[ scene_break ] lauren : so , jill invited me for dinner at the estate . but with you and fen locked up -- michael : oh , hey , there are far more dangerous places to be . like the cosmetics counter at fenmore 's on black friday . lauren : [ scoffs ] michael : there it is . i see it . your smile . that 's the image that i have when i close my eyes at night ... and i hope that i dream about my beautiful wife . i want you to promise me that you will find a reason every day to smile like that . lauren : i 'm trying . it 's so hard . michael : i know , sweetheart . look ... i know you have to leave soon . and i know this is tough . but , please , you have to remember all the things we have to be thankful for . lauren : no , i ca n't . i ca n't . michael : lauren . we almost lost fenmore this year , nearly got killed ourselves . we grew apart for a minute , and we fought our way back to it ... to each other . and even though we 're not in the same place right now ... for a while ... we 're still together . we 're still part of each other . lauren : forever . michael : that thought makes me incredibly happy ... every single second ... of every single day . [ scene_break ] paul : mm . happy thanksgiving , mrs. williams . even though we 're working and not cooking a turkey together . christine : mm . well , nothing about our marriage has been traditional so far , so why start now ? paul : that 's very true , is n't it ? christine : besides , i know judge wayne is here , and i want to see if he had a chance to review michael 's conviction . paul : if he thinks the case could be overturned -- christine : the minute i know anything , you 'll know . okay . paul : hey , nik , it 's me . listen , i know you were planning to tell your family about dylan , and i was just wondering how it went . i 'm here if you need me . [ scene_break ] nikki : victor , i was n't keeping this a secret from you . it was keeping it a secret from the entire world . victor : why does n't that make me feel better ? nikki : how can you share something with someone when you ca n't even accept it yourself ? i mean , to have talked about all of those horrible things that happened then , and i would have had to relive them , and i did n't want to , so i just buried my guilt and my shame , and i pretended none of it ever happened . victor : so you decided to suffer in silence instead of coming to the one person who could have helped you . nikki : will you do that for me now ? victor : help you with what ? nikki : i need you to accept that dylan is part of our lives [ scene_break ] victor : [ sighs ] you 're asking a hell of a lot of me . [ scene_break ] dylan : this is so messed up . if it 's true , i 'm supposed to accept that nick 's my brother ? i do n't think so . avery : look , i know what it 's like to be at odds with a sibling . dylan : yeah , you and phyllis were sisters . you knew who you were . avery : and in some ways that made it worse , having all this animosity between us when we were so close as kids . i mean , yes , i 'm glad that we made peace before her accident . but when she wakes up , who knows where we 'll be ? dylan : if you think i 'm looking to make peace with nick , not gon na happen . avery : i know that . and i know that you 're hurt and angry and resentful , and you have a right to be all those things . but , dylan , your parents are gone . and aside from your aunt , there are n't anymore mcavoys . and like it or not , you have these blood relatives . dylan : blood ? that does n't make them family . avery : no , it does n't , but maybe one day -- dylan : hell might freeze over first . [ scene_break ] sharon : dylan is your brother ? that means -- nick : that means that my brother stole away the woman i was planning to marry , which is not a new experience for me . sharon : [ scoffs ] well , let 's not get off on an adam tangent . so this is -- i mean , what did you do ? nick : i did what you 're trying to do . stammer my way through it , try to figure out how the hell this happened . i mean , i fought with this guy . i stood in this living room and told him to stay the hell out of my life forever . and now we are brothers ? in name only . sharon : well , nick , there 's a lot more to it than that . nick : look , sharon , i get that you two are friends . but dylan and i are never gon na be close . i still think he 's the same manipulative jerk that he was when he first came to town . the fact that we are related changes nothing . sharon : oh , you 're wrong , nick . this changes everything . [ scene_break ] kevin : chloe ? is this too much for you ? chloe : no , it 's -- it 's okay . i was really dreading this day , but i think that it 's really good to be here with everyone that loved delia . jill : i 'm really glad we 're doing this . i invited billy , but -- chloe : i do n't think he 's ready . kevin : does feel strange , though . first thanksgiving without mrs. c . esther : except for the one where we thought she was dead . jill : god , all those cries . those tears we cried for nothing . chloe : it was the same thanksgiving i announced i was having a baby girl . it 's okay . i know we ca n't pretend like she never existed . and experts say that you should talk about that loss and remember the good times . jill : and we had plenty of those , huh ? chloe : we did . and just knowing that they 're out there together -- i know that katherine 's taking really good care of her . kevin : vice versa . [ laughter ] chloe : and while we 're riffing on gratitude ... because of delia , a little boy is able to see his first thanksgiving . [ voice breaking ] if you ask me , that 's pretty damn awesome . esther : amen . [ scene_break ] chelsea : so ... what do you think ? adam : [ laughs ] chelsea : [ laughs ] adam : i think your mommy went a little too far . chelsea : well , no . i want our son to grow up loving the holidays . someday we 'll have boxes of mementos and pictures of him in these goofy little outfits , and we can share them as a family , l of our memories , huh ? i never had any of that stuff in my childhood . that 's for sure . adam : hey , you . let 's get this ... chelsea : you do n't like the -- oh , no ! oh , no ! adam : i never saw anita as a sentimental type , so i 'm sure -- chelsea : well , it 's kind of hard to hold on to everything when you 're skipping town every other weekend . what about hope ? did she embrace holidays and traditions ? adam : well , i grew up in cornball , kansas . you saw where i grew up . if it was hokey , my mommy made me do it . chelsea : oh , i want that for connor . i want him to celebrate every sappy tradition there is , every one that i did n't get to celebrate as a kid , huh ? adam : yeah , i 'm a little bit out of practice . i have n't celebrated many holidays since i moved to genoa city . chelsea : we all celebrated last thanksgiving . adam : almost . chelsea : i remember pretending to be okay so jeff and anita would n't start asking questions , but really i was just so jealous of all the attention you were giving sharon . adam : yeah , i should never ... should have never given you reason to feel that way . chelsea : what 's done is done . we 're here now . [ sighs ] it 's a new beginning . for connor . adam : for connor . chelsea : yeah . [ scene_break ] nick : i 'm done arguing about this with you . sharon : we 're not arguing . it 's just , look , i can tell that this is a really big deal to you , whether you want to admit it or not . you know , your family is complicated enough , and now here 's someone else with a claim . plus this means that dylan 's not only faith 's good friend , he 's her uncle and noah 's , too . nick : sharon , just stop . sharon : and you know what ? billy and dylan are very good friends , which means that victoria might be pretty okay with this . and you do n't know how you 're gon na deal with that , because dylan could end up having very good relationships with people who are very close to you , and you ca n't even stand to be in the same room with him . so all of this is just gnawing aw at you ... whether you want to acknowledge that or not . nick : so you got all that from me saying nothing 's changed . sharon : well , i 've been seeing a therapist for a very long time . maybe i 'm starting to think like one . nick : you know , if mom had to lay this on us , it 's like [ sighs ] why could n't she tell me and vick a long time ago that we had this other sibling out there somewhere ? then maybe this would n't have been such a shock . sharon : are you ready for another one ? i actually feel a lot of empathy for your mother . nick : of course you do . sharon : the day that i had to admit to you that i had had another baby in madison , the one that i gave up for adoption , that was one of the most difficult things i 've ever had to do . nick : i remember . sharon : and i was lucky to be reunited with cassie and to raise her for as many years as we did . still , if anyone understands what an emotional situation this is , it 's me . so if you can find it in your heart to give nikki a break , as hard as this is right now for everyone else to absorb the truth , what she is going through is even harder . [ scene_break ] nikki : do you really think you can do this ? you can accept dylan ? victor : the man caused nicholas so much misery . he was the reason that avery stood him up on the altar . and you expect me to accept him as a son ? nikki : as my son . i 'm not asking for anything more than that -- just to respect that he 's a part of our lives and find a way to be civil and not fan the flames with nicholas . victor : but , sweetheart , the facts have n't changed . there 's still bad blood between them . nikki : well , that 's not an answer . victor : [ sighs ] all right . you want an answer ? i 'll give it to you . nicholas is my son . and i will support him . nikki : well , he 's my son , too . it 's so funny . when i first heard that dylan was my son , something -- something stirred in me , something maternal . and i do n't know if dylan will ever feel anything other than contempt for me . but what i feel for him already is so strong . it amazes me how strong it is . victor : let me think about all this , all right ? i will not cause any harm intentionally . i promise you . but for you to expect me to accept him as a son ... do me a favor . do n't get too close with that guy . and if he does any harm to you , he 's gon na have to deal with me . nikki : victor , i do n't want to fight with you . certainly not on thanksgiving . actually , judging by the way dylan stormed out of there last night , i doubt that him being a part of our family will be an issue any time soon . victor : well , i would n't count on that , okay ? 