighting , they apologize to one another , and holden offers to stay with the children while she goes out with mike . dani complains to casey and emily about margo , as casey promises to help ; casey goes to his dad , who thinks that dani should be allowed at the station and agrees to talk with margo . lily is frazzled when she meets mike and he starts to question if she is there to make holden jealous ; he wonders if she is using him ; lily promises that she is not doing that . paul comes looking for lily , but he finds holden instead , who is more then happy to send paul to the lakeview looking for lily . tom speaks with margo about dani , who is not pleased to hear casey did emily and dani 's bidding for them . faith pretends that the fighting only upsets natalie and ethan , but she asks holden to try to get along with her mom from now on . paul finds lily and asks her to float him the loan , as she offered to do so before . lily needs to think about it , as mike is unsure what to tell her so lily needs to find someone who can work through this with her . a furious margo goes to see casey , emily and dani and lets her opinion be known on what she thought of their tactics . when things turn personal , emily kicks margo out . margo tells dani she is not welcome in her station , as she leaves . emily makes a call because of this . lily talks with holden about the project and giving paul money and he advises her against it in the end even though they considered all their options . paul tells barbara that he thinks lily can bail him out , but a call from lily soon proves he was wrong about that assumption . paul realizes he is out of options , but is worried about what this will do to meg because he gave her his word . meg worries about if it is too soon to tell paul about the baby because what if something happens . emma advises her to rely and depend on her husband and to share all things with him . lily asks holden to stay for lunch , as the kids are thrilled to see this . emily , dani and the mayor show up at the station and margo is ‘forced ' to allow dani to work there . casey wonders about emily 's relationship with the mayor after he sees how much clout she had with him . he realizes he was probably her client , but emily wo n't say . margo tells tom what happened , who is surprised to see emily has that much clout with the mayor ; this leads margo to wonder what emily has done to get that close with the mayor . paul prepares to tell meg the truth when she beats him to the punch and surprises him with news that she is pregnant . paul is very emotional , as he reacts to the thrilling news ; he makes a split decision not to tell meg what has happened .

[ lily chuckles ] lily : i do n't usually dress like this when i 'm having lunch with my mother . mike : what , and holden just happened to show up as you were heading out the door ? lily : it was n't exactly a coincidence , but we worked it out , and now i 'm here with you . mike : really ? or are you just hoping that someone will see us together and run back to holden with a report ? lily : i would n't do that . mike : you already have , lily . and i understand . i do . holden cheated on you , and you want to get some of your own back -- rub his face in it a little bit . lily : you think i 'm using you ? mike : until just now , i thought we might be building something here . lily : we are . mike : well , we ca n't do that when you 're still emotionally wrapped up in someone else .

[ mike sighs ] mike : look , lily , you 're leaving a door open for yourself , which maybe makes sense for you , but i am starting to get involved here , and if you end up back together with holden , where does that leave me ? lily : we wo n't . we wo n't . mike : are you positive ? [ mike sighs ] mike : `` yes `` was the answer that i was looking for . lily : whatever leftover feelings i have for holden , that 's just habit . what i have with you now -- that 's what i want . mike : me too , which is why i want to make sure our timing is right . i do n't want to end up falling for you , lily , and watch you walk back to holden . paul : hi . sorry to interrupt , but , lily , i need to speak with you . lily : paul , we 're kind of in the middle of something right now . can -- can i talk to you later ? paul : i 'm afraid it ca n't wait . mike : i 'll give you two some privacy . paul : no , mike , actually , it 'd be great if you could just stay . lily : what -- what is this about ? paul : lily , i was hoping that your offer to lend me some money was still open . hey , steve ! lily : you still need money for the development at the farm ? i thought that you had another source . paul : well , i did , but it fell through , and there have been some added expenses . lily : and if i lend you this money -- paul : well , then i can finish the cleanup and then move on with the process and hopefully get you a nice , healthy return on your investment . lily : i 'm not concerned about that . emma -- i mean , is this going to protect her property ? paul : i hope so . mike will fill you in on all the details . mike : no . um , no . i do n't feel comfortable doing that . lily : why ? you 're the manager on this . i mean , who would know better than you ? mike : yeah , but i 'm -- i 'm paul 's employee and i 'm your friend , and i just -- i 'm too close to both sides of the situation to give you an objective opinion . paul : lily , will you lend me the money ? lily : i need to think about it , paul . paul : of course . let me know what you decide . enjoy your lunch . [ lily sighs ] lily : tell me why you no longer believe in this project . [ mike sighs ] [ scene_break ] emily : well ? what do you think ? dani : i wish i was as brave as you are . emily : well , all i did was write an article . dani : yeah , an article that 's bound to make a whole lot of people angry , but you wrote it anyway . emily : oh , please . dani , you have no idea the rage i face from the people in this town . it 's given me quite a thick skin . dani : emily , you are like this gold standard for working women . i mean , you 're aggressive and you 're beautiful , and you are sexy enough to snag yourself a hot , young stud . emily : no , i just happened to be the first woman to see casey for a man and -- and not as a boy . if he happens to find that sexy , then so -- hey . casey : hey . i , uh , talked to my dad . dani : and ? casey : and he agrees that you should finish your assignment . you know , he went over to the police station to talk to my mom . dani : oh , casey , you are such a doll ! casey : oh , i know i am ! dani : thank you ! casey : no problem .

[ margo sighs ] [ scene_break ] faith : sorry i was so nasty before . holden : why were you ? faith : 'cause i do n't want mom going out with mike anymore . holden : well , your mom and i -- we 're not really together anymore , so it kind of makes sense that she would want a new relationship . faith : i think it 's because you slept with carly . holden : yeah , that would , uh -- that would definitely have something to do with it . faith : and now you 're yelling and trying to hurt each other . holden : we have made a mess of things , but i promise you , honey , we 're going to try to fix it . faith : but you ca n't fix anything with fighting . is n't that what you always tell natalie and me ? and it makes natalie and ethan so sad . holden : what about you ? does it make you sad ? faith : when you think you 're going to lose , you pretend like you 're not . grandmother calls it bluffing . holden : honey , you know that you never have to bluff with me . faith : try not to fight anymore , okay ? holden : okay . [ scene_break ] mike : lily , i believe in this project . otherwise , i would n't be here . i would have walked away when the other investor pulled out . lily : well , why did n't you say that in front of paul ? mike : because i do n't feel comfortable weighing in on what you do with your money . lily : paul seemed pretty desperate . mike : yeah , and if you have some more questions , maybe you should talk to him again . lily : you 're right . i do need more answers , but not from paul . mike : are you ready to order ? lily : mike , do you mind if we take a rain check on lunch ? i love being here with you . it 's just that today has been -- mike : bad timing , yeah , all the way around . i should probably get back to the site anyway . lily : please do n't take this the wrong way . mike : lily , i -- i am open to anything you want . but you need to decide what that is . [ scene_break ] emily : will you stop ? do n't be intimidated . you go in there and you do your job . dani : okay . casey : yes , what 's the worst my mom can do ? dani : um , get me fired . casey : yeah , that 's pretty bad . emily : that 's not going to happen . will you just -- tom smoothed things over . you 're going to be fine . dani : i am . you 're right . uh , no matter what margo throws at me , i am ready . margo : i can not believe that you three thought that you were going to play some sort of endgame around me . you are so dead wrong . casey , your father is just barely recovered from heart surgery . you want to talk to about one of my decisions , you go to him to discuss it ? what are you thinking ? casey : i was -- margo : and you , you know , you 're just freshly back in town , so i 'm going to chalk up your actions to being too green to know the difference . dani : i kind of -- margo : but you . emily : oh god , me , it 's my fault . go ahead . margo : casey never would have taken these steps if you had n't encouraged him . casey : no , i make my own decisions , mom . and so lay off emily . and , as a matter of fact , lay off dani , too . you were wrong . margo : dani had no right to set up shop in my station without clearing it with me . casey : oh , do n't pretend like this is about procedure . bottom line is you do n't like emily and anyone related to her . [ scene_break ] holden : that was a short date . lily : i was n't really in the mood , especially after paul showed up . holden : yeah , he came by here . i told him you were having lunch . i hope i did n't ruin anything for you . lily : did he tell you what he wanted ? holden : no . he said that it was important . lily : he wants me to give him a loan to help with the project at your mother 's farm . holden : are you going to give it to him ? lily : i do n't know . i mean , did you read that article in the `` intruder `` today ? holden : i did . it did n't make the project sound very promising . lily : it makes paul sound like he 's on some mission impossible -- decontaminating countless acres of land . but on the other hand , it 's your mother 's farm . i mean , we grew up there . our lives are in that land . do n't you feel that way ? holden : of course i do . lily : well , should n't we do everything we can ? i mean , what about your mother ? she could lose her home . holden : lily , after everything we 've been through , i would n't think that you would even care . lily : all my children are all snyder 's . that land is their legacy . and it 's my past . most of which i do n't ever want to forget . holden : okay , so , you want me to tell you what i think you should do ? what concerns you most ? lily : emma . holden : well , she could lose the farm , but , you know , she 'll always have a place to live . i 'll help her out with that . lily : and the land ? holden : it 'll heal over time . lily : but not in time to save the development . holden : lily , i think we need to be realistic here . you ca n't throw good money into a project that will , in all likelihood , fail . lily : so i should n't help . holden : i do n't think so . i think it 's is a lost cause .

[ scene_break ] margo : police headquarters is not my living room , nor is it the bedroom , casey . the decisions that i make are based on what is right for my jurisdiction , not based on some sentimental whim , which is more than i can say about you . emily : why ca n't you just admit that you messed up ? margo : and why could n't you stay out of it ? emily : because you messed with my niece . [ margo laughs ] margo : you used my son and my husband to gain influence with people -- emily : excuse me , i have plenty of influence in this town . i 'm the editor of this newspaper , in case you have n't noticed . margo : oh , that 's just your latest profession , though , is n't it ? emily : get out of my office , now . margo : here 's your paperwork . but , dani , i decide who works in my station and who does n't . and i 've decided that you 're out . dani : okay , but my boss is -- margo : well , your boss -- i do n't answer to your boss . i answer to my boss , who 's the mayor . you have a problem , you take it up with him . emily : you asked for it , margo . margo : well , mr. mayor , very nice to see you . mayor : and a pleasure , as always , margo . i was just passing by , and i wanted to come in and discuss a new project the city is compiling on crime statistics . margo : yes . mayor : do you know -- i 'm sorry . do you know ms. andropoulos and ms. stewart ? margo : we 've met . mayor : well , as i was saying , i was conducting an interview with my friend emily here for her paper , and i heard about ms. andropoulos 's project . can you imagine how much her statistics will aid in fighting crime in our town ? margo : boggles the mind , sir . mayor : well , it 's great to know i can count on my chief of detectives to give the project her full cooperation . margo : absolutely . i 'll do whatever i can to comply . mayor : excellent . well , then , uh , let 's put ms. andropoulos to work . is there anything you need ? dani : no , i think the chief has a full list of files i 'll be reviewing . mayor : well , it looks like we 're all up to speed . margo : oh , faster than the mind can imagine . mayor : great . my best to tom . margo : yes . mayor : uh , emily , are you staying ? emily : uh , you know what ? i 'll walk you out . i believe my work here is done . emily : you should have seen the look on your mother 's face when she walked out and saw me and dani standing with the mayor . i 'm telling you , i do n't know how she kept it all together . it was priceless . what else was she going to do ? i was standing with the mayor .

brooke : well , it 's just a way to pass the time . liam : okay . i 'm gon na let you guys -- hope : no , no , no . no , liam , stay . i mean , he 's really good at puzzles . after all , i -- i kind of am one . liam : i think you 're more of an open book than a puzzle . does this -- does this go ... yeah . donna : [ shrieks ] katie : ahh . hope : see ? what did i tell you ? donna : [ chuckles ] liam : so , what is this place ? donna : oh , our dad took us here on vacation one time . katie : what ? brooke : he did not . katie : no . dad -- [ sighs ] dad was never around for any of our vacations . donna : what ? no . i totally remember him talking about this place . katie : well , that 's not the same thing . donna : okay . i guess i 'm wrong . heh ... do n't you ever tell yourself stories about life when you were kids , you know ? and i guess at one point i just decided to remember things better than they were . brooke : yeah , i do that sometimes . who wants to remember how bad the bad times were ? hope : but what if that 's the only way you can remember the good times ? i mean , being pregnant with beth was the happiest time of my life . i was never more in love . look , i -- i know you want me to forget her and move on , but ... katie : no . hope , we do n't want that . brooke : you and liam have been through something terrible . and we 're just trying to help . we do n't really know how . but if you 're feeling bitter or angry and you just want to get it off your chest , then go right ahead . i mean , we all understand . to most , he 's phil mickelson ... hope : i do n't know what you want me to say . brooke : honey , just say what 's true . what you 're feeling . hope : how ? i mean , i can tell you i 'm sad . that much is true . but it goes so much deeper than that . i do n't even know how i 'm feeling . and -- and then when i do feel something , i do n't even think it 's right . katie : it does n't have to be right . i mean [ sighs ] we 're all here not because of -- of some puzzle , but we 're here because of you , because we want to help . and so ... say something . say nothing . it does n't matter . because we 're here . liam : i mean , i -- i do n't have a mom or -- or aunts and uncles to tell me everything 's okay , but , uh , honestly , i do n't think i 'd believe them even if i did . i failed you . and do n't -- do n't tell me it 's not my fault . i was n't there for you the night our daughter died . i should 've been there . i promised to be there , and i was n't , and ... i 'm so sorry . i 'm really sorry . sally : just remember we are nearby . wyatt : and available to babysit . sally : if we do n't have to be a good influence . just an okay influence . wyatt : yeah . so - so . sally : mm - hmm . steffy : i do n't need my girls on social media with new tattoos . wyatt : what ? [ laughs ] who said anything about social media ? steffy : if i ever need a babysitter -- and my babysitter 's not available -- then i 'll be calling you . wyatt : all right . sally : well , thank you for letting us take a peek at the princesses . wyatt : yeah . hey , um ... [ clears throat ] can i , uh ... can i ask you something ? sally : you know , i 'm gon na -- i 'm gon na out to -- wyatt : no , no , no . i -- it 's ... [ scoffs ] is my brother all right ? like , i j -- i ca n't tell anymore . and obviously you 've seen him , you 've -- you 've talked to him . steffy : yeah . yeah , i have . he 's beating himself up , just like hope . `` if only i could do this differently , `` or , `` if i did this , `` or -- you know , just ... wyatt : i mean , a conscience is a good thing to have , except when it turns into obsession . steffy : he 'll be okay . i 'm keeping a respectful distance . i do n't want phoebe to feel like salt in their wound . xander : so , who 's flo ? zoe : let 's just call her a person of interest . xander : [ scoffs ] you and these american cop shows , honestly . zoe : yeah , but my hunch was right . that key that my dad left behind at work was a spare to his apartment . xander : so why do you think he was so cagey about giving you the address ? zoe : well , that mystery 's solved . but now there 's another one . xander : what , he did n't want you seeing how modestly he was living ? zoe : no . i mean , modest was probably the right word for it , but it 's actually a respectable place . you know , just like one of those average , fully- furnished , cookie - cutter apartments you see everywhere . xander : so obviously you let yourself in . zoe : okay , but would n't you ? granted , i did n't know what i was looking for . i never knew why he came to l.a. , and i still do n't know why he left . but maybe i 'm starting to . xander : because of this flo person ? zoe : i mean , she 's young , and she 's pretty , and she was living with my dad until ... [ sighs ] well , that 's what i do n't know . yet . okay , max ... time to help mrs . tyler xander : your father was never home . zoe : [ sighs ] xander : maybe he was just subletting a room . zoe : there was only one bedroom . xander : oh . zoe : yeah . i mean , she was his type . to be fair , she 's probably any man 's type . okay . down , boy . xander : mm . yeah . sorry . zoe : mm - hmm . anyway , whatever 's been going on with my dad , she knows . she 's just not saying it . xander : i 'm having trouble picturing this . so you just let yourself into her apartment and -- zoe : my father 's . my dad 's allowing her to live there . so she says . even though she still lies in vegas ? which does not add up . xander : yeah , but , still , i mean , for now she 's staying there , so you , a total stranger , just let yourself in and then , what , the two of you had a friendly chat ? zoe : okay , she was n't home when i got there . then she was . and she was n't unfriendly . i mean , she did say that she was gon na call the police , but then i got the impression that she was bluffing , and she found out who i was , and , of course , everything changed . xander : for the better ? zoe : a little bit yes , a little bit no . she got very circumspect . like , i 'd ask her if she knew why my father left for london , and then she would say something like , `` why do n't you ask him ? `` xander : maybe they had a bad breakup ? zoe : yeah , but i just did n't get that breakup vibe from her . she likes my dad . they actually met at the casino in vegas . she works there , or she did . honestly , i 'm not sure , because she seemed a bit lost . and then this odd thing happened when i had asked if she noticed a change in him . because i did . but i just connect it back to that night on catalina when hope lost her baby . i just thought she might have seen a difference in him , too . so , what did she say ? zoe : `` i 'm sorry . `` xander : for what ? zoe : that , i have yet to find out . steffy : i called her `` feebs . `` my sister . your namesake . we 'll see if that happens with you . you really are like a fairy - tale princess . the king and queen are searching for you . but you 're right here . safe with me . and that 's where you 're gon na stay . donna : maybe this was n't the best idea i ever had . hope : stop . brooke : stop what , honey ? hope : just stop thinking that everything you 're doing is wrong . all this ... what you 're doing , all of you , it 's -- it 's beautiful . and , liam ... sweetheart , you know -- you know that you could never fail me . liam : you and i both know that i have . more than once . hope : well , i knew you never stopped loving me . and maybe we just were n't ready until now . maybe we needed to be stronger and wiser . and things sometimes do turn out for the best . except for what happened to beth . i 'll never understand why god took her from us , but i think i 'm beginning to understand that there is something -- there is something that -- that can help me go on . katie : what is it ? can you talk about it ? hope : um ... well , i went over to steffy 's house to welcome her new daughter . because , you know , we 're still family . and i had to accept that . i did n't want it to poison me with jealousy or resentment . so i went over there , and ... i did n't know how i 'd react . you know , i - i thought , `` what if i run out of there screaming ? what if i break down crying ? `` liam : you were perfect . hope : no . she was . steffy put phoebe in my arms , and it was like electricity just went all through my body to my heart , which has felt dead for so long . and it 's something about her . it 's something in her eyes , and when she laughs , when she looks at her , and her smell , and how she holds my hands , it just ... this girl whose mother did n't want her makes me feel like a mother . you know , i am so happy for steffy and for kelly and for you , too , liam . and for me , you know , i did n't -- i did n't have much left inside of me . until that moment . and it 's -- it 's hard to explain , because it feels so much bigger than me , but ... i think phoebe came into my life to give me back hope . liam : [ sighs ]Summarize.[/INST]katie brings breakfast to the cabin and a jigsaw puzzle which she dumps on a table for all to sit around and put together . brooke tells hope to just be herself . donna and katie will be there for her . as they progress liam comes in and starts to leave but hope tells him to stay , he 's good at puzzles . zoe walks in on xander during a workout and he is not quite dressed yet . that 's okay with her . she fills him in on going to her dad 's apartment and finding a flo , but she still did not get any answers of why her dad came here for only a couple of months and now has taken off again with no word or warning . wyatt and sally drop in on steffy and they talk about the adoption .. that it was taylor that actually found the baby through her contacts even though steffy was not sure she was ready yet . how it feels so right .</s>

