[ scene_break ] mimi : you 're wasting your time , your breath . it 's over . i lost shawn . i never really had him . bonnie : well , now you 're just talking crazy . mimi : mother , i heard him tell his dad last night that he lost the love of his life . that was n't me . that was belle . the love of his life , for god 's sake . how can i keep being his wife after hearing that ? bonnie : because you love him , and you exchanged vows . mimi : i gave him the rings back last night and asked for a divorce . bonnie : well , then you just unask him because shawn does n't want this divorce any more than you do . mimi : i 'm just getting what i deserve . i know shawn is claire 's father , and i have n't told him . he deserves better than me . and he loves belle . bonnie : he loves you . he married you . if he had wanted to marry belle , nothing would have stopped him . the brady men are a bunch of very determined guys . listen to me . the only way that shawn is gon na choose belle over you is if you hand him over on a platter . [ scene_break ] belle : mimi ? hey , it 's belle . can i come in ? bonnie : so what 's it gon na be , big girl ? do you want shawn , or are you gon na let belle take him away from you ? belle : hey . so i brought you some water . um , unless you want me to come back another time . bonnie : no , no . you 're mimi 's best friend . she could use you on her side .. belle : what 's the suitcase for ? bonnie : oh , this girl , she 's getting around to putting her winter clothes away . can you believe it ? now that you 're gon na be a mother , you 're gon na have to change some of your messy ways , miss mimi . now , why do n't we give mimi and shawn some time alone so they can work out their little lover 's spat . belle : well , actually , i wanted to talk to mimi alone for a second . bonnie : there 'll be plenty of time for talk later when my baby 's smiling again . right now mimi needs some sleep . she was up most of the night . she 's gon na have to take better care of herself if she 's gon na be a mother soon . belle : meems . okay , well , you know where i 'll be if you need me . [ scene_break ] shawn d. : i think it 's about time you and i had this talk because i know over the past couple months you 've wanted to get into with me quite a few times . philip : i heard what you said to your dad . shawn d. : that belle was the love of my life . guess what ? she was . we were together for a very long time . i can not take that back . and you know what ? for a long time , we thought we were gon na get married . philip : and then i came along and stole her away from you , and now you 're plotting to get her back . shawn d. : you 're delusional . she is my wife -- mimi . she is my life and my future . just the thought of her leaving me -- i can not stand it . i know you feel the same exact way if belle where to leave you . philip : what does that have to do with what you said about her ? shawn d. : belle is my past , a very important part of my past , and now she 's your wife . i understand that , and i respect that . i would never try and split up your family . you know how much i love claire . she 's my goddaughter , and i know how dependent her happiness is on her mother and father staying together , right ? philip : i know . i do know , and i just hope i jumped to the wrong conclusion , man . shawn d. : you did . come on , belle wants to have another child with you . does n't that mean she wants to stay with you , right ? philip : yeah . yeah . [ scene_break ] bonnie : just leave them alone . let them work it out . and i think if she just gets -- shawn d. : so how is she doing ? does she want to see me ? bonnie : well , i would n't go in there just yet . she needs to rest . she 's kind of tired . shawn d. : okay . you know , i 'm just worried about her . if you heard some of the stuff she said last night , something about she felt like a fraud . what does that mean ? bonnie : do n't tell mimi i told you this , but she 's a little embarrassed about her behavior . you know how pregnant women can get very moody . they overreact . they fly off the handle about absolutely nothing . well , mimi has been pumped so full of hormones trying to create one viable egg to have your baby . shawn d. : oh . i did n't even realize that , that was what this was about . bonnie : well , honey , you 're a man , which means you 're in the dark about most things . shawn d. : well , we 'll agree to disagree . bonnie : yeah , right . anyway , the injections have made mimi even more emotional , as if she were n't a basket case enough with the miscarriage , that crazy thing with the surrogate , the whole in vitro situation making her nuts . shawn d. : well , i have to apologize to her because i 've been so insensitive . mimi : no , shawn . i 'm the one that 's sorry . bonnie : mimi , honey , baby . you were gon na get some rest , remember ? now , come on . mimi : i 'm tired of lying , and i 'm not going to do it anymore . [ scene_break ] sami : well , lucas , surprisingly , yes , i can forgive you . i think we 've both thought the worst about each other a million times over , and we 've put each other through hell over the years . and ... you know what ? i think we 've both changed . and it 's not exactly like i had a reputation for being honest , so i do n't blame you for thinking the worst of me . lucas : yeah , neither did i for a long time . but , like you said , i guess we both changed . sami : finally , huh ? lucas : yeah . will : [ coughing ] mom ! sami : oh , my god ! [ smoke alarm beeping ] will : the casserole ! sami : oh , no , my casserole ! lucas : i 'll get the alarm . austin : ugh . sami : no , wait , i got it . i can save it . it 's not that -- oh , my god . it 's ruined ! turn it off , lucas ! lucas : all right . all right . [ all coughing ] sami : here , here . oh , no , look at that . oh , it 's ruined . i ca n't believe i did this . i just wanted to impress you all , and i wanted to impress you . will : do n't worry , mom . we already called great - grandma caroline to hold us a seat at the pub . ready , guys ? austin : yeah . sami : what do you mean ? you all knew that i was gon na ruin this ? austin : excuse me . i 'm sorry . everybody knows you ca n't cook . lucas : that 's true . but the juice -- the juice was good . will : yeah , every single drop of it . austin : it was great . now , why do n't you get dressed , and then we 'll wait for you ? sami : no , no . i have to get ready and -- just go . get out of here . go eat your breakfast , and i 'll beat the pub as soon as i can . austin : you sure ? maybe we can eat that . sami : no , stop it , austin . get out ! lucas : save me some juice . austin : [ laughing ] sami : you know what ? thanks . [ scene_break ] lexie : roman , i -- i 'd be forever grateful if you could convince abe to give our marriage another chance , but i 'm also very worried about him . he wo n't talk to me . he should talk to someone . it 's not healthy to keep your feelings locked up inside like that . roman : all right . all right , lexie . you know what ? i will give abe a call . lexie : thank you . [ scene_break ] kate : if you can tear yourself away , your daughter 's ready to leave . roman : okay . lexie , we 'll talk more later . lexie : thank you . roman : you take care of yourself . [ scene_break ] kate : you 're welcome . men -- so much more trouble than they 're worth . lexie : sometimes . kate : lexie , i 'm worried about you . i think whatever it is that sami did , it 's a lot worse than she admitted last night . and , for some reason , you did n't want to just give it to her right between the eyes . lexie : oh , goodness . would you excuse me ? i have an eyelash in my eye . excuse me . [ scene_break ] kate : where have i heard that before ? [ cell phone ringing ] sami . hello , you have reached sr . alexandra carver . please leave a message at any time . sami : okay , lexie . last night was your perfect chance to tell everyone the truth . carrie and lucas would n't be getting married if you told everyone the real reason i was blackmailing you . i want to know why you did n't say anything . what are you up to ? just call me , okay ? kate : i knew it . i knew it ! you might be fooling austin , but i 'm on to you , sami . i am always onto you . now i just have to figure out what it is you have on lexie , why she 's protecting you .

( sighs ) nick : that 's true . victoria : okay , so she 's not in it for love or for money . then maybe it 's because adam plays dirtier than she does , and he wants to stick it to her family . nick : by helping her get johnny back . victoria : we ca n't rule it out . nick : ( sighs ) all right , look ... there could be any number of reasons why those two decided to make it legal , and none of which have anything to do with johnny . victoria : ( sighs ) nick : so , vick , do n't make yourself sick worrying about something that may never happen . victoria : i know , okay ? i know . and i 'm trying not to let my mind go there . but after losing custody of reed to j.t . and what happened with lucy ... i 'm sorry , okay ? i just -- i ...

you set out to ruin neil 's life . you did it . why do you keep asking questions about him ? why do you even care ? lauren : i hope you 're ready for a little romance . ohh ! cane : yeah . i think your husband may have a little problem with that . lauren : [ laughing ] yeah . cane , i 'm so sorry . um , michael 's out at a meeting , and i thought i would surprise him . cane : okay . well , it looks like i 'm interrupting , so , uh -- lauren : oh , no , no . he 'll be -- he 'll be back . cane : i just wanted to discuss some business with him . lauren : all right . he 'll be back really soon . i promise . cane : you sure ?

and nothing is -- nothing 's gon na change it , you know ? nothing can change that . michael : oh , wow . a party ! lauren : [ sniffles ] michael : or possibly the saddest party ever ? what 's going on ? devon : answer me ! why do you even bother with us ? is it to gloat about screwing us over , or is there another reason that you 're so invested ? lily : no . the only thing hilary is invested in is her bank account , because if dad has legal problems , that affects divorce and , more importantly , her settlement . devon : well , that makes a lot of sense . so , you 're after his money ? hilary : well , what if i am ? at least we 'd be on the same team for once . i want neil to get out of this just as much as you do . neil : do n't get me wrong . i thank you for hiring an attorney for me . victor : neil , let me remind you henderson is one of the best lawyers in the country . neil : victor , i got myself into this mess , and i 'm gon na get myself out . nikki : we were both in that car . neil : nikki , i was drunk . i grabbed the wheel . i 'm the reason christine lost her baby . it 's my fault , and whatever happens from here on in is my world , not yours . nikki : will you try to talk some sense into him ?

christine : what are you still doing here ? nikki : uh , just finished , uh , seeing neil to get his bail . victor : i am very glad this whole ordeal is behind us , finally . paul : yes . uh , i am , too . and it gives me a chance to say how sorry i am for being so quick to think that you would intentionally hurt chris . christine : why are you apologizing to her ? it 's not like she 's so innocent in this . paul : chris . christine : no . she lied to the police , she lied to the court , all to cover for a man who cost us our baby . nikki : i was just trying to prevent one tragedy from becoming two . christine : yeah , well , now you 've got three . nikki : what do you mean ?

christine : no . i 'm done talking . you 're gon na pay for what you did . victor : christine , let 's get this straight -- nikki and i are both very , very upset about your loss -- very . but that gives you no right to go on a witch hunt . i wo n't allow it . christine : yeah , well , i 'm sorry , but you really have no say in the matter . victor : i will not allow it ! i will have my lawyers throw out your charges ! is that clear ? ! jack : do n't you think you 're taking this a bit too far ? phyllis : victor and kelly are teaming up against us . no . i think it sounds like something they would totally do . you 've just said you think he 's setting you up for a trap . we both know that he 's behind her sudden disappearance . jack : even if he is , she is in no shape to follow his orders . you should have heard her in this phone call . i 'm telling you , the one of her voice , everything she was saying -- phyllis : i 've heard her say a lot of things . none of them are true . jack : okay . i have a private investigator who is working with authorities to try to find her . hopefully they will before -- phyllis : what ? before she hurts herself ? jack : that is a real possibility . look , i want this to end , too . i do n't want it to end that way . michael : what 's with the long faces ? lauren : [ chuckles nervously ] do n't know what you 're talking about . cane and i were just passing time , waiting for you . cane : yeah . i have a business matter i 'd like to discuss with you . lauren : and i thought we could order dinner in and unwind a little , if you know what i mean . but first things first , and i 'll be back . michael : [ clears throat ] so , what can i do for you , cane ?

'cause every time she opens her mouth , i want to put my fist through it . but she 's right , though . i mean , we do have to figure out a way to get dad out of this . devon : especially since he 's not his best advocate right now , with all the guilt he 's feeling . lily : no . i 'm afraid that he does n't have it in him to even fight for himself . devon : i think i know someone who would , though , although neil 's not gon na like it . jack : [ sighs ] [ breathing deeply ] john : that 's a good book . you ought to finish it . jack : hey , dad . it 's been a while . john : oh . a little too long , from the looks of it . i hate to see you like this . jack : oh , dad , i really messed up this time . john : no . you did what you thought was right . jack : do n't make excuses for me . i do n't deserve it . no . everything that is happening is my fault . nikki : come in . phyllis : nikki , thank you for accepting me at the gate . nikki : and if we had said no , would that have stopped you ? phyllis : i could n't let victor 's visit to jack and me go without a follow - up . he left so quickly , we barely could digest his little bombshell . nikki : what is she talking about ? victor : nothing important , my dear . phyllis : wanting to buy jabot is n't important ? nikki : okay , wait . you want to buy jabot ? phyllis : and the question is , `` why ? `` victor : you want to know my motivation ? i 'll give it to you . michael : so , you 're planning a coup . cane : i 'd rather not call it a coup . michael : such an ugly word . cane : see , look -- the fact of the matter is i was , uh -- i was kind of railroaded into this number-2 position under duress . michael : duress ? cane : my father started blackmailing me 'cause he knew i was aware of hilary and devon 's affair and i was keeping it a secret from neil and lily . michael : colin . he finds his way into so many stories . so , you agreed to cede the position of c.e.o . to jill in order to keep colin silent ? cane : and now the secret 's out , so i do n't -- michael : and now you want what you think is your due . cane : no , no . i do n't think this is my due . i do n't . michael : then what exactly do you think ? because i got to tell you , i 'm not comfortable talking about this , much less representing you , or have you forgotten that jill is my sister - in - law ? cane : no . i have n't forgotten that , and i was very reticent about coming to you and talking about this because of that very reason . michael : well , why did you ? cane : if you want me to be honest with you , i like the top spot at chancellor . i like it a lot . i really do . and i want to take that company in the direction that i think it should go . part of it is 'cause i have a lot of ambition . michael : and the other part ? cane : i 'm concerned about chancellor , 'cause i really like the company , and i just do n't think right now jill can -- can run fenmore and chancellor . she ca n't do it . the employees -- they feel rudderless . they 're coming to me . they 're asking me questions that i 'm not authorized to give them answers for , so i just -- [ sighs ] i 'm kind of stuck . michael : maybe it is as simple as asking jill to pull back from fenmore 's . i mean , lauren is capable of handling fenmore 's on her own . she did for years . cane : no . she wo n't do that now . michael : why ? what 's different ? cane : well , because you 're dealing with this disease , and , you know , jill wants to be here for you and lauren , so she wo n't do that . michael : `` this disease `` ? john : nobody is at fault for this . the circumstances were beyond your control . jack : i should never have gotten involved with kelly . john : jack , you wanted a life , a future . you were told that phyllis would never be able to give that to you . jack : yeah , and as soon as phyllis came back , i should have made it clear to kelly there was no future for us . instead , i just strung her along . john : because you did n't want to hurt her . jack : and that 's exactly what i did . i gave her hope that there was some future for the two of us when there was none . i just took it away . no wonder she 's jealous of phyllis . john : well , now , it 's one thing to be jealous . it 's another thing to act on it the way she did . jack : oh , god , dad -- the lengths she went to . she actually poisoned herself ... all to set phyllis up for attempted murder . i - i bought in to it . i - i did n't realize how much she was struggling . john : you were n't trained to realize . kelly needed a doctor . jack : and i did n't get her one . john : ohh . jack : i did n't get her any help at all . i did n't help her one bit , dad , and now i 'd love to before it 's -- before it 's too late . victor : you want to know what my motivation is ? profit . jabot is doing better than it has in a long , long time -- ripe for an acquisition by newman . phyllis : so , you figured , `` why not make an offer ? `` victor : you bet . phyllis : even though you knew jack would turn you down ? victor : in business , nothing is ever irrevocable . depends on the sweetness of the proposition . phyllis : jack will never give up jabot . it took him years to get it back after that company went public . victor : you know whose fault that was ? jack abbott 's fault . he took that company public against the wishes of his father . it nearly killed john . phyllis : no . you know what nearly killed him ? victor : what ? phyllis : you buying up enough shares to make yourself a majority owner . why would you do that to a man you claim you respected ? victor : are you naive ? there are no emotions in business . it 's all about numbers . i never had an ill feeling toward john abbott as long as he lived , and he is 10 times the man jack will ever be . phyllis : and you will never let that go , because to you , jack will never measure up . victor : you bet . phyllis : and that bugs the hell out of you , 'cause you can not stand even the slightest bit of vulnerability . you attack it . you stamp it out . and i wonder why you even bothered to save his life in that building collapse . did you just do that so you could have the pleasure of annihilating him yourself ? nikki : all right , phyllis . that is enough . how dare you come down on victor when he gave you a place to live , helped you when nobody else would ? victor : let me ask you something . how do you have the audacity to come in here and give me a lecture ? i know you 're overwrought . i do n't blame you , considering what you 've gone through the past couple of years . it 's enormous . but remember one thing -- i saved your damn life . phyllis : yes , you did . victor : you bet . phyllis : and i 'm appreciative , which is why i 'm so damn angry right now that you were trying to take it away from me . you , jack , and i were gon na work together to make sure that kelly stayed locked up . but then , suddenly , you set her loose ? what did you do ? did you set up a little hideaway for her so that she can just stay put and be quiet and you tell her when you need her when whatever you have planned for jack ? nikki : my , my goodness . can you not be so dramatic ? go ahead , victor , and tell her that you have no idea where kelly is . victor : but i do . neil : it really does n't surprise me that you 'd be filing a civil suit against me . i 'll admit i was reckless . but you have to understand that my life has been spinning out of control ever since i found out that my wife has been sleeping with my son , and i - i started drinking very heavily to try to numb the pain . christine : i hope you do n't expect me to feel sorry for you . neil : chris , i would never expect you to feel sorry for me . i certainly do n't . i 'm here to simply take responsibility for what i 've done , and , honestly , i should have done this a lot sooner . christine : yes , you should have . paul : neil ... i appreciate you taking the initiative now . neil : you have no idea ... how sorry i am . every day for the rest of my life , i will always think of what you 've lost because of me . now , i do n't know if that makes a difference to you or if you 'll ever accept my apology ... but i 'm here to offer it . christine , i will say this forever and a day . i am deeply sorry for what i cost you -- your baby , your family -- and i 've come forward , and i 'm telling you the truth so i can give you some sense of closure , maybe . christine : you think i can just forget about this and move on ? paul : no . i 'm sure that 's not what neil meant . christine : all the words and all the apologies will never make up for what you did . [ voice breaking ] i will never forgive you for this . [ knock on door ] paul : [ sighs heavily ] winston ! what are you doing here ? christine : i called him . this is ada winston mobley . he 'll be prosecuting you . since i ca n't do it myself , there is nobody i trust more than winston to nail your ass to the wall . paul : i think you should go now , neil . hilary : neil . neil : i do n't have time for you . hilary : well , make time , or you 'll regret it . michael : i 'm not sure what you mean by , uh , `` this disease . `` cane : i mean the cancer . michael : my cancer ? cane : yeah . oh , i 'm sorry . no . hey . i apologize . i 'm sorry . michael : there 's absolutely no reason to be sorry . i just was n't aware that this was an appropriate topic of conversation amongst acquaintances . we cross paths occasionally , so you 'll have to forgive me if i was n't prepared to delve into a discussion of my cancer . cane : okay . all right . i did n't mean to offend you . i did n't . i thought it was , uh -- i thought it was common knowledge . i 'm sorry . michael : yeah . well , with jill and phyllis in the know , i 'm sure it 's just a matter of moments before it becomes completely common knowledge . cane : that is probably true . it 's just , uh , having gone through this with lily , i know that it gave her a lot of comfort , having family and friends around for support . michael : yeah , i 'm sure , but that was her cancer , and this is my cancer . and i was hoping to keep it mine . cane : no . it 's just in my experience , you know , lily talked about it , you know , and it was like a lifeline for her , so if you want to talk about it -- michael : i do n't want to talk about it . cane : i understand . all right . um , well , if you can , uh , take a look at the contract and let me know what you think , i 'd appreciate it , so ... michael : radiation therapy . radiation , it makes me cranky -- more cranky than usual . i did n't mean to snap at you . cane : hey , everybody 's snapping at me lately , so why ca n't you ? michael : you were just trying to be helpful with your offer of talking . i should tell you that i will never , ever take you up on that offer . i appreciate it . um ... you 're a good man . i 'll -- i 'm gon na take a look at this contract . cane : i appreciate that . michael : okay . cane : you be well , michael . john : jackie , you are way too tough on yourself . you 're a good man who made the best possible choices based on information given to you . i would have done exactly as you did in your place . jack : no , you would n't have . you 'd have seen the signs that kelly was struggling , and you 'd have done something about it . john : you always put me on a pedestal i do n't deserve . look at me . i am an ordinary man . i 've made good decisions and bad ones . jack : not this bad . john : look , i know how worried you are about this young girl and how torn up you 'd be if anything happened to her . but , jackie , her fate is n't up to you . it never was . her problems began long before she met you . jack : that does n't give me a pass . do n't you see ? i added to her pain , and then i just looked away . and if , god forbid , she winds up dead ... everyone 's gon na assume that she self - destructed . but i will know ... that i had a big hand in destroying her life . [ sighs ] victor : after kelly jumped bail , i had my people search for her . phyllis : are you saying they found her ? victor : kelly andrews is dead . nikki : my god . what happened ? victor : indications are she committed suicide . phyllis : that 's a little convenient , do n't you think ? nikki : please . what reason would he have to lie ? victor : she is gone , i assure you . phyllis : can you prove it ? victor : what would it take ? phyllis : for me to see it for myself . neil : how could there possibly be anything i could regret more than letting you into my life ? there 's not a snowball 's chance in hell that i 'm gon na let you back in . hilary : neil , listen to me . neil , listen to me . i can keep you from getting convicted . [ sighs ] there are ways to get the case thrown out . neil : that 'll never happen . i already confessed . hilary : well , people confess for all kinds of reasons . i could testify that you told me you had nothing to live for because of me and that 's the reason why you decided to take the fall for nikki . neil : and who 's gon na believe that ? hilary : what reason would i have to lie ? why would i put myself out to save my ex ? neil : ha . i saw you at the door when christine was telling me that she was gon na file a civil suit against me . you see , you 're worried that you 're gon na lose out on a big chunk of the divorce settlement . it 's almost worth taking any chance i 've got to make sure you end up with nothing -- zero , boo -- just like you deserve . winston : he gave a full confession . this is gon na be the easiest case i 've ever had . christine : i 'm expecting you to get the maximum penalty . winston : i wo n't let you down . christine : thanks . paul : all right , winston . winston : paul . christine : he 's the best . he 's gon na destroy neil . paul : so , is that what you want ? was n't one life enough ? christine : that one life was ours -- our child . paul : but all this hate , this rage , wo n't bring her back . christine : yeah , where 's your hate and where 's your rage ? you act like neil is just a regular guy about to stand trial . does n't it matter to you that he was the one that killed our baby ? ! maybe not . you already have children , so , what , no big deal if you do n't have one more ? paul : i wanted that baby more than anything , and not because i would have a chance to raise our daughter from birth ... but because she was our daughter . i loved you for so long , chris , i 'd pretty much given up hope for us . but you have no idea -- you ca n't imagine -- how grateful and amazed i was when you became my wife again . truly , i thought , `` wow . once again , anything 's possible . `` i 'd finally gotten a second chance that i had hoped for . [ crying ] and when you told me that you were pregnant with our child ... i was the happiest man on earth . so , please , do not tell me ... that our daughter meant less to me than she did to you ... 'cause i will mourn her absence for the rest of my days . christine : [ crying ] you 're gon na ha -- you 're gon na have to , because there is n't gon na be another one . paul : you say that now . you do . just wait . christine : it wo n't matter , because ... i ca n't -- i ca n't have any more children . lily : dad . neil : hey . lily : hi . good news . neil : yeah ? is it about my bail ? lily : yes , that , and we found the perfect lawyer to represent you . neil : really ? lily : now , keep an open mind , but leslie has agreed to be your attorney . leslie : hello , neil . it 's nice seeing you again . i just wish the circumstances were better . neil : i thought you were working as a prosecutor . leslie : oh , i got a job on the legal aid board instead . but when devon called and told me what was going on , i requested a leave to take your case . neil : mighty considerate of you , young man , but i can speak for myself . thank you very much . devon : well , i 'm just trying to help you . leslie : i know things ended badly between us , but i was hoping we were beyond that now , especially since you need some help . neil : is that what you were hoping ? i think i can handle things . thank you . leslie : you 've been charged with second - degree reckless homicide . that carries a sentence of up to 25 years -- hell of a long time to serve for an unfortunate accident . now have a seat . let 's find a way to get you out of this . lily : dad , listen to leslie , okay ? i 'll be right back . lily : hi . cane : hey . it 's good news . your dad got bail , huh ? lily : yeah . why do n't you come over and say something ? cane : i just wanted to talk to you first . lily : about what ? cane : how would you feel about me moving back into the bedroom tonight ? lauren : i 'm back . michael : wearing a different coat , i see . lauren : that 's right . you should see what 's under it or , uh , not under it . michael : i thought we were gon na order out for dinner . what about thai ? i 've been craving thai . lauren : really ? have you been craving it as much as this ? michael : [ chuckles ] lauren : [ giggles ] michael : what if somebody walks in ? lauren : yeah , what if they do ? half the fun is seeing if someone 's gon na walk in or not . michael : just stop . stop it ! nikki : well , that was a shock . victor : yeah . nikki : i was never really all that fond of kelly , but i certainly did n't wish her ill . victor : hopefully , she 's in a better place now . nikki : i doubt jack would agree with you . victor : that 's his problem . nikki : okay . let me ask you something . victor : mm - hmm ? nikki : what 's the real reason you wanted to buy jabot ? what do you have up your sleeve ? jack : hey ! i was looking for you . where you been ? phyllis : i was at victor 's , trying to see what he was up to . jack : honey ... phyllis : before you tell me i should have just left it alone , i - i have something to tell you . jack : about his plans for jabot ? phyllis : look , it 's about kelly . he tracked her down . jack : and ? phyllis : i 'm very sorry , jack . you were right to be worried about all of this all along . i did n't want to believe it , but i saw it for myself . jack : what do you mean ? you saw what ? phyllis : a picture of kelly . jack : is that it ? phyllis : yeah . look , you do n't have to do this right now . cane : so , i spent some time today talking with michael and lauren about michael 's cancer , and , uh ... it made me think about what we went through . but there 's , um ... there 's something i have n't told you . i used to lay in bed at night , and i 'd -- i 'd just -- i 'd watch you breathe , and i 'd just watch your chest go up and down , and that 's how i knew you were still with me . and i 'd lay there and just watch you breathe until i 'd fall asleep . i 'm not happy if you 're not the last thing i see at night or the first thing i see in the morning . i 'm just not happy . hmm ? lily : i guess i have ... missed your snoring . cane : i do n't snore . lily : do n't get me started . do n't . cane : i do n't snore . i do n't . so ... all i want to ask you is ... can you fall asleep in my arms again ? lily : i 'd like that . lauren : sorry . i ... you know , we 've been under so much stress lately , i ... i just wanted us to have fun like we used to . michael : you want everything to be the same . it 's not gon na be . lauren : this disease does not define you . you are still you . michael : for how long ? lauren : oh , honey , come on . michael : look ... i have been fighting this thing with everything i have . how could it not change me ? how could it not change us ? what happens once this fight is over ? i ca n't pretend anymore . i tried . i tried . i just ca n't do it . paul : what do you mean , you ca n't have any more children ? christine : there were comp -- complications , paul . paul : what kind of complications ? why did n't you tell me ? christine : i just could n't . i 'm sorry . paul : oh , god , chris . neil : you 're right , as usual . i do need some help . i just do n't think you 're the one to give it to me . leslie : okay . forget about what happened between us . forget about devon and hilary and think about whether you want your life confined to a cold , cramped cell . devon : leslie 's right . neil : did i ask for your opinion ? devon : no , you did n't ask for my opinion , but i 'm still gon na give it to you . all right ? i know you do n't think of me as your son anymore , but i am your son , and so is moses . and who 's gon na explain to him why his father 's no longer in his life ? who 's gon na explain to charlie and mattie why their grandpa is gone ? do you really understand that if you get the maximum sentence , you could be put in jail for almost the rest of your life ? is that what you want ? or do you want this woman to fight for you like no one else will ? neil : [ inhales deeply ] okay . i 'm doing it for my children ... not for you . devon : as long as you 're gon na do it . hilary : oh , my gosh . pardon me . i am -- i 'm so sorry . my head is just -- pfft ! -- in the clouds today . winston : no harm done . hilary : well , the least i can do is buy you a cup of coffee . you care to join me ? phyllis : you 've done nothing wrong . please try to remember that . hey ... i 'm gon na give you some time alone , okay ? jack : yeah . phyllis : okay . victor : i 'm being perfectly up front about my intentions for jabot . nikki : so , you 're not trying to steal the company ? victor : let me put it this way ... there will come a day when jack abbott will beg for my help ... and i 'll give it to him ... in exchange for everything he owns . [ next_on ] sage : that bingo that you know from boarding school -- he 's gone , and so is the man that i wanted to help . adam : well , i think we 'd be dynamite together , actually . jack : it 's probably better , though , that you hear it from me . stitch : hear what ? jack : kelly 's dead . stitch : what ? | neil apologizes to christine , but she says she will never forgive him , and he will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law . hilary offers to help by telling the judge that neil was out of his mind because of her . neil wants nothing to do with her . cane asks michael to get him out of his contract , because he was under duress when he signed it . now he wants to be in charge . michael does n't feel comfortable with it , because jill is his sister - in - law . he snaps at cane then apologizes , explaining the radiation makes him cranky . cane is reminded of when lily had cancer . he asks her if he can move back into the bedroom with her . she agrees . meanwhile , lauren tries to convince michael that he will always be the man she loves no matter what the disease does to him . phyllis confronts victor about wanting to buy jabot . victor says it 's for profit , just business . he admits he knows what happened to kelly . she committed suicide . phyllis obtains a picture of kelly , who does appear to be dead . she shows it to jack , and he feels guilty , because he did nothing to stop it . | <s>[INST] [ door opens ] paul : hey , there ! i was just thinking about you . how did the arraignment go ? christine : just as i expected . paul : that does n't sound good . christine : even with neil 's full confession , there 's gon na be some problems . paul : do n't tell me the judge threw out the case . christine : no , but he will , if nikki and victor get their way . nikki : well , that could n't have gone much better . i was worried , though , you were n't gon na get bail . victor : well , i guess a lot of this could have been avoided had you admitted responsibility for the accident a little sooner . nikki : well , i 'm the one who convinced him to not come forward , as you well know . victor : neil , would you like me to tell my lawyer to be by your side during the trial ? neil : thanks , victor . that 's really not necessary . lily : you 're sure dad 's out on bail ? devon : that 's what nikki 's text said . they 're at the police station right now , wrapping up loose ends . lily : wish i could have been there for him myself , but i had no one here to cover for me . devon : at least he wanted you there . lily : well -- oh , god . the cockroach is here . devon : you can come out . were you listening to us ? hilary : well , you know , it 's a good thing that i was , or i would n't have heard that neil finally confessed to killing christine 's baby . lily : he did n't kill anybody . devon : it was an accident . hilary : mm , yeah . i know that 's what he told you , but it 's not like you can trust the word of a drunk . lily : he grabbed the wheel of nikki 's car , and christine happened to be in the way . that 's it . hilary : good luck convincing a jury of that . i hope you hired a dream team of lawyers . devon : what difference does it make to you ? you set out to ruin neil 's life . you did it . why do you keep asking questions about him ? why do you even care ? lauren : i hope you 're ready for a little romance . ohh ! cane : yeah . i think your husband may have a little problem with that . lauren : [ laughing ] yeah . cane , i 'm so sorry . um , michael 's out at a meeting , and i thought i would surprise him . cane : okay . well , it looks like i 'm interrupting , so , uh -- lauren : oh , no , no . he 'll be -- he 'll be back . cane : i just wanted to discuss some business with him . lauren : all right . he 'll be back really soon . i promise . cane : you sure ? i mean , i do n't want to interrupt your plans . lauren : no . i mean , what 's an extra half - hour when you have the whole evening , right ? cane : yeah . i remember evenings like that . lauren : it 's hard to find time when you have little kids . i remember . cane : but that 's not really what the problem is . things have been a little tense at home since , uh , well , lily found out at devon and hilary 's affair , and then you couple that with the fact she 's still reeling from the plane crash . and now things will never be the same , you know . lauren : you know that 's really not true , right ? phyllis : i have a very bad , bad feeling about this . jack : do n't let victor get to you . phyllis : it 's not just about victor . it 's kelly . she 's still out there , and she 's still a threat . jack : not to you . phyllis : you do n't know that , jack . she is capable of anything , especially if she wants it bad enough . jack : not if it 's gon na cost her her freedom . phyllis : i wish i could believe that . jack : you can believe that . look at me . trust me . the last thing kelly wants is to go to prison . that 's the only thing that 's gon na happen if she comes back here . phyllis : you see , a woman like that does not give up and just walk away , and neither does victor . he is after something . they both are , and they are working together , which means we need to be ready for them . cane : you see , it 's not the first time i 've kept something from lily , so she has all this resentment built up towards me . lauren : well , resentment that you think you can get past ? cane : i do n't know . but , hey , she 's talking to me again , and i 'm back in the house . lauren : okay . well , that 's big , right ? cane : no , but i 'm in the guest room , so ... lauren : ah , baby steps . cane : yeah . lauren : that 's always how michael and i have handled things when we 've had problems . of course , we 've never been faced with anything like this before . cane : you mean his cancer ? lauren : i mean , his prognosis is good . but still ... cane : still , it 's overwhelming . lauren : how did you cope ? you know , remember when lily was so sick that she was afraid to go to sleep because she did n't think that she was gon na wake up ? cane : i mean , i ... i used to sit there , and i 'd think to myself , you know , `` why is this happening to lily ? she did n't hurt anybody , so why does she have to suffer ? `` you have so many questions . there 's no answer for the questions , so all you do is help . you sit there and you think how much you love them . you tell them how beautiful they are , that the cancer 's not gon na change who they are . and then you honor that vow you made to love them to the end , you know ? and nothing is -- nothing 's gon na change it , you know ? nothing can change that . michael : oh , wow . a party ! lauren : [ sniffles ] michael : or possibly the saddest party ever ? what 's going on ? devon : answer me ! why do you even bother with us ? is it to gloat about screwing us over , or is there another reason that you 're so invested ? lily : no . the only thing hilary is invested in is her bank account , because if dad has legal problems , that affects divorce and , more importantly , her settlement . devon : well , that makes a lot of sense . so , you 're after his money ? hilary : well , what if i am ? at least we 'd be on the same team for once . i want neil to get out of this just as much as you do . neil : do n't get me wrong . i thank you for hiring an attorney for me . victor : neil , let me remind you henderson is one of the best lawyers in the country . neil : victor , i got myself into this mess , and i 'm gon na get myself out . nikki : we were both in that car . neil : nikki , i was drunk . i grabbed the wheel . i 'm the reason christine lost her baby . it 's my fault , and whatever happens from here on in is my world , not yours . nikki : will you try to talk some sense into him ? neil : nothing 's gon na change my mind . now , i 'm gon na go grab my stuff , go outside , and grab some fresh air for a change . victor : if you change your mind , you phone me . nikki : oh , my god . he 's making a mistake . victor : he 's taking responsibility for what happened . let him , okay ? christine : what are you still doing here ? nikki : uh , just finished , uh , seeing neil to get his bail . victor : i am very glad this whole ordeal is behind us , finally . paul : yes . uh , i am , too . and it gives me a chance to say how sorry i am for being so quick to think that you would intentionally hurt chris . christine : why are you apologizing to her ? it 's not like she 's so innocent in this . paul : chris . christine : no . she lied to the police , she lied to the court , all to cover for a man who cost us our baby . nikki : i was just trying to prevent one tragedy from becoming two . christine : yeah , well , now you 've got three . nikki : what do you mean ? christine : i 'm charging you with obstructing a police officer . victor : whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa . christine , are you sure we can not solve this amicably ? paul : why do n't you and i talk about this ? christine : no . i 'm done talking . you 're gon na pay for what you did . victor : christine , let 's get this straight -- nikki and i are both very , very upset about your loss -- very . but that gives you no right to go on a witch hunt . i wo n't allow it . christine : yeah , well , i 'm sorry , but you really have no say in the matter . victor : i will not allow it ! i will have my lawyers throw out your charges ! is that clear ? ! jack : do n't you think you 're taking this a bit too far ? phyllis : victor and kelly are teaming up against us . no . i think it sounds like something they would totally do . you 've just said you think he 's setting you up for a trap . we both know that he 's behind her sudden disappearance . jack : even if he is , she is in no shape to follow his orders . you should have heard her in this phone call . i 'm telling you , the one of her voice , everything she was saying -- phyllis : i 've heard her say a lot of things . none of them are true . jack : okay . i have a private investigator who is working with authorities to try to find her . hopefully they will before -- phyllis : what ? before she hurts herself ? jack : that is a real possibility . look , i want this to end , too . i do n't want it to end that way . michael : what 's with the long faces ? lauren : [ chuckles nervously ] do n't know what you 're talking about . cane and i were just passing time , waiting for you . cane : yeah . i have a business matter i 'd like to discuss with you . lauren : and i thought we could order dinner in and unwind a little , if you know what i mean . but first things first , and i 'll be back . michael : [ clears throat ] so , what can i do for you , cane ? cane : um ... i 'd like you to take a look at that for me , if you could . michael : your contract with chancellor ? cane : i 'd like to know if i 'm locked into this number-2 position or if there 's a way around it . michael : you sound suspiciously like you want a way to make an end run around jill and take over the company for yourself . paul : neil . i thought you 'd be gone by now . neil : i wanted a moment alone with you both first . christine : let me guess -- you 're gon na recant your confession ? you did n't steer the car right toward me ? you were avoiding a pothole ? paul : i think we should give neil a chance to speak . christine : no . neil can speak all he wants . it 's not gon na change . nothing is going to help . not only are you facing criminal charges , but i am going to file a civil suit against you and nikki for all you 're worth . i think that 's only fair , after what you took from us . lily : what is it gon na take to get rid of that woman ? 'cause every time she opens her mouth , i want to put my fist through it . but she 's right , though . i mean , we do have to figure out a way to get dad out of this . devon : especially since he 's not his best advocate right now , with all the guilt he 's feeling . lily : no . i 'm afraid that he does n't have it in him to even fight for himself . devon : i think i know someone who would , though , although neil 's not gon na like it . jack : [ sighs ] [ breathing deeply ] john : that 's a good book . you ought to finish it . jack : hey , dad . it 's been a while . john : oh . a little too long , from the looks of it . i hate to see you like this . jack : oh , dad , i really messed up this time . john : no . you did what you thought was right . jack : do n't make excuses for me . i do n't deserve it . no . everything that is happening is my fault . nikki : come in . phyllis : nikki , thank you for accepting me at the gate . nikki : and if we had said no , would that have stopped you ? phyllis : i could n't let victor 's visit to jack and me go without a follow - up . he left so quickly , we barely could digest his little bombshell . nikki : what is she talking about ? victor : nothing important , my dear . phyllis : wanting to buy jabot is n't important ? nikki : okay , wait . you want to buy jabot ? phyllis : and the question is , `` why ? `` victor : you want to know my motivation ? i 'll give it to you . michael : so , you 're planning a coup . cane : i 'd rather not call it a coup . michael : such an ugly word . cane : see , look -- the fact of the matter is i was , uh -- i was kind of railroaded into this number-2 position under duress . michael : duress ? cane : my father started blackmailing me 'cause he knew i was aware of hilary and devon 's affair and i was keeping it a secret from neil and lily . michael : colin . he finds his way into so many stories . so , you agreed to cede the position of c.e.o . to jill in order to keep colin silent ? cane : and now the secret 's out , so i do n't -- michael : and now you want what you think is your due . cane : no , no . i do n't think this is my due . i do n't . michael : then what exactly do you think ? because i got to tell you , i 'm not comfortable talking about this , much less representing you , or have you forgotten that jill is my sister - in - law ? cane : no . i have n't forgotten that , and i was very reticent about coming to you and talking about this because of that very reason . michael : well , why did you ? cane : if you want me to be honest with you , i like the top spot at chancellor . i like it a lot . i really do . and i want to take that company in the direction that i think it should go . part of it is 'cause i have a lot of ambition . michael : and the other part ? cane : i 'm concerned about chancellor , 'cause i really like the company , and i just do n't think right now jill can -- can run fenmore and chancellor . she ca n't do it . the employees -- they feel rudderless . they 're coming to me . they 're asking me questions that i 'm not authorized to give them answers for , so i just -- [ sighs ] i 'm kind of stuck . michael : maybe it is as simple as asking jill to pull back from fenmore 's . i mean , lauren is capable of handling fenmore 's on her own . she did for years . cane : no . she wo n't do that now . michael : why ? what 's different ? cane : well , because you 're dealing with this disease , and , you know , jill wants to be here for you and lauren , so she wo n't do that . michael : `` this disease `` ? john : nobody is at fault for this . the circumstances were beyond your control . jack : i should never have gotten involved with kelly . john : jack , you wanted a life , a future . you were told that phyllis would never be able to give that to you . jack : yeah , and as soon as phyllis came back , i should have made it clear to kelly there was no future for us . instead , i just strung her along . john : because you did n't want to hurt her . jack : and that 's exactly what i did . i gave her hope that there was some future for the two of us when there was none . i just took it away . no wonder she 's jealous of phyllis . john : well , now , it 's one thing to be jealous . it 's another thing to act on it the way she did . jack : oh , god , dad -- the lengths she went to . she actually poisoned herself ... all to set phyllis up for attempted murder . i - i bought in to it . i - i did n't realize how much she was struggling . john : you were n't trained to realize . kelly needed a doctor . jack : and i did n't get her one . john : ohh . jack : i did n't get her any help at all . i did n't help her one bit , dad , and now i 'd love to before it 's -- before it 's too late . victor : you want to know what my motivation is ? profit . jabot is doing better than it has in a long , long time -- ripe for an acquisition by newman . phyllis : so , you figured , `` why not make an offer ? `` victor : you bet . phyllis : even though you knew jack would turn you down ? victor : in business , nothing is ever irrevocable . depends on the sweetness of the proposition . phyllis : jack will never give up jabot . it took him years to get it back after that company went public . victor : you know whose fault that was ? jack abbott 's fault . he took that company public against the wishes of his father . it nearly killed john . phyllis : no . you know what nearly killed him ? victor : what ? phyllis : you buying up enough shares to make yourself a majority owner . why would you do that to a man you claim you respected ? victor : are you naive ? there are no emotions in business . it 's all about numbers . i never had an ill feeling toward john abbott as long as he lived , and he is 10 times the man jack will ever be . phyllis : and you will never let that go , because to you , jack will never measure up . victor : you bet . phyllis : and that bugs the hell out of you , 'cause you can not stand even the slightest bit of vulnerability . you attack it . you stamp it out . and i wonder why you even bothered to save his life in that building collapse . did you just do that so you could have the pleasure of annihilating him yourself ? nikki : all right , phyllis . that is enough . how dare you come down on victor when he gave you a place to live , helped you when nobody else would ? victor : let me ask you something . how do you have the audacity to come in here and give me a lecture ? i know you 're overwrought . i do n't blame you , considering what you 've gone through the past couple of years . it 's enormous . but remember one thing -- i saved your damn life . phyllis : yes , you did . victor : you bet . phyllis : and i 'm appreciative , which is why i 'm so damn angry right now that you were trying to take it away from me . you , jack , and i were gon na work together to make sure that kelly stayed locked up . but then , suddenly , you set her loose ? what did you do ? did you set up a little hideaway for her so that she can just stay put and be quiet and you tell her when you need her when whatever you have planned for jack ? nikki : my , my goodness . can you not be so dramatic ? go ahead , victor , and tell her that you have no idea where kelly is . victor : but i do . neil : it really does n't surprise me that you 'd be filing a civil suit against me . i 'll admit i was reckless . but you have to understand that my life has been spinning out of control ever since i found out that my wife has been sleeping with my son , and i - i started drinking very heavily to try to numb the pain . christine : i hope you do n't expect me to feel sorry for you . neil : chris , i would never expect you to feel sorry for me . i certainly do n't . i 'm here to simply take responsibility for what i 've done , and , honestly , i should have done this a lot sooner . christine : yes , you should have . paul : neil ... i appreciate you taking the initiative now . neil : you have no idea ... how sorry i am . every day for the rest of my life , i will always think of what you 've lost because of me . now , i do n't know if that makes a difference to you or if you 'll ever accept my apology ... but i 'm here to offer it . christine , i will say this forever and a day . i am deeply sorry for what i cost you -- your baby , your family -- and i 've come forward , and i 'm telling you the truth so i can give you some sense of closure , maybe . christine : you think i can just forget about this and move on ? paul : no . i 'm sure that 's not what neil meant . christine : all the words and all the apologies will never make up for what you did . [ voice breaking ] i will never forgive you for this . [ knock on door ] paul : [ sighs heavily ] winston ! what are you doing here ? christine : i called him . this is ada winston mobley . he 'll be prosecuting you . since i ca n't do it myself , there is nobody i trust more than winston to nail your ass to the wall . paul : i think you should go now , neil . hilary : neil . neil : i do n't have time for you . hilary : well , make time , or you 'll regret it . michael : i 'm not sure what you mean by , uh , `` this disease . `` cane : i mean the cancer . michael : my cancer ? cane : yeah . oh , i 'm sorry . no . hey . i apologize . i 'm sorry . michael : there 's absolutely no reason to be sorry . i just was n't aware that this was an appropriate topic of conversation amongst acquaintances . we cross paths occasionally , so you 'll have to forgive me if i was n't prepared to delve into a discussion of my cancer . cane : okay . all right . i did n't mean to offend you . i did n't . i thought it was , uh -- i thought it was common knowledge . i 'm sorry . michael : yeah . well , with jill and phyllis in the know , i 'm sure it 's just a matter of moments before it becomes completely common knowledge . cane : that is probably true . it 's just , uh , having gone through this with lily , i know that it gave her a lot of comfort , having family and friends around for support . michael : yeah , i 'm sure , but that was her cancer , and this is my cancer . and i was hoping to keep it mine . cane : no . it 's just in my experience , you know , lily talked about it , you know , and it was like a lifeline for her , so if you want to talk about it -- michael : i do n't want to talk about it . cane : i understand . all right . um , well , if you can , uh , take a look at the contract and let me know what you think , i 'd appreciate it , so ... michael : radiation therapy . radiation , it makes me cranky -- more cranky than usual . i did n't mean to snap at you . cane : hey , everybody 's snapping at me lately , so why ca n't you ? michael : you were just trying to be helpful with your offer of talking . i should tell you that i will never , ever take you up on that offer . i appreciate it . um ... you 're a good man . i 'll -- i 'm gon na take a look at this contract . cane : i appreciate that . michael : okay . cane : you be well , michael . john : jackie , you are way too tough on yourself . you 're a good man who made the best possible choices based on information given to you . i would have done exactly as you did in your place . jack : no , you would n't have . you 'd have seen the signs that kelly was struggling , and you 'd have done something about it . john : you always put me on a pedestal i do n't deserve . look at me . i am an ordinary man . i 've made good decisions and bad ones . jack : not this bad . john : look , i know how worried you are about this young girl and how torn up you 'd be if anything happened to her . but , jackie , her fate is n't up to you . it never was . her problems began long before she met you . jack : that does n't give me a pass . do n't you see ? i added to her pain , and then i just looked away . and if , god forbid , she winds up dead ... everyone 's gon na assume that she self - destructed . but i will know ... that i had a big hand in destroying her life . [ sighs ] victor : after kelly jumped bail , i had my people search for her . phyllis : are you saying they found her ? victor : kelly andrews is dead . nikki : my god . what happened ? victor : indications are she committed suicide . phyllis : that 's a little convenient , do n't you think ? nikki : please . what reason would he have to lie ? victor : she is gone , i assure you . phyllis : can you prove it ? victor : what would it take ? phyllis : for me to see it for myself . neil : how could there possibly be anything i could regret more than letting you into my life ? there 's not a snowball 's chance in hell that i 'm gon na let you back in . hilary : neil , listen to me . neil , listen to me . i can keep you from getting convicted . [ sighs ] there are ways to get the case thrown out . neil : that 'll never happen . i already confessed . hilary : well , people confess for all kinds of reasons . i could testify that you told me you had nothing to live for because of me and that 's the reason why you decided to take the fall for nikki . neil : and who 's gon na believe that ? hilary : what reason would i have to lie ? why would i put myself out to save my ex ? neil : ha . i saw you at the door when christine was telling me that she was gon na file a civil suit against me . you see , you 're worried that you 're gon na lose out on a big chunk of the divorce settlement . it 's almost worth taking any chance i 've got to make sure you end up with nothing -- zero , boo -- just like you deserve . winston : he gave a full confession . this is gon na be the easiest case i 've ever had . christine : i 'm expecting you to get the maximum penalty . winston : i wo n't let you down . christine : thanks . paul : all right , winston . winston : paul . christine : he 's the best . he 's gon na destroy neil . paul : so , is that what you want ? was n't one life enough ? christine : that one life was ours -- our child . paul : but all this hate , this rage , wo n't bring her back . christine : yeah , where 's your hate and where 's your rage ? you act like neil is just a regular guy about to stand trial . does n't it matter to you that he was the one that killed our baby ? ! maybe not . you already have children , so , what , no big deal if you do n't have one more ? paul : i wanted that baby more than anything , and not because i would have a chance to raise our daughter from birth ... but because she was our daughter . i loved you for so long , chris , i 'd pretty much given up hope for us . but you have no idea -- you ca n't imagine -- how grateful and amazed i was when you became my wife again . truly , i thought , `` wow . once again , anything 's possible . `` i 'd finally gotten a second chance that i had hoped for . [ crying ] and when you told me that you were pregnant with our child ... i was the happiest man on earth . so , please , do not tell me ... that our daughter meant less to me than she did to you ... 'cause i will mourn her absence for the rest of my days . christine : [ crying ] you 're gon na ha -- you 're gon na have to , because there is n't gon na be another one . paul : you say that now . you do . just wait . christine : it wo n't matter , because ... i ca n't -- i ca n't have any more children . lily : dad . neil : hey . lily : hi . good news . neil : yeah ? is it about my bail ? lily : yes , that , and we found the perfect lawyer to represent you . neil : really ? lily : now , keep an open mind , but leslie has agreed to be your attorney . leslie : hello , neil . it 's nice seeing you again . i just wish the circumstances were better . neil : i thought you were working as a prosecutor . leslie : oh , i got a job on the legal aid board instead . but when devon called and told me what was going on , i requested a leave to take your case . neil : mighty considerate of you , young man , but i can speak for myself . thank you very much . devon : well , i 'm just trying to help you . leslie : i know things ended badly between us , but i was hoping we were beyond that now , especially since you need some help . neil : is that what you were hoping ? i think i can handle things . thank you . leslie : you 've been charged with second - degree reckless homicide . that carries a sentence of up to 25 years -- hell of a long time to serve for an unfortunate accident . now have a seat . let 's find a way to get you out of this . lily : dad , listen to leslie , okay ? i 'll be right back . lily : hi . cane : hey . it 's good news . your dad got bail , huh ? lily : yeah . why do n't you come over and say something ? cane : i just wanted to talk to you first . lily : about what ? cane : how would you feel about me moving back into the bedroom tonight ? lauren : i 'm back . michael : wearing a different coat , i see . lauren : that 's right . you should see what 's under it or , uh , not under it . michael : i thought we were gon na order out for dinner . what about thai ? i 've been craving thai . lauren : really ? have you been craving it as much as this ? michael : [ chuckles ] lauren : [ giggles ] michael : what if somebody walks in ? lauren : yeah , what if they do ? half the fun is seeing if someone 's gon na walk in or not . michael : just stop . stop it ! nikki : well , that was a shock . victor : yeah . nikki : i was never really all that fond of kelly , but i certainly did n't wish her ill . victor : hopefully , she 's in a better place now . nikki : i doubt jack would agree with you . victor : that 's his problem . nikki : okay . let me ask you something . victor : mm - hmm ? nikki : what 's the real reason you wanted to buy jabot ? what do you have up your sleeve ? jack : hey ! i was looking for you . where you been ? phyllis : i was at victor 's , trying to see what he was up to . jack : honey ... phyllis : before you tell me i should have just left it alone , i - i have something to tell you . jack : about his plans for jabot ? phyllis : look , it 's about kelly . he tracked her down . jack : and ? phyllis : i 'm very sorry , jack . you were right to be worried about all of this all along . i did n't want to believe it , but i saw it for myself . jack : what do you mean ? you saw what ? phyllis : a picture of kelly . jack : is that it ? phyllis : yeah . look , you do n't have to do this right now . cane : so , i spent some time today talking with michael and lauren about michael 's cancer , and , uh ... it made me think about what we went through . but there 's , um ... there 's something i have n't told you . i used to lay in bed at night , and i 'd -- i 'd just -- i 'd watch you breathe , and i 'd just watch your chest go up and down , and that 's how i knew you were still with me . and i 'd lay there and just watch you breathe until i 'd fall asleep . i 'm not happy if you 're not the last thing i see at night or the first thing i see in the morning . i 'm just not happy . hmm ? lily : i guess i have ... missed your snoring . cane : i do n't snore . lily : do n't get me started . do n't . cane : i do n't snore . i do n't . so ... all i want to ask you is ... can you fall asleep in my arms again ? lily : i 'd like that . lauren : sorry . i ... you know , we 've been under so much stress lately , i ... i just wanted us to have fun like we used to . michael : you want everything to be the same . it 's not gon na be . lauren : this disease does not define you . you are still you . michael : for how long ? lauren : oh , honey , come on . michael : look ... i have been fighting this thing with everything i have . how could it not change me ? how could it not change us ? what happens once this fight is over ? i ca n't pretend anymore . i tried . i tried . i just ca n't do it . paul : what do you mean , you ca n't have any more children ? christine : there were comp -- complications , paul . paul : what kind of complications ? why did n't you tell me ? christine : i just could n't . i 'm sorry . paul : oh , god , chris . neil : you 're right , as usual . i do need some help . i just do n't think you 're the one to give it to me . leslie : okay . forget about what happened between us . forget about devon and hilary and think about whether you want your life confined to a cold , cramped cell . devon : leslie 's right . neil : did i ask for your opinion ? devon : no , you did n't ask for my opinion , but i 'm still gon na give it to you . all right ? i know you do n't think of me as your son anymore , but i am your son , and so is moses . and who 's gon na explain to him why his father 's no longer in his life ? who 's gon na explain to charlie and mattie why their grandpa is gone ? do you really understand that if you get the maximum sentence , you could be put in jail for almost the rest of your life ? is that what you want ? or do you want this woman to fight for you like no one else will ? neil : [ inhales deeply ] okay . i 'm doing it for my children ... not for you . devon : as long as you 're gon na do it . hilary : oh , my gosh . pardon me . i am -- i 'm so sorry . my head is just -- pfft ! -- in the clouds today . winston : no harm done . hilary : well , the least i can do is buy you a cup of coffee . you care to join me ? phyllis : you 've done nothing wrong . please try to remember that . hey ... i 'm gon na give you some time alone , okay ? jack : yeah . phyllis : okay . victor : i 'm being perfectly up front about my intentions for jabot . nikki : so , you 're not trying to steal the company ? victor : let me put it this way ... there will come a day when jack abbott will beg for my help ... and i 'll give it to him ... in exchange for everything he owns . [ next_on ] sage : that bingo that you know from boarding school -- he 's gone , and so is the man that i wanted to help . adam : well , i think we 'd be dynamite together , actually . jack : it 's probably better , though , that you hear it from me . stitch : hear what ? jack : kelly 's dead . stitch : what ?Summarize.[/INST]neil apologizes to christine , but she says she will never forgive him , and he will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law . hilary offers to help by telling the judge that neil was out of his mind because of her . neil wants nothing to do with her . cane asks michael to get him out of his contract , because he was under duress when he signed it . now he wants to be in charge . michael does n't feel comfortable with it , because jill is his sister - in - law . he snaps at cane then apologizes , explaining the radiation makes him cranky . cane is reminded of when lily had cancer . he asks her if he can move back into the bedroom with her . she agrees . meanwhile , lauren tries to convince michael that he will always be the man she loves no matter what the disease does to him . phyllis confronts victor about wanting to buy jabot . victor says it 's for profit , just business . he admits he knows what happened to kelly . she committed suicide . phyllis obtains a picture of kelly , who does appear to be dead . she shows it to jack , and he feels guilty , because he did nothing to stop it .</s> | 16,689 |

you know i did n't kill anyone . i did what i did for jen . lindsay : and for the money . rex : no . that 's not really -- lindsay : do n't even start to begin to try to -- i know you better than anybody . rex : yeah , you do . daniel : there 's nothing new to report , so do n't even ask . lindsay : i actually wanted to ask you something . daniel : lindsay -- the only thing i have to say to you is that you and your daughter had better be prepared for what happens next . lindsay : what 's that supposed to mean ? daniel : this case should have been closed down months ago , and it 's not . my office wo n't make the same mistake again , and i wo n't make the same mistake again . do we understand one another ? margaret : [ as blair ] agh ! you bit me ! todd : you try that again , i 'll do worse . margaret : you drew blood , you devil ! oh , you want to play rough ? well , i can play rough , but that 's enough blood for one night . it 's a good thing you did n't use up all of this when you made your crutches . todd : no , no . margaret : oh , your mouth says `` no , no , `` but your eyes say `` si , si . `` [ margaret screams ] kelly : kevin . kevin : hey , look who 's here , ace . it 's mommy . kelly : what have you done ? kevin : what does it look like i 've done ? i 've brought our son home where he belongs . kelly : but -- kevin : no , there 's no buts , kelly . i 'm his father , all right ? babe chandler and jamie martin are kidnappers . in the eyes of the law , cut and dried . kelly : blair , i 'm sorry , but i really need to talk to kevin alone . do you mind ? blair : yeah , sure . you call me if you need anything , all right ? kelly : ok , you , too . kevin : what , you and blair are best friends now ? kelly : kevin , this is so wrong . he deserves to be with his mother , not here . kevin : look , just listen to me for a second , ok ? i 'm not a fool . i know it 's not over yet . the chandlers are going to come after me with everything they 've got . they 're going to do anything they can to get ace back . i know that . that is why we need to make a united front . kelly : i told you that he was better off where he was . why could n't you just trust me and believe me ? kevin : what , better off with strangers ? look at him . kelly : better off with his mother , with the woman who gave birth to him . he was safe with jamie and babe . now he 's going to be in the middle of a custody battle between the buchanans and the chandlers . kevin : ok , the law is on our side . the birth certificate says -- kelly : it does n't matter what the birth certificate says . kevin , he 's not ours . he never will be . kevin : here . kelly : what ? kevin : take him . kelly : no , i can't . kevin : no , you take him . kelly : no , i -- i ca n't -- kevin : kelly -- kelly , turn around , come here . i want you take him and you hold him close to you . kelly : now , tell me he is n't ours . go ahead . tell me ace is n't ours . daniel 's voice : whoever killed paul cramer is about to find her head on a chopping block . riley : jen ? jen : ok , look , before you get upset -- riley : i was looking for you . jen : yeah , i know , i know . i was with rex . but it 's not what you think . there is nothing happening between rex and me other than confusion on my part . riley : ok , i guess i do n't understand . what are you so confused about , jen ? jen : i just do n't understand why he would risk his freedom to clear my name , especially since i 'm innocent . and , yeah , yeah , i used to be married to the guy . so there 's always going to be a small part of me that cares about him , what happens to him , but i 'm not in love with him . i 'm in love with you . you 've seen the worst in me , and you love me in spite of it . and you 've seen the best in me , too . i would take that love over rex 's any day . i should have been honest with you . i should have told you i went to see rex . i should n't have lied to you . riley : then why did you lie to me , jen ? when you lie to me about little things , it makes me wonder if you 're hiding something else , something bigger . mr. emerson : i 'm late for a bail hearing . i 'll check in with you later . rex : that 's it ? mr. emerson : nothing more i can do right now . rex : but you must have some idea of what 's going on . am i being released , or what ? mr. emerson : colson obviously has an ax to grind with you . and you 're not helping things by being such a smart - ass . rex : it 's my nature . what can i tell you ? mr. emerson : hang in there , kid . i 'll be back . blair : look , daniel , i was told -- daniel : blair , i really do n't have time . blair : look , i know that bo is out of town , but i was hoping that maybe somebody else from the police department heard something about todd or margaret cochran since i was here last . daniel : which was n't that long go , and , no , there 's nothing new to report . blair : look , i know nora probably filled you in , and she was actually very helpful to me , but if -- daniel : you know , blair , she 's not here right now , and i 'm extremely busy , so -- blair : well , is there anyone that can help me ? if -- daniel : now , now , look , you 're going to have to wait for bo to get back from louisiana or for nora to get here in the morning , but there 's nothing more that we can do for you tonight , ok ? i 'm -- i 'm sorry . blair : yeah , i bet you are . i 'll just try this . hey , george . it 's blair cramer . has tomorrow 's edition gone to press yet ? oh , great , it has n't ? no , no , no , hold it off because there 's something i still need to do , ok ? margaret : [ as blair ] whoo - hoo - hoo - hoo ! oh , this is better than the rodeo ! ride him , cowgirl ! that 's downright rude ! am i going to have to teach you some manners ? oh , did that hurt ? ho - ho ! [ normal voice ] well , guess what -- you are going to go through hell on earth right here on this bed . kelly : kevin , where is babe chandler right now ? kevin : she 's in f . b.i . custody , charged with kidnapping . kelly : oh , god , that 's terrible . kevin : yes , it is . i know , ok ? when i first went to new orleans , all i could think about was revenge . i just wanted to hurt the people who had hurt us , who had taken ace . then , you know , i just started thinking about what you said , and i did it . i watched babe , i watched her with ace , and you were right . she loves him . kelly : how could you take him away from her ? kevin : well , because . we were raising him in a loving and happy family . we were n't drugging each other , ok ? we were n't stealing babies and running off like fugitives . but in our worst moments , we never did what j.r. and babe did to each other , not even close . and you know why ? because he came first for us . now , that 's what mattered . we wanted the best for him . kelly : kevin , i -- kevin : look , i know i have a fight ahead of me , ok ? but in the end , i 'm going to win . i am . there 's not a judge alive who 'd want a child to grow up in a viper 's nest like the chandlers ' mansion . kelly : you do n't know what you 're in for . i 've been there , all right ? if you lose custody -- kevin : i 'm not going to lose . i just told you . kelly : kevin , when the judge gives ace back to his rightful parents -- that kind of pain is like nothing you 'll ever go through . i do n't know why you 'd want to put yourself through that . i ca n't put myself through it . i can't . kevin : what ? kelly : come on , why do n't we lay down for a little bit , ok ? kevin : wait a minute . hey , what are you doing ? kelly : i am not going to let my feelings cloud my better judgment . i 'm not going to let it make me do something i know is wrong . kevin : oh , wait a minute . where are you going ? kelly : i 'm going to the f . b.i . , i 'm going to the police , i 'm going to whoever will listen to me . i have worked too hard to make this right to let it go wrong again . daniel : thank you . rex : what 's going on ? why ca n't i leave ? daniel : do i have to explain it to you again ? rex : look , mr . colson , you and i both know that i may be unethical , immoral , materialistic , but i 'm no murderer . so what 's the story ? am i going to be sent back down to the holding cell , or are you going to do the honorable thing and set me free ? daniel : get his things and get him out of here . rex : you 're kidding ? you 're not kidding ? daniel : just get the hell out of my sight . rex : yes , sir . i wo n't be back . you can count on that . never again . that 's a promise . and i always keep my promises . jen : so now i 'm a liar ? is that what you 're saying ? riley : jen , no ! jen : just because i did n't tell you that i went to see rex that night , now i lie about everything ? riley : hello , you are making too much out of this ! no , you 're not . i am , and i 'm sorry . look , i do n't like that you lied to me about going to see rex , all right ? i do n't like the guy . i do n't like the way he looks at you , like you have some sort of connection still . look , he came in here , he said he was leaving town , i was like , `` finally , he 's out of our lives . `` and then he gets arrested for murder . jen : rex did not kill anybody . riley : how do you know that ? jen : i just do , ok ? can we just please not talk about this ? riley : look , hey , rex and i do have one thing in common . we would do anything to protect you . anything . lindsay : we will protect you , jen . do n't you worry . daniel colson better stay the hell away from you . evangeline : oh , that was just a wonderful surprise . thanks for dreaming that up . john : you 're welcome . you ca n't say i do n't take you to the fancy places . evangeline : you know what i mean . with all the craziness that 's been going on around us lately , it 's just so nice to talk about normal things , you know ?

kevin : you know what i 'm talking about -- ace back in our arms , the way it used to be , remember ? kelly : there are a lot of things that are n't the way they used to be , kevin . kevin : i got to get him to bed . little guy 's had a tough day . come on . kelly : i wo n't be here when you get back . i ca n't see you with our -- with ace . it 's just too much . kevin : listen to me . do n't you even think about helping babe . i mean it . this is the way it should be , kelly . this is right . blair : oh , what took you so long , george ? george : sorry . there was a lot of traffic . blair : yeah , i know . so what you got ? george : nothing flashy . maybe if i had more time -- blair : just show it to me . george : tomorrow 's front page . blair : oh , perfect . george : we 're just asking for a libel suit -- blair : look , i do n't care if i lose `` the sun . `` i do n't care if i lose the shirt on my back . if this helps me find todd , that 's all that matters . margaret : i have tried to be patient . i have said nothing when you have droned on and on about blair and what 's important in life and all that blah , blah , blah ! well , the time for blah , blah , blah is over ! i am not going to save your life only to have you throw it back in my face ! listen , either you make a baby with me right now , or i 'm going to choke the living life out of you ! and that 's no bluff , sugar .

where did he go ? lindsay : he did n't say , but i think we can both make a pretty good guess about that . jen : rex . he figured out that that 's where i went , and now he went to -- oh , my god , i 've got to go . i 've got to go -- lindsay : no , no , no , wait . look , he 's not angry . he 's just confused . jen : nothing is going on between rex and me . lindsay : i know that . jen : but i ca n't just abandon the guy , can i , not when the only reason that he 's in jail is to try to protect me . i mean , i ca n't just say `` whatever `` and let the guy rot in prison . lindsay : nobody 's asking you to do that . jen : riley is . he did n't come out and say it , but -- all i have to do is think about rex and riley goes nuts . lindsay : ok . then you have to go to riley immediately and you need to tell him that the only reason that you 're seeing rex is out of guilt and because you feel responsible for the situation that he 's in . you do n't want to blow it . do n't blow a good thing . you go make riley understand that immediately . mr. emerson : tell me again why my client is still in jail . daniel : we 're still reviewing the evidence . mr. emerson : a letter was found in my client 's apartment proving that he was paid off to hide that gun . daniel : and i 'm still not buying that story . mr. emerson : and on top of that , my sources inform me that a witness has come forward implicating a pine valley resident . daniel : that witness is about as credible as a story in `` the sun . `` now , if commissioner buchanan wants to waste his time with david hayward , that 's up to him . rex : ok , so what do i got to do to get sprung , huh ? sit ? stay ? beg ? mr. emerson : keep your mouth shut , rex . daniel : that would be a good start . mr. emerson : can you give me and my client a moment , please ? daniel : fine with me . officer , would you please escort mr . balsom here and his attorney to the interrogation room . officer : sure . let 's go . daniel : oh , hey , hey , hey ! riley , riley , slow up , son . riley : i need to see rex . daniel : well , he 's talking to his lawyer . you ca n't see him right now . riley : yeah , well , you know , i 'll wait . daniel : listen , riley , jen was here . riley : yeah , i figured that out . daniel : and from what i could see , balsom really did a number on her . riley : what does that mean ? daniel : look , son , you ca n't be naive . the guy 's just not letting go , and jen is obviously still attracted to him -- god only knows why . riley : dad , be honest with me . what is going to happen to rex ? daniel : well , i 'm sorry to say that he 's going to be released sooner rather than later . riley : well , what about his tampering with evidence ? daniel : you know , it 's a felony , but it 's not first - degree murder . riley : and that means what ? daniel : riley , this department has arrested four people for murder and had to let them go . and the next person with the slightest amount of evidence against her is going to be hit with everything we 've got . riley : `` her `` ? why did you say `` her `` ? daniel : there are n't many suspects left on the board , riley . riley : you mean jen , do n't you ? do n't you ? daniel : son , the state needs to put this case to rest . we ca n't afford another maybe . now , whoever killed paul cramer is going to find her head on a chopping block . john : evangeline williamson , attorney at law . evangeline : yes ? john : anybody ever tell you that 's kind of a formidable name ? it 's almost like your parents knew you were going to be this force of nature when they named you . evangeline : it was my great - grandmother 's name . i never met her , but she was a pretty amazing woman . she owned her own business , which was a very big deal back in the day for a black woman . john : hmm , so it 's kind of an honor that you have her name . evangeline : are you kidding ?

[ scene_break ] spinelli : paso doble ! nadine : and you learned those moves on `` dancing with the stars `` ? spinelli : the jackal is keenly aware that his matador - like movements require a little more finesse and fluidity , which he will acquire through much practice before the black - and - white ball . nadine : just do n't hurt yourself . spinelli : oh , uh , not to worry . the jackal will prove to be a worthy escort for the seemingly sweet one .

[ scene_break ] skye : when the d.a . summons me to his office , i can assume it 's about one thing -- the property that i inherited from lorenzo . so tell me , have you had any offers ? ric : actually , i was hoping that you had . skye : not a word . but i can sense the vultures are circling . ric : no word from sonny ? skye : no . do you expect me to hear from him ? ric : this is sonny 's chance to monopolize the waterfront . if he does n't buy out those piers , i 'm pretty sure that his competition will . skye : you look concerned , ric . what are n't you telling me ? ric : sit . sonny dropped out of sight shortly after he uncovered a carefully guarded secret . skye : what kind of secret ? ric : he -- he dropped in uninvited at anthony zacchara 's crimson pointe estate . it turns out it 's nothing more than a well - appointed padded cell -- zacchara is certifiably insane . skye : so who 's running his mob empire ? ric : ha . the same person who has kept anthony zacchara 's condition a secret for all these years . his loyal and trusted attorney -- my father . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : jason told me you 've known about jake for quite a while and that you 've decided to keep it a secret . lulu : i did n't want to hurt lucky . elizabeth : and that 's exactly why i did n't tell him the truth in the first place . lulu : you do n't owe me any explanations . elizabeth : i know , but i want you to understand how i felt . lulu : okay . elizabeth : you know lucky was struggling to overcome his addiction to pills . and when i told him about the baby , he was -- god , he was so excited about becoming a father . it gave him the incentive to stick with the program and get clean . but when i found out jason was the father , i could n't pull the rug out from under lucky . lulu : but you decided to tell jason . elizabeth : not until we were trapped in an elevator -- i did n't think we would make it out alive . it was very emotional for jason . he would love to be a part of jake 's life , but his work is far too dangerous for a child . lulu : you asked him to step aside , which he agreed . elizabeth : lying to your brother has torn me apart . lulu : hmm . when you guys announced your engagement -- elizabeth : i expected you to be happy for us . i mean , you 've always treated me like family , then all of a sudden you were pulling apart and just acting almost hostile . lulu : well , i -- i was furious . i thought that you were the world 's biggest hypocrite . elizabeth : believe me , i felt the same . lulu : but you stuck by your decision . elizabeth : yes . and i questioned it every day . i still do . but in my defense , all i can say is i made the best choice i could at the time . i never set out to hurt lucky or to take advantage of him . lulu : well , i know that now . elizabeth : lucky and i tried our best . sometimes it 's not enough . lulu : are you happier now ? elizabeth : i do n't know . it 's too soon to say , really . i mean , i 'm just kind of in survival mode right now , trying to get settled into the new home and help the kids with the adjustment . lulu : lucky 's off dating sam . elizabeth : sam is a lying tramp . one of these days , i 'm going to call her on all her garbage and set the record straight . lulu : something tells me this is more than just jealousy . elizabeth : if lucky knew everything i knew about sam , he would n't go within 10 feet of her . lulu : care to share ? elizabeth : no . he wants to be with her . far be it for me to interfere , right ? lulu : why is it that people do n't see that someone 's bad for them until it 's too late ? elizabeth : i do n't know . do n't ask me , i 'm hardly the expert on relationships . lulu : yeah , but like you said , you tried your best . and you 're a wonderful mother . elizabeth : thank you . that means a lot to me that you think so . lulu : hmm .

[ logan chuckles ] logan : right . look , we 've got that in common , okay ? he left my mother when she was pregnant , then never so much as even bothered to send a post card . now he 's pulled a 180 , telling me he wants to make up for lost time . i do n't trust the guy as far as i can throw him . luke : well . you 're not entirely stupid . logan : look , scott thought he was doing me a favor when he made that deal with lulu . if i had known about that , i would 've told him where he could stick it . luke : yeah , but you did n't , did you ? logan : well -- luke : and it all turned out pretty well for you , did n't it ? logan : look , my father opened the door , but lulu chose to walk through it , and i owe him for that -- especially when everybody in this town keeps telling the girl to stay away from me , including you . luke : well , you know , could it be -- is it possible that just maybe -- everybody 's right , she should stay away from you ?