'cause if you do , you 're bound to be disappointed . nikki : i 'll try not to expect too much too soon . victor : you know , whether someone comes in and says that 's your brother or your son does n't mean a damn thing . nikki : you mean like you and adam or you and your father . you should n't try to draw parallels between your relationships with them and my relationship with dylan . victor : sweetheart , dylan wants nothing to do with you or this family . i 'm sorry if that hurts you , but that 's a fact , and you better get used to that . [ scene_break ] chelsea : is n't it incredible how much life can change in a year ? adam : yeah , you do n't hate me nearly half as much as you did this time last year . chelsea : i never hated you , adam . i hated what you 'd become , the direction your life had taken . i hated that you had more of a connection with sharon than to me , your own wife . i hated that you cared more about your father 's company than you did our marriage . adam : well , now there 's no sharon , no marriage , and no business with my father . chelsea : yeah , but you 're still happy . are n't you ? adam : i would n't call it happiness . chelsea : now that you 're not consumed with newman anymore , i 'm starting to see ... i 'm starting to see the man i knew before . gentleness , the humanity that i was drawn to . i mean , i see it in the way you are with connor . i ... i see it in the way that delia 's death has affected you . adam : let 's not talk about that , okay . chelsea : okay . but , see , even just now , your reaction when i mentioned that -- you have a really big heart , adam . and you 're not afraid to show it . reminds me of the man who helped me pass my g.e.d . the man who ... saved my life when i fell through the ice and brought johnny safely into the world . the man i loved . [ scene_break ] esther : i think we should all share what we 're grateful for . i 'll start . i 'm grateful for my beautiful , talented , loving daughter . and i 'm grateful for all the gifts that mrs. c left behind . jill : right . thank god for all these priceless artifacts . esther : i was referring to the love , jill . mrs. c cared so much about each one of us , and we can never forget that . kevin : she said something this one thanksgiving . it was three years ago , i think . and it had been a tough couple of months , and she acknowledged that . [ kevin remembering ] kay : well , this year has been one of gains and losses . were i to have a scoreboard , i 'm not sure how it would tally up , but ... i do consider it a victory just standing here and looking at all of you . [ back to present ] esther : i remember that speech she gave . she was talking about how grateful she was for all the time with all of us . [ esther remembering ] kay : so today i 'd like to give thanks for all that extra time that we 've been given . and the time that we 've had with others who unfortunately are no longer here . [ back to present ] chloe : she talked about how love was a crapshoot . god ... is that ever true . [ chloe remembering ] kay : but i truly believe that every one of us here are blessed . and we have to remember that . [ back to present ] jill : she was always teaching lessons . esther : tell us what you 're thankful for , jill . come on . there 's got to be something . kevin : [ sighs ] lauren . jill : i 'm thankful for so much . [ scene_break ] michael : what are you doing here ? is this about fenmore ? have you moved him to a safer unit yet ? christine : we 're here to talk about your conviction . michael : we 've already discussed that , have n't we ? paul : the news is good . michael : look , i do n't want my conviction overturned . i 'm not leaving this prison while my son is still here , so unless your good news is the fact that the judge turned you down , you can go now . right now . paul : michael , listen . i know what you do n't want . but what i do want is justice . and justice is not being served by having an innocent man behind bars . christine : the judge has ruled to release you and reopen the investigation into carmine 's murder . michael : you know what you 've done , right ? you 've left my son in this place with no help , with no one to look after him . you did that ! i am guilty ! i killed carmine ! christine : if the investigation proves that , you will be right back in here . paul : michael , listen to me . i know you think you 're doing the right thing . i know you think you 're protecting your family . but the reality is your son is going to serve out his time with the drug charges no matter what . and meanwhile , lauren is suffering . what kind of a life do you think she is living without her husband or her son ? christine : you 've got to stop with the lies . the case has been reopened . you can not keep the truth from coming out . and , michael , whatever that turns out to be , we will all deal with the consequences . [ scene_break ] dylan : it 's like all my memories are tainted . the carving with our initials in my dad 's tree . you saying it was n't my dad 's tree ? avery : of course , it was . terry was still your father . dylan : what about my mom ? i had her up for sainthood . but the whole time , she was lying to me , lying to my dad , letting him believe he had a son of his own . avery : he did , dylan . dylan : it 's not the same , avery . you know that . my father was deceived . he never knew the truth . avery : who knows what your mother 's reasons were for doing this ? dylan : like chelsea 's reasons for lying to me ? for being willing to keep a lie for the rest of her life ? i mean , i ca n't forgive chelsea for what she did . how can i forgive my mom when i ca n't even confront her ? avery : this is n't the same situation as you and chelsea . dylan : it 's close enough , avery . avery : no ! no ! your mother did not keep a child from a father that wanted to raise him . dylan : how do you know that ? we do n't even know the guy . we do n't even know his name . or is that something else you were hiding , too ? [ scene_break ] adam : i 'm not the man you once fell in love with . so do n't go putting me on any pedestals , okay ? chelsea : i would never do that . but we both changed . and so has this little guy . you 've changed . you 've gotten bigg -- oh ! oh , i need a picture ! oh , here . take him . i think my phone 's upstairs . we 'll get a picture of you . adam : come here , chunky . chelsea : yes . i 'll be right back . adam : come here , peanut . hi . ooh . look at you . i 'm so sorry you 're wearing this . [ gasps ] mm . [ chuckles ] does that tickle ? put these on your feet . want to wear these ? no ? okay . we wo n't do it , then . we wo n't do it . you 're cute just the way you are . chelsea : okay . um ... all right , are you ready , munchkin ? or should i say `` turkey `` ? all right , on the count of three . ready ? adam : hold on . let me put this on his head . chelsea : oh , hat time . look at you . you are the cutest little turkey i 've ever seen . adam : all right . chelsea : okay . ready ? count of three . adam : you ready , peanut ? chelsea : say `` turkey . `` one ... two ... oh , let 's do it this way . one ... two ... three . both : turkey ! chelsea : ah ! [ laughs ] our first family portrait . adam : you see that ? chelsea : yeah . yeah . yeah , you like that , huh ? [ scene_break ] lauren : it 's just every day that they 're in prison , it just gets harder . kevin : i get it . and it kills me that i ca n't do anything . i work the cops , and i ca n't help michael . i ca n't help fen . there 's nothing i can do for chloe . lauren : oh , honey , i think you 're doing more than you know . hey , sis , this has been so great , but i - i 'm gon na go . jill : really ? where you gon na go ? to your office ? to your empty apartment ? no . no . you 're gon na stay here until after the turkey is served . how is that coming , by the way ? esther : how 's what coming ? jill : the turkey that you 're making . esther : i 'm not making any turkey . jill : what ? esther : you told me that you were handling all the details . jill : details . yes . i called all the people to get here . i got the ice for the drinks . those are the details . the kitchen is your department , esther . lauren : communications snafu . jill : oh ! esther : no kidding . now what are we gon na do ? jill : well , i have no idea . you figure it out , because without a turkey , there is no thanksgiving ! oh ! esther : jill . kevin : well , no matter what , there are some things you can always count on . chloe : you 're right . there are . kevin : [ chuckles ] [ scene_break ] avery : i do n't know much about your real father . all nikki said is that he was n't a very good man . dylan : oh , that 's great . i love hearing that half my genes come from some lowlife . that 's awesome . what about his family ? there more brothers and sisters i do n't know about ? avery : those are excellent questions . dylan : yeah , and i 'm sure i 'm gon na have a lot more , but do i really want the answers ? avery : well , dylan , if you decide you do , you know where you have to go to get them . [ scene_break ] nikki : i may not have a relationship with dylan right now , but i am willing to work hard and patiently to build one . victor : you mean like i built a relationship with adam ? nikki : no , not at all . those two boys might have come to us as sons late in life , but the similarities end there . in adam 's case , we knew he existed , but until hope died and you invited him here , we had never experienced his vindictiveness . victor : sweetheart , you and nicholas and victoria expressed your resentment of him the moment he arrived in genoa city . nikki : well , that resentment came a lot from you boosting him right into the higher echelons of newman regardless of what nicholas and victoria thought about it . they were crushed . they had worked for years from the ground up , learning at newman , and then all of a sudden , this brother who they have n't seen since he was a baby comes in , lording his wall street experience and his harvard education over mere mortals . well , dylan is n't adam . and i 'm not you . and i know better than to pit my children against each other to show loyalty to me . victor : well , sweetheart ... you may want to show loyalty to him . because guilt is a powerful motivator . nikki : if you 're saying that you think i 'm going to favor dylan out of guilt of giving him up over the other two children , that 's not going to happen . victor : i 'm gon na hold you to that . [ scene_break ] nick : as angry as i was at mom , i could see how difficult it was for her to tell us her story . sharon : lord knows nikki and i have had our differences , but i would n't wish what she went through on anyone . nick : mom and i do need to talk , but i ca n't do it tonight . i ca n't just sit around the table and say , `` hey , pass the turkey , `` and everything 's fine . sharon : no . you guys need time . nick : thanks for understanding . sharon : i 'll just explain to faith that you 've changed the plan and you 're not going to be seeing her grandparents tonight after all . nick : i feel bad . i mean , i know how much faith was looking forward to this holiday dinner . hey , what are you doing for dinner ? sharon : me ? i do n't have any plans . nick : well , maybe we can give faith that family dinner after all . [ scene_break ] kevin : kung pao chicken with a side of cranberry sauce . i have to say , not half bad . jill : well , how was i to know that every store in town would be out of turkey ? esther : it 's not the food . it 's the company . right , everyone ? jill : you 're absolutely right . it is . chloe : all right , well , then let 's open up our fortune cookies . kevin : ah ! yes ! the traditional thanksgiving fortune cookie . esther : what does mine say ? `` an angel is watching over you . `` is n't that the truth ? jill : [ chuckles ] kevin : okay . `` big changes are coming your way . `` hmm . of course , it does n't say whether or not they 're good or bad . jill : oh , they 're good . lauren : yeah . chloe : `` never underestimate the power of the human touch . `` jill : `` do not fear the unknown . ask the right question , and the answer will be worth knowing . `` oh , my god . kevin : i thought mine was cryptic . jill : it 's just like katherine wrote this . esther : what does yours say , lauren ? lauren : oh . see ... `` truth sets one free . `` kevin : keep the faith . esther : yeah . lauren : you know , it 's just been so nice . i 'm really gon na go now . kevin : love you . lauren : love you . chloe : so good to see you . lauren : good to see you . oh , bye .