[ previously_on ] abby : i just got another call . valuables are missing from a guest 's room . we need to call the police . chance : someone installed a back door into your wi - fi system , allowing them remote access to any device connected to your wi - fi . abby : you used the hotel security system to spy on me and everyone else who stepped foot in this hotel . take your lack of conscience and get the hell out of here . chance : i 've been thinking more about the robberies -- about how the thief got away totally clean three different times . abby : oh , god . chance : i 'm so sorry . abby : oh , no , i 'm sorry . no . uh ... theo : i just feel like both of us could use some space . am i wrong ? mariah : summer . summer : hi . mariah : i was afraid i might run in to you here . summer : oh , are n't you sweet ? mariah : is kyle here ? i brought him a gift to celebrate his new position . summer : oh . well , i have a new position , too . mariah : [ softly ] i wonder what that is . summer : i 'm sorry . what was that ? mariah : is he here ? summer : uh , no . he 's actually not here right now , but i 'd be happy to deliver that to him when he gets back . mariah : actually , you know what ? i 'm sure you 're busy , so i 'd rather do it myself . summer : no . i 'm really not busy . i 'd be happy to . mariah : i bet you would . i just do n't want to bother you . i 'm sure you have better things to do , like posting selfies of you sucking face with your boyfriend . summer : okay . well , not that it 's any of your business , but , um , theo and i actually broke up . mariah : are you serious ? summer : oh , yeah , no . that 's right , 'cause now you care about me . mariah : no , no , no . i don't . i care about kyle . and a single summer is a dangerous summer . abby : chance ... i know what this must look like . chance : do you ? abby : no , but you are 100 % wrong . chance : do you mind if i venture a guess ? some other detective somewhere might see you with a haul like this and assume that you 've been caught red - handed , that you were the mastermind behind every single one of the heists here at your own hotel . abby : but do n't i get a chance to explain my side of the story ? chance : oh , i 'm waiting . abby : despite appearances to the contrary ... i am not a thief . chance : mm . devon : is that a map to where my money ended up ? amanda : [ sighs ] you should know better than to sneak up on people . devon : well , maybe i should start stalking you . amanda : is that a threat ? devon : or i can hire an investigator , 'cause you 're obviously hiding something with the way you just closed your laptop when i walked up . additional sponsorship summer : mariah , i am -- i am so done with your immature and ridiculous insinuations . i work with kyle . we 're friends . we 're in a really good place right now , but , most importantly ... he 's married . mariah : look , summer , i - i 'm just looking out for my friend . summer : so , if you were really kyle 's friend , i think you would know that he would never cross that line , so not only are you just insulting me , but you 're actually being downright rude to your bestie . just because theo and i are taking a break does n't mean that y -- mariah : wait . rewind . a couple of minutes ago , you just said that you two had broken up . now you 're saying that you 're on a break . are you confused ? summer : it 's -- it 's complicated . and i 'm sorry . i do n't owe you an explanation . this was between me and theo . mariah : were you guys ever even serious about each other , or was he just a way to make kyle jealous ? were n't you just using him until you could figure out a scheme to et you and kyle back together ? did theo find out the truth ? summer : oh , wow . [ sighs ] well , um , you know , i know that you 're -- you 're cynical and you 're jaded , mariah , and you try to convince the world that emotions are just for suckers -- well , except for your own , of course -- but the thing is is that the rest of us , the people that you do n't -- you do n't like or even respect -- we have actual feelings . and when our hearts break , it 's real . it 's not just some dumb metaphor . and i can promise you that none of us are living our lives for your entertainment . amanda : you really need to stop jumping to conclusions . i closed my laptop because i am working and my clients rely on my discretion . i would be just as scrupulous with your information if you were to hire me . devon : i 'd never hire you . amanda : is there some specific reason why you are here ? because otherwise -- devon : i thought i made it clear -- i want my money . amanda : i thought i made it clear that i do n't have it . i was played just like you . devon : no , it was nothing like me , okay ? you scammed me by playing on my emotions , and i got caught between my head and my heart . so , what 's your excuse ? you do n't have one , 'cause you 're too gifted and -- and smart and talented to get tricked like me . so , that says to me that you 're in on it . amanda : i 've told you a dozen times that i had nothing to do with colin 's scam , but here you are . you are still hounding me . so , do i need to file a restraining order ? devon : hey , you can do whatever you think you need to do . amanda : no . i 'm -- i 'm not gon na waste my time trying to change your mind . i will settle for your inevitable apology when the whole truth comes out and you ca n't deny the facts any longer . but if you will excuse me , i 'm meeting someone here soon , so if you can please ... elena : [ sighs ] devon : hey . phyllis : hey , devon . devon : i got to run . i 'm sorry . phyllis : [ clears throat ] hello . amanda : hi . please , please , take a seat . phyllis : oh , yeah . thank you . um ... alright . i assume you got a copy of my contract with the grand phoenix -- okay -- and the e - mail with the description of abby 's bogus reason for firing me . amanda : yes . i have perused all of the necessary documents . phyllis : great . how can we fix this ? where do we start ? amanda : not so fast . um ... this is not as simple as it may seem . abby : see ? fake . chance : all of them ? abby : every piece , every robbery , every victim . all a sham , fugazi . the only thing that was real was my plan to get rid of phyllis , and it worked . and that 's the gospel truth . elena : [ sighs ] devon : hey . i 've been calling after you . you did n't slow down or anything . what 's going on ? elena : no , no , because i needed time and space to think things through and just decide what i wanted to say to you . devon : this about amanda ? elena : you two at a restaurant . did you end up there by chance ? was it by choice ? did you decide to confront her ? devon : no . i ran in to her . i saw her , and i decided to confront her . that 's what -- if you think i invited her there , that 's crazy . elena : no , what 's crazy is you lied to me . devon : when did i lie to you ? elena : when you told me you 'd be at work all day and then i show up at society and you 're there with amanda . devon : babe , i just -- elena : we just had this beautiful , romantic lunch together . do you remember ? devon : of course i do ! it was a great relief . elena : yeah , a relief from the inescapable cloud that 's been over your head . losing your inheritance is all you think about and talk about . tell me i 'm wrong . devon : i did n't just lose my inheritance . i lost my trust in just about everybody and my life . elena : i thought i was a part of that life , too , and i 'm still here . devon : that 's not what i meant . colin did n't just take from me . he took from the people i 'd be able to help with the money and whose lives i could change . alright ? you 're acting like you want me to just get over it this in a couple weeks . elena : money is n't even the main point . you 're always gon na find a way to help people , but you keep focusing on amanda . devon : well , that 's 'cause she wo n't leave . she 's everywhere . everywhere we go , there she is . and now nate 's hanging out with her . he has no idea what he 's dealing with . elena : well , nate 's a big boy , and he 's gon na make his own choices . devon : like the choice i made to give up my money , with amanda 's help ? elena : maybe you should give nate the benefit of the doubt . he is level - headed and logical , and he 's even convinced me that maybe i 've ... been too harsh on amanda . devon : really ? wow . elena : i have a question for you , and i want you to be honest with me and with yourself . devon : okay . elena : are you attracted to amanda ? devon : not at all . i think that she 's a liar , i do n't trust one word that comes out of her mouth , and i ca n't wait until she leaves town and disappears . is that an answer for you ? elena : you know ... it almost would have been better if you were attracted to her ... because if you 're not ... then you must be obsessed . amanda : if you 're thinking about pursuing a wrongful - termination suit ... phyllis : that 's what i want to pursue , exactly . amanda : ... then i feel like i must warn you that these cases -- it 's gon na be an uphill battle . phyllis : okay . well , i 've been fighting all my life , so ... amanda : cases like these can take years . phyllis : o - okay . listen , this -- this case in particular is about doing the right thing . it 's about justice . amanda : okay . phyllis : this particular issue is about the security software in particular . my partners are saying i violated the terms of the contract because i made some tweaks to the system . i made it more user - friendly . that 's all . i was just , you know , trying to help , and , um the [ chuckles ] the issue here is my partners do n't like me and they 've never liked me , and this is their way of trying to get rid of me . amanda : okay . um [ clears throat ] if you 're looking for vindication , i say go for it . do n't let anyone stand in your way . phyllis : okay . what are my odds ? amanda : 50/50 . phyllis : 50/50 . that 's good . i 've had worse odds . okay . where do we start ? amanda : uh , we don't . unfortunately , i wo n't be able to help you -- not personally . phyllis : oh , no . are you just too busy ? i - is it bad timing ? i mean , i really want you to represent me . your track record is phenomenal . you have no losses . amanda : oh , yes , that 's true , but nonetheless -- phyllis : i have a lot of money . amanda : i 'm not worried about that . phyllis : okay . what -- what is holding you back ? amanda : [ sighs ] you . chance : tell me about those robbery victims . who were they ? abby : i spared no expense . i left nothing to chance . pardon the pun . [ chuckles ] i hired the best actors i could find . chance : incredible . abby : i had to make it look authentic . chance : you were n't worried by the third time that you 'd be found out ? abby : i was aware of the risks . chance : and you loved every minute of it . abby : i had to put the pressure on phyllis while making the crimes seem legitimate . one did n't seem like enough , but three was the perfect number . chance : so when i offered to help team up and smoke out the thief ... abby : it was an offer i could n't refuse . chance : i was gon na say that you happily used me . abby : getting you involved was a gamble . but it paid off . chance : how ? abby : you gave me what i needed -- proof that phyllis was tampering with the security system , giving herself a back door into the software and then scrubbing the evidence when she thought she was about to be found out . chance : you thought of everything . abby : but now she 's history . and there 's no need for any more fakery , unless ... chance : unless what ? abby : unless ... you plan on arresting me for my ever ... [ clattering ] ... so clever ... subterfuge . phyllis : i do n't understand how i 'm the problem . can you please explain that to me ? amanda : my decision has nothing to do with who is right and who is wrong . it has everything to do with me . the case that brought me here to genoa city -- it was stressful and high - profile enough for a lifetime , and i do not want more of the same . phyllis : oh , how is my case on par with devon 's ? amanda : because ... look , i know i 'm not saying anything to you that you do n't already know , phyllis . you are a lightning rod for trouble and controversy . and taking a case where the plaintiff has -- let 's just call it a reputation -- is not what i 'm looking for right now . phyllis : [ scoffs ] a reputation ? what do you mean ? amanda : i can tell you all the things that i 've found out about you since i 've been in genoa city , but i do n't want to hurt your feelings . phyllis : oh . wow . um , people make mistakes . amanda : yes , and the poor choices we make can follow us around for the rest of our lives , whether we deserve it or not . i 'm not saying that your case does n't have merit , okay ? you may very well prevail . now , if you want to continue to pursue this , i can -- i can compile a list of attorneys -- phyllis : i do n't want your list . thank you very much for , um , meeting with me . i 'll leave here . i do n't want ... my bad reputation to taint yours . um , i 'll take care of this on my own , like i do everything else . elena : you know what ? i kept trying to avoid the warning signs . but after a couple of weeks , the way that you talk about her and the way that you react when you see her ... devon : she makes me upset . amanda : ... and add to the fact that she looks just like hilary , it 's not healthy . devon : well , she 's not hilary -- they 're nothing alike -- and her appearance has nothing to do with why i 'm upset about what happened to me , alright ? i do n't -- i do n't know why you 're saying these things that you 're saying , but if you -- you want out of this relationship , do n't put it all on me . elena : how could you even think that ? i 'm saying all this because you 're the one pulling away from me , and i feel it every day . you know , when i used to think about the future ... i saw us ... together ... happy ... and in love . devon : babe , that 's exactly what we are . nothing has changed at all . elena : what do you want , devon ? is it me ... or is it to stay in your past with your anger ? because you need to decide what 's most important to you . devon : what -- what are you doing ? are you giving me an ultimatum ? elena : i 'm giving you a wake - up call . chance : you do realize filing a false police report is a felony ? abby : mm . see , i lied about that , too . the police never got back to me because ... i never called them . chance : [ chuckles softly ] well ... you did n't attempt to profit from your ruse . you did n't file a fraudulent insurance claim . abby : it was a victimless crime , unless you count phyllis . and i - i did lie to chloe and chelsea , but i feel awful , and i had to make the crimes look legit . chance : [ chuckles softly ] i see . you feel bad about lying to your friends ... but not about lying to me . abby : no , see , that hurt most of all . and i would love to find a way to make it up to you ... if you 'd let me . chance : are you flirting with a federal agent ? abby : hmm . that depends . is it working ? chance : of all the people to ask to dig in to a security system ... you asked someone who is trained to see through lies ... someone who figures stuff like this out for a living . that takes a lot of nerve . abby : mm . see , that ... was the most exciting part -- beating you ... at your own game . chance : [ chuckles softly ] except you didn't . i saw right through you ... from the start . summer : alright . well , i will consult with kyle , and i will get back to you with the answer . yes , we are very much in sync on this project . [ chuckles softly ] no , having his leadership on this one is a real bonus . i mean , kyle is -- he 's stellar . he has great attention for detail . he knows exactly what our customers want , exactly what our employees need , and , yeah , he 's a real team player . he breathes a lot of new life into jabot . um , well , i will -- i will give you a call back . okay . bye . hey . what are you , uh -- what are you doing here ? phyllis : oh , you know , i just wanted to come see someone who did n't make me feel ... you know , 10 inches tall . summer : why ? what happened ? phyllis : oh , you know , fired from a job i loved . [ chuckles ] uh , turned down by a lawyer who said i have a bad reputation .

's body . phyllis : right , right . okay . alright . i do n't need to relive my most challenging moments , but thanks . summer : hey , i have an idea . phyllis : shoot . summer : we could build an all - inclusive database for all of your future frenemies so they can find all your exploits in one place , and then that way , it 's just , you know , faster judgments and quicker rejections . phyllis : ha ha . summer : oh , mom , come on . you know that i 'm joking , right ? phyllis : mm - hmm . yeah , i know . it 's a joke . [ sighs ] i know who i am . i know what everybody in this town thinks of me . summer : i feel like today really threw you for a loop . i mean , you 're right . it 's one thing to be judged by people that know you . phyllis : [ exhales sharply ] summer : but , for some reason , this one really got under your skin . i do n't know . i feel like it kind of broke you a little . devon : elena thinks that i 'm stuck and that i need to move on and stop focusing on amanda . mariah : maybe she has a point . devon : about amanda ? mariah : no . no . you 're right about her . she knew how to get under your skin , and she used it for all that it was worth . i think she 's a threat . the sooner she 's gone , the better . devon : thanks for saying that . i completely agree . i ca n't wait till she leaves town so i can focus on my own life and start to make things right with elena . mariah : and you told elena all of this ? devon : she does n't want to hear it . she 's tired of hearing the same old story . mariah : oh . so you dump it all on me . devon : you asked me , so ... mariah : [ chuckles ] i know . look ... elena is the one that you need to fix things with . she 's the one you need to talk to , and not about amanda -- about her , about you , about how much she means to you and how she 's made you happier than you ever thought possible and you need her by your side so you can get through all of this , so you can build a new life together . you 're the guy i 'd run to for advice . and not too long ago , you would have immediately known the right thing to do . so where is the problem - solver that i knew and loved ? devon : i know . you 're right . mariah : then what are you still doing here ? [ chuckles ] devon : that 's a good point . thank you . mariah : you 're welcome . elena : i 'm not who you think i am . what i 'm trying to say is i have n't been myself around you . i 've been unkind , unforgiving , defensive . that 's not who i am . amanda : then who are you ? elena : i 'm someone who stands by her partner , for better or for worse , and it 's been made clear to me that maybe i 've been unfair . amanda : well , that 's very big of you . elena : i was raised to be better than that . judge not ... amanda : lest ye be judged . if it makes you feel any better , i know what it 's like to get swept up in a situation and then realize that you 've lost perspective . elena : yeah . i was n't loving the person i was becoming . amanda : and now you are willing to give me the benefit of the doubt . elena : i do n't know you , but if what you 're saying is true , that you were blindsided by the situation with katherine 's will , then i 'm willing to believe you . amanda : and that devon had me all wrong ? elena : that 's definitely a possibility . amanda : did nate put you up to this ? elena : we spoke . and he stood up for you and i listened , and i decided that if there was no solid proof otherwise ... thinking the worst of you accomplishes nothing . amanda : what did devon have to say ? elena : this is n't about devon . it 's about you and me . and i 'm hoping you can put the way that i treated you on the side and we can start fresh . what do you say ? amanda : i accept . phyllis : okay . i 'm letting an entire stranger affect me like . um , i - i 'm fine . amanda sinclair is not the only game in town . there are boatloads of other incredible lawyers in town that would be honored to represent the force of nature that is phyllis summers . i got this . i 'm fine . summer : are you really fine , though , mom ? i mean , look , the takeaway here is that your reputation precedes you , right ? and if something does n't change , this is just going to keep happening . phyllis : okay . you 're supposed to be on my side . you realize that ? summer : mom , i am on your side . i am . i love you . i love my badass mom , who takes no prisoners . but the truth is people do n't trust you . phyllis : they do n't know me . summer : well , you 're notorious . phyllis : i like that . summer : no , that is not a compliment , mom . people think that you are always on the make , that you are self - serving , that you are ... phyllis : okay . shh , shh . summer : ... a liability , mom . phyllis : please .

elena tells devon that he needs to decide what is more important her or his obsession with finding his stolen money and finding out more about amanda . mariah talks with devon later and tells him that he needs to show elena how important she is to him . elena apologizes to amanda for treating her so harshly and promises to give her the benefit of the doubt because nate made her see that she judged her before she got to know her . phyllis asks amanda to help her file a wrongful termination suit against abby but amanda tells her they would n't win the case because she has a bad reputation . amanda 's words really hurt phyllis and she goes to summer to tell her about what happened . summer tells her amanda is right and she loves her mother 's take no prisoners attitude but it would n't be so bad if she showed people how kind and loving she can be so people would n't always think the worst of her . abby admits to chance that she hired actors to help her stage the robberies in order to be able to fire phyllis . chance tells her that he figured that out a long time ago and he is so impressed by her gutsy plan that he decides not to arrest her for her victimless crime . abby offers chance the job of head of security and he promises to think about the offer .

because otherwise -- devon : i thought i made it clear -- i want my money . amanda : i thought i made it clear that i do n't have it . i was played just like you . devon : no , it was nothing like me , okay ? you scammed me by playing on my emotions , and i got caught between my head and my heart . so , what 's your excuse ? you do n't have one , 'cause you 're too gifted and -- and smart and talented to get tricked like me . so , that says to me that you 're in on it . amanda : i 've told you a dozen times that i had nothing to do with colin 's scam , but here you are . you are still hounding me . so , do i need to file a restraining order ?

elena : no , no , because i needed time and space to think things through and just decide what i wanted to say to you . devon : this about amanda ? elena : you two at a restaurant . did you end up there by chance ? was it by choice ? did you decide to confront her ? devon : no . i ran in to her . i saw her , and i decided to confront her . that 's what -- if you think i invited her there , that 's crazy . elena : no , what 's crazy is you lied to me . devon : when did i lie to you ?

you 're acting like you want me to just get over it this in a couple weeks . elena : money is n't even the main point . you 're always gon na find a way to help people , but you keep focusing on amanda . devon : well , that 's 'cause she wo n't leave . she 's everywhere . everywhere we go , there she is . and now nate 's hanging out with her . he has no idea what he 's dealing with . elena : well , nate 's a big boy , and he 's gon na make his own choices . devon : like the choice i made to give up my money , with amanda 's help ?

devon : not at all . i think that she 's a liar , i do n't trust one word that comes out of her mouth , and i ca n't wait until she leaves town and disappears . is that an answer for you ? elena : you know ... it almost would have been better if you were attracted to her ... because if you 're not ... then you must be obsessed . amanda : if you 're thinking about pursuing a wrongful - termination suit ... phyllis : that 's what i want to pursue , exactly . amanda : ... then i feel like i must warn you that these cases -- it 's gon na be an uphill battle . phyllis : okay . well , i 've been fighting all my life , so ... amanda : cases like these can take years . phyllis : o - okay . listen , this -- this case in particular is about doing the right thing . it 's about justice . amanda : okay . phyllis : this particular issue is about the security software in particular . my partners are saying i violated the terms of the contract because i made some tweaks to the system . i made it more user - friendly . that 's all . i was just , you know , trying to help , and , um the [ chuckles ] the issue here is my partners do n't like me and they 've never liked me , and this is their way of trying to get rid of me . amanda : okay . um [ clears throat ] if you 're looking for vindication , i say go for it . do n't let anyone stand in your way . phyllis : okay . what are my odds ?

[ clattering ] ... so clever ... subterfuge . phyllis : i do n't understand how i 'm the problem . can you please explain that to me ? amanda : my decision has nothing to do with who is right and who is wrong . it has everything to do with me . the case that brought me here to genoa city -- it was stressful and high - profile enough for a lifetime , and i do not want more of the same . phyllis : oh , how is my case on par with devon 's ? amanda : because ... look , i know i 'm not saying anything to you that you do n't already know , phyllis . you are a lightning rod for trouble and controversy . and taking a case where the plaintiff has -- let 's just call it a reputation -- is not what i 'm looking for right now . phyllis : [ scoffs ] a reputation ? what do you mean ? amanda : i can tell you all the things that i 've found out about you since i 've been in genoa city , but i do n't want to hurt your feelings . phyllis : oh . wow . um , people make mistakes . amanda : yes , and the poor choices we make can follow us around for the rest of our lives , whether we deserve it or not . i 'm not saying that your case does n't have merit , okay ? you may very well prevail . now , if you want to continue to pursue this , i can -- i can compile a list of attorneys -- phyllis : i do n't want your list . thank you very much for , um , meeting with me . i 'll leave here . i do n't want ... my bad reputation to taint yours . um , i 'll take care of this on my own , like i do everything else . elena : you know what ? i kept trying to avoid the warning signs . but after a couple of weeks , the way that you talk about her and the way that you react when you see her ... devon : she makes me upset . amanda : ... and add to the fact that she looks just like hilary , it 's not healthy . devon : well , she 's not hilary -- they 're nothing alike -- and her appearance has nothing to do with why i 'm upset about what happened to me , alright ? i do n't -- i do n't know why you 're saying these things that you 're saying , but if you -- you want out of this relationship , do n't put it all on me . elena : how could you even think that ? i 'm saying all this because you 're the one pulling away from me , and i feel it every day . you know , when i used to think about the future ... i saw us ... together ... happy ... and in love . devon : babe , that 's exactly what we are . nothing has changed at all . elena : what do you want , devon ? is it me ... or is it to stay in your past with your anger ? because you need to decide what 's most important to you . devon : what -- what are you doing ? are you giving me an ultimatum ? elena : i 'm giving you a wake - up call . chance : you do realize filing a false police report is a felony ? abby : mm . see , i lied about that , too . the police never got back to me because ... i never called them . chance : [ chuckles softly ] well ... you did n't attempt to profit from your ruse . you did n't file a fraudulent insurance claim . abby : it was a victimless crime , unless you count phyllis . and i - i did lie to chloe and chelsea , but i feel awful , and i had to make the crimes look legit . chance : [ chuckles softly ] i see . you feel bad about lying to your friends ... but not about lying to me . abby : no , see , that hurt most of all . and i would love to find a way to make it up to you ... if you 'd let me . chance : are you flirting with a federal agent ? abby : hmm . that depends . is it working ? chance : of all the people to ask to dig in to a security system ... you asked someone who is trained to see through lies ... someone who figures stuff like this out for a living . that takes a lot of nerve . abby : mm . see , that ... was the most exciting part -- beating you ... at your own game . chance : [ chuckles softly ] except you didn't . i saw right through you ... from the start . summer : alright . well , i will consult with kyle , and i will get back to you with the answer . yes , we are very much in sync on this project . [ chuckles softly ] no , having his leadership on this one is a real bonus . i mean , kyle is -- he 's stellar . he has great attention for detail . he knows exactly what our customers want , exactly what our employees need , and , yeah , he 's a real team player . he breathes a lot of new life into jabot . um , well , i will -- i will give you a call back . okay . bye . hey . what are you , uh -- what are you doing here ? phyllis : oh , you know , i just wanted to come see someone who did n't make me feel ... you know , 10 inches tall . summer : why ? what happened ? phyllis : oh , you know , fired from a job i loved .

's body . phyllis : right , right . okay . alright . i do n't need to relive my most challenging moments , but thanks . summer : hey , i have an idea . phyllis : shoot . summer : we could build an all - inclusive database for all of your future frenemies so they can find all your exploits in one place , and then that way , it 's just , you know , faster judgments and quicker rejections . phyllis : ha ha . summer : oh , mom , come on . you know that i 'm joking , right ? phyllis : mm - hmm . yeah , i know . it 's a joke . [ sighs ] i know who i am . i know what everybody in this town thinks of me . summer : i feel like today really threw you for a loop . i mean , you 're right . it 's one thing to be judged by people that know you . phyllis : [ exhales sharply ] summer : but , for some reason , this one really got under your skin . i do n't know . i feel like it kind of broke you a little . devon : elena thinks that i 'm stuck and that i need to move on and stop focusing on amanda . mariah : maybe she has a point . devon : about amanda ? mariah : no . no . you 're right about her . she knew how to get under your skin , and she used it for all that it was worth . i think she 's a threat . the sooner she 's gone , the better . devon : thanks for saying that . i completely agree . i ca n't wait till she leaves town so i can focus on my own life and start to make things right with elena . mariah : and you told elena all of this ? devon : she does n't want to hear it . she 's tired of hearing the same old story . mariah : oh . so you dump it all on me . devon : you asked me , so ... mariah : [ chuckles ] i know . look ... elena is the one that you need to fix things with . she 's the one you need to talk to , and not about amanda -- about her , about you , about how much she means to you and how she 's made you happier than you ever thought possible and you need her by your side so you can get through all of this , so you can build a new life together . you 're the guy i 'd run to for advice . and not too long ago , you would have immediately known the right thing to do . so where is the problem - solver that i knew and loved ? devon : i know . you 're right . mariah : then what are you still doing here ? [ chuckles ] devon : that 's a good point . thank you . mariah : you 're welcome . elena : i 'm not who you think i am . what i 'm trying to say is i have n't been myself around you . i 've been unkind , unforgiving , defensive . that 's not who i am . amanda : then who are you ? elena : i 'm someone who stands by her partner , for better or for worse , and it 's been made clear to me that maybe i 've been unfair . amanda : well , that 's very big of you . elena : i was raised to be better than that . judge not ... amanda : lest ye be judged . if it makes you feel any better , i know what it 's like to get swept up in a situation and then realize that you 've lost perspective . elena : yeah . i was n't loving the person i was becoming . amanda : and now you are willing to give me the benefit of the doubt . elena : i do n't know you , but if what you 're saying is true , that you were blindsided by the situation with katherine 's will , then i 'm willing to believe you . amanda : and that devon had me all wrong ? elena : that 's definitely a possibility . amanda : did nate put you up to this ? elena : we spoke . and he stood up for you and i listened , and i decided that if there was no solid proof otherwise ... thinking the worst of you accomplishes nothing . amanda : what did devon have to say ? elena : this is n't about devon . it 's about you and me . and i 'm hoping you can put the way that i treated you on the side and we can start fresh . what do you say ? amanda : i accept . phyllis : okay . i 'm letting an entire stranger affect me like . um , i - i 'm fine . amanda sinclair is not the only game in town . there are boatloads of other incredible lawyers in town that would be honored to represent the force of nature that is phyllis summers . i got this . i 'm fine . summer : are you really fine , though , mom ? i mean , look , the takeaway here is that your reputation precedes you , right ? and if something does n't change , this is just going to keep happening . phyllis : okay . you 're supposed to be on my side . you realize that ? summer : mom , i am on your side . i am . i love you . i love my badass mom , who takes no prisoners . but the truth is people do n't trust you . phyllis : they do n't know me . summer : well , you 're notorious . phyllis : i like that . summer : no , that is not a compliment , mom . people think that you are always on the make , that you are self - serving , that you are ... phyllis : okay . shh , shh . summer : ... a liability , mom . phyllis : please .