[ scene_break ] jax : what makes you so sure that nikolas did n't kill leticia ? carly : because nikolas is n't capable of murder . jax : in his condition , he 's capable of anything . he blacks out , and then he ca n't remember what he 's done . carly : i was there ; i know what it 's like . when nikolas came after me , i knew he was n't going to actually hurt me . jax : because max jumped on him ! carly : i was talking nikolas down before max got there . jax : you know what , carly ? you 're fooling yourself , and you 're forgetting something . nikolas attacked jerry and put a knife through his ribs . carly : jerry ? jax : yes . carly : jerry , who gets a twisted char out of provoking nikolas , and you know that 's what he did that night . jax : you 're just making excuses . carly : i am not making excuses . jax : yes , you are . carly : no , i 'm not . i am going to be fine at the ball ; you do n't have to worry about me . jax : of course i worry about you . you 're my wife , i love you . carly : i love you , too . but , look , emily is giving this ball with nikolas . if she thought something bad was going to happen , do n't you think she would postpone it ? jax : you know , maybe the doctors have n't diagnosed him yet . carly : and maybe they 're afraid they do n't have much time ft -- even more of a reason for me to go . jax : all right , fine . i give in . you should go to the ball . carly : thank you . jax : but not alone . carly : we 've been through that , okay ? jason flat out said no , you 're going to be in paris , so i have no one to go with . jax : i 'm not going to be in paris . if you 're so determined to go to this ball , i 'm going to cancel my meetings , okay ? we will go to the black - and - white ball together .

victor : well , the fire and the computer virus , you know , did some damage , but it 's gon na take a hell of a lot more to bring down newman enterprises . you bet . and the contracts are still binding . you heard it from the horse 's mouth , all right ? yep . thank you . victoria : working the phones ? victor : nervous nellies , for heaven 's sake . nervous vendors . they are worried that the contracts are no longer any good . they do n't realize that newman enterprises will be stronger after this damn paragon virus disaster than ever before . victoria : it is good to see you so optimistic . victor : by the way , i was about to send you and everyone else in the executive committee an e - mail saying that we 're gon na vacate the jabot building , all right ? we have already . victoria : when ? victor : last night . i ca n't stand being around people who wanted to destroy all of us . victoria : well , in that case , you better come with me , dad . i , um , i have a little surprise for you . victor : what ? jack : phyllis ! ashley : no , it 's just me . sorry to disappoint you . jack : hey , sis . ashley : hey , yourself . welcome back . jack : sorry . i should have given you a better welcome . i just flew in from geneva , went straight to the house . phyllis is n't there . i come to the building and find out victor left in the middle of the night . ashley : was n't that so gracious of him ? jack : the kicker is that ian ward got captured . does n't take long to do the math there . obviously this whole trip for me was a setup . phyllis and billy sent me to switzerland on a bogus tip so that i 'd be out of the way . phyllis decided she was going to set herself up as bait . she knew i would n't go along with that . ashley : gets much worse from there , jack . billy : [ snoring ] oh , vicki , i knew you 'd forgive me . phyllis : oh , no , billy , damn it ! what have you done to yourself ? mariah : you have got to be kidding . i will absolutely take you up on that offer . dylan : well , godmothers get free coffee for life . mariah : what ? ! dylan : yes . mariah : why did nobody tell me about this godmother scam ? dylan : [ chuckles ] so , what 's going on ? you got the morning off ? mariah : uh , no , not really . i should be at the underground setting up . dylan : so , why are n't you ? mariah : i 've been kind of avoiding the place lately . sage 's mood swings . dylan : yeah . you got to cut her a break . mariah : what i want to do is break her arm . look , i know . i know that she is going through a hard time . but so is nick , and he 's not having meltdowns all over the place . dylan : [ sighs ] yeah . you know , when -- when sage asked to hold sully right before the christening , sharon and i were kind of holding our breath . it was -- it was a little tense . but we got through it . just made us realize how lucky we are and , you know , it could have been us . mariah : you and sharon ca n't feel guilty over having a healthy baby to love . dr. anderson : you 're so right about that . guilt is a waste of time and energy . then again , i felt badly for missing the ceremony , so i brought a little something for dylan and sharon 's baby . chelsea : connor really wanted to wish his daddy good luck on his first day at the office . adam : is he still asleep ? chelsea : yeah . adam : yeah ? chelsea : it took forever to get him down last night . i think he knows we have a house guest . adam : well , just let him sleep . let sage sleep , for that matter . she needs her rest . chelsea : yeah . i was really hoping we could have a few more days together before you start serving your sentence . adam : with my dad as the jailer ? are you serious ? chelsea : kind of feels like you 've traded one prison for another . adam : well , you know , a deal 's a deal . newman needs me . i 'm the right man for the job . but i will be playing by my own set of rules . chelsea : okay . does victor know that ? adam : well ... [ doorbell rings ] adam : i 'll get it . oh . yeah , are we carpooling to work or some -- i forgot , you -- you do n't work at newman anymore , do you ? nick : sage texted me , said she was staying here . i want to see her . adam : oh . come on in . here 's the thing , nick . um ... i ca n't let you see her . nick : i do n't remember needing permission from you to speak with my wife . adam : she needed a timeout , nick . nick : from me ? adam : yeah . it 's hard enough she 's dealing with the loss of a child . she does n't need to deal with failing her husband . chelsea : nick , we 're just trying to give her a safe place to rest . nick : [ sighs ] look , i know you mean well , but how are things supposed to get better between us if she 's avoiding me ? sage : okay . you want to talk , nick ? let 's talk . do you still love me ? dylan : well , thank you . that 's very nice of you . i 'll take it home and let sully help open it . dr. anderson : i hope he enjoys it . dylan : i 'm sure he will . but honestly , you 've given our family the greatest gift . you took great care of sharon , and you got her back to a really good place . dr. anderson : you know , i 'd love to get an update on how you all are doing . dylan : sure . come on . kevin : so , you gon na stare off into space all day , or what ? mariah : [ chuckling ] oh , my god . you 're alive . [ chuckles ] kevin : hi . mariah : hi ! i only texted you about a zillion times . i was starting to wonder if you were coming back at all . do they not have cell service in zurich ? kevin : geneva . but it 's nice to know you missed me . mariah : well , it 's not that . see , i did n't know if you were coming back at all , so i sold all your stuff . but i promise i 'll let you in on half . kevin : well , that seems fair . mariah : truth ? kevin : mm - hmm . mariah : i did kind of miss you . that 's only because there was so much craziness going on here . i kind of needed somebody to help me sort it out . kevin : well , you know i 'm a master of sorting things out . mariah : so , how was switzerland ? did you end up finding the hacker that created paragon ? kevin : no . it was one dead end after another . mariah : i 'm sorry . bummer . kevin : yeah . and the worst part was realizing that billy engineered the entire thing . jack thinks he wanted to get us out of the way for a bit . mariah : what ? ! so -- so there 's no hacker guy ? kevin : oh , there 's a hacker , only it 's not a guy . and she 's pretty damn amazing . victor : what is this ? are you serious ? my goodness . victoria : i 've been driving the crew day and night . the structural engineer says that the building is sound , but there 's still a few cosmetic things that need to be done , and we 're still a few weeks out from opening , but command central could be ready pretty soon . um , family photos will be here in a little while , and i even stocked the bar with your favorite tequila . victor : how do i thank you , my sweetheart ? this means a lot to me , okay ? victoria : i know it does . victor : whoa . victoria : pretty soon , it 'll be as good as new . victor : yeah . victoria : yep . victor : well , i guess this was just canvas and oil , was n't it ? that could n't survive a fire . victoria : i think it would take more than a few minor setbacks ... to destroy this . just like you . phyllis : i wake up to the news that you have been arrested for drunk driving . billy : [ sighs ] phyllis : made for a fantastic morning . billy : well , i 'm glad i could be there for you . how 'd you find me ? phyllis : i did n't know . i figured you 'd be here . what in the hell were you thinking ? billy : you know , you are partly to blame for this . phyllis : excuse me ? how am i responsible for your dui ? billy : oh , well , you 're the one who pushed me to go to that christening , which [ chuckles ] made vicki really , really happy . and then i got into it with lurch , who -- who , by the way , now knows for a fact that you and i resurrected paragon , so there 's that . and , uh , yeah . yeah , that 's for the , uh , pep talk . i 'm really glad i listened , phyllis . phyllis : vicki did n't give you any extra points for trying ? billy : [ chuckles ] no . no . no . she , um , practically commanded me to leave and i had no shot with her . and then , uh , victor piled on . i went to the bar and ashley would n't let up , so ... phyllis : you got plastered , got in your car , and wound up in jail . let me guess -- vicki wo n't let you anywhere near the kids ? billy : huh . that -- that 's -- that 's pretty impressive . you know , um , maybe you could help me out with my football picks . i 'm a little rusty on my stats . phyllis : no . no . billy : [ sighs ] phyllis : i am not gon na let you do this . i am not gon na let you self - destruct again . billy : you 're not ? phyllis : no . victor got what he had coming to him , and i would gladly do it again . but i need you to listen up to me right now . jack is home , which means we have to face him and take the heat , so you need to get in the shower , sober up , and change into something that does n't smell like a distillery . billy : you are on your own , sweets , because i 'm not gon na sit around and listen to jack give me another lecture on how i screwed up again . jack : how could billy not realize that reviving paragon could hurt us , too ? ashley : because the damage to jabot would be minor , unlike what was being inflicted upon newman . for his plan to work , it had to look like jabot was being under attack , too . jack : of all the harebrained moves ... why would he do this ? ashley : during the fire , when victor urged adam to disappear , i think something in billy snapped . so they came up with this plan . they knew you would n't agree with it , so they sent you out of town . jack : you keep saying `` they . `` phyllis and billy ? they 've been working together all this time ? ashley : yes . and they 've been keeping it from everybody , including me . look , i can somewhat understand billy 's motivation because it was personal , you know , because of delia , but i do n't understand phyllis . why would she antagonize victor when she knew that you would get hurt in the process ? jack : did you ask her ? ashley : absolutely . she said he ruined her honeymoon . now , what the hell does that mean ? jack : i guess you have to know everything . ashley : about what ? jack : because of victor , phyllis spent our honeymoon in the arms of a ruthless psychopath . nick : of course , i still love you . sage , i do not want to have this conversation here . please come home with me . sage : nick , how could you possibly love me after everything that 's happened ? nick : i do n't know what more i can say or do to make you realize we both lost a child . sage : i know that . but why is it pulling us apart ? nick : because you 're turning to other people . you should be turning to ... sage : i know . i should be turning to you , nick , and i 've tried . you know i 've tried . but there 's this thing in between us . i do n't know what it is . i do n't know why ! nick : sage ... sage : nick , you say all the right things . but we 're just not connecting . we can not come together over this . i do n't know ! nick : when cassie died , i turned my back on sharon . she needed me , and i left her to fend for herself . i felt like i could n't ... i could n't handle it . i needed to get away . i was wrong . i did the worst thing you could do . instead of turning to my wife , i turned to phyllis . and i see you doing the same thing . you 're creating all this distance between us , not just physically but emotionally . you 're making all these ridiculous claims about how i feel ? sage : so this is all my fault , then ? nick : do not twist my words . you know i 'm not saying that . sage : nick , when you do this to me , i feel backed into a corner , and we 're not really acknowledging what 's going on ! chelsea : sage , why do n't -- why do n't we go into the kitchen ? nick : chelsea . adam : hey , um ... i 'm sorry . i - i did n't -- [ clears throat ] i did n't mean to get in between you two by offering her a place to stay . nick : well , that 's you , right ? always the good samaritan . adam : nick , chelsea and i want to help you , okay ? we want to help you and sage find your way back together , so ... i 'm willing to do anything . what do you want me to do ? nick : can you bring back my son ? ! adam : your son . dr. anderson : so you 're not seeing any signs of depression ? dylan : no , no . she 's great . sharon 's like a new woman , or maybe like the woman she was before -- dr. anderson : before she went off her meds . dylan : exactly . dr. anderson : but it really started long before that , did n't it ? her on - again , off - again relationship with nick . it 's really taken a toll on sharon 's emotional wellbeing . dylan : yeah , i mean , you know , i do n't blame nick . you know , people change , relationships do n't always go the way we want them to . dr. anderson : true . although i - i do find it telling that sage is having similar issues to what nick experienced years ago . has he discussed that with you ? dylan : uh , that would be between my brother and i , would n't it ? dr. anderson : i - i appreciate you wanting to keep his confidence . but nick has confided in me , as well . you know , it 's not his fault that sage is having a hard time accepting that sharon has a healthy baby while she has to mourn for her son . dylan : yeah , well , look , we want sage to be a part of sully 's life , but right now ... dr. anderson : she ca n't handle it . that 's why , as harsh as this sounds , you and sharon have to keep your baby away from her . victoria : oh , that 's perfect . so , do you think that you can work in a little bit of chaos ? victor : oh , sweetheart , i thrive on that . will you join me ? victoria : i would love to . victor : oh , yeah ? victoria : mm - hmm . what 's the first order of business ? gon na call the police and have billy arrested ? victor : [ sighs ] he deserves it , do n't you think ? victoria : [ sighs ] after delia died , i think something broke in him . i think he 's paying for that . victor : ah . victoria : i told him that we 're through , dad . i kicked him out of the house . and if he does n't get his head on straight , i will go to court and have his visitation reduced . do n't you think that 's punishment enough ? victor : he conspired to bring all of us down to destroy me and my company . anyway , it 's a start . victoria : [ sighs ] he still has to face jack and the rest of his family . victor : oh , once he does , i 'm sure they 're gon na turn their back on him and he 'll be -- he 'll be finished . victoria : and that will be the end of it for you . victor : you know , there 's an old , very wise saying . `` when you try to kill a king , you better not miss . `` victoria : [ sighs ] well , i guess that 's my answer . victor : the only question now is how do we retaliate ? adam : we strike back as hard as possible . victor : that 's a good start . ashley : so when phyllis got back from st. barts , she thought this marco creep was you ? jack : and victor allowed her to believe it . and you and billy and everyone else . it was n't till i clawed my way back here that i could tell phyllis about it . ashley : jack , why the hell did n't you tell me sooner ? i mean , it would explain a lot . that man 's behavior was disgusting and erratic and -- jack : believe me , i wanted to tell you . i knew you did n't trust me , but i could n't address it because i had this pact with victor . ashley : my god , i 'm so happy you made it out of that whole thing okay . and the fact that you and phyllis are still intact as a couple is nothing short of a miracle . i mean , really . jack : yes and no . i honestly thought phyllis was over the need to make victor pay for the whole marco thing . obviously i was wrong about that . phyllis : there he is . [ chuckles ] thank god you 're home . [ sighs ] jack : good to see you , too , babe . ashley : i have a meeting down the hall . call me if you need backup . jack : thank you , sis . phyllis : well , very , very lonely without you here . how was geneva ? did you find out anything ? jack : you know i did n't find out anything . you know this whole trip was a setup to get me out of the way so that you and billy could sic paragon on victor again . phyllis : and may i say it was ever so glorious . jack : what did you hope to accomplish ? i mean , besides hurting a lot of people ? phyllis : have you forgotten what he did to us , jack ? jack : i have n't forgotten a thing . it does n't justify what you -- phyllis : the hell it does n't . i 'm gon na call this for what it is . victor may have smirked for kelly tormenting you or putting a stranger with your face in our bed , but i had the ultimate pleasure of seeing his life 's work ruined . billy and i mutilated newman enterprises , and what 's more , we enjoyed it . it made us feel like some tiny fraction of wrong that had been done to us was finally avenged . and i know what you 're wondering . you 're wondering , `` was it worth it , phyllis ? `` and the answer is absolutely yes . jack : i have n't seen this side of you for years . phyllis : it 's about time , do n't you think ? jack : angry and vengeful and -- we will talk about this later . right now , i 'm gon na deal with my brother . phyllis : you 're not gon na find billy in his office . victoria kicked him to the curb , and he imploded . jack : how ? phyllis : dui . jack : oh , god . phyllis : after he got out of night court , he went on a bender and finally passed out at the club . i tried to help him , but he is a total mess . maybe you can reach him . billy : give me a cup of coffee , um ... hey , you 're the guy from last night , right ? the guy who did n't call me a cab ? look , do me a favor . next time you see me in here getting drunk and i say i can drive , call me a cab . coffee . black . hot . you know what ? um ... on second thought ... forget the coffee . give me a , uh , give me a bloody mary . bloodier , the better . and this time ... hold on to those . victoria : you want to sue jabot ? adam : well , you know , not just jabot . i 'm talking about the officers , the directors . i figure anybody on the letterhead is fair game at this point . victor : that includes billy boy . adam : mm - hmm . victoria : and that also includes jack . adam : that also includes ashley . victor : mm - hmm . adam : let 's face it . we all have someone over there that we would rather not be the target of this , but we do n't have the luxury of looking at it that way . this is not just business . this is survival of the fittest . now , that -- that company , they launched that virus against us , and we were already weak . now their reputation deserves to suffer accordingly . we 'll be able to regain some of our lost profits . we 'll be hurting them in the process . it 's a win / win . that combined with the santori money we were able to secure should be enough to put us back on top . what do you think ? victor : i like the way you think , adam . simple and effective . victoria : if we 're gon na retaliate , at least it 's fair and legal . adam : yep . it 's unanimous ? victor : so , when do we start ? adam : well , victoria , with your help , i think we can start immediately . victor : remember what damage that family tried to inflict upon us , okay ? so , i 'll leave the two of you alone . you decide when to do what . i need to go somewhere . mariah : so , tell me about this mystery woman you met in switzerland . is she involved with paragon ? kevin : i ca n't talk about it . mariah : you ... [ chuckling ] you ca n't talk about it ? shut up . why not ? [ cell phone chimes ] kevin : oh , my god , it 's her . i have to get back to her . in private . dylan : keeping sage away from sully seems kind of mean , especially if it could help her with her loss . dr. anderson : that 's just it . being around your newborn will only reinforce that loss . for sage 's own sake , she should n't be anywhere near that baby . nick : since when are you my wife 's doctor ? go back to fairview and stay there . dylan : nick , dr. anderson 's just trying to -- trying to help . nick : yeah , well , everyone 's trying to help . and everyone 's just making it worse . dylan : w - what do you mean ? nick : sage took off last night , and adam and chelsea took her in because she said she ca n't be around me right now . now dr. know - it - all here says sage ca n't even be around her nephew ? what the hell ? ! where do you get off ? ! mariah : hey . is everything okay ? nick : i guess i 'm the one who should n't be around people right now . dylan : nick . dr. anderson : no , let -- let me . let me . nick . look , if -- if i came across as a know - it - all , i owe you an apology . nick : great . we 're even . dr. anderson : your brother 's handing out free coffee . maybe we should start there . nick : start what ? dr. anderson : you seem like you need to vent . nick : [ sighs ] you know what ? sure . let 's give it a shot , but do n't say i did n't warn you . i do n't even know your first name . dr. anderson : sandy . nick : sandy . fine . i 'll get us some coffee . adam : well , victor wants this started like yesterday , so let 's earn those retainers and get this legal ball rolling , okay ? all right . what 's the matter ? you having second thoughts about suing billy boy ? victoria : do you really think i want to see the father of my children suffer ? billy did bring this on himself , i guess . adam : that 's right . he did . so what 's with the look ? victoria : you . i just do n't know what to think . it 's like a whole , new side of adam . you want to bring in the lawyers and go to court instead of something more juicy and vengeful . adam : well , it 's tempting . i 'm not gon na lie to you . but our father expects us to rebuild our brand here , you know , not just settle for simple vengeance . that 's gon na take money . victoria : you know , i never thought i would say this , but i agree with dad . letting you go to prison would have been a big waste . adam : well , i owe him , you know . the least i can do is reward his faith in me . victoria : ah . there 's the adam that i know . the one that thinks he can snow me and get away with it . phyllis : thought i might find you here . i was pretty sure you did n't have a meeting down the hall . ashley : i thought you and jack needed a little time alone . phyllis : we did . thank you . he just left to go find billy . ashley : well , it should n't be too hard to find him . just got to follow the path of destruction . leads right to the end of the bar . phyllis : you know this is n't all billy 's fault . ashley : i do know that . and if you 're here to explain exactly why you got involved -- phyllis : ashley , i may give the impression that i do n't give a damn what people think about me , and for 99.9 % of the population , that is true . but i have immense respect for you . ashley : well , thank you very much . what i was about to say , phyllis , is if you were here to explain , you do n't have to , because jack did . he told me everything that victor did , i mean , everything about marco , and i just ... i 'm so sorry . i mean , i 've always understood billy 's rage towards victor , but now i understand yours , too , and i just wish that you trusted me to talk to me about it . phyllis : i wanted to tell you . i mean , carrying that around with me and knowing that i had been fooled for so many months ? ashley : at least you had jack , right ? i mean , he was a victim , too . phyllis : and you would think that 's a bond , but it was n't . if anything , it has made me feel more like billy . filled with the rage that just wo n't go anywhere . jack can find constructive ways to deal with it , but i am not jack . and joining forces with billy to bring victor down , that made me feel like i was doing something . i felt empowered . ashley : okay . but what about billy ? i mean , do you think it made his life better or -- victor : i understand your brother jack is back from europe . is he around ? dr. anderson : ah . thanks . nick : sure . dr. anderson : it 's nice of dylan to hand out free coffee . nick : yeah . it is . i did n't even think of handing out anything when noah was born . he was so tiny . he was fighting for his life . dr. anderson : like christian . well , now noah 's a healthy young man . summer and faith are both thriving . nick : now sage ca n't have kids anymore . it does n't make my loss any less . dr. anderson : no . but it does make it different . nick : what are you saying ? that -- that sage is better off with her ex and avoiding me right now ? i mean , is that your professional opinion ? dr. anderson : speaking as sandy , not dr. anderson , sage is n't the only one who needs to heal . so do you . so , yes , i think spending some time apart might be good for both of you . kevin : natalie , you are a genius . i really think you 're on to something here . and if you 're right about this , it 's gon na be huge . ashley : jack 's not here . and it would have been really nice if you checked in with reception before barging in . what can i do for you ? victor : nothing , ashley . so , how was the homecoming ? was jack very happy to see you ? ashley : are you here on business ? because i can answer your questions . i am in charge here . victor : for now you are . considering the enormous damage done to newman enterprises by two of your executives , it 's just a question of time before they oust you . ashley : you know what ? why do n't you get out of here or i 'm gon na have security oust you . phyllis : i know exactly why you 're here . you want billy indicted , do n't you ? victor : interesting theory . i have something better in mind for jabot . ashley : how dare you ? you come in here and you make all these threats . victor : there are no threats , okay ? i 'm giving you fair warning , which is far more than you deserve . chelsea : you know , the holidays , they really stir up a lot of emotions in people , even if you 're okay . sage : which i 'm not . you know , this would have been my son 's first christmas . it 's hard . [ sighs ] just walking down the street 's an ordeal , you know ? seeing all the bright lights and the happy people . [ scoffs ] but i still really want to help you with your decorations . [ chuckles ] chelsea : well , of course . you 're welcome to stay here until you feel strong enough to go home . sage : home . [ scoffs ] where 's home , huh ? practically shut the door in nick 's face . chelsea : he 'll be back . sage : i do n't know . he 's a little too nice to admit this , but nick 's probably better off without me . chelsea : trust me . he 's a newman . he 's not that nice . besides , sage , he loves you . sage : yeah , it 's not the right kind of love . chelsea : is there really such a thing ? sage : yeah . when nick and i first met , we had this ... attraction to each other , this magnetic pull that we could n't fight . and now when he looks at me , i just see his pity . and the more he tells me that he loves me , the more i feel like it 's just a big lie . chelsea : hmm . well , feelings are n't facts . an addict told me that once . made a lot of sense to me . sage : i mean , maybe if we had another child ... chelsea : sage , a baby is not a relationship cure . you know that . sage : [ sighs ] chelsea , i 've seen what a baby can do . when adam fought his way back from that car wreck , it was n't solely out of love for you . it was because he so desperately wanted to be connor 's father again . the two were inseparable . you were family , and that was the most important thing . and that 's why , out of all the lies he 's told you and all the pain he 's caused you , you forgave him and you took him back . chelsea : sometimes i , um , sometimes i forget how connected you are to adam . adam : i made a deal with my father , victoria . it 's not a big secret . in exchange for him getting me out of prison , i agreed to help him rebuild newman . i 'm gon na lend my expertise . why is that so terrible ? victoria : it just depends on who you ask . adam : okay , well , if you 're talking about nick , i know that means sort of pushing him away , but his heart was never in this company anyway . and if you 're worried about your role being reduced , i can assure you -- victoria : oh , no , no , no . i 'm not worried about that at all . adam : excellent . then we can make our father proud together . victoria : congratulations . adam : [ sighs ] victoria : your first day on the job and you 're already talking the talk . i 'm sure you 're not playing the loyal son just because dad kept you out of prison . i 'm sure he 's holding something over your head . adam : victoria , in order for this to work , you 're gon na have to trust me , okay ? victoria : some things may have changed , like your face . but there 's one thing that will never change . i will never trust you . billy : hey . hey , yeah , what 's the over - under ? 44 and a half ? man , that 's easy money . uh , give me a -- give me a dime on the over and give me two dimes on -- [ cell phone thuds ] jack : what the hell is wrong with you ? do you have any idea what you 've done ? kevin : no , thank you for all your help . all right , i 'll be in touch . auf wiedersehen . mariah : what are you doing ? kevin : huh ? what do you mean ? mariah : `` thanks for all your help . i 'll talk to you later , swiss miss . auf whatever . `` kevin : is that really how i sound ? mariah : yes . kevin : mariah , you 're jealous . mariah : please . i just do n't want you getting involved with something like paragon . once was enough , just like our sex life . kevin : i ca n't tell you what i 'm working on , but i will tell you this . if it 's as big as i think it is , it 's gon na change the world . dr. anderson : thanks for the free sumatra . i hope sharon and sully like the gift . dylan : i 'm sure they will . dr. anderson : okay . bye . dylan : thanks . nick : it 's funny , is n't it , how sandy 's made herself indispensable ? dylan : sandy ? nick : yeah . that 's dr. anderson 's name . i mean , a few months ago , we did n't even know who she was . now she 's involved in all our lives . dylan : yeah , i mean , she really helped sharon . you know , she follows up with her patients even after they leave fairview . sharon and i owe her a lot . chelsea : sometimes i forget how you and i met . sage : oh , well , that would be when i was pretending to be mrs. gabriel bingham . chelsea : uh , yeah , one lie of many . sage : well , it was n't just adam 's lie . i was a co - conspirator . chelsea : i mean , you did a lot to help him . it was n't just acting . so something must have made you want to go out of your way for him . sage : well , uh , he looked like my best friend . that helped . [ chuckles ] i do n't know . you know adam . he 's charming and confident and intelligent . but , you know , underneath all that , there 's this vulnerability . you just kind of ca n't resist him . chelsea : you fell in love with him , did n't you . victor : newman enterprises is gon na sue jabot and all the abbotts on its payroll for the damage done to newman enterprises by billy and phyllis when they manipulated the paragon virus to destroy my company . phyllis : you can not do that . victor : watch me . i 'm gon na bleed you dry , take every dime away from you . and the best thing -- it 's legal . tell jack it 's just business , okay ? i 'll see you in court . phyllis : [ sighs deeply ] billy : what ? are you here to lecture me , jack ? go for it , 'cause you 're not gon na put a dent in me . i 'm made of stone these days . jack : it 's been over two years , billy . enough ! stop blaming every idiotic thing you do on that poor little girl who died ! billy : you know , jack , if you had my back just once -- just once -- that 's all that i wanted . but no , you had to keep your hands clean , did n't you , while i did everything that you did n't have the guts to do ! jack : i 'm through , billy . i 'm through defending you . i am through enabling your every addiction , 'cause that 's what this is . you are hooked on revenge . well , i 'm done . you 're on your own now . billy : no , see , th - that 's where you 're wrong , jack . see , phyllis is on my side with this . she wants to see victor suffer just as much as i do , but unlike you , she does n't let her enemies walk all over her ! come on , jack . what you wo n't do to victor , why do n't you do it to me ? [ next_on ] marisa : you said you knew where she was . luca : yes , well -- marisa : was that just a ploy to get me to come to spain with you ? nick : i 'm giving her the space she needs . noah : that 's the worst possible thing you could be doing . jack : you 've been saying you owe me ? i 'm here to collect . | nick and sage struggle to communicate with each other , and they are driven further apart by the loss of baby christian . chelsea is n't happy to learn that sage fell in love with adam while he was gabriel bingham , and she fears that she may still have feelings for him . nick discovers that dr. anderson 's name is sandy , but he does n't remember that she is a woman from his past . jack returns home and is disappointed to learn that phyllis and billy were the ones who restarted the paragon virus . jack tells billy that he is tired of being his enabler , so that he can drink and gamble and blame everything on delia 's death . the two brothers almost come to blows when billy thinks that jack is weak for not seeking revenge on victor for everything he has done to them . victor likes adam 's idea of suing jabot for the damages they caused newman enterprises . | <s>[INST] victor : well , the fire and the computer virus , you know , did some damage , but it 's gon na take a hell of a lot more to bring down newman enterprises . you bet . and the contracts are still binding . you heard it from the horse 's mouth , all right ? yep . thank you . victoria : working the phones ? victor : nervous nellies , for heaven 's sake . nervous vendors . they are worried that the contracts are no longer any good . they do n't realize that newman enterprises will be stronger after this damn paragon virus disaster than ever before . victoria : it is good to see you so optimistic . victor : by the way , i was about to send you and everyone else in the executive committee an e - mail saying that we 're gon na vacate the jabot building , all right ? we have already . victoria : when ? victor : last night . i ca n't stand being around people who wanted to destroy all of us . victoria : well , in that case , you better come with me , dad . i , um , i have a little surprise for you . victor : what ? jack : phyllis ! ashley : no , it 's just me . sorry to disappoint you . jack : hey , sis . ashley : hey , yourself . welcome back . jack : sorry . i should have given you a better welcome . i just flew in from geneva , went straight to the house . phyllis is n't there . i come to the building and find out victor left in the middle of the night . ashley : was n't that so gracious of him ? jack : the kicker is that ian ward got captured . does n't take long to do the math there . obviously this whole trip for me was a setup . phyllis and billy sent me to switzerland on a bogus tip so that i 'd be out of the way . phyllis decided she was going to set herself up as bait . she knew i would n't go along with that . ashley : gets much worse from there , jack . billy : [ snoring ] oh , vicki , i knew you 'd forgive me . phyllis : oh , no , billy , damn it ! what have you done to yourself ? mariah : you have got to be kidding . i will absolutely take you up on that offer . dylan : well , godmothers get free coffee for life . mariah : what ? ! dylan : yes . mariah : why did nobody tell me about this godmother scam ? dylan : [ chuckles ] so , what 's going on ? you got the morning off ? mariah : uh , no , not really . i should be at the underground setting up . dylan : so , why are n't you ? mariah : i 've been kind of avoiding the place lately . sage 's mood swings . dylan : yeah . you got to cut her a break . mariah : what i want to do is break her arm . look , i know . i know that she is going through a hard time . but so is nick , and he 's not having meltdowns all over the place . dylan : [ sighs ] yeah . you know , when -- when sage asked to hold sully right before the christening , sharon and i were kind of holding our breath . it was -- it was a little tense . but we got through it . just made us realize how lucky we are and , you know , it could have been us . mariah : you and sharon ca n't feel guilty over having a healthy baby to love . dr. anderson : you 're so right about that . guilt is a waste of time and energy . then again , i felt badly for missing the ceremony , so i brought a little something for dylan and sharon 's baby . chelsea : connor really wanted to wish his daddy good luck on his first day at the office . adam : is he still asleep ? chelsea : yeah . adam : yeah ? chelsea : it took forever to get him down last night . i think he knows we have a house guest . adam : well , just let him sleep . let sage sleep , for that matter . she needs her rest . chelsea : yeah . i was really hoping we could have a few more days together before you start serving your sentence . adam : with my dad as the jailer ? are you serious ? chelsea : kind of feels like you 've traded one prison for another . adam : well , you know , a deal 's a deal . newman needs me . i 'm the right man for the job . but i will be playing by my own set of rules . chelsea : okay . does victor know that ? adam : well ... [ doorbell rings ] adam : i 'll get it . oh . yeah , are we carpooling to work or some -- i forgot , you -- you do n't work at newman anymore , do you ? nick : sage texted me , said she was staying here . i want to see her . adam : oh . come on in . here 's the thing , nick . um ... i ca n't let you see her . nick : i do n't remember needing permission from you to speak with my wife . adam : she needed a timeout , nick . nick : from me ? adam : yeah . it 's hard enough she 's dealing with the loss of a child . she does n't need to deal with failing her husband . chelsea : nick , we 're just trying to give her a safe place to rest . nick : [ sighs ] look , i know you mean well , but how are things supposed to get better between us if she 's avoiding me ? sage : okay . you want to talk , nick ? let 's talk . do you still love me ? dylan : well , thank you . that 's very nice of you . i 'll take it home and let sully help open it . dr. anderson : i hope he enjoys it . dylan : i 'm sure he will . but honestly , you 've given our family the greatest gift . you took great care of sharon , and you got her back to a really good place . dr. anderson : you know , i 'd love to get an update on how you all are doing . dylan : sure . come on . kevin : so , you gon na stare off into space all day , or what ? mariah : [ chuckling ] oh , my god . you 're alive . [ chuckles ] kevin : hi . mariah : hi ! i only texted you about a zillion times . i was starting to wonder if you were coming back at all . do they not have cell service in zurich ? kevin : geneva . but it 's nice to know you missed me . mariah : well , it 's not that . see , i did n't know if you were coming back at all , so i sold all your stuff . but i promise i 'll let you in on half . kevin : well , that seems fair . mariah : truth ? kevin : mm - hmm . mariah : i did kind of miss you . that 's only because there was so much craziness going on here . i kind of needed somebody to help me sort it out . kevin : well , you know i 'm a master of sorting things out . mariah : so , how was switzerland ? did you end up finding the hacker that created paragon ? kevin : no . it was one dead end after another . mariah : i 'm sorry . bummer . kevin : yeah . and the worst part was realizing that billy engineered the entire thing . jack thinks he wanted to get us out of the way for a bit . mariah : what ? ! so -- so there 's no hacker guy ? kevin : oh , there 's a hacker , only it 's not a guy . and she 's pretty damn amazing . victor : what is this ? are you serious ? my goodness . victoria : i 've been driving the crew day and night . the structural engineer says that the building is sound , but there 's still a few cosmetic things that need to be done , and we 're still a few weeks out from opening , but command central could be ready pretty soon . um , family photos will be here in a little while , and i even stocked the bar with your favorite tequila . victor : how do i thank you , my sweetheart ? this means a lot to me , okay ? victoria : i know it does . victor : whoa . victoria : pretty soon , it 'll be as good as new . victor : yeah . victoria : yep . victor : well , i guess this was just canvas and oil , was n't it ? that could n't survive a fire . victoria : i think it would take more than a few minor setbacks ... to destroy this . just like you . phyllis : i wake up to the news that you have been arrested for drunk driving . billy : [ sighs ] phyllis : made for a fantastic morning . billy : well , i 'm glad i could be there for you . how 'd you find me ? phyllis : i did n't know . i figured you 'd be here . what in the hell were you thinking ? billy : you know , you are partly to blame for this . phyllis : excuse me ? how am i responsible for your dui ? billy : oh , well , you 're the one who pushed me to go to that christening , which [ chuckles ] made vicki really , really happy . and then i got into it with lurch , who -- who , by the way , now knows for a fact that you and i resurrected paragon , so there 's that . and , uh , yeah . yeah , that 's for the , uh , pep talk . i 'm really glad i listened , phyllis . phyllis : vicki did n't give you any extra points for trying ? billy : [ chuckles ] no . no . no . she , um , practically commanded me to leave and i had no shot with her . and then , uh , victor piled on . i went to the bar and ashley would n't let up , so ... phyllis : you got plastered , got in your car , and wound up in jail . let me guess -- vicki wo n't let you anywhere near the kids ? billy : huh . that -- that 's -- that 's pretty impressive . you know , um , maybe you could help me out with my football picks . i 'm a little rusty on my stats . phyllis : no . no . billy : [ sighs ] phyllis : i am not gon na let you do this . i am not gon na let you self - destruct again . billy : you 're not ? phyllis : no . victor got what he had coming to him , and i would gladly do it again . but i need you to listen up to me right now . jack is home , which means we have to face him and take the heat , so you need to get in the shower , sober up , and change into something that does n't smell like a distillery . billy : you are on your own , sweets , because i 'm not gon na sit around and listen to jack give me another lecture on how i screwed up again . jack : how could billy not realize that reviving paragon could hurt us , too ? ashley : because the damage to jabot would be minor , unlike what was being inflicted upon newman . for his plan to work , it had to look like jabot was being under attack , too . jack : of all the harebrained moves ... why would he do this ? ashley : during the fire , when victor urged adam to disappear , i think something in billy snapped . so they came up with this plan . they knew you would n't agree with it , so they sent you out of town . jack : you keep saying `` they . `` phyllis and billy ? they 've been working together all this time ? ashley : yes . and they 've been keeping it from everybody , including me . look , i can somewhat understand billy 's motivation because it was personal , you know , because of delia , but i do n't understand phyllis . why would she antagonize victor when she knew that you would get hurt in the process ? jack : did you ask her ? ashley : absolutely . she said he ruined her honeymoon . now , what the hell does that mean ? jack : i guess you have to know everything . ashley : about what ? jack : because of victor , phyllis spent our honeymoon in the arms of a ruthless psychopath . nick : of course , i still love you . sage , i do not want to have this conversation here . please come home with me . sage : nick , how could you possibly love me after everything that 's happened ? nick : i do n't know what more i can say or do to make you realize we both lost a child . sage : i know that . but why is it pulling us apart ? nick : because you 're turning to other people . you should be turning to ... sage : i know . i should be turning to you , nick , and i 've tried . you know i 've tried . but there 's this thing in between us . i do n't know what it is . i do n't know why ! nick : sage ... sage : nick , you say all the right things . but we 're just not connecting . we can not come together over this . i do n't know ! nick : when cassie died , i turned my back on sharon . she needed me , and i left her to fend for herself . i felt like i could n't ... i could n't handle it . i needed to get away . i was wrong . i did the worst thing you could do . instead of turning to my wife , i turned to phyllis . and i see you doing the same thing . you 're creating all this distance between us , not just physically but emotionally . you 're making all these ridiculous claims about how i feel ? sage : so this is all my fault , then ? nick : do not twist my words . you know i 'm not saying that . sage : nick , when you do this to me , i feel backed into a corner , and we 're not really acknowledging what 's going on ! chelsea : sage , why do n't -- why do n't we go into the kitchen ? nick : chelsea . adam : hey , um ... i 'm sorry . i - i did n't -- [ clears throat ] i did n't mean to get in between you two by offering her a place to stay . nick : well , that 's you , right ? always the good samaritan . adam : nick , chelsea and i want to help you , okay ? we want to help you and sage find your way back together , so ... i 'm willing to do anything . what do you want me to do ? nick : can you bring back my son ? ! adam : your son . dr. anderson : so you 're not seeing any signs of depression ? dylan : no , no . she 's great . sharon 's like a new woman , or maybe like the woman she was before -- dr. anderson : before she went off her meds . dylan : exactly . dr. anderson : but it really started long before that , did n't it ? her on - again , off - again relationship with nick . it 's really taken a toll on sharon 's emotional wellbeing . dylan : yeah , i mean , you know , i do n't blame nick . you know , people change , relationships do n't always go the way we want them to . dr. anderson : true . although i - i do find it telling that sage is having similar issues to what nick experienced years ago . has he discussed that with you ? dylan : uh , that would be between my brother and i , would n't it ? dr. anderson : i - i appreciate you wanting to keep his confidence . but nick has confided in me , as well . you know , it 's not his fault that sage is having a hard time accepting that sharon has a healthy baby while she has to mourn for her son . dylan : yeah , well , look , we want sage to be a part of sully 's life , but right now ... dr. anderson : she ca n't handle it . that 's why , as harsh as this sounds , you and sharon have to keep your baby away from her . victoria : oh , that 's perfect . so , do you think that you can work in a little bit of chaos ? victor : oh , sweetheart , i thrive on that . will you join me ? victoria : i would love to . victor : oh , yeah ? victoria : mm - hmm . what 's the first order of business ? gon na call the police and have billy arrested ? victor : [ sighs ] he deserves it , do n't you think ? victoria : [ sighs ] after delia died , i think something broke in him . i think he 's paying for that . victor : ah . victoria : i told him that we 're through , dad . i kicked him out of the house . and if he does n't get his head on straight , i will go to court and have his visitation reduced . do n't you think that 's punishment enough ? victor : he conspired to bring all of us down to destroy me and my company . anyway , it 's a start . victoria : [ sighs ] he still has to face jack and the rest of his family . victor : oh , once he does , i 'm sure they 're gon na turn their back on him and he 'll be -- he 'll be finished . victoria : and that will be the end of it for you . victor : you know , there 's an old , very wise saying . `` when you try to kill a king , you better not miss . `` victoria : [ sighs ] well , i guess that 's my answer . victor : the only question now is how do we retaliate ? adam : we strike back as hard as possible . victor : that 's a good start . ashley : so when phyllis got back from st. barts , she thought this marco creep was you ? jack : and victor allowed her to believe it . and you and billy and everyone else . it was n't till i clawed my way back here that i could tell phyllis about it . ashley : jack , why the hell did n't you tell me sooner ? i mean , it would explain a lot . that man 's behavior was disgusting and erratic and -- jack : believe me , i wanted to tell you . i knew you did n't trust me , but i could n't address it because i had this pact with victor . ashley : my god , i 'm so happy you made it out of that whole thing okay . and the fact that you and phyllis are still intact as a couple is nothing short of a miracle . i mean , really . jack : yes and no . i honestly thought phyllis was over the need to make victor pay for the whole marco thing . obviously i was wrong about that . phyllis : there he is . [ chuckles ] thank god you 're home . [ sighs ] jack : good to see you , too , babe . ashley : i have a meeting down the hall . call me if you need backup . jack : thank you , sis . phyllis : well , very , very lonely without you here . how was geneva ? did you find out anything ? jack : you know i did n't find out anything . you know this whole trip was a setup to get me out of the way so that you and billy could sic paragon on victor again . phyllis : and may i say it was ever so glorious . jack : what did you hope to accomplish ? i mean , besides hurting a lot of people ? phyllis : have you forgotten what he did to us , jack ? jack : i have n't forgotten a thing . it does n't justify what you -- phyllis : the hell it does n't . i 'm gon na call this for what it is . victor may have smirked for kelly tormenting you or putting a stranger with your face in our bed , but i had the ultimate pleasure of seeing his life 's work ruined . billy and i mutilated newman enterprises , and what 's more , we enjoyed it . it made us feel like some tiny fraction of wrong that had been done to us was finally avenged . and i know what you 're wondering . you 're wondering , `` was it worth it , phyllis ? `` and the answer is absolutely yes . jack : i have n't seen this side of you for years . phyllis : it 's about time , do n't you think ? jack : angry and vengeful and -- we will talk about this later . right now , i 'm gon na deal with my brother . phyllis : you 're not gon na find billy in his office . victoria kicked him to the curb , and he imploded . jack : how ? phyllis : dui . jack : oh , god . phyllis : after he got out of night court , he went on a bender and finally passed out at the club . i tried to help him , but he is a total mess . maybe you can reach him . billy : give me a cup of coffee , um ... hey , you 're the guy from last night , right ? the guy who did n't call me a cab ? look , do me a favor . next time you see me in here getting drunk and i say i can drive , call me a cab . coffee . black . hot . you know what ? um ... on second thought ... forget the coffee . give me a , uh , give me a bloody mary . bloodier , the better . and this time ... hold on to those . victoria : you want to sue jabot ? adam : well , you know , not just jabot . i 'm talking about the officers , the directors . i figure anybody on the letterhead is fair game at this point . victor : that includes billy boy . adam : mm - hmm . victoria : and that also includes jack . adam : that also includes ashley . victor : mm - hmm . adam : let 's face it . we all have someone over there that we would rather not be the target of this , but we do n't have the luxury of looking at it that way . this is not just business . this is survival of the fittest . now , that -- that company , they launched that virus against us , and we were already weak . now their reputation deserves to suffer accordingly . we 'll be able to regain some of our lost profits . we 'll be hurting them in the process . it 's a win / win . that combined with the santori money we were able to secure should be enough to put us back on top . what do you think ? victor : i like the way you think , adam . simple and effective . victoria : if we 're gon na retaliate , at least it 's fair and legal . adam : yep . it 's unanimous ? victor : so , when do we start ? adam : well , victoria , with your help , i think we can start immediately . victor : remember what damage that family tried to inflict upon us , okay ? so , i 'll leave the two of you alone . you decide when to do what . i need to go somewhere . mariah : so , tell me about this mystery woman you met in switzerland . is she involved with paragon ? kevin : i ca n't talk about it . mariah : you ... [ chuckling ] you ca n't talk about it ? shut up . why not ? [ cell phone chimes ] kevin : oh , my god , it 's her . i have to get back to her . in private . dylan : keeping sage away from sully seems kind of mean , especially if it could help her with her loss . dr. anderson : that 's just it . being around your newborn will only reinforce that loss . for sage 's own sake , she should n't be anywhere near that baby . nick : since when are you my wife 's doctor ? go back to fairview and stay there . dylan : nick , dr. anderson 's just trying to -- trying to help . nick : yeah , well , everyone 's trying to help . and everyone 's just making it worse . dylan : w - what do you mean ? nick : sage took off last night , and adam and chelsea took her in because she said she ca n't be around me right now . now dr. know - it - all here says sage ca n't even be around her nephew ? what the hell ? ! where do you get off ? ! mariah : hey . is everything okay ? nick : i guess i 'm the one who should n't be around people right now . dylan : nick . dr. anderson : no , let -- let me . let me . nick . look , if -- if i came across as a know - it - all , i owe you an apology . nick : great . we 're even . dr. anderson : your brother 's handing out free coffee . maybe we should start there . nick : start what ? dr. anderson : you seem like you need to vent . nick : [ sighs ] you know what ? sure . let 's give it a shot , but do n't say i did n't warn you . i do n't even know your first name . dr. anderson : sandy . nick : sandy . fine . i 'll get us some coffee . adam : well , victor wants this started like yesterday , so let 's earn those retainers and get this legal ball rolling , okay ? all right . what 's the matter ? you having second thoughts about suing billy boy ? victoria : do you really think i want to see the father of my children suffer ? billy did bring this on himself , i guess . adam : that 's right . he did . so what 's with the look ? victoria : you . i just do n't know what to think . it 's like a whole , new side of adam . you want to bring in the lawyers and go to court instead of something more juicy and vengeful . adam : well , it 's tempting . i 'm not gon na lie to you . but our father expects us to rebuild our brand here , you know , not just settle for simple vengeance . that 's gon na take money . victoria : you know , i never thought i would say this , but i agree with dad . letting you go to prison would have been a big waste . adam : well , i owe him , you know . the least i can do is reward his faith in me . victoria : ah . there 's the adam that i know . the one that thinks he can snow me and get away with it . phyllis : thought i might find you here . i was pretty sure you did n't have a meeting down the hall . ashley : i thought you and jack needed a little time alone . phyllis : we did . thank you . he just left to go find billy . ashley : well , it should n't be too hard to find him . just got to follow the path of destruction . leads right to the end of the bar . phyllis : you know this is n't all billy 's fault . ashley : i do know that . and if you 're here to explain exactly why you got involved -- phyllis : ashley , i may give the impression that i do n't give a damn what people think about me , and for 99.9 % of the population , that is true . but i have immense respect for you . ashley : well , thank you very much . what i was about to say , phyllis , is if you were here to explain , you do n't have to , because jack did . he told me everything that victor did , i mean , everything about marco , and i just ... i 'm so sorry . i mean , i 've always understood billy 's rage towards victor , but now i understand yours , too , and i just wish that you trusted me to talk to me about it . phyllis : i wanted to tell you . i mean , carrying that around with me and knowing that i had been fooled for so many months ? ashley : at least you had jack , right ? i mean , he was a victim , too . phyllis : and you would think that 's a bond , but it was n't . if anything , it has made me feel more like billy . filled with the rage that just wo n't go anywhere . jack can find constructive ways to deal with it , but i am not jack . and joining forces with billy to bring victor down , that made me feel like i was doing something . i felt empowered . ashley : okay . but what about billy ? i mean , do you think it made his life better or -- victor : i understand your brother jack is back from europe . is he around ? dr. anderson : ah . thanks . nick : sure . dr. anderson : it 's nice of dylan to hand out free coffee . nick : yeah . it is . i did n't even think of handing out anything when noah was born . he was so tiny . he was fighting for his life . dr. anderson : like christian . well , now noah 's a healthy young man . summer and faith are both thriving . nick : now sage ca n't have kids anymore . it does n't make my loss any less . dr. anderson : no . but it does make it different . nick : what are you saying ? that -- that sage is better off with her ex and avoiding me right now ? i mean , is that your professional opinion ? dr. anderson : speaking as sandy , not dr. anderson , sage is n't the only one who needs to heal . so do you . so , yes , i think spending some time apart might be good for both of you . kevin : natalie , you are a genius . i really think you 're on to something here . and if you 're right about this , it 's gon na be huge . ashley : jack 's not here . and it would have been really nice if you checked in with reception before barging in . what can i do for you ? victor : nothing , ashley . so , how was the homecoming ? was jack very happy to see you ? ashley : are you here on business ? because i can answer your questions . i am in charge here . victor : for now you are . considering the enormous damage done to newman enterprises by two of your executives , it 's just a question of time before they oust you . ashley : you know what ? why do n't you get out of here or i 'm gon na have security oust you . phyllis : i know exactly why you 're here . you want billy indicted , do n't you ? victor : interesting theory . i have something better in mind for jabot . ashley : how dare you ? you come in here and you make all these threats . victor : there are no threats , okay ? i 'm giving you fair warning , which is far more than you deserve . chelsea : you know , the holidays , they really stir up a lot of emotions in people , even if you 're okay . sage : which i 'm not . you know , this would have been my son 's first christmas . it 's hard .

[ scoffs ] where 's home , huh ? practically shut the door in nick 's face . chelsea : he 'll be back . sage : i do n't know . he 's a little too nice to admit this , but nick 's probably better off without me . chelsea : trust me . he 's a newman . he 's not that nice . besides , sage , he loves you . sage : yeah , it 's not the right kind of love . chelsea : is there really such a thing ? sage : yeah . when nick and i first met , we had this ... attraction to each other , this magnetic pull that we could n't fight . and now when he looks at me , i just see his pity . and the more he tells me that he loves me , the more i feel like it 's just a big lie . chelsea : hmm . well , feelings are n't facts . an addict told me that once . made a lot of sense to me . sage : i mean , maybe if we had another child ... chelsea : sage , a baby is not a relationship cure . you know that . sage : [ sighs ] chelsea , i 've seen what a baby can do . when adam fought his way back from that car wreck , it was n't solely out of love for you . it was because he so desperately wanted to be connor 's father again . the two were inseparable . you were family , and that was the most important thing . and that 's why , out of all the lies he 's told you and all the pain he 's caused you , you forgave him and you took him back . chelsea : sometimes i , um , sometimes i forget how connected you are to adam . adam : i made a deal with my father , victoria . it 's not a big secret . in exchange for him getting me out of prison , i agreed to help him rebuild newman . i 'm gon na lend my expertise . why is that so terrible ? victoria : it just depends on who you ask . adam : okay , well , if you 're talking about nick , i know that means sort of pushing him away , but his heart was never in this company anyway . and if you 're worried about your role being reduced , i can assure you -- victoria : oh , no , no , no . i 'm not worried about that at all . adam : excellent . then we can make our father proud together . victoria : congratulations . adam : [ sighs ] victoria : your first day on the job and you 're already talking the talk . i 'm sure you 're not playing the loyal son just because dad kept you out of prison . i 'm sure he 's holding something over your head . adam : victoria , in order for this to work , you 're gon na have to trust me , okay ? victoria : some things may have changed , like your face . but there 's one thing that will never change . i will never trust you . billy : hey . hey , yeah , what 's the over - under ? 44 and a half ? man , that 's easy money . uh , give me a -- give me a dime on the over and give me two dimes on -- [ cell phone thuds ] jack : what the hell is wrong with you ? do you have any idea what you 've done ? kevin : no , thank you for all your help . all right , i 'll be in touch . auf wiedersehen . mariah : what are you doing ? kevin : huh ? what do you mean ? mariah : `` thanks for all your help . i 'll talk to you later , swiss miss . auf whatever . `` kevin : is that really how i sound ? mariah : yes . kevin : mariah , you 're jealous . mariah : please . i just do n't want you getting involved with something like paragon . once was enough , just like our sex life . kevin : i ca n't tell you what i 'm working on , but i will tell you this . if it 's as big as i think it is , it 's gon na change the world . dr. anderson : thanks for the free sumatra . i hope sharon and sully like the gift . dylan : i 'm sure they will . dr. anderson : okay . bye . dylan : thanks . nick : it 's funny , is n't it , how sandy 's made herself indispensable ? dylan : sandy ? nick : yeah . that 's dr. anderson 's name . i mean , a few months ago , we did n't even know who she was . now she 's involved in all our lives . dylan : yeah , i mean , she really helped sharon . you know , she follows up with her patients even after they leave fairview . sharon and i owe her a lot . chelsea : sometimes i forget how you and i met . sage : oh , well , that would be when i was pretending to be mrs. gabriel bingham . chelsea : uh , yeah , one lie of many . sage : well , it was n't just adam 's lie . i was a co - conspirator . chelsea : i mean , you did a lot to help him . it was n't just acting . so something must have made you want to go out of your way for him . sage : well , uh , he looked like my best friend . that helped .