[ scene_break ] dylan : closed for the holidays , but i had to come here and do something , or i was gon na lose it . avery : should i be worried ? dylan : no , this is just an annoyance . it 's not gon na push me over the edge . avery : okay , good . so everything 's under control . dylan : uh , no , it 's not . i still really do n't know how to handle the news that nikki newman 's my birth mother . i ca n't talk to my parents because , you know , they 're gone . avery : dylan , i ca n't even imagine what you 're going through . dylan : well , i 'll tell you what . i want proof . i want a dna test . avery : yes , of course . and i will help you get that . but i do think that nikki did her due diligence . dylan : okay , well , if this turns out to be true , how do i even accept that nikki newman 's my mother and everything that goes along with that ? [ scene_break ] nikki : you must be exhausted . i doubt if either one of us got much sleep last night after what happened at the club . victor : i 've got to be honest with you . it was a hell of a shock to find out that you had another son . and of all people , that it 's that dylan mcavoy -- whatever his name is . nikki : i am sorry the truth came out the way it did . especially with me in the middle , trying to keep nicholas and dylan apart , from killing each other . victor : you know what really bothers me ? that you kept this a secret from me all the years that you and i have been together . [ scene_break ] chelsea : look what connor made . it 's a turkey . see ? his footprint 's the body , and he made the feathers out of his tiny little hands . adam : you did that , huh , all by yourself , without help from mom ? chelsea : he did . i have been telling you our son is a creative genius . and now we have a decoration to put for thanksgiving . adam : that 's today . chelsea : it 's connor 's first . and i intend to make it very special .

[ scene_break ] chloe : so what are we doing , exactly ? jill : all right , i will give everyone your love . bye - bye , murphy . we 're celebrating thanksgiving . esther : surprised me , too , but jill insisted . jill : i 've taken care of all the details , all right . so take your coats off , sit down , and relax . kevin : well , you know , i do n't know that anyone is really up for that . jill : kevin , all of us have been dealing with an awful lot of grief and loss lately , all right ? but the truth is we still have each other . so come on . let 's seize the day and remember that we have a lot to be thankful for . esther : you know who you sound like , do n't you ? kevin : totally . jill : i may have my issues with the old girl , but she knew what she was talking about every once in a while . all right , so let 's just take a page out of katherine 's book and make an effort that she 'd be proud of . [ scene_break ] lauren : so , jill invited me for dinner at the estate . but with you and fen locked up -- michael : oh , hey , there are far more dangerous places to be . like the cosmetics counter at fenmore 's on black friday . lauren : [ scoffs ] michael : there it is . i see it . your smile . that 's the image that i have when i close my eyes at night ... and i hope that i dream about my beautiful wife . i want you to promise me that you will find a reason every day to smile like that . lauren : i 'm trying . it 's so hard . michael : i know , sweetheart . look ... i know you have to leave soon . and i know this is tough . but , please , you have to remember all the things we have to be thankful for . lauren : no , i ca n't . i ca n't . michael : lauren . we almost lost fenmore this year , nearly got killed ourselves . we grew apart for a minute , and we fought our way back to it ... to each other . and even though we 're not in the same place right now ... for a while ... we 're still together . we 're still part of each other . lauren : forever . michael : that thought makes me incredibly happy ... every single second ... of every single day . [ scene_break ] paul : mm . happy thanksgiving , mrs. williams . even though we 're working and not cooking a turkey together . christine : mm . well , nothing about our marriage has been traditional so far , so why start now ? paul : that 's very true , is n't it ? christine : besides , i know judge wayne is here , and i want to see if he had a chance to review michael 's conviction . paul : if he thinks the case could be overturned -- christine : the minute i know anything , you 'll know . okay . paul : hey , nik , it 's me . listen , i know you were planning to tell your family about dylan , and i was just wondering how it went . i 'm here if you need me . [ scene_break ] nikki : victor , i was n't keeping this a secret from you . it was keeping it a secret from the entire world . victor : why does n't that make me feel better ? nikki : how can you share something with someone when you ca n't even accept it yourself ? i mean , to have talked about all of those horrible things that happened then , and i would have had to relive them , and i did n't want to , so i just buried my guilt and my shame , and i pretended none of it ever happened . victor : so you decided to suffer in silence instead of coming to the one person who could have helped you . nikki : will you do that for me now ? victor : help you with what ? nikki : i need you to accept that dylan is part of our lives [ scene_break ] victor : [ sighs ] you 're asking a hell of a lot of me . [ scene_break ] dylan : this is so messed up . if it 's true , i 'm supposed to accept that nick 's my brother ? i do n't think so . avery : look , i know what it 's like to be at odds with a sibling . dylan : yeah , you and phyllis were sisters . you knew who you were . avery : and in some ways that made it worse , having all this animosity between us when we were so close as kids . i mean , yes , i 'm glad that we made peace before her accident . but when she wakes up , who knows where we 'll be ? dylan : if you think i 'm looking to make peace with nick , not gon na happen . avery : i know that . and i know that you 're hurt and angry and resentful , and you have a right to be all those things . but , dylan , your parents are gone . and aside from your aunt , there are n't anymore mcavoys . and like it or not , you have these blood relatives . dylan : blood ? that does n't make them family . avery : no , it does n't , but maybe one day -- dylan : hell might freeze over first . [ scene_break ] sharon : dylan is your brother ? that means -- nick : that means that my brother stole away the woman i was planning to marry , which is not a new experience for me . sharon : [ scoffs ] well , let 's not get off on an adam tangent . so this is -- i mean , what did you do ? nick : i did what you 're trying to do . stammer my way through it , try to figure out how the hell this happened . i mean , i fought with this guy . i stood in this living room and told him to stay the hell out of my life forever . and now we are brothers ? in name only . sharon : well , nick , there 's a lot more to it than that . nick : look , sharon , i get that you two are friends . but dylan and i are never gon na be close . i still think he 's the same manipulative jerk that he was when he first came to town . the fact that we are related changes nothing . sharon : oh , you 're wrong , nick . this changes everything . [ scene_break ] kevin : chloe ? is this too much for you ? chloe : no , it 's -- it 's okay . i was really dreading this day , but i think that it 's really good to be here with everyone that loved delia . jill : i 'm really glad we 're doing this . i invited billy , but -- chloe : i do n't think he 's ready . kevin : does feel strange , though . first thanksgiving without mrs. c . esther : except for the one where we thought she was dead . jill : god , all those cries . those tears we cried for nothing . chloe : it was the same thanksgiving i announced i was having a baby girl . it 's okay . i know we ca n't pretend like she never existed . and experts say that you should talk about that loss and remember the good times . jill : and we had plenty of those , huh ? chloe : we did . and just knowing that they 're out there together -- i know that katherine 's taking really good care of her . kevin : vice versa . [ laughter ] chloe : and while we 're riffing on gratitude ... because of delia , a little boy is able to see his first thanksgiving . [ voice breaking ] if you ask me , that 's pretty damn awesome . esther : amen . [ scene_break ] chelsea : so ... what do you think ? adam : [ laughs ] chelsea : [ laughs ] adam : i think your mommy went a little too far . chelsea : well , no . i want our son to grow up loving the holidays . someday we 'll have boxes of mementos and pictures of him in these goofy little outfits , and we can share them as a family , l of our memories , huh ? i never had any of that stuff in my childhood . that 's for sure . adam : hey , you . let 's get this ... chelsea : you do n't like the -- oh , no ! oh , no ! adam : i never saw anita as a sentimental type , so i 'm sure -- chelsea : well , it 's kind of hard to hold on to everything when you 're skipping town every other weekend . what about hope ? did she embrace holidays and traditions ? adam : well , i grew up in cornball , kansas . you saw where i grew up . if it was hokey , my mommy made me do it . chelsea : oh , i want that for connor . i want him to celebrate every sappy tradition there is , every one that i did n't get to celebrate as a kid , huh ? adam : yeah , i 'm a little bit out of practice . i have n't celebrated many holidays since i moved to genoa city . chelsea : we all celebrated last thanksgiving . adam : almost . chelsea : i remember pretending to be okay so jeff and anita would n't start asking questions , but really i was just so jealous of all the attention you were giving sharon . adam : yeah , i should never ... should have never given you reason to feel that way . chelsea : what 's done is done . we 're here now . [ sighs ] it 's a new beginning . for connor . adam : for connor . chelsea : yeah . [ scene_break ] nick : i 'm done arguing about this with you . sharon : we 're not arguing . it 's just , look , i can tell that this is a really big deal to you , whether you want to admit it or not . you know , your family is complicated enough , and now here 's someone else with a claim . plus this means that dylan 's not only faith 's good friend , he 's her uncle and noah 's , too . nick : sharon , just stop . sharon : and you know what ? billy and dylan are very good friends , which means that victoria might be pretty okay with this . and you do n't know how you 're gon na deal with that , because dylan could end up having very good relationships with people who are very close to you , and you ca n't even stand to be in the same room with him . so all of this is just gnawing aw at you ... whether you want to acknowledge that or not . nick : so you got all that from me saying nothing 's changed . sharon : well , i 've been seeing a therapist for a very long time . maybe i 'm starting to think like one . nick : you know , if mom had to lay this on us , it 's like [ sighs ] why could n't she tell me and vick a long time ago that we had this other sibling out there somewhere ? then maybe this would n't have been such a shock . sharon : are you ready for another one ? i actually feel a lot of empathy for your mother . nick : of course you do . sharon : the day that i had to admit to you that i had had another baby in madison , the one that i gave up for adoption , that was one of the most difficult things i 've ever had to do . nick : i remember . sharon : and i was lucky to be reunited with cassie and to raise her for as many years as we did . still , if anyone understands what an emotional situation this is , it 's me . so if you can find it in your heart to give nikki a break , as hard as this is right now for everyone else to absorb the truth , what she is going through is even harder . [ scene_break ] nikki : do you really think you can do this ? you can accept dylan ? victor : the man caused nicholas so much misery . he was the reason that avery stood him up on the altar . and you expect me to accept him as a son ? nikki : as my son . i 'm not asking for anything more than that -- just to respect that he 's a part of our lives and find a way to be civil and not fan the flames with nicholas . victor : but , sweetheart , the facts have n't changed . there 's still bad blood between them . nikki : well , that 's not an answer . victor : [ sighs ] all right . you want an answer ? i 'll give it to you . nicholas is my son . and i will support him . nikki : well , he 's my son , too . it 's so funny . when i first heard that dylan was my son , something -- something stirred in me , something maternal . and i do n't know if dylan will ever feel anything other than contempt for me . but what i feel for him already is so strong . it amazes me how strong it is . victor : let me think about all this , all right ? i will not cause any harm intentionally . i promise you . but for you to expect me to accept him as a son ... do me a favor . do n't get too close with that guy . and if he does any harm to you , he 's gon na have to deal with me . nikki : victor , i do n't want to fight with you . certainly not on thanksgiving . actually , judging by the way dylan stormed out of there last night , i doubt that him being a part of our family will be an issue any time soon . victor : well , i would n't count on that , okay ? 