[ chuckles ] franco : ava jerome . elizabeth : mm - hmm . franco : not a nice person . you should stay away from her . what was she doing there ? elizabeth : well , apparently , she happened to be sitting next to nikolas on the plane when he first left port charles . she said the two of them had bonded and that she was actually with him when he really died . she did n't go to his funeral , so she was stopping by wyndemere to offer laura her condolences . franco : whoever sent his stuff sent millions of dollars worth of diamonds ? elizabeth : okay , the thing is , is that this pouch was n't visible in the box . then ava asked if she could have nikolas ' boot , because she said they had grown close , and she would like something to remember him by . franco : of course . like a boot . of course . ava does n't have a sympathetic bone in her body . you know that , right ? elizabeth : yes . it sounded ... off to me . turns out , nikolas hid the diamonds in his boot . franco : poor ava . always so close and still so far . elizabeth : so now i just need to figure out what the hell i 'm gon na do with these . franco : well , what 's the dilemma ? do n't you just give them to laura or to spencer ? elizabeth : i would if they were nikolas ' to begin with , but he stole these diamonds from hayden .

[ sighs ] aaron came by . kristina : what ? alexis : yeah , someone found your phone . he wanted to return it to you . you know , he 's a really nice guy . he seems to care about you . kristina : i finally told him about parker . i mean , not surprisingly , he was n't thrilled about it , but we 're gon na try and be friends . molly : well , i 'm really glad someone found your phone . i felt awful about throwing it . kristina : well , i was pretty lit last night . [ chuckles ] molly overheard me leaving a message for parker , and she grabbed my phone and tossed it . and even though i was n't appreciative at the time , i think she saved me from humiliating myself even -- oh , my god . molly : what ? kristina : parker called me back .

[ scene_break ] elizabeth : it 's not easy for me to trust . franco : okay . why 's that ? because of jason ? elizabeth : no . franco : because of aiden 's dad , lucky ? elizabeth : no . franco : i - i do n't get it . elizabeth : franco , i was raped . franco : i - i 'm -- i 'm sorry . i -- it 's okay . it 's -- it happened a really long time ago . i was young . and even though i - it took years for me to recover -- and i have recovered -- it changed me forever . franco : okay . right . you 've endured too much , and i 'm -- i 'm sorry . i think what you 're saying is that , no matter how much i swear to you that i 've changed , no matter how much i - i have or have not changed , you ... ... you believe somehow that i 'm someone who 's capable of hurting you . do you remember when i was released from the police station , and i came to you and i said , `` you know , i think that we should take a break . i think that you do n't deserve to be conflicted . `` i said that . and yet here we are again , right ? somehow , we 've managed to dance our way back together again , and i ca n't -- i ca n't do that dance , one step forward and then drifting back like that . i 'm gon na have to ask you to leave , elizabeth . i - i am . i have to .

[ keys jingle ] finn : i told you i was nobody 's prince . behind all this ... rage there 's a compliment . you think you need something from me , but you do not . you are beautiful and you are smart and you are funny . and i guess what i 'm trying to say , hayden , is if you want to stay , stay for some reason that 's only about you . and if you want to leave , leave because you have someplace you 'd rather be -- someplace where you have nobody holding you back or there is n't somebody there that 's gon na die on you . hayden : i do n't need or want anything from you . go to hell . finn : [ sniffles and closes the lab door . ] here you go , reiko .

[ scene_break ] alexis : sweetie , why do n't you put the phone down for a minute and talk to us ? kristina : parker did n't leave a voicemail , but she did call me back , so that means something , right ? molly : well , i would n't read too much into it . i mean , yeah , she called you back , but she did n't even leave a message . what if she did n't mean to call you ? what if it was a butt - dial ? that happens all the time . kristina : trust me , parker does n't do anything by accident . she 's reaching out to me . molly : okay , but parker broke up with you by leaving a note . she did n't bother to talk to you in person , and she did n't even have the courage to talk to you over the phone . kristina : well , maybe she 's reconsidering us . maybe she wants to try dating me . alexis : you know what ? i - i ca n't . i really ca n't . i ca n't listen to this anymore . if parker wanted to leave you a message , she would 've left you a message . sweetie , she did n't , okay ? it appears that nothing has changed . kristina : what makes you so sure ? alexis : when i saw her at the promenade , i - it did n't take much persuasion . one little nudge , and she was willing to walk away , and she did n't even bother to tell you in person . kristina : what would you prefer , mom , if parker tried to murder me like julian did with you ? [ roger , the reporter , listens in and takes pictures of the confrontation with his phone ] alexis : are you kidding me ? molly : mom , hey , keep your voice down . alexis : are you actually comparing your situation to parker with what is going on with me right now ? i am just trying to help you from being hurt . kristina : [ scoffs ] okay , so that whole big speech about how you 're sorry for meddling in my life , that was just a big , fat lie . so you 're not sorry at all . molly : guys , no . you need to stop before one of you says something that you 're gon na regret . kristina : oh , like what , molly ? that , um , my mom is just the same bitter victim that she was when she ruined my life ? molly : yes , that 's exactly what i meant . kristina : well , parker is clearly rethinking her exit from my life , and there 's nothing you can do to stop me from seeing her . alexis : where are you going ? kristina : go to hell . alexis : do n't you ever speak to me like that again . you are not the only person with a problem here . so stop being so damn self - involved and grow up !

hayden 's mom urges her to get out of port charles , to realize there 's no reason to stay and that she could be risking consequences she does not want if she stays . yet hayden makes it clear one reason why she 's not ready to do that is her `` friend `` , dr. finn . she goes to see him and is very baffled to see he 's in a very bitter and negative mood , finding it odd given how he appeared very positive and encouraged the last time they spoke . he expresses to her that she needs to make her own decisions and stop believing that other people , such as himself or nikolas or anyone should be her `` prince `` . hayden is offended by the way he talks to her and storms out of the room yet she is still determined to stay in town and face all the people who doubt and fail to respect her . elizabeth has found the diamonds which she knows ties hayden and her family to their crimes and knows if she keeps them , she can use them as evidence against hayden . yet she is not certain what she should do at this point , regarding all of that . she goes to visit franco who is surprised to see her , unexpectedly and she tells him she wants to confide in him about this . at first , he is confused as to why she wants to see him , expresses to her he 's convinced that they are both living a lie and fooling themselves to think they can continue seeing each other with all of the reservations they both have . yet she convinces him that she wants to be with him and he need not doubt that . obrecht appears to know finn 's secret for why he 's traveling on sonny corinthos ' private jet and making it very secretive where he goes and what he does and the fact that he 's obviously using and experimenting with illegal drugs . she clearly wants to get him in trouble and antagonizes him . alexis meets with her two daughters at the metro court and gets into another heated argument with kristina regarding kristina 's `` lost cause `` with parker and her own `` even worse `` mistake with julian . little do they know a guy is sitting behind the bar recording the whole confrontation on his phone . dante and lulu have happily moved into their new house and are ready to have another baby . yet they get startling news from their ob - gyn that there is no more chance for her to have another baby . this devastates her and they both relive all they had to go through in the last few years and all they are still determined to do in order to have another baby .

[ scene_break ] franco : you are secretly a billionaire , and you forgot to mention that to me ? elizabeth : [ chuckles ] they 're not mine . earlier , i went to wyndemere , and , when i was leaving , i found a box at the front door . franco : let me see . elizabeth : [ chuckles ] it had nikolas ' name on it . it was from cassadine island in greece . and i took it upon myself to open the box because i figured , if there was something upsetting in there , i did n't want laura to have to deal with it . franco : and the diamonds were in the box ? elizabeth : they were hidden in some of nikolas ' things . there was a jacket and one of his boots . i 'm guessing that stuff just got washed ashore after the sea took his body . it 's terrible to think that 's all that 's left of him . franco : i 'm sorry you had to go through that all alone . elizabeth : well , i did n't . uh , ava showed up . [ chuckles ] franco : ava jerome . elizabeth : mm - hmm . franco : not a nice person . you should stay away from her . what was she doing there ? elizabeth : well , apparently , she happened to be sitting next to nikolas on the plane when he first left port charles . she said the two of them had bonded and that she was actually with him when he really died . she did n't go to his funeral , so she was stopping by wyndemere to offer laura her condolences . franco : whoever sent his stuff sent millions of dollars worth of diamonds ? elizabeth : okay , the thing is , is that this pouch was n't visible in the box . then ava asked if she could have nikolas ' boot , because she said they had grown close , and she would like something to remember him by . franco : of course . like a boot . of course . ava does n't have a sympathetic bone in her body . you know that , right ? elizabeth : yes . it sounded ... off to me . turns out , nikolas hid the diamonds in his boot . franco : poor ava . always so close and still so far . elizabeth : so now i just need to figure out what the hell i 'm gon na do with these . franco : well , what 's the dilemma ? do n't you just give them to laura or to spencer ? elizabeth : i would if they were nikolas ' to begin with , but he stole these diamonds from hayden . [ scene_break ] hayden : laura must 've opened this after we left . i remember this jacket . naomi : oh , this is awful . sweetheart , we need to go through this box immediately before anyone else gets home . hayden : i 'm looking through my dead husband 's effects , and all you can think about are those diamonds ? naomi : yeah , and you 're gon na tell me that -- that you did n't think about it for a moment yourself . hayden : no . naomi : look , you have searched the entire house . the federal authorities have searched the entire house . no one has found anything . it 's possible that the diamonds could be stashed among his effects . hayden : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] dr. obrecht : i knew finn was up to no good . finn : what the hell do you think you 're doing ? ! dr. obrecht : the better question is ... what in the hell are you doing ? [ laughs ] is that your solution , trying to hide things that i 've already seen ? it 's too late . i 've already seen that you 're working with highly restricted substances -- ones not available or legal in this country . that explains your mystery trip abroad and why you did n't fly commercial . instead , you flew on a private plane owned by the notorious criminal sonny corinthos -- a man who clearly would n't have an issue with your smuggling . finn : i do n't answer to you , lady . i fly when i want , where i want . dr. obrecht : no doubt you are formulating a new party drug , something to rival ecstasy , something you and sonny are going to sell on the black market . make no mistake , dr. finn . i may no longer be chief of staff , but i can and will report you to the authorities . [ scene_break ] dante : i 'm so hungry . this is taking too long . sweetheart , what did dr. lee say about when you would be ready ? lulu : uh , she said that she needed to monitor me for about a month and make sure that the estrogen is doing its thing , and , when my body is ready , she 's gon na move me on to another hormone . and then , shortly after that , i 'll be ready to transfer the embryo . dante : so , october ? you 're gon na be pregnant in october ? lulu : [ giggles ] [ phone ringing ] lulu : come on . it 's dr. lee . dr. lee . are your ears burning ? we were just talking about you . oh , okay , do you want me to put you on speaker ? why ? dr. lee says that she has some bad news for us .

[ scene_break ] elizabeth : it 's not easy for me to trust . franco : okay . why 's that ? because of jason ? elizabeth : no . franco : because of aiden 's dad , lucky ? elizabeth : no . franco : i - i do n't get it . elizabeth : franco , i was raped . franco : i - i 'm -- i 'm sorry . i -- it 's okay . it 's -- it happened a really long time ago . i was young . and even though i - it took years for me to recover -- and i have recovered -- it changed me forever . franco : okay . right . you 've endured too much , and i 'm -- i 'm sorry . i think what you 're saying is that , no matter how much i swear to you that i 've changed , no matter how much i - i have or have not changed , you ... ... you believe somehow that i 'm someone who 's capable of hurting you . do you remember when i was released from the police station , and i came to you and i said , `` you know , i think that we should take a break . i think that you do n't deserve to be conflicted . `` i said that . and yet here we are again , right ? somehow , we 've managed to dance our way back together again , and i ca n't -- i ca n't do that dance , one step forward and then drifting back like that . i 'm gon na have to ask you to leave , elizabeth . i - i am . i have to .

[ scene_break ] alexis : sweetie , why do n't you put the phone down for a minute and talk to us ? kristina : parker did n't leave a voicemail , but she did call me back , so that means something , right ? molly : well , i would n't read too much into it . i mean , yeah , she called you back , but she did n't even leave a message . what if she did n't mean to call you ? what if it was a butt - dial ? that happens all the time . kristina : trust me , parker does n't do anything by accident . she 's reaching out to me . molly : okay , but parker broke up with you by leaving a note . she did n't bother to talk to you in person , and she did n't even have the courage to talk to you over the phone . kristina : well , maybe she 's reconsidering us . maybe she wants to try dating me . alexis : you know what ? i - i ca n't . i really ca n't . i ca n't listen to this anymore . if parker wanted to leave you a message , she would 've left you a message . sweetie , she did n't , okay ? it appears that nothing has changed . kristina : what makes you so sure ? alexis : when i saw her at the promenade , i - it did n't take much persuasion . one little nudge , and she was willing to walk away , and she did n't even bother to tell you in person . kristina : what would you prefer , mom , if parker tried to murder me like julian did with you ?

[ gasps ] and we ca n't thank you enough for bringing her into our lives . i promise you , flo , i 'm gon na look after her like she 's my own . steffy : liam is an amazing father to both girls . phoebe and kelly are very lucky . liam : yeah . steffy : and so i am i . to have him here . you do n't have to worry . phoebe has the life and family you 've always wanted for her . flo , are you all right ? ridge : thomas admires hope . he 's grateful for the way that she 's bonded with douglas . brooke : [ sighs ] i think it 's more than that . do n't get me wrong -- i 'm not accusing your son of anything . but we both know that he 's had some issues in the past . ridge : issues that were dealt with . brooke : but now he seems to be focused and fixated on hope . look , they 've both been through some very painful moments , and -- ridge : yes , they have . and now they can help each other . brooke : that would be great . i wish that they would . and if they were just friends , then i do n't think we would be having this conversation . but i ca n't ignore what i see , ridge . it 's not healthy . and hope is in a very vulnerable situation . thomas : okay , you were n't expecting that . hope : uh , we were talking about work , the line . thomas : yeah . whenever i 'm around you , i , heh , get the urge to put my arms around you and show you how i feel . remember , i - i have that engagement ring , and i 'm ready to give it to you whenever you are . hope : thomas , i 've explained . thomas : [ sighs ] you 're not ready . hope : and i 'm not sure what `` ready `` will look like . if there will be a day when i wake up and do n't think of beth , or -- or i go to sleep and do n't wonder how my life would have been if she were still here . thomas : but you could have a new life . it wo n't be the same . but it can be good . douglas and i , w - we 'll be here for you . that 's why i 'm doing this . [ scoffs ] i -- i know i might come on strong . i might be moving too fast , all right ? i make mistakes . i 'm not perfect . and i 'm probably gon na make a few more . [ sighs ] but loving you , that 's not one of them . wanting a life with you is n't wrong . i do n't want to hurt you . & you know that , right ? hope : thomas ... you have been so encouraging and so positive . but there 's something else , is n't there ? i can tell you 're upset . thomas : [ clears throat ] hope : so what is it ? you know , it 's like i tell douglas all the time -- you do n't have to hide your feelings from me . you don't . you can talk to me about anything . you can be honest with me . you know that , right ?
as thomas sketches he thinks over all he knows now that phoebe is really beth and is hope 's daughter . he calls steffy to see how the other night went . she says fine ; liam moved in and it seems he is here to stay . it will be in the guest room . he thinks that is fine for now as long as they are raising the two girls . she asks about him and hope raising douglas and he says if it were up to him that would be now . he calls hope and asks if she can come to the office . he is on the verge of something that could make a big impact on things . wyatt and flo swim and then he springs it on her that he has been invited to liam and steffy 's and while phoebe will be there he thought it would be good for her to get past that first meeting . she says she just was not prepared for that today and to deal with things . steffy too is surprised when liam tells her that he invited wyatt over and he probably will bring flo since they are dating . liam apologizes if steffy does not like this . she says no , it 's just it 's only been a few months since the adoption and flo has never asked to see phoebe . wyatt tells flo he is sure all will work out okay and she can see for herself as the birth mom just what she made possible . finally she agrees that maybe it would do her good to see how great a life phoebe does have now . things are going well between ridge and brooke until ridge gets the picture from brooke 's words that she feels thomas 's connection to hope is a little unhealthy . when hope arrives at the office thomas greets her and shows her a bagged gown . she asks if they are waiting on a model and he says she just walked in . he unzips the bag for her . hope tries on the gown and thomas tells her it is really her . she says it looks amazing and is perfect . she thanks him for taking his time to do this for her . he says she is worth it and now a new beginning moving forward . they can do it together . he goes on and on how he just spoke with his dad and he can see him stepping up one day and being ceo and hope there to help him . he and douglas will always be there for her . and she has done so much for the other children , kelly and phoebe . it 's just what hope needs .
<s>[INST] thomas : phoebe is beth ? phoebe is hope 's daughter ? flo : your sister is raising hope 's little girl . hope : can we just see what happens ? can that be enough for now , or ... [ dialing ] [ cellphone rings ] steffy : hey , big brother . thomas : hey . uh ... how did everything go the other day ? steffy : it was good . liam 's first night back at the house went well . thomas : really ? steffy : yeah . he stayed in the guest room . but he 's here , okay ? thomas : where he 's gon na stay . steffy : what , you see the future now ? thomas : i can see how much you love each other , how much you love those girls . you 're gon na raise them together . steffy : and what about you ? are you and hope gon na be raising douglas together ? thomas : well , if it was up to me , we already would be . hope : [ sighs ] liam : she did n't make it . hope : [ crying ] no ! no ! [ sobbing ] i have to give the children the future that they deserve . and i -- i need to end our marriage , and i have to let you go . wyatt : hey , you should probably put a -- a hoodie in your bag . it might get cold down at the beach later . flo : are you worried that i 'll steal one of yours ? wyatt : i never did get my favorite t - shirt back , by the way . flo : you gave that to me ! wyatt : i did -- you took that out of my drawer . flo : no , i did not . wyatt : yes , you -- fine . maybe steffy has something you can borrow . flo : steffy ? wyatt : yeah , we 're -- we 're going down to her place . flo : when you said the beach , i thought you just meant we were gon na go to your house . wyatt : i - i know you have n't been down to steffy 's place since the adoption , and you -- and you have n't seen phoebe , so ... i do n't know . i thought it might be good for you . for everyone . flo : i just , um ... i just do n't know if i was prepared for that today , you know ? ridge : [ groans ] brooke : ohh . whew ! is this what i get for complimenting your mood ? i should do it more often . ridge : i think you 're gon na have plenty of chances for that . brooke : yeah ? ridge : mm - hmm . brooke : so the smile you have on your face , that 's permanent ? ridge : well , if thomas keeps stepping up , then it could be , yeah . [ dialing ] [ cellphone rings ] hope : hey , thomas . thomas : hey , hope . uh ... i need you . can you come into the office ? hope : is something wrong ? thomas : if i say there is , will it get you here right away ? hope : heh ... okay . sounds important . thomas : well , it is . i - i think i 'm on the verge of something . something that could have a monumental impact on everything for the better . hope : well , now i 'm too curious to stay away . thomas : see you soon . [ cellphone beeps ] steffy : the girls still asleep ? liam : yeah . you know , i - i thought i heard kelly , but , um , i guess not . steffy : you know you , uh , do n't need an excuse to peek in on them , right ? liam : oh . drinks in the coolers ? steffy : uh , yeah . yeah . already done . hey , should we have asked bill and katie to join us on our little picnic ? because he was talking about how much he wants to spend time with the girls , and -- liam : yeah . uh ... funny you say that . i was actually talking to wyatt earlier , and i - i invited him . steffy : oh , yeah . that 'd be nice to see him . wyatt : it 's okay ? steffy : yeah . liam : and i think he 's gon na bring flo , just 'cause they 're dating , and he thought it might be good for her , so -- is -- is it okay she 's invited ? wyatt : i - i know i kind of sprung this on you last - minute , but it 's because i think that it 's a good idea . look , when phoebe comes up in conversation , you get ... i do n't know . you get quiet and -- and internal and everything , and ... look , back when the adoption was happening , i remember steffy saying something about being open to you being a part of phoebe 's life , right ? flo : yeah . wyatt : and -- and -- and now that you 're a logan and you 're working at forrester and we 're dating , i mean , obviously we 're gon na be spending a lot of time with steffy and her family . so ... i do n't know . it might be good for you to get to know them better . flo : i just thought it was gon na be , you know , the two of us having a beach day . wyatt : yeah . flo : look , honestly , i -- i really think that seeing phoebe might just bring up a lot of things that no one 's really ready to deal with . brooke : so , thomas did something to impress you ? ridge : yeah . i appreciate the time he 's putting in with hope for the future , and the way he 's raising douglas . he 's moving forward , and that is -- that 's new for him . brooke : he is focused . ridge : he knows what he wants . and not just for himself , but for us . he 's ready to take on a leadership role . and i - i think he should . i think it 's about time . thomas : i mean , you know i 've been working really hard on hope for the future . uh , infusing it with new energy , bringing your spirit and your vision into the collection . hope : heh . i 've -- i 've been very pleased with your designs . thomas : well , i hope you like this one even more . i made a prototype . hope : heh ... are we waiting on a model ? thomas : she just arrived . hope : [ inhales ] thomas : would you try it on ? i really put my heart into it . holy mother of thin . steffy : so , flo 's coming . liam : yeah . sorry , i -- i spaced . i should have checked in with you about that . but , um ... i just thought , you speak of her so highly , uh , that , if she wanted to come , you would be psyched about it . steffy : y - yeah , of course . i 'm just a little surprised . you know , it 's been a few months since the adoption , and she 's never asked to see phoebe . though i am open to it . i mean , it 's gon na be good , considering we 're gon na be in each other 's lives . i just ... i wonder how she feels about it . wyatt : i mean , it 's bound to happen eventually , do n't you think ? flo : [ sighs ] right . i just -- i just did n't think it was gon na happen today . wyatt : okay , well , if you do n't want to go , i - i can call liam and -- and tell him we -- we 're just not up to it . flo : does steffy know that i 'm invited ? wyatt : yeah . flo : yeah ? wyatt : yeah , i mean , i as -- i assume so . am i -- am i missing something here , flo ? like , i thought you and steffy , like , hit it off , and everything really clicked and -- and all that . flo : we did . yeah . i mean , she -- she 's great . i got really good vibes from her and everything . wyatt : yeah . well , i 'm sure she feels the same way about you , right ? like , you 're phoebe 's birth mom . you know , you -- you gave kelly a little sister and made their family complete . now , would n't it be great if you could just -- if you could see for yourself what -- what you made possible for them ? flo : i mean , everyone does say how great of a mom she is , and how happy they all are . wyatt : yeah . and now that liam 's back , i mean , that 's great for kelly and phoebe and -- and -- flo : y - you 're right . you 're right . yeah . i mean , now that liam 's back , he can be with the girls , and i guess that 's a good thing , and phoebe 's in a good place , and she 's safe ... wyatt : yeah . flo : but , you know , i just -- i just ca n't help thinking about the future and her future and how everything is gon na work out , and ... wyatt : flo . flo : maybe it -- maybe it would be good for me to go there , you know ? wyatt : yeah . flo : see how good phoebe 's life really is . brooke : here you go . ridge : all right . thank you . brooke : i am sympathetic to thomas . he has gone through some horrible experiences . but he 's still there for douglas , and he is doing amazing things at hope for the future . but on another level , on a personal level , he 's really latched onto hope . ridge : [ snorts ] brooke : ever since he came to l.a. , he 's really focused on her , ridge . and it worries me . it 's a little obsessive . ridge : so , you think that the feelings that thomas has for hope are unhealthy ? hope : you made this for me ? thomas : heh . well , i could n't imagine anyone else wearing it for the first time . hope : uh , i 'm not sure i 'll do it justice . [ sighs ] thomas : oh , you -- you do . hope : yeah ? thomas : yeah . hope : uh , i could n't do the clasp in the back . thomas : oh , let me . what do you think ? hope : it looks amazing . it feels amazing . thomas , i know you said this is a prototype , but every seam , every detail ... thomas : perfect . hope : it really is . thank you . for taking the time to do this for me . thomas : yeah . well , you , uh -- you 're worth it . and this design captures your strength and your vibrance . the beginning of a new adventure . i want to get you out of that cabin and back into life . you 're moving forward . and i want to help you keep moving forward , okay ? we can do it together . i 'll be with you every step of the way . liam : so , just got a text from wyatt . they 're gon na be here any second . steffy : liam , i - i -- i know i should n't be tense . flo wanted this adoption as much as i did . but she 's -- she 's a logan now . she 's not alone in this world . she has this big , accepting family . liam : we have a perfect little family . because of flo . like , she 's literally the reason that phoebe 's gon na grow up now with a big sister and an amazing mom .