[ gasps ] i forgot to tell you the best part . katherine got rachel on her 12th birthday -- the date inscribed on this box . baby , why are n't you more excited ? we 've discovered the secret ! colin : [ sighs ] nick : i do n't see what good is gon na come of it . sharon : i need to find out what i confided to her . mariah : confided to me about ... ? if you 're talking about this secret of yours , you already asked me about it . sharon : i know , and you told me nothing , but i understand . you 're afraid of the repercussions from victor . since we last spoke , i learned something else . before i was hospitalized , i mentioned phyllis to you . nick : phyllis ? sharon : in connection to whatever it is i 'm hiding . mariah : yeah . yeah , you 're right . nick : what does phyllis have to do with this ? and how did you even know she was involved ? sharon : i spoke to victor . victor : well , i was right about billy abbott , was n't i ? nikki : what if you were ? you put victoria through as much pain and heartache as he ever could . victor : if she had taken my advice , she would be married to a decent man right now instead of that loser and gambler billy abbott . nikki : victor , it was n't advice . you were manipulating her life . victor : because she is not doing what is best for her . she never learns . neither does our son . do you want him to be married to sharon again ? nikki : you know it do n't . victor : then why are you fighting me on this ? would you rather i sit back and wait for sharon 's secret to come out , that would surely destroy everyone ? i did what i had to do . nikki : my god , do you even hear yourself , victor ? `` i , `` `` i , `` `` i `` -- that 's all it is with you . they are not just your children . they are our children . victor : yes . nikki : we 're supposed to be partners . but you kept me in the dark again . we are not partners . we are far from it . colin : you know , jill , i do n't know . this -- you know , it seems a little farfetched . jill : i know . i know . i thought the same thing at first . but then i remembered how katherine used to go on about that dog . it was `` rachel this `` and `` rachel that . `` and i thought , `` citizen kane `` had the rosebud thing . colin : mm - hmm . jill : why not katherine with rachel ? [ glasses clink ] jill : cheers . colin : well , [ chuckles ] i do n't see anything to be cheery about just yet . i mean , after all , we really are no closer to katherine 's money . jill : hmm . yeah . well , i guess it 's a good thing you did n't marry me for that , huh ? colin : mm - hmm . jill : guess it 's a good thing you married me for love . 'cause we got plenty of that . colin : ah . uh ... we should n't be quite so hasty . jill : well , then , honey , i can go as slow as you want . colin : well , [ chuckles ] yeah , while i 'm thinking about it , we should n't be so quick to give up on -- on the big payday . jill : you really think it could lead us somewhere ? colin : we owe it to ourselves to try . i mean , the more money that we got , the more money i can spend on you . jill : wow . what a romantic . colin : step one -- we got to get on the dog 's tail . jill : tail ? colin : trail . jill : trail . and where would that lead , do you think ? colin : well , you know , dog -- doggies bury bones . maybe -- maybe he buried a treasure chest . jill : yeah , but , see , the only trouble with that is katherine did n't have a treasure when she was a little girl . colin : good point . jill : unless -- no . that would n't work either . colin : what ? jill : well , i was just thinking that when she grew up and did get the treasure , maybe she buried it with rachel 's body , but then i remembered that poor rachel was cremated . colin : scattered to the wind , huh ? jill : yeah . unless ... colin : what ? jill : ... katherine kept the ashes . colin : who kepts the -- who keeps dog ashes ? jill : people do it all the time . they keep ashes . honey , i got to tell you . i think katherine pointed me in rachel 's direction for a reason . and i have a hunch when we find that urn , we 're gon na hit the jackpot . colin : maybe it 's under our noses . jill : no , it would n't be here . i would have found it . colin : well , uh , in the basement . huh ? jill : or the attic . colin : you take the high road , and i 'll take the low road , and i 'll be counting diamonds before you . jill : [ laughs ] [ sighs ] oh , my god . that 's what you think . okay , sweetheart . you want to start our marriage with lies and leaving me out of your game ? two can play at that . victor : why do you want me to be something that i 'm not ? i have n't changed since the day you and i got married . yet you seem to be continually surprised by my actions . nikki : look , you 're not a saint , and i 'm not asking you to be a saint . victor : oh , really ? nikki : i just worry that this time you 've gone too far -- beyond the point of return . i know that i will never look at you the same . victor : sweetheart , i had to take extraordinary measures to deal with a very dangerous woman , and i found the means , all right ? nikki : yeah . cassie . victor : and if cassie had done her damn job , sharon would be out of our lives . instead , she still poses a great danger . nick : why would you talk to my dad about this ? sharon : i had to . i had to find out what he knew , which did n't turn out to be much . nick : except the part about phyllis . sharon : he said that cassie -- that mariah heard me say that phyllis knew what i was keeping from you . nick : what else did you hear from sharon ? mariah : nothing . that 's all there is . nick : except the part about phyllis . look , i do n't believe you . this woman is not gon na help you . she may look like cassie , but she is not on your side . sharon : okay , whether she is or not , i need five minutes with her . i want to talk to her alone . victoria : the woman who posed as cassie is tyler 's ex - fiancée ? abby : mariah the pariah . victoria : how did dad hook up with her ? abby : oh , she slithered her way into town to try and lure tyler back , which is never gon na happen , and then crossed paths with dad . victoria : and he saw how much she looks like cassie . abby : and the rest is history . victoria : huh . abby : you know , i do n't usually feel sorry for sharon , but to lose your memory because your brain got zapped ? victoria : [ chuckles ] yeah , it 's unimaginable . abby : yeah . i - i always knew mariah was a piece of work , but she 's more than that . she 's dangerous , and that 's where you come in . victoria : me ? what do i have to do with this ? abby : i 'll tell you , but first , i want to know if you 're feeling any better , 'cause , to be honest , you kind of look like hell . billy : chelsea , i do n't need you to tell me that vicki is upset . okay , i know that she 's upset . in fact , guess what , i 'm upset , too . chelsea : will you -- will you just shut up and listen to me , please , for a second ? billy : no , i get it , okay ? you want to help me because i helped you the other night with connor when he was sick . but you do n't owe me anything . i did what i did with no strings attached . because contrary to popular belief , i 'm not a totally despicable guy . so , thank you for coming by , and we 'll do this again some other time . chelsea : no , no . this is n't about paying you back , okay ? [ sighs ] or maybe it is . god knows there are plenty of other places i 'd rather be right now . all i can say is i came here because ... i think i can help you -- you and victoria . nick : all right . i 'll give you some time alone . but i wo n't be far . mariah : i guess i wo n't be getting a christmas present from him anytime soon . sharon : can you blame him for being so angry ? but there 's a way you can make up for this . mariah : who says i want to make up for it ? sharon : i know that you checked in on me at the hospital , and you would n't have done that unless you felt some level of regret . mariah : it does n't matter what i feel . i ca n't help you . sharon : all i 'm asking is for you to tell me exactly what i said about phyllis and my secret . mariah : victor already gave you that information . sharon : you do n't know anything more ? mariah : no . and , believe me , i tried my hardest to get it out of you . who is this phyllis , anyway ? is she a friend of yours or something ? sharon : oh , not exactly . phyllis had an affair with nick when we were married . and then she got pregnant with nick 's daughter summer . only years later , we find out that nick is n't really her father . it 's complicated . mariah : yeah , no kidding . well ... [ sighs ] do n't you think it 's weird that the only woman that knows your secret is the woman who messed around with your husband ? sharon : yes . very . that 's one of the reasons why it 's so important that i figure this out . is n't there anything else you can tell me ? victoria : it 's not really worth getting into . just a little tired . abby : i guess i would be , too , if i were in your situation . victoria : let 's talk about yours and what i can do to help you . abby : okay . well , as my matron of honor , i want you to do anything it takes to make sure that mariah does n't do anything to spoil my wedding . victoria : would she even try now that we 've got our eye on her ? abby : [ chuckles ] i would n't put anything past her . and she has another thing coming if she thinks she 's gon na walk all over me to get to tyler . victoria : i 'm sure you can stand your ground . abby : [ chuckles ] he 's totally worth it , vicki . i think what happened to his mom all those years ago made him decide that when he fell in love , he was gon na cherish the woman in his life . he 's so sweet and caring , and he would do anything for me . which is pretty great , 'cause i can be high - maintenance sometimes . victoria : no . not you . i would n't think that for a second . abby : oh , shocking , i know . but tyler thinks a woman who knows her own mind is sexy . we really are the perfect match . i ca n't wait to move in together and throw family get - togethers and parties with friends and have babies and ... grandbabies and grow old together . that 's my dream , and i 'm not gon na let anyone ... take it from me . i - i am -- i am so sorry . victoria : [ sniffles ] abby : foot - in - mouth disease strikes again . victoria : [ crying ] no . it 's okay . it 's okay . listen , i do n't want to censor you just because billy and i are separated , but ... could we just do this another time ? you 're right . i really -- i do n't feel well right now . billy : my head is pounding . so whatever you have to say , just write it on a piece of paper , and i 'll read it in the morning . chelsea : do you want to get back together with victoria or do n't you ? billy : yes , but i am sick and tired of everybody coming over here , badgering me with advice about how to save my relationship . i have tried it all , chelsea . and none of it works . in fact , if anything , it 's made it worse . chelsea : this is different , billy . billy : why ? ! huh ? i mean , do you have a degree in marriage counseling or something ? ! and no offense , but i am [ chuckles ] never gon na listen to anything that you say . especially since the only reason vicki and i split was because of your beloved husband . chelsea : seriously ? adam made you sleep with another woman ? billy : you 're damn right he did . if i was n't so desperate over delia 's death , none of this would have happened . it 's all on adam . nikki : i hate to hear you talk like this , because it sounds like you 're gearing up for another attack . victor : sweetheart , if someone makes a move against my family , i will come after them . nikki : victor , when are you going to stop trying to prove to yourself that you 're a good father ? victor : i do n't have to prove a damn thing . nikki : no , you do n't . that 's exactly my point . you do n't have to prove it anymore ! you were a wonderful father . you gave those kids everything , and you fought as fiercely as anyone could for them . but lately , it 's been so fiercely that -- that you seem to have lost a side of yourself . i do n't know . i do n't know what 's happened to you . what -- what happened to the wonderful father who taught them how to play chess , taught them how to ride a horse , how to -- how to play soccer ? where is that wonderful , caring father ? where did he go , and why did he go ? did it have something to do with adam ? victor : what the hell does adam have to do with this ? nikki : did he disappoint you so much that you seem to have lost your sensitivity ? it turned out that -- victor : will you stop your psychobabble right now and just come home with me where you belong ? ! nikki : i can not ! [ voice breaking ] i ca n't . i have to stay here . i love you , but i have to stay here . victor : come here . you belong with me , as i belong with you , okay ? nikki : i need to think . [ breathing shakily ] just let me think . victor : just tell me that all of your words , all of your criticism , all of your recriminations mean nothing , that this is what you want -- that you want us to be together . nikki : victor ... of course that 's what i want . i will always want it . but right now , what i want and what i need are two different things . chelsea : you are so full of it . are you actually saying it 's adam 's fault you could n't keep your pants zipped ? billy : he killed my little girl . chelsea : yeah , i know . it was terribly unfair and terribly tragic , but that is where adam 's responsibility ends . the only person responsible for your marriage falling apart , billy , is you . and you 're the only person who can save it . i am standing here giving you an opportunity to do that , all right ? take it or leave it . billy : okay . so , go on . say what you 're gon na say . [ door opens ] abby : billy , i am so glad i caught you . i have to tell you what happened . oh . i 'm sorry . i - i did n't realize you had company . hi , chelsea . chelsea : hi , abby . abby : do you mind if i talk to my uncle ? it 's -- it 's kind of important . chelsea : go ahead . i 'm done here . billy : [ chuckles ] after all that , you 're just gon na leave ? i mean , i said i would listen . chelsea : all the signs are telling me to keep my mouth shut . i 'm just glad i realized it before it 's too late . abby : what was that all about ? billy : [ sighs ] mariah : there 's nothing left to say . i 've told you everything that i know , i promise . why do n't you ask phyllis ? sharon : i ca n't . she 's in a coma . some sort of accident , apparently . mariah : well , then you 're probably not gon na get much out of her , then . sharon : no . you know , the answers i 'm looking for -- they are locked inside of my head . i just wish there was someone who could help me get them out . mariah : do n't look at me . i 'm not a hypnotist . and your five minutes are up . i 've got to run . hey . you can stop worrying now . nick : how did it go ? was mariah any help ? sharon : yeah , she was a big help , even if she did n't realize it . colin : jill ! you up here ? ! no dead doggies in the -- in the basement . but i did find a rather nice bottle of cabernet . jill : colin , come here ! colin : did you find rachel ? jill : well , what 's left of her . colin : ooh , we could be in the money . jill : oh , keep your fingers crossed , huh ? colin : okay . yeah . yeah . any - anything ? jill : no , not yet . colin : well , dig deeper . jill : well , i 'm gon na ruin my manicure . colin : oh , please . give it to me . jill : okay . ah ! ah ! ah ! ah - choo ! colin : gesundheit . jill : oh , honey ! i 'm so sorry . i - i must be allergic to ashes . colin : uh , my lucky day . jill : oh , sweetie , do n't move . do n't move , okay ? i 'm gon na go and get you a nice wet towel . colin : mm - hmm . [ coughs ] ugh . [ sighs ] billy : i have no idea what that was all about . chelsea comes running in here all gung ho about some life - changing news , and then it 's like , `` never mind . `` abby : well , it gives me the chance to tell you my news . i just saw victoria , and she was very -- billy : she 's upset ? abby : yeah . how did you know ? billy : [ chuckles ] it 's a lucky guess . abby : i was talking to her about getting married and having babies and all that stuff , and out of nowhere , she just lost it . billy : what do you mean she lost it ? how ? abby : she started crying , and then she asked me to leave . i did n't want to , but i felt like if i stayed , she 'd just get even more worked up . billy : that was probably a wise decision . abby : [ sighs ] but think about it . she 's over there all alone , sad , vulnerable , nostalgic about the good ol ' days with the husband that she loves so much -- the husband that she would probably take back if he just went over there and put his arms around her and promised that he would never fool around again . billy : i 've tried that , abby . abby : then try again . and again , if you have to . billy : i know vicki . she 's just gon na dig her heels in even more . i know there 's a way to fix this , i just have n't found it yet . chelsea : i know it 's late , but ... i did n't want this to wait until morning . victoria : did n't want what to wait ? what 's going on ? chelsea : i just came from seeing billy . victoria : you did n't tell him that i 'm pregnant , did you ? chelsea : no . victoria : [ sighs ] chelsea : i intended to , but in the end , i backed down . victoria : why ? what changed your mind ? chelsea : you did . i started thinking about how you kept my confidence when i was pregnant with connor and i wanted to keep it from adam . i figured i owed you the same courtesy . victoria : thank you . chelsea : you may be relieved now , victoria ... but a secret like yours wo n't stay secret for long . trust me . something like this -- it always has a way of coming out . nikki : victor , i would love to be home with you , cuddled up on the couch , listening to music , just enjoying each other 's company . victor : well , then what are you waiting for ? nikki : if you pressure me , you 're gon na get a response , and you 're not gon na like it . i 'm sorry . victor : you belong with me . but i 'm not gon na beg you . [ rattling ] nikki : oh , god . [ glass clinking ] nikki : [ slams ] oh , god , help me . [ sighs ] what 's happening ? sharon : so , i asked mariah about phyllis , but she denied knowing anything . nick : well , of course she did . but before she walked away , she said something , and for her , it was probably just a throw away , but it gave me an idea . nick : what 's that ? sharon : i want to be hypnotized . colin : jill ! could you hurry up with that towel ? ! come on . communing with the dead is one thing , but this is absurd . jill ! [ sighs ] forget it . i 'll do it myself . [ doorknob rattles ] colin : oh , great . [ doorknob rattling ] colin : jill ! jill ! the door 's jammed on your side . can you undo it , please ? jill ! jill ! [ coughs ] [ pounds on door ] jill : [ softly ] you better make yourself comfortable , lover . 'cause it might be a while ... a long while . [ pounding continues ] colin : jill ! jill ! [ pounding continues ] [ next_on ] victor : what the hell are you doing here ? billy : well , good morning to you , too . victor : i asked what you 're doing here . avery : i just want this whole thing to be over with ! austin : you mean quit the show ? nikki : i will see you very soon . | nick and sharon take a walk in the park and discuss faith and the movie that she was watching . nick and sharon also discuss their relationship , which sharon does n't want to go forward with it . nick and sharon discuss the secret that she can not remember . mariah walks into the park and , upon seeing nick and sharon , starts to leave but sharon stops her . victoria imagines how it would be when she tells billy that she is expecting his child , but he ruins the moment by asking her if the baby is his . there is a knock at the door and it is abby . sharon , nick and mariah argue over what mariah did to try to drive sharon insane . mariah tells nick to let it go already . nikki and victor go up to her hotel room to discuss things . victor lets nikki know that ian ward has a room right down the hall from her . victor tries to reconcile with nikki , but all she wants to talk about is how victor hurt victoria and nick by his recent actions . chelsea arrives at billy 's to tell him that victoria is pregnant , but billy does n't want to hear what she has to say . jill shows colin a picture of a dog and says that it 's the clue to the music box . sharon asks for a few moments alone with mariah to talk to her , but she insists that she does n't know anything else that she needs to ask phyllis . | <s>[INST] nick : did you see the look on her face ? sharon : [ chuckles ] yeah . and the hand on the hip ? `` you know i 'm too old for ' pretty , pretty princess . ' `` nick : despite the fact that she watches it every single day . sharon : oh , she would never admit that in front of ella . nick : do you think we should be bothered by the fact that she chose to spend the night with her best friend over us ? sharon : i 'm just so glad she 's happy . nick : well , that is because of us . us getting back together -- that 's the only thing faith ever wanted . sharon : it 's the only thing i 've ever wanted . nick : you know , it really scared me when you said we should stay away from each other . sharon : i was just trying to spare us the pain of breaking up . nick : that is not gon na happen . sharon : but what about this terrible , dark , dark secret i have ? nick : [ sighs ] that word . that word . i 'm over it . in fact , i 'm banning it from any future conversation . sharon : you can ban it , but it 's still gon na be out there , looming . nick : look , you 're either gon na remember it or you 're not . but if you spend all your time worrying about it , then dad wins . and we can not let that happen . nikki : table for one , please . victor : hold off on that for a moment , will you ? nikki : victor , what are you doing here ? victor : thank you , son . i 'm on the way to the gym , okay ? you know , the sparring relieves tension . nikki : well , it sounds like something i should try sometime . victor : may i join you for dinner ? nikki : no , i 've changed my mind . i 'm gon na eat in my suite . victor : wait a minute . you and i need to talk in private . i think you owe me that much . sharon : whatever this thing is i 'm keeping from you , it is n't some invention of victor 's to keep us apart . it 's real . my therapist confirmed it . she said i was terrified that i would lose you over some secret . nick : there 's the word again . sharon : okay , i 'm sorry . [ chuckles ] nick : next time , there 's gon na be a penalty . sharon : what about this time ? nick : well , i might be persuaded to show you some mercy . sharon : did you have any particular persuasion in mind ? nick : something along these lines . sharon : wait . cassie ! wait . colin : i thought you 'd forgotten about my surprise . jill : oh , baby , no . i 'd never forget about your surprise . it 's all ready . colin : what 's all ready ? jill : [ sighs ] colin : i mean , is it -- is it all about wild , uninhibited , un - contained sex ? jill : [ laughs ] well , you 're close . it is one of your two favorite things , other than me , of course . colin : of course . jill : the second one being money . colin : what 's it all about ? jill : i 've piqued your interest , i see . colin : sex and money . one 's good . both -- better . jill : oh , colin , it 's finally happened . you know what we 've been after all this time ? our ship has finally come in . i have solved the mystery of the music box . billy : you 're not my mother . chelsea : how observant . billy : yeah , she was just here , and when i heard the knock at the door , i thought it was her coming back to inflict more grief on me . instead , it was you . chelsea : well , you 're in a good mood . billy : yeah , sorry . i 'm at the intersection of being drunk and hungover . so , whatever you came here to say , uh , be gentle . chelsea : that wo n't be easy . it 's about victoria . billy : you said you wanted to see me ? victoria : yes . there 's something i have to tell you . something that i had n't expected . [ sighs ] it 's actually kind of a shock . billy : but ... you 're all right ? i mean , everything 's okay . you 're not sick or anything , right ? victoria : no . no . just the opposite . it 's , um -- it 's the best news that could have ever happened . you and i are finally gon na have everything that we 've ever wanted . billy : i ca n't believe it . how ? victoria : [ chuckling ] how ? how do you think ? billy : no , i - i mean , with all the fertility treatments and all the months of disappointment , i began to lose hope it would ever happen . victoria : i know . me , too . but , you know , you know what they say -- when you least expect it . [ chuckles ] billy : [ chuckles ] it 's a miracle . victoria : what it is is it 's a sign . we need to forgive each other . we just need to be together -- you and me and johnny and this new baby . billy : [ chuckles ] wait a minute . there 's something wrong . i mean ... is it mine ? [ knock on door ] victoria : oh . hi . abby : who were you expecting , the husband or the boyfriend ? victoria : very funny . if you 're here to bug me about fixing things with billy , then , um -- abby : no . this is about something much more important than you . this is about me ... and tyler . there 's another woman in his life , and you wo n't believe who she is . sharon : cassie , wait . please . do n't go . mariah : you do remember that my name is n't cassie , right ? sharon : yes . i know . it 's -- it 's mariah . but it 's -- your face is cassie 's . nick : all right . what are you doing ? are you following us ? mariah : this is a public park . nick : answer the question . mariah : why would i be following you ? nick : because i still think you 're on my father 's payroll , digging up information , trying to drive sharon crazy . mariah : i never did that . nick : so you think masquerading around as her dead daughter , breaking into her house in the middle of the night , would n't have that effect ? sharon : nick ... mariah : get off my back , okay ? nick : i think you deserve so much worse . mariah : i thought you understood that i was bullied into this . nick : well , i 'm seeing things more clearly now . sharon : okay , stop it , both of you . nikki : there you are . [ door closes ] nikki : you know , i took this room so that i could have some time to myself , time to think things through . but , of course , you did n't respect that . victor : if that 's how you feel , then why did you invite me up here ? nikki : 'cause i did n't want to argue with you in public . victor : i do n't want to argue with you anywhere , okay ? nikki : really ? victor : no . nikki : you gave a very good impression of that yesterday . something along the lines of `` i do n't know if i will ever be able to forgive you . `` as if i was the one who needed to be forgiven . victor : what the hell did you expect me to say after you told me that you would n't stand by me ? nikki : an apology would have been nice . victor : i have nothing to apologize for . nikki : oh , i know that . victor : will you stop this nonsense ... and come home with me , where you belong , instead of this joint here ? that 's where you belong . come home with me . you ca n't be comfortable here . nikki : actually , it 's quite pleasant . victor : quite pleasant ? with ian ward down the hall ? nikki : what ? victor : that 's right . ian ward lives right down the hall . and that degenerate could come to this door any time and knock at it , okay ? nikki : well , then , i guess i 'm lucky that you have a security team on me 24/7 . did you think that i would n't notice them ? victor : if you do n't come home with me , for safety 's sake , then come home with me because i 'm asking you to , because i love you . okay ? do n't let this sharon thing come between us , for heaven 's sake . are you worried that a little collateral damage that sharon may suffer prevents you from coming home with me ? i did that to protect our son from her . nikki : so , you are finally admitting your guilt in this . victor : if looking after my family makes me guilty , then so be it . may i add that you would n't mind if you were the beneficiary of my protection ? nikki : victor , that 's not true . but i have to admit that ... there have been many times over these years that i was so grateful to have you . even back in the bayou days -- you got me out of there . you taught me so many things . you made me feel like the most special woman in the world . that 's why i fell in love with you . and i will always be in love with you , victor , and not just with the things that i said . you are just the most generous , caring man i 've ever known . well , you were , victor . and you still are . you know me better than anybody else . you 're a part of me . do you understand that ? we are soul mates . that 's why it just kills me when i see you continuing to hurt everybody . using chelsea to break up victoria and billy -- she was devastated over that . but i accepted it . i should n't have . i truly do n't know how much more i can take . billy : so , what about victoria ? chelsea : i ran into her earlier . billy : look , is there more to this story ? because i 'd really like to crawl upstairs and sleep this off . chelsea : she was upset , billy . she was -- she was really upset . billy : well , that seems to be the standard with victoria these days ... uh , especially if my name comes up . chelsea : you were a big part of the conversation , yeah . billy : well , i can only imagine what she said . chelsea : well , i 'm not sure you 'd imagine this . [ sighs ] but you need to hear it . billy : thank you , chelsea , but i 'm not interested . chelsea : [ sighs ] colin : [ chuckles ] this is the best news ! you are a genius ! jill : i am . i am a genius ! although i 'm a little embarrassed it took me so long to put the pieces together . but now i see the picture so clearly . colin : and what a picture ! katherine 's money , i mean -- jill : yeah . colin : well , what are we talking about ? how much ? jill : well , right now , not a dime . colin : but you solved the mystery . jill : yes , i solved it . colin : then i 'm confused . jill : okay . this will help clear it all up for you . colin : uh ... you 're kidding me , right ? jill : i am not kidding you . that is the key to both of us finally getting what we deserve . colin : this picture 's the key ? jill : yep . this picture is the answer we have been looking for all this time . colin : jill , it 's a picture of a dog . jill : i know , but it 's not just any dog . i can not believe i did n't see the connection before , but it all makes sense now . colin : well , what 's this mutt got to do with any of this ? jill : this `` mutt , `` as you call it was katherine 's beloved childhood pet . [ singsong voice ] and guess what her name was . colin : oh , i do n't know . fido ? mxyzptlk ? jill : [ laughs ] no . it was rachel . colin : rachel ? jill : mm - hmm . rachel . colin : [ chuckles ] who -- who calls a dog rachel ? jill : well , i do n't know why katherine did any of the things she did . colin : then there 's no connection between this and what 's in the box . jill : yes , there is , sweetheart . listen . the other day , i was looking at that card , and it suddenly struck me -- what if we misread the handwriting ? so i got out my magnifying glass , and i looked at it from every angle , and i was right . it does n't say , `` rachel berenson . `` it says , `` rachel , bernese . `` colin : so ? jill : hello ? bernese mountain dog ? colin : no . jill : yes . this is our mystery woman . colin : what about the picture taken in world war ii of that woman ? jill : well , beats me . i mean , maybe walter shepherd had a jeep driver , or maybe he picked her up in trafalgar square for a one - nighter . it does n't matter . this is our rachel . colin : well ... are you sure ? jill : it all makes sense . i mean , this dog breed originated in switzerland . the box is from switzerland . [ gasps ] i forgot to tell you the best part . katherine got rachel on her 12th birthday -- the date inscribed on this box . baby , why are n't you more excited ? we 've discovered the secret ! colin : [ sighs ] nick : i do n't see what good is gon na come of it . sharon : i need to find out what i confided to her . mariah : confided to me about ... ? if you 're talking about this secret of yours , you already asked me about it . sharon : i know , and you told me nothing , but i understand . you 're afraid of the repercussions from victor . since we last spoke , i learned something else . before i was hospitalized , i mentioned phyllis to you . nick : phyllis ? sharon : in connection to whatever it is i 'm hiding . mariah : yeah . yeah , you 're right . nick : what does phyllis have to do with this ? and how did you even know she was involved ? sharon : i spoke to victor . victor : well , i was right about billy abbott , was n't i ? nikki : what if you were ? you put victoria through as much pain and heartache as he ever could . victor : if she had taken my advice , she would be married to a decent man right now instead of that loser and gambler billy abbott . nikki : victor , it was n't advice . you were manipulating her life . victor : because she is not doing what is best for her . she never learns . neither does our son . do you want him to be married to sharon again ? nikki : you know it do n't . victor : then why are you fighting me on this ? would you rather i sit back and wait for sharon 's secret to come out , that would surely destroy everyone ? i did what i had to do . nikki : my god , do you even hear yourself , victor ? `` i , `` `` i , `` `` i `` -- that 's all it is with you . they are not just your children . they are our children . victor : yes . nikki : we 're supposed to be partners . but you kept me in the dark again . we are not partners . we are far from it . colin : you know , jill , i do n't know . this -- you know , it seems a little farfetched . jill : i know . i know . i thought the same thing at first . but then i remembered how katherine used to go on about that dog . it was `` rachel this `` and `` rachel that . `` and i thought , `` citizen kane `` had the rosebud thing . colin : mm - hmm . jill : why not katherine with rachel ? [ glasses clink ] jill : cheers . colin : well , [ chuckles ] i do n't see anything to be cheery about just yet . i mean , after all , we really are no closer to katherine 's money . jill : hmm . yeah . well , i guess it 's a good thing you did n't marry me for that , huh ? colin : mm - hmm . jill : guess it 's a good thing you married me for love . 'cause we got plenty of that . colin : ah . uh ... we should n't be quite so hasty . jill : well , then , honey , i can go as slow as you want . colin : well , [ chuckles ] yeah , while i 'm thinking about it , we should n't be so quick to give up on -- on the big payday . jill : you really think it could lead us somewhere ? colin : we owe it to ourselves to try . i mean , the more money that we got , the more money i can spend on you . jill : wow . what a romantic . colin : step one -- we got to get on the dog 's tail . jill : tail ? colin : trail . jill : trail . and where would that lead , do you think ? colin : well , you know , dog -- doggies bury bones . maybe -- maybe he buried a treasure chest . jill : yeah , but , see , the only trouble with that is katherine did n't have a treasure when she was a little girl . colin : good point . jill : unless -- no . that would n't work either . colin : what ? jill : well , i was just thinking that when she grew up and did get the treasure , maybe she buried it with rachel 's body , but then i remembered that poor rachel was cremated . colin : scattered to the wind , huh ? jill : yeah . unless ... colin : what ? jill : ... katherine kept the ashes . colin : who kepts the -- who keeps dog ashes ? jill : people do it all the time . they keep ashes . honey , i got to tell you . i think katherine pointed me in rachel 's direction for a reason . and i have a hunch when we find that urn , we 're gon na hit the jackpot . colin : maybe it 's under our noses . jill : no , it would n't be here . i would have found it . colin : well , uh , in the basement . huh ? jill : or the attic . colin : you take the high road , and i 'll take the low road , and i 'll be counting diamonds before you . jill : [ laughs ] [ sighs ] oh , my god . that 's what you think . okay , sweetheart . you want to start our marriage with lies and leaving me out of your game ? two can play at that . victor : why do you want me to be something that i 'm not ? i have n't changed since the day you and i got married . yet you seem to be continually surprised by my actions . nikki : look , you 're not a saint , and i 'm not asking you to be a saint . victor : oh , really ? nikki : i just worry that this time you 've gone too far -- beyond the point of return . i know that i will never look at you the same . victor : sweetheart , i had to take extraordinary measures to deal with a very dangerous woman , and i found the means , all right ? nikki : yeah . cassie . victor : and if cassie had done her damn job , sharon would be out of our lives . instead , she still poses a great danger . nick : why would you talk to my dad about this ? sharon : i had to . i had to find out what he knew , which did n't turn out to be much . nick : except the part about phyllis . sharon : he said that cassie -- that mariah heard me say that phyllis knew what i was keeping from you . nick : what else did you hear from sharon ? mariah : nothing . that 's all there is . nick : except the part about phyllis . look , i do n't believe you . this woman is not gon na help you . she may look like cassie , but she is not on your side . sharon : okay , whether she is or not , i need five minutes with her . i want to talk to her alone . victoria : the woman who posed as cassie is tyler 's ex - fiancée ? abby : mariah the pariah . victoria : how did dad hook up with her ? abby : oh , she slithered her way into town to try and lure tyler back , which is never gon na happen , and then crossed paths with dad . victoria : and he saw how much she looks like cassie . abby : and the rest is history . victoria : huh . abby : you know , i do n't usually feel sorry for sharon , but to lose your memory because your brain got zapped ? victoria : [ chuckles ] yeah , it 's unimaginable . abby : yeah . i - i always knew mariah was a piece of work , but she 's more than that . she 's dangerous , and that 's where you come in . victoria : me ? what do i have to do with this ? abby : i 'll tell you , but first , i want to know if you 're feeling any better , 'cause , to be honest , you kind of look like hell . billy : chelsea , i do n't need you to tell me that vicki is upset . okay , i know that she 's upset . in fact , guess what , i 'm upset , too . chelsea : will you -- will you just shut up and listen to me , please , for a second ? billy : no , i get it , okay ? you want to help me because i helped you the other night with connor when he was sick . but you do n't owe me anything . i did what i did with no strings attached . because contrary to popular belief , i 'm not a totally despicable guy . so , thank you for coming by , and we 'll do this again some other time . chelsea : no , no . this is n't about paying you back , okay ? [ sighs ] or maybe it is . god knows there are plenty of other places i 'd rather be right now . all i can say is i came here because ... i think i can help you -- you and victoria . nick : all right . i 'll give you some time alone . but i wo n't be far . mariah : i guess i wo n't be getting a christmas present from him anytime soon . sharon : can you blame him for being so angry ? but there 's a way you can make up for this . mariah : who says i want to make up for it ? sharon : i know that you checked in on me at the hospital , and you would n't have done that unless you felt some level of regret . mariah : it does n't matter what i feel . i ca n't help you . sharon : all i 'm asking is for you to tell me exactly what i said about phyllis and my secret . mariah : victor already gave you that information . sharon : you do n't know anything more ? mariah : no . and , believe me , i tried my hardest to get it out of you . who is this phyllis , anyway ? is she a friend of yours or something ? sharon : oh , not exactly . phyllis had an affair with nick when we were married . and then she got pregnant with nick 's daughter summer . only years later , we find out that nick is n't really her father . it 's complicated . mariah : yeah , no kidding . well ... [ sighs ] do n't you think it 's weird that the only woman that knows your secret is the woman who messed around with your husband ? sharon : yes . very . that 's one of the reasons why it 's so important that i figure this out . is n't there anything else you can tell me ? victoria : it 's not really worth getting into . just a little tired . abby : i guess i would be , too , if i were in your situation . victoria : let 's talk about yours and what i can do to help you . abby : okay . well , as my matron of honor , i want you to do anything it takes to make sure that mariah does n't do anything to spoil my wedding . victoria : would she even try now that we 've got our eye on her ? abby : [ chuckles ] i would n't put anything past her . and she has another thing coming if she thinks she 's gon na walk all over me to get to tyler . victoria : i 'm sure you can stand your ground . abby : [ chuckles ] he 's totally worth it , vicki . i think what happened to his mom all those years ago made him decide that when he fell in love , he was gon na cherish the woman in his life . he 's so sweet and caring , and he would do anything for me . which is pretty great , 'cause i can be high - maintenance sometimes . victoria : no . not you . i would n't think that for a second . abby : oh , shocking , i know . but tyler thinks a woman who knows her own mind is sexy . we really are the perfect match . i ca n't wait to move in together and throw family get - togethers and parties with friends and have babies and ... grandbabies and grow old together . that 's my dream , and i 'm not gon na let anyone ... take it from me . i - i am -- i am so sorry . victoria : [ sniffles ] abby : foot - in - mouth disease strikes again . victoria : [ crying ] no . it 's okay . it 's okay . listen , i do n't want to censor you just because billy and i are separated , but ... could we just do this another time ? you 're right . i really -- i do n't feel well right now . billy : my head is pounding . so whatever you have to say , just write it on a piece of paper , and i 'll read it in the morning . chelsea : do you want to get back together with victoria or do n't you ? billy : yes , but i am sick and tired of everybody coming over here , badgering me with advice about how to save my relationship . i have tried it all , chelsea . and none of it works . in fact , if anything , it 's made it worse . chelsea : this is different , billy . billy : why ? ! huh ? i mean , do you have a degree in marriage counseling or something ? ! and no offense , but i am [ chuckles ] never gon na listen to anything that you say . especially since the only reason vicki and i split was because of your beloved husband . chelsea : seriously ? adam made you sleep with another woman ? billy : you 're damn right he did . if i was n't so desperate over delia 's death , none of this would have happened . it 's all on adam . nikki : i hate to hear you talk like this , because it sounds like you 're gearing up for another attack . victor : sweetheart , if someone makes a move against my family , i will come after them . nikki : victor , when are you going to stop trying to prove to yourself that you 're a good father ? victor : i do n't have to prove a damn thing . nikki : no , you do n't . that 's exactly my point . you do n't have to prove it anymore ! you were a wonderful father . you gave those kids everything , and you fought as fiercely as anyone could for them . but lately , it 's been so fiercely that -- that you seem to have lost a side of yourself . i do n't know . i do n't know what 's happened to you . what -- what happened to the wonderful father who taught them how to play chess , taught them how to ride a horse , how to -- how to play soccer ? where is that wonderful , caring father ? where did he go , and why did he go ? did it have something to do with adam ? victor : what the hell does adam have to do with this ? nikki : did he disappoint you so much that you seem to have lost your sensitivity ? it turned out that -- victor : will you stop your psychobabble right now and just come home with me where you belong ? ! nikki : i can not ! [ voice breaking ] i ca n't . i have to stay here . i love you , but i have to stay here . victor : come here . you belong with me , as i belong with you , okay ? nikki : i need to think . [ breathing shakily ] just let me think . victor : just tell me that all of your words , all of your criticism , all of your recriminations mean nothing , that this is what you want -- that you want us to be together . nikki : victor ... of course that 's what i want . i will always want it . but right now , what i want and what i need are two different things . chelsea : you are so full of it . are you actually saying it 's adam 's fault you could n't keep your pants zipped ? billy : he killed my little girl . chelsea : yeah , i know . it was terribly unfair and terribly tragic , but that is where adam 's responsibility ends . the only person responsible for your marriage falling apart , billy , is you . and you 're the only person who can save it . i am standing here giving you an opportunity to do that , all right ? take it or leave it . billy : okay . so , go on . say what you 're gon na say . [ door opens ] abby : billy , i am so glad i caught you . i have to tell you what happened . oh . i 'm sorry . i - i did n't realize you had company . hi , chelsea . chelsea : hi , abby . abby : do you mind if i talk to my uncle ? it 's -- it 's kind of important . chelsea : go ahead . i 'm done here . billy : [ chuckles ] after all that , you 're just gon na leave ? i mean , i said i would listen . chelsea : all the signs are telling me to keep my mouth shut . i 'm just glad i realized it before it 's too late . abby : what was that all about ? billy : [ sighs ] mariah : there 's nothing left to say . i 've told you everything that i know , i promise . why do n't you ask phyllis ? sharon : i ca n't . she 's in a coma . some sort of accident , apparently . mariah : well , then you 're probably not gon na get much out of her , then . sharon : no . you know , the answers i 'm looking for -- they are locked inside of my head . i just wish there was someone who could help me get them out . mariah : do n't look at me . i 'm not a hypnotist . and your five minutes are up . i 've got to run . hey . you can stop worrying now . nick : how did it go ? was mariah any help ? sharon : yeah , she was a big help , even if she did n't realize it . colin : jill ! you up here ? ! no dead doggies in the -- in the basement . but i did find a rather nice bottle of cabernet . jill : colin , come here ! colin : did you find rachel ? jill : well , what 's left of her . colin : ooh , we could be in the money . jill : oh , keep your fingers crossed , huh ? colin : okay . yeah . yeah . any - anything ? jill : no , not yet . colin : well , dig deeper . jill : well , i 'm gon na ruin my manicure . colin : oh , please . give it to me . jill : okay . ah ! ah ! ah ! ah - choo ! colin : gesundheit . jill : oh , honey ! i 'm so sorry . i - i must be allergic to ashes . colin : uh , my lucky day . jill : oh , sweetie , do n't move . do n't move , okay ? i 'm gon na go and get you a nice wet towel . colin : mm - hmm . [ coughs ] ugh . [ sighs ] billy : i have no idea what that was all about . chelsea comes running in here all gung ho about some life - changing news , and then it 's like , `` never mind . `` abby : well , it gives me the chance to tell you my news . i just saw victoria , and she was very -- billy : she 's upset ? abby : yeah . how did you know ? billy : [ chuckles ] it 's a lucky guess . abby : i was talking to her about getting married and having babies and all that stuff , and out of nowhere , she just lost it . billy : what do you mean she lost it ? how ? abby : she started crying , and then she asked me to leave . i did n't want to , but i felt like if i stayed , she 'd just get even more worked up . billy : that was probably a wise decision . abby : [ sighs ] but think about it . she 's over there all alone , sad , vulnerable , nostalgic about the good ol ' days with the husband that she loves so much -- the husband that she would probably take back if he just went over there and put his arms around her and promised that he would never fool around again . billy : i 've tried that , abby . abby : then try again . and again , if you have to . billy : i know vicki . she 's just gon na dig her heels in even more . i know there 's a way to fix this , i just have n't found it yet . chelsea : i know it 's late , but ... i did n't want this to wait until morning . victoria : did n't want what to wait ? what 's going on ? chelsea : i just came from seeing billy . victoria : you did n't tell him that i 'm pregnant , did you ? chelsea : no . victoria : [ sighs ] chelsea : i intended to , but in the end , i backed down . victoria : why ? what changed your mind ? chelsea : you did . i started thinking about how you kept my confidence when i was pregnant with connor and i wanted to keep it from adam . i figured i owed you the same courtesy . victoria : thank you . chelsea : you may be relieved now , victoria ... but a secret like yours wo n't stay secret for long . trust me . something like this -- it always has a way of coming out . nikki : victor , i would love to be home with you , cuddled up on the couch , listening to music , just enjoying each other 's company . victor : well , then what are you waiting for ? nikki : if you pressure me , you 're gon na get a response , and you 're not gon na like it . i 'm sorry . victor : you belong with me . but i 'm not gon na beg you . [ rattling ] nikki : oh , god . [ glass clinking ] nikki : [ slams ] oh , god , help me . [ sighs ] what 's happening ? sharon : so , i asked mariah about phyllis , but she denied knowing anything . nick : well , of course she did . but before she walked away , she said something , and for her , it was probably just a throw away , but it gave me an idea . nick : what 's that ? sharon : i want to be hypnotized . colin : jill ! could you hurry up with that towel ? ! come on . communing with the dead is one thing , but this is absurd . jill ! [ sighs ] forget it . i 'll do it myself . [ doorknob rattles ] colin : oh , great . [ doorknob rattling ] colin : jill ! jill ! the door 's jammed on your side . can you undo it , please ? jill ! jill !

tek : he 's no longer on the force . he 's been relieved of active duty . lexie : is that the real reason you 're treating him this way ? or is it that you 're angry because he accused us of wanting to be together ? tek : that 's not the reason at all , even though he is right ... at least for my part . i mean , i 'd like nothing better than to continue what we had before he got back .

[ previously_on ] nick : [ sighs ] we 're talking about multiple video screens , each with their own audio feed . full - blown surveillance of the entire house . kyle : i do n't want to see you get hurt . summer : well , i 'm a big girl , so i can handle myself . kyle : yeah , that 's what you said about billy . lola : i ca n't tell if you 're trying to convince me that we 're good , or that you 're trying to convince yourself that summer ca n't get to you . lauren : did n't you get the text that our models got stuck in new york ? i found the perfect replacement for -- well , now you only have to find one . fen : apparently being a hot recording star is a real turn - on . just ask summer . kyle : okay . anything else ? phyllis : the photographer uploaded the photos from your shoot . kyle : yeah ? what 's the verdict ? how bad are they ? using you [ sighs ] to replace the no - show model was probably the worst decision i have ever made . kyle : that bad , huh ? phyllis : that good . now i have to worry about modeling agencies poaching my hardest working team member . kyle : [ chuckles ] do n't forget i have a back - up plan when it 's time to renegotiate my contract . phyllis : i am sending you a file , uh , with some changes that need to be made and whatever needs to be fixed . uh , if you can get those edits back to me fast , that would be great . thank you so much , kyle . fantastic job . okay . bye- bye . hi . summer : hi . phyllis : what brings you by ? summer : oh , just thought you could use your mid - morning caffeine rush . phyllis : bless you . summer : uh , so , that was kyle ? phyllis : mm - hmm . he 's editing some photos from our latest campaign . no news from newman ? summer : no . victoria has n't figured out what projects i 'm working on yet , so i 've got a lot of time on my hands . phyllis : honey , be grateful , you know ? because when they start piling on the work , that 's when fun time is over . get together with some of your friends . summer : uh , and those would be ... ? phyllis : the ones you hang with , eat with , play with . summer : all right . and that would be none . phyllis : really ? what about kyle ? were n't you guys getting tight before you left for dubai ? summer : uh , well , if , uh , things were weird before , they are just downright awkward now . phyllis : how so ? summer : when i was fixated on billy , kyle could n't get enough of me . and i would barely give him the time of day . after billy , i guess i had this rude awakening that kyle was the one that i should have been with all this time . you know , he gets me . he 's never tried to change me or fix me , and he 's always there . no matter what . but by the time i realized that there could be anything real between us , he already found lola . kyle : [ sighs ] mariah : working hard or hardly working ? kyle : dad jokes ? really ? i expected more of you . mariah : i 'm sorry , are you afraid that i 'm gon na catch a glimpse of some super - secret jabot files and air them all over `` gc buzz `` ? kyle : nope . 'cause you 're too good a friend , and know how to keep a secret . mariah : that is the best compliment i 've received today . and you know what ? i 'm gon na take it . kyle : mm . mariah : heh . kyle : what 's new in your world ? mariah : um , not much , actually . well , tessa 's got an interview at a new restaurant with this up - and - coming chef . i wonder if you 've heard of it . kyle : you know , i actually have heard something about that . [ mariah chuckles ] i also hear this particular chef has an incredible boyfriend . mariah : really ? kyle : so she 's definitely got good taste in people . [ both laugh ] tessa 's a shoo - in . mariah : i really hope you 're right . kyle : are you kidding ? she 's the best barista your mom ever hired . practically had my coffee waiting for me before i could order it . mariah : it 's crazy how everything is falling into place for lola . first the food truck , then the pop - up , and now this restaurant with abby and devon . kyle : [ sighs ] she put in a lot of hard work to get this far . and she 's got a lot more to go . mariah : you do n't sound too enthused about that . kyle : eh . it 's nothing . mariah : [ scoffs ] which means it 's definitely something , so spill . kyle : it 's like ... her love for cooking and i are always competing for her time . mariah : well , it is her first love , kyle . kyle : yeah , but i -- mariah : and the next time you have a big project or a massive deadline , she 's gon na be the one missing you . you have to face it -- you guys both have careers that are very demanding . just means that you have to work harder to make the time that you do spend together special . kyle : [ sighs ] we 're trying . she managed to fit me into her schedule the last couple nights . mariah : so why so glum ? kyle : it 's like we 're not connecting like we used to . maybe we 're coming off the high of being in a new relationship . maybe she 's preoccupied . mariah : maybe you are . kyle : what do you mean ? mariah : well , i 'm just gon na go out on a limb here , but is it a coincidence that you 're feeling a lack of connection with lola the same week that summer comes back into town ? nick : thanks for coming by . michael : [ scoffs ] of course i was gon na come by . you said you found actual evidence that somebody 's framing victor . i have to see this with my own eyes . so . how 'd you find it ? nick : this is gon na sound crazy . michael : i 'm a lawyer . i swim in a sea of crazy . nick : yesterday , while katie was at my parents ' house , she got lost . michael : lost in the house ? nick : in the walls . michael : uh - huh . oh , really ? oh . but , uh , how 'd she get there ? nick : we 're not sure . i told you it was gon na be crazy . michael : yeah , well , you did not disappoint . nick : once we opened the walls , we found in there some surveillance equipment . somebody has been in there spying on my family for i do n't know how long . here 's the thing -- for a while , katie 's been saying that she 's been playing at the ranch with her `` friend . `` now , we all assumed that this was just her imagination . michael : did she describe this friend ? nick : just a man dressed in black . now , whoever this is is the same person who took one of dad 's guns and put the bloody shirt in the stables . michael : maybe the same person who murdered j.t . nick : i do n't think anyone murdered j.t . , michael . i think the intruder is j.t . additional sponsorship kyle : [ sighs ] i told you , what is going on with lola and i has nothing to do with summer . nothing . at all . mariah : how did you find out that summer was back in town ? did she have herself hand - delivered to your office ? did she roll in like cleopatra ? kyle : no . & mariah : but , i mean , practically , right ? this is summer we 're talking about . so , what did she want ? kyle : uh -- mariah : actually , let me rephrase . what did she say she wanted ? kyle : to let me know that she had grown up while in dubai , that she was going to respect my boundaries . mariah : hmm . kyle : what ? mariah : oh , nothing . that 's usually something tyrants say before they conquer a country . kyle : i 've been conquered . [ sighs ] by lola . mariah : do you really think that summer cares ? has she seen you two together ? kyle : yeah , at the club the other night . mariah : okay . details ? kyle : it was nothing . she had a date with fen . they sat at the bar , 10 feet away , and before they had their first drink , they were eating each other 's faces . mariah : so you had no choice but to look . kyle : bingo . mariah : but you did the mature thing that all people in committed relationship do and you ignored her , right ? right ? summer : well , i put it all out there three months ago and told kyle how i felt . phyllis : how 'd that go over ? summer : like a lead balloon . and now he refuses to spend any time with me , because apparently it would n't be `` appropriate . `` phyllis : now i know why you were dead - set on going halfway around the world to work for victor . summer : you know , i was in a country full of strangers , and never felt as lonely as i do here . phyllis : you know , fen 's back in town . summer : yeah , i know . we went out the other night . phyllis : date ? summer : he thought so . phyllis : oh . well , you know , you could always hang out with your mom . summer : thank you , but ... well ... phyllis : am i not lit enough to be # fam ? summer : wha -- what ? phyllis : did i just make you super cringey ? summer : [ laughs ] like , off - the - charts cringey , yes . [ chuckles ] i love you , but please never say words like that ever again . phyllis : okay . do you have any idea how much i missed you while you were gone ? i want us to hang out , okay ? i want to grab a movie , get some dinner , just overdose on quality time . summer : okay , i completely ruined everything between you and billy . i was a totally selfish brat . i mean , there is no way that you could ever completely forgive me for any of that . is there ? abby : good , you 're here . can you help me ? lend a hand , please ? lola : what 's all this ? abby : this is , before we start interviewing potential new waiters , i want to make sure that we 're on the same page about what and who we are looking for . lola : okay ... abby : so . we want our guests to have a different experience than a typical night out at a standard restaurant . they are leaving their humdrum routines and putting their hopes and dreams for a transformative night in our hands . we want our waitstaff to be friendly . [ chuckles ] they have to have an amazing palate to give amazing recommendations , be passionate about the food that we are serving . [ chuckles ] they have to know our guests -- who they are , what they want , what they 're looking for -- and remember them when they come back -- and give them something that they never expected . and what they wear has to be a reflection of that . it has to stand out . lola : definitely . clean , exciting , and one - of - a - kind . abby : precisely . so ... what do you think of these ? lola : i love them ! they do n't even look like uniforms . abby : right ? it 's sexy , exciting , unforgettable . lola : like my food . abby : what i was thinking , yes . and we want our waitstaff to connect with that aesthetic . lola : you know , that 's your thing , because i just need qualified , reliable workers with great people skills . abby : who can give an exceptional experience . lola : great minds . abby : i knew we 'd make an amazing team . [ laughs ] lola : you know , as long as these , uh , super - chic outfits are for the front of the house and not the kitchen staff , we 're all good . abby : mm . i do n't know . i think our chef would turn some heads in this . lola : are you kidding ? your fiancé would never let me out of the house in that . not even for a date . abby : okay , well , then , we will find something that works for you , our restaurant , and the thousands of people who will beat a path to our doors . the joy is in the journey . lola : bon voyage . abby : [ chuckles ] cheers . lola : cheers . mmm ! phyllis : have i [ sighs ] said or done anything to make you feel like i have a grudge ? summer : no , i -- i tried to steal your boyfriend . i just do n't -- i do n't know how you can just let that go . phyllis : i may not like everything you do . but my love for you is unbreakable . no matter what . and you 're gon na understand that one day when you 're a mom . summer : no . god , no . do not wish that on me . phyllis : everything is working out for the best . uh , your dad and i are happy . life is good . summer : and billy is out of your system ? phyllis : you know , it 's a -- it 's a funny thing . when you take a step back from a person , you finally get clarity . summer : so that 's a yes ? phyllis : you know , we are managing to work together , and that 's a minor miracle . but that is as far as it goes . summer : yeah , i mean , i guess forgiving him would n't really change anything , anyway , since there 's no way billy will ever forgive you for cheating on him with dad . phyllis : [ inhales sharply ] life moves on . but , um ... you know , i - i am happy , but there is maybe one thing that would actually make me happier . i would really like you back in my life . summer : okay , well , with your frenzied social calendar , how are you ever gon na fit me in ? phyllis : well , nothing is more important than you , okay ? and i have to get that -- more of a -- a work / life balance , okay ? what do you say we do a mani / pedi night with a movie marathon ? how 's that sound ? summer : like you think i 'm still 12 . phyllis : you will always be my little girl . okay ? you 're gon na have to get used to it , okay , kid ? mariah : oh , we have a tessa update . she says that there are about a half a million people there . [ snorts ] she tends to exaggerate when she 's nervous . and they have n't called her in for an interview yet . `` namaste , baby . you got this . i love you . `` kyle : you guys are good together . mariah : yeah . we are . now stop trying to change the subject . kyle : was i ? mariah : yeah , 'cause you were in the middle of talking about how irresistible summer is . kyle : way to twist my words . what i said is , summer was distracting . she was making out with fen . like right in front of me . what was i supposed to do ? mariah : pay the bill . go home with your gorgeous girlfriend . get another table . kyle : there will never be anything between us . not romantically , not platonically . mariah : not sexually ? kyle , the girl puts on a slinky dress , she does a hair flip , she sashays across a room , and you ca n't take your eyes off of her . you think that lola does n't notice something like that ? and then what ? you waste your precious time talking about it . or worse , you do n't talk about it , and then your night turns into a five - hour summer consumption . kyle : it was 90 minutes . and summer came up once . maybe twice . and lola knows summer 's no threat to her . mariah : of course lola is gon na be threatened by her boyfriend 's ex hanging around . especially since you two haven't ... wait . please tell me -- please , please tell me you have not told summer that lola is a virgin . kyle : of course not . but that 's not the problem i was talking about . mariah : well , you were talking about a lack of connection . kyle : emotionally . because her head is in her job right now . mariah : okay . fine . but you 're really gon na sit there and tell me that you do n't miss it ? you know , the physical aspect of a relationship ? kyle : of course i miss it . but that 's not the issue here . and why are you assuming it is ? just because i 'm a guy ? i 'm fine without sex . totally fine . could n't be better . michael : this equipment was found where ? nick : the crawl space . i 'm hoping you can take this , maybe get some , uh , dna or fingerprints off it , use the serial numbers to figure out who this intruder is . michael : yeah , yeah , yeah . i 'll get it all checked out . who else knows about this ? nick : my parents , billy , vick . i told phyllis , and now you -- michael : whoa ! phyllis ? are you sure about that ? considering ? nick : she did n't originally think my dad was being framed , but she does now . i 'm hoping , with all this evidence , you can convince the d.a . now to -- michael : [ sighs ] i know you think whoever planted the false evidence in the stables is spying on your parents , but i 'm not sure christine will see it that cut - and - dry . nick : she will if we can prove it 's j.t . look , he knows how to get past the guards . he knows where all the blind spots are on the cameras . he knows the layout of the ranch . he knows exactly where my dad keeps his guns . it would be so easy for him to steal on , put it in the stables . take off one of his shirts , throw some blood on it ... [ clicks tongue ] michael : how do you explain the dna they found in chancellor park ? nick : he would n't be the first person to fake his own death . michael : well , you 've got a point there . look , i will get this to a lab and let you know if they find anything . nick : thanks . michael : even without all this evidence , there 's a good chance i can get the charges against victor dropped . i mean , christine is n't exactly chasing down the judge to set a trial date . nick : yeah , i heard about that . just getting the charges dropped is no longer good enough . whoever is doing this has been in my parents ' home spying on them . they need to be stopped . kyle : if you 'll excuse me , i have a deadline . mariah : kyle , i did n't mean to make it sound like you 're this guy who has nothing but sex on the brain . kyle : thank you . mariah : i just meant that you and summer have a lot of history . inside jokes . you know , she knows the way you like your coffee . she 's been there for stupid mistakes , bad decisions . and i also know how hard it is to turn your back on somebody like that , even after they 've left scars . but i am telling you , she 's gon na use that closeness against you . kyle : [ sighs ] part of me says , `` shut her down . shut her out . you owe her nothing . `` mariah : yes . that is the part that you listen to . that other voice , the voice that is trying to convince you that you can have it both ways , that says , `` summer 's nice . she could be my bud `` -- no ! that girl is the devil in a new dress . so that other voice , it 's a relationship killer . kyle : i do n't need summer in my life . mariah : exactly . kyle : i have lola . mariah : and she 's smart and talented , ambitious . she could have pretty much any guy in town , but she chose you . why ? kyle : because i respect her and value her . she makes me laugh . she makes me want to be the man she deserves . mariah : and you 're going to do anything to prove to her that she has yours , right ? kyle : every day in every way . mariah : good . [ both chuckle ] kyle : i love lola . i love what we have together . i 'm not gon na blow it . mariah : well , i am very glad to hear that . but should you need someone to talk to if you need anything , or if you think you 're gon na do something stupid ... kyle : i 've got you on speed - dial . mariah : great . and i will come right over and knock some sense into you , free of charge . kyle : mm . you 'd do that for me ? mariah : mm - hmm . i would . because what are friends for ? i mean , especially after all the times that you talked me off the ledge with tessa . kyle : have n't got any of those s.o.s . calls lately . mariah : no . we 're very good . kyle : yeah ? mariah : yeah . i mean , she 's a little stressed out because of not having a job , but i have got my fingers crossed . abby : tessa , hi . tessa : hi . lola : hey . it 's good to see you . tessa : looks like you guys have half of gc out there . abby : [ chuckles ] lola : crazy , right ? tessa : yeah , it 's like a cattle call for a fashion show . ooh , speaking of , is this what the staff will be wearing ? lola : some of them , yes . tessa : may i ? abby : oh , be our guest . tessa : okay . oh , wow . this clothing is , like , out of a glossy magazine . yet designed for work . it 's familiar and flirty . yet smart and fresh . abby : exactly what we 're looking for in our waiters . hey , please , sit down . tessa : oh , yeah . abby : let 's talk . tessa : uh - huh . lola : so , how do you see yourself fitting in our team ? tessa : well , as you know , i 've worked in the service industry before , and from my experience at crimson lights , i 'd say i 'm a people person . i like to do whatever i can to make someone 's day brighter . abby : what do you like about being a waitress ? tessa : the customers . you get new ones walking in the door constantly , so it makes every day different . special . and if your menu is anything like your pop - up or your truck , i 'm guessing it 'll change with the seasons ? lola : exactly . tessa was one of my most loyal customers . tessa : and i remember back when having a restaurant was just a dream . and i can tell from the vision board and the uniforms and knowing lola the way that i do [ chuckles ] that this is n't just a business concept . it 's a labor of love . you guys are putting your hearts and souls into it , and i would be so honored to help make this dream come true . lola : well , that 's exactly what we 're looking for . abby : just one more question . tessa : mm - hmm . abby : why did you stop working at crimson lights ? `` the young and the restless `` will continue . mariah : all right . i ordered something sweet . that way , if it 's good news , we can celebrate , and if it 's bad news , we get to eat our feelings . tessa : okay . it 's no news , but that 's supposed to be good news , right ? mariah : i do n't know . how did it go ? tessa : great . i mean ... at first . okay , well , we were all sitting there , and it could n't have been going better . i mean , they 're telling me about the plans for the restaurant , and i 'm thinking , `` oh , i really want this job . `` i mean , with lola 's food and abby 's attention to fashion and detail , i can tell that it would be an amazing place to work . mariah : okay . so far , so good . tessa : until the end . mariah : what happened ? tessa : they asked me why i left my job here . mariah : and what did you tell them ? tessa : well , i did n't tell them that i got booted for blackmailing the owner . mariah : yeah , no , that would have been bad . tessa : yeah . so i told them that i had gone as far as i could as a barista , and i 'm seeking other opportunities . mariah : okay , so , what happens now ? tessa : they 'll probably call sharon for a reference , and then that will be the end . mariah : it 's not like sharon can come clean , either . tessa : yeah , but she wo n't have to . i mean , her disdain and dislike will shine through no matter what story she cobbles together . so . another job bites the dust . mariah : please do n't give up yet . tessa : i 'm not . i 'm being real . no matter what i do , my past will come back to haunt me . karma . and , you know , it 's not like i 'm asking , heh , for the perfect job . i 'm not asking for a million dollars . i 'm just asking for something small to make me feel human again . mariah : then that 's what you 're gon na get . tessa : how do you know ? mariah : let 's just say i believe in happy beginnings . but ... there 's someplace that i have to be right now . tessa : okay . where ? mariah : would you believe me if i told you i was going to see a fairy godmother ? save some cake for me . summer : oh , wow . fen looks amazing . kyle : [ sighs ] summer : and i thought it was me that you could n't keep your eyes off at the club the other night . who knew that we had the same taste in guys ? oh , poor lola . she 's always the last to know . kyle : [ snorts softly ] really ? that 's the best you got ? summer : oh , no . i can -- i can try again . you both know how much i love a challenge . kyle : oh . [ scoffs ] it 's work , okay ? your mother hired fen to model for the new young men 's clothing line for fenmore 's . summer : oh . i thought she hired you to model , too . oh , which means ... there 's got to be some hot shots of you on here , too . kyle : summer -- summer : no , no , no . i will be gentle . aww . oh . well , well , well . what do we have here ? man , my mother really is a genius , 'cause fenmore 's is gon na sell out of -- i mean , i do n't -- whatever it is you 're promoting here . kyle : clothing . summer : oh . well , too bad it 's not an ad for birthday suit . kyle : [ snorts ] summer : i 'm sorry . that was -- that was out of bounds . kyle : [ sighs ] do n't sweat it . summer : are you sure we 're even allowed to be sitting at the same table right now ? i mean , her big brother 's not gon na dust you for fingerprints later ? kyle : very funny . summer : i just think it would be easier if you sent me over a list of all of lola 's rules . you know , how many feet we 're supposed to stand apart , what topics we 're not allowed to discuss . kyle : there 's one rule , and it 's mine -- my relationship with lola , what she and i have , it comes first . summer : oh , well , that 's sweet . but what about our friendship , kyle ? what , are you gon na schedule a lobotomy so you can forget all about me ? kyle : we 'll always be friends , summer . summer : right , no , just the friends who have to keep a respectable distance from each other . kyle : [ scoffs ] something like that . summer : [ scoffs ] do you even care about me at all anymore ? kyle : as much as i care about any of my old friends . summer : okay . so the other night at the club , when you just could n't keep your eyes off of me , is that the kind of friendship we 're gon na have ? you can look but you ca n't touch ? kyle : summer . summer : what ? kyle : don't . summer : no , i mean , all i 'm saying is , if you were mine , you could have all the friends in the world , kyle . kyle : well , we do n't have to worry about that , do we ? 'cause i 'm with lola . summer : got it . you know ... i really should thank you . if it were n't for you dumping me , then i would have never noticed how much fen has changed . kyle : changed how ? summer : well , not just physically , obviously . but he could have stayed in law school , gotten a corporate job , done the daily grind , followed in his father 's footsteps . but no . he risked it all and gave up everything for a singing career . it takes guts to blaze your own path . and , i mean , i get it . i dropped everything to hop on a jet and start over in dubai . where i had lots of adventures , mind you . i went skiing in the desert . i went on a photo safari . and , of course , there was lots of shopping . kyle : fascinating . summer : kind of makes me pity those poor saps who 've already settled down that are my age . day in , day out -- same old grind . kyle : [ sighs ] like me ? summer : i 'm not pointing any fingers here . i am just saying that there are some people who seem positively middle - aged , tied down , blinders on , afraid to taste all of the adventures that life has to offer . kyle : mm - hmm . summer : oh . [ gasps ] wow . kyle : what ? summer : nothing . kyle : fen again ? summer : you know , i am going to need a poster - sized copy of this for my wall . it takes my breath away . lola : bye . thank you . abby : that went a lot better than i thought it would . lola : yeah , once things got rolling , i think we got a lot of good prospects . abby : yeah . mariah : great . you guys are still here . abby : mariah , hi . looking for a little side hustle ? [ chuckles ] mariah : no . uh , not yet . but you never know . actually , i 'm here because of tessa . lola : is there a problem ? mariah : well , she said that you guys wanted to know why she 's no longer at crimson lights , and the truth is , it 's because of me . abby : how do you mean ? please , have a seat . mariah : well , my mother fired her because she does n't want us to be together . i guess she thought if she 's out of the coffeehouse , she 's out of my life . but the truth is , tessa is the best barista that they 've had there in ages . she never forgets a face , she never forgets a special order . she is a consummate professional . she 's reliable , and ... i do n't know . i think she would be a great asset to the team you 're trying to build . lola : that 's why she seemed worried when we asked her about it . abby : i know from experience how overprotective parents can be . lola : and brothers . [ abby and mariah chuckle ] abby : there 's a fine line between mothering and smothering . but we like tessa . lola : yeah , a lot . abby : i guess maybe we should scoop her up before somebody else does ? mariah : does that mean what i think it means ? abby : the job is hers if she wants it . mariah : yes ! great ! oh , my gosh . abby : but do you want to tell her in person , or ... ? mariah : you took the words right out of my mouth . thank you ! thank you . thank you so much . this is just -- thank you . i 'm gon na go . [ all chuckle ] thank you . abby : bye . yeah . lola : bye . abby : we can move her from `` maybe `` to `` definitely . `` lola : [ sighs ] your engagement ring is so beautiful . abby : it is , is n't it ? i ca n't get over it . it gives me butterflies every time i look at it . lola : who knew arturo had such good taste in jewelry ? abby : right ? it 's exactly what i wanted . i mean , i did n't even know we were in the place to drop hints about rings that i wanted . lola : wait , that 's a thing ? abby : of course it 's a thing . yeah , the -- the size of the diamond , the cut , the setting , the -- the metal . do n't worry . when that times comes , just let me know what your dream engagement ring is , and i will make sure that kyle gets the message . lola : oh . no , no . kyle and i are ... nowhere close to that . abby : yet . well , is it because you have n't been dating that long , or is it something else ? lola : we 're kind of in a holding pattern until the restaurant is up and running . abby : how 's kyle taking it ? lola : he says he understands , and he 's been very supportive and patient and loving . but we do miss spending time together like we 're used to . abby : i 'm sorry . lola : no . it 's not like it 's forever . abby : okay , but what 's gon na happen when the restaurant opens and you 're there every night ? you do n't think that 's gon na be a problem for you guys , do you ? lola : [ scoffs ] speaking about problems , did you know that summer 's back in town ? summer : i talked to fen , and he said to please e - mail him those photos . kyle : `` a `` -- they are property of fenmore 's . they are not for distribution . `` b `` -- fen is not my superior in any way . ergo , i do not take orders from him . summer : okay , so , just please copy me on those photos . but only the ones of fen . 'cause if lola found out that i had half - nude photos of you , she would never forgive us . kyle : there is no `` us . `` and she has nothing to worry about . summer : fine . whatever you say . [ cellphone chimes ] oh , let me guess . it 's lola checking in on you . kyle : it 's work . summer : mm - hmm . kyle : and do n't you have a new job at newman ? should n't you be there ? summer : no , because victoria has n't figured out what to do with me yet . kyle : mm . join the club . hey ! summer : no . you get back to what you were doing . i will tell lola that you 're busy . kyle : give me the phone . summer : hey , if she does n't care about me , then she wo n't care that we 're together . kyle : [ sighs ] summer : wait . what do we have here ? nothing . [ scoffs ] literally no texts from lola for days and days . kyle : the phone , summer . summer : no texts since the night that i ran into you guys at the club . is there trouble in paradise , kyle ? did you two have a lovers ' spat about little ol ' me ? nick : michael 's taking all the equipment to the lab to get tested . phyllis : what about your theory that the intruder is j.t . ? nick : he is skeptical , like you . phyllis : i 'm beyond skeptical . i was there when he died . i helped bury the body . nick : it 's not exactly information i could share with michael . phyllis : well , i hope i am proved wrong . you know , i -- [ sighs ] if we can show that j.t . is not dead , i mean , that means no one is going to trial for murder . nick : that 's a big if . phyllis : yeah . nick : if he is still alive ... phyllis : heaven help us . 'cause he 's gon na be hell - bent on revenge . [ cellphone rings ] nick : that 's michael . hey , bud . give me some good news . what do you got ? mariah : you better quit eating like that , or you 're not gon na be able to fit into your new uniform . i 'm kidding about -- about the eating part . tessa : what new uniform ? mariah : at lola 's restaurant . tessa : shut . up . are you serious ? mariah : you got the job . tessa : i got the job ? mariah : you got the job . i begged abby and lola to let me deliver the news . tessa : oh , my god . oh , my god ! happy dance ! oh , my god ! yes ! mariah : oh , my gosh . it 's been a long time since i 've seen the happy dance . tessa : i 'd forgotten what this feels like . me , having a job . best day ever . thank you . mariah : you did this all on your own . tessa : and the best part , the most incredible part , is that i get to share this with you . lola : i already know what you 're going to say . abby : oh , do tell . lola : you 're going to tell me not to worry about summer . abby : not even close . you should absolutely worry about summer . lola : [ sighs ] abby : when she sees something that she wants , she is relentless . lola : i mean , she 's been back , like , what , a week maybe , and she is in every single conversation . if we 're not talking to summer , we 're talking about her . she 's , like , lurking in the back of our minds , the bitterness on the tip of our tongues . abby : do you remember , after the jaboutiques launch , when you came over to try to convince me to give arturo another chance ? you compared mia to summer . lola : did i ? abby : some people , they 're like fire . they consume everything in their path . they do n't care what they damage . they want what they want , and they just destroy the rest . lola : well , what are we supposed to do ? abby : i see that we have two options . we either sit back and let them take control -- lola : no . that 's not an option . abby : then i say it 's time to put out the fire . kyle : not everyone has as much free time as you do . lola 's been busy all day . summer : oh . poor little cinderella . washing dishes , sweating over the hot stove , giving 100 % to the 1 % . kyle : mm . she 's interviewing waitstaff for her new restaurant . that 's why she 's been out of touch . summer : yeah ? yesterday too ? kyle : we were together at my place yesterday . not that it 's any of your business . summer : it 's not . kyle : just like whatever you 're up to with fen is n't any of ours . so feel free to do what you like and keep it to yourself . it has zero impact on me and lola . summer : kyle , i know you better than anyone else . and i can tell that something has got you wound up . kyle : well , it sure is n't you . summer : no , but you 're dying to tell me what it is , because deep down , you know that i am the only one who will understand . kyle : [ sighs ] wishful thinking . summer : all right . i can wait . and , uh , when you 're ready to share ... you know where to find me . phyllis : what did michael say about the evidence ? did they finish testing it ? nick : his guy at the lab could n't pull any dna or fingerprints . phyllis : so now what ? nick : he 's gon na send a tech out to the ranch to see what they can find there , but if they could n't get any dna off of the equipment , they 're not gon na find anything at the crime scene . whoever 's doing this is being very cautious . phyllis : maybe they wanted or expected us to find their hiding place . they could have lured katie behind the walls on purpose . nick : you mean just to rub it in that they 've been watching us this whole time ? phyllis : so ? i mean , that 's just like the fire poker and the clothes that were left on nikki 's bed . they 're taunting us . nick : how do we prove this person even exists ? without dna or fingerprints , the police are just gon na think we came up with this crazy cover story . phyllis : yeah . back to square one . nick : do you think this is somebody who 's close to us ? somebody who knows the intimate details of our lives ? phyllis : i do n't like what you 're saying . who do you think it could be ? nick : i do n't know . but i 'm gon na find out . and when i do , he 's going down . | mariah helps tessa get a job in abby and lola 's new resturant by telling abby and lola that the reason that sharon let her go from crimson lights is because sharon does n't want her and tessa to be together . tessa is thrilled about getting the job and she and mariah celebrate by eating cake . nick tells michael about his suspicion that jt is alive and trying to frame victor niick also tells michael about katie 's not so imaginary friend and asks him to take the security cameras to a lab to get tested for fingerprints so they can finally catch the person that is trying to frame victor .. mariah tells kyle has to work to keep his relationship with lola and not let summer distract him . phyllis tells kyle that the pictures from the photo shoot turned out great . summer figures out that there are problems in kyle and lola 's relationship so continues to talk about fen and how much he has changed so that she can make kyle jealous . abby warns lola not to letr her guard down with summer because she wants kyle and she wo n't stop until she gets him . | <s>[INST] [ previously_on ] nick : [ sighs ] we 're talking about multiple video screens , each with their own audio feed . full - blown surveillance of the entire house . kyle : i do n't want to see you get hurt . summer : well , i 'm a big girl , so i can handle myself . kyle : yeah , that 's what you said about billy . lola : i ca n't tell if you 're trying to convince me that we 're good , or that you 're trying to convince yourself that summer ca n't get to you . lauren : did n't you get the text that our models got stuck in new york ? i found the perfect replacement for -- well , now you only have to find one . fen : apparently being a hot recording star is a real turn - on . just ask summer . kyle : okay . anything else ? phyllis : the photographer uploaded the photos from your shoot . kyle : yeah ? what 's the verdict ? how bad are they ? using you [ sighs ] to replace the no - show model was probably the worst decision i have ever made . kyle : that bad , huh ? phyllis : that good . now i have to worry about modeling agencies poaching my hardest working team member . kyle : [ chuckles ] do n't forget i have a back - up plan when it 's time to renegotiate my contract . phyllis : i am sending you a file , uh , with some changes that need to be made and whatever needs to be fixed . uh , if you can get those edits back to me fast , that would be great . thank you so much , kyle . fantastic job . okay . bye- bye . hi . summer : hi . phyllis : what brings you by ? summer : oh , just thought you could use your mid - morning caffeine rush . phyllis : bless you . summer : uh , so , that was kyle ? phyllis : mm - hmm . he 's editing some photos from our latest campaign . no news from newman ? summer : no . victoria has n't figured out what projects i 'm working on yet , so i 've got a lot of time on my hands . phyllis : honey , be grateful , you know ? because when they start piling on the work , that 's when fun time is over . get together with some of your friends . summer : uh , and those would be ... ? phyllis : the ones you hang with , eat with , play with . summer : all right . and that would be none . phyllis : really ? what about kyle ? were n't you guys getting tight before you left for dubai ? summer : uh , well , if , uh , things were weird before , they are just downright awkward now . phyllis : how so ? summer : when i was fixated on billy , kyle could n't get enough of me . and i would barely give him the time of day . after billy , i guess i had this rude awakening that kyle was the one that i should have been with all this time . you know , he gets me . he 's never tried to change me or fix me , and he 's always there . no matter what . but by the time i realized that there could be anything real between us , he already found lola . kyle : [ sighs ] mariah : working hard or hardly working ? kyle : dad jokes ? really ? i expected more of you . mariah : i 'm sorry , are you afraid that i 'm gon na catch a glimpse of some super - secret jabot files and air them all over `` gc buzz `` ? kyle : nope . 'cause you 're too good a friend , and know how to keep a secret . mariah : that is the best compliment i 've received today . and you know what ? i 'm gon na take it . kyle : mm . mariah : heh . kyle : what 's new in your world ? mariah : um , not much , actually . well , tessa 's got an interview at a new restaurant with this up - and - coming chef . i wonder if you 've heard of it . kyle : you know , i actually have heard something about that . [ mariah chuckles ] i also hear this particular chef has an incredible boyfriend . mariah : really ? kyle : so she 's definitely got good taste in people . [ both laugh ] tessa 's a shoo - in . mariah : i really hope you 're right . kyle : are you kidding ? she 's the best barista your mom ever hired . practically had my coffee waiting for me before i could order it . mariah : it 's crazy how everything is falling into place for lola . first the food truck , then the pop - up , and now this restaurant with abby and devon . kyle : [ sighs ] she put in a lot of hard work to get this far . and she 's got a lot more to go . mariah : you do n't sound too enthused about that . kyle : eh . it 's nothing . mariah : [ scoffs ] which means it 's definitely something , so spill . kyle : it 's like ... her love for cooking and i are always competing for her time . mariah : well , it is her first love , kyle . kyle : yeah , but i -- mariah : and the next time you have a big project or a massive deadline , she 's gon na be the one missing you . you have to face it -- you guys both have careers that are very demanding . just means that you have to work harder to make the time that you do spend together special . kyle : [ sighs ] we 're trying . she managed to fit me into her schedule the last couple nights . mariah : so why so glum ? kyle : it 's like we 're not connecting like we used to . maybe we 're coming off the high of being in a new relationship . maybe she 's preoccupied . mariah : maybe you are . kyle : what do you mean ? mariah : well , i 'm just gon na go out on a limb here , but is it a coincidence that you 're feeling a lack of connection with lola the same week that summer comes back into town ? nick : thanks for coming by . michael : [ scoffs ] of course i was gon na come by . you said you found actual evidence that somebody 's framing victor . i have to see this with my own eyes . so . how 'd you find it ? nick : this is gon na sound crazy . michael : i 'm a lawyer . i swim in a sea of crazy . nick : yesterday , while katie was at my parents ' house , she got lost . michael : lost in the house ? nick : in the walls . michael : uh - huh . oh , really ? oh . but , uh , how 'd she get there ? nick : we 're not sure . i told you it was gon na be crazy . michael : yeah , well , you did not disappoint . nick : once we opened the walls , we found in there some surveillance equipment . somebody has been in there spying on my family for i do n't know how long . here 's the thing -- for a while , katie 's been saying that she 's been playing at the ranch with her `` friend . `` now , we all assumed that this was just her imagination . michael : did she describe this friend ? nick : just a man dressed in black . now , whoever this is is the same person who took one of dad 's guns and put the bloody shirt in the stables . michael : maybe the same person who murdered j.t . nick : i do n't think anyone murdered j.t . , michael . i think the intruder is j.t . additional sponsorship kyle : [ sighs ] i told you , what is going on with lola and i has nothing to do with summer . nothing . at all . mariah : how did you find out that summer was back in town ? did she have herself hand - delivered to your office ? did she roll in like cleopatra ? kyle : no . & mariah : but , i mean , practically , right ? this is summer we 're talking about . so , what did she want ? kyle : uh -- mariah : actually , let me rephrase . what did she say she wanted ? kyle : to let me know that she had grown up while in dubai , that she was going to respect my boundaries . mariah : hmm . kyle : what ? mariah : oh , nothing . that 's usually something tyrants say before they conquer a country . kyle : i 've been conquered . [ sighs ] by lola . mariah : do you really think that summer cares ? has she seen you two together ? kyle : yeah , at the club the other night . mariah : okay . details ? kyle : it was nothing . she had a date with fen . they sat at the bar , 10 feet away , and before they had their first drink , they were eating each other 's faces . mariah : so you had no choice but to look . kyle : bingo . mariah : but you did the mature thing that all people in committed relationship do and you ignored her , right ? right ? summer : well , i put it all out there three months ago and told kyle how i felt . phyllis : how 'd that go over ? summer : like a lead balloon . and now he refuses to spend any time with me , because apparently it would n't be `` appropriate . `` phyllis : now i know why you were dead - set on going halfway around the world to work for victor . summer : you know , i was in a country full of strangers , and never felt as lonely as i do here . phyllis : you know , fen 's back in town . summer : yeah , i know . we went out the other night . phyllis : date ? summer : he thought so . phyllis : oh . well , you know , you could always hang out with your mom . summer : thank you , but ... well ... phyllis : am i not lit enough to be # fam ? summer : wha -- what ? phyllis : did i just make you super cringey ? summer : [ laughs ] like , off - the - charts cringey , yes . [ chuckles ] i love you , but please never say words like that ever again . phyllis : okay . do you have any idea how much i missed you while you were gone ? i want us to hang out , okay ? i want to grab a movie , get some dinner , just overdose on quality time . summer : okay , i completely ruined everything between you and billy . i was a totally selfish brat . i mean , there is no way that you could ever completely forgive me for any of that . is there ? abby : good , you 're here . can you help me ? lend a hand , please ? lola : what 's all this ? abby : this is , before we start interviewing potential new waiters , i want to make sure that we 're on the same page about what and who we are looking for . lola : okay ... abby : so . we want our guests to have a different experience than a typical night out at a standard restaurant . they are leaving their humdrum routines and putting their hopes and dreams for a transformative night in our hands . we want our waitstaff to be friendly . [ chuckles ] they have to have an amazing palate to give amazing recommendations , be passionate about the food that we are serving . [ chuckles ] they have to know our guests -- who they are , what they want , what they 're looking for -- and remember them when they come back -- and give them something that they never expected . and what they wear has to be a reflection of that . it has to stand out . lola : definitely . clean , exciting , and one - of - a - kind . abby : precisely . so ... what do you think of these ? lola : i love them ! they do n't even look like uniforms . abby : right ? it 's sexy , exciting , unforgettable . lola : like my food . abby : what i was thinking , yes . and we want our waitstaff to connect with that aesthetic . lola : you know , that 's your thing , because i just need qualified , reliable workers with great people skills . abby : who can give an exceptional experience . lola : great minds . abby : i knew we 'd make an amazing team . [ laughs ] lola : you know , as long as these , uh , super - chic outfits are for the front of the house and not the kitchen staff , we 're all good . abby : mm . i do n't know . i think our chef would turn some heads in this . lola : are you kidding ? your fiancé would never let me out of the house in that . not even for a date . abby : okay , well , then , we will find something that works for you , our restaurant , and the thousands of people who will beat a path to our doors . the joy is in the journey . lola : bon voyage . abby : [ chuckles ] cheers . lola : cheers . mmm ! phyllis : have i [ sighs ] said or done anything to make you feel like i have a grudge ? summer : no , i -- i tried to steal your boyfriend . i just do n't -- i do n't know how you can just let that go . phyllis : i may not like everything you do . but my love for you is unbreakable . no matter what . and you 're gon na understand that one day when you 're a mom . summer : no . god , no . do not wish that on me . phyllis : everything is working out for the best . uh , your dad and i are happy . life is good . summer : and billy is out of your system ? phyllis : you know , it 's a -- it 's a funny thing . when you take a step back from a person , you finally get clarity . summer : so that 's a yes ? phyllis : you know , we are managing to work together , and that 's a minor miracle . but that is as far as it goes . summer : yeah , i mean , i guess forgiving him would n't really change anything , anyway , since there 's no way billy will ever forgive you for cheating on him with dad . phyllis : [ inhales sharply ] life moves on . but , um ... you know , i - i am happy , but there is maybe one thing that would actually make me happier . i would really like you back in my life . summer : okay , well , with your frenzied social calendar , how are you ever gon na fit me in ? phyllis : well , nothing is more important than you , okay ? and i have to get that -- more of a -- a work / life balance , okay ? what do you say we do a mani / pedi night with a movie marathon ? how 's that sound ? summer : like you think i 'm still 12 . phyllis : you will always be my little girl . okay ? you 're gon na have to get used to it , okay , kid ? mariah : oh , we have a tessa update . she says that there are about a half a million people there . [ snorts ] she tends to exaggerate when she 's nervous . and they have n't called her in for an interview yet . `` namaste , baby . you got this . i love you . `` kyle : you guys are good together . mariah : yeah . we are . now stop trying to change the subject . kyle : was i ? mariah : yeah , 'cause you were in the middle of talking about how irresistible summer is . kyle : way to twist my words . what i said is , summer was distracting . she was making out with fen . like right in front of me . what was i supposed to do ? mariah : pay the bill . go home with your gorgeous girlfriend . get another table . kyle : there will never be anything between us . not romantically , not platonically . mariah : not sexually ? kyle , the girl puts on a slinky dress , she does a hair flip , she sashays across a room , and you ca n't take your eyes off of her . you think that lola does n't notice something like that ? and then what ? you waste your precious time talking about it . or worse , you do n't talk about it , and then your night turns into a five - hour summer consumption . kyle : it was 90 minutes . and summer came up once . maybe twice . and lola knows summer 's no threat to her . mariah : of course lola is gon na be threatened by her boyfriend 's ex hanging around . especially since you two haven't ... wait . please tell me -- please , please tell me you have not told summer that lola is a virgin . kyle : of course not . but that 's not the problem i was talking about . mariah : well , you were talking about a lack of connection . kyle : emotionally . because her head is in her job right now . mariah : okay . fine . but you 're really gon na sit there and tell me that you do n't miss it ? you know , the physical aspect of a relationship ? kyle : of course i miss it . but that 's not the issue here . and why are you assuming it is ? just because i 'm a guy ? i 'm fine without sex . totally fine . could n't be better . michael : this equipment was found where ? nick : the crawl space . i 'm hoping you can take this , maybe get some , uh , dna or fingerprints off it , use the serial numbers to figure out who this intruder is . michael : yeah , yeah , yeah . i 'll get it all checked out . who else knows about this ? nick : my parents , billy , vick . i told phyllis , and now you -- michael : whoa ! phyllis ? are you sure about that ? considering ? nick : she did n't originally think my dad was being framed , but she does now . i 'm hoping , with all this evidence , you can convince the d.a . now to -- michael : [ sighs ] i know you think whoever planted the false evidence in the stables is spying on your parents , but i 'm not sure christine will see it that cut - and - dry . nick : she will if we can prove it 's j.t . look , he knows how to get past the guards . he knows where all the blind spots are on the cameras . he knows the layout of the ranch . he knows exactly where my dad keeps his guns . it would be so easy for him to steal on , put it in the stables . take off one of his shirts , throw some blood on it ... [ clicks tongue ] michael : how do you explain the dna they found in chancellor park ? nick : he would n't be the first person to fake his own death . michael : well , you 've got a point there . look , i will get this to a lab and let you know if they find anything . nick : thanks . michael : even without all this evidence , there 's a good chance i can get the charges against victor dropped . i mean , christine is n't exactly chasing down the judge to set a trial date . nick : yeah , i heard about that . just getting the charges dropped is no longer good enough . whoever is doing this has been in my parents ' home spying on them . they need to be stopped . kyle : if you 'll excuse me , i have a deadline . mariah : kyle , i did n't mean to make it sound like you 're this guy who has nothing but sex on the brain . kyle : thank you . mariah : i just meant that you and summer have a lot of history . inside jokes . you know , she knows the way you like your coffee . she 's been there for stupid mistakes , bad decisions . and i also know how hard it is to turn your back on somebody like that , even after they 've left scars . but i am telling you , she 's gon na use that closeness against you . kyle : [ sighs ] part of me says , `` shut her down . shut her out . you owe her nothing . `` mariah : yes . that is the part that you listen to . that other voice , the voice that is trying to convince you that you can have it both ways , that says , `` summer 's nice . she could be my bud `` -- no ! that girl is the devil in a new dress . so that other voice , it 's a relationship killer . kyle : i do n't need summer in my life . mariah : exactly . kyle : i have lola . mariah : and she 's smart and talented , ambitious . she could have pretty much any guy in town , but she chose you . why ? kyle : because i respect her and value her . she makes me laugh . she makes me want to be the man she deserves . mariah : and you 're going to do anything to prove to her that she has yours , right ? kyle : every day in every way . mariah : good . [ both chuckle ] kyle : i love lola . i love what we have together . i 'm not gon na blow it . mariah : well , i am very glad to hear that . but should you need someone to talk to if you need anything , or if you think you 're gon na do something stupid ... kyle : i 've got you on speed - dial . mariah : great . and i will come right over and knock some sense into you , free of charge . kyle : mm . you 'd do that for me ? mariah : mm - hmm . i would . because what are friends for ? i mean , especially after all the times that you talked me off the ledge with tessa . kyle : have n't got any of those s.o.s . calls lately . mariah : no . we 're very good . kyle : yeah ? mariah : yeah . i mean , she 's a little stressed out because of not having a job , but i have got my fingers crossed . abby : tessa , hi . tessa : hi . lola : hey . it 's good to see you . tessa : looks like you guys have half of gc out there . abby : [ chuckles ] lola : crazy , right ? tessa : yeah , it 's like a cattle call for a fashion show . ooh , speaking of , is this what the staff will be wearing ? lola : some of them , yes . tessa : may i ? abby : oh , be our guest . tessa : okay . oh , wow . this clothing is , like , out of a glossy magazine . yet designed for work . it 's familiar and flirty . yet smart and fresh . abby : exactly what we 're looking for in our waiters . hey , please , sit down . tessa : oh , yeah . abby : let 's talk . tessa : uh - huh . lola : so , how do you see yourself fitting in our team ? tessa : well , as you know , i 've worked in the service industry before , and from my experience at crimson lights , i 'd say i 'm a people person . i like to do whatever i can to make someone 's day brighter . abby : what do you like about being a waitress ? tessa : the customers . you get new ones walking in the door constantly , so it makes every day different . special . and if your menu is anything like your pop - up or your truck , i 'm guessing it 'll change with the seasons ? lola : exactly . tessa was one of my most loyal customers . tessa : and i remember back when having a restaurant was just a dream . and i can tell from the vision board and the uniforms and knowing lola the way that i do [ chuckles ] that this is n't just a business concept . it 's a labor of love . you guys are putting your hearts and souls into it , and i would be so honored to help make this dream come true . lola : well , that 's exactly what we 're looking for . abby : just one more question . tessa : mm - hmm . abby : why did you stop working at crimson lights ? `` the young and the restless `` will continue . mariah : all right . i ordered something sweet . that way , if it 's good news , we can celebrate , and if it 's bad news , we get to eat our feelings . tessa : okay . it 's no news , but that 's supposed to be good news , right ? mariah : i do n't know . how did it go ? tessa : great . i mean ... at first . okay , well , we were all sitting there , and it could n't have been going better . i mean , they 're telling me about the plans for the restaurant , and i 'm thinking , `` oh , i really want this job . `` i mean , with lola 's food and abby 's attention to fashion and detail , i can tell that it would be an amazing place to work . mariah : okay . so far , so good . tessa : until the end . mariah : what happened ? tessa : they asked me why i left my job here . mariah : and what did you tell them ? tessa : well , i did n't tell them that i got booted for blackmailing the owner . mariah : yeah , no , that would have been bad . tessa : yeah . so i told them that i had gone as far as i could as a barista , and i 'm seeking other opportunities . mariah : okay , so , what happens now ? tessa : they 'll probably call sharon for a reference , and then that will be the end . mariah : it 's not like sharon can come clean , either . tessa : yeah , but she wo n't have to . i mean , her disdain and dislike will shine through no matter what story she cobbles together . so . another job bites the dust . mariah : please do n't give up yet . tessa : i 'm not . i 'm being real . no matter what i do , my past will come back to haunt me . karma . and , you know , it 's not like i 'm asking , heh , for the perfect job . i 'm not asking for a million dollars . i 'm just asking for something small to make me feel human again . mariah : then that 's what you 're gon na get . tessa : how do you know ? mariah : let 's just say i believe in happy beginnings . but ... there 's someplace that i have to be right now . tessa : okay . where ? mariah : would you believe me if i told you i was going to see a fairy godmother ?

i get to say i was right . we made it , steffy . we made it .Summarize.[/INST]steffy repeats to liam that she knows it will take time but she is starting the separation process and she and wyatt are over . and with quinn now cemented in as poa all will go the way she planned . she says liam was right all along . ridge tells rick , thomas , carter and brooke that he lied and they are all in trouble as now quinn legally has the poa . rick says this is a disaster . ridge says he assumed his dad had given him the poa and acted on that . zende asks nicole if she really would put herself through that with another nine months of being a surrogate . she says yes she knows it is too much to ask but she is considering it . he says great but there are other ways to get a little brother or sister other than her as surrogate . she has given the ultimate gift and she can not do that again . some things should not be asked . even her own parents who love being grandparents to lizzy would say this is too much . she agrees and says she will find the way to tell maya and rick . but she really liked this maternal feeling she was having . zende says in the end she has to do what is right for her .</s> | 5,649 |

[ scene_break ] robin : so what 's your problem with brenda ? maxie : it 's not me . it 's spinelli . he thinks brenda looks like this character from a video game he plays , `` ariel blaine super cyber spy . `` robin : ca n't say i 've played that one . have you ? maxie : no , but as soon as spinelli told me about it , i looked it up on the internet , and it turns out ariel is some smoking - hot super spy who saves the world wearing nothing but spandex , lime green spandex which completely washes out her complexion . i know that 's besides the point . robin : okay , and so the point is ? maxie : the point is that spinelli is infatuated with her . he believes brenda is like the real - life version of ariel blaine . he 's falling all over himself to worship at her feet . he even went to the farmers market to stock up on all of brenda 's favorite organic products . he 's clearly losing his mind . robin : either that , or he found someone else to put on a pedestal . maybe you 're a little jealous , maybe a little mad that spinelli 's moving on .