'cause if you do , you 're bound to be disappointed . nikki : i 'll try not to expect too much too soon . victor : you know , whether someone comes in and says that 's your brother or your son does n't mean a damn thing . nikki : you mean like you and adam or you and your father . you should n't try to draw parallels between your relationships with them and my relationship with dylan . victor : sweetheart , dylan wants nothing to do with you or this family . i 'm sorry if that hurts you , but that 's a fact , and you better get used to that . [ scene_break ] chelsea : is n't it incredible how much life can change in a year ? adam : yeah , you do n't hate me nearly half as much as you did this time last year . chelsea : i never hated you , adam . i hated what you 'd become , the direction your life had taken . i hated that you had more of a connection with sharon than to me , your own wife . i hated that you cared more about your father 's company than you did our marriage . adam : well , now there 's no sharon , no marriage , and no business with my father . chelsea : yeah , but you 're still happy . are n't you ? adam : i would n't call it happiness . chelsea : now that you 're not consumed with newman anymore , i 'm starting to see ... i 'm starting to see the man i knew before . gentleness , the humanity that i was drawn to . i mean , i see it in the way you are with connor . i ... i see it in the way that delia 's death has affected you . adam : let 's not talk about that , okay . chelsea : okay . but , see , even just now , your reaction when i mentioned that -- you have a really big heart , adam . and you 're not afraid to show it . reminds me of the man who helped me pass my g.e.d . the man who ... saved my life when i fell through the ice and brought johnny safely into the world . the man i loved . [ scene_break ] esther : i think we should all share what we 're grateful for . i 'll start . i 'm grateful for my beautiful , talented , loving daughter . and i 'm grateful for all the gifts that mrs. c left behind . jill : right . thank god for all these priceless artifacts . esther : i was referring to the love , jill . mrs. c cared so much about each one of us , and we can never forget that . kevin : she said something this one thanksgiving . it was three years ago , i think . and it had been a tough couple of months , and she acknowledged that . [ kevin remembering ] kay : well , this year has been one of gains and losses . were i to have a scoreboard , i 'm not sure how it would tally up , but ... i do consider it a victory just standing here and looking at all of you . [ back to present ] esther : i remember that speech she gave . she was talking about how grateful she was for all the time with all of us . [ esther remembering ] kay : so today i 'd like to give thanks for all that extra time that we 've been given . and the time that we 've had with others who unfortunately are no longer here . [ back to present ] chloe : she talked about how love was a crapshoot . god ... is that ever true . [ chloe remembering ] kay : but i truly believe that every one of us here are blessed . and we have to remember that . [ back to present ] jill : she was always teaching lessons . esther : tell us what you 're thankful for , jill . come on . there 's got to be something . kevin : [ sighs ] lauren . jill : i 'm thankful for so much . [ scene_break ] michael : what are you doing here ? is this about fenmore ? have you moved him to a safer unit yet ? christine : we 're here to talk about your conviction . michael : we 've already discussed that , have n't we ? paul : the news is good . michael : look , i do n't want my conviction overturned . i 'm not leaving this prison while my son is still here , so unless your good news is the fact that the judge turned you down , you can go now . right now . paul : michael , listen . i know what you do n't want . but what i do want is justice . and justice is not being served by having an innocent man behind bars . christine : the judge has ruled to release you and reopen the investigation into carmine 's murder . michael : you know what you 've done , right ? you 've left my son in this place with no help , with no one to look after him . you did that ! i am guilty ! i killed carmine ! christine : if the investigation proves that , you will be right back in here . paul : michael , listen to me . i know you think you 're doing the right thing . i know you think you 're protecting your family . but the reality is your son is going to serve out his time with the drug charges no matter what . and meanwhile , lauren is suffering . what kind of a life do you think she is living without her husband or her son ? christine : you 've got to stop with the lies . the case has been reopened . you can not keep the truth from coming out . and , michael , whatever that turns out to be , we will all deal with the consequences . [ scene_break ] dylan : it 's like all my memories are tainted . the carving with our initials in my dad 's tree . you saying it was n't my dad 's tree ? avery : of course , it was . terry was still your father . dylan : what about my mom ? i had her up for sainthood . but the whole time , she was lying to me , lying to my dad , letting him believe he had a son of his own . avery : he did , dylan . dylan : it 's not the same , avery . you know that . my father was deceived . he never knew the truth . avery : who knows what your mother 's reasons were for doing this ? dylan : like chelsea 's reasons for lying to me ? for being willing to keep a lie for the rest of her life ? i mean , i ca n't forgive chelsea for what she did . how can i forgive my mom when i ca n't even confront her ? avery : this is n't the same situation as you and chelsea . dylan : it 's close enough , avery . avery : no ! no ! your mother did not keep a child from a father that wanted to raise him . dylan : how do you know that ? we do n't even know the guy . we do n't even know his name . or is that something else you were hiding , too ? [ scene_break ] adam : i 'm not the man you once fell in love with . so do n't go putting me on any pedestals , okay ? chelsea : i would never do that . but we both changed . and so has this little guy . you 've changed . you 've gotten bigg -- oh ! oh , i need a picture ! oh , here . take him . i think my phone 's upstairs . we 'll get a picture of you . adam : come here , chunky . chelsea : yes . i 'll be right back . adam : come here , peanut . hi . ooh . look at you . i 'm so sorry you 're wearing this . [ gasps ] mm . [ chuckles ] does that tickle ? put these on your feet . want to wear these ? no ? okay . we wo n't do it , then . we wo n't do it . you 're cute just the way you are . chelsea : okay . um ... all right , are you ready , munchkin ? or should i say `` turkey `` ? all right , on the count of three . ready ? adam : hold on . let me put this on his head . chelsea : oh , hat time . look at you . you are the cutest little turkey i 've ever seen . adam : all right . chelsea : okay . ready ? count of three . adam : you ready , peanut ? chelsea : say `` turkey . `` one ... two ... oh , let 's do it this way . one ... two ... three . both : turkey ! chelsea : ah !

[ scene_break ] lauren : it 's just every day that they 're in prison , it just gets harder . kevin : i get it . and it kills me that i ca n't do anything . i work the cops , and i ca n't help michael . i ca n't help fen . there 's nothing i can do for chloe . lauren : oh , honey , i think you 're doing more than you know . hey , sis , this has been so great , but i - i 'm gon na go . jill : really ? where you gon na go ? to your office ? to your empty apartment ? no . no . you 're gon na stay here until after the turkey is served . how is that coming , by the way ? esther : how 's what coming ? jill : the turkey that you 're making . esther : i 'm not making any turkey . jill : what ? esther : you told me that you were handling all the details . jill : details . yes . i called all the people to get here . i got the ice for the drinks . those are the details . the kitchen is your department , esther . lauren : communications snafu . jill : oh ! esther : no kidding . now what are we gon na do ? jill : well , i have no idea . you figure it out , because without a turkey , there is no thanksgiving ! oh ! esther : jill . kevin : well , no matter what , there are some things you can always count on . chloe : you 're right . there are . kevin : [ chuckles ] [ scene_break ] avery : i do n't know much about your real father . all nikki said is that he was n't a very good man . dylan : oh , that 's great . i love hearing that half my genes come from some lowlife . that 's awesome . what about his family ? there more brothers and sisters i do n't know about ? avery : those are excellent questions . dylan : yeah , and i 'm sure i 'm gon na have a lot more , but do i really want the answers ? avery : well , dylan , if you decide you do , you know where you have to go to get them . [ scene_break ] nikki : i may not have a relationship with dylan right now , but i am willing to work hard and patiently to build one . victor : you mean like i built a relationship with adam ? nikki : no , not at all . those two boys might have come to us as sons late in life , but the similarities end there . in adam 's case , we knew he existed , but until hope died and you invited him here , we had never experienced his vindictiveness . victor : sweetheart , you and nicholas and victoria expressed your resentment of him the moment he arrived in genoa city . nikki : well , that resentment came a lot from you boosting him right into the higher echelons of newman regardless of what nicholas and victoria thought about it . they were crushed . they had worked for years from the ground up , learning at newman , and then all of a sudden , this brother who they have n't seen since he was a baby comes in , lording his wall street experience and his harvard education over mere mortals . well , dylan is n't adam . and i 'm not you . and i know better than to pit my children against each other to show loyalty to me . victor : well , sweetheart ... you may want to show loyalty to him . because guilt is a powerful motivator . nikki : if you 're saying that you think i 'm going to favor dylan out of guilt of giving him up over the other two children , that 's not going to happen . victor : i 'm gon na hold you to that . [ scene_break ] nick : as angry as i was at mom , i could see how difficult it was for her to tell us her story . sharon : lord knows nikki and i have had our differences , but i would n't wish what she went through on anyone . nick : mom and i do need to talk , but i ca n't do it tonight . i ca n't just sit around the table and say , `` hey , pass the turkey , `` and everything 's fine . sharon : no . you guys need time . nick : thanks for understanding . sharon : i 'll just explain to faith that you 've changed the plan and you 're not going to be seeing her grandparents tonight after all . nick : i feel bad . i mean , i know how much faith was looking forward to this holiday dinner . hey , what are you doing for dinner ? sharon : me ? i do n't have any plans . nick : well , maybe we can give faith that family dinner after all .

you have just come out of the marriage from hell . why are you rushing into another commitment ? paul : so you think chris is right ? that i should be moving along more slowly ? lauren : well , here 's what i think , and i 'm not being philosophical . you should enjoy life . you should relax . there is a big , beautiful world out there . there are places to go and people to see , old friends you 've neglected . paul : oh , really ? is that right ? lauren : mm - hmm . so christine needs to do some soul - searching . let her . and in the meantime , why do n't you do some exploring of your own ? paul : you mean with some of those old friends that you mentioned ?