[ scene_break ] bo : what are you implying ? officer hammond : with all due respect , you were driving the car that killed your son . bo : like hell i was ! you screwed up your investigation ! they should have given this case to experienced cops . officer daniels : we did everything by the book . hope : bo would never leave the scene of an accident . so whatever you think you 've figured out , you are wrong . bo was not driving the car that hit zach . [ scene_break ] like sands through the hourglass , so are the days of our lives . [ scene_break ] belle : you 're right . whoever killed zach has to be punished . i mean , an accident is one thing , but hitting a child and then just driving away like it 's nothing -- who would do that ? shawn d. : i do n't know . i do n't know , but right now , you have to stay focused on claire and the transplant , okay ? we both do . belle : you 're amazing . you just lost your brother and you 're worried about my daughter . shawn d. : she 's my goddaughter . she and i have a special connection .

[ scene_break ] max : why do you think it 's your fault zach 's dead ? chelsea : because ... max : because what ? chelsea : the accident i had tonight . i thought that i hit a pothole , but it was so -- it was so dark , and what if i ... ? max : no , no , no , you did n't . you could n't . chelsea : i overheard the cops talking to bo and hope , and they said that they think that his suv was involved in a hit - and - run , and if it was , then ... then that means . max : if it was n't ... you 're the driver that killed zach . [ scene_break ] [ both panting ] sami : oh , god . oh , lucas . lucas : wow . that was incredible . sami : that was better than incredible . lucas : [ chuckles ] that was better than ever . [ exhales deeply ] sami : lucas , why are you looking at me like that ? lucas : i 'm trying to figure you out . figure out what you 're up to and what you 're really doing here . sami : i told you . i do n't know . i must have sleepwalked here . i did it a lot when i was a kid . lucas : yeah , i 'm supposed to believe you sleepwalked into my apartment , climbed into bed with me , and started kissing me ? sami : oh , and do n't forget that you were kissing me back , and a whole lot more . how about that ? lucas : i do n't know . maybe i was sleeping , too . sami : well , you 're awake now , and i know that look . so why do n't you tell me what you 're thinking ? lucas : i could ask you the same thing . sami : i asked you first . you do n't even have to say it . i think i know . having me in your bed again and kissing me -- you regret breaking up with me , do n't you ? [ scene_break ] chelsea : i do n't know what happened , max . it was so dark and i was just reaching for my cellphone and i only took my eyes off the road for one second . max : that 's all it takes , chelsea . chelsea : oh , my god , what if i accidentally killed my own little brother ? max : we do n't know that yet . chelsea : i would never be able to ever forgive myself . oh , my god , and bo and hope ... they would go ballistic . he would disown me . [ scene_break ] bo : let me see this so - called `` proof . `` officer daniels : as we said , we got a call that somebody saw an suv being towed not far from the crime scene . we tracked down the vehicle , ran the plates and the vin . it 's yours . officer hammond : we just got the report from forensics . the tracks at the scene match the treads on the vehicle perfectly . officer daniels : plus the black paint and broken parking light left behind match the damage to your suv . officer hammond : it 's pretty conclusive , detective . no room for misinterpretation . hope : this ca n't be happening . it 's not true . it ca n't be true . bo , tell them . tell them you did n't do this . oh , my god , bo , tell me you did n't do this . tell me you did n't kill our baby ! this ca n't be happening . bo ! [ scene_break ] bo : stay with her . jennifer : you got to calm down , honey . [ scene_break ] bo : i was n't driving that suv . officer hammond : okay , then who was ? [ scene_break ] lexie : the transplant is going to be particularly risky because the recipient had to wait so long for a liver . wipe . [ machines beeping ] i 'd given up hope on her , even suggested her parents remove her from life support . if they had listened to me ... okay , clamp . [ sighs ] isaac ... sweetheart , you 're doing a beautiful thing . you 're giving claire the gift of life . if god had to take you , at least he 's giving us a miracle -- your liver being a match for claire . okay . o.r . 2 . nurse : dr. goldberg said you 'd want an update on the recipient 's condition . lexie : yeah . nurse : she 's been bleeding quite a bit during the surgery . we 've given her blood and ffb , but she 's still bleeding . now her pressure 's dropping . dr. goldberg 's not optimistic about the transplant . i 'm sorry . [ scene_break ] philip : thank god zach 's liver was a match for claire 's . that 's the miracle in all this , because if it had n't been -- shawn d. : then they both could have died . philip : yeah . belle : it makes sense that zach would be a match for claire . mimi : you know , they share the same genes . i mean , because they 're brothers and if one brother 's blood matched , then the other brother 's -- [ scene_break ] bonnie : i 'm sorry . i do n't mean to barge in , i just -- i want to tell you i 'm praying for your little girl . belle : thank you , mrs. lockhart . bonnie : oh , come here , sweetie . you hang in there , okay ? both of you . i know how awful this feels right now , but trust me , years from now , this is gon na be one of those family stories you tell that will make claire roll her eyes and say , `` not that one again . `` belle : [ chuckles ] i hope so . bonnie : yeah . you just keep believing . philip : we will . bonnie : 'cause that 's what your daughter needs right now -- her mommy and daddy praying for her . shawn ... i 'm so sorry about zach . shawn d. : thank you , mrs. lockhart . bonnie : you were the best older brother a little guy could ever have . i know how much he loved you and how much you loved him , too . and mimi loved zach , too . did n't you , honey ? i need to borrow you for a minute , okay ? excuse us . [ scene_break ] mimi : what do you think you 're doing ? bonnie : saving you from yourself . mimi : i do n't need saving . bonnie : the hell you do n't . if i had n't walked in when i did ... i 'm your mother , mimi . i know what you were thinking . you were wondering why shawn and zach were a match for claire and philip was n't , were n't you ? mimi : do you blame me ? bonnie : yes . because if you start asking questions like that out loud , you can just kiss your fiancé goodbye forever . [ scene_break ] shawn d. : zach knew claire was sick . that 's why he wanted her to have his blanket . philip : zach was a special kid . shawn d. : yeah . yeah , he was . he wanted to do whatever he could to help claire . and now he is . [ scene_break ] officer hammond : do you know who was driving your suv ? bo : i got ta check on my wife . officer hammond : we 're not leaving until we get a full statement . [ scene_break ] hope : did you clear it up ? did you tell them there 's no way you could have done this ? bo : oh , yeah . yeah , um , but i 'm gon na need to talk to them some more . hope : about what ? bo : they 're rookies . they need help with this investigation . hope : well , i need you right now . bo : i know . i wo n't be long . hey , why do n't you and jen get some air ? go for a walk or something . jennifer : i think that 's a great idea . come on , hope . bo : i love you . hope : i love you , too , so much . bo : and you know that i would never do anything to hurt our children . hope : of course i know that , but why would they say those horrible things ? bo : i know . they 're just doing their job . hope : he was our baby . bo : i 'll see you in a couple minutes . hope : [ sighs ] jennifer : come on . come on . [ scene_break ] officer hammond : look , we 're really sorry about this , detective brady , but we have to follow the regulations . bo : yeah . officer hammond : which is why we need to get a full statement . if someone borrowed your car tonight , we have to know who it was . bo : yeah . [ clears throat ] i got to talk to abe carver . he and his wife raised zach the first year of his life , and he 's grieving . officer hammond : a few minutes , but do n't leave the area . [ scene_break ] bo : abe ? abe : hey . officer daniels : it 's a simple question . why does he keep avoiding it ? abe : i 'm so sorry , buddy . i 'm so sorry . bo : look , he was your son before he was mine . abe : yeah , well , uh , are there new leads ? bo : a couple of rookies caught the case . they 're here now . abe : yeah , i spoke to them briefly . but what are they doing still here instead of out in the field looking for leads ? bo : they think they found their perp -- me . abe : what ? bo : they got evidence that proves -- it proves it was my suv that hit zach . abe : yours ? bo : abe , i was n't driving . abe : w - was it stolen ? bo : no . abe : bo , you 're not making sense . could you have lent it to someone ? [ scene_break ] max : if you are the one who hit zach , bo disowning you is the least of your worries . you could go to jail , chelsea . chelsea : even if i did it , i did n't know that i did it . max : you knew you hit something . chelsea : max , you have to help me . max : how ? chelsea : i do n't know . i do n't know . get me out of salem . right now , please . [ scene_break ] abe : this is serious , bo . now , i do n't know who you 're trying to protect , and i 'm not sure i want to , but you ca n't play games with this . and whoever was driving that car is looking at charges of vehicular homicide . so , now , you tell me . who was driving that car that killed your son ? [ scene_break ] hope : i feel like i 'm trapped in this nightmare that keeps getting worse and i ca n't wake up from it . my god , nothing makes any sense . it 's just like everything 's spinning out of control . jennifer : listen , that is why you need to hold onto everything that you know is true . hope : i do n't even know what that is anymore . jennifer : yes , you do . you do . your husband loves you and you love bo and you know that he would never do anything to hurt you or your children . you know that . hope : no , of course he would n't . jennifer : exactly . hope : but the police said there 's proof that it was his car . who else could have been driving it ? jennifer : i do n't know , but that is not something that you need to worry about right now . hope : yes , i do , because whoever it was killed my son . [ scene_break ] chelsea : bo 's staring at me , max . he knows . oh , my god . i have to go . max : you ca n't just run away , chelsea . chelsea : i have to . max : no , it 'll just make you look more guilty . chelsea : i ca n't stay here . what am i supposed to tell him ? max : the truth , which i 'm sure he probably knows anyway -- that it was an accident . you had no idea you hit zach . chelsea : no , i did n't . not at all . if i did , i would have stopped . i would have called 911 . i would have made sure he was okay . max : exactly , exactly . chelsea : but whether i know or not is irrelevant , max . i did it . zach is dead . god , what am i gon na do ? max : well , first off , you need to talk to a lawyer , okay ? chelsea : i really am gon na go to prison , are n't i ? maybe for the rest of my life . my own dad is gon na arrest me .

[ scene_break ] belle : [ inhales sharply ] shawn d. : what 's wrong ? belle : i just got a really awful feeling about claire . philip : honey , you 're just nervous . that 's all . we all are . belle : we already lost zach tonight . we ca n't -- we ca n't lose claire , too . philip : we 're not going to . all right ? listen to me . you have to stay positive now . you 're the one who said that , remember ? you said , `` i only want positive thoughts and prayers in here . `` that was you . the doctors gave up on her . they wanted to take her off life support , let her go . but you would n't . you kept believing . now , she is going to get through this . she 's held on way too long not to . do you understand me ? shawn d. : philip , you 're right . some good has got to come of zach 's death , otherwise ... and claire has a long life ahead of her , and she 's got two terrific parents who love her more than anything .

[ sighs ] the question you need to ask yourself is , `` do you love shawn ? `` mimi : you know i do . bonnie : then you need to focus all your attention on helping him through this . sweetheart , the poor guy just lost his brother . he needs his fiancé 's unwavering support . mimi : you 're right . bonnie : mama 's always right . who was it who told you that shawn brady was the man for you way before you wanted to admit it ? mimi : you , but -- bonnie : no `` buts . `` sweetheart , look at me . look at me . you get yourself together and get that cute butt in there with him . shawn ca n't be claire 's father . please , god , do n't do this to me ... or to mimi .

[ scene_break ] officer hammond : we 're not leaving here till bo brady either gives himself up for running down his kid or tells us who else was driving his car tonight . officer daniels : if he wo n't , that 's obstruction of justice . officer hammond : exactly . this is our first high - profile case . i 'm not blowing it . officer daniels : me neither . someone 's going down for killing that kid , and we 're gon na figure out who .

[ scene_break ] [ door closes ] sami : [ sighs ] damn it . lucas does want me back . i know he does . but it 's too late . because now i am going to get austin . he will be mine . and once austin takes over carrie 's company , she 's never gon na speak to him again . and then i will become mrs. austin reed . and you are the one , lucas , who is gon na wind up alone and miserable . [ scene_break ] lucas : sami can dream about austin all she wants . there 's no way he 's ever gon na get involved with her again . as soon as my brother takes over highstyle , he can kiss his future with carrie goodbye , and we 'll live happily ever after . and sami and austin ... will end up all alone .

[ scene_break ] hope : i have to find out the truth . jennifer : no , the only thing you have to do right now is lie down and get some rest . hope : no , i need to find out who killed my baby . [ scene_break ] officer hammond : i do n't mean any disrespect mr . carver , but you 're not the police commander anymore , and bo brady may be a member of the police force , but he 's also the prime suspect in the hit - and - run that killed his son . abe : bo did n't do this . officer daniels : maybe , but we think he knows who did . abe : just give him a little time to deal with his family . officer daniels : he ca n't keep putting us off . either he answers our questions or we take him to jail for obstruction .

lucas and sami 's lovemaking turns out to only be lucas ' fantasy . in an attempt to get the other to admit first that they want to make love , they withhold their own desires for each other .

[ exhales deeply ] i ca n't believe god would take that precious little boy . [ sniffles ] it was hard enough when we had to give him up when we found out the baby we 'd adopted really belonged to bo and hope , but at least then ... abe : i know . we could still watch him grow up , be a part of his life . lexie : but this time ... abe : look ... sweetheart , you know , maybe you should have one of the other doctors do this operation . lexie : no , no , i , uh , i have to do it . this way , i 'll know that it 's not only done carefully , but that it is done with love . abe : are you sure you 're up to this ? lexie : yeah , yeah . [ sighs ] i could n't save zach , but i have to make sure that his liver saves claire ... so belle and philip wo n't lose their baby , too . [ scene_break ] belle : it just seems so unfair , you know ? we finally get our miracle and you and your family have to suffer . shawn d. : no . belle : i 'm just ... shawn d. : if claire makes it , it 's like zach can live on in a way . philip : i totally agree , but i ca n't just wait around here . i got to go find out some information . see if they started the surgery , anything , okay ? i 'll be right back . i 'll let you know if i find out anything , all right ? belle : okay . [ sniffles ] oh , god . zach was the best . mimi : he sure was . belle : he used to always have a hug and a smile for me . i really loved him . shawn d. : he loved you , too , and claire . belle : [ sniffles ] mimi : i 'm gon na go get some water .

[ scene_break ] chelsea : god , it just could n't have been me . it just could n't have been . [ thud ] chelsea : what the hell was that ? oh , my god . [ screams ] [ scene_break ] chelsea : oh , god . max : hey . mom always said there 's nothing like a cup of hot chocolate . chelsea : i do n't want any hot chocolate , okay ? ! max : look , we 're all upset about zach dying , chelsea . chelsea : you do n't understand . this was all my fault . [ scene_break ] bo : what are you implying ? officer hammond : with all due respect , you were driving the car that killed your son . bo : like hell i was ! you screwed up your investigation ! they should have given this case to experienced cops . officer daniels : we did everything by the book . hope : bo would never leave the scene of an accident . so whatever you think you 've figured out , you are wrong . bo was not driving the car that hit zach . [ scene_break ] like sands through the hourglass , so are the days of our lives . [ scene_break ] belle : you 're right . whoever killed zach has to be punished . i mean , an accident is one thing , but hitting a child and then just driving away like it 's nothing -- who would do that ? shawn d. : i do n't know . i do n't know , but right now , you have to stay focused on claire and the transplant , okay ? we both do . belle : you 're amazing . you just lost your brother and you 're worried about my daughter . shawn d. : she 's my goddaughter . she and i have a special connection . [ scene_break ] bonnie : shawn is your fiancé , not belle 's . mimi : i know that . bonnie : so get back in there and stand by him in his time of need . do n't let his ex - girlfriend be the one to score the sympathy points . mimi : mom , shawn 's brother just died and belle 's baby is about to get a transplant that may or may not save her life . whether or not i stand by my man at this particular minute is damn irrelevant . bonnie : you 're right . i must have sounded totally heartless . [ sighs ] but i 'm not . i 'm just devastated about what happened to poor , little zach . if anything like that happened to you or one of your brothers , i do n't think i 'd ever get over it . and as for claire , i have prayed to every saint i can think of that this transplant is a success , but that does n't change the matter at hand . belle should be crying on philip 's shoulder about their sick baby , and you should be comforting shawn about zach . now march back in there and do your mama proud . mimi : mom -- bonnie : show your sexy fiancé how good your shoulder feels before he gets even cozier with his ex - girlfriend . [ scene_break ] mimi : hey . shawn d. : hey . mimi : how are you doing ? i know . how do i think you 'd be doing ? i 'm sorry . this is just all so awful , i do n't even know what to say . shawn d. : you do n't have to say anything . just being here means so much to me .

[ scene_break ] shawn d. : well , it 's gon na work . it 's got to 'cause some good has got to come out of zach 's death . belle : we will never forget what we owe him and your family . philip : i do n't know how your parents are coping . i mean , after everything we 've been through here , there 's nothing worse than losing a child .

when nicole walked in the living room of victor 's house , she found out that victor knows about vivian being in the coffin . victor was thrilled that brady came up with the brilliant plan to bury vivian . bo was at sami 's apartment to question sami about ej . stefano was n't convinced that arianna would help ej over rafe . rafe tried to get arianna to keep sami 's secret , but arianna did n't care to listen . she was convinced that sami was wrong to shoot ej despite her reason for doing it . ej wanted to find information to keep his children . stefano intimated that he should run away with the kids , but he refused . he was convinced that arianna would help him . bo wanted to question sami about ej violating a court order . he wanted to know why she did n't tell him or roman what ej did . when rafe said sami would get killed if arianna told ej what she knew , she offered to go to the police . rafe laughed it off and told her that it would be her word against his and sami 's word . arianna was disappointed that rafe would call her a liar . he said he would do it to protect sami . sami told bo that ej only held sydney for a couple of minutes and that was it . he tried to warn her that ej was breaking the law by violating the court order . he was determined to do something to stop him . victor decided not to let vivian out of the coffin because brady and nicole would go to jail . arianna was through talking to rafe when he was willing to call her a liar . a police officer showed up at the dimera mansion to arrest ej . bo wanted to question ej when he got to the police station . sami wanted to put a stop to people lying for her . she called arianna so she could talk to her . arianna did n't want to hear what she had to say , but agreed to talk to her . brady gave victor the remote so he could talk to vivian . isabella visited brady to talk to him about what he 's doing to vivian . he tried to justify what he did to vivian by telling her what vivian did to her memory . victor taunted vivian by letting her know she 's going to pay for what she did .

[ scene_break ] rafe : ari , i -- i am asking you . listen to me , i am asking you for the last time . keep what you found out about sami to yourself . arianna : what i found out about sami is that she shot someone , and you want me to bury that ? rafe : we 've been over and over this . arianna : okay , let me get this straight , rafe . sami shoots people , and it 's okay because it 's sami who did it ? rafe : because ej drove her to do it ! why is that not registering to you ? arianna : how did he drive her to do it ? okay , she found out what he did , so she walked away , she took her kids , she had you , but that was n't enough , was it ? rafe : you 're not even trying to see this through my eyes . arianna : are you telling me that you still want to make a life with a woman who just admitted that she shot her kids ' father in the head ? rafe : yes , i am . arianna : she tried to destroy ej 's life , rafe . she is gon na do the same thing to you . rafe : no , she is not . you are wrong . that is not gon na happen . arianna : i 'm sorry . i 'm not gon na let her get away with this .

[ scene_break ] rafe : ari ? ari , i want you to actually think about what you 're gon na be doing if you go talk to ej . i 'm not talking about pretending to think . i 'm talking about wrapping your mind around it , because you know stefano 's gon na find out , and he will try and have sami killed . arianna : ej would n't let that happen to the mother of his children . rafe : this guy , you 're really buying his act , are n't you ? arianna : do n't talk to me like i 'm stupid ! rafe : you know that he stole her baby and pretended that she was dead . you do n't think that he 'll try and have her killed ? arianna : i will go to the police . rafe : oh , really ? and say what ? that you overheard sami tell will that she shot ej ? that 's hearsay . it 's basically gon na be your word against hers ... and mine . arianna : you would ... you would say that i was lying . rafe : to protect sami from stefano and ej ? in a heartbeat .

[ scene_break ] viki : natalie , i 'm not judging you , i 'm merely pointing out that you are repeating old patterns . natalie : right -- that i 'm just a reckless , impulsive girl who lives to stir up trouble . viki : no , darling , no -- not anymore , at any rate . you are a beautiful and a confident and levelheaded young woman . natalie : except where it concerns men , right ? i 'm just crazy and stupid ? viki : you do n't even know this man . natalie : yes , i do . we 've talked a lot . he is just like i was before . viki : oh , no . natalie : he is , and he wants to be a better person , mom , but no one will let him . viki : no , your situation and his -- totally not the same . natalie : you know what ? you said it yourself -- you did n't know me for the first 20 years of my life . mom , i was scared and lonely , too , even when i did all those horrible , horrible things to you and jessica ? but you gave me a chance when no one else wanted to have anything to do with me , and if you had n't , i probably would still be that same person i was back then . viki : no , darling . you never did the extreme things that miles laurence has done . natalie : i would have , and you know that i was capable of it . but you had faith in me , and now it 's my turn to do the same for miles -- it 's like a pay- it - forward thing . mom , please ? if you really love me , you 'll trust my judgment on this . viki : natalie , i 'm sorry , but you 're going to have to trust my judgment on this . miles is dangerous , and you would be a lot better off without him in your life . natalie : todd has done some really horrible things . he 's lied to people , he 's hurt people -- including me -- he 's committed crimes . would it be better for you if you got him out of your life ?

[ scene_break ] todd : i thought you liked the idea of your mom and me getting married . starr : i do , and i would , if you guys could live happily ever after . but something always gets in the way . it 's like you guys are afraid of hurting yourselves , so you hurt each other first . todd : hmm . blair : i do n't know , todd -- i think we have a computer genius on our hands over here . todd : well -- blair : what ? what 'd i miss ? todd : our little girl here is becoming a very wise young lady right before our very eyes . john : whatever you and mike got up your sleeve , i 'm going to find out . rex : if you want to waste your time going after innocent people , that 's your problem . john : which makes it yours . rex : am i under arrest for accepting some lowlife 's word about a baby 's identity ? john : uh - uh . no . but you might want to be more careful where you get your information next time . rex : duly noted . can i go now ? john : the voucher ? for your belongings -- that 's what you came here for , right ? john : yeah , it 's mcbain . balsom 's on his way down to the evidence room . put a tail on him . do n't lose him .

[ cell phone camera beeps ] paul : now , what makes evie so bad ? emma : that 's the thing . when grandma watched the show with me , she explained that evie thinks with her heart , instead of her brain . that means she is n't really a bad person , even if she does bad things sometimes . paul : that 's always the party line with bad guys . is n't it , anna ? [ scene_break ] monica : tracy , what on earth are you talking about ? tracy : oh , you mean you did n't know ? monica : [ chuckles ] if michael was going to be a father , i am sure i would have heard about it way before you . tracy : is that so ? michael : uh , tracy , cut it out . um , look , grandmother , i 'm sorry you have to find out this way . monica : what -- this is true ? michael : yes , um , sabrina and i are gon na make you a great - grandmother . monica : oh , my god . tracy : monica , go easy on him . i 'm sure he did not mean ... monica : this is wonderful news ! tracy : ... to make you feel left out . monica : oh , i was just upstairs with danny . tracy : playing in my closet ! monica : and he is getting to look like jason more and more each day . and i miss jason so much . but now with this news , well , this just makes it a lot easier . [ scene_break ] dillon : it 's still a very rough cut . i 've still got to move some scenes around and add some underscoring , but what do you think ?