[ scene_break ] alexis : it 's all right , sweetie . you just lean on mommy , okay ? i 'm gon na take care of this for you . will you do that ? just a little step , a little time , okay ? kristina : okay . alexis : good girl . kristina : i 'm so sorry , mom . alexis : you have nothing to be sorry for , sweetie . shh , shh . kristina : i 'm so stupid . alexis : no . you 're a wonderful , beautiful girl . it 's okay . come on . [ scene_break ] michael : there was never any contest . you were always my favorite guard by far . max : you know , flattery will get you nowhere . michael : no , i 'm serious , max . i mean , you were n't like all the other guys -- stiff , uptight , like they 're in the frickin ' secret service . you were real . you took me out on bike rides to the park , played nerf guns with me and morgan . i just felt like you liked hanging out with us . max : and i did , and i still do , all right ? you and morgan are terrific kids . michael : see , that 's the thing that everybody 's missing . i 'm not a kid anymore . i know things that kristina and morgan ca n't even imagine . dad 's not gon na survive in prison . he 's claustrophobic . he has meltdowns . he has enemies . anthony zacchara could take him out anytime he wants . you and i both know that pentonville is zacchara territory . you know i 'm right . max : look , you hear me arguing ? michael : well , then help me fix it . max : look , michael . i understand your instinct to protect mr. c , all right ? if it were my father , i would do the same thing , but that 's not what mr. c wants for you . look , just hang tight until after the trial , all right ? mr. c is very resourceful , and diane is scary brilliant . they may just pull this off . [ scene_break ] maxie : thanks . does n't matter how many different ways you ask me that question . my answer is going to stay the same . i have no idea if anyone was in the car with sonny that night , because -- wait for it . here it is again . all i could see was sonny at the gate because the headlights were on him . and even if i could have seen in the car , i probably would n't have looked . i was too focused on waiting for the pool guy . claire : yes , the pool guy . we know . let 's approach this a different way . judge carroll : make it work , you win today 's gold star . claire : when sonny opened the door to exit the car , did the interior light come on ? maxie : they usually do . diane : okay , that 's it . your honor , i have been extremely patient through all of this , but now i really have to object . asked and answered and asked and asked and asked , ad nauseam . ms. jones ' testimony is clear and succinct . visibility was limited because it was raining . she saw mr. corinthos illuminated in headlights at his gate with a stain on his shirt . end of story . end of testimony , please . judge carroll : i agree with ms. miller . your objection is sustained . anything else , ms. walsh ? claire : one more line i 'd like to explore . judge carroll : quickly , then . claire : do you have a boyfriend ? maxie : i have a nonhusband . claire : i 'm sorry . maxie : a non - hus - band . claire : would that be damien spinelli ? maxie : yes . claire : the same damien spinelli that not only lives with , but works for jason morgan , mr. corinthos ' enforcer ? [ scene_break ] sonny : you think i should leave the country ? jason : i think you should follow your instincts . i mean , court 's not lookin ' good right now . johnny got you to go off in front of the jury . robin had to tell the truth about what you said to claudia that night . sonny : mm - hmm . jason : okay , if you honestly believe in your gut that maxie is gon na name michael as a witness , then this whole thing 's over , because we can not depend on michael to hold up under pressure , so if you have no faith in maxie , you need to leave while you still can . sonny : i have to think about all my kids right now , not just michael . what about kristina ? she 's walkin ' around wounded . and you got that pig ethan who 's got ta pay for what he did . i admit the trial 's not goin ' well , but coleman 's on the jury . he 's not gon na convict me , like i said before . diane can turn this on a dime . can we all agree that the best thing for me right now is to get acquitted ? there 's no other option , right ? carly : can we all get real right now ? the reason why you do n't wan na leave the country is 'cause you wan na be around in case your new son dante decides to throw you a crumb . sonny : wrong , carly . it 's not just about dante . we got michael on an island drownin ' in his own guilt alone . you got kristina , who 's been abused , and morgan , who 's hurting . we have n't even talked about that poor kid . one second , he thinks he 's got a family he can depend on . then you and jax are blown apart , and he 's got a new brother in the mix . carly : none of those things are the reason why you 're risking yourself , sonny . you think that if you stick around , that you can somehow get an in with dante . well , it 's not gon na happen . you 're kidding yourself . sonny : you do n't know him very well . carly : you do n't know him either , and he keeps rejecting you over and over again . when are you gon na smell the coffee ? jason : you think another conversation about dante is gon na solve anything ? sonny : hey , we do n't have to have another conversation about dante , 'cause i 'm not leaving . that 's the end of that tune . jason : okay , then you know what ? we need to know where we stand . i 'm gon na go to gh and see how maxie held up . carly : wow . could have predicted that , you know . sonny : what are you talkin ' about ? carly : jason makes a beeline for the door every single time you talk about dante . sonny : yeah . he does n't like dante or trust dante , because dante 's a cop , which is a contradiction , because he likes and trusts lucky , and he 's a cop . carly : lucky never tried to take down the organization . sonny : i do n't think he can pull it off , to be honest with you . carly : what is that , pride ? are you crazy ? this is what i 'm talkin ' about , sonny , the reason why jason walks out of the room every time , your skewed vision of dante . this man that you 're so proud of is a cop who you shot with lethal intent , and he does n't care that you did n't know that he was your son . he hates you , and he 's never going to forgive you . so the sooner you understand that , the sooner you can get on with the business of survival .

[ scene_break ] ethan : i liked kristina , all right ? she was a sweet kid who was having trouble navigating adolescence , as many teenagers do , you know . it did n't help that she had a psychotic mob boss for a father , you know . she took it hard , and i felt sorry for her . i knew she was crushing a little , yes , but i thought it was harmless , you know . i never thought she 'd act on it . skye : act on it . how ? ethan : about a month ago , sam , kristina 's older sister , came to me , and she said i needed to back off a little , because kristina was getting the wrong idea , so i did . but kristina would n't have it . she would track me down and flirt with me , and then finally she showed up at the haunted star all dressed up , and i told her on no uncertain terms that she was too young for me and i was n't interested . plus , she was underage . you know , the haunted star 's a bar , a gambling establishment . we could get shut down . so i told her to leave , and she threw a drink in my face , you know , and i overreacted . i grabbed her arm , and that 's the extent of my questionable behavior , you know . i guess when kristina said i did it , she was lying , you know , but she felt guilty enough to get the charges dropped . skye : well , if you 've been wrongly accused , then i 'm genuinely sorry . but i 'm not exactly the most objective eye . never had any use for alexis . think she 's a condescending , self - important twit . and sonny corinthos is the most self- absorbed person on the planet . i can understand why having parents like those would cause kristina to act out in dangerous ways . but the person who beat that girl is a monster , and whether it 's you or someone else , he needs to pay .

[ scene_break ] jason : spinelli , i hope you 're not pushing yourself too hard . spinelli : yeah , my only concern is for maximista . jason : and how are you holdin ' up ? maxie : let me just put your mind at ease . i did n't mention a single thing about seeing michael with sonny the night claudia was killed . even though that prosecutor treated me like a criminal , i stuck to my story . spinelli : yeah . from what i understand , she did more than that . she utilized her verbal dexterity to deflect and obfuscate and basically inspired massive frustration on the part of claire walsh . jason : i kind of had a feeling it would go that way . maxie : just an observation . that woman is kinda stuck on michael . i mean , i do n't think she 's gon na give up until she puts him on the stand . jason : well , the plan is to not let that happen . maxie , look , i know sometimes i get impatient with you . maxie : it 's okay . i know that i 'm basically an annoying person . jason : not today . you came through for us when it mattered , and sonny and i are very grateful . [ scene_break ] sonny : i 'm depending on you . i truly believe that your testimony is really the only thing that 's gon na turn this trial around , and there 's nobody more convincing . carly : when i lie . sonny : no , no . whatever . look , when you believe in something and you 're focusin ' everything , you can convince the jury that i killed claudia because i was defending you and josslyn . carly : right , and if i do n't perform like a trained seal or if , you know , the jury does n't believe me , you have your fall guy , right ? sonny : what are you talking about ? carly : if you get convicted , it 'll be my fault then , sonny . sonny : no , no , no . this is no one 's fault . it 's my fault , this whole situation . i was trying to protect michael , and you know what ? i made it worse . carly : no . no . stop . i 'm sorry . we 're all to blame . sonny : no , no , no . look , here 's the thing . when all the chips fall , you 're really the only one that i can count on . right ? and i 'm not saying that -- whatever . i mean , you 're fierce , and you 're not just doin ' it for me . you 're fightin ' for our son . because michael will not be able to have a great life if i 'm not set free , because this guilt over claudia will kill him , and he 's gon na feel responsible for sending his father to prison . carly : okay . [ knock on door ] sonny : whoa . diane : for once , i come with a glimmer of hope . maxie really came through for us today with her testimony . sonny : she did n't give up michael ? diane : not even a little . carly : oh , my god . that 's such great news . sonny : i thought she 'd sink the ship . diane : oh , ye of little faith . [ cell phone rings ] sonny : excuse me . alexis ? what 's up ? alexis : you need to get to the er . kristina 's been beat up again . [ scene_break ] spinelli : you must be really gratified . stone cold and mr. sir are finally in your debt . maxie : yeah , gratitude is nice , but trust is way better , jason 's , anyway . and since i know that 's not gon na happen , you should trust me and tell me what 's going on . spinelli : okay , look , if this is going where i think it is going , i have to caution you . the less that is said about certain things , the better . maxie : spinelli , i just gave testimony under oath , which means i perjured myself , and i feel like i at least get to know why . okay , fine . if you 're not gon na say it , then i will . mac told me that michael confessed to killing claudia . mac said he thought that michael was just trying to protect sonny , but michael was telling the truth , was n't he ? this whole thing has been just one big cover - up . sonny did n't kill claudia . michael did . spinelli : i 'm not real -- maxie : spinelli , do not lie to my face . spinelli : yes . your theory is correct . i mean , if sonny had struck the fatal blow , this would all be less painful and complicated . maxie : what happened ? spinelli : well , michael witnessed a fight between jax and mr. sir the night of claudia 's death , and i guess he decided to take off . i think canada was the intended destination . and on his way to the border , he saw the car that claudia has stolen crashed and abandoned at the side of the road , so he followed a path through the woods and to the cabin , where he saw claudia about to take the newborn baby from his helpless mother . so he picked up the nearest object he could find , the ax handle , and , well , you know the rest . maxie : so this whole thing has been about protecting michael . spinelli : i think the adults in michael 's life carry an enormous amount of guilt about michael 's shooting , so the idea of him going to prison for claudia 's death is unacceptable . and if mr. sir is tried and acquitted , double jeopardy applies , and since everyone assumes he 's the killer , the case 'll be closed . michael will never be exposed as claudia 's true , though accidental killer . maxie : well , i do n't know if this is ironic or poetic justice that sonny is on trial for the one murder he did n't commit . spinelli : well , it is noble to put his son 's welfare above his own . maxie : well , i feel bad for michael and kristina and morgan . i mean , at least dante is a grown man , fully formed . can you imagine being a kid in this world and trying to figure things out with sonny corinthos as your father ? [ scene_break ] max : hey , remember that summer you learned how to swim here in the ocean ? you used to love this place . michael : yeah , when i was a kid . i used to think that if something went wrong back home , i could just come out here , and by the time we got back , problem solved . i used to actually believe that being here , staying safe was helping , but it does n't work that way . max : you are helping , michael . michael : there are some problems that ca n't be fixed , and claudia 's death is one of them . i still think about her every day . the moment i hit her , why did n't i just wait or try to hold her off ? jason and sam would have gotten there . or if i had n't have hit her so hard -- max : michael , do n't do this to yourself . michael : i 'm sorry , max . i 'm just not used to killing people , you know ? if i would have just taken a second to think , none of this would have happened . [ scene_break ] steve : sorry , honey . i have to assess the damage . we can give you something for the pain . alexis : i 'll be right back , sweetie . sonny : how is she ? alexis : not good . sonny : what happened ? alexis : i found her unconscious , and she was beaten up . sonny : all right . alexis : oh , no , no , no . please do n't go in there . sonny : you do n't think she wants to see me ? alexis : you scare her sometimes . how is she ? steve : i 've ordered a series of tests and x - rays , but nothing seems to be broken . alexis : she was unconscious when i found her , so she 's kind of going in and out . steve : we 'll run a ct scan . alexis : okay . steve : but i will go out on a limb and say the most i expect to find is a possible concussion . kristina : i 'm so sorry , mom . steve : do n't be sorry , baby . do n't be sorry . you have nothing -- kristina : no . i made a mess of everything . you do n't even know . alexis : no , you did n't . no , you did n't . listen to me . you 're gon na just concentrate on getting better , okay ? that 's all you have to do . it 's okay , babe . it 's okay .

[ scene_break ] diane : i always find that life is a bit more manageable with a good cabernet . carly : thanks . i needed this . i ca n't believe kristina was beaten up again . diane : ethan lovett is one sick puppy who needs to be put down . carly : mm . except i do n't believe ethan did it . diane : jason told me that after he spoke with you , you did n't feel that kristina was perhaps telling the truth , so do you have another candidate ? carly : yeah , her boyfriend kiefer . diane : mm - hmm . and what do you base this conclusion on ? carly : because i know that kiefer is n't a nice kid . he 's been mean to michael , and he 's bullied morgan . and then i went and i had a conversation with kristina , and i came away convinced that she was n't telling the truth . and then when i told michael what happened to kristina , he went to kiefer the first thing . you know , it 's all circumstantial evidence , but you 're the lawyer . i do n't need to tell you how circumstantial can lead to the truth . diane : well , this could n't come at a worse time . not that any time is a good time . that 's not what i 'm saying . my point is that if sonny decides to avenge kristina and anything happens to either kiefer or ethan , then it 's as good as over . sonny 's goin ' down . [ scene_break ] dante : sonny . we got a call that kristina was brought in . sonny : she 's in there . wait . wait . wait a minute . when you go in there , take a look at your little sister . come back and tell me it was a good idea to drop the charges on ethan lovett . dante : hey . how are you doin ' ? kristina : feel like the most stupid person on the planet . alexis : she keeps blaming herself . kristina : because it 's my fault . alexis : no . kristina : i should n't have made him so mad . dante : no . no , no . i 'm sure your mother 's been telling you that you can not blame yourself for this , and she 's right . there 's nothing , nothing that you could have done that would make it okay for this guy to respond with his fists . kristina : thanks for tryin ' to make me feel better . steve : x - rays should confirm no broken bones , but we 're still waiting for test results . i 'd like to keep her overnight . alexis . alexis : whatever you think is best . steve : we 'll get you settled asap . go easy . dante : look , i 'm not here just as your brother , but i 'm also investigating what happened to you . you feel like you can tell me about it ?

[ scene_break ] max : hey , remember that summer you learned how to swim here in the ocean ? you used to love this place . michael : yeah , when i was a kid . i used to think that if something went wrong back home , i could just come out here , and by the time we got back , problem solved . i used to actually believe that being here , staying safe was helping , but it does n't work that way . max : you are helping , michael . michael : there are some problems that ca n't be fixed , and claudia 's death is one of them . i still think about her every day . the moment i hit her , why did n't i just wait or try to hold her off ? jason and sam would have gotten there . or if i had n't have hit her so hard -- max : michael , do n't do this to yourself . michael : i 'm sorry , max . i 'm just not used to killing people , you know ? if i would have just taken a second to think , none of this would have happened .

[ scene_break ] brooke : rick left before i got up . ridge : i need to talk to him . i need to find out what happened . has he said anything to you ? brooke : they were on their way to the rehearsal dinner together . ridge : that 's what does n't make sense . why were they even together in the first place ? brooke : i guess she jumped in the car at the last minute . he was n't expecting to be with her . ridge : look , ever since this ridiculous relationship with taylor , she 's had nothing to do with rick . now all of a sudden , she 's hitching rides in his car ? brooke : she needed to talk to him , ridge . they have n't really seen each other since taylor broke up with rick , and she needed to -- ( sighs ) to vent her anger about the whole situation . ridge : that 's what rick said ? that she was angry ? brooke : ( sighs ) ridge : did they argue ? brooke : ( sighs ) she really laid into him . rick said she went a little berserk . ridge : in the car ? brooke : that 's right . ridge : logan , what exactly are you trying to tell me here ? [ scene_break ] rick : i 'm sorry . taylor : ( sniffles ) if we had lost you , too -- i - i just thank god you 're -- you 're okay . taylor : she would have done so many great things . taylor : ( sighs ) ( sniffles ) i want -- want you to tell me what happened . i want you to tell me how phoebe died . rick : ( sighs ) [ scene_break ] stephanie : steffy , do n't . please do n't ever say anything like that or even think anything like that . steffy : if it were n't for me , phoebe would n't have gone to confront rick . stephanie : no , that 's not true . she was angry with him . she 's been really angry with him ever since he had the affair with your mother . look , i -- my guess is that she 's wanted to confront him for months , and this was her chance . steffy : no , i do n't think that . i think she would have avoided him the whole time she was in l.a. she flipped out when i told her what happened . he kissed me . stephanie : what ? steffy : it was just a stupid plan to make dad angry . i di -- he knew how much dad hated when he was with phoebe , so he figured he 'd try to make a move on me . i just -- stephanie : that little bastard . steffy : i 'm not stupid . i saw right through him . i slapped him hard , and i told him to never touch me again . stephanie : that 's why phoebe went after him . steffy : she was so upset . god , if i 'd just kept it to myself , she would still be here . she would n't have got in that car . my sister would be alive . [ scene_break ] brooke : phoebe was angry at rick . she felt humiliated . ridge : what does that have to do with the accident ? brooke : they were arguing , ridge . ( sighs ) things got heated . ridge : and rick was n't paying attention to the road then . brooke : she was attacking him . she was physically hitting him , and she was screaming in his face , and then she started scratching at him -- ridge : no . no . no . brooke : yes , ridge . she was in such a tirade . she grabbed the steering wheel and jerked it and then pushed her foot down on the accelerator . and rick was doing everything he possibly could just to keep the car under control . then he put his foot on the brake , and she pushed harder on the accelerator , and they just skidded off the road into a ditch . ridge : so it was her fault ? brooke : no . ( sighs ) look , i know this is not easy to hear . ridge : this was her fault ? ridge : your son crashes his car , kills my daughter , and phoebe 's to blame ? [ scene_break ] stephanie : steffy , i understand why you feel this way . i do . but -- but , honey , you have n't done anything wrong . steffy : i should have just kept my big mouth shut . stephanie : no . no . i do n't think it would have made a difference . phoebe was really angry with rick for a long , long time . steffy : she never needed to know . rick tried to use me to get to dad . so what ? i had him figured out right away . there was no need to upset phoebe with it . stephanie : honey , stop blaming yourself . listen to me . this is n't your fault . stop blaming yourself . steffy : god , i wonder if rick even realizes what he 'd done to my father . what this stupid kiss did to my sister . stephanie : oh , honey . do n't cry . do n't cry . it 's not your fault , okay ? rick 's to blame . and i do n't want you to ever , ever feel guilty because you told the truth . [ scene_break ] rick : phoebe died in ridge 's arms . and she was singing him a song . taylor : no , i mean -- i mean before that . what happened in the car ? did she say anything about me ? rick : ( sighs ) taylor : ( sighs ) phoebe was very upset with me yesterday . she 'd been holding in a lot of anger about -- about what happened between you and me . did she say anything about it ? rick : taylor , come on . taylor : just tell me ! just tell me . did she say anything about me ? [ scene_break ] ridge : your son was speeding along a residential road , and my dead daughter is the one that 's to blame ? brooke : i 'm not saying that , ridge . it was an accident . nobody 's at fault . ridge : you said rick said that phoebe was beating up on him while somehow simultaneously putting her foot on the accelerator pedal . brooke : ( sighs ) ridge : you want to explain the logistics of that ? i do n't understand . how could she get her foot on the accelerator pedal ? brooke : i - i - i do n't know . i do n't know . but that 's how it happened . ridge : according to rick . brooke : yes . ridge : well , i 'm sorry , but i 'm finding it damn difficult to take rick 's word about anything these days . brooke : ridge , what happened was a horrible accident . and we 're all grieving right now . we may never know what happened out there on that road . and i am not saying that phoebe caused it , but there was a fight , and it ended in a tragedy . let 's just leave it at that , okay ? ridge , i love you . i do n't want to argue about this . please , we can work through this . ridge : yes , we can . and i love you . that 's why it concerns me , worries me , that you 're being manipulated by your own son . brooke : ( sighs ) let 's just focus on our family right now . we 've got ta tell hope and r.j. about the accident , and we 've got ta make arrangements -- stephanie : i 'm so sick and tired of hearing you call this an accident . do n't let her get away with that . [ scene_break ] rick : taylor , you have to listen to me . phoebe did not die hating you . that 's the truth . taylor : ( scoffs ) if i had n't gotten involved with you . taylor : i made the whole thing worse ... rick : taylor , you 're wrong . taylor : because i had a relationship with you . rick : you 're wrong . no , you ca n't -- you ca n't think about it like that , taylor . come on . taylor : why do n't you think that 's true ? look what she did . she left town . she went away as far as she could get from me because she did n't want to be around me . rick : y - you tried time and time again to end things with me , and i would n't let that happen , okay ? because i loved you too much . taylor : ( scoffs ) rick : and you loved me too much . but i realize now that that was n't enough . it was n't enough . i could n't see what it was doing to you . i could n't see what it was -- what it was doing to phoebe , how it was hurting phoebe . it was my fault . it was my fault . i convinced you to stay with me . taylor : well , you know what ? that does n't make it okay . i made the choice . it 's my fault . i did it , because i made the choice to be with you . i hurt my daughter . i hurt her . i do n't know how i 'm going to be able to live with it ! taylor : ( sighs ) [ scene_break ] brooke : how dare you barge into this house again with your insane accusations . ridge : again ? brooke : oh , yeah . stephanie stopped by last night trying to drag rick off to jail . or me , for that matter . she was n't sure which one of us was guilty of phoebe 's death . ridge : mother ? stephanie : you know , if i could 've had you put away in jail years ago for the crimes you committed against your own children , i would have . but it 's a little late for that . however , it 's not too late to bring rick to justice for taking phoebe 's life . stephanie : did she tell you why phoebe was in his car ? ridge : she wanted to confront him about taylor , tell him how much he hurt her . stephanie : well , you 're halfway there . brooke : stephanie . stephanie : she was in the car because he 'd made a pass at her sister . he kissed steffy . ridge : what ? ! stephanie : steffy is now beside herself with guilt because she discussed this with phoebe . that 's why phoebe went to see him . that 's why phoebe was in the car . brooke : ( sighs ) stephanie : and that 's why she 's dead . brooke : okay . okay . look , rick made a foolish mistake . he did something really stupid . he was just trying to get a rise out of you , ridge . it was one stupid prank . one little kiss to try to bug you . ridge : oh , for god 's sake , brooke . you knew about this , and you did n't tell me ? brooke : i just found out . stephanie : oh , my god . you 're calling these things stupid , silly pranks ? he gets out of the hospital the day he checks out , and he can actually walk . he 's just pretending . that 's a silly prank ? and this internet thing ? ridge : what ? stephanie : well , i mean , everything that she said that was supposed to be wonderful about you so you would feel good -- he edited the whole thing so it sounded as though she was talking about him . and she stands there and calls these things silly pranks . they were supposed to break you up , and nobody was supposed to get hurt . brooke : i was going to tell you everything . stephanie : nobody was supposed to get hurt , right ? nobody was going to get hurt except for his daughter . and she 's dead . brooke : stop it ! ridge , you know rick would never do anything to hurt phoebe . you know that . this was just a horrible accident . tell me you know that . stephanie : no . no . what you have to do , ridge , is call the police and tell them that you want this investigated to the fullest extent of the law , and rick has to be prosecuted . and if there is the evidence there , which i believe there is , then he has to be sent away . he has to be put in jail .Summarize.[/INST]brooke weeps as stephanie 's words echo in her ears she is responsible for how rick turned out and made him the man he is . so brooke is responsible for phoebe 's death . brooke tells ridge that she could not explain to hope and r.j. that phoebe died , only that there would not be a wedding today . ridge wants answers , why phoebe was even with rick in the car . she explains that phoebe jumped in the car and then went a little berserk . phoebe was physically attacking rick . he tried to stop her , but lost control of the car . ridge ca n't believe that , his own daughter was to blame ? he finds it hard to take rick 's word about anything nowadays . brooke wants to leave it at that . she does not want to argue about this . it bothers ridge though , that she is yet again being manipulated by her own son . she believes him no matter how unreasonable his version sounds . rick finds taylor alone and tells her how sorry he is . she 's just glad that he is okay and they did n't lose him too . she wants to know all the details . she wants to know if phoebe said anything about her . lt . baker explains to stephanie that rick was not drinking so the accident was just that , an accident . he 's sorry for her loss and they will stay on the case , and he will let her know if anything else develops . stephanie has to talk plainly to steffy to keep her from blaming herself . if she had not told phoebe about rick 's kiss , then she would not have confronted rick and gone after him . she would still be alive . stephanie does n't want steffy to feel guilty about only telling the truth .</s> | 6,162 |

[ scene_break ] kiki : please tell me you 're not suggesting we bring rosalie in on this plan . morgan : yeah . why not ? kiki : because she 's a lying slut . the woman slept with michael before we 'd even broken up . morgan : exactly . and why 'd they sleep together ? because they were trashed . so , michael 's clearly capable of getting drunk . seems like rosalie 's the person to do that with , so ... kiki : okay . and how do you plan on getting her to go along with it ? we 're not exactly friends . morgan : okay . i 'll pay her . kiki : more than she makes working for elq ? i think the quartermaines pay pretty well . they can certainly afford it . oh . and there is someone who would know .

[ scene_break ] lulu : tell me . start at the beginning . maxie : okay . um ... yesterday , when you left the hospital , nathan showed up , and he said something to me . lulu : something like ... ? maxie : he loves me . lulu : aah ! [ laughs ] nathan told you that he loves -- why are n't you squealing with me ? ! wait . this is a good thing . this is a good thing , right ? maxie : yes , obviously . it 's -- it 's amazing that nathan would look at me and say something like that to me . lulu : maxie , you said it back , right ? you told nathan that you love him , too . maxie : n - not at first . there was a lot going on , okay ? the doctor came in and interrupted the moment . look , he -- he came over here this morning , and i told him then . lulu : and how was that ? maxie : beautiful and true . and he -- he looked me in the eye , and he told me that he loved me completely . and he asked me if i felt the same . i told him that was so stupid . of course , i feel the same , you know ? like , he 's -- he 's saved me . he 's helped me save myself . and he 's made me so incredibly happy , and i told him that . i told him that i am absolutely , positively , deeply in love with him . lulu : okay . that 's great . nathan loves you , and you love him . i do n't see what the problem is . maxie : i 'm gon na give you a hint . his name is spinelli .

[ scene_break ] nikolas : spencer , listen to me . we still do n't know exactly what happened . spencer : what else is there to know ? cameron was the one who started the fire at my party , and now i 'm disfigured for life . sam : hey , spencer , buddy , come on . nikolas : hey , hey . listen . stop . i do n't want to hear any more talk like that , all right ? as for cameron , all elizabeth said is that he thinks he may have knocked something into the candle when he was getting his gift bag , and if that 's the case , it was an accident . spencer : for one , i do n't believe that . second , he did this on purpose . [ scene_break ] jake : given recent events , uh ... i 'm uniquely qualified to empathize with cameron . elizabeth : [ sighs ] jake : i know what it 's like to have done damage you did n't intend to do . elizabeth : yeah . jake : so i imagine the guilt 's eating him up . poor little guy . he thought he was gon na get arrested . elizabeth : yeah . i had to explain to him that that was n't going to happen . jake : sounds like it was a legitimate accident . elizabeth : but the thing is , it 's not the first time he 's gotten into trouble with fire . a few years ago , he was playing with matches , and he lit the house on fire , and i ... jake : well , that sounds terrifying . elizabeth : my baby jake , was -- he was trapped inside ... i managed to get everyone out , but to say it haunted me afterwards is ... jake : i can imagine . elizabeth : i mean , we all could 've died . you know , one little mistake , and i could 've lost all my boys . [ scene_break ] lulu : i know that spinelli being around has made you question things . maxie : just a little . lulu : and you 're probably wondering if what 's best for all of you is to be a conventional family . maxie : i knew you would get it . look , i -- i keep thinking about all the times i missed frisco -- you know , like the christmases and birthdays and dance recitals that i never heard from him . but i had mac . i mean , thank god for mac . he was the most wonderful , amazing father anyone could ask for . but no matter what , i -- i always missed my real dad , and i do n't want georgie to ever feel that way . lulu : okay . spinelli is nothing like frisco . just because you guys are n't together does not mean that he wo n't be a loving and doting dad . maxie : but what if spinelli and i were together ? i mean , would n't that be what was best for georgie ? and does n't the fact that spinelli is georgie 's father put huge points in his favor ? lulu : not if you do n't love spinelli . you ca n't make georgie the reason you 're together . that 's not fair to her . maxie : i do love spinelli . lulu : but you just said that you love nathan . maxie : i love him , too . i love them both . [ scene_break ] nathan : mr. corinthos -- call me sonny . nathan : sonny ... yeah . look , i understand your friendship with spinelli , but i 'm well within my rights to want him gone . sonny : because of maxie ? nathan : yes , because of maxie . he has been interfering in our relationship since the moment he showed up . sonny : it 's complicated . nathan : yeah . you 're telling me . and maxie 's so confused , she 's spinning . meanwhile , we 're doing fine until he shows up . we 're committed 100 % , and now -- spinelli : apologies for shaking things up . but maximista is the mother of my child . nathan : i get that . i really do . but that does not mean that she 's supposed to be with you . spinelli : oh , i see . so she 's meant to be with you ? nathan : i think so . and i think she thinks so , too , if you 'd just give her some space . look , if you cared about maxie the way you say you do , then you 'd just go and let her move on with her life . sonny : you know what ? i understand your position . but obviously , spinelli does n't -- spinelli : actually , on the contrary ... i have no problem with that plan . [ scene_break ] kiki : what the hell is this ? sabrina : a baby in a stroller . kiki : no . that 's not just any baby . that is my little sister . ugh . did michael actually hire you ? sabrina : yes . i 'm aj 's nanny . kiki : that name -- i swear , if i hear it one more time -- sabrina : i 'm going to call her what her guardian wants her to be called . kiki : her guardian has lost his mind . hiring the woman who tried to kill my sister to be her nanny ? sabrina : my goal was n't to hurt aj . kiki : hello . you tried to induce premature labor . sabrina : i know . but my focus was hurting your mother because of what i thought she 'd done to my son . kiki : oh . okay . yeah . that makes everything better . sabrina : okay , kiki , i promise you , i 'm better now . i would never , ever hurt your sister . if anything , i 'll be working overtime to make it up to her . kiki : you should n't be working with her at all . you should n't be allowed anywhere near her . you are a psycho . sabrina : okay . so , clearly , this conversation is n't gon na get us anywhere . let 's go have coffee somewhere else , yeah ? kiki : no . you 're not going anywhere with my little sister . [ scene_break ] lulu : okay . maxie : okay ? lulu : you love two different men at the same time . maxie : yeah , then , now do you see why i need your advice ? lulu : let 's not panic . maxie : no , lulu , i 'm beyond panicking , okay ? i 'm , like , channeling my mother here . i ca n't choose between my ex and my boyfriend ? lulu : okay . this is a hiccup , yes . it 's not the end of the world . we can figure it out . maxie : we can . lulu : okay , first things first ... maxie : ooh ! a plan ! lulu : yeah , okay . do not tell nathan that you love spinelli . you told nathan that you love spinelli ? ! [ gasps ] maxie : look , he asked me point - blank if i was holding something back . lulu : so ? ! maxie : so is n't , like , the most important thing in a relationship to be honest ? lulu : not that honest ! maxie : what did you want me to do ? lulu : lie ! lie ! it 's one of your best events ! maxie : hey ! lulu : that way , you could 've at least bought yourself some time ! maxie : okay . well , great . all right , next time i find myself in the situation where i love two men at the same time , i 'll remember that . but our current reality is nathan knows . lulu : okay . regroup . regroup . deep breaths . maxie : is this for you or for me ? lulu : okay . wait . what happened when you told nathan ? did he get angry ? maxie : i would n't say he was angry , but he was definitely upset . lulu : and then what happened ? maxie : he walked out of here , and i have n't see him since then . i really hope he does n't run into spinelli .

[ scene_break ] nikolas : what makes you think cameron started the fire on purpose ? spencer : do i really need to spell it out ? nikolas : i guess so . spencer : pyromania is cameron 's hobby . the only thing he likes more than playing with origami is playing with matches . and you know it . i do n't hear anyone denying it . that little pyro wanted me out of the way . emma : spencer , that 's not fair . spencer : cameron hates me . patrick : i think `` hate `` is a pretty strong word . spencer : well , it fits . emma : maybe you and cameron do n't get along , but i 'm sure he would never hurt you on purpose . spencer : ca n't you see ? we 're finally together , and cameron ca n't stand it . he could n't just let me be happy .

[ scene_break ] elizabeth : not something i say very often , but carly 's right . ric and i are through . jake : you okay ? elizabeth : yeah . i mean , i 'm sad about it , but it 's for the best . we just were n't -- we were n't meant to be . and especially after that stunt he pulled with you ... jake : yeah , i hope you did n't end things on my account . elizabeth : truthfully ... i kind of did . [ scene_break ] kiki : i just can not believe that the woman who almost forced our sister into this world way too early is now one of her primary caregivers . morgan : okay , but our focus needs to be on getting avery away from michael , so that means we stick to the plan , and i need you to help me out . how do we make michael look like an alcoholic , kiki ? kiki : i ca n't . morgan : you ca n't what ? kiki : i ca n't think about that right now . all i can see is sabrina switching my mom 's medication and sending her into premature labor . morgan : that 's it . you 're a genius , kiki . okay .

[ scene_break ] nathan : you want a boxing match . spinelli : yeah . apropos , given our current surroundings , eh ? and what better way to determining who 's more deserving of maximista . sonny : a crossword puzzle , maybe trivia . i do n't know . spinelli : neither would aptly convey t - t - t - the physical strain of my yearning , you see . nathan : you sure you want to do this . the guy outweighs you like 50 pounds . spinelli : absolutely . i am sure . and you 'd be the first to admit that boxing is about far more than just muscle , right ? there 's a tremendous amount of skill involved . floating like a butterfly , stinging like a bee , as it were ? ! right ? and they do call it the sweet science . sonny : mm - hmm . spinelli : do they not ? named because the practitioners must combine physical prowess with mental acuity . sonny : uh , i would n't put it that way . spinelli : the best boxers are a combination of brains and brawns ! sonny : some of them , yeah . spinelli : right . and my mental prowess far exceeds that of detective west . sonny : yes . that 's very true . spinelli : right ! so let the best man win , as they say ! unless you have any objections . nathan : oh , oh . i got plenty . [ scene_break ] morgan : the whole switching medication thing just gave me an idea , because i think we should do to michael what sabrina did to your mom . kiki : you want to send michael into premature labor ? morgan : no . okay , look . we switch his meds . we switch it with something that reacts badly to alcohol . so the next time michael goes and knocks a few back , we 'll have no problem making him look like a drunk . drunk michael looks like an unfit guardian . unfit michael loses custody of avery . voilá ! avery 's back where she belongs . kiki : so basically , you want to drug your brother . morgan : i know how that sounds ; but , i mean , do you have a better idea ? kiki : no . morgan : okay , then there 's no other option . do you want to save avery or not ? kiki : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] rosalie : uh , can i help you ? sabrina : oh , i 'm here to see michael . rosalie : do you have an appointment ? sabrina : oh . i do n't think i need one . i 'm -- i 'm here with his sister . rosalie : oh .

[ laughs ] nathan told you that he loves -- why are n't you squealing with me ? ! wait . this is a good thing . this is a good thing , right ? maxie : yes , obviously . it 's -- it 's amazing that nathan would look at me and say something like that to me . lulu : maxie , you said it back , right ? you told nathan that you love him , too . maxie : n - not at first . there was a lot going on , okay ? the doctor came in and interrupted the moment . look , he -- he came over here this morning , and i told him then . lulu : and how was that ? maxie : beautiful and true . and he -- he looked me in the eye , and he told me that he loved me completely . and he asked me if i felt the same . i told him that was so stupid . of course , i feel the same , you know ? like , he 's -- he 's saved me . he 's helped me save myself . and he 's made me so incredibly happy , and i told him that . i told him that i am absolutely , positively , deeply in love with him . lulu : okay . that 's great . nathan loves you , and you love him . i do n't see what the problem is . maxie : i 'm gon na give you a hint . his name is spinelli . [ scene_break ] spinelli : may i say that , unless i have violated some law of which i am unaware of and you are acting in an official capacity with the full weight of your badge behind you , you have absolutely no right to tell me -- sonny : excuse me , detective west . okay . first of all , i got no beef with you , all right ? on the contrary , you 're my son 's partner . you watch his back . i 'm grateful for that . nathan : he 's got mine , too . sonny : right . then you understand that spinelli , he 's a friend of mine . and i do n't appreciate you telling him where he can and ca n't go . nathan : look , there 's a lot more going on here than you may realize . sonny : then you 'll have no problem if spinelli wants to stay in port charles for as long as he likes . you understand that ? nathan : well , with all due respect , sir , no . [ scene_break ] rosalie : last night ? michael : was n't that long ago , was it ? rosalie : [ stammers ] sorry . i ... did n't get much sleep . um , i -- i know i was here . i 'm just blanking on what it is that i was actually doing . oh ! that 's right . um , i - i -- tracy : michael , i need to talk to you . it 's urgent . what 's going on ? your office , now ! michael : excuse me . rosalie : yeah , no problem . [ door closes ] [ telephone beeps ] tracy : i have bad news . somebody is trying to take over the company . [ scene_break ] anna : how much do you know about duke 's standing with the corinthos organization ? olivia : [ sighs ] well , uh ... i mean , nothing i could testify to in court . anna : oh . no , i 'm not gon na call you as a witness . i just want to know how much i have to explain to you . olivia : i try to keep my nose out of business that does n't concern me . anna : nevertheless , you are aware that when sonny was taken to pentonville , duke agreed to take over the business for him . olivia : mm - hmm . anna : and now that sonny 's embroiled in this custody fight , he wants to be squeaky clean , so ... duke is still in charge . just add that to the list , i suppose . olivia : what list ? anna : oh , god , just the many ways that i despise the fact that duke is involved with the corinthos mob . i mean , i know that sonny is dante 's father . but you wisely elected to keep that fact from him , and thereby , you saved him from a lot of the danger that comes with that way of life . olivia : i tried , anyway . anna : well , the other corinthos children have been less fortunate . the pcpd has extensive files on the ways that their lives have been harmed by sonny 's job . and now michael , you know , he steps up , and he 's trying to save his baby sister from the same fate . and what is sonny 's response ? he misrepresents himself in court as a legitimate businessman . and then duke , of course , you know , he tries to perpetuate that lie , and he presents sonny as this ... safe and stable father , which , of course , he most definitely is not . olivia : so you think it 's okay to keep a baby from a mob daddy even if it means you got to tell some lies to do it ? anna : i think ... any parent has to do whatever is necessary to protect their child . [ scene_break ] nikolas : spencer , listen to me . we still do n't know exactly what happened . spencer : what else is there to know ? cameron was the one who started the fire at my party , and now i 'm disfigured for life . sam : hey , spencer , buddy , come on . nikolas : hey , hey . listen . stop . i do n't want to hear any more talk like that , all right ? as for cameron , all elizabeth said is that he thinks he may have knocked something into the candle when he was getting his gift bag , and if that 's the case , it was an accident . spencer : for one , i do n't believe that . second , he did this on purpose . [ scene_break ] jake : given recent events , uh ... i 'm uniquely qualified to empathize with cameron . elizabeth : [ sighs ] jake : i know what it 's like to have done damage you did n't intend to do . elizabeth : yeah . jake : so i imagine the guilt 's eating him up . poor little guy . he thought he was gon na get arrested . elizabeth : yeah . i had to explain to him that that was n't going to happen . jake : sounds like it was a legitimate accident . elizabeth : but the thing is , it 's not the first time he 's gotten into trouble with fire . a few years ago , he was playing with matches , and he lit the house on fire , and i ... jake : well , that sounds terrifying . elizabeth : my baby jake , was -- he was trapped inside ... i managed to get everyone out , but to say it haunted me afterwards is ... jake : i can imagine . elizabeth : i mean , we all could 've died . you know , one little mistake , and i could 've lost all my boys . [ scene_break ] lulu : i know that spinelli being around has made you question things . maxie : just a little . lulu : and you 're probably wondering if what 's best for all of you is to be a conventional family . maxie : i knew you would get it . look , i -- i keep thinking about all the times i missed frisco -- you know , like the christmases and birthdays and dance recitals that i never heard from him . but i had mac . i mean , thank god for mac . he was the most wonderful , amazing father anyone could ask for . but no matter what , i -- i always missed my real dad , and i do n't want georgie to ever feel that way . lulu : okay . spinelli is nothing like frisco . just because you guys are n't together does not mean that he wo n't be a loving and doting dad . maxie : but what if spinelli and i were together ? i mean , would n't that be what was best for georgie ? and does n't the fact that spinelli is georgie 's father put huge points in his favor ? lulu : not if you do n't love spinelli . you ca n't make georgie the reason you 're together . that 's not fair to her . maxie : i do love spinelli . lulu : but you just said that you love nathan . maxie : i love him , too . i love them both . [ scene_break ] nathan : mr. corinthos -- call me sonny . nathan : sonny ... yeah . look , i understand your friendship with spinelli , but i 'm well within my rights to want him gone . sonny : because of maxie ? nathan : yes , because of maxie . he has been interfering in our relationship since the moment he showed up . sonny : it 's complicated . nathan : yeah . you 're telling me . and maxie 's so confused , she 's spinning . meanwhile , we 're doing fine until he shows up . we 're committed 100 % , and now -- spinelli : apologies for shaking things up . but maximista is the mother of my child . nathan : i get that . i really do . but that does not mean that she 's supposed to be with you . spinelli : oh , i see . so she 's meant to be with you ? nathan : i think so . and i think she thinks so , too , if you 'd just give her some space . look , if you cared about maxie the way you say you do , then you 'd just go and let her move on with her life . sonny : you know what ? i understand your position . but obviously , spinelli does n't -- spinelli : actually , on the contrary ... i have no problem with that plan . [ scene_break ] kiki : what the hell is this ? sabrina : a baby in a stroller . kiki : no . that 's not just any baby . that is my little sister . ugh . did michael actually hire you ? sabrina : yes . i 'm aj 's nanny . kiki : that name -- i swear , if i hear it one more time -- sabrina : i 'm going to call her what her guardian wants her to be called . kiki : her guardian has lost his mind . hiring the woman who tried to kill my sister to be her nanny ? sabrina : my goal was n't to hurt aj . kiki : hello . you tried to induce premature labor . sabrina : i know . but my focus was hurting your mother because of what i thought she 'd done to my son . kiki : oh . okay . yeah . that makes everything better . sabrina : okay , kiki , i promise you , i 'm better now . i would never , ever hurt your sister . if anything , i 'll be working overtime to make it up to her . kiki : you should n't be working with her at all . you should n't be allowed anywhere near her . you are a psycho . sabrina : okay . so , clearly , this conversation is n't gon na get us anywhere . let 's go have coffee somewhere else , yeah ? kiki : no . you 're not going anywhere with my little sister . [ scene_break ] lulu : okay . maxie : okay ? lulu : you love two different men at the same time . maxie : yeah , then , now do you see why i need your advice ? lulu : let 's not panic . maxie : no , lulu , i 'm beyond panicking , okay ? i 'm , like , channeling my mother here . i ca n't choose between my ex and my boyfriend ? lulu : okay . this is a hiccup , yes . it 's not the end of the world . we can figure it out . maxie : we can . lulu : okay , first things first ... maxie : ooh ! a plan ! lulu : yeah , okay . do not tell nathan that you love spinelli . you told nathan that you love spinelli ? ! [ gasps ] maxie : look , he asked me point - blank if i was holding something back . lulu : so ? ! maxie : so is n't , like , the most important thing in a relationship to be honest ? lulu : not that honest ! maxie : what did you want me to do ? lulu : lie ! lie ! it 's one of your best events ! maxie : hey ! lulu : that way , you could 've at least bought yourself some time ! maxie : okay . well , great . all right , next time i find myself in the situation where i love two men at the same time , i 'll remember that . but our current reality is nathan knows . lulu : okay . regroup . regroup . deep breaths . maxie : is this for you or for me ? lulu : okay . wait . what happened when you told nathan ? did he get angry ? maxie : i would n't say he was angry , but he was definitely upset . lulu : and then what happened ? maxie : he walked out of here , and i have n't see him since then . i really hope he does n't run into spinelli . [ scene_break ] nathan : so you see where i 'm coming from . sonny : are you serious ? you 're gon na just bow out , just like that , spinelli ? spinelli : okay , but for the record , your steadfast support means the world to me , m - mr . corinthos , sir . and to clarify , detective west , this problem is not going away . you want maxie , i want maxie , and since we both ca n't have her at the same time , this situation needs to be resolved . nathan : i agree . sonny : and by doing that , you think that you 're just gon na give up the fight ? spinelli : no , no , i am not . [ chuckles ] i am not giving up . nathan : yeah , but you just said -- spinelli : oh , i said that i 'd leave , yes . and i will , on one condition . [ scene_break ] morgan : okay , okay . what 's going on ? huh ? kiki : what does it look like ? sabrina here is trying to leave this restaurant with our baby sister like it 's normal , like it 's not the most insane situation i 've ever encountered . sabrina : i 'm not sure what to do . kiki : well , you could start by speaking as though i 'm actually in the room . morgan : okay . as much as we hate it , michael is avery 's legal guardian , okay ? kiki : for now . and if we ever want to see her again , then we 're not gon na give michael any ammunition against us . kiki : fine . go . sabrina : thank you . morgan : kiki : mm - hmm . you 're welcome . but just so you know , sabrina , this is not over . [ scene_break ] michael : all right , calm down , tracy . is this about the 15.5 % you turned over to jerry jacks ? that 's old news at this point . tracy : no , it 's not . just listen to me . i got ahold of skye . i wanted to know if she 'd had any contact with luke . michael : had she ? tracy : no , not recently . however , a few months ago , luke conned her out of her 16.5 % , and i have no idea what he 's done with it . michael : and skye 's just telling someone about this now ? tracy : yeah . no , why should she warn the family she swears she 's a part of ? but look , the point is that luke is in cahoots with jerry jacks and helena cassadine . what if that 32 % is in the hands of the cassadines ? rosalie : crap , crap , crap , crap , crap , crap . [ scene_break ] nikolas : what makes you think cameron started the fire on purpose ? spencer : do i really need to spell it out ? nikolas : i guess so . spencer : pyromania is cameron 's hobby . the only thing he likes more than playing with origami is playing with matches . and you know it . i do n't hear anyone denying it . that little pyro wanted me out of the way . emma : spencer , that 's not fair . spencer : cameron hates me . patrick : i think `` hate `` is a pretty strong word . spencer : well , it fits . emma : maybe you and cameron do n't get along , but i 'm sure he would never hurt you on purpose . spencer : ca n't you see ? we 're finally together , and cameron ca n't stand it . he could n't just let me be happy .

[ scene_break ] kiki : i just can not believe that the woman who almost forced our sister into this world way too early is now one of her primary caregivers . morgan : okay , but our focus needs to be on getting avery away from michael , so that means we stick to the plan , and i need you to help me out . how do we make michael look like an alcoholic , kiki ? kiki : i ca n't . morgan : you ca n't what ? kiki : i ca n't think about that right now . all i can see is sabrina switching my mom 's medication and sending her into premature labor . morgan : that 's it . you 're a genius , kiki . okay .

[ scene_break ] nathan : you want a boxing match . spinelli : yeah . apropos , given our current surroundings , eh ? and what better way to determining who 's more deserving of maximista . sonny : a crossword puzzle , maybe trivia . i do n't know . spinelli : neither would aptly convey t - t - t - the physical strain of my yearning , you see . nathan : you sure you want to do this . the guy outweighs you like 50 pounds . spinelli : absolutely . i am sure . and you 'd be the first to admit that boxing is about far more than just muscle , right ? there 's a tremendous amount of skill involved . floating like a butterfly , stinging like a bee , as it were ? ! right ? and they do call it the sweet science . sonny : mm - hmm . spinelli : do they not ? named because the practitioners must combine physical prowess with mental acuity . sonny : uh , i would n't put it that way . spinelli : the best boxers are a combination of brains and brawns ! sonny : some of them , yeah . spinelli : right . and my mental prowess far exceeds that of detective west . sonny : yes . that 's very true . spinelli : right ! so let the best man win , as they say ! unless you have any objections . nathan : oh , oh . i got plenty . [ scene_break ] morgan : the whole switching medication thing just gave me an idea , because i think we should do to michael what sabrina did to your mom . kiki : you want to send michael into premature labor ? morgan : no . okay , look . we switch his meds . we switch it with something that reacts badly to alcohol . so the next time michael goes and knocks a few back , we 'll have no problem making him look like a drunk . drunk michael looks like an unfit guardian . unfit michael loses custody of avery . voilá ! avery 's back where she belongs . kiki : so basically , you want to drug your brother . morgan : i know how that sounds ; but , i mean , do you have a better idea ? kiki : no . morgan : okay , then there 's no other option . do you want to save avery or not ? kiki : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] rosalie : uh , can i help you ? sabrina : oh , i 'm here to see michael . rosalie : do you have an appointment ? sabrina : oh . i do n't think i need one . i 'm -- i 'm here with his sister . rosalie : oh .

[ scene_break ] anna : so , it would appear that duke comes here twice a week to have tea in the afternoon ? olivia : uh , yeah , usually . mondays and wednesdays at 4 : 00 . i mean he could come by at a lot of different times , but that 's a standing reservation . anna : and does he always ask his server for the tea box ? olivia : always . anna : where is it stored ? olivia : it 's in the -- the staging area between the dining room and the kitchen . i got to ask -- what is so important about this tea box ? anna : i believe that he 's using it as a cash drop . olivia : in my restaurant ? ! oh . to hell with that . you know , we reserve the right to refuse service to anybody . he can go pick up his dirty mob money somewhere else . anna : if you ban him from this restaurant , that is going to make it that much harder for us to gather evidence ... a - and build a case against duke . olivia : you love duke . you really ready to send him to prison ? we both know what it feels like to love a man who 's chosen a life that we despise . i could never send sonny to prison . i -- i thank god that i 'm not in your position . anna : that 's not the hardest part . olivia : hmm . you still love him . anna : [ voice breaking ] i think i 've loved duke over half my life . even when i thought that he was ... gone . my whole family loves him . emma looks on him as a second grandfather . now with her mother on another continent , i 'm supposed to tell emma that ... her grandma is going to arrest duke and put him in prison . olivia : i am so sorry . anna : me too . [ sniffles ] i think i 'm really doing it for emma , you know , as an example , because , um , i think you have to ... you have to do what 's right . you have to see your duty through . you know ... even if it breaks your heart .