was it love when you disappeared for months , and when you came back here in disguise pretending to be someone else ? chris : i needed some answers , okay ? i 'm not defending what he did . michael : still , you have to admit that you and paul have done a lot of strange and bizarre things . i mean , you 've done things that are totally out of character for both of you , hurtful , tragic things . michael : christine , there is so much that is not healthy about this relationship , at least not anymore . i hope you take a good , long look at that before you make any decisions about your future . all right . that 's my two cents . i hope you know that i really do only want what 's best for you , and that 's one thing that will never change . chris : i 'll see you around [ scene_break ] phyllis : victor did not take ashley by the arm and force her to get into that car , drucilla . dru : phyllis , you can do better than that . phyllis : ashley is resilient . she is not a helpless little waif . she is capable of making her own decisions , and to hold victor newman responsible for a decision that ashley made of her own volition is insane . yes , the consequences were tragic . dru : he should have stayed away from her . phyllis : he was being a friend . he was afraid that she was not going to stay detached during the rollout . dru : victor newman knew that he was going to play dirty pool , and he knew that the scales were going to tip in his favor . he got a conscience . he ran to ashley . he told her how he felt , and he totally ruined her peace of mind . phyllis : are you kidding me ?

was it love when you disappeared for months , and when you came back here in disguise pretending to be someone else ? chris : i needed some answers , okay ? i 'm not defending what he did . michael : still , you have to admit that you and paul have done a lot of strange and bizarre things . i mean , you 've done things that are totally out of character for both of you , hurtful , tragic things . michael : christine , there is so much that is not healthy about this relationship , at least not anymore . i hope you take a good , long look at that before you make any decisions about your future . all right . that 's my two cents . i hope you know that i really do only want what 's best for you , and that 's one thing that will never change . chris : i 'll see you around [ scene_break ] phyllis : victor did not take ashley by the arm and force her to get into that car , drucilla . dru : phyllis , you can do better than that . phyllis : ashley is resilient . she is not a helpless little waif . she is capable of making her own decisions , and to hold victor newman responsible for a decision that ashley made of her own volition is insane . yes , the consequences were tragic . dru : he should have stayed away from her . phyllis : he was being a friend . he was afraid that she was not going to stay detached during the rollout . dru : victor newman knew that he was going to play dirty pool , and he knew that the scales were going to tip in his favor . he got a conscience . he ran to ashley . he told her how he felt , and he totally ruined her peace of mind . phyllis : are you kidding me ?

[ scene_break ] damon : now i have n't got a thing against psychiatrists . i know they help a lot of people , but whenever there 's a crisis , all too often it seems to me the temptation is to lean on medical science , put people in hospitals , pump them full of drugs , isolate them from their families . brad : so what 's your approach ? damon : i 'm nobody 's doctor , all right ? but , please , consider this . not only has ashley lost -- has ashley lost her firstborn son , but she has lost the opportunity to have any more babies . we both know that has to be extremely devastating . could n't it be that she just has n't been able to come to grips with it ? brad : so you think this fantasy that the baby lived -- damon : i think it 's her mind 's way of cushioning her from a reality she 's not ready to accept . brad : you sure you 're not a psychiatrist now ? damon : well , look , i consider myself a student of the human heart and maybe the mind , but from a much more spiritual perspective , i hope . anyway , what i witnessed at the gala -- it was a cry of pain a cry to be healed . and i think the only way that 's going to happen is for her family to love her through this . those are the keys , brad . you start to treat that woman like she 's mentally ill ; the danger is she 's going to conform to that expectation . whereas with time , support , ashley will see what she has to face . ashley : what is he doing here ? why is this house always full of people ? there are children sleeping . i 've got a baby that i 'm trying to take care of . look , i 'm sorry . i do n't mean to be rude . it 's just that i 'm feeling really stressed out here . there 's something going on , and you wo n't even tell me what it is . now how am i supposed to deal with that and a newborn at the same time ? it 's just not fair .

maxie : actually , i do n't have to testify . i did some research and a wife does n't have testify against her husband . felicia : oh , my -- spinelli : you and -- you and matt are married ? maxie : we sure are . spinelli : that 's impossible . you were only gone for that short recess . maxie : it does n't take long to say `` i do , `` especially with the justice of the peace in the same building . patrick : matt , is this true ? did you get married ? matt : i did . maxie : now , since i wo n't be testifying against matt and there are no other witnesses of his alleged killing of lisa niles , i assume you 'll be dropping all murder charges against my husband . dante : thank you , judge . thank you . okay . you , too . take care . bye - bye . padilla , i 'm glad you 're back . where you been ? delores : i was following up on that anonymous tip about shots fired in the quartermaine estate . get this -- we found a bloodstain in the boathouse . i 'm having the lab analyze it before we run it through the system . dante : what do the quartermaines have to say ? delores : i spoke to everybody in that house . nobody saw or heard anything out of the ordinary . tracy : [ gasps ] [ sighs ] you scared the hell out of me . luke : i take it you did n't find the body . tracy : i did not , and i take it you did n't find him , either , so where is my dead husband ? luke : it 's hard enough for a living person to disappear , but a dead one ? tracy : we left him on the terrace . there 's no way he could stand up and walk away , unless -- luke : unless what ? tracy : he was n't really dead ? johnny : still nothing . damn it . anthony : what 's the matter ? [ chuckles ] you worried that my death has n't been reported yet ? johnny : you 're a high - profile crime figure . you -- you 'd think that you being shot to death would at least make the local news . anthony : maybe the cops have n't found my body yet . johnny : but i called the cops with that anonymous tip . i practically told them where i put your body . i mean , what are they waiting for ? an engraved invitation ? anthony : what did i always tell you ? no matter how well you plan something , there 's no accounting for the element -- of surprise ! jason : i was just hauled in by the cops on suspicion of murdering franco . mcbain : and ? jason : they were acting on an anonymous tip -- from you . molly : so , if you 're not pregnant , what 's this family project ? kristina : exactly what it sounds like . a project that involves the whole family -- ours -- and yours . sonny : can you be a little more specific , kristina ? kristina : the grad student i mentioned ? sonny : mm - hmm . kristina : he 's in media studies , and he has a great new idea for a new reality show . molly : a reality show ? kristina : about us . with me as the star . it 's going to be called `` mob princess . `` could it be any more perfect ? sonny : what the hell are you talking about ? alexis : the media is glutted with shows about desperate people who will do anything to get on tv , and while i think the idea of a reality show called `` mob princess `` would appeal to the lowest common denominator , i 'm quite certain she 's joking . kristina : i 'm dead serious . i 'm shooting a reality show about my life . blair : i phrased that last description so that in case you were n't joking , you would see that it 's a really , really bad idea . kristina : well , i think it 's a really , really good idea . but do n't worry . i 'm not going to steal the limelight . i 'm going to have a fabulous supporting cast . you . and you . and you . and you . luke : trust me , tracy . anthony did n't get up off that lounge chair and just stroll away on his own . tracy : all right , then what happened to him ? luke : well , obviously , somebody moved him . maybe one of the staff ? tracy : yeah . the gardener . he planted him . luke : okay . some fresh , young stud with a shovel , anxious to please the mistress by helping her hide the murdered husband . tracy : first of all , the staff hates me . if they do n't , monica fires them . second of all , i did not have time to talk to the gardener or anybody else , for that matter , about anthony . luke : you could have sent him a text . tracy : and lastly , i did not kill my husband , which means -- you did . dante : while we 're waiting on the lab results , why do n't we go on a little field trip ? delores : where to ? dante : john zacchara 's got judge harkness to sign off on a search warrant . delores : for johnny 's place ? why ? dante : we still have n't found out whoever shot out anthony 's tires , and they caused the death of cole thornhart and his daughter , hope . delores : i know , but do you think johnny did it ? dante : i have n't totally ruled out kate howard . i wanted to question her after she was booked for assaulting her shrink , but then she was moved to shadybrook . right now , johnny 's our guy . delores : but he 's got an alibi . dante : carly jacks ? she lies more than anyone i 've ever met . carly as an alibi is totally meaningless to me . delores : even if you 're right , it 's been months since the accident . do you think there 's gon na be any evidence left at his apartment ? dante : let 's go find out . johnny : i do n't get it . i planted your body in that boathouse . i called the cops with the anonymous tip . the morons still have n't found you yet . anthony : you probably screwed it up . you always do . like that last time you tried to take me out and ended up killing those kids instead . johnny : shut the hell up ! anthony : or what ? you 'll kill me again ? johnny : if only i could . anthony : that 's cold , john . sounds like you got no conscience . johnny : i do n't . not when it comes to you . anthony : [ chuckles ] if that 's true , what am i doing here ? so what kind of game -- matt : no game . no game . maxie is now mrs. matthew hunter . i 'm gon na move to see to it that you are disbarred for this ridiculous stunt . rosalyn : i had nothing to do with this . maxie : quan had nothing to do with this . matt and i are in love and seized an opportunity . it 'll never hold up in court . maxie : actually , according to this book , it will . i stayed up all night in my cell studying . you know , you always said i 'd be a good student once i found a subject that interested me . mcbain : words are coming out of your mouth . i still do n't know what you 're talking about . jason : not 10 minutes after you threatened to use me to get to sonny , i get picked up for questioning about franco 's death . mcbain : yeah ? jason : yeah . you 're ex - fbi . you can make things happen just like you got franco 's dna from a confidential file for sam . why would n't i think you would call the cops to reactivate a cold case ? mcbain : i could have . but i did n't . jason : then why 'd they haul me in months after the fact ? mcbain : maybe because you did it . sam : trust me , kristina , the last thing this family needs is any more media exposure . kristina : sorry . i disagree . you should all get ready for your close - ups . the cameras start rolling any minute . sonny : no , they 're not . because this attitude of yours , i 'm done with it . alexis : obviously , we need to talk about what happened at school with kristina off camera . kristina : what happened was that my mob lawyer mother allowed my mob boss father to bribe , intimidate , or otherwise threaten someone to let me into yale . sonny : we called in favors on your behalf , kristina . what 's wrong with that ? kristina : did it ever occur to either of you how humiliating it would be when people found out ? alexis : honey , i know , and we 're sorry . sonny : no , you 're sorry . i 'm not sorry . because i did what i thought was best for my daughter . kristina : then we 're in agreement . for once . this probably is the best thing that could have ever happened . sam : okay , that 's great . so , then , why are you so angry ? kristina : like molly says , when one door closes , another one opens . my college career may be over , but now i have a whole new future . sam : oh , no . oh , kristina . as you know , i got into reality tv , and trust me . it was a big mistake . i regret it . i think you 're going to do the same thing . i think you 're going to regret it . kristina : i disagree . sonny : you know what ? you should start listening more . that 's what you should do . alexis : hold it ! you are -- you are highly overreacting to a very unfortunate situation . kristina : unfortunate ? alexis : what your father and i did , we had the best of intentions , but it was misguided . kristina : he does n't think so . alexis : [ sighs ] he usually lets me take the lead when it comes to academics . kristina : so it was your idea to use extortion to get me into yale ? alexis : help . sonny : come here . get back . [ sighs ] all right , listen to me , okay ? you -- we gave you what you wanted . you made your choice , right ? you turned it down . do not expect me to apologize . kristina : why would i expect you to care how i feel about anything ? alexis : he cares . your father cares . i care . we call care , and in retrospect , we should have supported your decision to go into fashion . but it 's not too late . kristina : apparently , i have n't been clear . from now on , you do n't control me anymore . i 'm taking charge of my life and this project . sonny : this reality show is not gon na happen , okay ? 'cause we 're not putting our whole family on live tv for the whole world to see ! alexis : everyone , calm -- miss davis ? where would you like us to set up ? kristina : looks like we are . jason : well , at least you came at me directly this time instead of using sam . mcbain : hey , look . i do n't have any influence on some other police department , all right ? but if they had half a brain , you 'd be a reasonable suspect , do n't you think ? based on your previous history with franco ? jason : which you know so much about . mcbain : i think everybody knows you tried to kill franco on at least one prior occasion . why not try it again ? jason : what would you do if someone raped natalie ? you would kill him . sonny : get those cameras out of my face . kristina : this is my crew . they 're going to be following me around everywhere . it 's `` mob princess . `` rolling . kristina : hi . i 'm kristina corinthos - davis , mob princess . come on in and meet the gang , starting with -- the gangster . sonny : kristina , this is not how we handle things in this family . kristina : and how does this family handle things , daddy ? over sunday night dinners or chats in the den ? molly : um , well , actually , sometimes we do eat dinners together . i mean , we 're not very interesting . kristina : i 'm so sick and tired of pretending we 're the average american family when we 're so much more colorful . alexis : well , the average american family does n't threaten camera crews with injunctions and lawsuits . i want your names . sam : hey , kristina , can i talk to you , please ? kristina : unless everything 's all changed since the last time i was here , recovering from a life - threatening surgery from nearly getting blown up by a car bomb my dad meant for johnny zacchara . luke : for the last time , tracy , i did not kill anthony zacchara . why would i ? tracy : because you promised to get rid of him for me . luke : i promised to ship him off to timbuktu . tracy : actually , it was uruguay and that was just a cover story to placate me while you bumped him off . luke : hey , do n't try to pin this on me , lucretia . you 're the one who tried to poison him and then tried to brain him with an oar . tracy : [ sighs ] i did n't go through with that . luke : only because i stopped you . tracy : it is not in me to shoot him . luke : oh , please . i ca n't do this anymore . just no more games , okay ? will you swear to me that you did n't kill your husband ? tracy : i swear . luke : on what ? tracy : on -- everything i hold dear . luke : well , name something . oh , come on ! one thing ! some time tonight . tracy : on -- my father 's life . luke : oh , this from the woman who withheld heart medication while her father was having a coronary . tracy : that was a long time ago , and he was faking , okay ? luke : well , somebody else , then . come on . swear on someone . is n't there someone you truly love ? tracy : of course there is . anthony : i 'm here because you know i loved you , john . johnny : [ scoffs ] anthony : i devoted my life to you , and you murdered me for my trouble . now you 're drowning in remorse . johnny : remorse ? you think i can have remorse for a guy who pimped out his own daughter ? anthony : i never wanted claudia to sleep with gino . that was all her . johnny : you know , it 's a damn good thing for me that you 're such a loathful son of a bitch . so many people wanted you dead , i could hold a convention . anthony : if they do n't want you dead , you 're doing it wrong . johnny : not just your business associates , your wife . if you were still alive , i 'd -- i 'd send you a thank you note . anthony : is that gratitude ? i 'm shocked . johnny : if you had n't heard luke and tracy plotting to kill you , i would n't have the perfect scapegoats to frame for your murder . anthony : now , if only somebody could find my body . johnny : oh , you may not have made the news , but i 'll guaran - damn - tee you right about now , tracy and luke are demanding to see their lawyers . tracy : there is someone i truly love . luke : who ? tracy : my mother . i swear on the memory of lila quartermaine that i did not kill anthony . are you satisfied ? luke : good enough . tracy : okay , now . do you swear that you did not kill anthony ? luke : i do . tracy : on whose life ? your girlfriend , anna devane ? luke : anna and i are friends , and why do you care so much ? tracy : i do n't care , and stop changing the subject . did you kill anthony ? luke : i did not kill anthony zacchara . i swear on the lives of my three children , okay ? tracy : three children ? i thought it was two children ? the last one was supposed to be robert 's . luke : all right , then i swear on lucky and lulu . yeah ? tracy : okay . i believe you . but , if i did n't do it , you did n't do it -- luke : who did ? anthony : setting up luke and tracy was a smart move . johnny : [ chuckles ] you 're giving me credit for something . you must be dead . anthony : unfortunately -- johnny : here it comes . anthony : -- i doubt the charges are going to stick , and if they do n't , the cops will start looking elsewhere . johnny : let them look . there 's nothing that 's tying me to your murder , anyway . [ knock on door ] johnny : to what do i owe the pleasure ? dante : we 're here about your grandfather . anthony . johnny : come on in . dante : padilla , go take a look upstairs , will you ? johnny : what the hell is that ? dante : what do you think this is , a social visit , johnny ? i got a search warrant right here . johnny : yeah ? and what exactly is it that you 're searching for ? dante : anything , really , that would connect you to shooting out anthony 's tires , which caused the deaths of cole thornhart and his daughter . johnny : oh . well . fine . look around . i had nothing to do with that . dante : you sure about that ? i mean , you caused a pretty big scene at the metro court that night . i mean , you 're telling me you did n't want to kill your grandfather ? johnny : actually , if i 'm being honest with you , i wanted to see your father dead more than anybody . no offense . dante : none taken . johnny : was i angry at the guy ? sure . but you 're looking in the wrong place . dante : oh , so , where should we be looking ? johnny : maybe you should start with anthony 's wife , tracy ? and her ex , luke ? tracy : are you sure that one of your seafaring chums did n't get overzealous and bump him off ? luke : oh , no . the ship did n't even dock until after the body showed up . are you sure that it was n't one of the staff trying to cover your tracks ? alice , maybe ? tracy : unh - unh . they hated anthony , but they -- they would n't kill him . luke : even cook ? tracy : no , not with a gun . luke : well , he was a longtime criminal . he must have had plenty of enemies . but this just does n't -- does n't feel like a mob hit . tracy : i know who did it ! felicia : mac , is all this legal ? mac : i 'm not a lawyer , but this would n't be the first case to fall apart because of spousal privilege . maxie : if there 's no witness , there 's no case . i am loathe to admit this , but i must agree . even though miss jones -- maxie : mrs. hunter . she signed the agreement to testify as a single woman . but now , as dr. hunter 's wife , she ca n't be compelled to testify against her husband . felicia : will she have to go back to prison ? her release stands . patrick : and what about my brother ? we wo n't be moving forward with murder charges at this point . maxie : well , then i guess we 're all done here . i want to tell you something . i 'm going to do everything in my power to see to it that both of you and this fraudulent marriage are exposed -- maxie : it 's not fraudulent -- -- and i will see to it that lisa niles ' murderer is made to pay for his crime . and as for you , `` mrs. hunter , `` i 'll make sure you pay for your part in this charade , as well . maxie : and my little dog , too ? rosalyn : nice bit of legal maneuvering , mrs. hunter . maxie : what can i say ? you do what you got to do for the people you love . rosalyn : i 'll let alexis know . i 'm sure she 'll be pleased with the outcome . congratulations to both of you . maxie : i 'm free . god , i 'm really free . we both are . felicia : for now . the d.a . may make you pay for covering up for matt . maxie : why ? what we did is perfectly legal . they ca n't do that . spinelli : and when the statute of limitations is up for dr. niles ' murder , then you can have the marriage voided , so -- maxie : why would we do that ? mac : there is no statute of limitations on murder . spinelli : yeah , but , i mean , it was n't premeditated , so for a lesser charge of homicide , i 'm sure -- mac : sorry , spinelli . if maxie wants to guarantee that she 'll never have to testify against matt , they 'll have to stay married forever . mcbain : you 're making this personal . i would n't wish what happened to you and sam and franco on anyone , but it has nothing to do with me . jason : that 's right . you 're here for sonny . mcbain : exactly . jason : but you spend most of your time with sam . mcbain : she needed help . i was n't going to turn my back . jason : were you helping her when you fed the story to the paper ? mcbain : if you knew anything about me , you 'd know that 's now how i operate . jason : you said you want to take sonny down . you said it 'd be a bonus if you can use me to get to him , right ? 