[ scene_break ] anna : i really , really like this costume a lot . paul : money well spent . anna : which one do you like better ? emma : i do n't know . i wish i could decide . anna : well , maybe if mr. hornsby would take his leave , i could give you my full attention . paul : but , emma , do n't you have more costumes you can show us ? anna : no . emma : one more . paul : well , go try it on ! emma : okay . anna : emma . paul : anna . let me make something perfectly clear . you are no longer special agent devane or commissioner devane . you are neither entitled nor permitted to delve into the inner workings of the police department anymore . anna : i acknowledged that just a few minutes ago , in between costumes . paul : then what were you looking for at the morgue ? anna : i told you ... twice . i ca n't help it if you choose not to believe me . paul : you know , i could have you hauled in right now for interfering with a police investigation . how would emma like that ? anna : fine . i 'm suspicious of the autopsy report . and now that rivera 's been cremated , i 'm even more convinced that something is wrong . paul : such as ... ? anna : i do n't think the body you found is carlos rivera . [ scene_break ] nikolas : you know , you and i always seem to be doing this , uh , complicated dance around each other . i 'm not sure i 'm ready to ... define it , but is n't it obvious that i have feelings for you ? hayden : so , you ca n't put your feelings into words . is that it ? nikolas : something like that , yes . hayden : actions speak louder , anyway . take me to that wedding . nikolas : [ chuckles ] why -- why do you want to go so bad ? i mean , elizabeth cornered you and yelled at you at the hospital . you do n't even get along . hayden : well , jake more or less threatened to put your head into a wall , and you 're still planning on going . nikolas : correct , but elizabeth is my very dear friend . hayden : and it 's very noble of you to want to be there to support her . do n't you want someone there to support you ? nikolas : why do you want to go to this wedding so bad ? i must know . hayden : for the same reason that i wanted a job -- to feel like i 'm back in the land of the living , to mingle with people and talk and laugh and celebrate . nikolas : okay , but why there ? hayden : because it 's the first wedding on the port chuck social calendar . i mean , i do n't care who 's getting married . i just want to dance . and not in that complicated , metaphorical way you say that we do around each other . i just -- i just want to have fun again . is that too much to ask ? nikolas : no . okay . so , will you , hayden , accompany me to elizabeth and jake 's wedding ? hayden : i need to check my calendar . nikolas : [ chuckles ] whatever . hayden : i 'd be honored .

[ scene_break ] paul : you 're saying the body was n't rivera 's . anna : the one that was conveniently incinerated ? yeah , that 's what i think . paul : i see . uh , are you also saying that the medical examiner and everyone else involved in identifying the body was wrong ? that everybody there had made the same mistake ? anna : possibility . paul : rivera had a record . the autopsy report concluded that the body was his . the id was found on his body -- his own id . now , why would you question that ? anna : when you 've spent as many years as i have policing , you develop an instinct , and mine is telling me that something is off . paul : are you saying that someone wanted to make it appear that the body was rivera 's ? anna : and then they made the body disappear before anyone could prove otherwise . paul : well , it 's a fun theory , but why would someone do that ? anna : i could n't begin to tell you . maybe someone came to a conclusion that they wanted . or maybe the investigation just was n't thorough enough . paul : more incompetence . anna : everyone makes mistakes , paul . paul : you know , now that i think about it , you 're in a unique position to know if that was really carlos ' body , are n't you ? [ scene_break ] tracy : michael , you and your other family 's business is now sabrina 's problem . you are getting married , are n't you ? michael : um , you know , we 're actually on hold with that . tracy : why ? oh , wait , i know . sabrina : wait , you do ? tracy : mm - hmm . michael 's letting his mother decide who he can marry . michael : look , my mother has nothing to do with this . sabrina : and actually , i 'm the one who told michael to wait . tracy : oh . perhaps michael 's recent activities with the mob has put you off ? sabrina : it 's not that . michael : i am not involved in the mob ! tracy : oh ! are you a coffee importer ? monica : oh , shut up , tracy ! just stay out of their business ! tracy : excuse me , monica ! he is family ! that baby is also gon na be family , making all of this my business ! monica : well , even if he was involved , which he has flatly denied -- tracy : and what 's he gon na do , admit it ? monica : i still do n't think that is any reason why sabrina would refuse to marry him . tracy : oh , of course . you 're absolutely right . [ muffled ] why would she refuse to marry a man who 's neck - deep in mob business ? michael : like you were how many times ? tracy : enough to know it 's a really bad idea . monica : okay , look , since michael has denied being involved with any of sonny 's activities , there has to be another reason that sabrina wants to wait . sabrina ? michael : okay , look , ca n't we just all be happy that another quartermaine is coming into the family ? i mean , come on . monica : well , of course , we can . tracy : i 'm with you there . monica : so , uh , when are you due ? sabrina : um [ stammers ] excuse me . i just need to get some air .

[ scene_break ] dante : i tell you to stay away from lulu , so you just stare at her picture instead ? dillon : i am editing my movie . dante : lulu 's not in your movie . there 's only one reason why you 'd have that picture up on your screen . dillon : you 're right . there is a reason . lulu accidentally walked into my shot . dante : and you decided to just pause it and stare at her face on the screen for a really , really long time . dillon : you know what , i am sick of this , okay ? where do you get off telling me anything ? you cheated on your wife . dante : and you said you were n't gon na say anything to her . dillon : maybe i changed my mind .

julian gets to spend some time alone with baby leo at his new house with alexis , while she shows him how to change diapers and care for a baby ; something he has absolutely no experience with . he invites sam and lucas to come to the new house and visit their baby brother . meanwhile , olivia wants to make peace with julian but also believes she needs spiritual guidance . she finds dante and lulu at the hospital and protests to them that she knows they have perfect morals and are exemplary role models for a child . dante is clearly not uncomfortable to hear his mom tell him that , realizing that he 's keeping a secret from everyone that he slept with his wife 's cousin . nikolas and hayden are at the floating rib when they run into sam . he reminds sam he could have her and jake arrested for breaking into his house and hacking his computer but she reminds him jake could do the same to him for illegally testing jake 's dna . she does , however , inform her cousin that jake has decided , against her recommendation , to call it off . she informs nikolas that jake is going to marry elizabeth and have a future with her regardless of what nikolas may know or think he knows . meanwhile , nikolas is growing closer to hayden . she still suspects nothing about him nor reveals that she remembers anything that she remembered before she got shot and lost her memory . sabrina declines michael 's marriage proposal , telling him they need to get to know each other better and should not get married just because she 's pregnant . yet , there may be another reason . she does not want to reveal to anyone exactly when she is due or when the baby was conceived paul hornsby goes to talk to anna after finding out she went to the morgue without proper authorization and asks her what she was looking for . she admits to him she 's suspicious of the autopsy report and now that carlos rivera has been cremated , it gives her more cause for suspicion and she admits to him she does not believe the body in question even was carlos rivera . he finds out that she suspects that somebody falsified the murder investigation to cover up something they do n't want anyone to find out . still , nobody has a clue that sloane has been murdered much less that paul murdered him . yet he indicates that he more than likely knows that she murdered carlos , and therefore it may not be in her best interest to double - cross him knowing what he knows .. maxie brings the big check nina wrote to the haunted star but tells dillon she will tear it up unless he tells her this `` secret `` he 's told everyone he knows about dante . he `` distracts `` her and does not reveal it yet he clearly has lulu on the brain . she and dante come by and dante confronts dillon . they have their private conversation about the big secret , which both maxie and lulu are still unaware of . in their heated argument , dillon concludes he 's done keeping dante 's secret and he announces to lulu there is something he needs to tell her .

[ normal voice ] listen . right ? now , did you make note ... ? [ baby coos ] alexis : right , well , he 's telling you , as well , that you need to secure this very tightly so nothing leaks out . you got that , right ? okay ? all right . now i 'm done . that 's how you do it . julian : yeah , i think leo will have his driver 's license before i master this . alexis : i promise you you will get the hang of this in no time at all . [ sing- song voice ] right , leo ? right , you little munchkin ? julian : [ grunts ] alexis : [ normal voice ] okay , now , listen , i never thought that we would inaugurate the rug like this in our new , little love nest , but that 's okay . julian : [ sighs ] alexis , i 'm ... so sorry for doing this to you .

[ scene_break ] maxie : [ sighs ] hey . dillon : oh , hey , maxie . maxie : are n't you gon na ask me about my fundraising efforts ? dillon : uh , has anyone donated ? maxie : actually , yes . we 've gotten over a dozen hits on the fabphilanthropy website . dillon : enough to fund our movie ? maxie : not yet . but this will certainly help . dillon : [ chuckles ] that is amazing ! maxie : yeah , and you 're not gon na get it until you tell me that terrible secret you know about dante . [ scene_break ] sam : i ca n't talk about this right now . my father 's expecting me . he 's hungry . nikolas : i get that sneaking around and stealing information is your job . sam : you make it sound so sordid . nikolas : but how could you do this to me , sam ? we 're cousins . sam : you say that like it actually means something to you , but i have been very up front with you , nikolas . i believe that you know more than what you 're saying about who jake really is . and i also believe that hayden -- her memory is not as compromised as she claims , which means she probably knows , too . nikolas : okay , so , that gives you and jake the right to break into my home ? sam : what gave you the right to run a dna test on him ? nikolas : if you and jake do not give this up , i promise you i will press charges on this . sam : oh , really ? well , jake will press them right back , because you violated his privacy by running that dna test . [ sighs ] why do n't we just -- why do n't we call this a draw ? nikolas : [ scoffs ] hayden : you know , sam 's right . why not make peace ? offer her congratulations on her engagement . nice rock , by the way . sam : thank you . look , i have somewhere to be , and since the two of you are obviously not gon na let me go until i tell you ... hayden : okay . i 'll bite . tell us what ? sam : your strategy worked . [ sighs ] jake was so discouraged after you out- maneuvered us that he decided to back off , against my advice . hayden : not to mention your fee . sam : i do n't charge my friends . jake is gon na marry elizabeth and go on with his life . and you 're not gon na have to worry about him uncovering whatever it is that you 're hiding about who he really is .

[ scene_break ] michael : uh , well , i guess , i kind of , uh , caught you off guard when i popped the question . sabrina : yeah , you could say that . michael : you -- you still have n't told me why you turned me down . sabrina : michael , it 's too soon for us to get married . we have n't even been together for that long yet . i moved in here , what , five minutes ago . we could find out that we are completely incompatible . michael : yeah , i do n't think we have to worry about that . sabrina : you know what i mean . we 're not strong enough as a couple yet . and besides [ sighs ] i do n't want to drag you into this . [ scene_break ] alexis : why would you apologize ? julian : well , you know , i built this house for us to be together , to share a life together , and now all we 're sharing [ sing - song voice ] is little leo and dirty diapers , hmm ? alexis : okay . let 's give him back . julian : funny . [ both chuckle ] alexis : this is the best thing that could happen . plans were made to be broken , and this curve ball is fantastic , because you get to be the father that you 've always wanted to be . julian : you sure you 're okay with this ? alexis : i 'm more than sure . watching you with your son makes me love you even more . julian : [ baby voice ] well , how much do i love this little baby ?

[ scene_break ] olivia : i want to keep leo safe , body and soul , from whatever julian brings into his life . i want him to grow up with goodness and with grace and with god . and , dante , i know that you go to mass every sunday . lulu , i -- not so much , but i know that you have a good heart and a -- and a generous spirit . lulu : i try . olivia : no , you do more than try . you love my son and my grandson with all your heart . so i know that you have faith . lulu : believe it or not , i do . what other explanation is there for our being able to bring another child into the world and to know in my heart that our embryo will survive this process ? olivia : you see that ? you see ? i knew you were a believer . i just love you to bits . god , and -- and you -- you 're my first - born son , so i 'm gon na gush here for a minute . dante : you need to gush away . olivia : dante , you are the best man that i know . you 've got morals . you 've got ethics . and a lot of people think those two things are the same thing , but they 're not . they 're not . and you have both . dante : [ sighs ] olivia : you are a loving father , a perfect husband to lulu . and i know that the two of you can guide leo through all the wickedness and the temptation that i know that he 's gon na face . so i 'm asking you -- will you be leo 's godparents ? [ scene_break ] maxie : nathan 's sister was kind enough to write this huge check to save our bacon and launch me into indie - film stardom , but i swear to you i will tear it up if you do n't tell me what you know . dillon : i thought you were sure i was lying . maxie : i was just saying that to calm lulu down . you should not have taunted her like that . dillon : yeah , well , you might as well go ahead and tear that check up , because -- unlike you -- i can keep a secret . maxie : i despise secrets . dillon : clearly . that 's why you have such a hard time holding onto them . maxie : look , whatever it is is obviously tearing you up inside , so spill it . what is this big story about dante ? dillon : fine . i 'll tell you ... after i show you something .

[ keyboard clacking ] maxie : i did n't expect you to confirm it . dillon : ah , well , then let that be a lesson to you . if you do n't want to know something , do n't ask . now , i have been working on the sizzle reel . i 'm hoping to show it at lulu 's halloween fundraiser . maxie : that 's great . dillon , we can post it online and see if it generates any more interest . this is huge . dillon : here 's hoping . come on . take a look . see how terrific you are . [ scene_break ] anna : we 've already discussed carlos at length . paul : well , you still seem to be oddly interested in rivera 's corpse . anna : i beg your pardon ? paul : i know you 've been poking around at the morgue , asking questions about the autopsy findings . anna : well , carlos killed duke . naturally , i 'd want to know more about how he died . paul : i think there 's more to it than that . [ scene_break ] michael : sabrina , you 're not dragging me into anything . hey , we 're having a baby . we are in this together , okay ? at least , i want us to be . in every way . for life . sabrina : [ sighs ] michael . michael : what ? can i -- can i help it that i want our baby to grow up with two parents ? look , i thought you wanted that , too . sabrina : no , i do want that , too . but , look , i do n't want to get married just because i 'm pregnant , you know ? and i just do n't think that that 's enough of a reason for us to decide to spend the rest of our lives together . michael : sabrina , that is not the only reason i want to marry you . sabrina : okay , but it is the reason that you asked . michael : maybe . but i would have asked you eventually . sabrina : really ? michael : yeah . sabrina : when ? michael : well , when we inevitably discovered that we are compatible with each other and that we built a strong foundation as a couple . but the reasons would have still been the same , mainly that we love each other . sabrina : [ sighs ] michael , i 'm just not sure that that 's enough . michael : yeah , i think it is , sabrina , and i will show you . sabrina : oh , really ? michael : yes . sabrina : how ? michael : i do n't know . but when i 'm done , you will marry me , sabrina santiago . sabrina : marriage is about compromise , right ? michael : uh , i 've heard that , but i 've never really witnessed it . why ? sabrina : well , i 'm gon na propose something to you . how about we take the time to get to know each other better ? we see what it 's like living here together , see how we handle the pregnancy and all of the pressures that come ... tracy : monica ! sabrina : ... living with your ... tracy : do n't walk away from me ! monica : i am walking away from you , tracy , because i 'm not interested in what you 're talking about . if i was interested , i would have stuck around . boy , you really have to pick up on some social cues . tracy : you want some social cues ? monica : hi ! tracy : here 's a social cue ! monica : sabrina ! michael ! michael : hi , grandma . sabrina : dr. quartermaine . tracy : monica , i 'm simply asking that you keep danny out of my room . monica : oh , you 're just cranky because danny got upstairs into your closet and played hide - and - seek with your vast collection of support hose . tracy : it 's the principle of the thing . of course , i might be willing to bend the rules when sabrina and michael 's baby comes along . [ scene_break ] sam : you can both relax . jake is n't gon na expose you . there will be no more accusations or break - ins . the case is closed . nikolas : that 's fine . that 's great . and i do n't want to hear another word about this . sam : [ scoffs ] why would you ? the only people left with anything to say on this subject are the two of you , and you 're not talking , and you clearly do n't remember anything , so ... nikolas : then it 's agreed . we can go to elizabeth 's wedding and have a good time and be happy for her , and that 's that , right ? sam : yeah . right . i mean , i know i will . but you , on the other hand -- you 'll probably be sitting in a corner all alone because you 've made so many enemies . bye . hayden : do you think she 's telling the truth , that she and jake will really back off ? nikolas : i know my cousin . she was sincere .

[ scene_break ] anna : if i was n't trying to find out more about what happened to carlos , why would i be there at the morgue making inquiries ? paul : you tell me . anna : i just did . look , da hornsby -- paul : please . paul . anna : thank you . i - i do n't know if you 've ever lost someone you love to a violent crime , specifically a mob hit . obviously , it 's very distressing and painful , and i have been trying -- rather desperately , i 'm afraid -- to find some form of closure . and i thought if i could see carlos ' body , i might get some answers , or at least the right questions , and then get some measure of peace . that 's all . paul : i 'm not buying that . now , that is one wicked costume . what is your name ? emma : i 'm evie -- the evil queen 's daughter . paul : princess evie , do you mind if i take your picture ? emma : is that okay , grandma ? anna : i suppose . paul : go stand next to your grandma . anna : [ groans ] paul : beautiful . beautiful . [ laughs ] especially love the blue hair . emma : i love blue . otherwise , i would n't be trick - or - treating as somebody bad . [ cell phone camera beeps ] paul : now , what makes evie so bad ? emma : that 's the thing . when grandma watched the show with me , she explained that evie thinks with her heart , instead of her brain . that means she is n't really a bad person , even if she does bad things sometimes . paul : that 's always the party line with bad guys . is n't it , anna ? [ scene_break ] monica : tracy , what on earth are you talking about ? tracy : oh , you mean you did n't know ? monica : [ chuckles ] if michael was going to be a father , i am sure i would have heard about it way before you . tracy : is that so ? michael : uh , tracy , cut it out . um , look , grandmother , i 'm sorry you have to find out this way . monica : what -- this is true ? michael : yes , um , sabrina and i are gon na make you a great - grandmother . monica : oh , my god . tracy : monica , go easy on him . i 'm sure he did not mean ... monica : this is wonderful news ! tracy : ... to make you feel left out . monica : oh , i was just upstairs with danny . tracy : playing in my closet ! monica : and he is getting to look like jason more and more each day . and i miss jason so much . but now with this news , well , this just makes it a lot easier . [ scene_break ] dillon : it 's still a very rough cut . i 've still got to move some scenes around and add some underscoring , but what do you think ? [ keyboard clacks ] maxie : do i have donald trump hair ? dillon : what are you talking -- no . what are you talking about ? maxie : how did i end up with a massive comb - over ? dillon : maxie , i think you 're missing the point . are you happy with your performance ? maxie : does my hair really look like that ? i need a mirror . dillon : [ chuckles ] dante : [ sighing ] all right , where are these decorations you want me to unpack ? lulu : over there . dante : okay . manual labor . it 's not okay , you know . i 'm totally fine with that .

[ keyboard clacking ] dante : what the hell are you looking at ? [ scene_break ] nikolas : so you 're angling for me to invite you to elizabeth and jake 's wedding ? hayden : maybe . [ both chuckle ] nikolas : i do n't know how the bride and groom would feel about that . i mean , neither of them seem to like you very much . hayden : oh , do n't be too busy gazing into each other 's eyes to care about little , old me . nikolas : and if they 're not ? hayden : let 's not talk about them . let 's talk about us . going to a wedding together is a big step . nikolas : yeah ? hayden : we 'd be going public . nikolas : what ? we 're in -- i mean , come on , we 're in public right now . what 's the difference ? hayden : ah , but a wedding . we 'd be official in the eyes of port charles . although you never did answer me when i asked you if i was your girlfriend . nikolas : [ sighs ] we 're living together . hayden : is that all this is ? we 're ... castle mates who make out sometimes ? [ scene_break ] lucas : ohh . sam : oh , my goodness . i ca n't believe this is your son . lucas : wow . i ca n't , either . i ca n't ... i mean , i really ca n't believe olivia lied to you about this . we were with you the day after you found out , dad . julian : [ sighs ] lucas : my god , you were a wreck . julian : well , you know what , lucas ? it 's all in the past . i 'm just glad that leo 's here with us now , right ? sam : so , you were ... able to forgive olivia ? that 's -- that 's great . julian : leo does n't need all that anger and resentment and being tugged between his parents back and forth . so it 's better this way . sam : so you 're not gon na fight for custody ? alexis : julian and olivia have agreed to share custody . julian : it 's healthier for leo this way . lucas : mm , well , that seems a little bit too good to be true , right ? sam : yeah . you 've got a pretty good dad there , leo . lucas : yeah , you sure do . and if you do n't know it yet , you will soon , 'cause we 're gon na make sure of it . [ scene_break ] monica : well , i hope sonny and carly were happy about the news . sabrina : well , mr. corinthos was very supportive . tracy : and mrs. corinthos ? michael : um , not as much , but -- tracy : good . monica : okay , uh , sonny and carly i understand . why on earth would you tell tracy before me ? sabrina : well , it was n't on purpose . tracy actually intuited that i was pregnant . i did n't ... tell her . tracy : uh - huh . but you did n't tell me i was wrong , did you ? it 's the same thing . sabrina : at the time , i had n't even told michael yet . tracy : well , i was paying attention . obviously , michael was too wrapped up in his adoptive father 's business to notice . michael : i was wrapped up in my father 's recuperation , okay ? besides one incident , i have nothing to do with my father 's business , so do n't go siccing your boyfriend on me again , okay ?