[ previously_on ] faith : then scott kissed abby . like , really kissed her . victoria : well , it sounds like poland is agreeing with everyone . i 'm sure the transition was a little rough -- such a big change and everything . j.t . : well , we 've hit some bumps along the way , but we adjusted . it 's gon na come as a shock to nikki that she 's off the hook with the authorities . victor : do me a favor . do n't let her know that she 's been cleared . i want to convey that news to her myself . i 've been expecting you . welcome back . why did you take the money ? what did you use it for ? nikki : i bought ... a park . victor : good morning . nikki : how was your workout ? victor : great . that a good book ? nikki : not bad . oh , i went over all of our january social engagements , and i will coordinate them with your assistant . victor : all right . [ tablet chimes ] oh , look at this here . this is devon 's press release . nikki : `` victor and nikki newman reunite to save chancellor park . `` all that 's missing is `` and they lived happily ever after . `` although , when you think about it , our story is like a fairy tale in that it 's all a fabrication . victoria : `` the adversity that victor and nikki have endured has only brought them closer together . `` abby : `` their time apart has made them stronger . `` wait , so nikki moved back to the ranch ? victoria : i did n't know , either , until i read this . abby : so you have n't spoken to her or dad ? victoria : no , i have n't , but i 'm dying to know all of the details . i mean , obviously this is very personal for them , and i ca n't be happier that their relationship is back on track . abby : yeah . me , too . and i 'm glad that nikki 's home . i always believed that she made dad a better person . i just hope ... victoria : what ? abby : i just hope it lasts . nick : how did this happen ? when did this happen ? chelsea : okay , i see steam coming out of your ears . what has you so upset ? nick : my parents are the new owners of chancellor park . chelsea : huh . nick : `` huh ? `` that 's your reaction to this ? `` huh ? `` just yesterday , my parents were at each other 's throats with this development . today , they have a united front ? this makes no sense . zero sense . chelsea : i do n't know , i 've given up trying to figure out your parents . does the article say anything about what victor and nikki plan to do with the park ? nick : `` the park will continue to be a memorial to nikki newman 's close friend katherine chancellor while making improvements to become a greater resource to the citizens of genoa city . `` [ laughing ] i mean , what -- oh ! `` victor newman 's very much looking forward to working on this project with his wife . `` are you kidding me ? chelsea : well , listen , one point for the good guys . and -- added bonus -- you do n't have to print out fliers or organize rallies anymore . nick : how did my mom get her hands on this park , and why did n't she tell me about it ? chelsea : i mean , who cares ? she saved it . is n't that what you wanted ? nick : but she 's working on it with my dad ? i -- that article makes it seem like they 're back together . chelsea : like i said , i 've given up trying to figure out your parents . nick : what the hell is going on with them ? nikki : you know , if anybody read this , they would think we 're about to embark on our umpteenth honeymoon , that we worked together to save chancellor park , when in reality , i am the one who outbid you . victor : with the money you embezzled from me . nikki : victor , do n't forget , i promised i would pay you back . victor : yeah . in a manner of speaking . nikki : and i agreed to move back to the ranch . i am playing the devoted wife . i am helping to restore the newman name to its former glory . i would say that i have done more than enough . victor : well , as long as you keep your word , no one will know that you committed a crime . nikki : oh ! goodness . all right . i 've got to go . victor : where are you going ? nikki : i have an appointment with a landscape architect . we 're gon na discuss the park . victor : oh , yeah ? that does n't include me ? nikki : well , you 're not invited . remember , you 're a co - owner in name only . and as per our agreement , i 'm in charge of all decision - making regarding the land . victor : okay . but does n't that look suspicious if i do n't show up at any of those meetings ? nikki : no . not at all . you trust your loving wife to make decisions on your behalf while you are busy running your billion - dollar company . victor : all right . nikki : although , you know , on second thought , you might be right . maybe we should reschedule . i just worry that in your haste to update everyone about our relationship status that you 're gon na be dropping a bombshell on our family and friends , and we need to convince them that this charade is sincere . and we need to do it today . paul : you know , the timing of this newfound closeness between nikki and victor is certainly odd , do n't you think ? j.t . : they 're the definition of `` on again - off again , `` right ? paul : yeah , but as soon as victor 's bank anomaly turned out to be a mistake , it was all back on again . it just does n't smell right . j.t . : maybe the good news of the audit rekindled some old feelings . who knows , right ? paul : right . only in victor 's world does a financial crisis work as an aphrodisiac . you know , i just find it hard to believe that there was n't something you could pin on victor . i mean , the guy 's good at covering his butt , but he 's not that good . j.t . : if he covered up any illegal activities , i could n't find it , and believe me , i tried . paul : i know . you did your best . it 's just that ... you know , i really thought that we were gon na nail him this time . sharon : victor really did a 180 about the park . i suppose it 's possible that nikki changed his mind . scott : yeah , she can be persuasive , but still , it just ... sharon : what ? scott : it does n't add up . sharon : why not ? scott : victor assigned abby and me to find out who the new owner was , and the next thing i know , it 's him and he 's been working with nikki all along . sharon : i agree , that 's odd , but i 'm sure victor had his reasons , no matter how twisted they were . scott : yeah , but -- sharon : do n't drive yourself crazy trying to figure him out . scott : you 're right . and if anything , nick will be happy now that the park is saved . sharon : santa really came through for him , did n't he ? scott : and for you , too . i know how much you wanted to preserve that land , as well . question is -- how am i gon na top that one ? sharon : do n't worry . you are the only christmas present i need . scott : mm . mariah : save it for the mistletoe . sharon : [ gasps ] oh ! scott : [ laughing ] oh ! sharon : you ... look ... mariah : ridiculous . scott : [ sighs ] sharon : i was gon na say christmas - y ! mariah : you know what , i 'm gon na stick with ridiculous . scott : what 's the occasion ? mariah : `` the hilary hour `` christmas episode . sharon : you 're going to be wearing that on tv ? mariah : coast to coast ! sharon : [ giggling ] mariah : no , it 's fine . laugh it up ! it 's funny . it 's hysterical . sharon : i 'm sorry ! i 'm sorry ! mariah : do n't be . you know what , you are proving my point . sharon : oh , who are you calling , frosty ? mariah : close ! i 'm calling hilary to tell her i quit . my dad 's . victor : hi , my sweetheart . victoria : hi , daddy . victor : so , i hear that your negotiations in hong kong were a great success . victoria : thank you . victor : thank you . victoria : but you know , that is so not what i want to discuss . victor : oh , yeah ? what do you want to discuss ? victoria : you and mom are back together ? victor : [ chuckles ] well , she finally came to her senses , yes . victoria : okay , dad , well , you 're being just a little bit vague right now . victor : well , your mother apologized for having betrayed me and , uh , i let it be known that i would n't mind having her back in my life . you know , i never stopped loving your mother , you know that . victoria : i do . it 's just a rather abrupt turn of events , though . victor : love makes one do crazy things . victoria : i 'm not gon na argue that at all . how did she react when you told her that j.t . was n't following through with the embezzlement charges ? victor : oh , obviously much relieved . i mean , imagine you suddenly realize that you 're no longer being prosecuted . that 's an enormous weight off your shoulders , you know . victoria : another curious turn of events . chancellor park development . victor : oh . victoria : it seems that one minute , you said you would n't let anything stand in your way , and then the next minute , you seem ... victor : well , as you know , your mother and i always had an enormous fondness for katherine . victoria : you let mom outbid you ? victor : we teamed up . i helped her finance the project . i want to make your mother happy . that is more important to me than developing some site to put some condos on . i can do that anywhere . nick : so , after everything that 's gone down , suddenly you run back to dad . i do n't buy it . nikki : why not ? are n't you the one who predicted it ? because it 's our pattern ? well , i guess you were right . i realized being victor 's adversary was making me miserable . i 'm happier with him than i am without him . nick : and you figured all this out after you stole the money or after he summoned you to the ranch ? nikki : well , he did n't brainwash me . nick : what did he say to make you suddenly turn on a dime ? nikki : i told you ! nick : look , that explanation may fool everyone else . it 's not fooling me . okay . in case you have n't noticed , i have a lot of time on my hands , so ... we 're not going anywhere until you tell me the truth . mariah : hey ! hey ! give it back ! sharon : i will , as soon as you cool off . no pun intended . mariah : fine . i 'm ... i 'm calm . i 'm cool and collected . may i please have my phone back ? sharon : not until we discuss your decision to quit the gc buzz . mariah : i thought you were supposed to support my decisions ! sharon : mm , only the good ones . mariah : i would say that getting away from hilary and her constant torture is an excellent one . sharon : torture is a little over - the - top , do n't you think ? mariah : uh , no ! i do n't think ! do you forget the part where she tripped me on live television ? she goes out of her way to sabotage segments . i mean , she threw pasta sauce on me in one of them . the only reason that she wants me to wear this is to embarrass me , and if i do n't put an end to it , it 's only gon na get worse ! sharon : i understand , okay ? and quitting may seem like the right thing in the moment , and it may even teach hilary a lesson , but then what are you gon na do after that ? mariah : find another job where i 'm not constantly humiliated . sharon : such as ? mariah : i mean , this is ridiculous ! i am the on - air host of a nationally syndicated television show . i can find another job ! sharon : just like that ? mariah : i do n't see why not . sharon : okay , well , let 's ask someone who has some experience in your field . scott ? scott : huh ? sharon : is it really that easy to go out there and get another job ? scott : eh , it can be tough . there 's a lot of competition out there . sharon : after you were ... after you came back to genoa city , it was a while before you started working as a reporter again , right ? scott : case in point . sharon : okay , and i 'm sure you had a lot of ups and downs even before that . i mean , you did n't start your career covering major international events and war zones , did you ? scott : no , hardly . i mean , the worst job i had was when i was at grad school . i was interning for a newspaper in toronto writing obituaries and typing in classified ads . this one day , i was really tired and i got the two of them confused , and i ended up ... and i 'll save that story for another day . sharon : i do n't want you staying at a job that makes you miserable , honey . i just want you to consider the consequences of your actions . mariah : fine . message received and processed . i will have a rational discussion with hilary about not wearing this monstrosity . and if that does n't work , i 'm gon na shove it down her -- i 'm kidding . i 'm kidding ! kidding . partially . because if she does n't budge then quitting is still on the table because i can not be the only one who compromises . sharon : fair enough . obits and classifieds ? i thought i knew everything about you . scott : [ chuckles ] mariah : i bet there 's a lot you do n't know . nick : you want ham or turkey ? on your sandwich . 'cause it looks like we 're gon na be here for a while , so i might as well feed you . nikki : [ scoffs ] i could have walked out the door while you were in the kitchen , nicholas . nick : nah . child - proof locks . practically takes a magician to get out , so ... crust or no crust ? nikki : you ca n't keep me hostage . nick : you know what , mom , you 're right . you can leave whenever you want , but just know i 'm gon na follow you . i do n't care where you go -- the salon , the club , charity meetings -- i 'm gon na be right behind you asking you `` why ? why ? why ? `` nikki : all right ! because victor promised to keep me out of prison , okay ? nick : so he blackmailed you into coming home ? nikki : turnabout is fair play . nick : and that means what exactly ? nikki : when he brought chloe back to genoa city , i held that over his head for months . nick : well , that 's different . you did n't force him to move out or make any public appearances . nikki : even though he did force my hand , i have to admit , i 'm very happy being back at the ranch . nick : mm . are you trying to convince me or yourself ? nikki : i 'm serious . i 've missed being the matriarch of the newman family , and to see much more of the grandchildren when they come to visit for christmas . nick : hmm . so it 's not seasonal nostalgia or you breaking up with jack as a factor ? nikki : well , come on , it 's not like i was sitting around watching sappy holiday movies eating gingerbread cookies waiting for the phone to ring . nick : sorry . still trying to process this . nikki : look , this is beneficial to me , and i 'm going to take advantage of that , and i keep my independence . my relationship with your father will strictly be -- nick : what , it 's gon na be different this time ? am i the only one experience déjà vu here ? nikki : it will be . nick : how ? nikki : i have no illusions that he 's ever going to change . but i have . nick : you say that , but you still bought chancellor park with him . nikki : well , actually ... i was the mystery buyer . nick : you ? nikki : yep . and it was quite the thrill . and i 'm hungry to do more . i mean , let 's face it , how many charity luncheons can i organize ? i feel like there are things that i can do that i 've never done before . and i feel that i can make a change for the better in so many things . nick : that 's great , but i 'm still confused . nikki : about what ? nick : the article made it sound like you teamed up with dad , like he was bidding against himself . nikki : oh , victor wanted people to think that , so i humored him . i guess it 's kind of true , though . since i bought the park using every penny that i stole from him . oh , but it was worth it . you should have seen the look on his face when i told him . [ laughing ] oh ! scott : no more snowman outfit ? mariah : nope . scott : [ sighs ] things are , uh , a little awkward between us . mariah : yeah . maybe that 's because you kissed another woman behind my mom 's back . scott : look , i want to reiterate , there 's nothing going on with abby . mariah : you 're staying away from her ? scott : the only interaction we have is work - related , so i hope one day you and i can be cordial to each other again . [ cellphone chimes ] mariah : oh , my gosh . hilary agreed , and i managed to convince her that the snowman outfit is off - brand and not appropriate for the new and improved `` hilary hour . `` scott : congrats . so that means you 're not quitting ? mariah : no . sharon was right . i had a knee - jerk reaction . which is funny because snowmen do n't have knees . scott : ah ! mariah : ah ! scott : hilary 's lucky . you are an asset to the show . mariah : you watch ? scott : occasionally . that segment you did last week exposing the restaurant who falsely claimed that their food was locally sourced ? that was an impressive story . mariah : i mean , i guess ... scott : and if you ever do end up quitting , i might have to snap you up for hashtag . mariah : see , you almost had me going with all the flattery , but then you showed your cards too soon when you offered me a job . scott : i 'm not following . mariah : you 're trying to buy my silence . scott : no . no . you 've got it all wrong . i 'm actually -- i just wanted to -- sharon : i enter the room , and you stop talking ? that 's not suspicious . what 's the big secret ? scott : we may or may not have been talking about christmas gifts . sharon : oh ? mariah : yeah . yes , we were . and i have a feeling that there 's going to be a lot of them under the tree this year . expensive , shiny ones . scott : [ sighs ] abby : hi , dad . it 's me . i just wanted to let you know that the meeting went well , and i will write up a report and have it to you by the end of the day . also , um , well , i read about you and nikki getting back together . i 'm very happy for you . both of you . i just -- i wish you had told me yourself . well , i will try calling you back later . i love you . bye . you know , i am still not interested in becoming fodder for your gossip show . mariah : are you interested in scott ? abby : scott grainger ? mariah : bingo . abby : he 's a jerk . mariah : well , you two hang out together a lot . abby : well , if you consider working together `` hanging out , `` which i don't . where is this coming from ? mariah : my mom is the happiest she 's been in a long time , and i intend to keep it that way . abby : and what does that have to do with me ? mariah : well , i 've seen the way that you and scott are when you 're together . it makes me wonder if something is going on between the two of you . abby : there 's not . mariah : okay . you ca n't blame me for jumping to conclusions . i mean , you do have a history of being the other woman . abby : you know what , mariah , we 've come a long way . i would even consider us friends ... ish . but if you keep it up , we 'll quickly become enemies . your choice . victoria : the money you stole from dad , you used to buy the park and deep - six our development . nikki : honey , please do n't be upset . i had to do it . for katherine . victoria : i 'm not upset . much . nikki : and you do n't have to worry . victoria : worry ? nikki : about being an accessory because you knew i had stolen the money . i am taking full responsibility for what i did , okay ? so i alone will pay for my crime . victoria : mom , you 're not making any sense . nikki : your father made the charges go away . i just had to agree to move back into the ranch . i know i 'm trading one prison for another , but at least i get my normal life back . victoria : i 'm so confused right now . dad was supposed to tell you that j.t . lied to paul . he submitted a report that said that the anomaly was a banking error . nikki : what ? no , no . that 's not what happened . victoria : yeah , it is , mom . i tried to call you to tell you . nikki : well , i tried to call you , and your father said that you were tied up on a business trip . victoria : he assured me that he was gon na tell you . okay , well , now it makes sense why he sent me to hong kong on such short notice , so i could n't tell you that you were off the hook . and he knew that i would n't e - mail or text because there would be a paper trail . nikki : what ? oh , my god . he lied so he could blackmail me into moving back in with him . that bastard ! nick : so my dad is blackmailing my mom , and for some reason , she is going along with it . and i do n't for one second believe she agreed to this unholy alliance just so she can spend more time with the grandchildren . she could have done that without moving back in with him . chelsea : i do n't know , maybe your mom 's just trying to make the best of a bad situation . nick : every day that she is there gives dad more opportunities to break down her defenses . chelsea : so you 're afraid if nikki forgives victor for all of his past sins , then this arrangement could become a true marriage ? nick : look , i really want my mom to be happy . but we both know happiness with my dad is short - lived . it 's just a matter of time before he hurts her again . mariah : what are you doing ? we 're not done here . abby : yes , we are . j.t . : sorry to interrupt . abby : j.t . ! hi ! mariah : let me shorthand for you -- cassie 's twin , separated at birth , we 're nothing alike . and i do n't mind playing dirty to protect the ones i love . j.t . : um ... what was that about ? and cassie had a twin ? abby : it 's not even worth getting into . what are you doing back in town ? j.t . : oh , you do n't know ? abby : should i ? j.t . : oh , i just thought maybe victoria or victor might have mentioned something . abby : uh , well , v - squared tend to keep me out of the loop these days . j.t . : all right , well , in that case , why do n't i buy you a drink and we can play catch - up ? yeah ? white wine ? abby : why not ? j.t . : all right . scotch and a white whine . thanks . j.t . : royal castle grounds . d.j . loved the fountains . sharon : oh , no ! did he fall in ? j.t . : uh , jumped , actually , and then ran to the middle , so guess who had to go in after him ? sharon : [ gasps ] you 're all wet ! j.t . : and becca , she could not get enough of the flowers . sharon : oh , look at those cheeks ! and her cute little dress . is n't it adorable , abby ? j.t . : see it ? abby : so cute . yeah . j.t . : all right , now i 'm gon na put these away before you guys get bored seeing family pictures . sharon : [ chuckles ] j.t . : [ sighs ] can you believe i got three kids , scott ? scott : no . you settling into family life ? never . scott : yeah , well , i guess we both changed , huh ? because the scott i knew was a writer . sharon : oh , he still is ! tell him , scott . scott : nah , j.t . does n't want to hear about all that . sharon : you 're too modest . he runs hashtag . it 's an online news outlet . j.t . : ah , well , i mean , my , uh , reading 's been limited to mostly kids books these days , but ... sharon : well , his story about a sex - trafficking ring is worth checking out . scott : sharon ... sharon : we were all three involved in bringing it down in one way or another , but the worst part of the story was when scott and abby got trapped in a storage unit together by the perpetrator who turned out to be -- scott : j.t . , you know , you can read it all online , and i 'll even send you the link . sharon : would n't be surprised if you win a pulitzer for it . scott : oh , sharon , you 're embarrassing me ... sharon : i ca n't help it . j.t . : how long have you guys been dating ? sharon : seven months . scott : a few months . sharon : [ laughs ] scott : yeah . sharon : typical , right ? the female can tell you the exact amount of time , but the male , not so much . am i right , abby ? abby : right . yeah . scott : we should get to our table before they give it away to someone else . j.t . : well , good seeing you both . scott : good to see you , too . sharon : you , too . take care . j.t . : all right . take care . yep . well , who would have thought those two would end up together ? abby : not me . victor : how was your day ? nikki : informative . victor : oh , yeah ? nikki : you are and always have been a very sly devil , victor newman . victor : so , in what way was i sly today ? nikki : i had a very interesting conversation with victoria . victor : mm . nikki : and it turns out j.t . filed his report clearing both of us before you offered me this deal . victor : ah , did he now ? nikki : oh , cut the act . you knew it , and you used it to your advantage . now , our pact is suppose to be based on honesty . you 've already broken the rules , which is no surprise . but it proves that i still ca n't trust you . victor : does that mean you 're gon na move out ? [ laughter ] j.t . : i think i have another one , hold on . abby : oh , my gosh . [ laughs ] scott : what do you think 's going on between those two ? sharon : nothing . they used to be family , and he 's married . scott : yeah , still . she should proceed with caution . the guy used to have quite a reputation . sharon : after what happened with zack , i doubt that abby will be getting herself into another sticky situation . scott : good point . from now on , you have my complete and undivided attention . so , what else is on the christmas menu ? sharon : um , here , i have a list somewhere . let me find it . j.t . : it was a short - term job , and now that i 'm done , i 'm taking off tomorrow . abby : ah , no wonder my dad and victoria did n't tell me . so , what is it like being back in genoa city ? j.t . : ah . abby : has it changed much ? j.t . : well , you know , i 've been so busy , i have n't had a chance to check out my old haunts , but ... i will say this , one thing has definitely changed . abby : and what 's that ? j.t . : not what . who . abby : me ? j.t . : yeah . yeah . abby : ah ! j.t . : you 're a high - powered newman executive now , and you wear it very well . abby : thank you . j.t . : yeah . so , where are all the good spots these days ? mm ! tell me . tell me that dive bar jimmy 's is still around . abby : i would n't know . the last time i was there was for one of billy 's halloween bashes . j.t . : oh , yeah ? you too high - class to slum it these days ? abby : no . too busy . and the top of the tower is very convenient . it 's just an elevator ride away from my office . j.t . : yeah , well , then what are you doing here ? abby : slumming it . j.t . : exactly . [ laughter ] hey , i do n't have any plans tonight , and unless you got to turn in early , why do n't we go check out a couple of those places together ? abby : are you asking me out on a date ? hi , i 'm mike ditka . abby : you know what , i 'm gon na leave before this gets more awkward . j.t . : abby , you misunderstood me . abby : doubtful . j.t . : that 's not what i meant . abby : look , i 'm out of here . j.t . : no , you -- you just misinterpreted this entire conversation . abby : `` let 's check out some places together ? `` it 's pretty clear what you meant . i 'm not an idiot . sharon : martha stewart 's got nothing on me . [ giggles ] [ cellphone chimes ] oh ! oh , that 's faith . scott : is everything okay ? sharon : yeah , she wants me to pick up some supplies for her art project . let me just text her back real quick . scott : sure . abby : why do n't you dust off those skills and get a clue ? i am not interested in going out with a married man . j.t . : abby , i do n't want to go out with you . i want to hang out with you . there 's a big difference . abby : not to me . j.t . : come on . we have known each other forever . why would n't i want to spend some time with you ? abby : uh , i can think of three reasons off the top of my head . one , you 're married to mac . two , you used to be married to my sister . and , three -- oh , yeah , you were the love of colleen 's life . so , no , i 'm not interested in going out or hanging out or doing whatever with you . you need to keep an eye on your ex - husband . victoria : what ? what did billy do now ? abby : not billy . your other ex . j.t . made a pass at me . chelsea : you had a rough day , huh ? nick : does this answer your question ? chelsea : well , maybe you should open an early christmas present . maybe that will make you feel better . nick : hey , if it 's the biggest one under the tree , let 's do it . chelsea : you 're looking in the wrong place . nick : that 's a hell of a gift . this is exactly what i wanted . chelsea : ah , ah , ah ! do n't you know the rules about opening presents ? you have to unwrap them first before you get to play with them . victoria : i ran into abby on the way in . j.t . : yeah ? victoria : is there something you want to tell me ? j.t . : did she tell you i was hitting on her ? victoria : [ scoffs ] did you ? j.t . : no . no . she took an innocent invitation and she twisted it . i wanted to check out a few places around town . she was .... here , drinking alone . i was on my own , and i thought we could have a little fun . innocent fun . on my last night in town . victoria : you 're leaving tomorrow ? did it ever occur to you to skip the clubs and spend some time with your son ? j.t . : it 's a late flight . i can see reed tomorrow . victoria : good . so , why the rush to leave ? j.t . : job 's done , you know ? no reason to stick around any longer than i have to , and ... i got to move on to the next adventure . victoria : back to mac and the kids . j.t . : yeah . that 's a given . victoria : is it ? j.t . : [ clears throat ] have you taken johnny and katie to see santa yet ? victoria : [ sighs ] you 're avoiding my question . j.t . : i 'm changing the subject . victoria : look , if there 's a problem , you can tell me . and if it affects reed , you should definitely tell me . j.t . : mac and i separated . victoria : what ? j.t . : yep . victoria : i 'm so sorry . i do n't know what to say . j.t . : there 's nothing to say . victoria : i just always assumed that things between you and mac were solid . j.t . : me , too . i guess i was wrong . [ laughs ] things were n't that good before we went to poland , and , you know , when we got there , it went downhill . so she ... took the kids and went back to d.c . victoria : does reed know ? j.t . : no . this is actually the first time i 'm saying it out loud . victoria : why did you tell me everything was fine ? j.t . : i do n't know , i guess i was ... i was embarrassed , i guess . victoria : is there anything else you have n't told me ? j.t . : the real reason i took the job in genoa city is i ... i lost my full - time job . nick : time to play . chelsea : i almost forgot . nick : what ? chelsea : santa let me borrow his list , and , um ... nick : oh , you 've been naughty . chelsea : well , according to santa , nicholas newman ... you 've been very , very nice . sharon : if you ask me , i 'd say abby was overreacting about j.t . scott : [ sighs ] his character speaks for itself . just because he 's married , it does n't mean he 's changed . sharon : he loves mac . and mac loves him . the two of them literally rode off into the sunset together . i think there 's something else going on with abby . scott : like what ? sharon : at the crisis hotline , we were taught that sometimes when people overreact , it 's because they do n't have the courage to say what 's really bothering them . nikki : [ sighs ] victor : so , this is your answer , i suppose . nikki : i could kick myself for being drawn back into this house , believing you again . no , this is empty . i just brought it down for bonnie for her to put in storage . victor : mm . so this was done for dramatic effect , then . nikki : i was merely being kind and courteous , saving her a trip upstairs , okay ? victor : mm . nikki : you know what i realized while i was unpacking ? j.t . 's report does n't really mean anything because one phone call from you to christine , she rips me away from my family . victor : and the city would declare the sale on the park null and void . nikki : and i would have nothing . victor : wise decision . nikki : well , i 'm so happy to have your approval . you know what else i realized ? victor : what ? nikki : i am in a precarious position , but so are you . victor : oh , yeah ? in what way ? nikki : i could call paul at any time and tell him that you 're the one who brought chloe back to town , and you also helped break adam out of prison . victor : let 's drink to each other . together , we make a formidable couple , do n't we ? j.t . : well , you have been awfully quiet . i 'm beginning to regret opening my big mouth . victoria : no . no . i 'm actually glad you did . it 's just what do you say when your ex tells you that his marriage is over and he 's unemployed ? j.t . : `` i 'm buying the next round ? `` victoria : [ chuckles ] if you feel like sharing , i 'm a little bit curious . j.t . : how it all went to hell ? yeah , you want me to start with the job or mackenzie ? victoria : mac . i just ca n't wrap my head around it . j.t . : we , uh ... we wanted different things . grew apart . was n't anybody 's fault . what kills me is not being around my kids . all of them . [ sighs ] all right , uh , my work here is done . i 've , uh , successfully bummed you out , as well as myself . so thanks for listening . happy holidays . tell reed i will call him in the morning . victoria : j.t . no one should be alone during the holidays . why do n't you stay ? you can spend christmas with reed . and me . | nikki and victor published a press release saying that they teamed up to save chancellor park . victoria and abby saw the statement and were pleased that victor and nikki had reunited . victor lead victoria to believe he 'd told nikki that jt had decided not to turn her in . nick questioned nikki about her abrupt reconciliation with victor . nikki admitted that victor blackmailed her into returning to the ranch , but she assured nick that she was happy with the arrangement . nikki told nick that she was the one who outbid victor and bought the park . a concerned nick told chelsea that it was just a matter of time before victor broke down nikki 's defenses and hurt her again . chelsea cheered nick up with some romance . paul thought victor and nikki 's sudden reunion was odd . he was disappointed that jt could n't find something to nail victor . nikki told victoria why she 'd gone back to victor . victoria told nikki that jt , not victor , was the one who made the charges go away . nikki confronted victor about his lies . she decided to stay at the ranch since victor could still tell the authorities what she 'd done . nikki noted that she could turn victor in for breaking adam out of prison or bringing chloe to town . victor and nikki toasted to themselves being a formidable couple . mariah decided to quit her job because hilary made her dress up as a snowman for the show . sharon urged mariah not to be hasty . mariah and hilary came to a compromise , and mariah decided not to quit . mariah hinted that scott was keeping things from sharon . scott took mariah aside and assured her that there was nothing going on between him and abby . scott praised the work mariah did on the hilary hour and said he 'd be interested in hiring her at hashtag . mariah accused him of trying to buy her silence . sharon walked in on the conversation , but mariah and scott came up with a cover story . | <s>[INST] [ previously_on ] faith : then scott kissed abby . like , really kissed her . victoria : well , it sounds like poland is agreeing with everyone . i 'm sure the transition was a little rough -- such a big change and everything . j.t . : well , we 've hit some bumps along the way , but we adjusted . it 's gon na come as a shock to nikki that she 's off the hook with the authorities . victor : do me a favor . do n't let her know that she 's been cleared . i want to convey that news to her myself . i 've been expecting you . welcome back . why did you take the money ? what did you use it for ? nikki : i bought ... a park . victor : good morning . nikki : how was your workout ? victor : great . that a good book ? nikki : not bad . oh , i went over all of our january social engagements , and i will coordinate them with your assistant . victor : all right . [ tablet chimes ] oh , look at this here . this is devon 's press release . nikki : `` victor and nikki newman reunite to save chancellor park . `` all that 's missing is `` and they lived happily ever after . `` although , when you think about it , our story is like a fairy tale in that it 's all a fabrication . victoria : `` the adversity that victor and nikki have endured has only brought them closer together . `` abby : `` their time apart has made them stronger . `` wait , so nikki moved back to the ranch ? victoria : i did n't know , either , until i read this . abby : so you have n't spoken to her or dad ? victoria : no , i have n't , but i 'm dying to know all of the details . i mean , obviously this is very personal for them , and i ca n't be happier that their relationship is back on track . abby : yeah . me , too . and i 'm glad that nikki 's home . i always believed that she made dad a better person . i just hope ... victoria : what ? abby : i just hope it lasts . nick : how did this happen ? when did this happen ? chelsea : okay , i see steam coming out of your ears . what has you so upset ? nick : my parents are the new owners of chancellor park . chelsea : huh . nick : `` huh ? `` that 's your reaction to this ? `` huh ? `` just yesterday , my parents were at each other 's throats with this development . today , they have a united front ? this makes no sense . zero sense . chelsea : i do n't know , i 've given up trying to figure out your parents . does the article say anything about what victor and nikki plan to do with the park ? nick : `` the park will continue to be a memorial to nikki newman 's close friend katherine chancellor while making improvements to become a greater resource to the citizens of genoa city . `` [ laughing ] i mean , what -- oh ! `` victor newman 's very much looking forward to working on this project with his wife . `` are you kidding me ? chelsea : well , listen , one point for the good guys . and -- added bonus -- you do n't have to print out fliers or organize rallies anymore . nick : how did my mom get her hands on this park , and why did n't she tell me about it ? chelsea : i mean , who cares ? she saved it . is n't that what you wanted ? nick : but she 's working on it with my dad ? i -- that article makes it seem like they 're back together . chelsea : like i said , i 've given up trying to figure out your parents . nick : what the hell is going on with them ? nikki : you know , if anybody read this , they would think we 're about to embark on our umpteenth honeymoon , that we worked together to save chancellor park , when in reality , i am the one who outbid you . victor : with the money you embezzled from me . nikki : victor , do n't forget , i promised i would pay you back . victor : yeah . in a manner of speaking . nikki : and i agreed to move back to the ranch . i am playing the devoted wife . i am helping to restore the newman name to its former glory . i would say that i have done more than enough . victor : well , as long as you keep your word , no one will know that you committed a crime . nikki : oh ! goodness . all right . i 've got to go . victor : where are you going ? nikki : i have an appointment with a landscape architect . we 're gon na discuss the park . victor : oh , yeah ? that does n't include me ? nikki : well , you 're not invited . remember , you 're a co - owner in name only . and as per our agreement , i 'm in charge of all decision - making regarding the land . victor : okay . but does n't that look suspicious if i do n't show up at any of those meetings ? nikki : no . not at all . you trust your loving wife to make decisions on your behalf while you are busy running your billion - dollar company . victor : all right . nikki : although , you know , on second thought , you might be right . maybe we should reschedule . i just worry that in your haste to update everyone about our relationship status that you 're gon na be dropping a bombshell on our family and friends , and we need to convince them that this charade is sincere . and we need to do it today . paul : you know , the timing of this newfound closeness between nikki and victor is certainly odd , do n't you think ? j.t . : they 're the definition of `` on again - off again , `` right ? paul : yeah , but as soon as victor 's bank anomaly turned out to be a mistake , it was all back on again . it just does n't smell right . j.t . : maybe the good news of the audit rekindled some old feelings . who knows , right ? paul : right . only in victor 's world does a financial crisis work as an aphrodisiac . you know , i just find it hard to believe that there was n't something you could pin on victor . i mean , the guy 's good at covering his butt , but he 's not that good . j.t . : if he covered up any illegal activities , i could n't find it , and believe me , i tried . paul : i know . you did your best . it 's just that ... you know , i really thought that we were gon na nail him this time . sharon : victor really did a 180 about the park . i suppose it 's possible that nikki changed his mind . scott : yeah , she can be persuasive , but still , it just ... sharon : what ? scott : it does n't add up . sharon : why not ? scott : victor assigned abby and me to find out who the new owner was , and the next thing i know , it 's him and he 's been working with nikki all along . sharon : i agree , that 's odd , but i 'm sure victor had his reasons , no matter how twisted they were . scott : yeah , but -- sharon : do n't drive yourself crazy trying to figure him out . scott : you 're right . and if anything , nick will be happy now that the park is saved . sharon : santa really came through for him , did n't he ? scott : and for you , too . i know how much you wanted to preserve that land , as well . question is -- how am i gon na top that one ? sharon : do n't worry . you are the only christmas present i need . scott : mm . mariah : save it for the mistletoe . sharon : [ gasps ] oh ! scott : [ laughing ] oh ! sharon : you ... look ... mariah : ridiculous . scott : [ sighs ] sharon : i was gon na say christmas - y ! mariah : you know what , i 'm gon na stick with ridiculous . scott : what 's the occasion ? mariah : `` the hilary hour `` christmas episode . sharon : you 're going to be wearing that on tv ? mariah : coast to coast ! sharon : [ giggling ] mariah : no , it 's fine . laugh it up ! it 's funny . it 's hysterical . sharon : i 'm sorry ! i 'm sorry ! mariah : do n't be . you know what , you are proving my point . sharon : oh , who are you calling , frosty ? mariah : close ! i 'm calling hilary to tell her i quit . my dad 's . victor : hi , my sweetheart . victoria : hi , daddy . victor : so , i hear that your negotiations in hong kong were a great success . victoria : thank you . victor : thank you . victoria : but you know , that is so not what i want to discuss . victor : oh , yeah ? what do you want to discuss ? victoria : you and mom are back together ? victor : [ chuckles ] well , she finally came to her senses , yes . victoria : okay , dad , well , you 're being just a little bit vague right now . victor : well , your mother apologized for having betrayed me and , uh , i let it be known that i would n't mind having her back in my life . you know , i never stopped loving your mother , you know that . victoria : i do . it 's just a rather abrupt turn of events , though . victor : love makes one do crazy things . victoria : i 'm not gon na argue that at all . how did she react when you told her that j.t . was n't following through with the embezzlement charges ? victor : oh , obviously much relieved . i mean , imagine you suddenly realize that you 're no longer being prosecuted . that 's an enormous weight off your shoulders , you know . victoria : another curious turn of events . chancellor park development . victor : oh . victoria : it seems that one minute , you said you would n't let anything stand in your way , and then the next minute , you seem ... victor : well , as you know , your mother and i always had an enormous fondness for katherine . victoria : you let mom outbid you ? victor : we teamed up . i helped her finance the project . i want to make your mother happy . that is more important to me than developing some site to put some condos on . i can do that anywhere . nick : so , after everything that 's gone down , suddenly you run back to dad . i do n't buy it . nikki : why not ? are n't you the one who predicted it ? because it 's our pattern ? well , i guess you were right . i realized being victor 's adversary was making me miserable . i 'm happier with him than i am without him . nick : and you figured all this out after you stole the money or after he summoned you to the ranch ? nikki : well , he did n't brainwash me . nick : what did he say to make you suddenly turn on a dime ? nikki : i told you ! nick : look , that explanation may fool everyone else . it 's not fooling me . okay . in case you have n't noticed , i have a lot of time on my hands , so ... we 're not going anywhere until you tell me the truth . mariah : hey ! hey ! give it back ! sharon : i will , as soon as you cool off . no pun intended . mariah : fine . i 'm ... i 'm calm . i 'm cool and collected . may i please have my phone back ? sharon : not until we discuss your decision to quit the gc buzz . mariah : i thought you were supposed to support my decisions ! sharon : mm , only the good ones . mariah : i would say that getting away from hilary and her constant torture is an excellent one . sharon : torture is a little over - the - top , do n't you think ? mariah : uh , no ! i do n't think ! do you forget the part where she tripped me on live television ? she goes out of her way to sabotage segments . i mean , she threw pasta sauce on me in one of them . the only reason that she wants me to wear this is to embarrass me , and if i do n't put an end to it , it 's only gon na get worse ! sharon : i understand , okay ? and quitting may seem like the right thing in the moment , and it may even teach hilary a lesson , but then what are you gon na do after that ? mariah : find another job where i 'm not constantly humiliated . sharon : such as ? mariah : i mean , this is ridiculous ! i am the on - air host of a nationally syndicated television show . i can find another job ! sharon : just like that ? mariah : i do n't see why not . sharon : okay , well , let 's ask someone who has some experience in your field . scott ? scott : huh ? sharon : is it really that easy to go out there and get another job ? scott : eh , it can be tough . there 's a lot of competition out there . sharon : after you were ... after you came back to genoa city , it was a while before you started working as a reporter again , right ? scott : case in point . sharon : okay , and i 'm sure you had a lot of ups and downs even before that . i mean , you did n't start your career covering major international events and war zones , did you ? scott : no , hardly . i mean , the worst job i had was when i was at grad school . i was interning for a newspaper in toronto writing obituaries and typing in classified ads . this one day , i was really tired and i got the two of them confused , and i ended up ... and i 'll save that story for another day . sharon : i do n't want you staying at a job that makes you miserable , honey . i just want you to consider the consequences of your actions . mariah : fine . message received and processed . i will have a rational discussion with hilary about not wearing this monstrosity . and if that does n't work , i 'm gon na shove it down her -- i 'm kidding . i 'm kidding ! kidding . partially . because if she does n't budge then quitting is still on the table because i can not be the only one who compromises . sharon : fair enough . obits and classifieds ? i thought i knew everything about you . scott : [ chuckles ] mariah : i bet there 's a lot you do n't know . nick : you want ham or turkey ? on your sandwich . 'cause it looks like we 're gon na be here for a while , so i might as well feed you . nikki : [ scoffs ] i could have walked out the door while you were in the kitchen , nicholas . nick : nah . child - proof locks . practically takes a magician to get out , so ... crust or no crust ? nikki : you ca n't keep me hostage . nick : you know what , mom , you 're right . you can leave whenever you want , but just know i 'm gon na follow you . i do n't care where you go -- the salon , the club , charity meetings -- i 'm gon na be right behind you asking you `` why ? why ? why ? `` nikki : all right ! because victor promised to keep me out of prison , okay ? nick : so he blackmailed you into coming home ? nikki : turnabout is fair play . nick : and that means what exactly ? nikki : when he brought chloe back to genoa city , i held that over his head for months . nick : well , that 's different . you did n't force him to move out or make any public appearances . nikki : even though he did force my hand , i have to admit , i 'm very happy being back at the ranch . nick : mm . are you trying to convince me or yourself ? nikki : i 'm serious . i 've missed being the matriarch of the newman family , and to see much more of the grandchildren when they come to visit for christmas . nick : hmm . so it 's not seasonal nostalgia or you breaking up with jack as a factor ? nikki : well , come on , it 's not like i was sitting around watching sappy holiday movies eating gingerbread cookies waiting for the phone to ring . nick : sorry . still trying to process this . nikki : look , this is beneficial to me , and i 'm going to take advantage of that , and i keep my independence . my relationship with your father will strictly be -- nick : what , it 's gon na be different this time ? am i the only one experience déjà vu here ? nikki : it will be . nick : how ? nikki : i have no illusions that he 's ever going to change . but i have . nick : you say that , but you still bought chancellor park with him . nikki : well , actually ... i was the mystery buyer . nick : you ? nikki : yep . and it was quite the thrill . and i 'm hungry to do more . i mean , let 's face it , how many charity luncheons can i organize ? i feel like there are things that i can do that i 've never done before . and i feel that i can make a change for the better in so many things . nick : that 's great , but i 'm still confused . nikki : about what ? nick : the article made it sound like you teamed up with dad , like he was bidding against himself . nikki : oh , victor wanted people to think that , so i humored him . i guess it 's kind of true , though . since i bought the park using every penny that i stole from him . oh , but it was worth it . you should have seen the look on his face when i told him . [ laughing ] oh ! scott : no more snowman outfit ? mariah : nope . scott : [ sighs ] things are , uh , a little awkward between us . mariah : yeah . maybe that 's because you kissed another woman behind my mom 's back . scott : look , i want to reiterate , there 's nothing going on with abby . mariah : you 're staying away from her ? scott : the only interaction we have is work - related , so i hope one day you and i can be cordial to each other again . [ cellphone chimes ] mariah : oh , my gosh . hilary agreed , and i managed to convince her that the snowman outfit is off - brand and not appropriate for the new and improved `` hilary hour . `` scott : congrats . so that means you 're not quitting ? mariah : no . sharon was right . i had a knee - jerk reaction . which is funny because snowmen do n't have knees . scott : ah ! mariah : ah ! scott : hilary 's lucky . you are an asset to the show . mariah : you watch ? scott : occasionally . that segment you did last week exposing the restaurant who falsely claimed that their food was locally sourced ? that was an impressive story . mariah : i mean , i guess ... scott : and if you ever do end up quitting , i might have to snap you up for hashtag . mariah : see , you almost had me going with all the flattery , but then you showed your cards too soon when you offered me a job . scott : i 'm not following . mariah : you 're trying to buy my silence . scott : no . no . you 've got it all wrong . i 'm actually -- i just wanted to -- sharon : i enter the room , and you stop talking ? that 's not suspicious . what 's the big secret ? scott : we may or may not have been talking about christmas gifts . sharon : oh ? mariah : yeah . yes , we were . and i have a feeling that there 's going to be a lot of them under the tree this year . expensive , shiny ones . scott : [ sighs ] abby : hi , dad . it 's me . i just wanted to let you know that the meeting went well , and i will write up a report and have it to you by the end of the day . also , um , well , i read about you and nikki getting back together . i 'm very happy for you . both of you . i just -- i wish you had told me yourself . well , i will try calling you back later . i love you . bye . you know , i am still not interested in becoming fodder for your gossip show . mariah : are you interested in scott ? abby : scott grainger ? mariah : bingo . abby : he 's a jerk . mariah : well , you two hang out together a lot . abby : well , if you consider working together `` hanging out , `` which i don't . where is this coming from ? mariah : my mom is the happiest she 's been in a long time , and i intend to keep it that way . abby : and what does that have to do with me ? mariah : well , i 've seen the way that you and scott are when you 're together . it makes me wonder if something is going on between the two of you . abby : there 's not . mariah : okay . you ca n't blame me for jumping to conclusions . i mean , you do have a history of being the other woman . abby : you know what , mariah , we 've come a long way . i would even consider us friends ... ish . but if you keep it up , we 'll quickly become enemies . your choice . victoria : the money you stole from dad , you used to buy the park and deep - six our development . nikki : honey , please do n't be upset . i had to do it . for katherine . victoria : i 'm not upset . much . nikki : and you do n't have to worry . victoria : worry ? nikki : about being an accessory because you knew i had stolen the money . i am taking full responsibility for what i did , okay ? so i alone will pay for my crime . victoria : mom , you 're not making any sense . nikki : your father made the charges go away . i just had to agree to move back into the ranch . i know i 'm trading one prison for another , but at least i get my normal life back . victoria : i 'm so confused right now . dad was supposed to tell you that j.t . lied to paul . he submitted a report that said that the anomaly was a banking error . nikki : what ? no , no . that 's not what happened . victoria : yeah , it is , mom . i tried to call you to tell you . nikki : well , i tried to call you , and your father said that you were tied up on a business trip . victoria : he assured me that he was gon na tell you . okay , well , now it makes sense why he sent me to hong kong on such short notice , so i could n't tell you that you were off the hook . and he knew that i would n't e - mail or text because there would be a paper trail . nikki : what ? oh , my god . he lied so he could blackmail me into moving back in with him . that bastard ! nick : so my dad is blackmailing my mom , and for some reason , she is going along with it . and i do n't for one second believe she agreed to this unholy alliance just so she can spend more time with the grandchildren . she could have done that without moving back in with him . chelsea : i do n't know , maybe your mom 's just trying to make the best of a bad situation . nick : every day that she is there gives dad more opportunities to break down her defenses . chelsea : so you 're afraid if nikki forgives victor for all of his past sins , then this arrangement could become a true marriage ? nick : look , i really want my mom to be happy . but we both know happiness with my dad is short - lived . it 's just a matter of time before he hurts her again . mariah : what are you doing ? we 're not done here . abby : yes , we are . j.t . : sorry to interrupt . abby : j.t . ! hi ! mariah : let me shorthand for you -- cassie 's twin , separated at birth , we 're nothing alike . and i do n't mind playing dirty to protect the ones i love . j.t . : um ... what was that about ?

yeah ? white wine ? abby : why not ? j.t . : all right . scotch and a white whine . thanks . j.t . : royal castle grounds . d.j . loved the fountains . sharon : oh , no ! did he fall in ? j.t . : uh , jumped , actually , and then ran to the middle , so guess who had to go in after him ?

sharon : seven months . scott : a few months . sharon : [ laughs ] scott : yeah . sharon : typical , right ? the female can tell you the exact amount of time , but the male , not so much . am i right , abby ? abby : right . yeah . scott : we should get to our table before they give it away to someone else . j.t . : well , good seeing you both . scott : good to see you , too . sharon : you , too . take care . j.t . : all right . take care . yep . well , who would have thought those two would end up together ? abby : not me . victor : how was your day ? nikki : informative . victor : oh , yeah ? nikki : you are and always have been a very sly devil , victor newman . victor : so , in what way was i sly today ? nikki : i had a very interesting conversation with victoria . victor : mm . nikki : and it turns out j.t . filed his report clearing both of us before you offered me this deal . victor : ah , did he now ? nikki : oh , cut the act . you knew it , and you used it to your advantage . now , our pact is suppose to be based on honesty . you 've already broken the rules , which is no surprise . but it proves that i still ca n't trust you . victor : does that mean you 're gon na move out ? [ laughter ] j.t . : i think i have another one , hold on . abby : oh , my gosh . [ laughs ] scott : what do you think 's going on between those two ? sharon : nothing . they used to be family , and he 's married . scott : yeah , still . she should proceed with caution . the guy used to have quite a reputation . sharon : after what happened with zack , i doubt that abby will be getting herself into another sticky situation . scott : good point . from now on , you have my complete and undivided attention . so , what else is on the christmas menu ? sharon : um , here , i have a list somewhere . let me find it . j.t . : it was a short - term job , and now that i 'm done , i 'm taking off tomorrow . abby : ah , no wonder my dad and victoria did n't tell me . so , what is it like being back in genoa city ? j.t . : ah . abby : has it changed much ? j.t . : well , you know , i 've been so busy , i have n't had a chance to check out my old haunts , but ... i will say this , one thing has definitely changed . abby : and what 's that ? j.t . : not what . who . abby : me ? j.t . : yeah . yeah . abby : ah ! j.t . : you 're a high - powered newman executive now , and you wear it very well . abby : thank you . j.t . : yeah . so , where are all the good spots these days ? mm ! tell me . tell me that dive bar jimmy 's is still around . abby : i would n't know . the last time i was there was for one of billy 's halloween bashes . j.t . : oh , yeah ? you too high - class to slum it these days ? abby : no . too busy . and the top of the tower is very convenient . it 's just an elevator ride away from my office . j.t . : yeah , well , then what are you doing here ? abby : slumming it . j.t . : exactly .

our daughter was attacked , and there 's a very good chance it was one of johnny 's enemies . carly : really ? how do we know it was n't one of yours ? jerry : todd manning , correct ? todd : who are you ? jerry : craig . james craig . patrick : steve . how 's she doing ? steve : she 's calmed down . patrick : are all her hallucinations like that ? steve : they 've been unsettling , but she 's never freaked out like that . i thought the worst was over . patrick : the aftereffects of lsd are tough to predict . steve : she wo n't have to live like this forever , will she ? patrick : we 're gon na find the right medical combination for olivia , and we 'll go from there . steve : so it 's meds and monitoring for the rest of her life . patrick : robin was on 10 pills a day when she died -- two antivirals ; two protease inhibitors ; one for her high blood pressure ; one multivitamin ; two for her hair , skin , and nails ; two fish - oil tablets , not to mention everything she had to do for her side effects . my point is , any day with the pills and side effects are better than one day without her . luke : you 're okay ? anna : yeah . of course . i think it 's the first time i 've posed as a mental patient to infiltrate an institution . can you get me out of this ? luke : i do n't know , kid . i kind of like you at my mercy . anna : well , you 've recovered from heather 's bullet , then . luke : yeah , well , you take enough bullets , you know , what 's one more or less ? when your phone call got cut off , i got worried . anna : yeah . i was trying to update you , but that 's when they found me , and they threw me in here . god , there is more security in this psychiatric institution than any ... luke : how 'd you get in ? anna : emergency intake . you know , i did my best paranoid schizophrenic , and they admitted me . i 've been looking around . luke : did you find anything ? anna : nothing concrete about robin , but , um , there 's this one area . it 's very heavily guarded , and they might have her there . i know you do n't believe she 's alive . luke : it does n't matter . i believe in you . joe jr. : how do i look ? tracy : [ clears throat ] well , let me , uh , let me see . may i ? joe jr. : by all means . tracy : oh , i think this will do nicely . joe jr. : maybe too nicely . i 'm not supposed to look better than my clients . tracy : [ chuckles ] and who would your clients be ? joe jr. : people looking to outfit their homes with fine antiques . tracy : oh . you must have exquisite taste . joe jr. : i 've spent decades refining it , learning how to size up a roomful of valuable pieces . tracy : that 's a rare skill . joe jr. : there 's a lot of tasteless , trendy crap out there , and the public eats it up . tracy : no appreciation of the finer things . i think you might have missed a button . joe jr. : me ? i value exquisite detail , understated strength , and the lasting appeal of a genuine classic above all else . tracy : well , what about that button ? joe jr. : i 'll have to fix that . jerry : do you mind if we talk inside ? todd : sure . jerry : thank you . todd : need a glass of water ? jerry : no , thank you . i 'm not thirsty . ewen : i got your page . how 's olivia ? steve : she had another hallucination . ewen : okay . hi , olivia . it 's dr. keenan . uh , i understand you had an episode . would you like to tell me about it ? olivia : it was -- it was just so real . i -- [ screaming ] tracy : okay , wait . wait . wait . wait . wait . wait . what are we doing ? joe jr. : i do n't know , but i like it . olivia : [ screaming ] oh , god , get away from me ! please ! somebody help me ! ewen : it 's dr. keenan . i 'm here to help you . olivia , when -- when you look at me , okay , who do you think i am , olivia ? olivia : you 're the devil ! you 're the devil ! steve : dr. keenan . he 's not the devil . olivia : the devil has the power to assume a pleasing shape . steve : he 's going away . he 's not gon na hurt you anymore . olivia : he 's trying to steal my soul ! patrick : that hallucination was much worse than the last one . ewen : i do n't -- i do n't think we can send her home , at least -- at least not yet . and based on what i 've seen , i do n't think she 'll ever be ready . elizabeth : jason , i know you care about me , and you know i care about you , but this whole crusade against ewen , it just -- it does n't make any sense . jason : he 's hiding something . elizabeth : h - hiding what ? that he 's an australian who moved to alaska , just like the jackses ? jason : will you get just listen to me for a second ? dr. keenan and jax both lived in australia , moved to alaska . jax 's daughter , ex - wife gets injected with something , and dr. keenan 's living in the same town and shows up at the same house ... where it happened ? come on , elizabeth . elizabeth : it 's a coincidence . it 's not a conspiracy . jason : has dr. keenan ever said anything about jax to you ? elizabeth : well , on our first date , i asked him if he knew the jackses , because they 're a prominent family in australia . jason : okay . and ? what did he say ? elizabeth : he rattled off their names -- john , jane , jasper , and jerry . elizabeth : what ? jason : it 's jerry . he injected nikolas to make him sick . how is that different from what happened to alexis and josslyn ? todd : you have 30 seconds . jerry : you recently purchased luxcorp . todd : manning enterprises . jerry : among the holdings , you acquired a local cable franchise . i 'd like to make an investment . todd : sales is on the fourth floor . jerry : i 'm afraid that , under the current circumstances , i have to deal directly with the top . todd : what circumstances are those ? jerry : a time constraint . carly : we already agreed that the common denominator between alexis and josslyn was you . so we need to look at the list of your possible enemies -- the cassadines , arms dealers . hell , the list of people who have lost their jobs because of your corporate raiding , jax . johnny : that 's a good point . what 's to say one of them did n't finally snap and decide to target your ex - wife and your daughter as a way to get to you ? jax : are you saying that what happened to josslyn 's my fault ? carly : i 'm saying i do n't know whose fault it is , but we 're not gon na find out if we keep fighting with each other . jax : i do n't want to fight with you . carly : i do n't want to fight with you , either . but you need to accept that johnny 's a part of my life . jax : well , how big a part can he be ? i 'm still your husband . anna : obviously it 's not unreasonable that heather would lie to manipulate me . i get it . luke : finding somebody 's weakness and exploiting it -- that 's her stock and trade . anna : i could be chasing a ghost . but it 's my ghost , and it 's my chase , and i 'm not giving up on it or robin until i know . luke : fine . but you 're not doing it alone . anna : really ? luke : really . anna : well , let 's find her , then . joe jr. : [ chuckles ] tracy : i should go . joe jr. : where to ? tracy : the shrink . i 've clearly lost my mind . joe jr. : you seem sane to me . tracy : mnh - mnh . you do n't get it . this is not me . this is monica . this is skye . this is definitely not me . joe jr. : i do n't know those people . tracy : you 're lucky . where are my clothes ? joe jr. : stay . please ? hmm ? hmm ? tracy : do n't give me the puppy - dog face . you do n't need to make this into something that it is n't . it 's just two people indulging themselves . joe jr. : that 's not what it meant to me . tracy : really ? joe jr. : mm . tracy : so , what did it mean to you ? joe jr. : well , if you want to put a label on it , how about two people who enjoy each other 's company getting to know each other better ? hmm ? and something tells me , tracy , there 's a lot more of you that i want to get to know . tracy : i do n't think so . joe jr. : [ chuckles ] unless there 's some other guy in your life that 's , uh , wondering where you are right now . tracy : mm . i am so glad you brought that up . guess what . there is n't . how do you think the room service is ? joe jr. : thatagirl . let 's find out . [ chuckles ] luke : so , how do we infiltrate the high - security wing ? anna : okay , i 've looked at it from every angle , and no matter how you cut it , it really is a two - man job , so ... luke : you 're lucky i came . anna : yeah . luke : where do we start ? [ keys jingling ] luke : we got company . patrick : you okay ? ewen : i do n't know . i know it should n't bother me , but it 's not every day that your patient thinks you 're the devil . patrick : that 's the lsd talking . people say harsh things when they 're on drugs , believe me . ewen : well , lately those harsh things -- they feel more accurate . patrick : yeah , but she 's alive , right ? she 's having a bad day . there 's still hope . ewen : i hope you 're right . patrick : hey , you 're a good doctor . you 're a good man . believe me , i know firsthand . if you do n't believe me , ask kate . you can ask elizabeth . jason : after the metro court , jerry did n't think he could get out of port charles without getting caught , so he injected nikolas . he withheld the antidote until nikolas agreed to help him create a new identity . elizabeth : but robin , emily , and patrick synthesized the antidote . jason : p - patrick was involved in that ? elizabeth : jason , ewen ca n't be involved with jerry because jerry is dead . siobhan saw him get shot and fall into the harbor . jason : i - i have to go . do not tell dr. keenan we talked about this , please , for your own safety . elizabeth : okay . jason : i mean it . you need to be careful . i - i could n't take it if something happened to you . patrick : i 'm gon na let admitting know that olivia 's staying with us . ewen : well , that 's fine , patrick . you and i both know there 's -- there 's only so much g.h . can do for olivia in her current state . patrick : we got to keep doing it . ewen : but for how long ? look , look , i know we -- we do n't even want to consider this , but if her condition does n't improve and improve soon ... we 'll have to consider moving her to shadybrook . steve : it 's okay . it 's okay . olivia : it 's not . it 's not okay . it 's not gon na be fine . i saw the devil . [ breathing heavily ] i saw the devil . todd : any deal that you and i would make to sell you a cable franchise would have to be vetted by the fcc . jerry : well , as i mentioned , there is a time constraint . todd : well , that 's your problem , not mine . jerry : so you 're turning me down ? todd : yes , i 'm turning you down . i 'm gon na have to ask you to leave . i have to go run a newspaper . jerry : payment up front , in full . todd : well , why did n't you say so in the first place ? jerry : so i presume we have a deal ? jax : i served you with the divorce papers last year . i never received the executed agreement . do n't tell me it got lost in the mail . johnny : i 'm gon na go . carly : you do n't have to go . johnny : no , i - i do n't need to be here for this , is what i do n't have to do , so i 'm gon na go . i love you . [ smooches ] tell joss i said hi and maybe we 'll go out for ice cream later , huh ? you can come , too , jax . [ door opens , closes ] jax : he 's a keeper . carly : you left , okay ? you left . and i know there were reasons and it 's just as much my fault as it was yours , but you do n't get to show up here and judge my life . jax : fine . then i 'll settle for some answers . do you have the divorce papers ? carly : yes , i have them . you know i have them , okay ? jax : then ... why have n't you signed them ? i mean , you 've obviously ... carly : i have n't -- i - i have n't got around to dealing with the divorce . that 's it . jax : why not ? jason : i need to talk to you . patrick : are you having symptoms or any indication of a relapse ? jason : no , it 's not medical . patrick : then i ca n't help you . jason : yeah , you can . patrick : you 're my patient , jason . i owe you the standard of care , nothing beyond that . so unless you 're bleeding , broken , sick , or on fire , it 'll have to wait . jason : it 's about robin . luke : [ speaking dutch ] it is not good . [ sighs ] [ speaking dutch ] dr. obrecht , i will require all the test results that you have made on my client . dr. obrecht : naturlich were you able to make any progress with the patient ? luke : she 's , i 'm afraid , getting much worse than she was before . she will require very close observation . dr. obrecht : shall we arrange transport maybe for her back to the rikshospitalet in amsterdam ? luke : nein , not at this time . i think that to move her might be dangerous . i would like , if you will allow me , a tour of your facilities . it may become necessary for me to continue my therapy here for the time being . dr. obrecht : certainly , dr . von schemerman . this way . luke : danke . dr. obrecht : if you would like , i could recommend a wonderful hotel . todd : all right . well ... let 's see what this joker bought . [ turns tv on ] joe jr. : yeah . tracy : i 'd say this room service was pretty darn good . joe jr. : well , what do you think about breakfast in bed and a movie ? pass me the remote , darling . mm . mm . [ turns tv on ] tv : like julia child . all the vegetables cooking . olivia : it was the worst hallucination yet . it was -- it was just so real . steve : just try to take your mind off it , okay ? olivia : steve , i 'm so scared . steve : try to take your mind off it . you want to watch some tv ? olivia : okay . [ exhales deeply ] tv : so , i 'm just gon na make a vinaigrette with olive oil , balsamic vinegar , and garlic . [ knock on door ] tv : run the vegetables through those . elizabeth : [ mutes tv ] hi . you forget something ? ewen : um , i , uh , i did n't have any more patients scheduled , and , uh , i was hoping that i could , uh , spend the rest of the day with you . elizabeth : i 'm flattered . you seem a little tense . ewen : uh , a patient of mine had -- had a setback . elizabeth : oh , i 'm sorry . you okay ? ewen : how did things go with jason ? elizabeth : fine . ewen : are you sure ? elizabeth : can i ask you something ? ewen : anything . elizabeth : okay . i ... oh , my god . jax : why ca n't you let me go ? i mean , is it -- is it because you do n't want to ? carly : hey ! josslyn : mommy . daddy . jax : come here , my little angel . good morning ! give daddy a big hug . oh ! josslyn : could you and me and mommy watch tv ? jax : yes . carly : you bet we can . here . sit right here . jax : come on . carly : sit down here , and we can find a super - fun cartoon . okay . do you want to watch some tom and -- jerry ? jerry : greetings and salutations , citizens of port charles . please pardon this interruption from your regularly scheduled programming . i 'm sure many of you out there are wondering , `` who in heaven 's name is this man ? why is he on my television ? where 's my soap opera ? `` if that is the case , please allow me to introduce myself . some of you may know me as james brosnan . others , as james craig . but the name most of you know me by is my real one . i 'm jerry jacks . do i have your attention ? so , please , listen closely , because i have something very important to say . i 've been keeping a little secret , and i think it 's time to let you all in on it . anna : robin ? | luke goes to switzerland and uses a phony accent to pretend he is a doctor in order to find anna . a doctor there recognizes anna 's photo and takes him to anna 's room , where anna is in a catatonic state . when the doctor leaves , anna lets luke know that she was faking . she tells him that she pretended to be schizophrenic so that they would admit her as a patient . she tells him about a restricted area where she thinks robin might be . luke creates a distraction while anna goes to the restricted area . she enters a padded room where she believes robin is . | <s>[INST] jerry : 1.4 billion people live without clean drinking water . joe jr. : is that right ? jerry : dirty water kills more children than war , malaria , and h.i.v . combined . and the people here take their water for granted . they think it 's limitless . they drink it . they bathe in it . they even play in it . [ motor whirs ] elizabeth : ohh . jerry : all without a second thought . they squander a resource that gives them life . well , they need a wake - up call . something to force them to re - examine their priorities . who knows ? maybe they 'll come together ... carly : hi . todd : hi . you 're up early . carly : yeah , uh , i did n't feel safe to go home last night , so , uh , so we stayed here . todd : you did ? carly : yeah . todd : you and joss ? carly : yeah , me and joss and , uh , my husband . jerry : ... dispense with their rivalries ...

patrick : we 're gon na find the right medical combination for olivia , and we 'll go from there . steve : so it 's meds and monitoring for the rest of her life . patrick : robin was on 10 pills a day when she died -- two antivirals ; two protease inhibitors ; one for her high blood pressure ; one multivitamin ; two for her hair , skin , and nails ; two fish - oil tablets , not to mention everything she had to do for her side effects . my point is , any day with the pills and side effects are better than one day without her . luke : you 're okay ? anna : yeah . of course . i think it 's the first time i 've posed as a mental patient to infiltrate an institution . can you get me out of this ? luke : i do n't know , kid . i kind of like you at my mercy . anna : well , you 've recovered from heather 's bullet , then . luke : yeah , well , you take enough bullets , you know , what 's one more or less ? when your phone call got cut off , i got worried . anna : yeah . i was trying to update you , but that 's when they found me , and they threw me in here . god , there is more security in this psychiatric institution than any ... luke : how 'd you get in ? anna : emergency intake . you know , i did my best paranoid schizophrenic , and they admitted me . i 've been looking around . luke : did you find anything ? anna : nothing concrete about robin , but , um , there 's this one area . it 's very heavily guarded , and they might have her there . i know you do n't believe she 's alive . luke : it does n't matter . i believe in you . joe jr. : how do i look ? tracy : [ clears throat ] well , let me , uh , let me see . may i ? joe jr. : by all means . tracy : oh , i think this will do nicely . joe jr. : maybe too nicely . i 'm not supposed to look better than my clients . tracy : [ chuckles ] and who would your clients be ? joe jr. : people looking to outfit their homes with fine antiques . tracy : oh . you must have exquisite taste . joe jr. : i 've spent decades refining it , learning how to size up a roomful of valuable pieces . tracy : that 's a rare skill . joe jr. : there 's a lot of tasteless , trendy crap out there , and the public eats it up . tracy : no appreciation of the finer things . i think you might have missed a button . joe jr. : me ? i value exquisite detail , understated strength , and the lasting appeal of a genuine classic above all else . tracy : well , what about that button ? joe jr. : i 'll have to fix that . jerry : do you mind if we talk inside ? todd : sure . jerry : thank you . todd : need a glass of water ? jerry : no , thank you . i 'm not thirsty . ewen : i got your page . how 's olivia ? steve : she had another hallucination . ewen : okay . hi , olivia . it 's dr. keenan . uh , i understand you had an episode . would you like to tell me about it ? olivia : it was -- it was just so real . i -- [ screaming ] tracy : okay , wait . wait . wait . wait . wait . wait . what are we doing ? joe jr. : i do n't know , but i like it . olivia : [ screaming ] oh , god , get away from me ! please ! somebody help me ! ewen : it 's dr. keenan . i 'm here to help you . olivia , when -- when you look at me , okay , who do you think i am , olivia ? olivia : you 're the devil ! you 're the devil ! steve : dr. keenan . he 's not the devil . olivia : the devil has the power to assume a pleasing shape . steve : he 's going away . he 's not gon na hurt you anymore . olivia : he 's trying to steal my soul ! patrick : that hallucination was much worse than the last one . ewen : i do n't -- i do n't think we can send her home , at least -- at least not yet . and based on what i 've seen , i do n't think she 'll ever be ready . elizabeth : jason , i know you care about me , and you know i care about you , but this whole crusade against ewen , it just -- it does n't make any sense . jason : he 's hiding something . elizabeth : h - hiding what ? that he 's an australian who moved to alaska , just like the jackses ? jason : will you get just listen to me for a second ? dr. keenan and jax both lived in australia , moved to alaska . jax 's daughter , ex - wife gets injected with something , and dr. keenan 's living in the same town and shows up at the same house ... where it happened ? come on , elizabeth . elizabeth : it 's a coincidence . it 's not a conspiracy . jason : has dr. keenan ever said anything about jax to you ? elizabeth : well , on our first date , i asked him if he knew the jackses , because they 're a prominent family in australia . jason : okay . and ? what did he say ? elizabeth : he rattled off their names -- john , jane , jasper , and jerry . elizabeth : what ? jason : it 's jerry . he injected nikolas to make him sick . how is that different from what happened to alexis and josslyn ? todd : you have 30 seconds . jerry : you recently purchased luxcorp . todd : manning enterprises . jerry : among the holdings , you acquired a local cable franchise . i 'd like to make an investment . todd : sales is on the fourth floor . jerry : i 'm afraid that , under the current circumstances , i have to deal directly with the top . todd : what circumstances are those ? jerry : a time constraint . carly : we already agreed that the common denominator between alexis and josslyn was you . so we need to look at the list of your possible enemies -- the cassadines , arms dealers . hell , the list of people who have lost their jobs because of your corporate raiding , jax . johnny : that 's a good point . what 's to say one of them did n't finally snap and decide to target your ex - wife and your daughter as a way to get to you ? jax : are you saying that what happened to josslyn 's my fault ? carly : i 'm saying i do n't know whose fault it is , but we 're not gon na find out if we keep fighting with each other . jax : i do n't want to fight with you . carly : i do n't want to fight with you , either . but you need to accept that johnny 's a part of my life . jax : well , how big a part can he be ? i 'm still your husband . anna : obviously it 's not unreasonable that heather would lie to manipulate me . i get it . luke : finding somebody 's weakness and exploiting it -- that 's her stock and trade . anna : i could be chasing a ghost . but it 's my ghost , and it 's my chase , and i 'm not giving up on it or robin until i know . luke : fine . but you 're not doing it alone . anna : really ? luke : really . anna : well , let 's find her , then . joe jr. : [ chuckles ] tracy : i should go . joe jr. : where to ? tracy : the shrink . i 've clearly lost my mind . joe jr. : you seem sane to me . tracy : mnh - mnh . you do n't get it . this is not me . this is monica . this is skye . this is definitely not me . joe jr. : i do n't know those people . tracy : you 're lucky . where are my clothes ? joe jr. : stay . please ? hmm ? hmm ? tracy : do n't give me the puppy - dog face . you do n't need to make this into something that it is n't . it 's just two people indulging themselves . joe jr. : that 's not what it meant to me . tracy : really ? joe jr. : mm . tracy : so , what did it mean to you ? joe jr. : well , if you want to put a label on it , how about two people who enjoy each other 's company getting to know each other better ? hmm ? and something tells me , tracy , there 's a lot more of you that i want to get to know . tracy : i do n't think so . joe jr. : [ chuckles ] unless there 's some other guy in your life that 's , uh , wondering where you are right now . tracy : mm . i am so glad you brought that up . guess what . there is n't . how do you think the room service is ? joe jr. : thatagirl . let 's find out . [ chuckles ] luke : so , how do we infiltrate the high - security wing ? anna : okay , i 've looked at it from every angle , and no matter how you cut it , it really is a two - man job , so ... luke : you 're lucky i came . anna : yeah . luke : where do we start ? [ keys jingling ] luke : we got company . patrick : you okay ? ewen : i do n't know . i know it should n't bother me , but it 's not every day that your patient thinks you 're the devil . patrick : that 's the lsd talking . people say harsh things when they 're on drugs , believe me . ewen : well , lately those harsh things -- they feel more accurate . patrick : yeah , but she 's alive , right ? she 's having a bad day . there 's still hope . ewen : i hope you 're right . patrick : hey , you 're a good doctor . you 're a good man . believe me , i know firsthand . if you do n't believe me , ask kate . you can ask elizabeth . jason : after the metro court , jerry did n't think he could get out of port charles without getting caught , so he injected nikolas . he withheld the antidote until nikolas agreed to help him create a new identity . elizabeth : but robin , emily , and patrick synthesized the antidote . jason : p - patrick was involved in that ? elizabeth : jason , ewen ca n't be involved with jerry because jerry is dead . siobhan saw him get shot and fall into the harbor . jason : i - i have to go . do not tell dr. keenan we talked about this , please , for your own safety . elizabeth : okay . jason : i mean it . you need to be careful . i - i could n't take it if something happened to you . patrick : i 'm gon na let admitting know that olivia 's staying with us . ewen : well , that 's fine , patrick . you and i both know there 's -- there 's only so much g.h . can do for olivia in her current state . patrick : we got to keep doing it . ewen : but for how long ? look , look , i know we -- we do n't even want to consider this , but if her condition does n't improve and improve soon ... we 'll have to consider moving her to shadybrook . steve : it 's okay . it 's okay . olivia : it 's not . it 's not okay . it 's not gon na be fine . i saw the devil . [ breathing heavily ] i saw the devil . todd : any deal that you and i would make to sell you a cable franchise would have to be vetted by the fcc . jerry : well , as i mentioned , there is a time constraint . todd : well , that 's your problem , not mine . jerry : so you 're turning me down ? todd : yes , i 'm turning you down . i 'm gon na have to ask you to leave . i have to go run a newspaper . jerry : payment up front , in full . todd : well , why did n't you say so in the first place ? jerry : so i presume we have a deal ? jax : i served you with the divorce papers last year . i never received the executed agreement . do n't tell me it got lost in the mail . johnny : i 'm gon na go . carly : you do n't have to go . johnny : no , i - i do n't need to be here for this , is what i do n't have to do , so i 'm gon na go . i love you . [ smooches ] tell joss i said hi and maybe we 'll go out for ice cream later , huh ? you can come , too , jax . [ door opens , closes ] jax : he 's a keeper . carly : you left , okay ? you left . and i know there were reasons and it 's just as much my fault as it was yours , but you do n't get to show up here and judge my life . jax : fine . then i 'll settle for some answers . do you have the divorce papers ? carly : yes , i have them . you know i have them , okay ? jax : then ... why have n't you signed them ? i mean , you 've obviously ... carly : i have n't -- i - i have n't got around to dealing with the divorce . that 's it . jax : why not ? jason : i need to talk to you . patrick : are you having symptoms or any indication of a relapse ? jason : no , it 's not medical . patrick : then i ca n't help you . jason : yeah , you can . patrick : you 're my patient , jason . i owe you the standard of care , nothing beyond that . so unless you 're bleeding , broken , sick , or on fire , it 'll have to wait . jason : it 's about robin . luke : [ speaking dutch ] it is not good . [ sighs ] [ speaking dutch ] dr. obrecht , i will require all the test results that you have made on my client . dr. obrecht : naturlich were you able to make any progress with the patient ? luke : she 's , i 'm afraid , getting much worse than she was before . she will require very close observation . dr. obrecht : shall we arrange transport maybe for her back to the rikshospitalet in amsterdam ? luke : nein , not at this time . i think that to move her might be dangerous . i would like , if you will allow me , a tour of your facilities . it may become necessary for me to continue my therapy here for the time being . dr. obrecht : certainly , dr . von schemerman . this way . luke : danke . dr. obrecht : if you would like , i could recommend a wonderful hotel . todd : all right . well ... let 's see what this joker bought . [ turns tv on ] joe jr. : yeah . tracy : i 'd say this room service was pretty darn good . joe jr. : well , what do you think about breakfast in bed and a movie ? pass me the remote , darling . mm . mm . [ turns tv on ] tv : like julia child . all the vegetables cooking . olivia : it was the worst hallucination yet . it was -- it was just so real . steve : just try to take your mind off it , okay ? olivia : steve , i 'm so scared . steve : try to take your mind off it . you want to watch some tv ? olivia : okay . [ exhales deeply ] tv : so , i 'm just gon na make a vinaigrette with olive oil , balsamic vinegar , and garlic . [ knock on door ] tv : run the vegetables through those . elizabeth : [ mutes tv ] hi . you forget something ? ewen : um , i , uh , i did n't have any more patients scheduled , and , uh , i was hoping that i could , uh , spend the rest of the day with you . elizabeth : i 'm flattered . you seem a little tense . ewen : uh , a patient of mine had -- had a setback . elizabeth : oh , i 'm sorry . you okay ? ewen : how did things go with jason ? elizabeth : fine . ewen : are you sure ? elizabeth : can i ask you something ? ewen : anything . elizabeth : okay . i ... oh , my god . jax : why ca n't you let me go ? i mean , is it -- is it because you do n't want to ? carly : hey ! josslyn : mommy . daddy . jax : come here , my little angel . good morning ! give daddy a big hug . oh ! josslyn : could you and me and mommy watch tv ? jax : yes . carly : you bet we can . here . sit right here . jax : come on . carly : sit down here , and we can find a super - fun cartoon . okay . do you want to watch some tom and -- jerry ? jerry : greetings and salutations , citizens of port charles . please pardon this interruption from your regularly scheduled programming . i 'm sure many of you out there are wondering , `` who in heaven 's name is this man ? why is he on my television ? where 's my soap opera ? `` if that is the case , please allow me to introduce myself . some of you may know me as james brosnan . others , as james craig . but the name most of you know me by is my real one . i 'm jerry jacks . do i have your attention ? so , please , listen closely , because i have something very important to say . i 've been keeping a little secret , and i think it 's time to let you all in on it . anna : robin ?Summarize.[/INST]luke goes to switzerland and uses a phony accent to pretend he is a doctor in order to find anna . a doctor there recognizes anna 's photo and takes him to anna 's room , where anna is in a catatonic state . when the doctor leaves , anna lets luke know that she was faking . she tells him that she pretended to be schizophrenic so that they would admit her as a patient . she tells him about a restricted area where she thinks robin might be . luke creates a distraction while anna goes to the restricted area . she enters a padded room where she believes robin is .</s> | 1,078 |

brady : no victims here . no one was shot . victor : he fell in the pool and hit his head . you better have a look at him . abe : that 's it ? he fell in the pool ? victor : someone took a shot at him . he turned to see where the shooter was and slipped and fell into the pool . thank god the shooter missed . abe : are you sure brady was the target ? shawn - d : so your father killed your mother ? maya : i never said that . i said the police were convinced that my father killed her . they were wrong . he had nothing to do with her disappearance . he was absolutely lost without her . shawn - d : so you were raised by your father after that , after your mother left ? maya : yes . and it was wonderful . we were never apart . when he traveled , i went with him . my classroom was the entire world . shawn - d : okay , so , after traveling the entire world , you decided now to settle in salem , right ? why ? maya : i never settle anywhere . i 'm hereigight now . shawn - d : so this is n't forever . maya : nothing is forever . shawn - d : except for love ? ma : not even that . and anyone who says otherwise is a fool or a liar . jesse : i still ca n't believe you and your bitch got out of that warehouse . i almost did n't recognize her with that wig on , but tommy was right , were n't you , tommy ? tommy : me , right ? i 'm never right . you can ask anyone . jesse : what were you right about , tommy ? tommy : let 's see . uh ... maybe , uh ... `` she 's got a face you ca n't forget . `` that 's it , right ? that 's what i said . jesse : yeah , that 's it . then wt t did you say ? tommy : um ... something , uh ... maybe ... `` she 's got a great body . `` whatever . i do n't know . jesse : i think this kid 's got a thing for your wife . bo : hey , look , this is between you and me . it 's got notngng to do with tommy , so let him go . jesse : like hell . he set me up . tommy did a bad thing . tommy is a bad boy . bo : tommy did exactly like i told him . he had no choice . let him go . maya : it must be interesting having two women in your life who could n't be more different from one another . on the one side , you have innocent , inexperienced belle . and on the other ... well , there 's me . shawn - d : i hate to break this to you , but you 're not in my life the way belle is . you see , she 's it for me . and you want to know why , maya ? because i love her . maya : ha ha ha . touching . and , you know , i do n't believe you came here to talk to me about belle or my childhood -- not for a minute . shawn - d : it 's just i 'm trying to -- maya : oh , come on , be honest . why did you come here ? shawn - d : fine ! the truth is , i 'm spying oyoyou . lucas : why ? cassie , why are you working here ? it 's not like you need the money . cassie : i like it here . lucas : you like it here . you like -- you like having men ogle you and drool all over you ?

i wanted you , and i thought you wanted me , too . cassie : it would n't have worked between us . it was n't real . lucas : was n't real ? and you think this place is real ? let me tell you something . every single guy in this place is pretending to be somebody they 're not . the only reason why they like the girls is because the girls tell them exactly what they want to hear . they wait on them hand and foot . and the only reason why the girls like the guys is because they 're getting paid to . that 's what this club is about . it has nothing to do with the outside world or real love . cassie : you know , you do n't know anything about real love , either . brady : here , nicole . nicole : oh . thank you . brady : the paramedics must get commission for every warm body they transport . victor : they want to take you in for observation ?

brady : it never dawned on me , but now that i think about it , yeah , there might be a few people who want me dead . bo : look , tommy had nothing to do with this . let him go . jesse : shut up ! shut up ! shut up ! just shut up ! or i 'm going to start gapping people right here and now . turn right at that alley up there . tommy : can i ask whe e we 're going ?

tony : yeah , it 's my boat . i know it better than you do . john : hey . do n't forget to write . ha ha ha ha . lucas : what are you saying ? are you saying i do n't know what real love is ? huh ? i 'll tell you what real love is . real love is being sick as a dog and still getting up in the middle of the night to take care of your kid . it 's having no money and still figuring out a way to pay the bills . it 's keeping a smile on your face no matter how tough things get . and that 's what soul mates do -- they stick by each other no matter how bad it gets -- through thick and thin , through all the joy , the pain , the rewards and the struggles . cassie : you 've been through all that , huh ? lucas : no , hahaven't . not yet . but i have plenty of time . cassie : well , time 's being wasted . you should get started . lucas : i 'll worry about my life . you worry about yours . cassie : i am . and i have . right here . right now . lucas : it 's not right , cassie . it 's just not the place . cassie : you do n't understand . this is the only place that i can feel good about myself . lucas : what are you talking about ?

brady : well , when i took over the blue note , i had to cancel some gigs . they were n't exactly the bands that i felt belonged to the blue note . some guys were pretty tough and pretty ticked off . they made some threats , and maybe i should 've taken them seriously . abe : well , i 'll need their names and numbers where we can pick 'em up . brady : yeah , i should have them at the club . abe : well , that 'll help . till then , i 'm going to have my people search the grounds for the shell casing , the slug itself , footprints , tire tracks , whatever else will help . victor : whatever it takes to catch this bastard . abe : you can count on that . so , what is that all about ? nicole : uh ... victor and i were planning to meet out here . i was in my room changing when i heard the shot . victor : that 's right . said you had a surprise waiting for me when i got down here . exactly what was that , my dear ?

[ scene_break ] bianca : what i went through with ricky is nothing compared to what you went through -- pretending to be in love with the man who murdered your husband . kendall : we 're kane women . protecting the people we love -- that 's what we do . we 're stuck with it . come here . please call me if you need anything , ok ? please . bianca : you know i will . kendall : all right . actually , i 'm gon na walk out with you . i want to get these casino bids over to griffin , have him take a look . once we get the funds for that , he can actually pay back the hospital for the drugs that he took . i owe him so much , and more .

[ scene_break ] angie : boy , it is awful . poor john . jesse : hey , i know this is a shock . if i remember correctly , remy kind of liked to live on the edge , no telling who he might 've rubbed the wrong way . but -- uh -- why is derek calling you about this ? angie : i was probably one of the last people who saw him . jesse : you hardly knew the guy . angie , what is it ? angie : remy and i dated , jesse . when you got shot , after you died , we were together . [ scene_break ] richie : you 're never going to believe who this was . that was the national bone marrow donor list , and they found me a match in austin . babe : you 're kidding . richie : and -- and the donor wants to go right on ahead with the transplant right now . babe : but -- but you do n't need a donor , you already have j.r . richie : yeah , well , that 's -- that 's the thing , you know ? i do appreciate j.r.

[ scene_break ] doctor : i think it 's time we got what we came for . [ scene_break ] richie : i know you pushed j.r. to make that move and i am eternally grateful , but i think you 're ignoring the truth here , babe . babe : look , richie -- richie : i like you , babe , more than just a friend . and now that i 'm going to live , i think you should know that i plan on fighting for you . and if i have j.r. 's blood going through my veins , it puts him in the unfair advantage . babe : richie , this is n't about a competition , this is about your disease . it does n't matter where the bone marrow comes from . richie : it does to me . so i 'm going to go to austin , and i 'm going to get that transplant , and then i 'm going to come back here to pine valley , and i 'm going to make you fall in love with me . [ scene_break ] ryan : i need -- i need you to listen to me , ok ? look at me for a sec . look at me because it 's really important , ok ? this is not your fault . this is not your fault , and it 's not mommy 's fault , either . emma : then why are you going away ? ryan : well , i have n't been feeling very well lately , and i have to be alone to try to start to feel better . annie : it 's like i told you before , sweetheart , daddy 's memory is a little confused -- kind of like when you wake up from a dream , and you do n't know where you are . ryan : yeah . makes it -- makes it hard to think sometimes . oh . what was that for ? annie : that 's -- that 's what you do for me when i have a headache . you kiss it , and it goes away . emma : now your head can be all better , now you do n't have to leave . [ scene_break ] kendall : aidan and i have an understanding . we made a mistake , but it 's in the past , and it 's going to stay there . erica : ok , you need to convince zach to hire somebody else to accompany you , anyone but aidan . kendall : what ? mother , what -- what are you talking about ? and how would that look -- possibly maybe that we 're , i do n't know , guilty ? and -- and even if i could convince zach to do that , it does n't matter -- aidan is dating my best friend , we 're together all the time . erica : so zach hires the man who did sleep with you to protect you from the man who wants to sleep with you ? kendall : ryan does n't want to sleep with me . erica : no , he wants to marry you , kendall . where is zach now ? kendall : he 's with greenlee . actually , they 're at confusion -- i 'm supposed to meet them right now . erica : i think you 're already in confusion . zach and greenlee have been getting very cozy these days . kendall : would you stop it , mother ? they 're friends now . not everybody messes up like i did -- or you have . [ scene_break ] zach : you want to bomb the bomb shelter ? greenlee : sure . why not ? zach : i do n't know -- there might be a few county ordinances , but i 'm -- i 'm ok with that . it 's tough to find dynamite this time of day . greenlee : ha - ha , you 're so hilarious . i 'm just sick and tired of worrying , zach , are n't you ? i mean , think about it -- kendall worries about erica , aidan 's worried about me , you 're worried about ryan . zach : with good reason . greenlee : our problems are supposed to be behind us . zach : that 's life , i guess -- always new problems . greenlee : well , i do n't want to just sit around and wallow . zach : what do you want to do ? greenlee : let 's get drunk . there 's nothing like a good , stiff drink to take your troubles away . zach : shots ? greenlee : yeah . zach : well , i 've never been able to say no to a beautiful woman and a bottle of tequila . greenlee : besides , what 's the worst that can happen ? [ scene_break ] jesse : you and remy ? angie : i believed you were gone . and remy was kind , i was vulnerable . jesse : you thought i was dead and , at some point , you had to move on . angie : well , not with the man you gave your life for . jesse : i 'm not mad at you , baby . i 'm mad at those bastards that took me away . that 's why i need to know more about you and remy . angie : jesse , you do n't want to hear about all of that . jesse : no , baby , there 's something here -- the fact that i was shot protecting remy , the way he went after you , the timing of his death ? angie : you think john had something to do with your disappearance ? jesse : i 'm not sure . did anything unusual happen when you were seeing him ? angie : i -- i barely remember that time . jesse : i need you to try to remember . anything at all -- unusual , suspicious ? angie : not when i was with him . jesse : what about afterwards ? angie : no , i -- wait a minute . you know , the -- the house was broken into a couple of weeks after we broke up . nothing was taken , i -- i did n't even report it , but somebody was there . jesse : and remy was already off the hook ? angie : he was never going anywhere , jesse . remy was good to me at a time that i needed it , good to frankie . jesse : he ask any questions about me ? angie : what kind of questions ? jesse : oh , about any cases i might 've been working , what i might 've said ? angie : i -- i do n't remember . jesse : think , baby . angie : i am . jesse : oh , come on ! he did n't say anything about the man that saved his life , so he could make his move on the grieving widow and the child ? he did n't talk about me at all ? angie : that 's not fair , jesse . jesse : it hurts , it just hurts . all those years away from you -- it just -- it hurts .

[ scene_break ] kendall : what is it ? aidan : i do n't know . i 'm just -- i do n't know when my life went from sane and normal to -- to this . kendall : has it ever been sane and normal ? aidan : that 's a good point . greenlee asked me again how we found those plans to the bomb shelter , and i acted like -- like she was holding photographs of us two sleeping together . kendall : did zach say anything ? aidan : no , he did n't . he probably just thinks i 'm nuts , which is not too far from the truth right now . kendall : ok , all right , well , the next time she asks , just tell her our version of the truth . aidan : which is ? kendall : which is that -- that we were -- we were desperate and -- and at each other 's throats , looking for any sign of hope , when i threw something at you and -- and we -- we found the -- we found the prints . aidan : do you really think that 's going to work ? kendall : well , i 'm just leaving out one tiny detail . besides , you were the one who told me that there are good lies . aidan : yeah , i did , did n't i ? oh , you 're right . i 'm probably just overreacting . are you ready for our trip ? kendall : yeah -- i do n't know -- i guess . i 'm fighting this urge to go and check on ryan -- annie asked him to move out . aidan : yeah , it 's probably best that you just stay away from him for a while . kendall : yeah , that 's what my mom said . but ryan -- i -- i care about him , he 's -- he 's spike 's dad , and he 's -- he 's hurting right now . aidan : that 's because the guy thinks he 's in love with you . kendall : well , then it 's only a matter of time before he goes after greenlee . aidan : what do you mean ? kendall : what i mean is the last time ryan and i were together , he dumped me for your girlfriend -- so maybe you should be trying to keep them apart . [ scene_break ] greenlee : what 's that for ? zach : you 've been officially cut off . greenlee : because i asked you if you could stand the idea of hooking up with me ? zach : do n't turn this around . greenlee : it was hypothetical . for that tiny sliver of time when we thought that there was no hope , i felt like we loved each other . zach : we did the right thing . greenlee : you 're right . it 's not like i was serious . zach : no , of course , you were n't . drink your water .

[ scene_break ] j.r. : whoa -- who are you ? what -- where am i ? doctor : he 's seen us again , we have to end this fast . [ scene_break ] aidan : you really think ryan 's going to go after greenlee ? kendall : no . i do n't know why i said that . i just -- i 'm worried . i 'm just worried about him . ryan is so lost right now . he needs his friends . aidan : the best thing that can happen for ryan is that he wakes up , and he remembers his wife . kendall : yeah . that would make everybody feel better , especially zach . [ scene_break ] zach : i think what happened between us in the bomb shelter was a -- a lot more intimate than sex could ever be . greenlee : i know what you mean . zach : so , now all we need is for ryan and annie to get back together and the -- the world will be right again . greenlee : you know , i was thinking that i could help with that . zach : how ? greenlee : ryan does n't trust a lot of people , but he trusts me -- at least , he did in those days . so i could just nudge him in the right direction , get his mind off of kendall and back onto annie . zach : what 's a bad idea . greenlee : why ? zach : because we 're not shrinks . ryan is lost , he 's delusional . and the last thing i want is for you and kendall to slip into a world that does n't exist anymore . [ scene_break ] ryan : look , i do n't want emma to realize that i do n't remember her . so i 'm -- i 'm going to need a little bit of help with some of the details , you know , like the baking apples and cinnamon and the ice skating . it might mean that we got to spend a little bit of time together , but i really think that it 'll -- it 'll protect emma in the long run . annie : i wo n't let emma suffer . i 'll help you in any way i can . ryan : for what it 's worth , i do n't want this to go on forever . i -- i want to wake up . annie : that 's not exactly `` i love you , `` is it ? ryan : i 'm going to go and say good - bye . [ scene_break ] babe : are you leaving ? richie : yeah , yeah . there 's a flight to austin in about two hours , and i need to go pack . babe : but what about your shirt ? richie : gives me a good excuse to come back here . babe : look , richie , i 'm really happy for you . you know , all i ever wanted was for you to get the second chance that you deserve , no matter where it comes from . richie : well , i will be sure to thank j.r. next time i see him . babe : i 'm sure that he 'll appreciate that . richie : i meant what i said . i 'm coming back here for you . babe : it 'll be good to have my friend back . richie : i 'll be a whole new man . babe : do you know how long you 're going to be away ? richie : oh , look at that -- she misses me already . this is going to be easier than i thought . babe : bye .

[ angie sighs ] angie : so what else do you want to know ? [ jesse sighs ] jesse : the burglary -- i mean , that sounds really suspicious . are you sure there was nothing missing when you finally cleaned up ? angie : no , nothing -- i mean , that 's what was so strange . jesse : hmm . that means they did n't find what they were looking for . also , they did n't get what they needed out of me . angie : baby , listen , do -- do you think we should bring derek in on this ? jesse : no , no . i think i got a better shot at nailing these guys if they know that i 'm not on to them , but i need you to talk to derek . keep talking to him , find out everything you can about remy 's murder . angie : of course . we 're in this together . jesse : i need you to know that you did n't do anything wrong . i wanted you to move on , to live your life . but you got to know that -- uh -- i 've spent the last 20 years dealing with the emotional insanity . i got to find someway to process it , it 's not going to be easy . angie : i never let go of your heart , jesse . never . jesse : neither did i .