10 minutes later , i 'm arrested -- no charges that are going to stick . is that how you operate ? mcbain : you know , i do n't think i like you . but you also do n't strike me as the kind of guy that would look the other way while an innocent woman was murdered . jason : sonny did n't do it . mcbain : how do you know ? you were n't there . have you ever considered that you spent most of your life protecting a murderer ? jason : you know , the real question is , did you want me out of the way so you can get to sonny -- or so you can get to sam ? sam : kristina , can we go somewhere to talk , please ? just you and me . kristina : meet my sister , samantha mccall - morgan . we all call her `` sam , `` though . not a mob princess by birth , but she married into the royal family . her husband is my father 's number - one henchman . we call it an enforcer . can you say `` enforcer `` ? alexis : that 's it . kristina : and this is my little sister , molly lansing - davis . say hi to america , molly . molly : hi . kristina : actually , molly is my half sister . ric lansing is her father , who is my father 's half brother . there 's lots of halves here . and a mob lawyer , just like my mom , who obviously got knocked up by two mobster brothers . molly : kristina ! sonny : okay , this needs to stop , kristina . kristina : i 'm sorry , but you wo n't be able to meet my brothers today . happily , my brother michael is out of prison , though he only got sent there because of our dad . molly : kristina , stop ! kristina : and my little brother , morgan , is off at military school , stashed away somewhere , probably learning how to become a sniper , but we miss him dearly . alexis : stop it . kristina : but my oldest brother , dante , is a cop . the only member of our family on the right side of the law , which was the only reason my dad needed to shoot him . sonny : okay , you got to stop rolling these cameras ! kristina : keep rolling ! did i mention i 'm the product of a sleazy one - night stand ? alexis : that 's now how it happened . it 's not . kristina : and , of course , there 's dear old dad . sonny : you got to turn off these cameras . kristina : come on , dad . you used to be used to this by now -- all the cameras in your face and trials in the courthouse . sonny : i 'm going to warn you right now , if you do n't turn these cameras off , i will -- kristina : or you 'll what ? what ? dante : what are you talking about ? you 've been giving me the same song and dance that sonny 's the one who shot out anthony 's tires . even after he was acquitted , you kept saying that . now you 're changing your mind ? johnny : that was before , and then a few days ago , anthony showed up here scared out of his wits . said he overheard tracy and luke saying that they were trying to kill him . dante : were the suspicions grounded in anything real ? johnny : he said that they tried to bump him off twice already . dante : really ? and that did n't concern you ? johnny : what concerned me is anthony asked me for help , and that 's not something that he takes lightly . so , yeah , i volunteered to help him out . delores : who 's is this ? dante : that 's anthony 's . tracy : it was sonny . luke : did i not just say this does n't feel like a mob hit ? tracy : you were not there the night sonny showed up waving his gun around , threatening to kill anthony . luke : the night anthony 's tires got shot out ? tracy : absolutely . sonny was not calm and collected . he did n't care about covering up his tracks . he was fully prepared to shoot anthony , right there in the den . in retrospect , if i 'd let him do it , i would have saved myself a whole hell of a lot of trouble . luke : oh , i do n't know . tracy : sonny was probably waiting right here for anthony when he showed up in the boathouse . by the time his goons came to clean everything up , you and i had already gotten the body out of here , then the goons went up to the terrace , saw the body , and got rid of it . luke : no . no . no . if sonny had shot him , he would n't leave him laying here , and if he had left him laying here , he would have left a calling card , because mobsters do n't like to knock each other off and not take credit for it . tracy : uh - huh . i suppose you 're speaking from experience . luke : i told you i 'm no novice to this . if corinthos wanted to send a message , it would have been loud and clear . kristina : oh , my god , dad ! sonny : you 're lucky the camera 's the only thing that i broke . alexis : darn it ! not now ! sonny : listen to me , okay ? i know that you 're angry , but this is not you . sam : kristina , your father 's right . you have got to stop this . molly : please , ca n't we just talk this out ? alexis : sam . sam : what ? alexis : come here . sam : huh ? what 's going on ? alexis : i just got this from jason . he left it an hour ago , but with all of this stuff going on -- sam : what ? alexis : he 's been arrested in connection with franco 's death . mcbain : i 'm not having this conversation . jason : and all those times you just happened to run into sam , those were coincidences , right ? mcbain : yeah . but , for argument 's sake , say i was after sam . what would it matter ? she loves you , man . you 're the one she wants to be with . but you do n't want her talking to me . more importantly , you 've got a problem with this baby . maybe i get that . jason : maybe you do . i know you 've had your own paternity problems , made some headlines in llanview . mcbain : so , you see , i 've been on both sides of it , and that 's what sam and i were talking about . you want to make more out of it , that 's on you . but a word of advice -- jason : i do n't want your advice . mcbain : well , you know what ? you 're going to get it anyway . you lose sam , you 're going to be losing the best thing that ever happened to you and it wo n't be because of what i did . but because of what you did . patrick : can i borrow the groom ? maxie : by all means . felicia : congratulations . you became free then , not free in all of 30 minutes . [ chuckles ] maxie : please try to be happy for me . patrick : okay , i 'm going to ask you this once and then i 'm going to just drop it . do you think marrying maxie is the best way to solve this problem ? matt : there is so much that i 'm not sure of right now . i do n't remember killing lisa . i mean , maxie says she saw i did it , but honestly , i have no recollection of it . patrick : so is that a yes or a no ? matt : i know i can do a lot of good in this world . and not just for my patients , but for my brother . for my niece . and i love maxie . i mean , everything that she went through , everything she did for me , how could you not ? patrick : point taken . matt : i mean , i just got my life back . and i 'm going to make every second of it count . maxie : please understand i did n't have a choice . spinelli : you could have kept your part of the bargain . you could have told the truth as to what you witnessed . trusted matt 's attorneys to argue the mitigating factors of his inebriation and the -- the threat of dr. niles . that was a choice . maxie : i did what i had to do . spinelli : maxie . maxie , please . wait . there 's something i have to say . today 's workout hardcore ... maxie : what do you want ? spinelli : please , just think about what you 're doing . maxie : i did think about it , that 's why it worked . spinelli : maxie , you do n't have to marry matt if you do n't want to . maxie : why would n't i want to ? he 's everything a woman could want in a husband . spinelli : a liar and a murderer ? maxie : a good man who 's life should n't be ruined because he put a psychopath out of everyone 's misery . and , besides , i -- i love matt . spinelli : no , no ! you think you 're supposed to love him . there 's a difference . maxie : why would n't we get married ? spinelli : i think i , above anyone , have a pretty good idea of your misgivings for the marriage state . maxie , your fear that marriage is the beginning of the end for any relationship , your desire to fulfill the success of your career above everything else . marriage was something way down the line , if ever . maxie : i just moved up the timetable . spinelli : yeah , from `` maybe never `` to `` hurry before the hearing starts `` ! do you remember the troubles that you and matt had , the lack of trust ? maxie : i trust him now . spinelli : okay , well , what about his inability -- his refusal to commit in any real -- i just do n't want you to be unhappy . maxie : no , spinelli , you do n't want me to be happy with someone who is n't you . spinelli : if i believe for a second that you and matt hunter could build a life together , i would wish you well and hold my peace , but he is not up to the task . maxie : and you are ? spinelli : your happiness is all i 've ever wanted . and it is all i will ever want . do you remember at our non - wedding when we professed our love for one another and we vowed that we would have a real wedding one day ? i hang onto hope for that , 'cause you deserve a real wedding , a beautiful gown , flowers , music , dancing . and a husband who loves you . who will always be true to you . maxie : excuse me , spinelli . my husband and i have some celebrating to do . johnny : let me see that . dante : what ? you want to see it ? here . take a look . johnny : it 's anthony 's . dante : any idea where your father is , johnny ? johnny : no . i do n't know . he was here , and then he got a text message and he bolted . it must have been urgent 'cause he left his phone . dante : last text message was from tracy , `` meet me at the boathouse . `` delores : that 's where we found the blood . johnny : there was blood ? dante : we got an anonymous tip . someone heard gunshots at the quartermaine estate . johnny : but anthony was n't there . delores : actually , he was there with luke and tracy at the terrace when i questioned them . johnny : you spoke to him ? [ cell phone rings ] dante : yeah . falconeri . delores : actually , i did n't speak to him . he was sleeping . dante : thanks . johnny : huh . dante : blood in the boathouse was anthony 's . johnny : wow . that 's a pretty keen observation there , officer padilla . see , anthony was n't as much sleeping as he was dead . dante : all right , back off . johnny : back off ? dante : yeah , johnny . johnny : tracy and luke killed my grandfather and paraded his body right under your noses . tracy : [ laughs ] i just realized . i do n't care . whoever killed him did me a favor . [ sighs ] luke : well , i hate to spoil the merry widow 's merry mood , but whether you do n't care or not , we 've still got ourselves a big problem . we 've got the smoking gun . tracy : so ? luke : so we got to get rid of this murder weapon ! jason : quit interfering in sam 's life and mine . mcbain : do n't get between me and sonny . jason : you know , your time 's running out on that warrant . i guess you 're gon na have to leave port charles empty - handed . mcbain : thanks for stopping by . sam : hi . jason : hey . sam : my mom said that you had been arrested and she went to go bail you out , but you had already been released . jason : yeah . bernie arranged for bail and elizabeth drove up to beecher 's corners to post it . sam : elizabeth . jason : yeah , i did not want you involved . and i did n't want bernie to make the trip . he says he 's recovered from the gunshot , but i do n't want to take any chances . sam : right . jason : they got nothing -- no new evidence . sam : okay . well , franco died months ago . and if there 's no new evidence , then why are they questioning you ? jason : ask your friend mcbain . sonny : go . you guys get out of here . fun 's over ! kristina : you can smash as many cameras as you want . we 're just going to bring in more . the show 's happening . molly : that 's not fair . you never even asked . you just let them in . alexis : this is a complete invasion of privacy . i 'm not allowing it . kristina : here 's the deal . i move back in here with my crew , and not only will you allow it , you 'll all be part of my show . or -- i walk out that door and you 'll never see me again . spinelli : um , commissioner ? felicia ? i 'm sure that you agree that this marriage can only be detrimental to maxie , right ? is there anything that you can do to convince her it 's a mistake ? felicia : i do n't know if it 's a mistake . but you know she 's not gon