[ scene_break ] natalie : you 're the one who 's desperate . brody : okay . timeout . this is n't going anywhere good . natalie : well , she 's blaming my relationship with john ... marty : you do n't have a relationship with john . natalie : on my dead husband , and do n't you dare -- do n't you dare blame jared for any of this . in fact , if anything , he 's the reason that john turned to you and not the other way around . brody : okay . we 're not gon na solve this today , so let 's table it . natalie : she wants to talk about it , and she keeps blaming jared for all this , which she 's been doing ever since i went to her for therapy , my mistake . marty : i 'd be happy to refer you to someone else . natalie : it 's not about my problems , marty , or jared 's death or my grieving or anything other than the fact that she ca n't accept that john and i have a connection that she does not understand . marty : oh , really ? natalie : yeah . yeah , really , and if you 're so confident , then why were you so bent out of shape when you found us kissing on llantano mountain ? [ scene_break ] mrs. stevens : it 's all right , rodney . these people misunderstood . you did n't mean to upset ms. cramer and detective mcbain . come on , dear . you can tidy up my office later . john : what happened ? kelly : he crept up on me . it 's like he knew i was alone . john : maybe he did . kelly : you think he knows something about what happened to my mom ? i mean , maybe he 's the one who 's been calling me , but he ca n't speak . john : she says he ca n't speak . kelly : you think she 's lying ? john : someone has made those calls . someone wants us to believe your mother was murdered . kelly : okay , so what happened with the security tapes ? did you see anyone come into the office or my mother 's room ? john : they were taped over . kelly : what ? why ? john : security assumed your mom died of natural causes , so they had no reason to keep the tapes . kelly : that 's great . that 's great . you know what ? it is starting to look like we are never gon na find out why my mother died . john : not necessarily . [ scene_break ] marty : i think anyone would be a little bent out of shape , but i understand why you clung to john after the accident . you 'd almost been killed . i get it . natalie : and the other kiss ? when we came back home to llanview , john came over to see me . there was no one scared , no one dying , yet we were wrapped in each other 's arms kissing again . why was that , marty ? you want to explain that one away ? [ scene_break ] mrs. stevens : i 'm very sorry about your loss , kelly , but i 'm afraid i 've done everything i can to help you . and since there 's no proof that your mother has died of anything but natural causes , i 'm afraid i 'm going to have to ask you to leave . your presence is disturbing our residents . [ pager beeps ] mrs. stevens : now if you 'll excuse me ... kelly : now what ? john : keep an eye out for me , will you ? hey , rodney . hey , look . i 'm sorry about what happened in there . i thought you were trying to hurt my friend , and i realize now that maybe you were trying to reach out to her . that 's some collection you got there . may i ? let 's see . carl yastrzemski . look at that . now , that 's -- that 's pretty impressive . a ' 67 yaz . that was his triple crown year , you know ? i remember my old man , he got me the ' 68 card because he could n't find the ' 67 . yeah , yaz . he was a guy did n't do much talking either . he did n't have to . let his actions speak for him , you know what i mean ? [ scene_break ] natalie : cat got your tongue ? brody : natalie ! natalie : well , i just assumed that john , the family man , told her . no ? no . let me fill you in . john came over to see me . marty : i think i ... i think i get the picture . natalie : not if you think that the only thing that 's there is grief . and then we kissed . marty : and then what ? natalie : we were n't gon na take it any further , not until he settled things with you . marty : so you discussed our relationship ? natalie : of course . but then you conveniently got pregnant , so john decided he had to stay with you . marty : and what did you decide , natalie ? natalie : to let him go , which is not easy . and i 'm sorry , but i still think about what might have happened had you not gotten pregnant . and i know that john thinks about it , too . marty : because of your connection ? natalie : exactly . marty : connect to this . john is not gon na change his mind . he is thrilled about our baby . natalie : oh , yeah ! no , no , john he 's definitely into the baby . no doubt about it . you ? not so much . brody : natalie ! marty : no , i get it . i get it . i get it . i understand . you need to believe that . but john 's with me now . he 's not gon na change his mind . natalie : no , you 're right . john 's never gon na leave you as long as you 're pregnant . marty : yeah , thanks . natalie : oh , my god . what did i just do ? why did i say that to her ? why did n't you stop me ? uhh ! [ scene_break ] jessica : well , so what ? it does n't matter if we did n't make love . cristian : i did n't say that , jess . jessica : well , marty certainly seems to think it 's important . cristian : marty talked to you about it ? jessica : well , she keeps on going on and on about how i 'm making my brain go back to a time when i was a virgin , like i even care , but ... that 's why prom night was so important . it was supposed to be the night that i lose my virginity with you . cristian : jessica ! look , i 'm sorry if i 'm upsetting you , but we did n't make love at prom and we 're not gon na -- jessica : but now we have a second chance . do n't you see ? we can rewrite history . [ scene_break ] dani : no , no , i 'm okay . [ sniffs ] dani : i mean , if starr can take it , seeing `` todd `` up on stage acting like a maniac , then i can , too . and who knows . maybe by acting in this play and really trying to understand how starr could forgive him after everything that he 's put her and cole through , maybe it 'll help me see what she sees in him . starr : i hope so . dani : me too . 'cause right now , i hate him , and it does n't feel good . [ scene_break ] todd : you 're such a slow learner , thornhart . i mean , even what 's - her - name over here gets it , do n't you ? starr knows that whatever i do for her , i do out of love . cole : she may have forgiven you , but she 'll never trust you . you think she 's forgotten that you pushed her down the stairs ? she almost lost her baby . and what you did to my mom ... twice . no . she 'll never get past that . and if you ever , ever go near my mom again , you 'll lose starr for good . todd : you know that if starr had to choose between you and me -- cole : she already has . she chose me . look around , manning . this is her home with me . you could n't stop her from moving in . you could n't stop dani . they ran here to get away from you . [ scene_break ] destiny : `` mr. manning 's mad enough as it is that cole and starr ran away . if he finds out that cole got her pregnant ... `` matthew : `` he 's not gon na find out . `` destiny : `` he 'll kill him , markko . you know that . `` matthew : `` it 's gon na be okay . i promise . `` markko 's voice : it 'll be all right . i promise . langston 's voice : what ? what ? stop it ! what are you doing ? todd 's voice : i 'd like you to tell me where starr is or i 'm gon na kill you . [ langston screams ] langston 's voice : we do n't know where they are . we already told that to detective mcbain . todd 's voice : well , that 's detective mcbain . you 're dealing with me now . i know you helped starr run away , so ... markko 's voice : yeah , and if we did that does n't mean we know where they went . todd 's voice : i disagree . i think you do know . starr : langston ? i 'm so sorry that i put you and markko through all of that . langston : you did n't do anything . it was all your dad . [ scene_break ] todd : dani 's a separate issue , cole . cole : yeah , because you did n't get to brainwash her from birth like you did with starr . dani sees you for what you are , and she 's never gon na love you . todd : okay . but starr ... starr is mine and always will be mine . and i 'm gon na get her away from you if it 's the last thing i ever do . [ scene_break ] dani : i 'm not going anywhere with you , dad . i 'm staying with cole . mr. g. : get your hands off her , thornhart ! dani : why ca n't you just leave us alone ? mr. g. : 'cause you 're my child , and you 'll do as i say ! nate : let her go ! you 're hurting her ! mr. g. : you shut the hell up ! starr 's voice : leave him alone , dad ! cole 's voice : mr. manning , if you 'll just listen to us . starr 's voice : no ! aah ! blair 's voice : starr ! langston : hey . you okay ? starr : it just brings it all back . we could have lost hope . dani : i do n't know how they survived all of that . nate : what i want to know is why this maniac 's still walking around . langston : it 's a long story . nate : i mean , are n't you , like , scared , knowing that he 's still out there ? [ scene_break ] cole : face it . you lost . starr and i , we 're happy . we have a daughter , a home together , a life together . and nothing and no one will ever change that . todd : except me . and you know that . 'cause i 've stopped you before , and by god i 'll do it again . cole : get the hell out of my house ! hannah : cole , no ! no ! [ scene_break ] langston : maybe mr. g. was right . i should n't have written about you and cole . starr : no . he never said that . he was just worried that we could n't handle it . not that it is n't a great play or that we should n't do it . actually , i think it 's the reason we should . it would be good for us . langston : i hope so . starr : you know , do you mind if i take off ? all of this makes me really want to talk to cole , and we left things on a bad note . langston : yeah , because of me and ford . starr : does n't matter . what 's important is that we 're still together . [ scene_break ] cristian : we ca n't rewrite history , jess , even if we wanted to . and besides , we broke up after prom . jessica : but we would n't have if we 'd slept together . cristian : it 's not gon na happen . look , i have my life , and you have to find yours . and if you were smart , you 'd take another look at brody . take him to the prom . start a new chapter . jessica : are there any tickets left for the prom ? whitney : yep . how many do you want ? [ scene_break ] brody : i tried to stop you several times . natalie : i know . it 's not your fault . it 's not your fault . i was such a total bitch , i mean , and to a pregnant woman no less ! and i do n't know if that 's how john feels . i have no idea how he feels . i was just saying that to stick it to marty . brody : and you did . natalie : i know that you 're gon na say she backed me into a corner and that i was totally overreacting and that i 'm not a total beast for talking to her like that , but -- brody : actually -- natalie : you think i 'm a terrible person ? brody : no , of course not . i think you want someone you ca n't have and it 's driving you a little nuts . and believe me , i know what that 's like . [ scene_break ] kelly : john . john : rodney , my number 's on that card , okay , if you need to reach me . mrs. stevens : detective mcbain . john : yes . oh , well , i was just apologizing to the man . he deserved it . mrs. stevens : good , because i 'm certain he did n't make those calls . no one here did . kelly : mrs. stevens , please . mrs. stevens : i know how upsetting this is , losing your mother . melinda was a lovely woman and we were all very fond of her here . kelly : which is why someone has to know something . john : mrs. stevens , thank you very much for your time . you 've been very kind . mrs. stevens : i 'm sorry i could n't be of more help . kelly : that 's it ? you 're just gon na let her brush us off like that ? [ exhales ] [ scene_break ] marty : ahem . natalie 's voice : why were you so bent out of shape when you found us kissing on llantano mountain ? because deep down you know that i 'm the one he wants , that he 's only staying with you because it 's the right thing to do . [ laughing nervously ] marty : okay . natalie 's voice : if it were n't for that baby , john would be with me . [ banging keyboard ] natalie 's voice : oh , he 's into that baby . there 's no doubt about it . but you ? not so much . somehow we ended up with our arms around each other , kissing again ... again . [ books clatter to floor ] marty : huh ! natalie 's voice : he wo n't leave you , not as long as you 're pregnant . [ scene_break ] matthew : need a ride home ? destiny : in that piece of junk you call a car ? langston : i 'll see you at rehearsal . markko : hey , you need a ride home ? langston : in that piece of junk you call a car ? markko : fine . forget it . langston : no , wait . i did n't say no . markko : you freak . langston : and do n't you forget it . [ scene_break ] natalie : god , it 's not marty 's fault that she 's pregnant or that john 's sticking by her . maybe he loves her . he probably does . i do n't know . it 's just that john and i have ... we share something special . you know , we understand each other . brody : i know . natalie : and i 've lost him . brody : anything i can do to help ? natalie : no . i need to man up and apologize . brody : no . bad idea . too soon . you got ta let marty cool down . natalie : she 's gon na call john and tell him everything . brody : you ca n't stop her . natalie : whoa , guess that 's the price i pay for being a jerk . john 's gon na hate me . brody : not if he understands you the way you say he does . natalie : yeah , i guess . all right , i got ta go . brody : hey , you 're gon na leave marty alone . natalie : yeah . thanks for everything . [ scene_break ] whitney : prom tickets going fast ! cristian : whitney , did jessica buy tickets to the prom ? whitney : yep , one . cristian : just one . whitney : guess she 's flyin ' solo . cristian : hmm . [ scene_break ] john : i think buddy over there knows something . and if that was him reaching out to you on the phone , he 's gon na do it again . [ scene_break ] hannah : it 's amazing that you guys are still together , you and starr . you must really love each other . cole : we do , which is why sometimes he really gets to me . hannah : hello ! he 's terrifying . cole : hmm . look , i 'm sorry . i 'm just kind of used to it . you okay ? hannah : i 'm fine . i just -- what was i thinking , coming out here with my shirt off . i ... this is all my fault . cole : no , no . that 's just vintage todd . all right ? that has nothing to do with you . hannah : i set him off . and now you and starr have to deal with it and ... you 've been so nice to me . cole : hey , you okay ? it 's okay . [ door opens ]
starr and langston observe the freshmen playing them and their boyfriends . they both relive all that todd has done to all of them and how he terrorized starr and cole and all of their friends . meanwhile , the real todd walks in on cole and hannah right after she 's taken off her blouse when she 's spilled something on it . and he assumes that cole is cheating on starr . cole confidently tells todd that she is going to disown her father if he gives them any more grief . but starr reveals that maybe she is not entirely ok with cole 's and hannah 's friendship and the time they spend together . marty is similarly insecure about john 's commitment to her when natalie tells her that john is staying with marty only out of obligation since she is pregnant . meanwhile , john accompanies kelly to the hospital where her mother stayed and is determined to find out form a nurse and a patient what they might know about the mysterious calls kelly has gotten about her mother 's death . jessica has cristian on the brain and is still ignoring brody . brody seems to really relate to natalie 's situation with john since they both live with wanting somebody they ca n't have .
<s>[INST] starr : whitney , i want one . whitney : is n't it the best ? mr. vega did the design for the poster , and i had that guy at the mall print it up on a couple of shirts . i 'll see if i can make more . starr : good . jessica : are you selling tickets to the prom ? starr : whitney is chairing the prom . whitney : and tickets are officially on sale , so who wants to be first ? starr : me ... and then langston . langston : no . i 'm not going to the prom . starr : what ? [ scene_break ] dani : where 's mr. g. ? i want to get started . oh , i talked to my sister . she said i could borrow this dress she used to wear . i 'm a little taller , but at least for rehearsals so i can , like , channel starr . nate : so i was thinking maybe i should meet her father todd manning , you know , so i get an idea of what it was like to have this sociopath after me . matthew : do n't worry . you 'll meet him soon . nate : what do you mean ? matthew : you 're playing cole , right ? nate : yeah . matthew : opposite his daughter . trust me , once todd reads that script and sees you all over his daughter , he 's gon na come after you just like the real cole . [ scene_break ] todd : starr ? what the hell ? cole : look . hannah is just a friend , okay ? she was over here studying , okay , so just relax . oh ! uh ! hey , look . i said she was a friend . todd : cheating son of a bitch . [ scene_break ] langston : i have n't even talked to markko about it . i do n't know if he wants to go to some high - school dance . i mean -- starr : of course he wants to go . it 's our last prom . four tickets , please . langston : no . wait . uh -- mm . starr : it 'll be my treat . langston : yeah . starr : celebrate you breaking up with f - o - r -- langston : thanks ... for that . whitney : here you go . starr : thank you . come on . langston : mm - hmm .

[ scene_break ] natalie : i know that i should n't be even thinking this , much less saying it out loud . brody : natalie -- natalie : i 'm sorry . it 's just that i truly believe that john and i would 've gotten back together if marty had n't gotten pregnant with his child . marty , hey , how you feeling ? marty : oh , save it . i heard you . [ scene_break ] [ door closes ] kelly : hello . who are you ? [ scene_break ] whitney : hey , mr. vega . cristian : look at that . they came out great . whitney : i 'll make you one if you 'll chaperone . cristian : sorry , whitney . whitney : you do n't understand . it 's gon na be so fun ... cristian : i 'm sure it will be . whitney : and school policy requires two more adult chaperones . please ? all the girls are dying to see you in a tux . cristian : i do n't know about that . whitney : look . you 're new here . you need brownie points , right ? chaperoning is , like , huge . the administration will love you forever . [ scene_break ] natalie : okay . what you just heard was out of context . brody and i -- marty : so put it in context . i 'm listening . if there 's a context that would make it okay for you to say that john would leave me if i were n't pregnant , i would love to hear it . natalie : all i meant -- marty : i mean , is that really what you think , that if i were n't pregnant , he would be with you ? [ scene_break ] kelly : can i help you with something ? stop . stop . back off ! john : hey ! hey , get off her . want to tell me what you 're doing , pal ? [ scene_break ] brody : natalie and i were commiserating . i did a little venting about jessica . she did a little venting about her situation . that 's all it was . natalie , i think we should go . marty : no , no , no . i think we should settle this because -- you know what ? -- i am sick of you promising to stay away from john and then i 'm finding you together every time i turn around . i tried to take the high road , but it 's obviously not working , so let me have it . tell me what you 're thinking . natalie : fine . fine . you want the truth ? i meant what i said . if it were n't for the baby , john would be with me . [ scene_break ] john : what 's your name , huh ? all right . hey , come on . you can tell me . it 's all right . kelly : maybe he knew my mother . john : is that it ? did you know kelly 's mom melinda cramer ? hey . mrs. stevens : what are you doing ? rodney , rodney , are you all right , sweetheart ? he 's harmless . let him go . [ scene_break ] langston : thanks for the tickets . starr : look . i know it 's been rough , but i really think that this prom is going to make you remember how perfect everything was last year when you and markko were madly in love . you went to the palace , and you made love for the first time . this is your anniversary . you need to celebrate . langston : so you 're not mad at me for jumping all over you for telling cole about ford ? starr : no . i get it , but , lang , you need to understand that i thought you were telling markko , so i could n't have cole going home not knowing the truth . langston : i know . i just -- i hope i did n't cause any problems for you and cole . i mean , you guys are the best . i mean , you 're like my heroes . it 's why i had to write about you . you 're like love superstars . starr : and if we could survive my dad , then we can survive a little argument about you and ford .

[ scene_break ] cole : go ahead . hit me . hit me like you did when you found me and your daughter in bed together , huh ? hannah : this is n't what it looks like . i spilled something on my shirt , and i went into the bathroom to wash it off . i came out here to ask him for something dry . there 's nothing going on here . we 're just friends . please stop . [ scene_break ] mr. g. : todd manning has n't tried to scuttle this project , not yet , but several other parents have weighed in , and the administration is n't happy . destiny : they 're not canceling the play , are they ? mr. g. : no , but they have concerns . matthew : oh , come on . there 's always concerns . remember last year when they wanted you to cancel `` west side story `` ? nate : you 're not serious . mr. g. : i 'm afraid so . several parents thought it was too edgy . dani : yeah , but that 's why it 's good . mr. g. : i agree , but some parents do n't . in fact , the kids playing todd and blair had to pull out because their parents objected . langston : wait , wait , wait . noah and beth ? mr. g. : yeah , are out , and the administration has questioned whether `` starr x 'd lovers `` is appropriate for high school . langston : well , i wrote it , and i 'm in high school . starr : and it 's a true story . it happened here . dani : so we can live it , but we ca n't do a play about it ? mr. g. : which was my argument , and so far , they 've agreed with me . still , they 're right about one thing . it 's tough material , which is why i wanted to meet today with just the leads . you have emotionally taxing scenes . i want you to dig into them today , see if you can handle it . langston : well , what about todd and blair ? mr. g. : well , i 'll read todd for now , and , starr , if you 'd read blair ... and if anyone is uncomfortable at any point , i want you to stop , and , you know , we 'll talk about whatever it is . deal ?

[ scene_break ] dani : prom is almost over . nate : we 've got time , and you owe me a dance . cole 's voice : okay . let 's go inside so we can say we went to the prom together . starr 's voice : but it 's over . cole : just one dance ? destiny : hey , mr. g. , are we supposed to be kissing and all that today ? mr. g. : um , it 's not necessary . we 're just reading through the script . we 'll add the physical actions later . so , how 'd it feel , you two ? nate : great . dani : yeah . it was fine . mr. g. : good , but it will get harder .

[ scene_break ] marty : see , now you 're reaching because john was with blair when he thought i had died . he did n't go back to you , and when he found me , we got back together , and we 've been solid for months . natalie : really ? then why are you so unhappy ? [ scene_break ] mrs. stevens : it 's all right . you 're okay . come on . everything is fine . john : rodney has some explaining to do , mrs. stevens . you okay ? kelly : yeah . you want to tell me what he was doing in here ? mrs. stevens : as part of rodney 's ongoing therapy , i 've asked him to take some responsibility here at the center . he tidies up my office , empties my wastepaper basket , brings in the mail . john : so rodney has got keys to your office . mrs. stevens : yes . i trust him completely . rodney has been with us nearly all of his adult life , have n't you , rodney ? john : so he could 've made the calls to kelly . is that it , rodney ? did you call kelly and tell her her mom was murdered ? mrs. stevens : i 'm afraid that 's impossible . rodney has n't spoken a single word in all the years he 's been here .

[ scene_break ] marty : i think anyone would be a little bent out of shape , but i understand why you clung to john after the accident . you 'd almost been killed . i get it . natalie : and the other kiss ? when we came back home to llanview , john came over to see me . there was no one scared , no one dying , yet we were wrapped in each other 's arms kissing again . why was that , marty ? you want to explain that one away ? [ scene_break ] mrs. stevens : i 'm very sorry about your loss , kelly , but i 'm afraid i 've done everything i can to help you . and since there 's no proof that your mother has died of anything but natural causes , i 'm afraid i 'm going to have to ask you to leave . your presence is disturbing our residents . [ pager beeps ] mrs. stevens : now if you 'll excuse me ... kelly : now what ? john : keep an eye out for me , will you ? hey , rodney . hey , look . i 'm sorry about what happened in there . i thought you were trying to hurt my friend , and i realize now that maybe you were trying to reach out to her . that 's some collection you got there . may i ? let 's see . carl yastrzemski . look at that . now , that 's -- that 's pretty impressive . a ' 67 yaz . that was his triple crown year , you know ? i remember my old man , he got me the ' 68 card because he could n't find the ' 67 . yeah , yaz . he was a guy did n't do much talking either . he did n't have to . let his actions speak for him , you know what i mean ? [ scene_break ] natalie : cat got your tongue ? brody : natalie ! natalie : well , i just assumed that john , the family man , told her . no ? no . let me fill you in . john came over to see me . marty : i think i ... i think i get the picture . natalie : not if you think that the only thing that 's there is grief . and then we kissed . marty : and then what ? natalie : we were n't gon na take it any further , not until he settled things with you . marty : so you discussed our relationship ? natalie : of course . but then you conveniently got pregnant , so john decided he had to stay with you . marty : and what did you decide , natalie ? natalie : to let him go , which is not easy . and i 'm sorry , but i still think about what might have happened had you not gotten pregnant . and i know that john thinks about it , too . marty : because of your connection ? natalie : exactly . marty : connect to this . john is not gon na change his mind . he is thrilled about our baby . natalie : oh , yeah ! no , no , john he 's definitely into the baby . no doubt about it . you ? not so much . brody : natalie ! marty : no , i get it . i get it . i get it . i understand . you need to believe that . but john 's with me now . he 's not gon na change his mind . natalie : no , you 're right . john 's never gon na leave you as long as you 're pregnant . marty : yeah , thanks . natalie : oh , my god . what did i just do ? why did i say that to her ? why did n't you stop me ? uhh ! [ scene_break ] jessica : well , so what ? it does n't matter if we did n't make love . cristian : i did n't say that , jess . jessica : well , marty certainly seems to think it 's important . cristian : marty talked to you about it ? jessica : well , she keeps on going on and on about how i 'm making my brain go back to a time when i was a virgin , like i even care , but ... that 's why prom night was so important . it was supposed to be the night that i lose my virginity with you . cristian : jessica ! look , i 'm sorry if i 'm upsetting you , but we did n't make love at prom and we 're not gon na -- jessica : but now we have a second chance . do n't you see ? we can rewrite history . [ scene_break ] dani : no , no , i 'm okay . [ sniffs ] dani : i mean , if starr can take it , seeing `` todd `` up on stage acting like a maniac , then i can , too . and who knows . maybe by acting in this play and really trying to understand how starr could forgive him after everything that he 's put her and cole through , maybe it 'll help me see what she sees in him . starr : i hope so . dani : me too . 'cause right now , i hate him , and it does n't feel good . [ scene_break ] todd : you 're such a slow learner , thornhart . i mean , even what 's - her - name over here gets it , do n't you ? starr knows that whatever i do for her , i do out of love . cole : she may have forgiven you , but she 'll never trust you . you think she 's forgotten that you pushed her down the stairs ? she almost lost her baby . and what you did to my mom ... twice . no . she 'll never get past that . and if you ever , ever go near my mom again , you 'll lose starr for good . todd : you know that if starr had to choose between you and me -- cole : she already has . she chose me . look around , manning . this is her home with me . you could n't stop her from moving in . you could n't stop dani . they ran here to get away from you .

[ langston screams ] langston 's voice : we do n't know where they are . we already told that to detective mcbain . todd 's voice : well , that 's detective mcbain . you 're dealing with me now . i know you helped starr run away , so ... markko 's voice : yeah , and if we did that does n't mean we know where they went . todd 's voice : i disagree . i think you do know . starr : langston ? i 'm so sorry that i put you and markko through all of that . langston : you did n't do anything . it was all your dad . [ scene_break ] todd : dani 's a separate issue , cole . cole : yeah , because you did n't get to brainwash her from birth like you did with starr . dani sees you for what you are , and she 's never gon na love you . todd : okay . but starr ... starr is mine and always will be mine . and i 'm gon na get her away from you if it 's the last thing i ever do . [ scene_break ] dani : i 'm not going anywhere with you , dad . i 'm staying with cole . mr. g. : get your hands off her , thornhart ! dani : why ca n't you just leave us alone ? mr. g. : 'cause you 're my child , and you 'll do as i say ! nate : let her go ! you 're hurting her ! mr. g. : you shut the hell up ! starr 's voice : leave him alone , dad ! cole 's voice : mr. manning , if you 'll just listen to us . starr 's voice : no ! aah ! blair 's voice : starr ! langston : hey . you okay ? starr : it just brings it all back . we could have lost hope . dani : i do n't know how they survived all of that . nate : what i want to know is why this maniac 's still walking around . langston : it 's a long story . nate : i mean , are n't you , like , scared , knowing that he 's still out there ? [ scene_break ] cole : face it . you lost . starr and i , we 're happy . we have a daughter , a home together , a life together . and nothing and no one will ever change that . todd : except me . and you know that . 'cause i 've stopped you before , and by god i 'll do it again . cole : get the hell out of my house ! hannah : cole , no ! no ! [ scene_break ] langston : maybe mr. g. was right . i should n't have written about you and cole . starr : no . he never said that . he was just worried that we could n't handle it . not that it is n't a great play or that we should n't do it . actually , i think it 's the reason we should . it would be good for us . langston : i hope so . starr : you know , do you mind if i take off ? all of this makes me really want to talk to cole , and we left things on a bad note . langston : yeah , because of me and ford . starr : does n't matter . what 's important is that we 're still together . [ scene_break ] cristian : we ca n't rewrite history , jess , even if we wanted to . and besides , we broke up after prom . jessica : but we would n't have if we 'd slept together . cristian : it 's not gon na happen . look , i have my life , and you have to find yours . and if you were smart , you 'd take another look at brody . take him to the prom . start a new chapter . jessica : are there any tickets left for the prom ? whitney : yep . how many do you want ? [ scene_break ] brody : i tried to stop you several times . natalie : i know . it 's not your fault . it 's not your fault . i was such a total bitch , i mean , and to a pregnant woman no less ! and i do n't know if that 's how john feels . i have no idea how he feels . i was just saying that to stick it to marty . brody : and you did . natalie : i know that you 're gon na say she backed me into a corner and that i was totally overreacting and that i 'm not a total beast for talking to her like that , but -- brody : actually -- natalie : you think i 'm a terrible person ? brody : no , of course not . i think you want someone you ca n't have and it 's driving you a little nuts . and believe me , i know what that 's like . [ scene_break ] kelly : john . john : rodney , my number 's on that card , okay , if you need to reach me . mrs. stevens : detective mcbain . john : yes . oh , well , i was just apologizing to the man . he deserved it . mrs. stevens : good , because i 'm certain he did n't make those calls . no one here did . kelly : mrs. stevens , please . mrs. stevens : i know how upsetting this is , losing your mother . melinda was a lovely woman and we were all very fond of her here . kelly : which is why someone has to know something . john : mrs. stevens , thank you very much for your time . you 've been very kind . mrs. stevens : i 'm sorry i could n't be of more help . kelly : that 's it ? you 're just gon na let her brush us off like that ? [ exhales ] [ scene_break ] marty : ahem . natalie 's voice : why were you so bent out of shape when you found us kissing on llantano mountain ? because deep down you know that i 'm the one he wants , that he 's only staying with you because it 's the right thing to do . [ laughing nervously ] marty : okay . natalie 's voice : if it were n't for that baby , john would be with me . [ banging keyboard ] natalie 's voice : oh , he 's into that baby . there 's no doubt about it . but you ? not so much . somehow we ended up with our arms around each other , kissing again ... again .