[ scene_break ] greenlee : what 's that for ? zach : you 've been officially cut off . greenlee : because i asked you if you could stand the idea of hooking up with me ? zach : do n't turn this around . greenlee : it was hypothetical . for that tiny sliver of time when we thought that there was no hope , i felt like we loved each other . zach : we did the right thing . greenlee : you 're right . it 's not like i was serious . zach : no , of course , you were n't . drink your water .

[ scene_break ] alex : would you please tell me what is going on here ? and what is this ridiculous idea that i tried to kill lois to keep her from revealing some plot to kill you ? where did he come up with that stupid idea ? marlena : john gave her sodium pentathlon . and apparently she said something that he thought might incriminate you . alex : you did what ? ! you have jeopardized her whole recovery . john : spare me the medical ethics . you not only drugged marlena , you hypnotized her as part of your treatment . you even admitted it . alex : how dare you even compare that . i was trying to help marlena regain her memory . what you did to that highly susceptible woman is barbaric and inhumane . and what makes matters worse , you did it for your own personal gains . let me tell you something . if anyone is to blame for what has happened to lois , it is john black . he had no right to administer mind - altering drugs to a depressed , violent , and highly suggestible woman against her will . lois banks dies , her death will be on your hands . [ scene_break ] abe : i 'm fine . it was just a 30-minute operation . i could have done it as an outpatient . it 's not like i was having open - heart surgery . lexie : honey , i know what i 'm doing , okay ? listen , your corneas were attached with extremely fine sutures . you ca n't just go bouncing around everywhere . abe : [ chuckles ] you know , i 'm not planning on jumping off of rooftops or rolling out of a moving car . i 'm walking , that 's all . i feel great . lexie : really ? uh - huh . so your eyes do n't feel scratchy ? no blurred vision ? abe : well , yeah , yeah , that 's normal . i know i 'm gon na have blurry vision for two or three months . surgeon said to expect that whether i 'm walking or lying in bed . look , lexie , i just want to help john . i 'm convinced that alex north has a hidden agenda . and what if he is trying to kill marlena ? lexie : okay . okay . i just do n't want you to overdo it . i , uh , feel the same way about alex as you do . i had a run - in with him when he first came to salem . [ scene_break ] lexie : you 're hypnotizing her ! alex : yes , i am . it 's part of her treatment . lexie : dr. north , i have been your champion since day one . i 'm the one who brought you in on this case , but -- alex : and i am sure that marlena is very grateful . are n't you , marlena ? marlena : yes , i am . lexie : okay , i 'm not so sure about this . from my limited background in psychiatry , this seems very wrong . alex : well , as you 've just stated , your background in psychiatry is quite limited . lexie : but i do recognize this particular technique . it was developed during world war ii as an aggressive type of mind - control . alex : yes , you 're right , but with amnesia patients , it can have the opposite effect and actually reopen their minds . i 'm sure you 're well aware of some techniques that have seemingly paradoxical effects . lexie : all the same , as marlena 's primary care physician and as her friend , i think her husband should approve of this particular technique . [ scene_break ] lexie : i know what you 're trying to do to marlena , and i 'm going to tell john . you want her for yourself . alex : you mean the way you want detective thomas e. kramer for yourself ? lexie : i 'm going to do what i feel is right . abe : what kind of run - in ? lexie : oh , over marlena 's treatment . difference of opinion . i - i feel responsible since i 'm the one who tracked alex down in first place . abe : i wish i 'd been there for you . i did n't know any of that was going on . lexie : no , no , no . i ca n't do this . it 's so confusing . it feels right , but -- tek : it is right . i mean , how can it be wrong if it 's what we both want ? i want you so bad , lexie . i want you so bad . lexie : i want you . i want you . [ panting ] [ scene_break ] lexie : [ sighs ] abe : you ca n't blame yourself , lex . you were just trying to do what was best for marlena . lexie : [ sighs ] yeah , i , uh , i had no idea she and alex were married . abe : well , you know , some marriages are n't meant to stand the test of time . ours , on the other hand ... lexie : [ chuckles ] [ smooches ] i love you so much . listen , um , i have some time between rounds , so why do n't i close the blinds ? and you and i can just have a good old time . [ smooches ] abe : look , sweetheart , sweetheart , we ca n't . [ scene_break ] belle : um , i could n't sleep , so i went up to the roof and shawn was there and we just started talking . shawn d. : then we had icicles hanging off of our ears , so we figured it was time to come in . belle : yeah , but the rooftop door was locked , so we had to come down the fire escape . philip , where 's claire ? philip : [ gasps playfully ] sleeping soundly . we 'll know if she wakes up .. shawn d. : hey , how come you 're still up ? mimi : i could n't sleep either . shawn d. : bunch of insomniacs around here . you know , i can make my grandma caroline 's warm milk and vanilla . mimi : you know what ? i doubt caroline 's recipe is going to help me sleep tonight . belle : what is it , mimi ? is your mom okay ? mimi : my mom 's fine . do n't worry about her . shawn d. : then what is it ? mimi : i have something to say that affects all of us . the timing sucks , i know . we 've all been leaning on each other to get through a really rough time ... [ voice breaking ] but i do n't think that we 're going to be able to do that anymore . belle : what do you mean ? mimi : what i have to say ... will probably tear us all apart . [ scene_break ] billie : this is crazy , bo . i wo n't let you give up your relationship with your wife . she means everything to you . bo : yeah , billie , she does . she does , but that does n't matter to her anymore . she does n't want me in her life now . chelsea : come on , mom , just admit it . you still love bo , and you always have . the only reason you even ever looked at patrick was because bo was taken , but guess what ? he 's not taken anymore . billie : stop it , bo . sober up . yes , what happened to you and hope is the worst thing that could ever happen to parents . you lost your baby boy , but you guys need to talk about this . you need to work it out . bo : i tried to explain why i kept the truth from her . i was only trying to protect her . i did n't want her to go through any more pain , but she did n't want to hear it . [ scene_break ] bo : i 'm sorry . hope : sorry ? our lives , our family has been destroyed . just -- just leave . bo : no . this is my home , and i love you . hope : do n't , please ... do n't say that . just go . bo : hope .... [ scene_break ] bo : hope and i have always been able to work things out , but i do n't think so this time . billie : then you 'd better dig down deep in your heart and figure it out . you have to . you want to tell me what happened ? billie : [ clears throat ] officer : detective brady ... i did n't know . you did this ? bo : a little bit . officer : sir , if the bartender or any of the patrons want to press charges , i 'm gon na have no choice but to arrest you . man : well , i 'm pressing charges . he attacked me , and my partner was just standing there , just drinking a beer . he did n't want to fight or nothing , and this dude hit him when he was n't looking . he probably broke his jaw , man . officer : look , this man is a fellow police officer . man : oh , is that right ? i do n't only want the son of a bitch arrested , i want his badge . [ scene_break ] marlena : i do recall part of my professional training , john , and i completely concur with alex . i think you 're the one responsible for what happened to lois . john : marlena ... you really need to try to listen to what i 'm about to say . i gave lois that serum because it was the only way i could find out what alex was up to . alex : some of us are doctors , john , others attempt to be james bond . tek : hey , shut your mouth . i was affiliated with the isa and john black 's the best . he 's an experienced agent . he 's fully trained in the proper administration of psychoactive drugs . alex : there was nothing proper about any of this . oh , you may very well be the ultimate 007 , but that does not give you the right to administer drugs to a fragile woman without her knowledge or consent . john : look who 's talking . alex : let me ask you something , john . do you know anything about the history of psychiatry ? john : no . alex : no , you do n't , but i do . i 'm a trained psychiatrist , and i can tell you for a fact what you did to that poor woman was enough to cause her to want to commit suicide . john : cool . pulling out all the cards . well , i know for a fact that you did this to lois . you were here , you had motive -- marlena : no , he did not . john : the hospital was in lockdown . you were here the whole time , and he lied to you about where he was 'cause he needed an alibi . it was you who did this to lois . [ scene_break ] abe : sweetheart , uh , you know , i thought you told me that , uh , i should n't be bouncing around . [ chuckles ] lexie : right . right . right . yeah , this is not the time or place to get reacquainted . so why do n't the two of us go away this weekend , hmm ? we could have my mom watch theo , and we could rent our old bungalow at the green mountain lodge . what do you say ? abe : well , uh ... lexie : come on . abe : it sounds nice . lexie : great , great . abe : uh , but we ca n't . lexie : why not ? abe : i want to spend some time with theo . i thought maybe i 'd take him to a hockey game at salem `` u. `` lexie : ah . just the two of you ? abe : well , you can come . i thought you 'd be on call . i mean , not to mention , you hate hockey . lexie : honey , i could take the time off . i would n't be going for the game . i 'd be going to be with you and theo . abe : well , that would be fine . if you want to come along , that 's fine . lexie : why do i get the feeling that 's not ? you want to tell me what 's going on ? abe : nothing . nothing . everything 's fine . lexie : uh - huh . well , then maybe you 'll explain why you 're freezing me out . [ scene_break ] shawn d. : mimi , whatever you have to say , it ca n't be that bad . philip : yeah , after all we 've been through ? belle : really . i mean , there 's nothing that you could say that the four of us could n't handle . mimi : it 's not that exactly . you and i are the ones that stand to lose the most . philip : okay , what are you talking about ? belle : mimi , what is it ? mimi : it 's about claire . belle : what about her ? mimi : she 's not who you think she is . philip : meems , what are you talking about ? mimi : i wish there was another way to tell you . that little girl sleeping so soundly , so peacefully across the hall ... does n't belong to you , philip . belle : what ? mimi : she belongs to you , shawn . claire is your biological daughter . [ scene_break ] officer : settle down , pal . man : i 'm not gon na take this , man . your fellow officer started the brawl here tonight . he came in here with an attitude . if he would have just minded his own business , none of this would have happened . roy : whoa , whoa , whoa , bo did n't start anything . bo : i appreciate you standing up for me , there , but i can handle this my -- look , you want to take me down to the station , arrest me . i 'll go down to the station . billie : roy , roy , can you keep an eye on him , please ? roy : come on , bo , let 's go have that cup of coffee . bo : i do n't want coffee . [ scene_break ] billie : let me talk to you for a second . hey . officer : what 's up ? billie : how you doing ? you , uh , probably heard about bo . his son died . they buried him today . officer : yeah , the whole force was torn up about it . he and his wife are really well - liked in the department . we 're really sorry for their loss . billie : well , then you can understand that he 's not really being himself right now . could you -- could you just let him go ? could you do that for me ? officer : [ sighs ] all right . i 'll look the other way . billie : thank you . officer : but stop him from drinking and take him home . will you do that ? billie : i 'll do anything for him . thanks . officer : you . come on . man : hey , come on ! this is bogus , man ! hey ! [ scene_break ] bo : what did you say to him ? billie : i just reiterated what the bartender said . the biker started it , and if anybody 's gon na be charged , it 's him . roy : here you go , bo . now , be careful . it 's hot . bo : hey , sorry about the mess . i 'll pay for the damages . billie : drink your coffee , bo . let 's get out of here . bo : give me a beer , would you ? billie : hey , what ? excuse me ? are you kidding me ? you ca n't drown your sorrows in alcohol . it 's not gon na help anything . you told me that once upon a time , remember ? bo : okay . could i have a beer ? roy : do n't you think you 've had enough , bo ? bo : [ sighs ] billie : where are you going ? bo : they 're not gon na serve me here , i 'll go someplace where they will . billie : all right , what are the damages ? here . all right , let me know if it 's more . thanks .

[ scene_break ] alex : this is ridiculous . i do n't understand why you 're so upset . marlena : well , how many pieces of jewelry can you buy me ? you think another piece of jewelry from salem place is gon na buy me off ? alex : i said i was sorry . i 'm sorry . i had a little too much to drink , she came on to me . marlena : oh , how long did it take you to pick this out ? were you drinking then ? alex : no . marlena : you did n't even have it engraved . alex : that 's not fair . marlena : take the piece offering and shove it . alex : baby ... come back here ! alex : perfect .

[ scene_break ] john : not gon na talk your way out of this one , north . abe found you lurking in the hallway , and i just happened to find these . alex : so what ? they 're not mine . john : you 're a liar . no doctor would ever discard his surgical greens in an observation room . marlena : that does n't mean they 're his . alex : i do n't know what he 's talking about . i just overheard a nurse talking about lois attempting suicide ? john : oh , you lousy bastard . what , you thought you had to kill her to , what , shut her up so she would n't reveal your plot to kill marlena ? alex : what ? ! what are you talking about ? abe : tek , we 've got our man . take him in . marlena : no ! abe : marlena , step aside . i mean it . marlena : i wo n't . i wo n't do it . look , you and abe and tek have got to stop this witch - hunt . i will not let you do this to my husband . john : your husband is n't who he says he is , and once lois wakes up , she 's gon na set the record straight for everyone .

[ scene_break ] john : lois is gon na make sure that you go away for a long time , pal . come on , marlena . you 're a smart woman . wake up . the truth is right in front of your eyes . just look at him . he 's disappointed that he did n't kill lois . alex : why do you keep saying i tried to kill lois ? it was a suicide attempt . john : yeah , well , we 'll see what she says . lexie : well , do n't get your hopes up . lois may be alive , but she 's nowhere near being able to talk . john : either way , live or die , you 're gon na pay . alex : how many times are you going to make me pay for something i have n't done ? you shot me when i tried to save marlena . john : you broke out of jail , you knocked a cop out , you stole his gun . what the hell was i supposed to think ? alex : that 's your problem . you were n't thinking . i was screaming at the top to my head to anyone that would listen that marlena 's life was in danger . now , if i wanted to kill her , why am i gon na break out of jail and endanger my own life ? my god , i could have killed her a thousand different times if that 's what i wanted to do . stop and think . now , how many accidents could i have faked at my cabin alone ? marlena : lois was the one who tried to kill me , john , on the rooftop . you were there . you saw that . let 's not forget one more thing . you were the one who brought lois to town . this is more your fault than it is alex 's . john : [ sighs ] lexie : if you 'll excuse us , i 'm gon na take abe back to his room . doctor 's orders . abe : i 'm not taking my eyes off north now that i have them back . lexie : honey , i 'd much rather have you looking at me . tek : abe , you just go with lexie . i 've got the situation under control . do n't worry . i 'll handle everybody . abe : all right . i 'll see all of you later . john : thanks , partner . welcome back . [ scene_break ] alex : would you please tell me what is going on here ? and what is this ridiculous idea that i tried to kill lois to keep her from revealing some plot to kill you ? where did he come up with that stupid idea ? marlena : john gave her sodium pentathlon . and apparently she said something that he thought might incriminate you . alex : you did what ? ! you have jeopardized her whole recovery . john : spare me the medical ethics . you not only drugged marlena , you hypnotized her as part of your treatment . you even admitted it . alex : how dare you even compare that . i was trying to help marlena regain her memory . what you did to that highly susceptible woman is barbaric and inhumane . and what makes matters worse , you did it for your own personal gains . let me tell you something . if anyone is to blame for what has happened to lois , it is john black . he had no right to administer mind - altering drugs to a depressed , violent , and highly suggestible woman against her will . lois banks dies , her death will be on your hands . [ scene_break ] abe : i 'm fine . it was just a 30-minute operation . i could have done it as an outpatient . it 's not like i was having open - heart surgery . lexie : honey , i know what i 'm doing , okay ? listen , your corneas were attached with extremely fine sutures . you ca n't just go bouncing around everywhere . abe : [ chuckles ] you know , i 'm not planning on jumping off of rooftops or rolling out of a moving car . i 'm walking , that 's all . i feel great . lexie : really ? uh - huh . so your eyes do n't feel scratchy ? no blurred vision ? abe : well , yeah , yeah , that 's normal . i know i 'm gon na have blurry vision for two or three months . surgeon said to expect that whether i 'm walking or lying in bed . look , lexie , i just want to help john . i 'm convinced that alex north has a hidden agenda . and what if he is trying to kill marlena ? lexie : okay . okay . i just do n't want you to overdo it . i , uh , feel the same way about alex as you do . i had a run - in with him when he first came to salem . [ scene_break ] lexie : you 're hypnotizing her ! alex : yes , i am . it 's part of her treatment . lexie : dr. north , i have been your champion since day one . i 'm the one who brought you in on this case , but -- alex : and i am sure that marlena is very grateful . are n't you , marlena ? marlena : yes , i am . lexie : okay , i 'm not so sure about this . from my limited background in psychiatry , this seems very wrong . alex : well , as you 've just stated , your background in psychiatry is quite limited . lexie : but i do recognize this particular technique . it was developed during world war ii as an aggressive type of mind - control . alex : yes , you 're right , but with amnesia patients , it can have the opposite effect and actually reopen their minds . i 'm sure you 're well aware of some techniques that have seemingly paradoxical effects . lexie : all the same , as marlena 's primary care physician and as her friend , i think her husband should approve of this particular technique . [ scene_break ] lexie : i know what you 're trying to do to marlena , and i 'm going to tell john . you want her for yourself . alex : you mean the way you want detective thomas e. kramer for yourself ? lexie : i 'm going to do what i feel is right . abe : what kind of run - in ? lexie : oh , over marlena 's treatment . difference of opinion . i - i feel responsible since i 'm the one who tracked alex down in first place . abe : i wish i 'd been there for you . i did n't know any of that was going on . lexie : no , no , no . i ca n't do this . it 's so confusing . it feels right , but -- tek : it is right . i mean , how can it be wrong if it 's what we both want ? i want you so bad , lexie . i want you so bad . lexie : i want you . i want you . [ panting ] [ scene_break ] lexie : [ sighs ] abe : you ca n't blame yourself , lex . you were just trying to do what was best for marlena . lexie : [ sighs ] yeah , i , uh , i had no idea she and alex were married . abe : well , you know , some marriages are n't meant to stand the test of time . ours , on the other hand ... lexie : [ chuckles ] [ smooches ] i love you so much . listen , um , i have some time between rounds , so why do n't i close the blinds ? and you and i can just have a good old time . [ smooches ] abe : look , sweetheart , sweetheart , we ca n't . [ scene_break ] belle : um , i could n't sleep , so i went up to the roof and shawn was there and we just started talking . shawn d. : then we had icicles hanging off of our ears , so we figured it was time to come in . belle : yeah , but the rooftop door was locked , so we had to come down the fire escape . philip , where 's claire ? philip : [ gasps playfully ] sleeping soundly . we 'll know if she wakes up .. shawn d. : hey , how come you 're still up ? mimi : i could n't sleep either . shawn d. : bunch of insomniacs around here . you know , i can make my grandma caroline 's warm milk and vanilla . mimi : you know what ? i doubt caroline 's recipe is going to help me sleep tonight . belle : what is it , mimi ? is your mom okay ? mimi : my mom 's fine . do n't worry about her . shawn d. : then what is it ? mimi : i have something to say that affects all of us . the timing sucks , i know . we 've all been leaning on each other to get through a really rough time ... [ voice breaking ] but i do n't think that we 're going to be able to do that anymore . belle : what do you mean ? mimi : what i have to say ... will probably tear us all apart . [ scene_break ] billie : this is crazy , bo . i wo n't let you give up your relationship with your wife . she means everything to you . bo : yeah , billie , she does . she does , but that does n't matter to her anymore . she does n't want me in her life now . chelsea : come on , mom , just admit it . you still love bo , and you always have . the only reason you even ever looked at patrick was because bo was taken , but guess what ? he 's not taken anymore . billie : stop it , bo . sober up . yes , what happened to you and hope is the worst thing that could ever happen to parents . you lost your baby boy , but you guys need to talk about this . you need to work it out . bo : i tried to explain why i kept the truth from her . i was only trying to protect her . i did n't want her to go through any more pain , but she did n't want to hear it . [ scene_break ] bo : i 'm sorry . hope : sorry ? our lives , our family has been destroyed . just -- just leave . bo : no . this is my home , and i love you . hope : do n't , please ... do n't say that . just go . bo : hope .... [ scene_break ] bo : hope and i have always been able to work things out , but i do n't think so this time . billie : then you 'd better dig down deep in your heart and figure it out . you have to . you want to tell me what happened ? billie : [ clears throat ] officer : detective brady ... i did n't know . you did this ? bo : a little bit . officer : sir , if the bartender or any of the patrons want to press charges , i 'm gon na have no choice but to arrest you . man : well , i 'm pressing charges . he attacked me , and my partner was just standing there , just drinking a beer . he did n't want to fight or nothing , and this dude hit him when he was n't looking . he probably broke his jaw , man . officer : look , this man is a fellow police officer . man : oh , is that right ? i do n't only want the son of a bitch arrested , i want his badge . [ scene_break ] marlena : i do recall part of my professional training , john , and i completely concur with alex . i think you 're the one responsible for what happened to lois . john : marlena ... you really need to try to listen to what i 'm about to say . i gave lois that serum because it was the only way i could find out what alex was up to . alex : some of us are doctors , john , others attempt to be james bond . tek : hey , shut your mouth . i was affiliated with the isa and john black 's the best . he 's an experienced agent . he 's fully trained in the proper administration of psychoactive drugs . alex : there was nothing proper about any of this . oh , you may very well be the ultimate 007 , but that does not give you the right to administer drugs to a fragile woman without her knowledge or consent . john : look who 's talking . alex : let me ask you something , john . do you know anything about the history of psychiatry ? john : no . alex : no , you do n't , but i do . i 'm a trained psychiatrist , and i can tell you for a fact what you did to that poor woman was enough to cause her to want to commit suicide . john : cool . pulling out all the cards . well , i know for a fact that you did this to lois . you were here , you had motive -- marlena : no , he did not . john : the hospital was in lockdown . you were here the whole time , and he lied to you about where he was 'cause he needed an alibi . it was you who did this to lois . [ scene_break ] abe : sweetheart , uh , you know , i thought you told me that , uh , i should n't be bouncing around . [ chuckles ] lexie : right . right . right . yeah , this is not the time or place to get reacquainted . so why do n't the two of us go away this weekend , hmm ? we could have my mom watch theo , and we could rent our old bungalow at the green mountain lodge . what do you say ? abe : well , uh ... lexie : come on . abe : it sounds nice . lexie : great , great . abe : uh , but we ca n't . lexie : why not ? abe : i want to spend some time with theo . i thought maybe i 'd take him to a hockey game at salem `` u. `` lexie : ah . just the two of you ? abe : well , you can come . i thought you 'd be on call . i mean , not to mention , you hate hockey . lexie : honey , i could take the time off . i would n't be going for the game . i 'd be going to be with you and theo . abe : well , that would be fine . if you want to come along , that 's fine . lexie : why do i get the feeling that 's not ? you want to tell me what 's going on ? abe : nothing . nothing . everything 's fine . lexie : uh - huh . well , then maybe you 'll explain why you 're freezing me out . [ scene_break ] shawn d. : mimi , whatever you have to say , it ca n't be that bad . philip : yeah , after all we 've been through ? belle : really . i mean , there 's nothing that you could say that the four of us could n't handle . mimi : it 's not that exactly . you and i are the ones that stand to lose the most . philip : okay , what are you talking about ? belle : mimi , what is it ? mimi : it 's about claire . belle : what about her ? mimi : she 's not who you think she is . philip : meems , what are you talking about ? mimi : i wish there was another way to tell you . that little girl sleeping so soundly , so peacefully across the hall ... does n't belong to you , philip . belle : what ? mimi : she belongs to you , shawn . claire is your biological daughter . [ scene_break ] officer : settle down , pal . man : i 'm not gon na take this , man . your fellow officer started the brawl here tonight . he came in here with an attitude . if he would have just minded his own business , none of this would have happened . roy : whoa , whoa , whoa , bo did n't start anything . bo : i appreciate you standing up for me , there , but i can handle this my -- look , you want to take me down to the station , arrest me . i 'll go down to the station . billie : roy , roy , can you keep an eye on him , please ? roy : come on , bo , let 's go have that cup of coffee . bo : i do n't want coffee . [ scene_break ] billie : let me talk to you for a second . hey . officer : what 's up ? billie : how you doing ? you , uh , probably heard about bo . his son died . they buried him today . officer : yeah , the whole force was torn up about it . he and his wife are really well - liked in the department . we 're really sorry for their loss . billie : well , then you can understand that he 's not really being himself right now . could you -- could you just let him go ? could you do that for me ? officer : [ sighs ] all right . i 'll look the other way . billie : thank you . officer : but stop him from drinking and take him home . will you do that ? billie : i 'll do anything for him . thanks . officer : you . come on . man : hey , come on ! this is bogus , man ! hey ! [ scene_break ] bo : what did you say to him ? billie : i just reiterated what the bartender said . the biker started it , and if anybody 's gon na be charged , it 's him . roy : here you go , bo . now , be careful . it 's hot . bo : hey , sorry about the mess . i 'll pay for the damages . billie : drink your coffee , bo . let 's get out of here . bo : give me a beer , would you ? billie : hey , what ? excuse me ? are you kidding me ? you ca n't drown your sorrows in alcohol . it 's not gon na help anything . you told me that once upon a time , remember ? bo : okay . could i have a beer ? roy : do n't you think you 've had enough , bo ? bo : [ sighs ] billie : where are you going ? bo : they 're not gon na serve me here , i 'll go someplace where they will . billie : all right , what are the damages ? here . all right , let me know if it 's more . thanks . [ scene_break ] alex : i was in the hospital . marlena : when you spoke to me on your cellphone , you were in salem place .. john : he 's a liar . officer , arrest him for attempted murder . alex : wait a minute , wait a minute . just because i said i was in the hospital does n't mean i tried to kill lois , and i can prove it . john : oh , yeah ? how ? alex : because i do have an alibi , john . [ scene_break ] alex : this is ridiculous . i do n't understand why you 're so upset . marlena : well , how many pieces of jewelry can you buy me ? you think another piece of jewelry from salem place is gon na buy me off ? alex : i said i was sorry . i 'm sorry . i had a little too much to drink , she came on to me . marlena : oh , how long did it take you to pick this out ? were you drinking then ? alex : no . marlena : you did n't even have it engraved . alex : that 's not fair . marlena : take the piece offering and shove it . alex : baby ... come back here ! alex : perfect . [ scene_break ] alex : here . john : what is it ? tek : it 's a receipt from a jewelry store . alex : and please note the time stamp on the receipt . tek : according to this , alex was in salem place at the time lois was being attacked . marlena : all righty . there 's no way you can hold him . alex : could n't have said it better myself . let 's go . john : not so fast . [ scene_break ] abe : sweetheart , i ... i 'm not freezing you out . lexie : then why do i get the feeling you 're avoiding being alone with me ? is it because of your -- because of your problem ? abe : my impotency . it 's okay to say the word . lexie : um , i 'm sorry , honey . i 'm sorry . i know it must be weighing heavily on your mind , but sweetheart , honey , i promise you , we can work through it . come on , if we were able to overcome your blindness , then certainly we can find a way to deal with your impotency . abe : [ sighs ] lexie : you know , there are other things we can do , you know ? abe : you think so ? lexie : mm - hmm . what do you say , hmm ? why do n't we go away together and just ... just be with one another , just see what happens ? abe : i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry , sweetheart . it 's just ... now 's not the time .

[ scene_break ] brooke : i realize you 've started something with ashley , and you have her feelings to consider . but , ridge , these last few days up in big bear , waking up in the same home together and having our children surround us , i know you had to feel the same way i did . ridge : brooke . brooke : you are my savior , and for as long as i live , i will never forget what you 've done for me , what we 've been to each other . and i know in your heart , that you 'll never forget it either . ashley : i know . i know . brooke 's never gon na be completely out of ridge 's life because they have a child . obviously , that 's not the case with nick . taylor : thank god . ashley : ( laughs ) taylor : um , well , but if you want to be with ridge , i - i can give you one good piece of advice and that is to never let your guard down . brooke certainly wo n't let a little thing like his interest in you get in the way , much less a - a big commitment . ashley : hmm . so you 're telling me that i 'm in for what , one hell of a fight ? is that what you 're saying ? taylor : um , no . brooke does n't go quietly . ashley : really ? well , maybe i should . and do n't get me wrong . i - i think that ridge is very , very special . i just refuse to let myself get drawn into a competition for any man . taylor : hmm . ashley : i mean , never again . taylor : mm . ashley : what ? what , you do n't believe me ? taylor : no , i believe you . i heard exactly what you said , ashley : no , you just do n't . taylor : and i know you think you believe what you just said , but i - i 'm getting the feeling that really you 've -- you 've fallen really hard for ridge . i - i do n't know . i could be wrong . ashley : you 're not wrong . taylor : mm . then , um , you just have to hang in there . really , i 'm living proof that you can have a life after brooke . in fact , i do n't think -- i do n't think i 've ever been this happy in my life . [ scene_break ] nick : well , this just -- it just ca n't happen . bridget : but , nick , we do n't know that it has . in all likelihood , the donor 's eggs were the ones that were used . nick : but you 're not sure , are you ? bridget : university hospital is one of the best medical facilities in the nation . but -- but even with a million safeguards , mistakes can occur . but i have been assured by the people who would know that the probability of this happening is extremely low , if not impossible . nick : how long have you known about this ? bridget : i 've known for quite a while . nick : quite a while ? you 've known for almost six months , and you 're just telling me this now ? how could you keep this from me ? bridget : because dr. mills , the chief of staff , came to me and told me that i had lost my professional objectivity because i was too close to the situation . nick : too close to the situation ? so you just shut up about it the whole time ? bridget : no , nick . i became convinced that this was impossible ! nick : well , you were convinced , but what about this -- this ferret guy that you work with ? he 's in the lab . he believes it could happen . bridget : he does n't have any proof . he just overdramatizes everything . nick : but still , the wrong egg could have been implanted inside of my wife . even you admit that . bridget : nick , i have to believe that taylor is carrying your baby with the donor . everything inside of me is telling me that , all of my professional instincts . bridget : it 's what my heart believes . nick : but what if you 're wrong ? what if your instincts in your heart are wrong , and taylor 's actually carrying around brooke 's child ? nick : what do you suggest i do ?Summarize.[/INST]nick paces as he remembers the cryptic message he overheard of bridget talking to carl where she told him to forget the lab , forget the eggs , forget taylor 's pregnancy . carl follows bridget home and insists they continue to talk about this . she reprimands him that if he continues with this , she is going to have to cut off any association with him . as nick pounds on her door , she pushes carl to the rear of the house . nick demands to know if there is something wrong with the baby ; he wants to know now ! she 's astonished that he knows about the conversation with carl , but she stammers everything is alright with the baby . he still insists on knowing what was going on over the phone . he knows it has something to do with taylor 's baby , and he wo n't leave until she tells him . ashley drops off some new packaging and fragrances to taylor for phoebe . taylor quizzes her about ridge , and ashley admits she has n't seen him in a few days . brooke shows her gratitude to ridge for being so good to her , being there for her . now she can reclaim her life . she does n't want to reclaim her life without him . he assures her that she has already done that by fighting back ; now she can take the next step . the sooner they can get back to normal , the better off they will be . ashley confesses to taylor that she has heard about brooke 's enormous hold she has on her men . taylor is thankful that she does n't have to deal with brooke in her life again . bridget explains to nick it all started in australia . when brooke came back and wanted nick again , brooke wanted to make sure she could still have a baby , and she checked that out .and in the process taylor was being implanted with donor eggs , and the two sets showed up showing marone . there might have been some confusion .. they ca n't be 100 % certain which eggs were implanted in taylor . he asks her to please tell him she is not saying that the egg inside taylor did not come from the donor , but from brooke .</s> | 5,403 |

[ scene_break ] claudia : look , investing in the casino is a great idea . except for the minor detail . luke spencer happens to own that one and luke was loyal to sonny . as a matter of fact , when i went there to talk to him about the corinthos organization , he would n't give me a shred of information . when i left , luke probably picked up the phone and called sonny and told him i was nosing around . which could be a big problem . johnny : where are you going with this ? claudia : i 'm saying -- he 's a smart guy . sonny ends up dead , we do n't want luke putting two and two together , realizing that we 're the ones who killed him . johnny : well , it should n't be a problem if you cover your tracks like you said you would . claudia : i 'm covering my tracks . i 've got my side . i 'm just wondering why , i mean i 'm just curious why you suddenly want to buy luke spencer 's casino . johnny : it 's a good business move . claudia : it 's also access to lulu .

[ scene_break ] rex : well , you 're certainly not hiding anything there . maybe in here . [ scene_break ] viki : i 'm sorry . no . i am not going to participate in this plot of yours to interfere in joey 's life . if it is a mistake that he marries aubrey , and i 'm not convinced that it is , it will be his mistake to make . clint : and the rest of us pay the price ? viki : oh , for heavens sakes will you stop ? it 's enough about the money . clint : viki , it 's not just money i 'm worried about . i 'm also worried about joey . he does n't know this girl , and i do n't want to see our son get hurt . viki : well , neither do i , okay ? but plotting against him and not respecting his choice , the only thing that will get you is further alienation from your son , so if you do n't want that to happen , i would suggest you let it go . clint : well , that 's easier said than done . viki : perhaps . however , as i am continually reminding myself these days lately , if two people are really , really in love , then a third person can not break them up no matter how hard she tries . [ scene_break ] bo : i did n't know you were in trouble . and we had just had that argument , and honestly , i believed that you were still angry at me . nora : and that i would go off -- without a word ? bo : i do n't know . i thought you needed time for yourself . i thought maybe you 'd gone off somewhere just to cool off , and then i started getting all those text messages telling me that you could n't forgive me and then telling me that i should -- nora : they were n't even from me . eddie wrote those text messages . bo : i did n't know that . nora : it -- oh , come on , bo . do you honestly think that i would send you a text message telling you to go to bed with another woman ? bo : well , it did n't make any sense . i admit that . but i had no reason to -- nora : is that all it took , was just a couple of text messages and off you 'd hop into bed with somebody else ? is it really -- i mean , come on , one lousy argument , and then that -- oh , of course . it 's sam rappaport . that 's what this is . bo : no . nora : no , that 's why it was so easy for you to hop into bed with inez . bo : no . nora : oh , my god . you wanted to pay me back for -- for sam . because i hurt you back then , you wanted to hurt me now the way -- i hurt you . congratulations . you did . [ scene_break ] kelly : look , cris , just because it looks like -- cristian : like she 's getting ready to jump this guy . kelly : no , probably does n't mean anything . you know , this photo has got to be posed . cristian : and she could n't have refused to have posed with her hands down her boss ' pants . joey : well , it 's just in the guy 's pocket . kelly : you know what , cris ? call layla . ask her about it . i 'm sure she has -- cristian : i already called her . i left , like , 20 messages . i was going crazy waiting for her to call me back . that 's why i came here . i just need to punch something . that 's what i need to do . joey : i feel for him . kelly : oh , me , too . joey : maybe you 're right . maybe this is not what it seems . maybe this is all just one big publicity stunt . kelly : well , not according to the rest of the caption . i 'm not really all that rusty . to think your fiancée could be hiding something from you [ scene_break ] rex : thank you , aubrey , for storing your password . [ door opening ] [ scene_break ] john : so what 's the news ? marty : ah -- cole got the books that you sent him , and he wanted me to thank you . john : good . how 's he doing ? marty : well , he survived his first christmas in prison , but that 's about the best i can say . what 's your news ? john : natalie and i are getting married . marty : that 's not news . natalie 's voice : you know why i 'm here . we 're happy , marty . please do n't tell him this is n't his baby . john : how 'd you find out ? [ scene_break ] clint : is there something that you want to tell me ? your tone changed when you mentioned a third person trying to break up a couple . viki : yes , well , that is what echo is trying to do to charlie and me . ever since that damn dna test proved that she and charlie are rex 's parents , that woman has insinuated herself into my life , into my home . i am sick of it ! i know . i sound like a broken record . clint : i did n't realize you were having this much trouble . viki : you must have been the only person in town who did n't . poor nora . before christmas , she and i were commiserating about our respective situations . clint : and what situation does nora have ? viki : oh , i 'm sorry . i should n't have said anything . i ca n't betray a confidence . clint : oh , i understand , but i kind of know what 's going on 'cause bo confided in me . viki : poor nora . i mean , to be kidnapped by that awful man ? clint : that 's terrible . viki : and he was torturing her psychologically . clint : a bullet was just too good for him . viki : i do n't get what he was doing . sending text messages supposedly from nora to bo urging bo to sleep with his secretary . i mean , who does that ? clint : that does n't make any sense at all . viki : no . did you know that that man was inez 's ex - husband ? clint : i did , yes . viki : yeah , well , nora thinks inez put him up to it . well , you know inez . do you think she 's capable of that ? clint : viki , i really do n't know . viki : i find it so hard to imagine anyone going to that extent to get between bo and nora . [ scene_break ] bo : i swear to you , red , this was n't payback . this had nothing to do with sam rappaport . i never set out to hurt you . nora : then why did you keep her working for you when i told you over and over again all she wanted to do was get you into bed ? why did you make me feel like some sort of crazy jealous fool when all along i was right ? bo : but i never wanted to make you feel that way . nora : why did you tell her those things , all those intimate details about our life ? why would you share that with that woman , when all she wanted to do was use them -- against me ? my god , she used those texts to lure you ? bo : i just -- i still ca n't believe that inez has anything to do with any of this . nora : oh , my god ! you 're still defending her ? bo : no . no . nora : do you think it was just coincidence that i ended up being kidnapped and tied and gagged and molested by her ex - husband , when inez had just gotten you all alone in her apartment ? do you think that was coincidence ? bo : none of this makes any sense to me . nora : no , because inez -- she could n't hurt anybody , you know . right . who really is the injured party here , bo ? bo : you are -- because i betrayed you , and i betrayed our marriage . i wish i could just turn everything back and erase it all , but i ca n't . all i can do is tell you that nothing like this will ever happen again , and it wo n't . because i love you , red , and i will do any and everything i can to make this up to you -- because i do love you . can you forgive me ? nora : can i ever forgive you ? i do n't know whether i can believe you . you say this happened once , that it 's not an affair , that it 'll never happen again . but you 're telling me all this why ? because you got caught . i think that 's the biggest problem i have here . it is the biggest problem . this is my problem with this . you were n't gon na tell me . you were n't gon na tell me . and the only reason why you did was because matthew , our son , forced you to . bo : no . i should have come clean right away , and i did n't . and that was a mistake . but it was because i did n't want to hurt you since i knew that there was never gon na be a repeat . nora : really ? bo : yes . we can get past this , red . we 're stronger than this . nora : since when ? since you forgave me ? bo : and i did . i did , i swear . we got past sam rappaport . we made it all the way back to each other . nora : how long did it take you to forgive me , bo ? a decade ? it took you 10 years to forgive me . how long is it supposed to take for me to forgive you ? i do n't know . [ scene_break ] viki : i just hope that despite nora 's concern inez can not get between them . clint : i certainly hope not . viki : do you really ? did you mean that ? clint : yeah , why ? viki : i think for a while , it looked as if you were never gon na stop holding a grudge against your brother and nora . i think that would have been a terrible shame . clint : why waste time with resentment ? viki : i 'm wasting so much time and energy on that stupid echo . clint : want me to get rid of her for you ? viki : what does that mean ? clint : it 's just a figure of speech . viki : oh , i 'm not crazy about the implication . clint : you always did take the high road , viki . viki : yeah , well , not so much anymore . i actually have somebody looking into my echo problem as we speak . clint : oh ? who ? viki : never mind . i 've said enough . clint : this has really got you rattled , has n't it ? viki : yes , it really does . i understand why charlie wants to help echo because she 's the mother of his child . but that means that woman is in my life forever ! clint : i 'm sorry , viki . viki : what are you sorry for ? it 's not your fault that charlie instead of you turned out to be rex 's father .

's biggest contributor . it would take a phone call , 10 minutes tops , and i would n't just be doing it to help robert . i mean , the university would benefit by having him back on staff . inez : even someone that was accused of sexual harassment ? i do n't think so . clint : why are you fighting me on this ? inez : i told you . bobby does n't want any help from anyone even associated with me . clint : is that the only reason ? inez : no . clint : what else ? inez : i guess i 'm wondering how long you can continue to help me without expecting something in return .

[ scene_break ] john : thank you . natalie : did you get anything from the nurse ? john : nurse said téa was too sedated to say much and that dr. evans handled most of the care himself . natalie : great . so no one will contradict evans ' story . that means we 're right back where we started . john : not exactly . the nurse did say that dr. evans had been back to st. kitts since téa 's death . natalie : what for ? john : that 's what we 're gon na find out .

[ scene_break ] inez : please do n't misunderstand . i am overwhelmed with the interest that you 've taken in my family . when my son james graduates from college , he will owe it all to you , but to try to fix things for bobby , too , it 's so much . clint : and you want to know what 's in it for me . inez : i do n't want to sound suspicious . i 'm just trying to understand why you would want to do this for someone you barely know . clint : inez , i 'm a rich man . now , some people think i should keep that under my hat like money is something you 're not supposed to talk about , but why the hell not ? i like having money . i like the power that comes with it , but power is no fun unless you can use it every once in a while . so do n't take the fun out of my life , please . inez : that 's a nice way to put it . clint : here 's the bottom line . you do n't own me anything . yes , i would like to get to know you better , but if you think we should go our separate ways , well , then so be it . i 'll take it like a grownup , but the offer to help robert , that still stands regardless . inez : so all you 're asking of me is the pleasure of my company ? clint : you say that like it 's a small thing . it 's not , not to me .

's biggest contributor . it would take a phone call , 10 minutes tops , and i would n't just be doing it to help robert . i mean , the university would benefit by having him back on staff . inez : even someone that was accused of sexual harassment ? i do n't think so . clint : why are you fighting me on this ? inez : i told you . bobby does n't want any help from anyone even associated with me . clint : is that the only reason ? inez : no . clint : what else ? inez : i guess i 'm wondering how long you can continue to help me without expecting something in return .

[ scene_break ] john : thank you . natalie : did you get anything from the nurse ? john : nurse said téa was too sedated to say much and that dr. evans handled most of the care himself . natalie : great . so no one will contradict evans ' story . that means we 're right back where we started . john : not exactly . the nurse did say that dr. evans had been back to st. kitts since téa 's death . natalie : what for ? john : that 's what we 're gon na find out .

[ scene_break ] inez : please do n't misunderstand . i am overwhelmed with the interest that you 've taken in my family . when my son james graduates from college , he will owe it all to you , but to try to fix things for bobby , too , it 's so much . clint : and you want to know what 's in it for me . inez : i do n't want to sound suspicious . i 'm just trying to understand why you would want to do this for someone you barely know . clint : inez , i 'm a rich man . now , some people think i should keep that under my hat like money is something you 're not supposed to talk about , but why the hell not ? i like having money . i like the power that comes with it , but power is no fun unless you can use it every once in a while . so do n't take the fun out of my life , please . inez : that 's a nice way to put it . clint : here 's the bottom line . you do n't own me anything . yes , i would like to get to know you better , but if you think we should go our separate ways , well , then so be it . i 'll take it like a grownup , but the offer to help robert , that still stands regardless . inez : so all you 're asking of me is the pleasure of my company ? clint : you say that like it 's a small thing . it 's not , not to me .

nate : patient after patient . by the way , i discharged the woman you talked about the other day . elena : ugh . the one that i almost misdiagnosed ? i 'm still kicking myself for being distracted . nate : she is doing fine and at home now . elena : thank you for that . and thank you for talking me down the other day . you really are a good friend . nate : i know how much you 're dealing with . devon being taken advantage of , all the loss he 's endured , amanda and hilary ... elena : [ chuckles ] yeah , when you lay it out like that , i 'm surprised we 're both still standing . nate : but you are . i admire how you two are working through it . elena : we 're trying . nate : i think acknowledging amanda was a victim , too , can take some of the pressure off . i hope you guys move on . elena : but what if she was n't ? nate : what if she was n't what ? elena : the victim . what if you 're the one who 's been wrong about amanda this whole time ? victoria : the project is on schedule , and it 's under budget . yes , so we 're good to go . okay , we 'll talk soon . dad ! hi ! victor : well ... victoria : are you okay ? victor : hi , sweetheart . yes ! victoria : oh ! victor : well , it sounds as if i made the right decision , putting you in charge . victor : well , good job to you , too . you know , it takes skill to turn a compliment about me into an opportunity to pay yourself on the back for having good judgment . victor : my baby ... victoria : [ giggles ] victor : you 're doing a hell of a job , you really are . victoria : thank you . victor : yep . victoria : so , are you just stopping by ? victor : well , i had an appointment around the corner , so i thought i 'd stop by , you know , but if you 're busy ... victoria : no , of course not . victor : you sure ? victoria : i always have time for you , yes . victor : okay . victoria : how are you doing ? victor : i 'm doing good , you know , actually doing very well . i went sailing with my crew . over the weekend , we won a race . victoria : oh , great ! victor : yeah . in fact , i 'm gon na buy a bigger yacht , a 40-footer . average speed , 30 knots , you know ? yeah . victoria : um ... daddy . victor : uh - huh . victoria : you know , it 's okay to say that you miss it here . victor : hmm . is it that obvious ? [ exhales sharply ] i poured my heart and soul into this place . most of my adult life , you know ? victoria : i know . victor : but that does not mean that i regret stepping back . it was the right time , and , uh , i made the right decision , you know ? not gon na mount a comeback . victoria : well ... that 's good to hear . listen , if you want me to fill you in on anything ... victor : no , no , no . victoria : does n't matter , whatever it is ... victor : no . no , no . i 'm not gon na look over your shoulder . victoria : well , you are showing a lot of restraint , and i appreciate that . victor : yeah . does this place make you as happy as it made me ? victoria : [ sighs ] yes . i 'm living my dream . victor : so , how does all that sit with billy boy ? everything all right ? victoria : yes , it is ! we 're happy . we could n't be happier . wow ! nate : i ca n't believe we 're back to square one , again . the last time we spoke , you said you understood how unfair it was to blame amanda for how she looks . elena : i know , i did , but hear me out . nate : i 've already heard you . you 're stuck on this to the point of becoming obsessed . elena : [ sighs ] okay . i 'll admit it , it 's been a struggle for me dealing with hilary . i meant amanda . both of them . honestly , they 're both intertwined in my head . okay , look , it was hard enough for me to deal with the memory of devon 's wife . it 's like she was everywhere -- in his mind , pictures all over the penthouse , and then devon was finally getting closure , and we were both moving on , and now ... amanda . and it 's shocking for me to see her every day , so i can only imagine how hard it is for devon . look , i know your ta had an impact on him . and thank you so much for being there for him , but ... it did n't fix everything . devon still has questions about ... amanda , and ... i do , too . and so should you . nate : where is this all coming from ? billy : hey . you having some coffee . amanda : yes , um , this is a coffeehouse . billy : yeah . it is . i thought it 'd be weird to not say hi . amanda : so weird . sit down . amanda : so , how are you doing ? billy : how am i doing ? i 'm good . i 'm good . i got a new consulting job . amanda : oh , wow ! well ... billy : yeah . amanda : congratulations . billy : thank you very much . it 's my first job since leaving my family company . i kind of feel like a kid that graduated middle school that 's trying to get all buff during the summer , getting ready for high school , you know ? amanda : well , except you 're a grown man . billy : yeah . amanda : and do n't take this the wrong way , but you are handsome , you are successful , and you are moderately charming , so i think it 's probably okay for you to just ... be yourself . billy : yes , but you 've only met my representative . amanda : oh , true . billy : the real me is a frog - like creature covered in warts . amanda : [ giggles ] okay , tmi , i do not need to see your warts . we are not those kinds of friends . billy : oh , are we friends now ? amanda : well , i think a certain number of conversations probably meets the definition . billy : okay . i 'll go with that . amanda : we also have a great deal in common , so ... billy : we -- we do . we do . we have figured that one out . amanda : i spend the whole day acting like i am unbreakable and untouchable , and i 'm exhausted . billy : it 's hard to pretend to be someone that you 're not to everyone around you . amanda : [ sighs ] billy : you know , if you want to share any of these mistakes or anything , i guarantee you that i will match you blow for blow . amanda : [ chuckles ] no , we are not those kinds of friends . yet . kyle : really ? you 're gon na play the victim ? theo : you did n't answer my question . i know that meeting was scheduled for tomorrow . i confirmed it with tim 's assistant myself . kyle : well , why do n't we call his assistant and see if that 's true . theo : okay , calling to check up on me will make us both look like fumbling idiots . the situation is resolved , and you are the c.e.o . of a major company . act like it . kyle : you ca n't admit you made a mistake , and i cleaned up your mess . you should be thanking me . theo : that 's not gon na happen . i 'm gon na close this deal , and then you can thank me . kyle : right . this deal 's gon na be epic ! it 's all about relationships . theo : hilarious . kyle : i hope it works out . i really do . because , like you said , i 'm in charge . if i was going to sabotage you , do you really think i 'd do it at the expense of the company i run ? you screwed up all on your own , cuz . you did n't need any help from me . summer : oh , my gosh , it is exhausting having to constantly be the referee between kyle and theo . jack : i can imagine . look , that is not your job . theo reports to you . your job is to get him to his a - game . summer : i know . no , i know , it 's just so much easier said than done . jack : i realize it 's a complex dynamic . this whole corporate structure is new to theo . summer : yeah , he 's trying really hard to fit in . jack : yeah , he 's doing the same thing with the family , and kyle is n't making it easy for him on either front . and i realize it is n't easy for kyle to take on his responsibilities as co - c.e.o . with theo around . summer : oh , my gosh , this whole thing is just a mess . do you really think it can work itself out ? jack : i think this is an opportunity for kyle to find his management style in dealing with a complex situation . summer : so you mean like a test ? eco mpetition `` the young and the restless `` will continue . jack : not so much a test as an opportunity . look , i have all the faith in the world in kyle . i would n't have kept him on as co - c.e.o . if i didn't . this is an opportunity to learn . i know he has issues with theo . i also know he is going to have the company 's best interest at heart . eventually , that will be the priority . summer : and what about theo ? jack : theo 's a hardworking , ambitious man . they 're both very capable . summer : so you 're saying that i do n't need to mediate . jack : no , uh , given your history , i think you 're a little too close to the situation . summer : okay , i just want you to know that i 've been completely professional with all of this . jack : no , no , i -- i do n't doubt that for a second . i 'm just saying , in this particular situation , take a step back . summer : okay , i mean , yeah , it 's -- it 's better for me , too . i do n't need all that added stress , anyway . jack : right ? summer : yeah . jack : so a hands - off approach is best for everyone . we 're agreed ? summer : yep . thank you . jack : thank you . summer : hey , theo , um , do you want to go over what we discussed in the meeting ? theo : um , could we do it a little later ? i need to focus on this circe thing . summer : yeah , sure . kyle : can you believe he accused me of sabotaging him ? summer : okay , we need to talk . come on , let 's get out of here . amanda : can i ask you a question , if you 're up for it ? billy : shoot . amanda : are you looking to have an affair ? billy : pardon me ? uh , no . no , no , i 'm , uh -- why would you ask me that ? amanda : well , you are a man in a committed relationship , and you keep striking up conversations with me . billy : so men and women ca n't be friends ? i mean , have you not seen the movie `` when harry met sally ? `` i think it kind of settled that debate . amanda : i think the whole point of that movie is that they were more than friends . billy : oh , so you 're gon na cross - examine my knowledge of ' 80s rom - coms now ? amanda : oh , no , i am cross - examining you . why is it every time i see you , you 're alone , and what is with this vibe between us ? billy : oh , what `` vibe `` between us ? amanda : [ scoffs ] this banter ? you trying to charm me to ... tell you more about myself , even though you will not admit that that is what you are doing ... come on , every -- every man that has ever chatted me up like this , they were just , you know , working up the nerve to ask me out . billy : [ sighs ] well , i do have a natural flirtiness that spills out of me . amanda : oh ! it just spills out . billy : yes , and you are the one that said i am moderately charming . no , i am not trying to sleep with you . amanda : okay . mm - hmm . billy : okay . are you trying to sleep with me ? amanda : no , i am not . billy : okay . well , good on you for just putting it out there like that . amanda : yeah , you know , i thought we should just get it out of the way . billy : yeah , clearly . amanda : so things are good at home ? billy : yeah . things are -- things are -- things are great . things are great on paper . i mean , some would even say they 're perfect , but , uh ... i do n't know . i 've always been nervous of perfect . amanda : why is that ? billy : you name it . the , uh , frog - like creature under these clothes is always a little bit more comfortable with messy . amanda : messy how ? billy : yeah , i do n't know . all of it . i 've been known to be a little , uh , reckless , maybe unpredictable , wild at times . amanda : [ inhales sharply ] ugh , i hate wild . billy : really ? you do n't find it even a little bit exciting ? amanda : no , there 's no comfort in losing control . billy : yes , that is the point , amanda . amanda : maybe it 's different because i 'm single . you have someone that you love , that you can get wild and crazy with . billy : yeah . that 's true . amanda : and that makes you a lucky man . billy : hmm . victor : i may be retired , but i 'll always make sure that billy boy treats you right . victoria : [ sighs ] i know . it 's one of your reasons for living . victor : uh - huh . victoria : you have nothing to worry about when it comes to billy . victor : after all he has put you through , he should be treating you like a queen . victoria : that is all ancient history . billy has been amazing ever since we got back together . victor : good . victoria : he has . he 's helped me through the whole j.t . ordeal , he 's thrown himself into being a stay - at - home dad , taking care of the kids , cooking for them , taking them to school ... victor : what ? is that what you call a house - husband ? victoria : dad ... victor : well , you 're not even married . victoria : we do n't talk like that . victor : oh . victoria : times have changed . victor : well , excuse me . victoria : we appreciate a man who shares in the responsibilities at home . maybe you ought to try it sometime . victor : yeah , right . victoria : [ giggles ] victor : uh - huh . victoria : billy 's good . actually , he just took a consulting job in chicago . victor : really ? victoria : mm - hmm . victor : i 'm glad to hear that . sweetheart , you may be a powerful c.e.o . but , to me ... you 'll always be my little girl . victoria : thank you . i love you . victor : i love you , too . i adore you . nate : both you and devon told me you were backing off when it came to amanda . so what 's changed ? why suddenly all the questions about her ? elena : i just realized we do n't know a lot about amanda . and i bet you do n't , either . nate : i know plenty , like normal stuff that comes up in conversation . elena : so , has she talked to you about her friends or about her life back in madison ? nate : what are you getting at ? elena : i 'm just saying you 're a good man who wants to believe that amanda was treated unfairly . but you just went through a breakup of your own . nate : abby ? that has nothing to do with amanda . and , by the way , amanda and i are just friends . elena : and i was n't trying to imply it was romantic . i 'm just saying maybe you needed someone to fill the empty emotional space , and maybe that was amanda . nate : i do n't need that from amanda , and you 're way off - base . if you want to dig into the psyche of someone regarding amanda , look at yourself and devon . i do n't know why you guys ca n't let this go . has it occurred to you that devon is looking for an excuse not to ? victoria : billy ? billy ! billy : hey ! how was work ? victoria : hey ! billy : actually , i do n't really care . victoria : what ? billy : no , i mean , i do care , just not tonight because i got a plan . victoria : okay ... billy : yeah , the two of us are going to go to chicago for one night only , okay ? hannah 's gon na watch the kids . every time i go to chicago from here on out , it 's gon na be all work and no play , but not tonight , okay ? we 're gon na go , we 're gon na shake it up , we 're gon na have a little fun . what do you say ? victoria : wow ! what 's gotten into you ? billy : nothing 's gotten into me . i just thought it 'd be fun to go , you know , spend a night together . i 'm gon na be just as busy as you are soon , and we talk about not being ships in the night here , so it 'll be good . come on . victoria : it 's really tempting , it is ... billy : okay , well , then just do n't overthink it . victoria : but i -- you know i would love to , but i -- i can't . not tonight . billy : well , there 's nothing that needs to be done tonight that ca n't be done tomorrow , vick . victoria : yes , but it just makes tomorrow that much harder , you know ? and it 's just not where i am right now . i mean , that 's not where we are . right ? billy : right . & so where exactly are we ? yeah , um , i was half - kidding . victoria : no , you were not . i 'm sorry . billy : be convincing . it 's okay . how about i , uh , go order us some dinner ? victoria : that sounds great . kyle : theo 's mistake nearly cost the company a huge deal , and he 's accusing me of undermining him like we 're two low - level punks pranking each other back in new york . he has no idea what the stakes are . what ? you think i switched his meeting ? come on , summer . summer : [ clears throat ] i have decided to be switzerland when it comes to you and theo . kyle : since when ? summer : since i realized that it does n't do any of us any good for me to be caught in the middle . kyle : oh ! hmm . my dad said something to you , did n't he ? summer : okay , look , kyle , i have to work with both of you in different capacities . so anything that i say is just gon na complicate the situation even more . kyle : well , i am your superior , and i am asking your opinion on another employee . summer : what ? wait , are you serious ? kyle : no , of course not , but i like having you as a sounding board . you and theo are n't dating anymore , and we are just two friends talking . so i do n't see the problem . summer : [ sighs ] kyle : i feel like you have something to say , and i want you to be able to speak your mind , so why do n't you just say it ? summer : [ sighs ] summer : okay , no , i do not think that you tried to sabotage theo . i am sure it was just a simple mix - up , but you really did jump on his mistake , like you were waiting for something to use against him . kyle : he was lucky i was there to save his ass . summer : okay , but he could have and probably would have solved it himself , and , as his boss , i just do n't think that it was the most constructive way to deal with an employee . kyle : oh . it 's hard to be constructive when the employee is all bull and bluster . summer : okay , look , i know that theo can be this way , but he 's also really talented . nobody knows social media better than he does , and , as his boss , i mean , i think it 's kind of your job to bring out the best in him , you know ? kyle : [ sighs ] yeah , i suppose so , but it 's -- it 's hard when it 's a constant battle to cut through all the double - talk and spin . summer : okay , and maybe that will be theo 's downfall , but , until then , you can not let your personal feelings get in the way of how you manage him . and if you let him pull you down , it 's just gon na make you look bad . kyle : so ... your advice is ... ? summer : just do n't let him pull you into his game . okay ? just stay above it . kyle : [ sighs ] [ knocks on door ] jack : come in ! theo : you , uh , wanted to see me ? jack : yeah , close the door . i just want to know that you 're ready for your meeting . theo : 100 % . and , listen , i have no idea how the dates could have gotten mixed up . but there 's no point dwelling on it . jack : that 's right . that 's in the past . you roll with the punches . theo : and that 's the key to success , right ? jack : absolutely , but let 's make something very clear here . we are family , yes . that will never change . but , in this building , all that goes out the window . in this building , you are not my nephew , you are a marketing executive . we all have jobs here that require our full attention . theo : i promise you , i am putting my all into this . jack : i believe you . just know that you 're not getting any special treatment from me . theo : understood . a mistake like today will not happen again . jack : good . because i really want this to work out . nate : i 'm worried about you . by focusing on amanda , you 're allowing devon to stay fixated on something that 's unhealthy . for him and your relationship . you should be encouraging him to let it go . elena : what if he already has , and somebody else believed that amanda was hiding something so they dug up information on her ? nate : what person ? what information ? you know what , never mind . [ scoffs ] i -- i do n't want to know , and i do n't want to be involved . elena : but you are involved , probably more than you know . nate : what does that mean ? elena : look , i know you 're worried about me and devon , but i 'm worried about you . nate : i am just fine , thank you . elena : i need to say this , and i need you to hear me . amanda is a complicate woman with a lot of secrets -- secrets that make me believe she could be dangerous . [ cellphone chimes ] | theo misses an important business meeting and later reschedules the meeting but he thinks kyle is trying to sabatage his job . jack advises summer not to try and mediate disputes between theo and kyle but later she advises kyle to manage the situation with theo better so that theo can be motivated to do great work for jabot . elena reads the file victor gave devon with all the information about amanda and later warns nate that amanda could be dangerous . billy and victoria continue to grow further apart but victoria thinks that she and billy are fine because billy keeps acting like everythimg is fine . billy and amanda 's connection continues to grow but they agree that niether of them wants to haave an affair they just want to be friends . devon tells amanda he is thinking of suing her because of her part in colin 's scheme but amanda tells him he has n't got a case . | <s>[INST] [ previously_on ] billy : i 'm pretty sure i 've lived half my adult life in a fish bowl . amanda : always under someone 's watchful eye , right ? billy : we 're kindred spirits , you realize that . amanda : [ laughs ] victor : find out everything you can about a lawyer called amanda sinclair . elena : she does n't have to be our enemy , devon . she can just ... be . devon : she can . she can be far away from us so that we can just focus on each other . victor : here 's information that my investigators collected . theo : i can take whatever you guys throw at me . the only thing uncle jack will be regretting is not hiring me sooner . theo : now , i 'm thinking we launch a social media campaign centered around makeovers . valentine 's day is right around the corner , so maybe we have people post stories about the one who got away , and we pick a few people and we reunite them with their long - lost loves , after they 've each had a makeover using jabot products , of course . summer : i like it . jack : it 's a fun idea . theo : we could also do a tie - in withe one of those adventure dating shows , like , say a couple goes on a blind date -- bungee - jumping or heli - skiing , and then we give them a jabot makeover before dinner , dancing , whatever . it 'll give us a nice before - and - after contrast to highlight the products . summer : yeah . sporty - not to jabot - hot . jack : not too bad . theo : christmas is next week . maybe we give mrs . claus a makeover . jack : okay , look , these are all fun , out - of - the - box ideas , but i think we have to keep our eye on the big picture -- sure things , home - runs , like .. partnering with circe brands ? theo : oh , yeah , right . i am all over circe . jack : good , because a partnership with them is the kind of high - stakes deal that generates real revenue . theo : got it . i 'm cultivating a relationship with the c.e.o . right now , i 'm the seduction phase , laying the groundwork , but i will get down to brass tacks soon . jack : just closer the deal , okay ? summer gave this to you as your first big test , and it reflects on her , as well . theo : well , consider it closed . i have a meeting with tim tomorrow . kyle : oh . you mean today . theo : what ? kyle : you had a meeting scheduled with tim today , about an hour ago , and you missed it . victoria : would you push my 10 : 00 back an hour ? and send me the latest blueprints on the brooklyn development . okay , thanks . oh !

i mean ... billy : am i ? i am . yeah , it feels good to be back in the game and not at the family company . i think is gon na be good for me . victoria : i think so , too . billy : i will miss you when i 'm on the road , of course ... victoria : oh ! billy : ... but i 'll think about you every minute i 'm gone . victoria : well , i think that 's gon na make coming home even more special . i 'm so happy for you . billy : she means it . god , she 's so beautiful . how about we go upstairs and celebrate a little bit ?

amanda : you have no grounds for a suit . devon : i have proof that i was defrauded . amanda : by colin atkinson , not me . i 've told you over and over again , all i ever wanted was for the truth to come out . devon : well , i want the same thing . i want the whole truth , and i do n't think that it has yet . amanda : what are you implying ? devon : that as long as colin is on the run , we wo n't get any answers to what really happened until he 's found . amanda : i 'm sure that the feds are doing everything they can to find him . devon : oh , and that 's enough for you ? you 're fine with them handling it ? you do n't want to help out at all ? amanda : [ scoffs ] i 'm not -- i 'm not a detective , and i do n't believe in vigilante justice . so i do n't know what i could possibly do . devon : i -- i 'm sure you could figure something out . i bet you have some skills or some information that could help out . amanda : you would lose that bet . devon : okay . well , you know what , amanda , maybe you do n't care at all about finding out the truth . maybe all you care about is your perfect track record as an attorney staying intact . amanda : i 've earned my flawless record . devon : i 'm sure you have . though all i have to go on is your word . and it 's not like i 'm gon na spend my time digging through your records to see if you 're actually telling the truth , but maybe i should because that 'd be a good way to find out how honest you 've been . amanda : that would be a complete waste of your time . devon : yeah . i am pretty busy , anyway . and i 'm more concerned , anyway , about how , uh -- how you being involved in this whole will situation may bother potential clients who might want to hire you . amanda : [ scoffs ] i 'm sorry . are you -- are you threatening me ? devon : i do n't think so . i 'm just pointing out some inconsistencies about how someone as skilled as you with a perfect track record could get tricked and involved in a massive scam just because you failed to do some basic due diligence . amanda : everyone makes mistakes . devon : not someone like you , though , right ? at least not the person that you 've presented to us . none of this adds up , really . amanda : i am disgusted that i played a small part in what happened with your inheritance , but i would like to put it behind me and move on . i 'm assuming that you 're not gon na let that happen , are you ? devon : i 'm not gon na put anything behind me or move on until i get answers , and i still have the resources to get those answers , no matter how well - hidden they may be . amanda : i usually charge for legal advice , but i 'm gon na give you a freebie . i 'm not liable for what happened to you . you decided to give away your money . i was just doing my job . devon : okay , well , your job 's done , so why are you still in town ? amanda : maybe i like it here . devon : sure . amanda : and , you know , your little legal matter , it has n't affected my ability to land clients . see , nate , he seems very happy with the work that i 've done for him . phyllis has asked me to do some work for her , and i 'm actually on my way to a meeting right now , so i 'm gon na assume that we are done here . elena : hey ! nate : hey . elena : busy morning , huh ? nate : patient after patient . by the way , i discharged the woman you talked about the other day . elena : ugh . the one that i almost misdiagnosed ? i 'm still kicking myself for being distracted . nate : she is doing fine and at home now . elena : thank you for that . and thank you for talking me down the other day . you really are a good friend . nate : i know how much you 're dealing with . devon being taken advantage of , all the loss he 's endured , amanda and hilary ... elena : [ chuckles ] yeah , when you lay it out like that , i 'm surprised we 're both still standing . nate : but you are . i admire how you two are working through it . elena : we 're trying . nate : i think acknowledging amanda was a victim , too , can take some of the pressure off . i hope you guys move on . elena : but what if she was n't ? nate : what if she was n't what ? elena : the victim . what if you 're the one who 's been wrong about amanda this whole time ? victoria : the project is on schedule , and it 's under budget . yes , so we 're good to go . okay , we 'll talk soon . dad ! hi ! victor : well ... victoria : are you okay ? victor : hi , sweetheart . yes ! victoria : oh ! victor : well , it sounds as if i made the right decision , putting you in charge . victor : well , good job to you , too . you know , it takes skill to turn a compliment about me into an opportunity to pay yourself on the back for having good judgment . victor : my baby ... victoria : [ giggles ] victor : you 're doing a hell of a job , you really are . victoria : thank you . victor : yep . victoria : so , are you just stopping by ? victor : well , i had an appointment around the corner , so i thought i 'd stop by , you know , but if you 're busy ... victoria : no , of course not . victor : you sure ? victoria : i always have time for you , yes . victor : okay . victoria : how are you doing ? victor : i 'm doing good , you know , actually doing very well . i went sailing with my crew . over the weekend , we won a race . victoria : oh , great ! victor : yeah . in fact , i 'm gon na buy a bigger yacht , a 40-footer . average speed , 30 knots , you know ? yeah . victoria : um ... daddy . victor : uh - huh . victoria : you know , it 's okay to say that you miss it here . victor : hmm . is it that obvious ? [ exhales sharply ] i poured my heart and soul into this place . most of my adult life , you know ? victoria : i know . victor : but that does not mean that i regret stepping back . it was the right time , and , uh , i made the right decision , you know ? not gon na mount a comeback . victoria : well ... that 's good to hear . listen , if you want me to fill you in on anything ... victor : no , no , no . victoria : does n't matter , whatever it is ... victor : no . no , no . i 'm not gon na look over your shoulder . victoria : well , you are showing a lot of restraint , and i appreciate that . victor : yeah . does this place make you as happy as it made me ? victoria : [ sighs ] yes . i 'm living my dream . victor : so , how does all that sit with billy boy ? everything all right ? victoria : yes , it is ! we 're happy . we could n't be happier . wow ! nate : i ca n't believe we 're back to square one , again . the last time we spoke , you said you understood how unfair it was to blame amanda for how she looks . elena : i know , i did , but hear me out . nate : i 've already heard you . you 're stuck on this to the point of becoming obsessed . elena : [ sighs ] okay . i 'll admit it , it 's been a struggle for me dealing with hilary . i meant amanda . both of them . honestly , they 're both intertwined in my head . okay , look , it was hard enough for me to deal with the memory of devon 's wife . it 's like she was everywhere -- in his mind , pictures all over the penthouse , and then devon was finally getting closure , and we were both moving on , and now ... amanda . and it 's shocking for me to see her every day , so i can only imagine how hard it is for devon . look , i know your ta had an impact on him . and thank you so much for being there for him , but ... it did n't fix everything . devon still has questions about ... amanda , and ... i do , too . and so should you . nate : where is this all coming from ? billy : hey . you having some coffee . amanda : yes , um , this is a coffeehouse . billy : yeah . it is . i thought it 'd be weird to not say hi . amanda : so weird . sit down . amanda : so , how are you doing ? billy : how am i doing ? i 'm good . i 'm good . i got a new consulting job . amanda : oh , wow ! well ... billy : yeah . amanda : congratulations . billy : thank you very much . it 's my first job since leaving my family company . i kind of feel like a kid that graduated middle school that 's trying to get all buff during the summer , getting ready for high school , you know ? amanda : well , except you 're a grown man . billy : yeah . amanda : and do n't take this the wrong way , but you are handsome , you are successful , and you are moderately charming , so i think it 's probably okay for you to just ... be yourself . billy : yes , but you 've only met my representative . amanda : oh , true . billy : the real me is a frog - like creature covered in warts . amanda : [ giggles ] okay , tmi , i do not need to see your warts . we are not those kinds of friends . billy : oh , are we friends now ? amanda : well , i think a certain number of conversations probably meets the definition . billy : okay . i 'll go with that . amanda : we also have a great deal in common , so ... billy : we -- we do . we do . we have figured that one out . amanda : i spend the whole day acting like i am unbreakable and untouchable , and i 'm exhausted . billy : it 's hard to pretend to be someone that you 're not to everyone around you . amanda : [ sighs ] billy : you know , if you want to share any of these mistakes or anything , i guarantee you that i will match you blow for blow . amanda : [ chuckles ] no , we are not those kinds of friends . yet . kyle : really ? you 're gon na play the victim ? theo : you did n't answer my question . i know that meeting was scheduled for tomorrow . i confirmed it with tim 's assistant myself . kyle : well , why do n't we call his assistant and see if that 's true . theo : okay , calling to check up on me will make us both look like fumbling idiots . the situation is resolved , and you are the c.e.o . of a major company . act like it . kyle : you ca n't admit you made a mistake , and i cleaned up your mess . you should be thanking me . theo : that 's not gon na happen . i 'm gon na close this deal , and then you can thank me . kyle : right . this deal 's gon na be epic ! it 's all about relationships . theo : hilarious . kyle : i hope it works out . i really do . because , like you said , i 'm in charge . if i was going to sabotage you , do you really think i 'd do it at the expense of the company i run ? you screwed up all on your own , cuz . you did n't need any help from me . summer : oh , my gosh , it is exhausting having to constantly be the referee between kyle and theo . jack : i can imagine . look , that is not your job . theo reports to you . your job is to get him to his a - game . summer : i know . no , i know , it 's just so much easier said than done . jack : i realize it 's a complex dynamic . this whole corporate structure is new to theo . summer : yeah , he 's trying really hard to fit in . jack : yeah , he 's doing the same thing with the family , and kyle is n't making it easy for him on either front . and i realize it is n't easy for kyle to take on his responsibilities as co - c.e.o . with theo around . summer : oh , my gosh , this whole thing is just a mess . do you really think it can work itself out ? jack : i think this is an opportunity for kyle to find his management style in dealing with a complex situation . summer : so you mean like a test ? eco mpetition `` the young and the restless `` will continue . jack : not so much a test as an opportunity . look , i have all the faith in the world in kyle . i would n't have kept him on as co - c.e.o . if i didn't . this is an opportunity to learn . i know he has issues with theo . i also know he is going to have the company 's best interest at heart . eventually , that will be the priority . summer : and what about theo ? jack : theo 's a hardworking , ambitious man . they 're both very capable . summer : so you 're saying that i do n't need to mediate . jack : no , uh , given your history , i think you 're a little too close to the situation . summer : okay , i just want you to know that i 've been completely professional with all of this . jack : no , no , i -- i do n't doubt that for a second . i 'm just saying , in this particular situation , take a step back . summer : okay , i mean , yeah , it 's -- it 's better for me , too . i do n't need all that added stress , anyway . jack : right ? summer : yeah . jack : so a hands - off approach is best for everyone . we 're agreed ? summer : yep . thank you . jack : thank you . summer : hey , theo , um , do you want to go over what we discussed in the meeting ? theo : um , could we do it a little later ? i need to focus on this circe thing . summer : yeah , sure . kyle : can you believe he accused me of sabotaging him ? summer : okay , we need to talk . come on , let 's get out of here . amanda : can i ask you a question , if you 're up for it ? billy : shoot . amanda : are you looking to have an affair ? billy : pardon me ? uh , no . no , no , i 'm , uh -- why would you ask me that ? amanda : well , you are a man in a committed relationship , and you keep striking up conversations with me . billy : so men and women ca n't be friends ? i mean , have you not seen the movie `` when harry met sally ? `` i think it kind of settled that debate . amanda : i think the whole point of that movie is that they were more than friends . billy : oh , so you 're gon na cross - examine my knowledge of ' 80s rom - coms now ? amanda : oh , no , i am cross - examining you . why is it every time i see you , you 're alone , and what is with this vibe between us ? billy : oh , what `` vibe `` between us ? amanda : [ scoffs ] this banter ? you trying to charm me to ... tell you more about myself , even though you will not admit that that is what you are doing ... come on , every -- every man that has ever chatted me up like this , they were just , you know , working up the nerve to ask me out . billy : [ sighs ] well , i do have a natural flirtiness that spills out of me . amanda : oh ! it just spills out . billy : yes , and you are the one that said i am moderately charming . no , i am not trying to sleep with you . amanda : okay . mm - hmm . billy : okay . are you trying to sleep with me ? amanda : no , i am not . billy : okay . well , good on you for just putting it out there like that . amanda : yeah , you know , i thought we should just get it out of the way . billy : yeah , clearly . amanda : so things are good at home ? billy : yeah . things are -- things are -- things are great . things are great on paper . i mean , some would even say they 're perfect , but , uh ... i do n't know . i 've always been nervous of perfect . amanda : why is that ? billy : you name it . the , uh , frog - like creature under these clothes is always a little bit more comfortable with messy . amanda : messy how ? billy : yeah , i do n't know . all of it . i 've been known to be a little , uh , reckless , maybe unpredictable , wild at times . amanda : [ inhales sharply ] ugh , i hate wild . billy : really ? you do n't find it even a little bit exciting ? amanda : no , there 's no comfort in losing control . billy : yes , that is the point , amanda . amanda : maybe it 's different because i 'm single . you have someone that you love , that you can get wild and crazy with . billy : yeah . that 's true . amanda : and that makes you a lucky man . billy : hmm . victor : i may be retired , but i 'll always make sure that billy boy treats you right . victoria : [ sighs ] i know . it 's one of your reasons for living . victor : uh - huh . victoria : you have nothing to worry about when it comes to billy . victor : after all he has put you through , he should be treating you like a queen . victoria : that is all ancient history . billy has been amazing ever since we got back together . victor : good . victoria : he has . he 's helped me through the whole j.t . ordeal , he 's thrown himself into being a stay - at - home dad , taking care of the kids , cooking for them , taking them to school ... victor : what ? is that what you call a house - husband ? victoria : dad ... victor : well , you 're not even married . victoria : we do n't talk like that . victor : oh . victoria : times have changed . victor : well , excuse me . victoria : we appreciate a man who shares in the responsibilities at home . maybe you ought to try it sometime . victor : yeah , right . victoria : [ giggles ] victor : uh - huh . victoria : billy 's good . actually , he just took a consulting job in chicago . victor : really ? victoria : mm - hmm . victor : i 'm glad to hear that . sweetheart , you may be a powerful c.e.o . but , to me ... you 'll always be my little girl . victoria : thank you . i love you . victor : i love you , too . i adore you . nate : both you and devon told me you were backing off when it came to amanda . so what 's changed ? why suddenly all the questions about her ? elena : i just realized we do n't know a lot about amanda . and i bet you do n't , either . nate : i know plenty , like normal stuff that comes up in conversation . elena : so , has she talked to you about her friends or about her life back in madison ? nate : what are you getting at ? elena : i 'm just saying you 're a good man who wants to believe that amanda was treated unfairly . but you just went through a breakup of your own . nate : abby ? that has nothing to do with amanda . and , by the way , amanda and i are just friends . elena : and i was n't trying to imply it was romantic . i 'm just saying maybe you needed someone to fill the empty emotional space , and maybe that was amanda . nate : i do n't need that from amanda , and you 're way off - base . if you want to dig into the psyche of someone regarding amanda , look at yourself and devon . i do n't know why you guys ca n't let this go . has it occurred to you that devon is looking for an excuse not to ? victoria : billy ? billy ! billy : hey ! how was work ? victoria : hey ! billy : actually , i do n't really care . victoria : what ? billy : no , i mean , i do care , just not tonight because i got a plan . victoria : okay ... billy : yeah , the two of us are going to go to chicago for one night only , okay ? hannah 's gon na watch the kids . every time i go to chicago from here on out , it 's gon na be all work and no play , but not tonight , okay ? we 're gon na go , we 're gon na shake it up , we 're gon na have a little fun . what do you say ? victoria : wow ! what 's gotten into you ? billy : nothing 's gotten into me . i just thought it 'd be fun to go , you know , spend a night together . i 'm gon na be just as busy as you are soon , and we talk about not being ships in the night here , so it 'll be good . come on . victoria : it 's really tempting , it is ... billy : okay , well , then just do n't overthink it . victoria : but i -- you know i would love to , but i -- i can't . not tonight . billy : well , there 's nothing that needs to be done tonight that ca n't be done tomorrow , vick . victoria : yes , but it just makes tomorrow that much harder , you know ? and it 's just not where i am right now . i mean , that 's not where we are . right ? billy : right . & so where exactly are we ? yeah , um , i was half - kidding . victoria : no , you were not . i 'm sorry . billy : be convincing . it 's okay . how about i , uh , go order us some dinner ? victoria : that sounds great . kyle : theo 's mistake nearly cost the company a huge deal , and he 's accusing me of undermining him like we 're two low - level punks pranking each other back in new york . he has no idea what the stakes are . what ? you think i switched his meeting ? come on , summer . summer : [ clears throat ] i have decided to be switzerland when it comes to you and theo . kyle : since when ? summer : since i realized that it does n't do any of us any good for me to be caught in the middle . kyle : oh ! hmm . my dad said something to you , did n't he ? summer : okay , look , kyle , i have to work with both of you in different capacities . so anything that i say is just gon na complicate the situation even more . kyle : well , i am your superior , and i am asking your opinion on another employee . summer : what ? wait , are you serious ? kyle : no , of course not , but i like having you as a sounding board . you and theo are n't dating anymore , and we are just two friends talking . so i do n't see the problem . summer : [ sighs ] kyle : i feel like you have something to say , and i want you to be able to speak your mind , so why do n't you just say it ? summer : [ sighs ] summer : okay , no , i do not think that you tried to sabotage theo . i am sure it was just a simple mix - up , but you really did jump on his mistake , like you were waiting for something to use against him . kyle : he was lucky i was there to save his ass . summer : okay , but he could have and probably would have solved it himself , and , as his boss , i just do n't think that it was the most constructive way to deal with an employee . kyle : oh . it 's hard to be constructive when the employee is all bull and bluster . summer : okay , look , i know that theo can be this way , but he 's also really talented . nobody knows social media better than he does , and , as his boss , i mean , i think it 's kind of your job to bring out the best in him , you know ? kyle : [ sighs ] yeah , i suppose so , but it 's -- it 's hard when it 's a constant battle to cut through all the double - talk and spin . summer : okay , and maybe that will be theo 's downfall , but , until then , you can not let your personal feelings get in the way of how you manage him . and if you let him pull you down , it 's just gon na make you look bad . kyle : so ... your advice is ... ? summer : just do n't let him pull you into his game . okay ? just stay above it . kyle : [ sighs ] [ knocks on door ] jack : come in ! theo : you , uh , wanted to see me ? jack : yeah , close the door . i just want to know that you 're ready for your meeting . theo : 100 % . and , listen , i have no idea how the dates could have gotten mixed up . but there 's no point dwelling on it . jack : that 's right . that 's in the past . you roll with the punches . theo : and that 's the key to success , right ? jack : absolutely , but let 's make something very clear here . we are family , yes . that will never change . but , in this building , all that goes out the window . in this building , you are not my nephew , you are a marketing executive . we all have jobs here that require our full attention . theo : i promise you , i am putting my all into this . jack : i believe you . just know that you 're not getting any special treatment from me . theo : understood . a mistake like today will not happen again . jack : good . because i really want this to work out . nate : i 'm worried about you . by focusing on amanda , you 're allowing devon to stay fixated on something that 's unhealthy . for him and your relationship . you should be encouraging him to let it go . elena : what if he already has , and somebody else believed that amanda was hiding something so they dug up information on her ? nate : what person ? what information ? you know what , never mind . [ scoffs ] i -- i do n't want to know , and i do n't want to be involved . elena : but you are involved , probably more than you know . nate : what does that mean ? elena : look , i know you 're worried about me and devon , but i 'm worried about you . nate : i am just fine , thank you . elena : i need to say this , and i need you to hear me . amanda is a complicate woman with a lot of secrets -- secrets that make me believe she could be dangerous . [ cellphone chimes ]Summarize.[/INST]theo misses an important business meeting and later reschedules the meeting but he thinks kyle is trying to sabatage his job . jack advises summer not to try and mediate disputes between theo and kyle but later she advises kyle to manage the situation with theo better so that theo can be motivated to do great work for jabot . elena reads the file victor gave devon with all the information about amanda and later warns nate that amanda could be dangerous . billy and victoria continue to grow further apart but victoria thinks that she and billy are fine because billy keeps acting like everythimg is fine . billy and amanda 's connection continues to grow but they agree that niether of them wants to haave an affair they just want to be friends . devon tells amanda he is thinking of suing her because of her part in colin 's scheme but amanda tells him he has n't got a case .</s> | 18,823 |

[ music plays ] noah : well , it sounds nice , but i have the feeling that your daughter does n't have the ability to appreciate the simpler things in life like you do . yeah , she could never be happy with what i could afford to give her .