[ scene_break ] natalie : god , it 's not marty 's fault that she 's pregnant or that john 's sticking by her . maybe he loves her . he probably does . i do n't know . it 's just that john and i have ... we share something special . you know , we understand each other . brody : i know . natalie : and i 've lost him . brody : anything i can do to help ? natalie : no . i need to man up and apologize . brody : no . bad idea . too soon . you got ta let marty cool down . natalie : she 's gon na call john and tell him everything . brody : you ca n't stop her . natalie : whoa , guess that 's the price i pay for being a jerk . john 's gon na hate me . brody : not if he understands you the way you say he does . natalie : yeah , i guess . all right , i got ta go . brody : hey , you 're gon na leave marty alone . natalie : yeah . thanks for everything .

[ scene_break ] john : i think buddy over there knows something . and if that was him reaching out to you on the phone , he 's gon na do it again . [ scene_break ] hannah : it 's amazing that you guys are still together , you and starr . you must really love each other . cole : we do , which is why sometimes he really gets to me . hannah : hello ! he 's terrifying . cole : hmm . look , i 'm sorry . i 'm just kind of used to it . you okay ? hannah : i 'm fine . i just -- what was i thinking , coming out here with my shirt off . i ... this is all my fault . cole : no , no . that 's just vintage todd . all right ? that has nothing to do with you . hannah : i set him off . and now you and starr have to deal with it and ... you 've been so nice to me . cole : hey , you okay ? it 's okay . [ door opens ]Summarize.[/INST]starr and langston observe the freshmen playing them and their boyfriends . they both relive all that todd has done to all of them and how he terrorized starr and cole and all of their friends . meanwhile , the real todd walks in on cole and hannah right after she 's taken off her blouse when she 's spilled something on it . and he assumes that cole is cheating on starr . cole confidently tells todd that she is going to disown her father if he gives them any more grief . but starr reveals that maybe she is not entirely ok with cole 's and hannah 's friendship and the time they spend together . marty is similarly insecure about john 's commitment to her when natalie tells her that john is staying with marty only out of obligation since she is pregnant . meanwhile , john accompanies kelly to the hospital where her mother stayed and is determined to find out form a nurse and a patient what they might know about the mysterious calls kelly has gotten about her mother 's death . jessica has cristian on the brain and is still ignoring brody . brody seems to really relate to natalie 's situation with john since they both live with wanting somebody they ca n't have .</s>

he can do anything he wants anytime he wants , and nobody can stop him . kevin : except you . lucy : except me . we do n't even know . he could be out there right now , hunting rafe down , wanting to claim him . kevin : but you just said that caleb would kill rafe . lucy : yeah , he would . that would be his last resort . if rafe refuses to be turned , then he will . kevin : lucy , do n't start ... lucy : no . listen to me . alison was here . doc , the last thing alison did was come to this police station , and she was looking for me . she wanted help . she wanted an ally to try and hide rafe from caleb . kevin : even if you are right , that just proves that alison shared your delusion . that does n't make it true . lucy : no , no , no ! listen . caleb seduced alison . rafe is caleb 's son , and that is why he is going to try and get him and claim him . and that 's why -- oh , my god . that is why he allowed himself to be captured . anna : no ! mcbain is the focus of a detailed investigation . lucy : he 's not even using the alias anymore . do n't you see ? he does n't even care . he wants to take rafe , and he will kill anybody that gets in his way . molly : so , um , what 's gon na happen to john ? alexis : i do n't know . molly : well , do you think he 's guilty ? alexis : no . absolutely not . molly : so there 's no hard evidence ? alexis : oh , yeah . there 's a lot of evidence , most of which i hear is indisputable . molly : how are you gon na prove john did n't do it ? alexis : well , it would help if we could find that rafe kid . an eyewitness said she saw him on the pier when john allegedly killed this police officer . molly : i ca n't even imagine . that must have been really traumatic for him -- rafe , i mean . alexis : right . i do n't doubt that , and i 'm sure that he 's loathe to revisit it . however , as sole witness , he could shed some much - needed light . molly : maybe he 'll turn up . alexis : well , i hope so . all right . nice talking to you . i got to go . all right . when danny wakes up , it 's six ounces ... molly : ... of formula . alexis : good girl . oh , you 're the best . molly : it 's really no big deal . alexis : and i 'm sorry that i did n't trust you . it 's just that you girls give me so much reason to be paranoid . molly : it 's okay , mom . alexis : i love you . molly : i love you , too . rafe : look , i 'm sorry you had to lie to your mom , okay , but she 's wrong . john mcbain is a killer . sam : what did rafe say about the ring ? mcbain : it had this kind of crest on it ... along with a bat -- you know , the flying mammal kind . sam : the one often associated with vampires . mcbain : yeah , the one and the same , yeah . sam : well , when you mentioned this to the professor , he did n't laugh you out of the room ? mcbain : yeah , you would think , right ? but it turns out this , uh , this jay mosser -- he 's kind of an expert on the occult . sam : seriously ? mcbain : mm - hmm . he started showing me all these illustrations of rings that vampires wore through the ages , you know , in art and literature and all that crud . sam : wow . mcbain : yeah . he was able to work up a sketch based on rafe 's description . sam : did you get any answers ? dr. mosser : please excuse the mess . caleb : no problem . i love what you 've done with the place . dr. mosser : oh , i was meaning to ask , uh , is your inquiry into the ring part of that case i was reading about ? caleb : what case is that ? dr. mosser : oh , what was her name ? it 's some deranged woman -- attacked someone she believed was a vampire . caleb : i 'm afraid i 'm not at liberty to say . dr. mosser : well , she was clearly mistaken . there has n't been a vampire sighting here for years . caleb : do tell . dr. mosser : oh , here it is . the bat on the ring is common , but the crest is rare . caleb : hmm . dr. mosser : uh , yeah . it could be from a minor clan -- the julii . they were descendents of remus . caleb : the twin of romulus ? let 's see . if memory serves , their parents abandoned them , and they suckled from a wolf . dr. mosser : the julii were wiped out thousands of years ago during an inter- clanal war . but some vampire scholars believe a few survived , fleeing to a remote area of transylvanian alps in what is now romania . caleb : fascinating . and no one 's heard anything from them since ? dr. mosser : they 've been living in seclusion for generations . the last vague record we have of them -- from the last century , mind you ... caleb : that is pretty , pretty vague . dr. mosser : ... has them going by the prosaic name of morley . caleb : no kidding . dr. mosser : you think this is absurd , do n't you ? caleb : no , professor . not at all . dr. mosser : well , then , i think you 'll take me seriously when i tell you that the wearer of that ring embodies enormous power , and he wants revenge . todd : what have i done to deserve this ? heather : you want a list ? i 'm sure i do n't know the half of it . todd : i 'm pretty sure your list is longer than my list . heather : why do n't you get over it ? i 've already hired captain quint . todd : why do n't you get over it ? i hired him first . heather : well , we 'll have to share . todd : greedy bastard , letting us both hire him . where the hell is he , anyway ? heather : we 're not supposed to set sail for another hour . there 's something i need to take care of . todd : oh , yeah , what ? you 're gon na see your son at the hospital ? heather : as a matter of fact , i am gon na go see my son at the hospital . todd : oh , good . i think that 's a great idea . i hope it goes a lot better for you this time than it did the last time . [ whistling ] heather : todd ... todd : yes ? heather : ... that was in very poor taste , even for you . todd : true , nonetheless , right ? [ chuckles ] heather : okay , so i was planning on sneaking in and visiting steven lars , and now i -- i 've considered the consequences . todd : really ? that 's a first . heather : he 's probably still upset with me . todd : yeah , probably . you shot up his girlfriend , pushed her down a flight of stairs . two things not on my list , by the way . heather : yeah , well , if you 're such a paragon , then why did you have to hire a boat to smuggle yourself out of the country , just like i did ? todd : i 've been asking myself that . i 've been trying to figure out , how did i end up here in such a lonely , desperate situation ? and the only answer i can come up with is it 's all your fault . heather : mine ? todd : i was getting my life back , i was putting my relationship with my daughter back on track , i was about to launch a successful entertainment business . and then , tragically , one rainy night , i opened the door and saw you -- heather webber , lunatic baby switcher -- in a yellow slicker , and i was too traumatized to think straight . you took advantage of me . heather : i hope you did n't try to sell that story to the court . todd : why not ? it 's the truth . look , i 've done a lot of bonehead things in my life -- but nothing dumber than letting tea think that that baby was hers . and i only did that because you told me that sam did n't want that kid . heather : have you finished whining yet ? todd : i 'm not gon na finish whining till i get on that boat and get away from this town ! heather : well , if you want a speedy departure , you best not delay my errand . todd : why ? where are you going , anyway ? what 's so damn important ? heather : do n't you ever listen ? i 'm going to see my son . sabrina : i was in a rush because we were losing officer carlson . patrick : he was bleeding out in front of us . sabrina : dr. drake asked me to get phenylephrine and dopamine , and i checked the labels three times , just like nurse johnson always says . `` check thrice for me to stay nice . `` and i vividly remember doing that . patrick : i 'm sure she did . sabrina : then i found that vial on the floor . i realized i gave you heparin . i gave an anti - clotting med to a patient who was losing blood . steve : okay , let 's -- let 's not jump to conclusions . we 're still waiting for the autopsy results . they should be here any minute . patrick : we 'll know exactly what was in his system when he died . brad : is dr. webber up here ? i have the report he wanted . told me to put a rush on it . britt : from the death in the e.r . last night ? are you new ? i - i have n't seen you here before . brad : this is my first week . britt : wow ! i 'm dr. westbourne . you can call me britt . brad : oh . britt : welcome to g.h . brad : thanks . britt : do you have a name ? brad : sorry . i -- yeah . uh , brad -- brad cooper . britt : brad . mm . you do n't mind if i - i take a peek , do you , brad ? brad : uh , uh , is that procedure ? britt : [ chuckles ] do you want me to look it up ? brad : no , that 's not necessary . go for it . britt : thank you , brad . brad : no problem . britt : you did a very thorough job . oh , and -- and look . dr. webber 's right over there . [ chuckles ] patrick : the autopsy 's gon na clear you . sabrina : you do n't know that . patrick : i do n't think you would confuse heparin with phenylephrine . sabrina : i could have been so flustered . brad : dr. webber . steve : is this the carlson report ? brad : yeah . steve : great . thanks . i 'm sorry . sabrina : oh , my god . steve : she gave him the wrong medicine . sabrina : [ crying ] lucy : please release me and let me go so i can get out there and stop any more loss of life . i need to save people -- kevin : do you have any idea how serious this is ? ! lucy , this is not some misunderstanding or a petty infraction that you can tap - dance your way around ! you have managed to dismantle your entire life . lucy : do n't say that . kevin : you were the most brilliant and inspiring woman i have ever met . and now you 're reduced to ranting about the undead . well , i 'm sorry , lucy . this breaks my heart , but you 're a danger to yourself and to others , and you are not just going to walk out of here ! lucy : do you think i asked for this ? ! do you think it was my choice ? ! `` hey , lucy . wake up one day , and you get to be a slayer ! `` yay ! `` you get to be the only person in the room that sees evil standing right in front of everybody `` ! i did n't pick this , but i ca n't ignore it . i can not ignore the danger , and i have got to get out of here , and someone , by god , has got to help me ! molly : i know what you think you saw . rafe : not `` think . `` molly : [ sighs ] i just find it really hard to believe that john killed your mother or that other cop . rafe : he 's in jail , is n't he ? molly : yeah , and so were you , and you say you were innocent . maybe you should turn yourself in . rafe : what ? ! molly : well , guilty or not , john 's under investigation . maybe that means the police will believe you . rafe : over one of their own ? no . cops , molly , they stick together . molly : not when they 're accused of killing another cop . i doubt they 're on john 's side anymore . what ? rafe : [ scoffs ] it just hit me . i - i sound exactly like my mom -- paranoid and distrustful of everyone and everything . i used to hate that . maybe you 're right . i should just go down to the station . molly : nothing needs to be decided right this second . no one 's home , so why do n't you take a shower ? you can clear your head and figure out what to do next . rafe : that actually sounds really good . thanks . molly : i 'll go grab you a towel . mcbain : and mosser told me he needed the night to research it . sam : and your phone was off the whole time you were at the university ? why could n't anyone reach you ? mcbain : lousy cell reception , you know ? i actually tried calling the station a couple times . did n't think anything of it till i came out and had all those missed calls . sam : and by the time that happened , you already had all this evidence built up against you . mcbain : yeah , pretty much . sam : do you think the professor 's gon na be able to help you ? mcbain : i do n't know . mostly he went on and on about the -- about the existence of vampires . sam : do you believe him ? mcbain : no . sam : no ? mcbain : no , but right now , i 'll go with anything that helps clear this thing up . sam : what about anna ? mcbain : no . she 's -- she 's got her hands full right now with webber and manning on the loose . sam : and now that boy rafe is missing . mcbain : mm . after seeing someone he 's convinced is me commit murder for the second time . caleb : this has all been very interesting , professor . thank you . dr. mosser : well , do n't think that 's the end of the discussion . somewhere around here , i have a dissertation written long before the age of computers that comes close to proving that one of the last members of the clan is actually -- lucy : oh , alexis , thank god you 're here to help me , right ? alexis : well , i 'll -- i 'll certainly try , lucy , but i have to admit -- kevin : she 's in your hands now . lucy : what ? ! you 're just leaving ? kevin : you mean like you did ? [ sighs ] i have an appointment with a neurologist . he has to monitor me . lucy : what ? ! why ? kevin : well , you know , to make sure that the blow that your friend delivered to my head has n't caused a brain bleed . lucy : doc , i -- i 'm -- i 'm sorry . kevin : i know . thank you . alexis : good luck . how 's john ? alexis : yeah , well , you know , he 's not thrilled about being in lockup , obviously . alexis : yeah , well , i understand , but i - i do need to speak with him -- the sooner , the better . anna : i think you 've got your hands full with all this . alexis : lucy , lucy , lucy . what were you thinking ? lucy : well -- alexis : that was a rhetorical question . you are in serious trouble -- serious trouble . i 'll be lucky if i can even get you back into ferncliff . lucy : oh . well , that 's okay . um , you know , i - i do n't really want to go back to ferncliff . you 're right . alexis : i 'm right ? lucy : yes , you are . i do n't deserve to go back to ferncliff . i am just a common criminal . i deserve to be treated as one , so you can just march me right back downstairs to my cell . mcbain : i never should have dismissed lucy coe the way i did . sam : lucy coe ? she put a wooden stake through your chest . it does n't exactly inspire trust . mcbain : no , i - i should have known it was more than just a paranoid delusion . i at least should have considered the fact that there 's a guy out there named caleb . sam : who is a vampire that looks exactly like you ? mcbain : no . sam : come on . mcbain : he 's a killer that looks like me . sam : okay . maybe this professor mosser can help you out . i do n't know . but at the very least , i think he can give you an alibi . i can go talk to him , and then i can go to the police station and let them know that you were at the university -- nowhere near pier 52 -- and they 're gon na have to let you go . mcbain : thank you . sam : okay . i 'll be back . mcbain : you know where to find me . sam : not for long . between me and my mom , we 're gon na get you out of here soon . mcbain : let 's just hope it 's before this guy kills again . caleb : professor , you were saying ? dr. mosser : i 'm such a scatterbrain . [ chuckles ] that , uh , other research -- i must have left it at the copier . i 'll go and get it . caleb : i 'm afraid you wo n't be going anywhere . molly : oh , my god ! i am s -- i - i 'm sorry . rafe : i - i was just -- just getting dressed . molly : yeah , i can see that . i mean -- oh , my god . um , uh , did you figure out what to do ? rafe : uh , yeah . i 'm gon na take your advice . molly : yeah ? you 're gon na turn yourself in ? rafe : i 'm not sure there 's any alternative . i ca n't keep hiding here , even though it 's hands down the nicest house i 've ever slept in . and my mom -- she -- you know , she -- she deserves justice . her -- her murderer needs to pay for what he did . molly : you deserve justice , too . rafe : i 'm decent now . molly : um ... listen , if you ever want to talk about your mom or anything -- rafe : oh . how 's little danny boy doing ? molly : he crushed his bottle . rafe : sounds like someone was hungry . molly : yeah . are you ? hungry , i mean . rafe : how 'd you know ? think i can score another sandwich ? molly : i think i got something way better . rafe : impossible . molly : just wait until you try my peanut - butter toast . it 's famous -- with my mom and sisters , at least . rafe : well , sign me up . molly : okay . is it okay if i leave danny for a minute ? rafe : are you kidding ? hand him over . hi . hi . oh . aw . aw . my mom always said , no matter how rotten you feel or how -- how much the world may be against you , a baby 's smile will always make it better . [ sighs ] i miss her . i miss her so much . patrick : sabrina . sab -- come on . you got to give her a break here . officer carlson was almost dead by the time we got him the meds . she 's a student nurse . you know what this is gon na do to her career . steve : i 'm sorry . i got to write her up . you know how it goes . [ footsteps approach ] britt : hey . i - i guess the rumor must be true . sabrina killed your patient ? that 's horrible ... for everyone involved . horrible . steve : [ sighs ] olivia : hey . steve : oh . hey . olivia : sabrina 's having a bad day , huh ? steve : it really is a shame . she 's an excellent nurse . olivia : how excellent ? i 'm sorry . i could n't help myself . i 'm a jerk . steve : listen to me . i 'm gon na say this one more time , and you are going to listen . olivia : i 'm listening . steve : you , olivia falconeri , soon to be webber , are the only woman -- olivia : she 's here . your mother is here . rafe : even when she was terrified that caleb was gon na get us , you know , a baby could stop my mom in her tracks . she 'd do the -- do the whole baby - talkie thing , and then ... she 'd smile at the parents and ... say , `` god bless . `` [ sighs ] that was when she was at her best , you know ? of course you do n't know . hey , do me a favor . do n't tell aunt molly about this talk . thanks , kid . [ footsteps approach ] sabrina : i 'm sorry i ran off like that . patrick : i 'm sorry this is happening to you . but getting written up at the beginning parts of your career -- it 's kind of a rite of passage . sabrina : i was supposed to graduate soon . patrick : mm . sabrina : with a fatality on my record , my career could be over before it even starts . and i ca n't believe that 's what i 'm worried about right now . a man 's dead because of me . patrick : no , he died because somebody stabbed him fatally . sabrina : but if i had just done my job right , then he would still be here . patrick : you did everything you could do . you found him on the pier . he would have died there . you gave him a chance by bringing him to the e.r . , okay ? you did everything you could for him . sabrina : except give him the right medicine . patrick : i was the attending . he was bleeding out . no medication would have made any difference . sabrina : we do n't know that . we never will . olivia : steve , she 's right there . she 's right over there -- right out in the open . steve : that 's not heather . that 's dr. westbourne . my mother 's not here , okay ? olivia : okay . steve : okay ? olivia : okay , maybe she 's not here right now in the hospital right this minute , but she 's here in port charles . heather is here in port charles , and she 's disguised as a nurse . heather : good morning . rafe : um ... okay . who are you ? heather : i 'm here for the baby . todd : all right , manning . [ sighs ] think . life 's all about choices , right ? okay , as i see it , you 've got option `` a , `` option `` b , `` or option `` c. `` option `` a `` -- you hop on a boat with a peg - leg captain . you take off for waters unknown with heather webber playing the role of an animated tiger . or option `` b `` -- you go back to port charles , you stand trial , you do a stint in pentonville , and ... carly and starr never visit . or -- or option `` c. `` you get on this boat , and you leave heather behind and never see her again . well , what 's a pirate 's favorite letter of the alphabet ? [ as pirate ] r ? [ normal voice ] you 'd think . but it 's the `` c `` they love . alexis : yeah , hold her , hold her . anna : stop . alexis : you got to stop this . lucy : what ? this what ? alexis : this vampire stuff . there are n't any vampires . and even if there were , john is not one of them . anna : and you 're not going anywhere near him . caleb : [ sighs ] i regret that i had to do that . your knowledge was impressive , but you gave me no choice . [ knock on door ] sam : professor mosser ? hi , i 'm -- i 'm sorry to disturb you . do you have a minute ? [ knock on door ] sam : professor mosser ?
caleb stops heather on the pier . she thinks he is john mcbain . she wrests away from him and takes refuge under some crates , where she finds todd manning hiding . she tells him that mcbain is there . todd says that is impossible because john is in jail for killing a cop . todd and heather discover that they both secured passage on the same boat . heather tells him that he ca n't leave until she returns from visiting steven lars . todd considers his options and decides to leave without heather .
<s>[INST] sabrina : i just do n't understand . i checked the label three times . how did i give you the wrong medication ? officer carlson 's dead ... and i killed him . [ cell phone chimes ] olivia : hi . steve : hey . how you doing ? olivia : i 'll be a lot better once they find your mother . [ hurried footsteps approach ] heather : [ gasps ] molly : rafe . rafe , come on . wake up . rafe : [ gasps ] lucy : uh , thank you . thank you . okay , look , i am so sorry for what i - i did to you . holding you at gunpoint -- anna : knocking out my officer , taking his gun , holding me at gunpoint , yeah . lucy : okay , right . i - i - i will apologize to him and to you . i am sorry . i 'm just desperate -- anna : save it . you have a visitor . caleb : going so soon ? mcbain : taylor ! can you let me know when alexis davis is in the building ? [ footsteps approach ] sam : hey . officer taylor 's upstairs . mcbain : hi . sam : hi . and to answer your question , my mom 's gon na be here soon , so we do n't have much time . mcbain : for what ? sam : to get you out of here . patrick : even if you did make a mistake -- and i 'm not convinced you did -- officer carlson was bleeding out . he would have died anyway . sabrina : you said you thought you could save him . patrick : i always try and save everyone . officer carlson dying is not your fault , sabrina . sabrina : yes , it is ! patrick : look , i understand that you are new to this , but this is medicine . people die on your watch , and slowly you -- you learn to deal with it . sabrina : i just do n't know what to do . patrick : well , first things first . we better go talk to dr. webber . steve : the only update i have is the cops have n't found heather . olivia : well , you know what this means . i was right . the vision that i had about heather getting out of the shower -- i should have trusted that . i should have gone right to the cops . i should have told them that heather was out on the loose . now she could be god knows where . heather : let me go , detective . if you try to haul me in , you 're gon na have to kill me . caleb : ah ! if you insist . [ smooches ] molly : rafe , it 's me . it 's molly . rafe : molly . molly : yeah . who 'd you think it was . rafe : that mcbain guy coming after me . i have nightmares about it every time i close my eyes . molly : i 'm sorry . rafe : him stabbing my mom . and then the cop yesterday .