'cause usually you guys just talk business as if i 'm not here , unless -- unless it 's confidential . avery : is it ? leslie : um ... no . no . it will be public record soon , so . avery : go on . leslie : the judge is not allowing a change of venue for austin 's trial . he 'll be tried here in genoa city . dylan : well , that 's -- that 's good . leslie : yeah . well , given christine 's relationship with the victim , she 'll have to recuse herself . dylan : who 's gon na handle the case for the prosecution ? leslie : one of her junior adas . dylan : mm , that 's just great . a guy shoots a cop , and some kid out of law school is gon na try to convict him . avery : okay . there are plenty of good lawyer in the da 's office . dylan : yeah , but they 're not christine . she 's invested in the case . she would have done everything in her power to send austin to prison . now it 's gon na be easier for him to get a pass . stitch : whatever you 've heard about me -- barton : insightful , attentive , intuitive -- those are the things i 've heard about you . so , i ask you , is it true ? stitch : [ chuckles ] who said that ? barton : your direct supervisors , nursing staff , other residents ... me . stitch : yeah . i hope it 's true . [ chuckles ] barton : you looked worried there for a minute . anything i should know ? stitch : i might have swiped a power bar or two from the residents ' lounge . [ chuckles ] honestly , uh ... being a doctor means the world to me . there was a time when i did n't think it would happen , but making a person on a good day , saving a life on a great one -- i ca n't imagine doing anything else with my life . barton : good . how 'd you like to be chief resident ? stitch : [ scoffs ] kelly : jack , i have lost so much , but so has ben . to shred everything that he 's done , everything that he 's made of his life -- jack : all based on lies . i 'm not trying to hurt your brother . i 'm not passing judgment , handing out punishment . victoria has been a part of my family life for years , first as my stepdaughter , then as my sister - in - law . how can i know and not tell her ? kelly : ben loves victoria . she has given him a kind of peace that has been missing in his life -- happiness and hope and someone to care for . what about jenna and max ? i mean , they were safe with him . jack : as soon as jenna found out the truth , she left him -- moved halfway across the world . should n't victoria be allowed to make the same decision ? [ cell phone rings ] jack : trace , i know . i 'm running a little late . traci : jack , come home already ! abby : let 's get this party started ! traci : yeah ! this is n't just a normal family dinner . come on ! hurry up ! jack : of course . i 'm on my way . we have to get to dinner . we 're late . kelly : i have to know what you 're gon na do , jack . jack : i do n't know . right now , i 'm gon na go have dinner . kelly : and after that ? jack : after that , i do n't know . i do n't know what to do with any of this information . i do know one thing -- it changes everything . billy : yes . party started . i hear you , abby . i 'm coming . what did i just say ? would you stop talking ? thank you . bye . hey , guess what . chelsea : you have to leave . billy : abbott family dinner -- not that i would n't rather stay here . chelsea : just make sure you take both your socks this time . billy : if i left one behind , could i come back and get it later -- maybe bring you some dessert ? chelsea : nah , you can ply me with sweets some other time . billy : i look forward to it . [ sighs ] chelsea : [ sighs ] billy : oh . wait a second . do you want me to wait until this guy 's gone ? you know , i 'll just call abby . chelsea : no , no . no , no . it 's fine . besides , abby will kill you . billy : that i can take . you 're sure you 're cool with him being here ? chelsea : i 'm good . i promise . and , by the way , i 'm not delusional . that thing about adam -- that was just a weird moment of me forgetting about the past few months . trust me -- i know adam 's never coming home . chelsea : did you find anything ? wiring is solid . nothing out of the ordinary . we 're still checking our other units . if we find a glitch , i 'll need to follow up here . chelsea : okay , sure . just make sure you knock next time . do n't use the key and just come in . yeah , sorry about that . like i said -- chelsea : the super . i know . my apologies again if i blew your evening . you changed things up since i was here -- moved stuff around . chelsea : yeah . sometimes change is good . austin : [ sighs ] summer : and somehow we still have n't changed for dinner . austin : well , we 're still on our honeymoon . i 'm pretty sure that clothes are forbidden . we 're only allowed swimwear , a pool , and a bed . summer : mm . yeah -- plus going to my dad 's house for dinner . austin : that 's a mood - killer . summer : i 'm sorry . okay ? we 're gon na have a real honeymoon someday , i promise . austin : yeah , maybe backpack through costa rica , hike the inca trail . summer : backpacking and hiking ? austin : that does n't sound fun ? summer : it just sounds ... dirty . i 'm sorry to sound like abby , but i would like to wash my hair more than once a week , you know ? you 're an adventure guy ? austin : you 're a hotel girl ? summer : look at how much we 're learning about each other . we 're on our own adventure with no backpacks needed . austin : what ? come on . you were the girl who was gon na run off to canada with me . summer : yeah , and i 'm pretty sure that they have showers there . austin : and i 'm pretty sure that i could join you . summer : mm . and , somehow , our different versions of a honeymoon do n't seem to matter anymore . austin : hmm . good news , bad news , 'cause it does n't really matter . i 'm gon na be in prison anyway . summer : do n't . stop . do n't say that . leslie is fighting for you , and she 's gon na make sure that everyone understands why you did what you did . austin : what if she ca n't ? or what if they do n't care and they just lock me up anyway ? summer : then i 'll wait for you . and we can compromise by hiking in between 5-star hotels . austin : summer , you have a life . summer : yeah , and it 's with you . okay ? when you find your soul mate , that 's all that matters . okay ? austin : yeah . abby : i 've arranged one family dinner , and , suddenly , no one can tell time , once again abandoned by men . i 'm sorry . i did n't mean you . i meant me . and it 's not like i 'm pining . i mean ... do n't listen to me about anything . traci : abby , it 's gon na be all right . i know you 're scared . but there 's going to be another man -- probably a few . some of them will make you laugh . some of them will make you crazy . [ both chuckle ] traci : and one of them will be the one . abby : but we agreed -- men are n't a necessity . traci : no ! of course they 're not a necessity , but they 're certainly nice to have around , you know ? someone to lean against on the sofa when you 're watching a movie , somebody who brings you an iced tea before you even know that you 're thirsty . abby : aunt traci ... traci : abby , you 're going to find a man who fits , and you 'll know it because it will feel right , just like you knew when things were not right with tyler . abby : i think you 're giving me too much credit . i mean , i thought tyler was the perfect guy for me , and i walked away . so , i either screwed up leaving him or picking him at all . how can i be trusted with any romantic decisions ? traci : no . no . just because a relationship ended does n't mean you screwed it up . it means it ended . you know , i hate that , when they say that a marriage failed . it just does n't work anymore , you know ? it does n't mean that it was n't good and real while it lasted . abby , you 're so much stronger now and so much more mature . you 're a wonderful , wonderful young lady -- even more wonderful than when you met tyler . abby : but i was happy . and i want to be happy again . traci : you will be , i promise . abby : and you will , too . traci : oh , sweetie . [ doorbell rings ] abby : ohh . how formal -- ringing the doorbell . it 's kind of cute . traci : [ laughs ] abby : [ sighs ] abby : hi . my uncle jack 's not here . i 'll tell him you stopped by . jack : i was getting the mail . please , kelly , come in to my home . traci : kelly , hello . it 's so great to see you . i 'm so glad you could join us . kelly : thank you . thank you so much . so -- so am i . abby : aunt traci , can we talk about the canapés , please ? traci : um ... abby : you invited her ? traci : um ... abby : kelly should n't be here . billy 's coming . traci : billy is a grown man , and so is jack . honey , i did n't invite her , but jack can have anyone he wants to to dinner . abby : family dinner , `` family `` being the key word . traci : okay . maybe your uncle jack is making a statement , then , about who he considers to be family . now , you -- behave yourself . i mean it . um , can i get you anything to drink ? kelly : oh , uh , water would be fine . thank you . everything looks lovely . traci : oh , thank you . just wait till you taste dinner . mrs. martinez is an absolute genius . so , you guys just relax . abby and i will take care of all of the details . jack : thanks , trace . traci : okay . kelly : [ sighs ] i do n't know -- i do n't know how you expect me to act normal when my brother 's future is at risk . jack : i 'm a little more concerned that my sister - in - law 's safety has been at risk all this time . kelly : i told you that you would n't be able to deal with it , but you begged me to trust you . jack : yeah , i did . but the news you told me was a little more than i expected , and i do n't have any answers right now -- no easy answers . i 'm sorry . [ door opens ] kelly : if that 's billy -- jack : ohh . i wish it were . kelly : she needs your support , jack . jack : hey , there ! look at you ! you 've been out by the pool , have n't you ? summer : hello . jack : hi . summer : hi . austin : it 's pretty great at the athletic club . it 's nice to see you again , sir . jack : i did n't realize you 'd be joining us . summer : it 's a family dinner , and traci invited me and my husband . abby : of course she did . traci : austin , we 're so glad that you could come , and i know that there are kind of a lot of abbotts all in one place , but do n't worry -- you 'll get used to us . [ chuckles ] austin : maybe i should n't be here . i could just go -- summer : uh , dad , aunt traci , abby , kelly , thank you for tonight -- inviting me and my husband to dinner . you know , it 's kind of funny . austin 's kind of replaced me as the newest member of the abbott family , and i 'm just really glad that he could be here to see why i love you guys so much . avery : there 's no way stitch would sign off on you getting this upset . dylan : all right . i 'm calm now . avery : no , you 're not . dylan : all i 'm saying is it just seems like everyone wants to give this austin kid a free pass for what he did . i get it -- he misses his mom . you know what ? we all miss somebody . we do n't shoot the chief of police because of it . leslie : it was n't intentional . dylan : so , the bullets just hopped in the gun themselves ? does n't that matter ? leslie : intent matters . state of mind matters , as does remorse . dylan : so , if someone can shoot the chief of police and say , `` hey , my bad , `` and you 're gon na try to give him a free pass ? is that what you 're saying ? leslie : okay . for the record , i took this case because my partner asked me to , but i guess that 's beside the point . everyone has right to legal counsel . i mean , you know how the world works , and for you to pretend you do n't , i really do n't buy it . you have a personal stake in this . i totally get that . but i really think that it 's time for you to stop attacking me for being good at what i do . avery : okay . i understand , dylan , why you 're upset , and you see austin behind bars as justice . but the law makes allowances that you might not be willing to make -- for me , for paul . and leslie is just doing her job . dylan : you know what ? i guess it 's just easy to hide behind the whole lawyer thing , like how you knew ian was n't my father and did n't tell a soul until paul almost died . leslie : that fell under attorney - client privilege . avery : which she broke for paul 's sake . she put her entire career on the line . dylan : yeah , just like you when nikki told you i was her son . you know , i guess attorneys get to keep all the secrets , no matter what else everyone else deserves to know . leslie : you know what ? i wanted to give you an update , and now i have , so ... avery : thank you . leslie : you know , i 'm not about to stop working for a client because it offends you . now that we know where each other stands , i mean , we do n't need to do this again . dylan : [ sighs ] i 'm sorry . avery : [ sighs ] you need to let the law take care of austin and let me take care of you and stop blaming leslie for the nature of defense law . it 's not fair , especially -- i did ask her to take on this case . dylan : i 'm not mad at leslie , and i 'm not mad at you . i 'm just mad at myself . traci : okay , austin . we have some with meat and some without , but do n't worry -- as soon as we know what they are , we 'll have all your favorite foods . summer : yes , that 's next on the list of things i have to ask him -- his favorite foods . austin : yeah , right after favorite color . summer : yes , and flower . austin : wow . summer : [ laughs ] yes . uh , do you want a tour of the house ? austin : uh , yeah . that 'd be great . summer : okay . traci : that 's a great idea , summer . do n't forget the pool and the garden . summer : okay . traci : okay . summer : we can do this , okay ? austin : yeah . jack : you 're a terrific aunt . you know that ? traci : every member of this family has made their mistakes . i think that we 're the last who should judge so harshly . jack : can i still judge steve harshly for not working harder at keeping your marriage together ? traci : no ! we are not gon na be talking about that this evening , either . instead , we are going to be cheerful and welcoming , and we want to make sure that kelly and austin know we 're so happy that you 've joined us . and if that was too subtle , be nice to your son - in - law . abby : does he still count as a son - in - law if he goes to prison ? kelly : well , if he owns what he did , admits it , and regrets it , goes on to make a good life as a good person , then i do n't think it 's fair to judge him anymore . abby : we 're not talking jaywalker . we 're talking about a would - be killer . traci : um ... listen , i think i could use another cocktail . kelly : oh , i think i 'll join you . traci : please . right this way . kelly : thank you . abby : i guess we could use another place setting . jack : abby ... [ sighs ] billy : hey . sorry i 'm late . what did i miss ? jack : [ sighs ] you know your wife . that handkerchief is doing the trick . it should remind her of your original wedding anniversary , just like you said . and i say that kills the mood for her and billy abbott . avery : dylan , please do n't go backwards . please do n't blame yourself for what happened to paul . you went to save me , and you saved paul 's life . dylan : i do n't want to go backwards . look , i 'm just saying that [ sighs ] i did n't turn out to be an architect like i wanted or someone who changes the world , like i 'd hoped when i joined the military . you know , nothing is what i thought it would be , least of all me . but i 've been through so much . and you are the only constant in my life . leslie : congratulations . stitch : i 'm not chief resident yet , so ... leslie : uh , well , you know what they say -- it 's an honor to even be nominated . barton : well , it 's also better to get the job . well , i like your chances . coffee to celebrate . i 'll get the round . leslie : do n't bother dylan just now . he 's got a lot going on . stitch : what happened ? is he okay ? leslie : oh , he 's fine and healthy and furious with me for keeping something from him . you know , but i guess that 's how secrets work . normally , the last to know is very angry . kelly : excuse me . i 'll just go find jack . abby : kelly , wait . uh , i wanted to ask you a question . so , wow -- stitch is your brother . kelly : is that a question ? abby : no , but it 's not the kind of thing people usually lie about . so , why did you ? why the big secret ? billy : come on , jack . how bad can one dinner be ? jack : it 's not dinner , billy . billy : okay . so , what 's wrong ? jack : i got some news -- nothing i ever expected . billy : right . so , we 'll deal with it together . tell me what you heard . | at the newman home , traci and abby prepare for a family dinner . summer and austin have had a swim at the rooftop pool . summer reminds him that they are really married . abby and traci try to figure out who to sit next to whom . the maintenance man walks over to the sofa and startles chelsea as she looks up . ben finds dylan cleaning tables at crimson lights and reads him the riot act for working after he had major surgery . avery also walks in and is upset to see dylan working . kelly tells jack that ben is a murderer and proceeds to tell him the whole story . when summer mentions children , austin gets the wrong idea and thinks that she is already pregnant , but she assures him that she is n't . when jack hears the rest of the story about ben being a murderer , he wants to tell billy , but kelly begs him not to . | <s>[INST] abby : ohh ! beautiful ! [ gasps ] you have the touch . that 's fabulous . traci : oh , thank you . yes . i can order a floral arrangement like a pro . [ both laugh ] abby : no , i mean it . you always have a way of making things look beautiful and welcoming . it was one of those things that i was so used to as a kid , i did n't even notice . but now , seeing you in action -- you have a gift . traci : well , thank you , sweetie . i want tonight to be special . i want our family to remember that we are always there for each other , no matter what . abby : no matter what and no matter who ? summer : here . austin : oh , thank you . summer : so , do you think we scandalized anyone ? austin : no one really around to scandalize , but , uh , we could go back in the pool and try it all over again . summer : no , no . we do n't have time . we just have enough time to get ready for dinner . austin : or we could skip dinner -- summer : okay , it 's gon na be painless , i swear . okay ? we 're just gon na sit around the table , talk about how great the food is , and then we 're gon na go home . it 's done . boom . over . my aunt traci is , like , the nicest person ever , and my cousin abby , she -- austin : the one who ca n't stand me ? summer : she can talk enough for everyone . i mean , just us showing up together -- it 's gon na prove to them that we 're a real couple , okay ? austin : which they do n't want us to be . summer : they 're trying -- okay ? -- or else they would n't have invited us . okay ? the first time that i sat around that table was the first time that i felt like i was part of the abbott family . i think my only job was to get orange juice , and i nailed it . austin : i do n't think i 'm gon na be feeling like part of the abbott family anytime soon . summer : we 're married , okay ? like , `` vows and rings and eternal love `` marriage . and the abbotts are officially now your family , too . so , no , you 're not gon na feel like part of the group right away , but maybe by the time we have our first baby , you will . austin : oh . [ chuckles ] baby ? abby : how formal are we going for with the seating ? couples across the table instead of side by side ? huh ? not that i want summer and austin even in the same room . could we put him in the pool house ? would that be rude ? traci : stop . we are not going to split those kids up , at the table or anyplace else , although it might be a good idea to put austin by billy and not jack . abby : well , i wish i could put victoria next to billy . traci : he wishes the same thing . but billy is who he is and does what he does , and right now , he 's having to learn to live with the results . chelsea : oh , my god ! stitch : seriously ? this is how you recover from major surgery ? dylan : what are you , a doctor ? stitch : [ chuckles ] i 'm not kidding , man . you should n't be here . dylan : do n't worry . i 'm gon na take it easy . are you gon na order some coffee , or are you gon na keep playing mother hen ? stitch : i should order for every resident at memorial -- frothing drinks with foam and stuff . dylan : you should do it . stitch : yeah , get cocky with your recovery . dylan : you do that , 'cause you know what ? i need the income . i have to pay my medical bills . 200 bucks in aspirin , stitch ? ! are you kidding me ? ! stitch : it 's good aspirin . what do you want ? avery : what is wrong with you ? you 're working ? and what is wrong with you for encouraging him ? dylan : `` a , `` hello . `` b , `` i love you . and , `` c , `` if stitch tells me to pack it up and go home , i will do that because i trust this guy with my life . jack : please , kelly , trust me . tell me what happened . kelly : my brother ... is a murderer . jack : well , things happen in combat . things happen in the operating room . murder 's a different thing . murder is -- kelly : no , jack . it was one man , one night . it was n't an accident or self- defense . my brother killed a man . jack : oh , my god . kelly : see ? i told you my saying it was n't gon na make it any better . you knowing does n't make it go away . it 's just horrible , and there 's no way to fix it . jack : but you were brave enough to tell me this much . now you have to tell me the rest . kelly : ohh . is n't that enough ? jack : the worst part is over . kelly : no , it 's not ... 'cause now i have to tell you who he killed , and that is the worst part of all . traci : well , that will be perfect , and i would like to go on record right now predicting a happy and healing family dinner . abby : mm . traci : [ laughs ] we 'll see . abby : yeah . [ chuckles ] [ sighs ] summer : what , you thought ... ? no , no , no , no . i 'm not -- i 'm not pregnant . no . i meant , you know , later , years from now . austin : even still , i mean , years from now , kids ? summer : yeah . i mean , i know six is insane , but it 's kind of what i always wanted . but three -- three is okay . austin : three ? summer : yeah , you know , like two years apart -- you know , like the double stroller . aw , i think it 's so cute ! austin : double stroller ? summer : uh - huh . austin : maybe even a minivan ? summer : no , not a minivan . just like a three - row s.u.v . is cool . austin : you 've thought about this , like , a lot . summer : no , not ... a lot -- like , just enough . why ? you never thought about having kids ? austin : god , no . that came out wrong . um ... what i meant was ... summer : yeah ? austin : i just never really thought about , you know , being a dad , changing diapers . i mean , before my mom passed , i was always about going to film school , being a director , going to new york or hollywood . summer : swimming pools and gorgeous girls . i can see it now . austin : i have the swimming pool and the only gorgeous girl i 'll ever need . traci : all right . where would you like to sit , abby ? abby ? abby . abby : uh ... tyler changed his faceplace status to `` single . `` traci : ohh . the modern etiquette of romance and all of your personal details on blast , as they say . i 'm so sorry , sweetie . abby : no , it 's -- it 's fine . he 's just stating a fact . he is single . i am single . we were together , and now we are both single . traci : well , it 's not really a curse being single , you know ? i mean , it 's just a reality . it 's just a simple fact of life . abby : oh , my god . he was tagged in a bar with a bunch of hot women . how pathetic . yeah , tyler , we know hot women flock to you , and stalkers like mariah . congratulations . traci : okay . i think maybe that 's enough for today . this is not doing you any good . tonight is about celebrating the people that support you . this is not about obsessing over people who have failed you in some way , right ? that 's on them , not on us , okay ? abby : you 're right . i 'm gon na go check on mrs. martinez and the food . and , hey , i 'm not eating my feelings away . i am simply checking on the food . traci : i understand , okay ? [ laughs ] [ sighs ] no , that 's silly . abby : aunt traci , what about the , uh -- were you about to check steve 's faceplace account ? traci : [ sighs ] well , um , i have to admit i did n't even think about a status change until just now , and i was a little curious . abby : yeah , but you did n't do it . you did n't check it . you 're so much more brave and stronger than i am . traci : [ laughs ] no , i 'm just older and a little more tired . abby : you are the smartest woman that i know . i think everyone just focuses on how nice you are . you are the sweetest -- you 're like a warm hug that makes everybody feel better . but you 're tough , too . and you 've been through things that would crush most people . and i know that i will never be as good as you , but i hope one day i can be as strong . traci : that 's so sweet . [ sniffles ] what a lovely thing to say . abby : i mean it . traci : i have something else lovely that i recently heard . i would like to share with you . men are a luxury , not a necessity . abby : that is brilliant . where did you hear that ? traci : uh , cher . [ both laugh ] abby : okay . even better . yeah , that cuts right to the heart of it . men are n't a necessity . i mean , we do n't need them . we 're not gon na collapse in a heap without them . traci : no , my darling . we certainly are not . [ sighs ] kelly : after all of that , uh ... to find out that we were both in the same town , trying to stay out of each other 's lives -- i mean , i hated him . jack : that 's understandable . kelly : i just did n't understand how he had a right to go on with his life . i was just so angry at -- at him and at myself for knowing him , worse for being related . you know , all the times that i said i 've got to get out of town , you know , part of it was because of all the stupid mistakes that i had made , but also , part of it was because i just did n't want to see his face -- you know , watch him smile and get on with his life . jack : thank you . thank you for telling me all this . kelly : but , jack , do you think maybe that you see me differently now that you know what my brother 's done ? jack : no , no , no , no , no . i look at you , and i see you . i look at stitch ... billy was right ! it was n't jealousy . it was n't paranoia . stitch was keeping a secret . kelly : yes , i know . we both know . and i 'm so sorry , jack . i 'm so sorry . i never meant to shut you out . jack : i 've got to find billy . i got to tell him this . kelly : no , no , no , no , no . you ca n't do that . you can not say a word . billy : chelsea , call 911 . sorry . sorry . maintenance . i did n't know you guys were -- i 'm sorry . billy : yeah , sure , you are , jackass . i came to check on the mold a couple months back . i guess it was your mom here with a baby . cute kid . chelsea : uh , y - yeah . i - i guess . okay . billy : `` okay `` ? that 's it ? chelsea : well , what do you want me to say ? billy : i do n't know . how 'bout `` what the hell are you doing just walking in like that ? `` chelsea : he 's right . i mean , you ca n't just come in here . i thought the super said you were out . billy : well , clearly , the super was wrong . i came to see if you have that same buzz other residents have complained about . i can come back later . billy : yeah , and next time , wait for somebody to answer the door . chelsea : and there was a buzzing . there was some buzzing in my son 's room , but i have n't heard it recently . maybe i should check it out . things like that can pop back up at the worst time . avery : i did n't mean to go off on you guys . dylan : yes , you did . avery : you 're right . i did . stitch : i get it . you 're in love . whatever it takes to keep that person safe -- you do what you got to do . dylan : what do you need me to do -- bench - press the espresso machine to let you know that i 'm okay ? stitch : yeah . hey , you have my word , avery -- he 's doing okay . plus , keeping him cooped up at home might make him a little nutty , like a wolf caught in a trap , gnawing off his own foot . avery : that 's very reassuring , stitch . thank you . but i would like to shove you in a car and take you home . dylan : no . i 'm okay . barton : mcavoy . you look well . dylan : thank you . is that your professional opinion ? barton : if it helps , sure . dylan : yeah , it does help . professional opinion . avery : yeah , i heard the first time . barton : dr. rayburn , you have a moment ? stitch : sure . of course . barton : privately , please . excuse us . stitch : dr. shelby . what can i do for you ? barton : i 've heard some rumors about you . i need to find out if they 're true . jack : you do n't want me to tell billy that your brother is a murderer ? he 's alone with victoria all the time , with johnny . who knows what stitch would do ? kelly : no , i swear to you , jack , billy 's family is not in danger , okay ? nobody is . ben is not the same man that he was . look , i 'll never understand what he did or why he did it , but my brother is different now . jack : how do you know that ? you just finished telling me he would lie about his name . a short while ago , you did n't want to be in the same room with him . now you 're defending him ? kelly : well , i missed him . i missed him , okay ? i hated what he did . i hated who he was . but it 's different now . jack : because you forgive him ? kelly : no , i do n't forgive him . i will never forgive him . but having my brother in my life -- it matters to me . look , i mean , he 's paid for what he 's done . he has served his time . the life that he has built -- i mean , it 's a good life doing good things . it 's more than anybody could have hoped for . jack : even if that 's true ... kelly : it is ! jack : ... it does n't mean billy does n't deserve to know . kelly : jack , do you remember when i first came to town and i told you that i 'd lost everything -- i 'd lost my son , my marriage , myself ? i also lost my brother . please do n't make me lose my brother again over this . jack : so , that 's it ? i 'm just supposed to keep this secret from the people i love ? i 'm not sure i can do this . kelly : i understand how hard it is to keep a secret . that 's why you asked me to share it with you , and so i did . and i trusted you . and now that i have , please trust me . keep the secret and do n't make me lose my brother over it . jack : kelly , i know you 're trying to protect your brother . billy is my brother . chelsea : it 's the nursery . you 'll see it on the left . i remember . thanks . billy : [ sighs ] what kind of idiot walks in without knocking ? hey . hey , it 's okay . he 's not an ax murderer , or at least i think he 's not , especially since when the hot young couple is just about to have sex , that 's usually when they get skewered , and we did n't , so we 're good . chelsea : i did n't think he was a murderer . billy : what , then ? chelsea : it does n't matter . billy : come on , chels . chelsea : i know how it sounds -- all right , okay ? -- before you say anything , but ... [ sighs ] when i heard a sound and i looked up and saw a man standing there , before i saw his face , my first thought was ... `` adam 's home . `` avery : i got that . dylan : wait . what ? avery : yeah . dylan : is that why you went to law school -- to wipe down countertops ? avery : well , if it 'll get you to set down or , better yet , lie down ... dylan : nah , i did too much of that after afghanistan . avery , i can handle this , plus i got two doctors out on the patio in case i pass out . avery : that is not funny . why do you do that ? dylan : ow ! avery : oh , my god . i 'm s -- dylan : no , i 'm just kidding . avery : that 's not funny , either . dylan : okay . how 'bout if i promise to stop trying to be funny if you stop trying to make me go home ? leslie : oh , there you are . um , i have news . oh , sorry i 'm -- i 'm interrupting . you look well , dylan . dylan : thank you . i feel good . leslie : uh , can we speak in private ? avery : yeah , of course , if we need to . dylan : uh , is something up ? 'cause usually you guys just talk business as if i 'm not here , unless -- unless it 's confidential . avery : is it ? leslie : um ... no . no . it will be public record soon , so . avery : go on . leslie : the judge is not allowing a change of venue for austin 's trial . he 'll be tried here in genoa city . dylan : well , that 's -- that 's good . leslie : yeah . well , given christine 's relationship with the victim , she 'll have to recuse herself . dylan : who 's gon na handle the case for the prosecution ? leslie : one of her junior adas . dylan : mm , that 's just great . a guy shoots a cop , and some kid out of law school is gon na try to convict him . avery : okay . there are plenty of good lawyer in the da 's office . dylan : yeah , but they 're not christine . she 's invested in the case . she would have done everything in her power to send austin to prison . now it 's gon na be easier for him to get a pass . stitch : whatever you 've heard about me -- barton : insightful , attentive , intuitive -- those are the things i 've heard about you . so , i ask you , is it true ? stitch : [ chuckles ] who said that ? barton : your direct supervisors , nursing staff , other residents ... me . stitch : yeah . i hope it 's true . [ chuckles ] barton : you looked worried there for a minute . anything i should know ? stitch : i might have swiped a power bar or two from the residents ' lounge . [ chuckles ] honestly , uh ... being a doctor means the world to me . there was a time when i did n't think it would happen , but making a person on a good day , saving a life on a great one -- i ca n't imagine doing anything else with my life . barton : good . how 'd you like to be chief resident ? stitch : [ scoffs ] kelly : jack , i have lost so much , but so has ben . to shred everything that he 's done , everything that he 's made of his life -- jack : all based on lies . i 'm not trying to hurt your brother . i 'm not passing judgment , handing out punishment . victoria has been a part of my family life for years , first as my stepdaughter , then as my sister - in - law . how can i know and not tell her ? kelly : ben loves victoria . she has given him a kind of peace that has been missing in his life -- happiness and hope and someone to care for . what about jenna and max ? i mean , they were safe with him . jack : as soon as jenna found out the truth , she left him -- moved halfway across the world . should n't victoria be allowed to make the same decision ? [ cell phone rings ] jack : trace , i know . i 'm running a little late . traci : jack , come home already ! abby : let 's get this party started ! traci : yeah ! this is n't just a normal family dinner . come on ! hurry up ! jack : of course . i 'm on my way . we have to get to dinner . we 're late . kelly : i have to know what you 're gon na do , jack . jack : i do n't know . right now , i 'm gon na go have dinner . kelly : and after that ? jack : after that , i do n't know . i do n't know what to do with any of this information . i do know one thing -- it changes everything . billy : yes . party started . i hear you , abby . i 'm coming . what did i just say ? would you stop talking ? thank you . bye . hey , guess what . chelsea : you have to leave . billy : abbott family dinner -- not that i would n't rather stay here . chelsea : just make sure you take both your socks this time . billy : if i left one behind , could i come back and get it later -- maybe bring you some dessert ? chelsea : nah , you can ply me with sweets some other time . billy : i look forward to it . [ sighs ] chelsea : [ sighs ] billy : oh . wait a second . do you want me to wait until this guy 's gone ? you know , i 'll just call abby . chelsea : no , no . no , no . it 's fine . besides , abby will kill you . billy : that i can take . you 're sure you 're cool with him being here ? chelsea : i 'm good . i promise . and , by the way , i 'm not delusional . that thing about adam -- that was just a weird moment of me forgetting about the past few months . trust me -- i know adam 's never coming home . chelsea : did you find anything ? wiring is solid . nothing out of the ordinary . we 're still checking our other units . if we find a glitch , i 'll need to follow up here . chelsea : okay , sure . just make sure you knock next time . do n't use the key and just come in . yeah , sorry about that . like i said -- chelsea : the super . i know . my apologies again if i blew your evening . you changed things up since i was here -- moved stuff around . chelsea : yeah . sometimes change is good . austin : [ sighs ] summer : and somehow we still have n't changed for dinner . austin : well , we 're still on our honeymoon . i 'm pretty sure that clothes are forbidden . we 're only allowed swimwear , a pool , and a bed . summer : mm . yeah -- plus going to my dad 's house for dinner . austin : that 's a mood - killer . summer : i 'm sorry . okay ? we 're gon na have a real honeymoon someday , i promise . austin : yeah , maybe backpack through costa rica , hike the inca trail . summer : backpacking and hiking ? austin : that does n't sound fun ? summer : it just sounds ... dirty . i 'm sorry to sound like abby , but i would like to wash my hair more than once a week , you know ? you 're an adventure guy ? austin : you 're a hotel girl ? summer : look at how much we 're learning about each other . we 're on our own adventure with no backpacks needed . austin : what ? come on . you were the girl who was gon na run off to canada with me . summer : yeah , and i 'm pretty sure that they have showers there . austin : and i 'm pretty sure that i could join you . summer : mm . and , somehow , our different versions of a honeymoon do n't seem to matter anymore . austin : hmm . good news , bad news , 'cause it does n't really matter . i 'm gon na be in prison anyway . summer : do n't . stop . do n't say that . leslie is fighting for you , and she 's gon na make sure that everyone understands why you did what you did . austin : what if she ca n't ? or what if they do n't care and they just lock me up anyway ? summer : then i 'll wait for you . and we can compromise by hiking in between 5-star hotels . austin : summer , you have a life . summer : yeah , and it 's with you . okay ? when you find your soul mate , that 's all that matters . okay ? austin : yeah . abby : i 've arranged one family dinner , and , suddenly , no one can tell time , once again abandoned by men . i 'm sorry . i did n't mean you . i meant me . and it 's not like i 'm pining . i mean ... do n't listen to me about anything . traci : abby , it 's gon na be all right . i know you 're scared . but there 's going to be another man -- probably a few . some of them will make you laugh . some of them will make you crazy . [ both chuckle ] traci : and one of them will be the one . abby : but we agreed -- men are n't a necessity . traci : no ! of course they 're not a necessity , but they 're certainly nice to have around , you know ? someone to lean against on the sofa when you 're watching a movie , somebody who brings you an iced tea before you even know that you 're thirsty . abby : aunt traci ... traci : abby , you 're going to find a man who fits , and you 'll know it because it will feel right , just like you knew when things were not right with tyler . abby : i think you 're giving me too much credit . i mean , i thought tyler was the perfect guy for me , and i walked away . so , i either screwed up leaving him or picking him at all . how can i be trusted with any romantic decisions ? traci : no . no . just because a relationship ended does n't mean you screwed it up . it means it ended . you know , i hate that , when they say that a marriage failed . it just does n't work anymore , you know ? it does n't mean that it was n't good and real while it lasted . abby , you 're so much stronger now and so much more mature . you 're a wonderful , wonderful young lady -- even more wonderful than when you met tyler . abby : but i was happy . and i want to be happy again . traci : you will be , i promise . abby : and you will , too . traci : oh , sweetie . [ doorbell rings ] abby : ohh . how formal -- ringing the doorbell . it 's kind of cute . traci : [ laughs ] abby : [ sighs ] abby : hi . my uncle jack 's not here . i 'll tell him you stopped by . jack : i was getting the mail . please , kelly , come in to my home . traci : kelly , hello . it 's so great to see you . i 'm so glad you could join us . kelly : thank you . thank you so much . so -- so am i . abby : aunt traci , can we talk about the canapés , please ? traci : um ... abby : you invited her ? traci : um ... abby : kelly should n't be here . billy 's coming . traci : billy is a grown man , and so is jack . honey , i did n't invite her , but jack can have anyone he wants to to dinner . abby : family dinner , `` family `` being the key word . traci : okay . maybe your uncle jack is making a statement , then , about who he considers to be family . now , you -- behave yourself . i mean it . um , can i get you anything to drink ? kelly : oh , uh , water would be fine . thank you . everything looks lovely . traci : oh , thank you . just wait till you taste dinner . mrs. martinez is an absolute genius . so , you guys just relax . abby and i will take care of all of the details . jack : thanks , trace . traci : okay . kelly : [ sighs ] i do n't know -- i do n't know how you expect me to act normal when my brother 's future is at risk . jack : i 'm a little more concerned that my sister - in - law 's safety has been at risk all this time . kelly : i told you that you would n't be able to deal with it , but you begged me to trust you . jack : yeah , i did . but the news you told me was a little more than i expected , and i do n't have any answers right now -- no easy answers . i 'm sorry . [ door opens ] kelly : if that 's billy -- jack : ohh . i wish it were . kelly : she needs your support , jack . jack : hey , there ! look at you ! you 've been out by the pool , have n't you ? summer : hello . jack : hi . summer : hi . austin : it 's pretty great at the athletic club . it 's nice to see you again , sir . jack : i did n't realize you 'd be joining us . summer : it 's a family dinner , and traci invited me and my husband . abby : of course she did . traci : austin , we 're so glad that you could come , and i know that there are kind of a lot of abbotts all in one place , but do n't worry -- you 'll get used to us . [ chuckles ] austin : maybe i should n't be here . i could just go -- summer : uh , dad , aunt traci , abby , kelly , thank you for tonight -- inviting me and my husband to dinner . you know , it 's kind of funny . austin 's kind of replaced me as the newest member of the abbott family , and i 'm just really glad that he could be here to see why i love you guys so much . avery : there 's no way stitch would sign off on you getting this upset . dylan : all right . i 'm calm now . avery : no , you 're not . dylan : all i 'm saying is it just seems like everyone wants to give this austin kid a free pass for what he did . i get it -- he misses his mom . you know what ? we all miss somebody . we do n't shoot the chief of police because of it . leslie : it was n't intentional . dylan : so , the bullets just hopped in the gun themselves ? does n't that matter ? leslie : intent matters . state of mind matters , as does remorse . dylan : so , if someone can shoot the chief of police and say , `` hey , my bad , `` and you 're gon na try to give him a free pass ? is that what you 're saying ? leslie : okay . for the record , i took this case because my partner asked me to , but i guess that 's beside the point . everyone has right to legal counsel . i mean , you know how the world works , and for you to pretend you do n't , i really do n't buy it . you have a personal stake in this . i totally get that . but i really think that it 's time for you to stop attacking me for being good at what i do . avery : okay . i understand , dylan , why you 're upset , and you see austin behind bars as justice . but the law makes allowances that you might not be willing to make -- for me , for paul . and leslie is just doing her job . dylan : you know what ? i guess it 's just easy to hide behind the whole lawyer thing , like how you knew ian was n't my father and did n't tell a soul until paul almost died . leslie : that fell under attorney - client privilege . avery : which she broke for paul 's sake . she put her entire career on the line . dylan : yeah , just like you when nikki told you i was her son . you know , i guess attorneys get to keep all the secrets , no matter what else everyone else deserves to know . leslie : you know what ? i wanted to give you an update , and now i have , so ... avery : thank you . leslie : you know , i 'm not about to stop working for a client because it offends you . now that we know where each other stands , i mean , we do n't need to do this again . dylan : [ sighs ] i 'm sorry . avery : [ sighs ] you need to let the law take care of austin and let me take care of you and stop blaming leslie for the nature of defense law . it 's not fair , especially -- i did ask her to take on this case . dylan : i 'm not mad at leslie , and i 'm not mad at you . i 'm just mad at myself . traci : okay , austin . we have some with meat and some without , but do n't worry -- as soon as we know what they are , we 'll have all your favorite foods . summer : yes , that 's next on the list of things i have to ask him -- his favorite foods . austin : yeah , right after favorite color . summer : yes , and flower . austin : wow . summer : [ laughs ] yes . uh , do you want a tour of the house ? austin : uh , yeah . that 'd be great . summer : okay . traci : that 's a great idea , summer . do n't forget the pool and the garden . summer : okay . traci : okay . summer : we can do this , okay ? austin : yeah . jack : you 're a terrific aunt . you know that ? traci : every member of this family has made their mistakes . i think that we 're the last who should judge so harshly . jack : can i still judge steve harshly for not working harder at keeping your marriage together ? traci : no ! we are not gon na be talking about that this evening , either . instead , we are going to be cheerful and welcoming , and we want to make sure that kelly and austin know we 're so happy that you 've joined us . and if that was too subtle , be nice to your son - in - law . abby : does he still count as a son - in - law if he goes to prison ? kelly : well , if he owns what he did , admits it , and regrets it , goes on to make a good life as a good person , then i do n't think it 's fair to judge him anymore . abby : we 're not talking jaywalker . we 're talking about a would - be killer . traci : um ... listen , i think i could use another cocktail . kelly : oh , i think i 'll join you . traci : please . right this way . kelly : thank you . abby : i guess we could use another place setting . jack : abby ... [ sighs ] billy : hey . sorry i 'm late . what did i miss ? jack : [ sighs ] you know your wife . that handkerchief is doing the trick . it should remind her of your original wedding anniversary , just like you said . and i say that kills the mood for her and billy abbott . avery : dylan , please do n't go backwards . please do n't blame yourself for what happened to paul . you went to save me , and you saved paul 's life . dylan : i do n't want to go backwards . look , i 'm just saying that [ sighs ] i did n't turn out to be an architect like i wanted or someone who changes the world , like i 'd hoped when i joined the military . you know , nothing is what i thought it would be , least of all me . but i 've been through so much . and you are the only constant in my life . leslie : congratulations . stitch : i 'm not chief resident yet , so ... leslie : uh , well , you know what they say -- it 's an honor to even be nominated . barton : well , it 's also better to get the job . well , i like your chances . coffee to celebrate . i 'll get the round . leslie : do n't bother dylan just now . he 's got a lot going on . stitch : what happened ? is he okay ? leslie : oh , he 's fine and healthy and furious with me for keeping something from him . you know , but i guess that 's how secrets work . normally , the last to know is very angry . kelly : excuse me . i 'll just go find jack . abby : kelly , wait . uh , i wanted to ask you a question . so , wow -- stitch is your brother . kelly : is that a question ? abby : no , but it 's not the kind of thing people usually lie about . so , why did you ? why the big secret ? billy : come on , jack . how bad can one dinner be ? jack : it 's not dinner , billy . billy : okay . so , what 's wrong ? jack : i got some news -- nothing i ever expected . billy : right . so , we 'll deal with it together . tell me what you heard .Summarize.[/INST]at the newman home , traci and abby prepare for a family dinner . summer and austin have had a swim at the rooftop pool . summer reminds him that they are really married . abby and traci try to figure out who to sit next to whom . the maintenance man walks over to the sofa and startles chelsea as she looks up . ben finds dylan cleaning tables at crimson lights and reads him the riot act for working after he had major surgery . avery also walks in and is upset to see dylan working . kelly tells jack that ben is a murderer and proceeds to tell him the whole story . when summer mentions children , austin gets the wrong idea and thinks that she is already pregnant , but she assures him that she is n't . when jack hears the rest of the story about ben being a murderer , he wants to tell billy , but kelly begs him not to .</s> | 17,627 |

[ whimpers ] nicole : thought maybe it had . kristen : [ inhales sharply ] nicole : this is classic kristen dimera and it 's obvious to me that you 're the one that stabbed victor . brady : look , this -- this is n't helping , obviously , so i know you do n't want to believe that i stabbed victor , but i did it . i did it and , uh , if i could take it back , i would , but i never meant to . eric : you could n't do it . you 're not violent . you could have never done it . i know you . it 's not in you . i mean , when i mentioned to you victor may die , you said , `` maggie . `` you care and protect the people you love , but when you go crazy , you take it out on yourself . you drink . you blame yourself . you do n't wan na ever attack those that you love , and you ca n't even make me believe that you would start with your grandfather . brady : you know , it 's funny . eric : what ? brady : do n't you get it ? i mean , you -- you 're sitting here telling me that i would n't be able to put a knife into my grandfather but it 's like one of those -- those sick greek plays that grandfather always talks about , you know ? the family curse , and how he could n't stop playing god so his own flesh and blood had to kill him . you know , the -- the fall of the house of kiriakis . it 's very poetic . eric : wow . brady : that 's it . eric : wow , that 's , um -- what 's the word that i 'm looking for ? a bunch of bull ! i know you and i know you did n't do it unless you were drunk as hell , but you were n't , and i saw you . brady : hey , i was n't drunk when i buried vivian . eric : no , because that was premeditated . it was calculated . it was level- headed . the person who stabbed victor was in a frenzy . brady : i had just found out that my daughter was taken from kristen and me , and given to you and sarah . i hated him for that . i did -- i did go into a frenzy , eric . i mean , he deserved everything that happened to him . eric : no , wait . brady : he deserved it . eric : he deserved what happened to him ? you said you were sorry , that you wish you could take it back . i know why you did n't do this . you do n't even know how you feel about it . that 's why i know you did n't kill him . brady : no , just -- just shut up about it , all right ? i do n't wan na talk about it anymore . eric : listen to what you 're saying . fit of rage . frenzy . something took over you . brady , that 's not you . it 's kristen . i 'm bad . gabi : oh , i do n't want tea . i need a double tequila . kate : no , no . you 're already seeing things that are n't there , so drink . gabi : i was n't hallucinating . that 's abigail 's department . kate : what are you talking about ? gabi : chad did n't tell you ? she 's back in the hospital . she 's seeing crazy visions of ben -- imaginary ben . kate : oh , my god . not again . gabi : oh , no , it 's not again . this time she was drugged , and everybody thinks it 's me . kate : well , is it ? jake : so , i talked to the owner and he said he does n't know you from adam , right ? does n't know your work history , does n't know anything about you . ben : i got it . i got it . jake : hey , ben , stay with me , all right ? that was me yesterday . look at me now . [ chuckles ] okay ? like i said , i got my fair share of work cut out for me here , which means you have a good chance of being hired by me . i 'm gon na be your boss . ben : okay . uh , well , that would be fine . jake : good , but you got ta prove yourself first . you can get the engine on this bad boy running , you 're in like flynn . ben : right , man . i 'm glad there 's hope . jake : yeah , so am i , 'cause you and me , i think we 're gon na hit it off . ciara : you know , i ca n't even believe that sarah answered the phone . i mean , after what you two have done . maggie 's in jail . sarah is god knows where . if they find her , she 'll go to prison forever , and if they do n't , brady will never see his own son again . you convinced sonny that his husband killed his own mother , and will went to prison for something that he did n't even do . xander : i 've hurt people terribly , i know . ciara : oh , please . you can drop the contrite puppy dog act , okay ? because i am not maggie and i will not fall for your crap . oh , grandpa . look at what you 've done . xander : ciara , he really did believe that if maggie found out what she 'd done , it would have killed her . ciara : and you wanted to help sarah because you love her . xander : i do . ciara : [ chuckles ] well , lucky , lucky maggie , huh ? what better than to be loved by two kiriakis men ? rex : mmm , so by the way , my mom tells me that you are engaged to xander . when 's the happy day ? sarah : uh , it 's not for a while , i 'm afraid . eric : brady , think about it . you 're trying to protect kristen so rachel has her mother , but come on , brady . what kind of mother ? it 's not widely understated that she has some anger management issues . brady : all right , stop . you know , eric , i 'm not gon na try to change your mind about the way you feel about kristen . i do n't need to do that . i do n't have to do that , but you were right here when i figured out that my grandfather was behind that baby switch . i went right from here and i went right to him . the fact is , kristen did n't even know that victor was involved in the baby switch until after i stabbed him . she did n't have any motive to kill him , brother . i did . nicole : oh , my god . you pushed haley down the stairs when she told you your baby had died . you stabbed victor when you found out he took your baby from you . kristen : i do n't know . being put away is the best way to live and i 'm never gon na see my baby again . brady : no you 're not , no you 're not , no you 're not , no you 're not . you know why ? 'cause it 's gon na be okay . look at me . open your eyes . look at me . it 's gon na be all right . kristen : [ crying ] brady : 'cause i 'm gon na take care of everything . i 'm gon na take care of everything . kristen : i -- i wo n't lie . when i found out , i -- i did wan na kill victor but brady got there first . nicole : then what did you mean when you said , `` this is happening all over again `` ? kristen : i meant that my baby is stolen and brady is in jail and i am all alone . no matter what i do , i always -- i always end up alone . ben : there we are . jake : you know , most mechanics have dirt under their nails . ben : yeah , well , this would be a career change for me . jake : oh . ben : if i get hired . jake : right . what 'd you do before ? ben : security . jake : for the guy who looked like me ? ben : yeah . jake : well , looks like you know what you 're doing . ben : yeah , well , if you think i know bikes , you should see my girlfriend . jake : ah . ben : she can take a bike apart , put it back together blindfolded . jake : and how often is she called upon to do that ? [ both chuckling ] ben : sorry , man . seem to get a little carried away when i talk about her . she 's the best thing that 's ever happened to me . xander : you do n't have to tell me what i 've done to sarah . i never stop thinking about it . ciara : thinking ? well , too bad you were n't thinking before you and grandfather decided to play god with people 's babies . xander : sarah wanted that baby so much . ciara : and the baby died , and that 's horrible , and the pain that sarah would have felt would have been unbelievable , but what about now ? after a whole year of believing that rachel was her little girl , after a year of loving her and holding her and taking care of her and falling more and more in love with her every single day , how is sarah supposed to lose that baby now , huh ? how the hell is she ever gon na get over this ? rex : so you and xander , it 's a long engagement ? sarah : no . i , uh -- um -- i changed my mind . weddings do n't really work out all that well for me anyway . rex : i vaguely remember . sarah : rex , i am so sorry . rex : [ laughs ] no , stop , look . sarah , i was just trying to will us into being happy and being in love with each other . i was trying to will you into forgetting about the fact that i had cheated on you multiple times and fathered a child with one of those women . or i was trying to will myself into not seeing that you and eric were in love . sarah : yeah , can we just not talk about it ? rex : so -- sarah : it was n't my finest hour . rex : was xander a -- was it a rebound or -- sarah : can you not talk about it ? rex : it was that bad , huh ? 'cause , like , i got ta be honest with you . i 'm happy you woke up because , like , xander ? come on . sarah : thank you -- thank you for not talking about it . rex : all right . is that why you 're here ? sarah : what ? rex : in paris . there 's no better place to visit when you 've called off a wedding . [ clears throat ] where you staying ? sarah : i -- rex : you , uh , do n't wan na tell me ? sarah : rex -- rex : no , it 's -- it 's -- it 's okay . sarah , you wanted to get away from everything with your baby , and i 'm the absolute last person on the face of the earth that you wanted to run into . i -- i understand that . call me the -- the ghost of weddings past . [ chuckles ] sarah : something like that . well , look , um , she 's an angel but not when she does n't get a nap so -- rex : oh , look , i -- i completely understand that . kids , they -- they rule everything . but i -- i do wan na say that motherhood looks really good on you . come here . adieu . and say hi to eric for me . and i 'll see you in salem maybe sometime soon . sarah : no . no , you won't . eric : so that 's your story ? and you 're sticking to it , right ? brady : mm . you 're really getting on my nerves , man . eric : i 'm sorry . let me know if you need anything . brady : eric , there -- there is something that i would like you to do for me , actually . uh , when we -- not we . when kristen finally gets rachel back , since she thinks of you as a dad already , would you mind , um , being there for her when she comes home ? because i obviously ca n't be there . will you do that for me ? eric : i 'll be there . [ phones ringing ] [ door closes ] nicole : well , of course you 're alone . everyone in salem is related to someone that you tried to kill . kristen : get out , or i 'm gon na -- nicole : or you 'll what ? you gon na kill me ? is that what you were gon na say ? [ sighs ] kristen , i am not taunting you . i am just trying to get you to think . look , you can pour over maps or give arias about how much you love your little baby , but crazy ladies need to make big changes if they want to be good at motherhood . i love holly more than life itself and she can be obstinate , defiant , drive me up a wall , but i have got to be the grown up . i have to keep it together . i ca n't get angry . that 's the job . that 's the job . so before brady goes to prison and leaves rachel entirely in your hands , you need to ask yourself , are you up to it ? can you not be you ? [ downtrodden music ] kirsten : can i ? can i not be me ? in this time of social distancing , [ melancholy music ] nicole : eric , i 'm scared . i 'm scared that it was n't brady who stabbed victor . i think it was -- eric : kristen . nicole : you , too ? eric : sit down . i just saw brady . i told him that i thought it was kristen , that he was just covering for her . nicole : and ? eric : he said it could n't have been her . she did n't know what victor had done until after he was stabbed . nicole : and you believe that ? eric : i believe that brady 's not gon na back down . i think he 's just doing what is best for rachel . nicole : i told kristen she needs to think about what 's best for rachel . eric : you know brady 's not gon na back down about this . nicole : maybe kristen will . [ phones ringing ] kristen : brady , i 'm so -- brady : come here . here , yeah . we have to get something -- something straight about last night , all right ? listen . you did n't know anything . you did n't know anything about victor being involved in that baby switch until eli and lani brought me in here . you hear me ? i want you to repeat that . you did n't know anything . kristen : brady , brady . wait , wait , wait , wait , wait . please . i have decided that i am not gon na let you do this . i 'm gon na confess to what i did . ciara : you know what ? just go , okay ? i would like to be alone with my grandfather right now . xander : i 'm gon na find sarah . ciara : then god help her . [ machines beeping ] kind of an awful sense of deja vu going on here right now . me sitting by your bed and begging you to wake up . [ soft dramatic music ] uh , you know the last time i was sorry because i thought that i did n't tell you that i loved you enough when i had the chance , but i just -- i hope that you know how much i love you because i love you so much even though you make it so damn hard sometimes . oh , grandpa . [ crying ] victor : ciara . ciara : [ laughs softly ] ben : so how about you ? you got a woman in your life ? gabi : okay , why does everybody keep asking if i drugged abigail ? kate : because they know you .

[ whimpers ] nicole : thought maybe it had . kristen : [ inhales sharply ] nicole : this is classic kristen dimera and it 's obvious to me that you 're the one that stabbed victor . brady : look , this -- this is n't helping , obviously , so i know you do n't want to believe that i stabbed victor , but i did it . i did it and , uh , if i could take it back , i would , but i never meant to . eric : you could n't do it . you 're not violent . you could have never done it . i know you . it 's not in you . i mean , when i mentioned to you victor may die , you said , `` maggie . `` you care and protect the people you love , but when you go crazy , you take it out on yourself . you drink . you blame yourself . you do n't wan na ever attack those that you love , and you ca n't even make me believe that you would start with your grandfather . brady : you know , it 's funny . eric : what ? brady : do n't you get it ? i mean , you -- you 're sitting here telling me that i would n't be able to put a knife into my grandfather but it 's like one of those -- those sick greek plays that grandfather always talks about , you know ? the family curse , and how he could n't stop playing god so his own flesh and blood had to kill him . you know , the -- the fall of the house of kiriakis . it 's very poetic . eric : wow . brady : that 's it . eric : wow , that 's , um -- what 's the word that i 'm looking for ? a bunch of bull ! i know you and i know you did n't do it unless you were drunk as hell , but you were n't , and i saw you . brady : hey , i was n't drunk when i buried vivian . eric : no , because that was premeditated . it was calculated . it was level- headed . the person who stabbed victor was in a frenzy . brady : i had just found out that my daughter was taken from kristen and me , and given to you and sarah . i hated him for that . i did -- i did go into a frenzy , eric . i mean , he deserved everything that happened to him . eric : no , wait . brady : he deserved it . eric : he deserved what happened to him ? you said you were sorry , that you wish you could take it back . i know why you did n't do this . you do n't even know how you feel about it . that 's why i know you did n't kill him . brady : no , just -- just shut up about it , all right ? i do n't wan na talk about it anymore . eric : listen to what you 're saying . fit of rage . frenzy . something took over you . brady , that 's not you . it 's kristen . i 'm bad . gabi : oh , i do n't want tea . i need a double tequila . kate : no , no . you 're already seeing things that are n't there , so drink . gabi : i was n't hallucinating . that 's abigail 's department . kate : what are you talking about ? gabi : chad did n't tell you ? she 's back in the hospital . she 's seeing crazy visions of ben -- imaginary ben . kate : oh , my god . not again . gabi : oh , no , it 's not again . this time she was drugged , and everybody thinks it 's me . kate : well , is it ? jake : so , i talked to the owner and he said he does n't know you from adam , right ? does n't know your work history , does n't know anything about you . ben : i got it . i got it . jake : hey , ben , stay with me , all right ? that was me yesterday . look at me now . [ chuckles ] okay ? like i said , i got my fair share of work cut out for me here , which means you have a good chance of being hired by me . i 'm gon na be your boss . ben : okay . uh , well , that would be fine . jake : good , but you got ta prove yourself first . you can get the engine on this bad boy running , you 're in like flynn . ben : right , man . i 'm glad there 's hope . jake : yeah , so am i , 'cause you and me , i think we 're gon na hit it off . ciara : you know , i ca n't even believe that sarah answered the phone . i mean , after what you two have done . maggie 's in jail . sarah is god knows where . if they find her , she 'll go to prison forever , and if they do n't , brady will never see his own son again . you convinced sonny that his husband killed his own mother , and will went to prison for something that he did n't even do . xander : i 've hurt people terribly , i know . ciara : oh , please . you can drop the contrite puppy dog act , okay ? because i am not maggie and i will not fall for your crap . oh , grandpa . look at what you 've done . xander : ciara , he really did believe that if maggie found out what she 'd done , it would have killed her . ciara : and you wanted to help sarah because you love her . xander : i do . ciara : [ chuckles ] well , lucky , lucky maggie , huh ? what better than to be loved by two kiriakis men ? rex : mmm , so by the way , my mom tells me that you are engaged to xander . when 's the happy day ? sarah : uh , it 's not for a while , i 'm afraid . eric : brady , think about it . you 're trying to protect kristen so rachel has her mother , but come on , brady . what kind of mother ? it 's not widely understated that she has some anger management issues . brady : all right , stop . you know , eric , i 'm not gon na try to change your mind about the way you feel about kristen . i do n't need to do that . i do n't have to do that , but you were right here when i figured out that my grandfather was behind that baby switch . i went right from here and i went right to him . the fact is , kristen did n't even know that victor was involved in the baby switch until after i stabbed him . she did n't have any motive to kill him , brother . i did . nicole : oh , my god . you pushed haley down the stairs when she told you your baby had died . you stabbed victor when you found out he took your baby from you . kristen : i do n't know . being put away is the best way to live and i 'm never gon na see my baby again . brady : no you 're not , no you 're not , no you 're not , no you 're not . you know why ? 'cause it 's gon na be okay . look at me . open your eyes . look at me . it 's gon na be all right . kristen : [ crying ] brady : 'cause i 'm gon na take care of everything . i 'm gon na take care of everything . kristen : i -- i wo n't lie . when i found out , i -- i did wan na kill victor but brady got there first . nicole : then what did you mean when you said , `` this is happening all over again `` ? kristen : i meant that my baby is stolen and brady is in jail and i am all alone . no matter what i do , i always -- i always end up alone . ben : there we are . jake : you know , most mechanics have dirt under their nails . ben : yeah , well , this would be a career change for me . jake : oh . ben : if i get hired . jake : right . what 'd you do before ? ben : security . jake : for the guy who looked like me ? ben : yeah . jake : well , looks like you know what you 're doing . ben : yeah , well , if you think i know bikes , you should see my girlfriend . jake : ah . ben : she can take a bike apart , put it back together blindfolded . jake : and how often is she called upon to do that ? [ both chuckling ] ben : sorry , man . seem to get a little carried away when i talk about her . she 's the best thing that 's ever happened to me . xander : you do n't have to tell me what i 've done to sarah . i never stop thinking about it . ciara : thinking ? well , too bad you were n't thinking before you and grandfather decided to play god with people 's babies . xander : sarah wanted that baby so much . ciara : and the baby died , and that 's horrible , and the pain that sarah would have felt would have been unbelievable , but what about now ? after a whole year of believing that rachel was her little girl , after a year of loving her and holding her and taking care of her and falling more and more in love with her every single day , how is sarah supposed to lose that baby now , huh ? how the hell is she ever gon na get over this ? rex : so you and xander , it 's a long engagement ? sarah : no . i , uh -- um -- i changed my mind . weddings do n't really work out all that well for me anyway . rex : i vaguely remember . sarah : rex , i am so sorry . rex : [ laughs ] no , stop , look . sarah , i was just trying to will us into being happy and being in love with each other . i was trying to will you into forgetting about the fact that i had cheated on you multiple times and fathered a child with one of those women . or i was trying to will myself into not seeing that you and eric were in love . sarah : yeah , can we just not talk about it ? rex : so -- sarah : it was n't my finest hour . rex : was xander a -- was it a rebound or -- sarah : can you not talk about it ? rex : it was that bad , huh ? 'cause , like , i got ta be honest with you . i 'm happy you woke up because , like , xander ? come on . sarah : thank you -- thank you for not talking about it . rex : all right . is that why you 're here ? sarah : what ? rex : in paris . there 's no better place to visit when you 've called off a wedding . [ clears throat ] where you staying ? sarah : i -- rex : you , uh , do n't wan na tell me ? sarah : rex -- rex : no , it 's -- it 's -- it 's okay . sarah , you wanted to get away from everything with your baby , and i 'm the absolute last person on the face of the earth that you wanted to run into . i -- i understand that . call me the -- the ghost of weddings past . [ chuckles ] sarah : something like that . well , look , um , she 's an angel but not when she does n't get a nap so -- rex : oh , look , i -- i completely understand that . kids , they -- they rule everything . but i -- i do wan na say that motherhood looks really good on you . come here . adieu . and say hi to eric for me . and i 'll see you in salem maybe sometime soon . sarah : no . no , you won't . eric : so that 's your story ? and you 're sticking to it , right ? brady : mm . you 're really getting on my nerves , man . eric : i 'm sorry . let me know if you need anything . brady : eric , there -- there is something that i would like you to do for me , actually . uh , when we -- not we . when kristen finally gets rachel back , since she thinks of you as a dad already , would you mind , um , being there for her when she comes home ? because i obviously ca n't be there . will you do that for me ? eric : i 'll be there . [ phones ringing ] [ door closes ] nicole : well , of course you 're alone . everyone in salem is related to someone that you tried to kill . kristen : get out , or i 'm gon na -- nicole : or you 'll what ? you gon na kill me ? is that what you were gon na say ? [ sighs ] kristen , i am not taunting you . i am just trying to get you to think . look , you can pour over maps or give arias about how much you love your little baby , but crazy ladies need to make big changes if they want to be good at motherhood . i love holly more than life itself and she can be obstinate , defiant , drive me up a wall , but i have got to be the grown up . i have to keep it together . i ca n't get angry . that 's the job . that 's the job . so before brady goes to prison and leaves rachel entirely in your hands , you need to ask yourself , are you up to it ? can you not be you ? [ downtrodden music ] kirsten : can i ? can i not be me ? in this time of social distancing , [ melancholy music ] nicole : eric , i 'm scared . i 'm scared that it was n't brady who stabbed victor . i think it was -- eric : kristen . nicole : you , too ? eric : sit down . i just saw brady . i told him that i thought it was kristen , that he was just covering for her . nicole : and ? eric : he said it could n't have been her . she did n't know what victor had done until after he was stabbed . nicole : and you believe that ? eric : i believe that brady 's not gon na back down . i think he 's just doing what is best for rachel . nicole : i told kristen she needs to think about what 's best for rachel . eric : you know brady 's not gon na back down about this . nicole : maybe kristen will . [ phones ringing ] kristen : brady , i 'm so -- brady : come here . here , yeah . we have to get something -- something straight about last night , all right ? listen . you did n't know anything . you did n't know anything about victor being involved in that baby switch until eli and lani brought me in here . you hear me ? i want you to repeat that . you did n't know anything . kristen : brady , brady . wait , wait , wait , wait , wait . please . i have decided that i am not gon na let you do this . i 'm gon na confess to what i did . ciara : you know what ? just go , okay ? i would like to be alone with my grandfather right now . xander : i 'm gon na find sarah . ciara : then god help her .

[ scene_break ] neal : so , i take it holden snyder 's not your favorite subject . carly : well , i 'm trying not to think about him at all , so i can definitely use a distraction . neal : does that mean we can see each other again ? carly : it depends on what you have in mind . neal : well , i wo n't suggest paris , although the offer is always available . how about lunch at lakeview ? carly : sure . why not ? [ cell phone rings ] neal : excuse me . neal stokes . mike : neal , its mike kasnoff . we may have a problem at the snyder farm . neal : lucky me . i just arrived in oakdale . mike : good . we 'll need to sit down right away . it 's kind of an emergency . neal : very well . meet me at lakeview . mike : i 'm heading over now . neal : right . sorry . think we could push our lunch back , say , half an hour ? carly : are you kidding ? it 's gon na take me at least that long to get dressed . neal : why , you look splendid as you are . although , i 'm interested in to see how you improve on perfection . carly : secret is in the makeup . but of course , as you know , if i told you , i 'd have to kill you . neal : well , lucky me . at least i 'd die happy . [ scene_break ] holden : my moving out of the farm had nothing to do with carly . lily : what does emma have to say about it ? holden : well , she would prefer it if i were at the house with you and the kids , but it 's pretty obvious that you do n't want me there . i do n't understand why it makes a difference to you whether i live at the farm or the hotel . lily : i co - own the lakeview . i 'm surprised you 'd want to be there . holden : i chose to be there because it 's close to places that i need to be . but if you want to evict me , then go right ahead . lily : no , no . stay as long as you 'd like . frankly , i do n't care what you do , but if you want to spend time with carly , do n't lie to me about it .

[ scene_break ] holden : i did n't come here to talk about carly or to tell you for the hundredth time that the affair is over . lily : well , that 's your business . from now on , i wo n't ask you about your personal life , holden , as long as you sign the papers and make it all legal . holden : lily , right now i 'm concerned about aaron . that 's why i wanted to sit down with you . i wanted to talk about how we 're gon na help him get better when he gets home from the hospital . but you would rather fight about us . lily : i did n't have to come here . i came here for aaron 's sake . but no matter what i do , it is never enough .

[ scene_break ] aaron : i 've loved you for a long time , alison . i just did n't admit it to myself . but after last night , i knew i had to say something . alison : well , i 'm glad you did . aaron : seeing my dad and lily here -- it really sucks that they 're still split . they 've loved each other since they were kids . but they just ca n't get past all the stuff that 's keeping them apart . and you know they 'd be so much happier if they just let it all go and tried over . alison : and that made you think about us ? aaron : yeah , a little . but i hope it 's not a horrible shock or anything that -- alison : no , aaron . i -- aaron : listen . and i 'm not expecting you to say it back , okay ? i just want to tell you that i love you and that i always will .

[ scene_break ] chris : can i ask you something ? alison : sure . chris : the real reason you do n't want me to take you home is that , um -- is it because you 're uncomfortable around me ? alison : no , no . it 's not that . chris : when you were sick and i went to draw blood , you hallucinated , you thought i was attacking you . alison : yeah , i was just really out of it , chris . chris : i know , but you did n't have that reaction with aaron , my father , or your mother -- just with me . and i ca n't help feeling that , deep down , you 're really afraid of me . and i just want to let you know that i would never hurt you , alison . and if you can believe that , then maybe you can trust me again in the future . alison : i do trust you , chris . me staying here today -- it has nothing to do with you . chris : what is it , then ? is there something more going on with you and aaron that i should know about ?

noah : because you 're eating plain toast and tea and you barely touched that . summer : i 'm just not hungry right now . i 'm worried about my mom . noah : good . no , not that you 're worried -- just i do n't think that anybody 's ready for you and austin to have kids yet , especially ... you and austin . summer : yeah . not my mom , for sure . she freaked when she found out that austin and i were engaged , and it only got worse when i actually let it drop that we 're actually married . noah : it is a little shocking . summer : why -- because i 'm 19 ? i 'm not 12 . my mom acts like i 'm still a kid completely incapable of making adult decisions on my own . noah : dad and jack -- they freaked out , too , remember ? summer : do i remember ? yes . they completely lost it . jack called the cops . noah : as soon as your mom has had some time to get used to it , she 'll come around . summer : my mother ? phyllis `` my way and only my way , so help me , god `` newman ? really ? you think so ? noah : uh ... look , a lot has changed since she 's been gone , okay ? things will smooth over as soon as she 's had time to process everything . phyllis : okay . you do n't have to stay , jack . jack : i do n't mind . phyllis : the doctors warned me these follow - up visits could take hours . jack : it 's why i cleared my schedule to be with you . phyllis : you did n't have to do that . you have a business to run . jack : nothing is more important than your health right now . phyllis : you know i love you , do n't you ? jack : i hear a `` but `` coming here . phyllis : but if you do n't stop treating me like i am made out of glass -- think about the worst fight we ever had . jack : ooh . that bad ? phyllis : yeah , that bad . so , please stop tiptoeing around me . jack : okay . phyllis : you know you can be honest with me ? jack : does that require an honest answer ? phyllis : jack . jack : i 'll try . phyllis : i do n't understand you . what are you trying to protect me from ? stitch : what did you lose ? kelly : ohh . besides my mind , the guest list for a halloween event . stitch : so print up another one . kelly : i ca n't . this was the client 's copy . it was handwritten with little yellow sticky notes on it . it was in a folder , and i must have put it down somewhere . i just do n't know where . stitch : kelly , kelly ... try to slow down . kelly : i ca n't . if i slow down , i will start to think about other things , and you know where that leads . stitch : all too well . kelly : on top of that , mom is lurking . stitch : and that ca n't be helping with your stress level . kelly : no ! the woman -- she just knows how to push my buttons . does she ever stop asking questions ? stitch : nope . kelly : how am i supposed to tell her where things stand with jack when i do n't even know myself ? all i 'm getting are mixed signals . stitch : hey , join the club . kelly : i 'm so sorry . here i am complaining , and you 're going through exactly the same thing with victoria . stitch : as your brother , you have full permission to vent . kelly : thank you . god , it 's really hell , is n't it -- loving somebody so much and not knowing whether to stick it out or move on ? stitch : yeah . ashley : hi , there . hi , kelly . kelly : hi . ashley : so sorry to keep you waiting . victor : i 'm glad you 're finally interested in finding out what sharon may be hiding . nick : the only thing i 'm interested in is giving the woman i love some peace . victor : son , that 's what i 've been trying to do for you -- to make sure that you have some peace . but as long as you 're involved with that woman , you wo n't have any . nick : so , more dire warnings . victor : what does it take ? i mean , sharon herself has admitted that she has done something that would hurt you . she 's confessed to it . nick : yeah , to mariah , a woman you hired to pretend to be her dead daughter . victor : i hired her to protect you ! nick : i do n't need you to protect me . you should have been home , looking after mom . victor : she had plenty of protection . nick : well , where were you when she was using herself as bait to trap a psycho ? victor : well , that 's a different story . you heard about that ? nick : yeah , after the fact . meanwhile , you were out meddling in other people 's lives . it could have cost mom hers . victor : whoa , whoa . wait a minute . you 're overstating the danger your mother was in and you 're understating my efforts in trying to help you . have n't i taught you since your early adulthood that when you speak with me , you have to know your facts ? nick : there 's a difference between teaching and dictating . victor : and neither method seems to have worked for you . nick : that 's because i can think and act for myself . victor : no , son . you 're allowing sharon to make a fool out of you . mariah : so , did you get the memo ? ian , the guy i 'm hiding from , is behind bars . kevin : i know . so ? mariah : so , you can stop shadowing my every move . kevin : oh , mariah , dropping you off at work is the least i can do after kidnapping you from the coffeehouse yesterday . mariah : oh , no , no , no , no . the least you could have done is get separate rooms so i did n't have to hear your snoring all night . kevin : why do you think i took you to a motel outside of town ? mariah : sightseeing ? kevin : no . to keep you safe . how was i supposed to do that from a room down the hall ? mariah : if i had my choice , i would have taken my chances with my crazy cult- leader husband . kevin : you know , i must be crazy , because i was actually expecting a little gratitude . but i guess a `` thank you `` is too much to ask for saving you from getting back into a dangerous situation . austin : you 're in danger ? mariah : no . [ scoffs ] long story , and i really do n't want to get into it . austin : okay . mariah : what i want is to forget that last night ever happened . ashley : am i interrupting something ? stitch : no . uh , ready for our meeting ? ashley : i am . do the two of you need to continue your discussion ? kelly : no , no , no . it 's totally fine . my brother and i were just discussing this puzzle that i ca n't figure out . but looks like ben jumped right in and found the key . ashley : wow . well , it 's good to know you 're very good at problem - solving . it 's gon na come in handy with our new venture , right ? stitch : ashley and i are here to go over specifics about my job before we get in the lab . ashley : yeah . i thought it was safer to meet here at the club instead of the last place we had a meeting . we ended up in jail with our photos being splashed all over gc buzz , thank you very much . kelly : yeah . that was quite a night . ashley : thankfully , i think the press has lost interest in our arrests . that 's good , because there 's nothing worse than trying to launch a new product line and the only thing the press wants to talk about is your criminal record . kelly : you know what ? i - i 'm gon na let you guys talk , okay ? ashley : thanks . kelly : okay . ashley : hey , kelly ... that puzzle -- just so you know , my brother is working to figure it out , as well . jack : the doctors gave us very firm orders . phyllis : yes , that any undue stress might send me back to coma land . jack : exactly . phyllis : then stop stressing me out by being so careful with what you 're saying around me , like summer being afraid of telling me about austin . jack : it turns out that was a valid concern . phyllis : i had a perfectly normal reaction . jack : you went off on the guy like he was taking advantage of your little girl . phyllis : and you did n't when you first found out about that ? jack : i 'm pleading the fifth . phyllis : anyway ... austin and i have come to a mutual understanding . jack : really ? what does that mean ? phyllis : well , we were honest with one another . you could take an example from him . jack : i will do anything for you except knowingly endanger your health . phyllis : then do this . believe me . believe me when i tell you i am strong and ready to face things . tell me everything that i have missed and do not leave any details out , please . [ cell phone rings ] jack : hello ? kelly : jack , i need your help . jack : hold on just a second , okay ? i got to take this . this is business . phyllis : do n't think i will forget where we left off . jack : would n't even consider it . jack : hey . everything all right ? kelly : i misplaced a file for an event . i think it might be at , uh ... the house . could you take a look ? jack : i 'm at the hospital with phyllis . kelly : oh , i 'm sorry . i should n't have bothered you . jack : no , it 's not a bother . i - i just wanted you to know we 're gon na be here for a while if you want to go by the house to look for the file . kelly : yeah , i 'll do that . thanks . jack : kelly ? kelly : yes ? jack : i meant what i said in my message . nothing can erase our time together . kelly : i miss you . jack : i miss you , too . ashley : so , you 're more reserved than you usually are during our meetings . stitch : i am ? ashley : mm - hmm . usually by now you 've told me at least two horrible jokes . stitch : [ chuckles ] all right . um , sure . knock , knock . ashley : who 's there ? stitch : a guy trying to keep his head down doing his job so he does n't draw attention to himself or do anything to garner any negative publicity prior to the launch of his boss 's new perfume . ashley : [ laughing ] okay , stop . that 's by far the worst joke you 've ever told me . stitch : definitely . ashley : this is really about your police record , is n't it ? stitch : ashley , you , uh -- [ sighs ] you went out on a limb , hiring me after finding out about my past . ashley : can i tell you something ? stitch : what ? ashley : i 'm gon na share just a few details about my own experiences with law enforcement . stitch : okay . ashley : i 've been arrested for murder . and i actually ... went to prison for attempted murder . stitch : no way . ashley : yeah . i mean , i was innocent on both counts , just so you know . stitch : then why ... ? ashley : because i was trying to protect the people i love . i was trying to spare them from having to go to prison . stitch : i see . ashley : is there something else you want to know ? stitch : y -- ashley : what ? spit it out . stitch : [ chuckles ] if the people you took the rap for had n't come forward , would you have kept the truth to yourself ? ashley : absolutely . there 's nothing i would n't do to protect my family . phyllis : i 'm taking pity on you by not pestering you with questions . jack : i appreciate that . phyllis : ever since that phone call , you 've been very preoccupied . you know , if there 's something you have to handle at the office , please -- jack : no , no , no . i want to be here with you . phyllis : and i need to be in control of something in my life , so please go . do business . jack : will that make you happy ? phyllis : more than you could possibly imagine . jack : you 're that anxious to get rid of me , huh ? phyllis : that anxious to do something on my own . jack : okay , with one strict proviso -- the moment the tests are over , you call me . i come and get you . phyllis : sir , yes , sir . jack : okay . phyllis newman ? phyllis : yes , right here . hi . i 'm so sorry , ms . newman . we 're gon na have to reschedule your appointment . the neurologist just got pulled into an emergency with another patient . phyllis : oh . i 'm -- i 'm sorry to inconvenience you . phyllis : no , you did n't . there 's something i need to handle . now 's a perfect time . summer : i just feel really guilty for not telling my mom the truth about being married to austin . noah : i 'm sure you 're not the only one withholding information . has jack told phyllis about kelly ? summer : no , but he 's just following doctors ' orders . noah : i 'm not judging . i 'd be nervous , too . i mean , how do you tell the woman that you 're supposed to love that you moved another woman into her bed while she was away ? no matter how he tells phyllis ... she 's gon na go ballistic . summer : yeah . i just wish jack would have actually listened to me instead of giving up hope on my mom . noah : it had been a year -- no change since the accident . i ca n't blame him . summer : i can . if jack would have just held off on dating kelly and moving in with her , then my mom and dad would be as happy as austin and i are . austin : look , i 'm not asking about the sordid details . mariah : good , 'cause i 'm not talking about them . austin : just making sure you 're okay . mariah : i 'm great . drop it . austin : okay . well , then , you can sweep the floors . i was gon na do it , but since you 're great ... mariah : gee . thank you , austin . austin : that 's gratitude . i did n't know you were capable of expressing it . kevin 's gon na be sorry he missed that . what 's the deal with him being your bodyguard , by the way ? mariah : uh , what 's the deal with your new mother - in - law ? austin : she 's , uh ... great . mariah : wow . it 's that bad ? so , how did the infamous phyllis react to the news that you abducted her sister at gunpoint ? austin : we have n't told her yet . mariah : austin ! she 's going to find out . from what i know about this woman , she finds out everything . austin : that 's what i keep hearing . i 'm dreading the moment that she finds out . i do n't want her to hate me -- well , more than she already does . mariah : she hates you already ? austin : our first family meet - and - greet did n't go so well . mariah : you have got to stop caring about what people think about you . life is so much easier when you do n't give a crap . austin : yeah , 'cause you do n't care what other people think about you . mariah : no , i do n't . austin : if that 's true , you would n't have been in nick and sharon 's wedding . mariah : and look how well that turned out . it was a real happy family memory . madame isadora : what is it you 're hoping to get out of this , sharon ? sharon : well , psychics can help find lost items , right ? madame isadora : sometimes . sharon : okay . i need to regain a memory . i had electroconvulsive therapy , and the treatment erased a lot of my memories . madame isadora : for real ? sharon : yeah . it was definitely very real . and i 've tried hypnosis , but i did n't end up finding out what i need to know . madame isadora : and that is ... ? sharon : whether or not i 'll have a future with nick . madame isadora : i 'm a psychic , not a fortune - teller . i ca n't foresee details of how things will play out . sharon : oh . well , then -- madame isadora : i gain insight from a person 's energy . may i show you ? oh . sharon : what ? what is it ? madame isadora : guilt . sharon : guilt ? guilt about what -- about something that i did , about something to do with nick ? madame isadora : i tap in to what is radiating from your emotions , sharon , and right now i 'm picking up on an overwhelming feeling of anxiety . sharon : well , of course i 'm feeling anxious . i mean , a psychic just told me that i have something to feel guilty about . madame isadora : i never said you had cause to feel guilty , simply that i sense guilt around you -- or , to be more exact , pushing against you . sharon : okay . i do n't understand . madame isadora : it 's as if you 're a wall , or , more precisely , a dam that is straining to hold something back , and over time , cracks have begun to form . those cracks will eventually give way , and everything will come tumbling down . victor : are you sure you do n't want to know what sharon may be hiding ? nick : no , i do n't . victor : really ? phyllis : i 'm interrupting . victor : phyllis ! come in ! nick : hey . what are you doing here ? phyllis : i came to thank victor for getting me into the drug trial . if not for him , i 'd still be in a deep sleep . nick : i 'm so glad you 're doing well and that you 're back home . phyllis : me , too . nick : but i do n't think my father 's breach of ethics should be applauded . summer told me how you tricked her into giving you power of attorney . it 's just another example of you meddling in other people 's lives . victor : if i had n't been meddling , for your information , summer would still be talking to her comatose mother 's right hand . is that what you want ? nick : if you had just asked ... victor : if i had just asked , all kinds of people would have objected , most of all jack abbott , and phyllis would still have been in a coma . so , she has every reason to thank me . in fact , you should all thank me . nick : well , i 'm sure as hell not thanking you for trying to break up sharon and me . phyllis : some things never change . victor : [ sighs heavily ] you mean my son 's temper ? phyllis : well , that ... and you trying to run his life . victor : he 'll continue to make his own decisions ... bad ones , at that . but i think in this case , he 'll decide to throw sharon to the curb ... once he gets wind of ... what i need to know from you . kevin : hey , guys . summer : hey . kevin : summer , how 's your mom doing ? summer : she 's really good . she just got back from the hospital yesterday . noah : yeah . it 's amazing how fast she 's recovering . summer : yeah . i mean , aside from a few follow - up appointments , the doctors think she 's gon na be fine . kevin : i 'm happy to hear that . i 'm sure daniel is , too . when is he coming home ? summer : i do n't know . we 've all left him messages , but he 's still unreachable , thanks to my grandfather 's scheming . noah : oh , did you hear about grandma ? summer : what ? noah : apparently , she helped the police bust ian ward in some kind of undercover sting . summer : really ? wow . go , grandma . were you in on that ? kevin : well , not directly . i , um -- i did spend the night keeping mariah safe . summer : why ? kevin : well , you know , in case the bust went bad , i wanted to make sure she was out of harm 's way . noah : how is mariah ? kevin : she 's fine . she 's fine . she even went to work today . summer : wait . mariah 's at work right now ? kevin : she 's at work right now . i just dropped her off . summer : uh , you know , i have something i have to go do , so i 'm gon na talk to you later . noah : bye , summer . kevin : hey , give me a cup of coffee . noah : hey , kevin . kevin : yo . noah : so , uh , what 's up with you and my sister ? kevin : dude , i do n't know why she bolted out of here any more than you do . noah : no , not that sister . is , uh , there anything going on with you and mariah ? austin : look , maybe you do n't have experience with family stuff , but summer 's family 's tight , and it 's important that i get along with her folks . mariah : good luck with that . austin : well , i 'm gon na need it after how i blew things with phyllis . mariah : so , unblow it . austin : phyllis did give me a way to do that . mariah : so , do it . austin : i do n't think my wife will approve . mariah : why not ? if the whole family - unity thing is such a big deal -- austin : it is . it is , okay ? but so is summer being with her mom , and i do n't want to do something that could make her sick again . mariah : are you looking for advice or something ? austin : maybe . mariah : okay . well , would you speed it up ? i do n't have all day to decipher your code . customers are gon na be here soon . so , what 's the dilemma ? austin : okay . phyllis wants me to fill her in on everything she missed during her coma , but if i do that , then i 'd sell out summer 's dad , but if i do n't , then phyllis will hold it against me , so , either way , i make an enemy . it 's a no - win . mariah : i 've been there plenty . austin : advice ? mariah : give up . austin : that 's it ? mariah : i did n't say it was good advice . you 've got no choice , because no matter what you say or what you do , you 're gon na mess up with your wife or her dad or her mom , so you might as well give up . kelly : jack , i ... i thought you said that you and phyllis were n't gon na be here . jack : phyllis is still at the hospital . they 're running some tests . i - i thought maybe we could talk . kelly : you know what ? i , um -- i have to get back to work . we can talk another time , okay ? jack : kelly , i never meant to hurt you . kelly : but you are hurting me . every message , every apology -- it 's like a knife to my heart . sometimes i wish you would just tell me that nothing that we had was real so i could move on with my life -- put me out of my misery . jack : and the other times ? kelly : i never want you to let me go . jack : just days ago , i was spending the rest of my life with you . one minute , we 're planning a future together . the next ... kelly : phyllis walks in to that church . jack : what we had was real . it is real . my feelings have n't changed . i still love you . kelly : jack , you have to stop saying things like that . jack : it is true . kelly : please stop . every time you say something like that , it gives me hope -- hope that this will work out , hope that we will have a future together . and i cling to that hope with everything that 's in me because i am not ready for this to be over between us . jack : neither am i . kelly : jack , a miracle happened . phyllis woke up . she walked in to that church . she 's the woman that you fell in love with first . jack : that does n't mean -- kelly : jack , how am i supposed to compete with that , with her ? phyllis : you were always unwaveringly certain , supremely confident , you will control the outcome of any situation , business or personal . victor : and how is that a problem ? phyllis : well , human beings are the problem . they 're very unpredictable . how are you so certain that you will be able to change nick 's mind about sharon ? victor : it 's rather simple , to be honest with you . i 'm right about sharon -- have been all along . and you 're gon na help me prove it . you owe me that much . phyllis : so you keep saying . victor : i think a little information is a small price to pay for me helping you come back to life . phyllis : even if i did know what sharon was talking about , why would nick believe me ? victor : you and i know that there 's still a strong connection between you and nicholas . you raised a child together , so that creates a bond . sharon : i think you should go . madame isadora : [ blows ] people often only want to hear the good things . i would n't be doing my job if i did n't tell you everything that came across during the reading . [ blows ] beautiful girl . she 's no longer with you , is she ? sharon : no . she died years ago . madame isadora : but you still feel her energy . sharon : yes , of course -- all around me all the time . madame isadora : i 'm sensing something blue -- a piece of jewelry she gave you ? sharon : yes ! her twin sister -- she gave me an anklet , and it was blue . madame isadora : you should give it back . you wo n't be needing it anymore . sharon : why ? what does that mean ? i 'm not gon na marry nick ? nick : of course we 're getting married . why would you think that ? ashley : see , this is exactly what i was hoping for -- a nice walk in the park in the crisp fall air , getting our creative juices flowing . what do you think ? stitch : yeah , i guess . sure . ashley : you guess ? stitch : yeah . ashley : how can you not be inspired by this beautiful day -- the sun and the breeze ? stitch : yeah , and the smell . what is that ? oh , what is that -- rotting garbage ? ashley : that 's the new product i 'm working on for jabot . stitch : okay . please tell me you 're kidding me , right ? ashley : no . sniff for yourself . stitch : [ sniffs ] oh , my ... god ! ashley , that 's awful ! how can you wear that ? ! ashley : what are you saying ? stitch : it 's -- ashley : i really believe in this product . stitch : i hate to break it to you , but i think you 're gon na have a tough time selling that to anybody . ashley : well , i guess we 'll see . stitch : [ chuckling ] yeah . guess so . ashley : it 's a little chillier than i thought . stitch : here . do n't get that on my scarf , all right ? ashley : oh , thank you . that 's nice of you . ashley : mm . mm . whoa . stitch : okay . uh , i am ... [ chuckles ] i am so sorry . i - i do n't -- i do n't know why i just did that . ashley : i do . i 'm not just working on a fragrance . i 've actually -- i discovered a love potion . stitch : and that 's why i kissed you ? ashley : yeah . this is gon na revolutionize the industry . do you realize that ? stitch : a love potion ? ashley : mm - hmm . stitch : that is impossible . ashley : really ? stitch : yeah . ashley : why did you just kiss me ? okay . see ? okay . go over there . stitch : yeah . ashley : the fragrance has pheromones in it that actually make the wearer irresistible . the bad part is that the natural fragrance is , um , kind of pungent . stitch : okay . all right . so -- so , our job is to refine the aroma without affecting its natural properties ? ashley : yes . i 'm so happy you get this ! yes , because we have to make my fragrance smell as hypnotic as we both know it is . kevin : mariah and i are just friends , and that might even be an overstatement after last night . noah : oh , you mean after spending the night in a motel room together ? kevin : she definitely did n't appreciate my efforts to try and keep her safe . noah : who -- mariah ? oh , she loves being told what to do . and you add in that little prickly attitude of hers -- it just makes for a real pleasant evening . kevin : well , it was n't that bad . but , yeah , yeah , she can be a little antagonistic . noah : a little ? kevin : that 's just because people do n't understand her . and i know what that 's like . people do n't get me , either . everybody in this town thinks i 'm just a screw - up . noah : oh , kevin . i mean , you were for a little while -- a long while . kevin : right , but that does n't mean i 'm still that guy . noah : no . i think that you 've proven that . you 're cleaning up your act , working for the gcpd . kevin : it 's like i want people to know there 's more to me than my mistakes , and i think the same is true for mariah . noah : mariah is lucky to have a friend like you . kevin : yeah . well , try telling her that . i do n't think she 'd agree with you . mariah : that is always my first instinct in these situations -- run . when things start to tank in epic proportions , which they always seem to , i just pick up and go somewhere else . austin : that 's not an option . look , summer 's already missed out on a year with her mom . i 'm not gon na be the reason that she misses out on more time with her . mariah : well , that 's nice that you 're sticking with it . it 's a waste of time , but it 's nice . austin : i love summer , okay ? and i 'd do anything to make her happy ... which is why i 'd kind of appreciate it if we just kept this between us . i still need to think about everything . mariah : maybe if you tell summer , she might have -- austin : it 's just better if my wife does n't know about this . summer : if i do n't know about what ? victor : you know , summer was very troubled after your accident . phyllis : in what way ? victor : well , when you went into a coma , she had to deal with another rather shocking fact , namely that jack abbott was her father . we were all very concerned about her . she kept on spiraling downward . phyllis : she got married . victor : yeah . it was the last in the line of bad choices . phyllis : tell me more . victor : i 'll tell you more ... if you share with me what i want to know . phyllis : but when i share , it may not have a lot of basis in fact , victor . things are still garbled up in my mind . i do n't know what 's true and what 's coma vision . victor : well , i can help you along with that , but i think you know far more than you 're letting on . phyllis : you know , i , um , may have been out of it for a while , but i do remember that victor newman is only out for himself , and i have no doubt that you will use whatever i tell you at the expense of someone i care about , and i will not let that happen . victor : you 're right about one thing -- i never do anything without getting something in return ... and your resurrection is no exception . you have a nice day .

victor : kind of . nick : did you find what you were looking for ? victor : what do you think i was looking for ? nick : a way to get sharon out of my life for good . sharon : thank you so much for fitting me in , madame isadora . madame isadora : i got the feeling it was urgent . sharon : really ? you could pick up on that ? madame isadora : i did . also , i believe you said , `` it 's a matter of some urgency . `` sharon : oh . yeah . of course . madame isadora : where should i set up ? sharon : uh , does this work ? madame isadora : oh , certainly . sharon : you know , i have to tell you i 'm a bit of a skeptic . madame isadora : i knew that . more psychic humor . i 've got hundreds of 'em . sharon : [ sighs ] madame isadora : you 've asked me here , despite your skepticism . that 's interesting . sharon : yes . several people i know have used psychics in the past with great results . and besides that , at this point , i - i would be willing to do anything to keep from losing the man i love . noah : do you want me to get you something else with -- i do n't know -- taste or any nutritional value at all ? summer : no . i do n't think i can stomach much of anything right now . noah : summer , are you pregnant ? summer : really , noah ? noah : are you ? summer : no , i 'm not pregnant . why does everybody keep asking me that ? noah : because you 're eating plain toast and tea and you barely touched that . summer : i 'm just not hungry right now . i 'm worried about my mom . noah : good . no , not that you 're worried -- just i do n't think that anybody 's ready for you and austin to have kids yet , especially ... you and austin . summer : yeah . not my mom , for sure . she freaked when she found out that austin and i were engaged , and it only got worse when i actually let it drop that we 're actually married . noah : it is a little shocking . summer : why -- because i 'm 19 ? i 'm not 12 . my mom acts like i 'm still a kid completely incapable of making adult decisions on my own . noah : dad and jack -- they freaked out , too , remember ? summer : do i remember ? yes . they completely lost it . jack called the cops . noah : as soon as your mom has had some time to get used to it , she 'll come around . summer : my mother ? phyllis `` my way and only my way , so help me , god `` newman ? really ? you think so ? noah : uh ... look , a lot has changed since she 's been gone , okay ? things will smooth over as soon as she 's had time to process everything . phyllis : okay . you do n't have to stay , jack . jack : i do n't mind . phyllis : the doctors warned me these follow - up visits could take hours . jack : it 's why i cleared my schedule to be with you . phyllis : you did n't have to do that . you have a business to run . jack : nothing is more important than your health right now . phyllis : you know i love you , do n't you ? jack : i hear a `` but `` coming here . phyllis : but if you do n't stop treating me like i am made out of glass -- think about the worst fight we ever had . jack : ooh . that bad ? phyllis : yeah , that bad . so , please stop tiptoeing around me . jack : okay . phyllis : you know you can be honest with me ? jack : does that require an honest answer ? phyllis : jack . jack : i 'll try . phyllis : i do n't understand you . what are you trying to protect me from ? stitch : what did you lose ? kelly : ohh . besides my mind , the guest list for a halloween event . stitch : so print up another one . kelly : i ca n't . this was the client 's copy . it was handwritten with little yellow sticky notes on it . it was in a folder , and i must have put it down somewhere . i just do n't know where . stitch : kelly , kelly ... try to slow down . kelly : i ca n't . if i slow down , i will start to think about other things , and you know where that leads . stitch : all too well . kelly : on top of that , mom is lurking . stitch : and that ca n't be helping with your stress level . kelly : no ! the woman -- she just knows how to push my buttons . does she ever stop asking questions ? stitch : nope . kelly : how am i supposed to tell her where things stand with jack when i do n't even know myself ? all i 'm getting are mixed signals . stitch : hey , join the club . kelly : i 'm so sorry . here i am complaining , and you 're going through exactly the same thing with victoria . stitch : as your brother , you have full permission to vent . kelly : thank you . god , it 's really hell , is n't it -- loving somebody so much and not knowing whether to stick it out or move on ? stitch : yeah . ashley : hi , there . hi , kelly . kelly : hi . ashley : so sorry to keep you waiting . victor : i 'm glad you 're finally interested in finding out what sharon may be hiding . nick : the only thing i 'm interested in is giving the woman i love some peace . victor : son , that 's what i 've been trying to do for you -- to make sure that you have some peace . but as long as you 're involved with that woman , you wo n't have any . nick : so , more dire warnings . victor : what does it take ? i mean , sharon herself has admitted that she has done something that would hurt you . she 's confessed to it . nick : yeah , to mariah , a woman you hired to pretend to be her dead daughter . victor : i hired her to protect you ! nick : i do n't need you to protect me . you should have been home , looking after mom . victor : she had plenty of protection . nick : well , where were you when she was using herself as bait to trap a psycho ? victor : well , that 's a different story . you heard about that ? nick : yeah , after the fact . meanwhile , you were out meddling in other people 's lives . it could have cost mom hers . victor : whoa , whoa . wait a minute . you 're overstating the danger your mother was in and you 're understating my efforts in trying to help you . have n't i taught you since your early adulthood that when you speak with me , you have to know your facts ? nick : there 's a difference between teaching and dictating . victor : and neither method seems to have worked for you . nick : that 's because i can think and act for myself . victor : no , son . you 're allowing sharon to make a fool out of you . mariah : so , did you get the memo ? ian , the guy i 'm hiding from , is behind bars . kevin : i know . so ? mariah : so , you can stop shadowing my every move . kevin : oh , mariah , dropping you off at work is the least i can do after kidnapping you from the coffeehouse yesterday . mariah : oh , no , no , no , no . the least you could have done is get separate rooms so i did n't have to hear your snoring all night . kevin : why do you think i took you to a motel outside of town ? mariah : sightseeing ? kevin : no . to keep you safe . how was i supposed to do that from a room down the hall ? mariah : if i had my choice , i would have taken my chances with my crazy cult- leader husband . kevin : you know , i must be crazy , because i was actually expecting a little gratitude . but i guess a `` thank you `` is too much to ask for saving you from getting back into a dangerous situation . austin : you 're in danger ? mariah : no . [ scoffs ] long story , and i really do n't want to get into it . austin : okay . mariah : what i want is to forget that last night ever happened . ashley : am i interrupting something ? stitch : no . uh , ready for our meeting ? ashley : i am . do the two of you need to continue your discussion ? kelly : no , no , no . it 's totally fine . my brother and i were just discussing this puzzle that i ca n't figure out . but looks like ben jumped right in and found the key . ashley : wow . well , it 's good to know you 're very good at problem - solving . it 's gon na come in handy with our new venture , right ? stitch : ashley and i are here to go over specifics about my job before we get in the lab . ashley : yeah . i thought it was safer to meet here at the club instead of the last place we had a meeting . we ended up in jail with our photos being splashed all over gc buzz , thank you very much . kelly : yeah . that was quite a night . ashley : thankfully , i think the press has lost interest in our arrests . that 's good , because there 's nothing worse than trying to launch a new product line and the only thing the press wants to talk about is your criminal record . kelly : you know what ? i - i 'm gon na let you guys talk , okay ? ashley : thanks . kelly : okay . ashley : hey , kelly ... that puzzle -- just so you know , my brother is working to figure it out , as well . jack : the doctors gave us very firm orders . phyllis : yes , that any undue stress might send me back to coma land . jack : exactly . phyllis : then stop stressing me out by being so careful with what you 're saying around me , like summer being afraid of telling me about austin . jack : it turns out that was a valid concern . phyllis : i had a perfectly normal reaction . jack : you went off on the guy like he was taking advantage of your little girl . phyllis : and you did n't when you first found out about that ? jack : i 'm pleading the fifth . phyllis : anyway ... austin and i have come to a mutual understanding . jack : really ? what does that mean ? phyllis : well , we were honest with one another . you could take an example from him . jack : i will do anything for you except knowingly endanger your health . phyllis : then do this . believe me . believe me when i tell you i am strong and ready to face things . tell me everything that i have missed and do not leave any details out , please . [ cell phone rings ] jack : hello ? kelly : jack , i need your help . jack : hold on just a second , okay ? i got to take this . this is business . phyllis : do n't think i will forget where we left off . jack : would n't even consider it . jack : hey . everything all right ? kelly : i misplaced a file for an event . i think it might be at , uh ... the house . could you take a look ? jack : i 'm at the hospital with phyllis . kelly : oh , i 'm sorry . i should n't have bothered you . jack : no , it 's not a bother . i - i just wanted you to know we 're gon na be here for a while if you want to go by the house to look for the file . kelly : yeah , i 'll do that . thanks . jack : kelly ? kelly : yes ? jack : i meant what i said in my message . nothing can erase our time together . kelly : i miss you . jack : i miss you , too . ashley : so , you 're more reserved than you usually are during our meetings . stitch : i am ? ashley : mm - hmm . usually by now you 've told me at least two horrible jokes . stitch : [ chuckles ] all right . um , sure . knock , knock . ashley : who 's there ? stitch : a guy trying to keep his head down doing his job so he does n't draw attention to himself or do anything to garner any negative publicity prior to the launch of his boss 's new perfume . ashley : [ laughing ] okay , stop . that 's by far the worst joke you 've ever told me . stitch : definitely . ashley : this is really about your police record , is n't it ? stitch : ashley , you , uh -- [ sighs ] you went out on a limb , hiring me after finding out about my past . ashley : can i tell you something ? stitch : what ? ashley : i 'm gon na share just a few details about my own experiences with law enforcement . stitch : okay . ashley : i 've been arrested for murder . and i actually ... went to prison for attempted murder . stitch : no way . ashley : yeah . i mean , i was innocent on both counts , just so you know . stitch : then why ... ? ashley : because i was trying to protect the people i love . i was trying to spare them from having to go to prison . stitch : i see . ashley : is there something else you want to know ? stitch : y -- ashley : what ? spit it out . stitch : [ chuckles ] if the people you took the rap for had n't come forward , would you have kept the truth to yourself ? ashley : absolutely . there 's nothing i would n't do to protect my family . phyllis : i 'm taking pity on you by not pestering you with questions . jack : i appreciate that . phyllis : ever since that phone call , you 've been very preoccupied . you know , if there 's something you have to handle at the office , please -- jack : no , no , no . i want to be here with you . phyllis : and i need to be in control of something in my life , so please go . do business . jack : will that make you happy ? phyllis : more than you could possibly imagine . jack : you 're that anxious to get rid of me , huh ? phyllis : that anxious to do something on my own . jack : okay , with one strict proviso -- the moment the tests are over , you call me . i come and get you . phyllis : sir , yes , sir . jack : okay . phyllis newman ? phyllis : yes , right here . hi . i 'm so sorry , ms . newman . we 're gon na have to reschedule your appointment . the neurologist just got pulled into an emergency with another patient . phyllis : oh . i 'm -- i 'm sorry to inconvenience you . phyllis : no , you did n't . there 's something i need to handle . now 's a perfect time . summer : i just feel really guilty for not telling my mom the truth about being married to austin . noah : i 'm sure you 're not the only one withholding information . has jack told phyllis about kelly ? summer : no , but he 's just following doctors ' orders . noah : i 'm not judging . i 'd be nervous , too . i mean , how do you tell the woman that you 're supposed to love that you moved another woman into her bed while she was away ? no matter how he tells phyllis ... she 's gon na go ballistic . summer : yeah . i just wish jack would have actually listened to me instead of giving up hope on my mom . noah : it had been a year -- no change since the accident . i ca n't blame him . summer : i can . if jack would have just held off on dating kelly and moving in with her , then my mom and dad would be as happy as austin and i are . austin : look , i 'm not asking about the sordid details . mariah : good , 'cause i 'm not talking about them . austin : just making sure you 're okay . mariah : i 'm great . drop it . austin : okay . well , then , you can sweep the floors . i was gon na do it , but since you 're great ... mariah : gee . thank you , austin . austin : that 's gratitude . i did n't know you were capable of expressing it . kevin 's gon na be sorry he missed that . what 's the deal with him being your bodyguard , by the way ? mariah : uh , what 's the deal with your new mother - in - law ? austin : she 's , uh ... great . mariah : wow . it 's that bad ? so , how did the infamous phyllis react to the news that you abducted her sister at gunpoint ? austin : we have n't told her yet . mariah : austin ! she 's going to find out . from what i know about this woman , she finds out everything . austin : that 's what i keep hearing . i 'm dreading the moment that she finds out . i do n't want her to hate me -- well , more than she already does . mariah : she hates you already ? austin : our first family meet - and - greet did n't go so well . mariah : you have got to stop caring about what people think about you . life is so much easier when you do n't give a crap . austin : yeah , 'cause you do n't care what other people think about you . mariah : no , i do n't . austin : if that 's true , you would n't have been in nick and sharon 's wedding . mariah : and look how well that turned out . it was a real happy family memory . madame isadora : what is it you 're hoping to get out of this , sharon ? sharon : well , psychics can help find lost items , right ? madame isadora : sometimes . sharon : okay . i need to regain a memory . i had electroconvulsive therapy , and the treatment erased a lot of my memories . madame isadora : for real ? sharon : yeah . it was definitely very real . and i 've tried hypnosis , but i did n't end up finding out what i need to know . madame isadora : and that is ... ? sharon : whether or not i 'll have a future with nick . madame isadora : i 'm a psychic , not a fortune - teller . i ca n't foresee details of how things will play out . sharon : oh . well , then -- madame isadora : i gain insight from a person 's energy . may i show you ? oh . sharon : what ? what is it ? madame isadora : guilt . sharon : guilt ? guilt about what -- about something that i did , about something to do with nick ? madame isadora : i tap in to what is radiating from your emotions , sharon , and right now i 'm picking up on an overwhelming feeling of anxiety . sharon : well , of course i 'm feeling anxious . i mean , a psychic just told me that i have something to feel guilty about . madame isadora : i never said you had cause to feel guilty , simply that i sense guilt around you -- or , to be more exact , pushing against you . sharon : okay . i do n't understand . madame isadora : it 's as if you 're a wall , or , more precisely , a dam that is straining to hold something back , and over time , cracks have begun to form . those cracks will eventually give way , and everything will come tumbling down . victor : are you sure you do n't want to know what sharon may be hiding ? nick : no , i do n't . victor : really ? phyllis : i 'm interrupting . victor : phyllis ! come in ! nick : hey . what are you doing here ? phyllis : i came to thank victor for getting me into the drug trial . if not for him , i 'd still be in a deep sleep . nick : i 'm so glad you 're doing well and that you 're back home . phyllis : me , too . nick : but i do n't think my father 's breach of ethics should be applauded . summer told me how you tricked her into giving you power of attorney . it 's just another example of you meddling in other people 's lives . victor : if i had n't been meddling , for your information , summer would still be talking to her comatose mother 's right hand . is that what you want ? nick : if you had just asked ... victor : if i had just asked , all kinds of people would have objected , most of all jack abbott , and phyllis would still have been in a coma . so , she has every reason to thank me . in fact , you should all thank me . nick : well , i 'm sure as hell not thanking you for trying to break up sharon and me . phyllis : some things never change . victor : [ sighs heavily ] you mean my son 's temper ? phyllis : well , that ... and you trying to run his life . victor : he 'll continue to make his own decisions ... bad ones , at that . but i think in this case , he 'll decide to throw sharon to the curb ... once he gets wind of ... what i need to know from you . kevin : hey , guys . summer : hey . kevin : summer , how 's your mom doing ? summer : she 's really good . she just got back from the hospital yesterday . noah : yeah . it 's amazing how fast she 's recovering . summer : yeah . i mean , aside from a few follow - up appointments , the doctors think she 's gon na be fine . kevin : i 'm happy to hear that . i 'm sure daniel is , too . when is he coming home ? summer : i do n't know . we 've all left him messages , but he 's still unreachable , thanks to my grandfather 's scheming . noah : oh , did you hear about grandma ? summer : what ? noah : apparently , she helped the police bust ian ward in some kind of undercover sting . summer : really ? wow . go , grandma . were you in on that ? kevin : well , not directly . i , um -- i did spend the night keeping mariah safe . summer : why ? kevin : well , you know , in case the bust went bad , i wanted to make sure she was out of harm 's way . noah : how is mariah ? kevin : she 's fine . she 's fine . she even went to work today . summer : wait . mariah 's at work right now ? kevin : she 's at work right now . i just dropped her off . summer : uh , you know , i have something i have to go do , so i 'm gon na talk to you later . noah : bye , summer . kevin : hey , give me a cup of coffee . noah : hey , kevin . kevin : yo . noah : so , uh , what 's up with you and my sister ? kevin : dude , i do n't know why she bolted out of here any more than you do . noah : no , not that sister . is , uh , there anything going on with you and mariah ? austin : look , maybe you do n't have experience with family stuff , but summer 's family 's tight , and it 's important that i get along with her folks . mariah : good luck with that . austin : well , i 'm gon na need it after how i blew things with phyllis . mariah : so , unblow it . austin : phyllis did give me a way to do that . mariah : so , do it . austin : i do n't think my wife will approve . mariah : why not ? if the whole family - unity thing is such a big deal -- austin : it is . it is , okay ? but so is summer being with her mom , and i do n't want to do something that could make her sick again . mariah : are you looking for advice or something ? austin : maybe . mariah : okay . well , would you speed it up ? i do n't have all day to decipher your code . customers are gon na be here soon . so , what 's the dilemma ? austin : okay . phyllis wants me to fill her in on everything she missed during her coma , but if i do that , then i 'd sell out summer 's dad , but if i do n't , then phyllis will hold it against me , so , either way , i make an enemy . it 's a no - win . mariah : i 've been there plenty . austin : advice ? mariah : give up . austin : that 's it ? mariah : i did n't say it was good advice . you 've got no choice , because no matter what you say or what you do , you 're gon na mess up with your wife or her dad or her mom , so you might as well give up . kelly : jack , i ... i thought you said that you and phyllis were n't gon na be here . jack : phyllis is still at the hospital . they 're running some tests . i - i thought maybe we could talk . kelly : you know what ? i , um -- i have to get back to work . we can talk another time , okay ? jack : kelly , i never meant to hurt you . kelly : but you are hurting me . every message , every apology -- it 's like a knife to my heart . sometimes i wish you would just tell me that nothing that we had was real so i could move on with my life -- put me out of my misery . jack : and the other times ? kelly : i never want you to let me go . jack : just days ago , i was spending the rest of my life with you . one minute , we 're planning a future together . the next ... kelly : phyllis walks in to that church . jack : what we had was real . it is real . my feelings have n't changed . i still love you . kelly : jack , you have to stop saying things like that . jack : it is true . kelly : please stop . every time you say something like that , it gives me hope -- hope that this will work out , hope that we will have a future together . and i cling to that hope with everything that 's in me because i am not ready for this to be over between us . jack : neither am i . kelly : jack , a miracle happened . phyllis woke up . she walked in to that church . she 's the woman that you fell in love with first . jack : that does n't mean -- kelly : jack , how am i supposed to compete with that , with her ? phyllis : you were always unwaveringly certain , supremely confident , you will control the outcome of any situation , business or personal . victor : and how is that a problem ? phyllis : well , human beings are the problem . they 're very unpredictable . how are you so certain that you will be able to change nick 's mind about sharon ? victor : it 's rather simple , to be honest with you . i 'm right about sharon -- have been all along . and you 're gon na help me prove it . you owe me that much . phyllis : so you keep saying . victor : i think a little information is a small price to pay for me helping you come back to life . phyllis : even if i did know what sharon was talking about , why would nick believe me ?

( camera shutters click ) bill : katie , would you come up here , please ? katie : thank you . thank you very much . i will forgo any opening statement . i 'm sure you all have questions , and i 'm here to answer them . jarrett . jarrett : yeah , uh , firstly , congratulations , katie . katie : thank you . jarrett : i assume that this honor has been bestowed on you because of your brilliant p.r . campaign for the royalty line . katie : well , the royalty line was a success , uh , in part to my p.r . campaign , but really largely due to the beautiful designs from ridge and eric . their creativity and their artistry has been the bedrock of this company 's success , and it will be in the future . woman : can i ask about that ring on your finger , katie ? you were n't wearing it the last time you met with the press . katie : ( chuckles ) um -- bill : katie and i are engaged to be married , and , no , that is not why she was appointed c.e.o . katie is an exceptional talent , and i have no doubt that she is going to lead forrester into a very bright future . katie : my fiancé 's confidence in me is very flattering , but the major players who will lead forrester into the future are standing right here in this room -- ridge , eric , my sisters donna and brooke , all of us . woman : if that 's the case , it 's surprising that either ridge or eric was n't named c.e.o . why were you chosen in preference to one of them ? they certainly have the experience which , with all due respect , katie , you do n't .

[ scene_break ] eric : this is not what we signed up for , katie . katie : eric , i said what i needed to say as c.e.o . do n't make this any more difficult than it has to be . donna : ( scoffs ) honey , you promised us you 'd side with the family . katie : was i supposed to reveal that to the press ? ridge : so you lied to them . is that what it is ? katie : i put a spin on things . ridge : a spin . interesting , katie . we either control this company or we do n't . eric : who is in control here , katie ? you led us to believe that we would be . katie : for the most part , you are . brooke : for the most part ? katie : we all work for bill . he owns the company . ridge : well , katie , you know what you 've done here today ? you 've told the whole world that this company , our traditions , our image in this industry -- that it means absolutely nothing . all we are is bill spencer 's puppets . well , i for one , i 'm not answering to anybody . bill : not even little old me ? why , that hurts my feelings . i believe you all signed contracts , did n't you ? yeah . yeah , you did . uh , lucrative , multi - year , ironclad deals . you work for me . is that clear ? it should be clear . eric : we work for no one but ourselves . that needs to be clear to you , bill . otherwise , you can find yourself a new design team . bill : hmm . and where would you go , eric ... katie : ( sighs ) bill : you and ridge ? would you seek other employment ? because if that were the case , well , i would , uh , have to file an injunction , and you would be enjoined from working anywhere in this industry for the length of your contracts , and that 's a long time . so i would think it would be a better idea for you to go back to your offices and do what you do best -- come up with the best line this company has ever seen . you are very talented men , and i respect that . now if you think you can just walk away because you do n't like being spencer employees ... ( sighs ) you 're going to regret that . brooke : you said that you would stand up for us , and you would be loyal , and we would have artistic freedom , and forrester would maintain its class and its excellence , and above all , its independence . but i can see that 's not going to be like that . we 're your sisters . we 're your family , katie . and you made us a promise . what are you gon na do now ? just stab us in the back . i 'm gon na give you one last chance . at the end of the day , who are you going to be loyal to -- him or your family ?Summarize.[/INST]owen is so excited and ca n't praise jackie enough for changing her mind and now also wanting to have a child . she feigns interest for owen 's sake , but is cringing inside when he brings it up so often . nick tells bridget about his mom 's dilemma . he just feels like slapping owen around for nagging jackie about this . ridge tells eric that all the reporters are in the building . he also reveals that bill and katie are now engaged . brooke reminds katie the promise she made they run the company , she takes the lead . forrester 's holds a press conference with both bill and katie speaking . it does n't go unnoticed that katie is wearing a huge ring . a reporter asks why eric and ridge were passed over for ceo in favor of katie who has no experience in that area .</s> | 5,731 |

[ scene_break ] lucas : you know what , chloe ? i think they need to run some more tests on you . i think your brain has finally turned to mush . you 're talking to god , and now my mom is poisoning you too ? chloe : she knew about the affair . lucas : it does n't matter ! it does n't make her a killer . chloe : lucas , every time i got sick , kate was there . she is the one who gave me the apple , the only thing that i 'd eaten that day , and i got sick . remember ? she 's the one who provided all the food for the show that we were using , and every time i ate something , i got sick ! lucas : daniel sent those apples -- he 's the one who gave them to you . chloe : anything i ate , any food , it came from trays provided by kate . do n't you see ? chloe : has it hit you yet that the police have a ton of evidence against daniel ? he wrote out the prescription . the damn drug was found in his apartment ! chloe : oh , and your mother is not smart enough , not devious enough to plant evidence ? lucas : she would n't go that far -- she would n't do that . chloe : come on , it makes a hell of a lot more sense than daniel trying to kill me . he loves me , and i love him , all right ? we were planning -- oh , my god . lucas : what ? chloe : i 've been awake for a while now . why is n't daniel here ? lucas : i do n't know ! who cares ? who cares where he is ? maybe he left town because he knows for a fact he 's got ta stand trial tomorrow . chloe : no , what if kate got to him too ? [ scene_break ] stefano : you know , katherine , i 'm not only flattered that you came to me for help , but in a strange sort of way , i 'm ... deeply moved . because the last time we talked , whoo ! you were so terribly angry at me . kate : yeah . just because you ordered my son to be murdered ? how petty of me . stefano : mm . you know that my dealings with the kiriakis family is not something that i can discuss . and surely , you must realize that having lived with victor . kate : what about your dealings with me ? stefano : none of victor 's business . kate : good . stefano : you know ... [ drumming on table ] look at this here . we have a very interesting setup on this table . kate : yes , i know , i know . but time is running out for me , and frankly , things could get a lot worse very quickly . are you going to help me or are you not ? stefano : of course . i should think that goes without saying . but you must realize that there 's going to be a price , naturally . kate : price ? stefano : a non - negotiable price . are you willing to agree to those terms ? hmm ? ho ho ho ho . [ laughing ] will you look at that ? [ laughs ] kate : what ? stefano : the queen . i captured her . [ scene_break ] lucas : so not only did my mom try to kill you , but she 's going after your boyfriend too . wow , chloe , that 's amazing ! chloe : i 'm just afraid that something 's happened to him . lucas : you know what , i 'm sick of talking about this . i do n't wan na discuss this with you anymore ! you and your dumb fantasies about this . you want me to tell you how it 's gon na play out ? i 'll tell you -- when the police -- chloe : lucas -- lucas : and not if ... but when the police arrest daniel -- and they will arrest him , again -- he 's gon na go to jail for attempted murder . chloe : but he 's innocent ! lucas : really , is he ? and you know what ? the d.a . 's gon na stick to their guns . you know why ? because they have all the evidence they need -- the prescription he wrote , the drugs in his apartment , and the phone call you made to maggie . chloe : what phone call ? lucas : you called maggie . you called maggie before you were drugged , before the taping of the show , and you asked for help . you said that daniel was threatening you . chloe : that never happened ! lucas : oh , really , so now you 're calling maggie a liar too . chloe : no , lucas , i 'm just saying whatever she thought she heard , it -- it -- that 's crazy , all right ? i was n't afraid . in fact , i was absolutely mean to daniel that day when we were gon na tape the show because i was trying to hide how i truly felt . and i was trying to focus on you and just you and trying to make things work for us . lucas : well , that paid off , did n't it ? that turned out great . chloe : oh , lucas ... i ca n't tell you how truly sorry i am , all right ? but in the end , i ... i gave in to my true feelings . lucas : well , you know what ? i 'm gon na follow my true feelings too . i mean , i know we do n't have a future together . i know there 's no chance of that . but i 'm gon na make sure you and daniel do n't either . he 's gon na spend the rest of his life in prison . chloe : no , you ca n't do that ! daniel did n't do anything wrong !

judge : the state finds several reasons that are grounds for an annulment . you must prove that those reasons existed at the time of your marriage . questions ? jonathan : no . judge : mrs. randall ? all right , the reason you 're asking for this annulment is mr. randall 's refusal to consummate the marriage , correct ? jonathan : well , the marriage was n't even real in the first place . i mean , we were getting threatened by her grandfather . lizzie ? judge : look , if there 's something that you do n't understand , some questions that ... lizzie : no , i understand . can i say something ? judge : of course . lizzie : when i first got pregnant , everything was so confusing . one minute i knew exactly what i wanted , and the next it changed , and i wanted something else . judge : that 's understandable . lizzie : but he always wanted her . that 's why he would n't sleep with me . he said his vows to me , but he meant them for her , his own cousin . are n't there some rules against that ? jonathan : lizzie , stop . lizzie : the first time they did it , he did n't even tell her that he was her cousin . how sick is that ? how messed up is that ? they want everyone to think that it 's okay that they 're together , but it 's not ! it is sick , sick , and in some states illegal . and now they want to rip my baby from my arms and just make this whole marriage just disappear , just make me disappear . and they want you to put your big , fat stamp of approval on it . you ca n't let them do this . it is wrong . everything about it is wrong . judge : i thought you both agreed to this annulment . jonathan : i think she wants you to think that i 'm a bad person . she 's right , kind of . i was . when i first got here , i was selling drugs . you can ask her . she should know . she was the one buying them . i mean , the only reason i came to this town in the first place was to get back at my mom for the crappy life i had , because she gave me up for adoption . tammy was the best part of the family , and i thought , what better way to get back at mom than to ruin the best one in the worst way ? everyone hated me for that , not just my family . but my mom stuck by me . i mean , the only reason i did the whole thing was to hurt her , and she was the one who wanted to give me a second chance . she was the last person i expected to ... well , you know , next to last . tammy saw something in me that she thought was worth saving , and i just wanted her to go the hell away . then there was the fire . lizzie : the first fire . jonathan : yeah , there was a few fires . i 'm not saying that it changed me , but there was something in me that wanted to save her . and i thought maybe whatever it was , it was what she was looking for in me . lizzie : fade in the violins . judge : let him speak . jonathan : you ... like , what happened next ? huh . my dad came to town . he moved here . he 's ... adoptive dad . he 's a jerk , mean guy . and he just could n't accept that i did n't want to be like him , you know , some deadbeat who hits his wife . tammy : and his son . jonathan : you can find all this in the police reports . he died in a boating accident . he deserved it , too . he went for her , i went for him . tammy : take my hand , come on . take my hand and this is over . you 're free . leave him . come with me . jonathan : and tammy was going to marry a guy who was almost as bad as my dad . lizzie : then fate threw them together . spare me . jonathan : i ca n't promise you much of anything , except this -- you will be the most important person in the world to me . number one . the only one . lizzie : who are we here for , you and her , or you and me ? jonathan : lizzie , there is no you and me . we decided it was going to be us long before you were involved . it 's not a big secret . lizzie : can we skip ahead ? her groom went off a cliff , and then they broke up , and then made up , and then broke up , and then made up , and then broke up , and now jonathan and i have a child , a family . jonathan : lizzie , it was one night . it was months before we got married . it was a mistake . the only good thing that came out of it was sarah . i mean , having to fight with her psycho grandfather , the marriage that we had to throw together to protect our child , everything that happened in your courtroom before sarah was even born ... lizzie : it was n't worth it ? jonathan : it was worth it , for sarah . but judge , tammy and i never would have broken up if we did n't think it was the best thing for the kid , and now we realize that it 's not . lizzie : you two do n't get to decide that ! jonathan : no , he does . bottom line , i love tammy . i will always put my daughter first . lizzie : i should have brought popcorn . judge : this case is a little more complicated than you led me to believe . jonathan : sorry , i did n't want it to be . lizzie : that 's my fault . could you take a little bit of responsibility , jonathan ? judge : i 'm going to have to consider all of this . jonathan : you ca n't just decide right now ? judge : well , the only thing i can promise you is , you 'll hear from me . what 's wrong , what 's right the answer is , nobody knows how long do we hide the secret dying to be told i 'm not afraid of what anybody has to say i say it 's our time can you love me will you love me with the lights on yeah , when the lights are on let the world see hey , let our love be strong and if everyone is watching us let them watch , let them talk just believe what we need is what we are we are we are we are we are .

judge : i 'm sorry . jonathan : oh , come on . look , just ... she 's going to be here . she knows that she has to ... judge : well , we were about to give up on you . shall we get started ? now , there are a few things i want you to understand before we begin . now , if your marriage was wrongly entered into , the state has no reason of prolonging it . but in order to grant you an annulment , i must declare your marriage invalid . jonathan : and how does that work ? judge : the state finds several reasons that are grounds for an annulment . you must prove that those reasons existed at the time of your marriage . questions ? jonathan : no . judge : mrs. randall ? all right , the reason you 're asking for this annulment is mr. randall 's refusal to consummate the marriage , correct ? jonathan : well , the marriage was n't even real in the first place . i mean , we were getting threatened by her grandfather . lizzie ? judge : look , if there 's something that you do n't understand , some questions that ... lizzie : no , i understand . can i say something ? judge : of course . lizzie : when i first got pregnant , everything was so confusing . one minute i knew exactly what i wanted , and the next it changed , and i wanted something else . judge : that 's understandable . lizzie : but he always wanted her . that 's why he would n't sleep with me . he said his vows to me , but he meant them for her , his own cousin . are n't there some rules against that ? jonathan : lizzie , stop . lizzie : the first time they did it , he did n't even tell her that he was her cousin . how sick is that ? how messed up is that ? they want everyone to think that it 's okay that they 're together , but it 's not ! it is sick , sick , and in some states illegal . and now they want to rip my baby from my arms and just make this whole marriage just disappear , just make me disappear . and they want you to put your big , fat stamp of approval on it . you ca n't let them do this . it is wrong . everything about it is wrong . judge : i thought you both agreed to this annulment . jonathan : i think she wants you to think that i 'm a bad person . she 's right , kind of . i was . when i first got here , i was selling drugs . you can ask her . she should know . she was the one buying them . i mean , the only reason i came to this town in the first place was to get back at my mom for the crappy life i had , because she gave me up for adoption . tammy was the best part of the family , and i thought , what better way to get back at mom than to ruin the best one in the worst way ? everyone hated me for that , not just my family . but my mom stuck by me . i mean , the only reason i did the whole thing was to hurt her , and she was the one who wanted to give me a second chance . she was the last person i expected to ... well , you know , next to last . tammy saw something in me that she thought was worth saving , and i just wanted her to go the hell away . then there was the fire . lizzie : the first fire . jonathan : yeah , there was a few fires . i 'm not saying that it changed me , but there was something in me that wanted to save her . and i thought maybe whatever it was , it was what she was looking for in me . lizzie : fade in the violins . judge : let him speak . jonathan : you ... like , what happened next ? huh . my dad came to town . he moved here . he 's ... adoptive dad . he 's a jerk , mean guy . and he just could n't accept that i did n't want to be like him , you know , some deadbeat who hits his wife . tammy : and his son . jonathan : you can find all this in the police reports . he died in a boating accident . he deserved it , too . he went for her , i went for him . tammy : take my hand , come on . take my hand and this is over . you 're free . leave him . come with me . jonathan : and tammy was going to marry a guy who was almost as bad as my dad . lizzie : then fate threw them together . spare me . jonathan : i ca n't promise you much of anything , except this -- you will be the most important person in the world to me . number one . the only one . lizzie : who are we here for , you and her , or you and me ? jonathan : lizzie , there is no you and me . we decided it was going to be us long before you were involved . it 's not a big secret . lizzie : can we skip ahead ? her groom went off a cliff , and then they broke up , and then made up , and then broke up , and then made up , and then broke up , and now jonathan and i have a child , a family . jonathan : lizzie , it was one night . it was months before we got married . it was a mistake . the only good thing that came out of it was sarah . i mean , having to fight with her psycho grandfather , the marriage that we had to throw together to protect our child , everything that happened in your courtroom before sarah was even born ... lizzie : it was n't worth it ? jonathan : it was worth it , for sarah . but judge , tammy and i never would have broken up if we did n't think it was the best thing for the kid , and now we realize that it 's not . lizzie : you two do n't get to decide that ! jonathan : no , he does . bottom line , i love tammy . i will always put my daughter first . lizzie : i should have brought popcorn . judge : this case is a little more complicated than you led me to believe . jonathan : sorry , i did n't want it to be . lizzie : that 's my fault . could you take a little bit of responsibility , jonathan ? judge : i 'm going to have to consider all of this . jonathan : you ca n't just decide right now ? judge : well , the only thing i can promise you is , you 'll hear from me . what 's wrong , what 's right the answer is , nobody knows how long do we hide the secret dying to be told i 'm not afraid of what anybody has to say i say it 's our time can you love me will you love me with the lights on yeah , when the lights are on let the world see hey , let our love be strong and if everyone is watching us let them watch , let them talk just believe what we need is what we are we are we are we are we are .

[ laughs ] patrick : really ? elizabeth : wow , a duet . patrick : well , maybe the dynamic duo should get together and sing again at the reception . how 's that ? sam : that 's good . what do you say , jake ? can we do that ? elizabeth : no , i do n't think so . jason : mm . yeah , the only person i 'll be singing and dancing with is you .

[ scene_break ] jason : why would you even want to come to my wedding ? hayden : because it sounded like fun . and because nikolas asked me . he and elizabeth are best , best friends . he wants to be there to support her , and i 'm going to support him . jason : no . your presence there would be completely inappropriate . i 'm sorry . you 're not welcome . sam : yeah , um , after all , you did scam jake by pretending -- hayden : pretending to be his wife , yeah . i heard . and what did i get for my deceit ? a bullet in the head . jason : yeah , a bullet that was meant for me , so why would you want to go to the wedding of the guy who got you shot ? this makes no sense . hayden : it 's not like you pulled the trigger . and besides the point you all seem to be missing is that i did lose my memory , so as far as i 'm concerned , jake , you and i get a clean slate . jason : oh . sam : that 's convenient . why would you invite hayden , knowing how elizabeth feels about her ? hayden : how could i possibly ruin her wedding ? sam : by showing up . jason : by showing up . hayden : [ laughs ] she 's gon na be so focused on marrying this guy right here , nothing will distract her . as for me , one thing i have n't forgotten is that i love a good party , so i will be there tomorrow with bells on . jason : mm . sam : it 's okay . uh , you 've been awfully quiet , nikolas . nikolas : these days , i suppose i have very little to say to you . why do n't we find a seat , hayden . i 'm sure we do n't want to take up anymore of jake and sam 's time together . hayden : is there a problem , sam ? sam : the only problem is that jake and i do not trust either of you . jason : looks like you guys made up your mind , so let me just tell you , if you upset elizabeth on her wedding day , you 're gon na regret it . [ scene_break ] [ cell phone beeps ] carly : spinelli , it 's me . um , i 'm sitting here with your computer , and the program is finished . i know you told me it was some kind of facial recognition program that you were running so you could reconstruct jake 's original face . you need to tell me exactly how this works , because if this means what i think it means ... just call me back , okay , as soon as you get this . oh , my god . if this is real , jake is jason .

[ sighs ] if this is true , i have to make sure . [ breathing heavily ] [ scene_break ] olivia : [ voice breaking ] you never got the chance to -- to hear dante say his first words or take his first steps . you never got to teach him how to throw a ball or ride a bike . you did n't even get to tell him about the facts of life before he went off to the prom with some girl who was not nearly good enough for him . sonny : is -- is -- is any girl good enough for him , olivia ? olivia : no . of course not . i 'm just saying ... [ sighs ] there were a lot of days -- important days that you miss out and you can never get back . and i will never regret keeping our son safe , but i 'm just saying -- i 'm sorry that it cost you your son 's childhood .

[ gasps ] everybody here heard valerie 's lie . i want them all to hear why she did it . i think that you 're trying to break up my marriage so that you can have dante all for yourself . valerie : lulu , no . that 's not true . lulu : you humiliated yourself for no reason . i know that my husband would never be unfaithful to me . dante : lulu , stop . lulu : tell me that you would n't do that to me -- to our family . tell me that you did n't sleep with her . dante : i 'm sorry , baby . it 's true .

[ scene_break ] patrick : did i hear something about karaoke ? sam : uh ... [ chuckles ] what happens at the rib stays at the rib . but elizabeth , i 've got to tell you , you are marrying a man of many hidden talents . elizabeth : you did n't really sing . did he sing ? jason : i - i -- sam : yes ! i mean , carly and michael pretty much made him do it , but the whole bar was chanting . it was so fun . elizabeth : i ca n't believe they 'd make you do that . jason : whatever , they 've been through a hellish few weeks . they needed to cut loose . so if suckering me into getting up on stage is what they needed to do -- hey , i 've survived worse . elizabeth : but you really sang ? i mean , like -- jason : no , i did n't . what i did -- it 's not singing . it was more like howling , but she -- she made me look good . sam : oh , stop . jason : no . she did . elizabeth : really ? how 'd she do that ? patrick : yeah , what 'd you do ? sam : we sang a duet together . [ laughs ] patrick : really ? elizabeth : wow , a duet . patrick : well , maybe the dynamic duo should get together and sing again at the reception . how 's that ? sam : that 's good . what do you say , jake ? can we do that ? elizabeth : no , i do n't think so . jason : mm . yeah , the only person i 'll be singing and dancing with is you .

[ scene_break ] maxie : what are you doing ? we have to help her . nathan : no , we -- no , we do n't . maxie : nathan , we ca n't just stand here . we have to do something . nathan : okay . okay . all right . all right , guys . party 's over . the pcpd is officially shutting this down . please collect your things . get moving . get your things . get to an exit calmly and quietly . this party is over . dante : we need to go somewhere and talk . lulu : what ? you are n't going anywhere . i want to know what happened , right now .

[ scene_break ] sonny : i know it could n't have been easy deciding to keep dante from me , but you knew that my business was dangerous . olivia : so you 're saying i had a point . sonny : well , look . i would never want to endanger my children , and you were pregnant with dante , and i was a young punk kid rising through the ranks . i did n't have any resources -- any power -- and i could n't protect my kid . so what i 'm trying to say is , you know , i 'm glad that you kept our son out of harm 's way . olivia : i 'm really glad you feel that way . sonny : and now , look , we got -- we got a relationship , right -- me and dante . it 's great . olivia : i think everything worked out for the best . our son is an all - around stand - up guy . sonny : a little too stand - up , 'cause , you know , he 's a cop . olivia : mother raised him right . sonny : yeah , she sure did . olivia : i could not ask for a better son . or for a better godfather for leo . i think our son is gon na set the perfect example for his little brother .

[ chuckles ] of course , you wo n't . but what if i do what jake did and i just leave the past behind ? that old hayden -- that mercenary little bitch , scheming and plotting and lying . nikolas : i do n't like it when you talk about yourself like that . hayden : i 'm just being truthful . what if that bullet really did her in ? and sitting before you is a brand new person -- someone you like better than the old me . by taking me to that wedding , are you saying you want to pick up where we left off before i was shot ? or ... better yet ... start over completely . nikolas : i 'm just ... saying ... that let 's just go to the wedding ... and leave it at that .

[ scene_break ] olivia : just tell me what you know ! all i 'm saying is i would not put dante on a pedestal , or anyone else , for that matter , because people have a tendency ... of falling off . [ scene_break ] tj : you know , kiki , i was watching morgan here the other night and , from the looks of things , the guy feels really bad about what happened . kiki : so , what , you think i should just forgive him ? pretend that he never cheated on me with my mother ? tj : i 'm not saying that . what morgan did to you was terrible . kiki : then why are you encouraging me to forgive him ? tj : listen , all i 'm saying is that i bet if the guy had the chance to do it all over again , he would n't , all right ? i know you need to do what 's best for you , but just remember what i said . morgan : where is everybody ? what did i -- what did i miss ? kiki : just , uh , your brother 's marriage falling apart in front of our eyes . morgan : what ? kiki : yeah , apparently dante was cheating on lulu with valerie . morgan : no , no , no , that -- that -- that -- ca n't be right . dante 's not the type to do something like that . kiki : yeah . well , turns out the two of you are more alike than you thought . [ chuckles ] mm , but at least i did n't have to watch my mother 's confession live on the big screen . morgan : what ? kiki : yeah , i 'm sure you 'll hear all about it . so , uh , where were you , anyway ? darby : he was with me . you forgot this . [ scene_break ] andy : i do n't know how this happened . the file should n't even be on the computer . dillon took the drive and stuck it in a drawer . dillon : no need for excuses , andy . just get out . andy : no , i - i - i -- dillon : now ! valerie : damn it , dillon ! i should 've never opened my stupid mouth . why did i even tell you anything ? dillon : i am so sorry . valerie : and then your intern recorded our whole conversation ? dillon : i know , this is horrible , but there is nothing we can do about it right now . valerie : yeah , you can fire andy ! dillon : that might be a little extreme . valerie : he recorded a private conversation then put it in his stupid documentary for the whole world to hear . either he 's a perv or a complete incompetent . [ scoffs ] unless it happened some other way . [ scene_break ] maxie : i 'm really worried about dante and lulu . i think we should go after them . nathan : maxie , no , all right ? the best thing that we can do right now is just let them deal with this themselves , okay ? maxie : i 'm calling lulu . nathan : no , maxie , no , no . maxie : hey ! nathan : look , i know that what we just saw was terrible , okay ? and your first instinct is gon na be to go and take care of your friend . maxie : just like your first instinct should 've been to beat some sense into dante . nathan : which is not gon na happen . all right ? and after all this time , i think the best thing would be for them to just hash this out -- maxie : wait . all this time ? oh , my god . you knew about this . [ scene_break ] dante : lulu , stop . please . would you stop ? we need to talk about this . just listen to me . lulu : [ smacks dante across the face . ] [ next_on ] carly ( to dr. sheinberg , handing over the bottle ) : time is of the essence ! jason ( to elizabeth ) : i might be remembering something . patrick ( to sam ) : you ca n't beat yourself up about this . kiki ( to morgan ) : you broke my heart . maxie ( to nathan ) : why did n't you trust me enough to talk to me about this ? valerie ( to dillon ) : you son of a bitch ! lulu ( to dante ) : get away from me !Summarize.[/INST]jake and elizabeth 's wedding preparation is underway . he 's asked carly to be his main person . she is ready to encourage jake 's wedding to elizabeth , initially having no suspicion . however , spinelli has left town to get to his daughter and has left his laptop in the possession of sam . he finds carly before finding sam and carly promises to deliver his computer to sam . while distracted we see the face - image of jake turning into jason ... and then from jason into jake . she finally sees the `` transformation `` from jason to jake and then back and fourth . she calls but does not reach spinelli . realizing the profound and devastating affect this will have on the lives of 4 people , she knows she has to make a private call to a doctor she knows . she needs a private dna test and needs the results asap . as soon as jake , elizabeth , sam and patrick all return to the hospital , she has jake drink some bottled water and waits until he leaves it behind so she can take it to the dna lab . meanwhile , nikolas is harboring the secret about jake 's true identity ( along with elizabeth ) . yet hayden shows no signs of remembering what she know before losing her memory from the shooting . she wants to develop a relationship of trust with nikolas and move to the next level . they run into jake and sam whom she happily and warmly greets although they are not happy to see her and clearly nikolas is not comfortable to see them , much less be seen with hayden , by then . yet hayden suspects nothing .</s> | 11,915 |