[ doorknob rattling ] alexis : molly ? lucy : oh , doc , are you all right ? are you okay ? kevin : do you care ? lucy : yes , i care . i - i - i suffered completely when you -- you took that blow . i think -- i think it hurt me more than it hurt you . kevin : i seriously doubt that , lucy . lucy : but you came back . doc , i ca n't tell you how much it meant to me that you came back and you wanted to help me and you swore that you were on my side . kevin : and look at the thanks i got . one of your co - escapees cracked me over the head . do you know i had to go to the hospital ? lucy : oh , my god . i 'm -- i 'm so sorry . i had no idea they were gon na do that to you . anna : he thinks that todd hit him . is that right ? kevin : a force like that -- no offense , ladies -- could only come from a man . lucy : well , not necessarily so . do n't count that fruit loop heather webber out . heather : [ grunts ] todd : what are you doing ? i was here first . heather : be quiet . he 's out there . todd : who 's out there ? heather : john mcbain . do n't make a sound . mcbain : should you even be down here ? do n't want to get you in any trouble . sam : let 's focus on you . my mom said that she was up most of the night working on the case . mcbain : i have to remember to thank her . sam : from the looks of it , it does n't look like you got too much sleep , either . mcbain : no . sam : is it true -- what i read in the sun ? is there really that much evidence against you ? mcbain : i would n't have believed it if i did n't see it with my own eyes . sam : so there 's actual footage of someone that looks like you , or -- mcbain : a guy that looks like me took the weapon that killed alison barrington right out of the evidence room . sam : was it shot from the back ? mcbain : no , no . you see his face . you see his face , and then you see him right over there , and he takes rafe out of his cell and leads him right down that corridor . sam : what about the nurse from g.h . ? mcbain : she identified me as the man she saw kneeling over bud carlson as he bled out . sam : with the same weapon that killed alison barrington ? mcbain : this guy -- he 's -- he 's a dead ringer for me -- you know , the way he dresses , the way he walks -- everything . he 's got it down . sam : yeah , but -- okay , but it 's not you . mcbain : no . no , it 's not me . this is funny . this is weird . i ca n't tell you how many times i 've been on that side of the bars , listening to some perp go on and on about , `` hey , man , i 've been framed . it 's not me . i 'm being set up . `` i guess now it 's my turn . sam : no , it 's not . it 's just that that 's the theory . but you do have alison , who thought it was you , and -- and lucy , as well , thinking you are this vampire -- caleb morley . it does n't make any sense . mcbain : listen to me . you -- you forget the whole supernatural part of it , all right ? this guy that looks like me -- he 's real . he 's real , and he was here in the pcpd impersonating me . that 's the only way to explain this . sam : you know this looks really bad for you . they say the police commissioner tried to call you all night and you did n't pick up your phone . john , where were you ? sabrina : why do i have to talk to dr. webber ? patrick : because he 's the head of e.r . when something like this happens -- a potential mistake -- there 's an inquiry . sabrina : oh , my god . oh , my god ! this is it . i 'm fired . patrick : no , no , sabrina . it 's nothing like that . this is just protocol , all right ? so come on . i 'll go with you . hey . you 're gon na be okay . come on . hey , steve 's a good guy . he 's not gon na judge you . come on . steve : sweetie , i 'm going to keep you safe this time . i promise . olivia : it 's not you that i do n't trust . steve : i know . you have every right to be on guard . olivia : i 'm not just talking about heather , either . i - i 'm sorry to say this . i know that this sounds crazy . we 're getting married , for pete 's sake . i know that you love me . steve : okay . olivia : okay . but if i was right with the hallucination about heather , what about the one about the nurse ? steve : sabrina ? olivia : it was a very detailed hallucination . you were enjoying that shower just as much as she was . steve : liv , come on . olivia : i know . i know . but i 'm just saying , all of my visions have come true so far , or at least they 've had some kind of meaning behind them . why would this one be any different , huh ? steve : [ sighs ] can we talk about this later ? olivia : of course . i 'll just go back to worrying about the other woman in your life . heather : i do n't know what kind of a game he 's playing , but john mcbain was right there . todd : you need to have your eyes checked . he 's in a jail cell . heather : what for ? todd : he killed a cop . heather : well , he must have escaped . he was holding me close enough to kiss . todd : ew . heather : real close -- like this -- tight ! todd : okay . not that this is n't every man 's fantasy , but you need to let me go . i 'm waiting for someone . heather : who ? todd : okay , do you remember the last time we were together and you asked me where i was going ? and i said , `` like i 'd ever tell you , `` or something like that . do you remember that ? heather : yes . todd : well , it 's happening again . heather : i do n't understand this . if it were n't for me , you 'd be rotting in ferncliff . why wo n't you tell me what your plans are ? todd : if i tell you , will you let go of me ? heather : sure . todd : i 've chartered a boat . he 's gon na take me anywhere i want , no questions asked . heather : `` just ask for quint . `` todd : yeah . wait . how did you know that ? heather : because i read the same ad in the advocate . todd : oh , no . tough noogies . i hired him . heather : no , todd . i hired him . todd : oy vey . we 're gon na need a bigger boat . kevin : heather ? anna : yeah . lucy could actually be right . lucy : ah ! finally ! anna : heather 's capable of anything , especially assault . lucy : yes , and i was completely beyond upset with old heather . kevin : and you still took off . you just left me lying there . for all you knew , i was dead . lucy : i would n't do that . i did check to see if you were breathing , and you were okay . doc , please . please try to understand . i knew that todd and heather would just ditch me , whether i was gon na go with them or not , so i could n't stay there . i had to escape . kevin : because of caleb ? lucy : yeah , because of caleb . doc , you 're my big , strong guy . i know you 're perfectly capable of taking yourself , but rafe is not . he 's just a boy , and he was all alone . he had nobody protecting him . [ gasps ] oh , my god , anna . he has nobody protecting him . rafe is just out there , with caleb on the loose . kevin : oh , here we go . lucy : and caleb is impersonating an officer of the law ! anna : you do n't have to worry about john mcbain . lucy : `` i do n't have to worry . `` yes , i do ! we all have to worry ! he could be out there right now murdering rafe ! anna : no , he 's not ! john mcbain has been apprehended . he 's currently in a cell . he is no threat to rafe . alexis : molly , open the door right now ! come on . molly : sorry . i was just sleeping . [ sighs ] good morning . alexis : good morning . molly : you know i do n't have school today , right ? alexis : uh - huh . yep , i know . molly : i was hoping to sleep in . alexis : is t.j . in here ? molly : what ? ! no ! alexis : well , i remember what happened last time you locked the door . [ drawer opens , closes ] molly : mom , look at me . i swear to you , t.j. is not in my room , okay ? alexis : okay . why 'd you lock the door ? molly : i do n't know . i must have accidentally pressed it . so , please , what is this big emergency that dragged me out of bed ? alexis : sam dropped danny off this morning . can you watch him ? molly : yeah , of course . alexis : i would have asked kristina , but kristina 's doing community service . molly : mom , it 's okay . i 'm happy to do it . i love babysitting danny . alexis : thank you . molly : you just go ahead . do what you need to do . alexis : i 'd rather just sit here and talk to you . i 'm not very anxious to get to work , anyway . i got two people in lockup . you know , lucy cuckoo held the commissioner at gunpoint . and then this john mcbain -- he killed a police officer . and that was after he broke this rafe kovich out of jail -- you know , that kid that accused of killing of his mother . molly : oh , yeah . right . alexis : he 's still on the loose . mcbain : i was at the university . sam : what were you doing there ? mcbain : meeting with a professor . sam : okay . why -- why would -- why would you go there and meet with a professor ? mcbain : i had asked rafe to give me some more details about the guy he saw murder his mom . sam : the guy he says is you . mcbain : i wanted to know if there was anything that really stood out about this guy . and it took him a while , but then he realized the guy 's wearing a ring . sam : okay . well , a wedding ring ? mcbain : no . it was more distinct than that . he was able to describe it . sam : so you went to the university to find out more about it ? mcbain : exactly , and i had to wait around a little while 'cause the guy was teaching a class , and i had to wait for him to finish . sam : right . did you talk to him ? mcbain : yeah , for quite a while . sam : what 's his name ? mcbain : jay mosser . dr. mosser : excellent timing . i was just about to call you . come in , detective . caleb : please , call me john . kevin : this is good news . everyone 's safe . lucy : everyone is not safe . doc , please , do you really believe that bars and a cell can hold caleb ? he can do anything he wants anytime he wants , and nobody can stop him . kevin : except you . lucy : except me . we do n't even know . he could be out there right now , hunting rafe down , wanting to claim him . kevin : but you just said that caleb would kill rafe . lucy : yeah , he would . that would be his last resort . if rafe refuses to be turned , then he will . kevin : lucy , do n't start ... lucy : no . listen to me . alison was here . doc , the last thing alison did was come to this police station , and she was looking for me . she wanted help . she wanted an ally to try and hide rafe from caleb . kevin : even if you are right , that just proves that alison shared your delusion . that does n't make it true . lucy : no , no , no ! listen . caleb seduced alison . rafe is caleb 's son , and that is why he is going to try and get him and claim him . and that 's why -- oh , my god . that is why he allowed himself to be captured . anna : no ! mcbain is the focus of a detailed investigation . lucy : he 's not even using the alias anymore . do n't you see ? he does n't even care . he wants to take rafe , and he will kill anybody that gets in his way . molly : so , um , what 's gon na happen to john ? alexis : i do n't know . molly : well , do you think he 's guilty ? alexis : no . absolutely not . molly : so there 's no hard evidence ? alexis : oh , yeah . there 's a lot of evidence , most of which i hear is indisputable . molly : how are you gon na prove john did n't do it ? alexis : well , it would help if we could find that rafe kid . an eyewitness said she saw him on the pier when john allegedly killed this police officer . molly : i ca n't even imagine . that must have been really traumatic for him -- rafe , i mean . alexis : right . i do n't doubt that , and i 'm sure that he 's loathe to revisit it . however , as sole witness , he could shed some much - needed light . molly : maybe he 'll turn up . alexis : well , i hope so . all right . nice talking to you . i got to go . all right . when danny wakes up , it 's six ounces ... molly : ... of formula . alexis : good girl . oh , you 're the best . molly : it 's really no big deal . alexis : and i 'm sorry that i did n't trust you . it 's just that you girls give me so much reason to be paranoid . molly : it 's okay , mom . alexis : i love you . molly : i love you , too . rafe : look , i 'm sorry you had to lie to your mom , okay , but she 's wrong . john mcbain is a killer . sam : what did rafe say about the ring ? mcbain : it had this kind of crest on it ... along with a bat -- you know , the flying mammal kind . sam : the one often associated with vampires . mcbain : yeah , the one and the same , yeah . sam : well , when you mentioned this to the professor , he did n't laugh you out of the room ? mcbain : yeah , you would think , right ? but it turns out this , uh , this jay mosser -- he 's kind of an expert on the occult . sam : seriously ? mcbain : mm - hmm . he started showing me all these illustrations of rings that vampires wore through the ages , you know , in art and literature and all that crud . sam : wow . mcbain : yeah . he was able to work up a sketch based on rafe 's description . sam : did you get any answers ? dr. mosser : please excuse the mess . caleb : no problem . i love what you 've done with the place . dr. mosser : oh , i was meaning to ask , uh , is your inquiry into the ring part of that case i was reading about ? caleb : what case is that ? dr. mosser : oh , what was her name ? it 's some deranged woman -- attacked someone she believed was a vampire . caleb : i 'm afraid i 'm not at liberty to say . dr. mosser : well , she was clearly mistaken . there has n't been a vampire sighting here for years . caleb : do tell . dr. mosser : oh , here it is . the bat on the ring is common , but the crest is rare . caleb : hmm . dr. mosser : uh , yeah . it could be from a minor clan -- the julii . they were descendents of remus . caleb : the twin of romulus ? let 's see . if memory serves , their parents abandoned them , and they suckled from a wolf . dr. mosser : the julii were wiped out thousands of years ago during an inter- clanal war . but some vampire scholars believe a few survived , fleeing to a remote area of transylvanian alps in what is now romania . caleb : fascinating . and no one 's heard anything from them since ? dr. mosser : they 've been living in seclusion for generations . the last vague record we have of them -- from the last century , mind you ... caleb : that is pretty , pretty vague . dr. mosser : ... has them going by the prosaic name of morley . caleb : no kidding . dr. mosser : you think this is absurd , do n't you ? caleb : no , professor . not at all . dr. mosser : well , then , i think you 'll take me seriously when i tell you that the wearer of that ring embodies enormous power , and he wants revenge . todd : what have i done to deserve this ? heather : you want a list ? i 'm sure i do n't know the half of it . todd : i 'm pretty sure your list is longer than my list . heather : why do n't you get over it ? i 've already hired captain quint . todd : why do n't you get over it ? i hired him first . heather : well , we 'll have to share . todd : greedy bastard , letting us both hire him . where the hell is he , anyway ? heather : we 're not supposed to set sail for another hour . there 's something i need to take care of . todd : oh , yeah , what ? you 're gon na see your son at the hospital ? heather : as a matter of fact , i am gon na go see my son at the hospital . todd : oh , good . i think that 's a great idea . i hope it goes a lot better for you this time than it did the last time . [ whistling ] heather : todd ... todd : yes ? heather : ... that was in very poor taste , even for you . todd : true , nonetheless , right ? [ chuckles ] heather : okay , so i was planning on sneaking in and visiting steven lars , and now i -- i 've considered the consequences . todd : really ? that 's a first . heather : he 's probably still upset with me . todd : yeah , probably . you shot up his girlfriend , pushed her down a flight of stairs . two things not on my list , by the way . heather : yeah , well , if you 're such a paragon , then why did you have to hire a boat to smuggle yourself out of the country , just like i did ? todd : i 've been asking myself that . i 've been trying to figure out , how did i end up here in such a lonely , desperate situation ? and the only answer i can come up with is it 's all your fault . heather : mine ? todd : i was getting my life back , i was putting my relationship with my daughter back on track , i was about to launch a successful entertainment business . and then , tragically , one rainy night , i opened the door and saw you -- heather webber , lunatic baby switcher -- in a yellow slicker , and i was too traumatized to think straight . you took advantage of me . heather : i hope you did n't try to sell that story to the court . todd : why not ? it 's the truth . look , i 've done a lot of bonehead things in my life -- but nothing dumber than letting tea think that that baby was hers . and i only did that because you told me that sam did n't want that kid . heather : have you finished whining yet ? todd : i 'm not gon na finish whining till i get on that boat and get away from this town ! heather : well , if you want a speedy departure , you best not delay my errand . todd : why ? where are you going , anyway ? what 's so damn important ? heather : do n't you ever listen ? i 'm going to see my son . sabrina : i was in a rush because we were losing officer carlson . patrick : he was bleeding out in front of us . sabrina : dr. drake asked me to get phenylephrine and dopamine , and i checked the labels three times , just like nurse johnson always says . `` check thrice for me to stay nice . `` and i vividly remember doing that . patrick : i 'm sure she did . sabrina : then i found that vial on the floor . i realized i gave you heparin . i gave an anti - clotting med to a patient who was losing blood . steve : okay , let 's -- let 's not jump to conclusions . we 're still waiting for the autopsy results . they should be here any minute . patrick : we 'll know exactly what was in his system when he died . brad : is dr. webber up here ? i have the report he wanted . told me to put a rush on it . britt : from the death in the e.r . last night ? are you new ? i - i have n't seen you here before . brad : this is my first week . britt : wow ! i 'm dr. westbourne . you can call me britt . brad : oh . britt : welcome to g.h . brad : thanks . britt : do you have a name ? brad : sorry . i -- yeah . uh , brad -- brad cooper . britt : brad . mm . you do n't mind if i - i take a peek , do you , brad ? brad : uh , uh , is that procedure ? britt : [ chuckles ] do you want me to look it up ? brad : no , that 's not necessary . go for it . britt : thank you , brad . brad : no problem . britt : you did a very thorough job . oh , and -- and look . dr. webber 's right over there . [ chuckles ] patrick : the autopsy 's gon na clear you . sabrina : you do n't know that . patrick : i do n't think you would confuse heparin with phenylephrine . sabrina : i could have been so flustered . brad : dr. webber . steve : is this the carlson report ? brad : yeah . steve : great . thanks . i 'm sorry . sabrina : oh , my god . steve : she gave him the wrong medicine . sabrina : [ crying ] lucy : please release me and let me go so i can get out there and stop any more loss of life . i need to save people -- kevin : do you have any idea how serious this is ? ! lucy , this is not some misunderstanding or a petty infraction that you can tap - dance your way around ! you have managed to dismantle your entire life . lucy : do n't say that . kevin : you were the most brilliant and inspiring woman i have ever met . and now you 're reduced to ranting about the undead . well , i 'm sorry , lucy . this breaks my heart , but you 're a danger to yourself and to others , and you are not just going to walk out of here ! lucy : do you think i asked for this ? ! do you think it was my choice ? ! `` hey , lucy . wake up one day , and you get to be a slayer ! `` yay ! `` you get to be the only person in the room that sees evil standing right in front of everybody `` ! i did n't pick this , but i ca n't ignore it . i can not ignore the danger , and i have got to get out of here , and someone , by god , has got to help me ! molly : i know what you think you saw . rafe : not `` think . `` molly : [ sighs ] i just find it really hard to believe that john killed your mother or that other cop . rafe : he 's in jail , is n't he ? molly : yeah , and so were you , and you say you were innocent . maybe you should turn yourself in . rafe : what ? ! molly : well , guilty or not , john 's under investigation . maybe that means the police will believe you . rafe : over one of their own ? no . cops , molly , they stick together . molly : not when they 're accused of killing another cop . i doubt they 're on john 's side anymore . what ? rafe : [ scoffs ] it just hit me . i - i sound exactly like my mom -- paranoid and distrustful of everyone and everything . i used to hate that . maybe you 're right . i should just go down to the station . molly : nothing needs to be decided right this second . no one 's home , so why do n't you take a shower ? you can clear your head and figure out what to do next . rafe : that actually sounds really good . thanks . molly : i 'll go grab you a towel . mcbain : and mosser told me he needed the night to research it . sam : and your phone was off the whole time you were at the university ? why could n't anyone reach you ? mcbain : lousy cell reception , you know ? i actually tried calling the station a couple times . did n't think anything of it till i came out and had all those missed calls . sam : and by the time that happened , you already had all this evidence built up against you . mcbain : yeah , pretty much . sam : do you think the professor 's gon na be able to help you ? mcbain : i do n't know . mostly he went on and on about the -- about the existence of vampires . sam : do you believe him ? mcbain : no . sam : no ? mcbain : no , but right now , i 'll go with anything that helps clear this thing up . sam : what about anna ? mcbain : no . she 's -- she 's got her hands full right now with webber and manning on the loose . sam : and now that boy rafe is missing . mcbain : mm . after seeing someone he 's convinced is me commit murder for the second time . caleb : this has all been very interesting , professor . thank you . dr. mosser : well , do n't think that 's the end of the discussion . somewhere around here , i have a dissertation written long before the age of computers that comes close to proving that one of the last members of the clan is actually -- lucy : oh , alexis , thank god you 're here to help me , right ? alexis : well , i 'll -- i 'll certainly try , lucy , but i have to admit -- kevin : she 's in your hands now . lucy : what ? ! you 're just leaving ? kevin : you mean like you did ?

[ scene_break ] andré : yes . i answered your phone when curtis called . jordan : you do n't need to answer my phone . i have voicemail . curtis told me that you told him to leave me alone . did you ? andré : yes . jordan : [ scoffs ] here i am convinced that he 's just making this whole thing up to get under my skin , but -- andré : you see ? and that 's exactly why i answered your phone . i know that curtis bothers you . he had already riled you up that day , and there he was calling again . so , yes , i answered your phone , and i told him to back off . i thought i was doing you a favor . jordan : are you out of your damn mind ? [ scene_break ] curtis : i know i messed up . i know it . but we had a good thing going before then . valerie : before what ? before you violated my trust and jeopardized my career ? and for what ? so you could get a bonus from julian jerome ? curtis : if it makes you feel any better , i do n't work for the guy anymore . valerie : did you quit because of me ? curtis : not exactly . okay , he got all the information he needed , so he dropped me , but we 're not -- i 'm not here to talk about julian jerome , okay ? i want to make this right . it 's thanksgiving . there 's football on every tv station . sports bars are open . i was thinking maybe we could go out just as friends . valerie : we 're not friends anymore .

'cause it turns out that he did call and you answered and did n't bother to tell me , right ? andré : because the man riles you up . honestly , jordan , i thought i was saving you the aggravation . if you ca n't see that , then i guess curtis wins . jordan : curtis wins ? okay . fine . curtis wins .

[ scene_break ] andré : maybe i overstepped answering your phone . jordan : maybe ? andré : but you have to know that i was coming from a good place . jordan : the least you could have done was told me that he called . andré : we went to dinner . we were having a great time , if you remember . the last thing i wanted to do was put any more energy into that clown . if he had told me he was calling about a murder , of course i would have told you . jordan : for the record , i do n't need someone who does n't think that i ca n't handle my own life making my decisions for me , okay ? andré : i never said that . jordan : but now you 're standing out here in the freezing cold feeding me a line of crap . [ scene_break ] curtis : so clearly , whoever was driving that van knew exactly where to park it to block a security camera . sam : yeah , we looked into the deliveries for both the mini - mart and the bar , and their delivery service is between 6 : 00 and 7 : 00 a.m . jason : and i talked to the manager of the floating rib . there were no deliveries that night . curtis : did anybody look into deliveries from a company called bev - more ? sam : well , i was gon na do that , but i assumed they were closed 'cause it 's thanksgiving . curtis : okay , look . i realize it 's still thanksgiving and you guys are with your beautiful son , but is there any way y ' all can look into this now ? the thing is my nephew tj -- he 's taking this real hard , and he still blames himself for morgan getting into that car that night . if there 's any way we could turn up the real killer , this would sure help out a lot . jason : [ breathing heavily ] [ scene_break ] alexis : kristina ? kristina , are you home ?

[ scene_break ] curtis : there 's this guy oscar jessup . he 's the one who called , uh , julian 's bodyguard the night of the explosion . when i asked julian if he knew the guy , he denied it . and then he promptly fired me . jason : yeah , that 's probably because poor mr. jessup has been dead for 26 years . [ scene_break ] josslyn : what did sonny say ? it better not be about how today 's thanksgiving , and we should all be grateful , not when it 's his fault that morgan 's dead . carly : you can blame sonny for a lot of things , but he did not plant the bomb that killed morgan . josslyn : michael told me . but of course , michael wants to believe that sonny 's innocent . i mean , i was n't gon na pick a fight with him . but i do n't buy it . carly : okay . i ca n't tell you what to believe , but jason 's investigating , and he 's going to prove that sonny 's innocent . josslyn : innocent ? carly : innocent of this one thing . josslyn : so what does that mean ? do you forgive sonny now ? are you gon na call him back ?

nelle gets sonny all riled up with the suggestion that carly & jax are sleeping together . she spikes his drink then helps him to his bedroom , where she helps remove his clothes . while an unconscious sonny lies under the covers , nelle removes her own clothing and gets into the bed next to him . jax gets word that his mom is very sick , so he must return to australia immediately . josslyn is very unhappy at losing her dad and even more so when carly begins to soften about sonny again . alexis ' drinking spirals out of control when she accidentally runs over julian then flees the scene . as soon as she 's home , jax stops by and advises her to get into rehab immediately , but she wants to put it off until tomorrow . jax calls the hospital and assures alexis that julian will recover .