na listen to me . spinelli : commissioner ? mac : look , you said it yourself , spinelli . the more i object , the more stubborn she gets . spinelli : yeah , but she can never be happy with him . mac : i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry . i know how you feel about maxie , but this marriage is a done deal . felicia : done deal or not , you do n't approve of what maxie did , do you ? mac : you know , i 'm glad to have maxie out of pentonville under any circumstances . and i do n't wish any harm to matt . felicia : but ? mac : but i [ snorts ] i do n't think he 's anywhere near good enough for maxie . besides , i ran the lisa niles investigation . felicia : maxie and robin were suspects . mac : i was worried that one of them could have done it . but once i realize my girls were innocent , i just wanted to do my job and bring the killer to justice . [ sighs ] but i was police commissioner then . now i guess it really should n't matter so much anymore . felicia : first you lose your job and then our maxie is set free . hell of a day . mac : hell of a day ! hell of a day . felicia : do you want to have a drink ? it 'll be like old times . mac : sure . why not ? felicia : [ chuckles ] spinelli : what matt and maxie are doing is wrong , right ? i mean , marriage is sacred . you of all people should know that . patrick : it is . it 's supposed to be . but who am i to judge how matt and maxie got here ? spinelli : no , on the contrary , your marriage with dr. robin makes you well- qualified to offer comment . patrick : spinelli , i never thought that i 'd be married to one person and be happy . if they find an ounce of that happiness that i had , then , i 'm sorry , they got my blessing . maxie , um , congratulations . maxie : thank you , patrick . patrick : okay . maxie : hey , uh , let 's get out of here . i mean , right now the only thing i want to do is take a shower without 10 other women with names like tiny and kino . matt : anything you want , mrs. hunter . maxie : let 's go home . matt : your place or mine ? maxie : hmm -- ours , whichever that might be . matt : i like that . kristina : you mad at me ? molly : would it matter if i was ? you 're so caught up in your own drama , you do n't care what you 're doing to anyone else . kristina : i know this is n't fair for you and sam . i 'm just trying to get back at my parents . molly : yeah , you 've made your point . mom and sonny are upset . are you really going to go through with this ? kristina : everybody at yale thinks i 'm a mob princess , and that 's exactly what i 'm going to be . do n't worry . this will be fun for you . molly : it 's not so far . kristina : you created a fairytale for yourself your whole life . welcome to reality . alexis : i should never have let you do whatever it is that you did . i have lost all moral authority with her . she now sees first - hand that i practice situational ethics . sonny : she 's threatening to put our family on national television . this has to be stopped . alexis : we lied to her . she 's humiliated . sonny : why ? because we sent her to college ? alexis : because we stacked the deck . you know , it 's going to be a long time before she forgives us . but the good news is she 's still talking to us . sonny : if you call blackmailing talking . alexis : you blackmail me , she blackmails you -- it 's all in the dna . you heard her . if we do n't do this , she 's leaving . sonny : we ca n't do it ! we ca n't do it ! alexis : we ca n't not do it . i am not losing her ! i wo n't lose my kid . you do n't just walk out on somebody you love . mcbain : natalie . i was hoping you 'd pick up . at least now you can listen to my groveling over and over again . i 'm sorry about how we left things beforehand . i know things are crazy right now . please hang in there with me . i do n't want to lose you . please call me . sam : wait a minute , you think john tipped off the police ? jason : he says he did n't . he also says he did n't plant the article in the newspaper . sam : well , maybe it was n't him . jason : sam , please . you got to be careful . john mcbain is a cop . you 're trusting the wrong person . johnny : luke and tracy moved the body . why ? you find a body in a boathouse , you report it . anthony : good citizens are so hard to find these days . johnny : i just hope i led the cops in the right direction . anthony : there 's only one problem , john . luke and tracy did n't kill me , and they know it . it 's only a matter of time before the cops know it , too . tracy : are you sure the police wo n't find it ? luke : it 's a tiny little gun in a great big body of water . unless they have reason to send a diver down , nobody will ever find it . dante : police ! freeze ! luke : [ sighs ] dante : padilla . delores : got it . dante : tracy quartermaine and luke spencer , i got to take you in on suspicion of foul play in the disappearance of anthony zacchara . | maxie tells the prosecuting attorney that she does n't have to testify against her husband . she and matt have just returned from getting married at the justice of the peace in the court building . matt produces the marriage license . the prosecuting attorney admits that he ca n't compel a wife to testify against her husband , but he vows to expose their marriage as fraudulent and make them both pay . mac says there is no statute of limitations for murder so the only way to ensure that maxie never has to testify against matt is for them to stay married forever . maxie asks mac to be happy for her . she says she did n't have a choice . spinelli says she could have chosen to keep her end of the bargain and let matt 's lawyers argue the mitigating factors of the case . | <s>[INST] maxie : actually , i do n't have to testify . i did some research and a wife does n't have testify against her husband . felicia : oh , my -- spinelli : you and -- you and matt are married ? maxie : we sure are . spinelli : that 's impossible . you were only gone for that short recess . maxie : it does n't take long to say `` i do , `` especially with the justice of the peace in the same building . patrick : matt , is this true ? did you get married ? matt : i did . maxie : now , since i wo n't be testifying against matt and there are no other witnesses of his alleged killing of lisa niles , i assume you 'll be dropping all murder charges against my husband . dante : thank you , judge . thank you . okay . you , too . take care . bye - bye . padilla , i 'm glad you 're back . where you been ? delores : i was following up on that anonymous tip about shots fired in the quartermaine estate . get this -- we found a bloodstain in the boathouse . i 'm having the lab analyze it before we run it through the system . dante : what do the quartermaines have to say ? delores : i spoke to everybody in that house . nobody saw or heard anything out of the ordinary . tracy : [ gasps ] [ sighs ] you scared the hell out of me . luke : i take it you did n't find the body . tracy : i did not , and i take it you did n't find him , either , so where is my dead husband ? luke : it 's hard enough for a living person to disappear , but a dead one ? tracy : we left him on the terrace . there 's no way he could stand up and walk away , unless -- luke : unless what ? tracy : he was n't really dead ? johnny : still nothing . damn it . anthony : what 's the matter ? [ chuckles ] you worried that my death has n't been reported yet ? johnny : you 're a high - profile crime figure . you -- you 'd think that you being shot to death would at least make the local news . anthony : maybe the cops have n't found my body yet . johnny : but i called the cops with that anonymous tip . i practically told them where i put your body . i mean , what are they waiting for ? an engraved invitation ? anthony : what did i always tell you ? no matter how well you plan something , there 's no accounting for the element -- of surprise ! jason : i was just hauled in by the cops on suspicion of murdering franco . mcbain : and ? jason : they were acting on an anonymous tip -- from you . molly : so , if you 're not pregnant , what 's this family project ? kristina : exactly what it sounds like . a project that involves the whole family -- ours -- and yours . sonny : can you be a little more specific , kristina ? kristina : the grad student i mentioned ? sonny : mm - hmm . kristina : he 's in media studies , and he has a great new idea for a new reality show . molly : a reality show ? kristina : about us . with me as the star . it 's going to be called `` mob princess . `` could it be any more perfect ? sonny : what the hell are you talking about ? alexis : the media is glutted with shows about desperate people who will do anything to get on tv , and while i think the idea of a reality show called `` mob princess `` would appeal to the lowest common denominator , i 'm quite certain she 's joking . kristina : i 'm dead serious . i 'm shooting a reality show about my life . blair : i phrased that last description so that in case you were n't joking , you would see that it 's a really , really bad idea . kristina : well , i think it 's a really , really good idea . but do n't worry . i 'm not going to steal the limelight . i 'm going to have a fabulous supporting cast . you . and you . and you . and you . luke : trust me , tracy . anthony did n't get up off that lounge chair and just stroll away on his own . tracy : all right , then what happened to him ? luke : well , obviously , somebody moved him . maybe one of the staff ? tracy : yeah . the gardener . he planted him . luke : okay . some fresh , young stud with a shovel , anxious to please the mistress by helping her hide the murdered husband . tracy : first of all , the staff hates me . if they do n't , monica fires them . second of all , i did not have time to talk to the gardener or anybody else , for that matter , about anthony . luke : you could have sent him a text . tracy : and lastly , i did not kill my husband , which means -- you did . dante : while we 're waiting on the lab results , why do n't we go on a little field trip ? delores : where to ? dante : john zacchara 's got judge harkness to sign off on a search warrant . delores : for johnny 's place ? why ? dante : we still have n't found out whoever shot out anthony 's tires , and they caused the death of cole thornhart and his daughter , hope . delores : i know , but do you think johnny did it ? dante : i have n't totally ruled out kate howard . i wanted to question her after she was booked for assaulting her shrink , but then she was moved to shadybrook . right now , johnny 's our guy . delores : but he 's got an alibi . dante : carly jacks ? she lies more than anyone i 've ever met . carly as an alibi is totally meaningless to me . delores : even if you 're right , it 's been months since the accident . do you think there 's gon na be any evidence left at his apartment ? dante : let 's go find out . johnny : i do n't get it . i planted your body in that boathouse . i called the cops with the anonymous tip . the morons still have n't found you yet . anthony : you probably screwed it up . you always do . like that last time you tried to take me out and ended up killing those kids instead . johnny : shut the hell up ! anthony : or what ? you 'll kill me again ? johnny : if only i could . anthony : that 's cold , john . sounds like you got no conscience . johnny : i do n't . not when it comes to you . anthony : [ chuckles ] if that 's true , what am i doing here ? so what kind of game -- matt : no game . no game . maxie is now mrs. matthew hunter . i 'm gon na move to see to it that you are disbarred for this ridiculous stunt . rosalyn : i had nothing to do with this . maxie : quan had nothing to do with this . matt and i are in love and seized an opportunity . it 'll never hold up in court . maxie : actually , according to this book , it will . i stayed up all night in my cell studying . you know , you always said i 'd be a good student once i found a subject that interested me . mcbain : words are coming out of your mouth . i still do n't know what you 're talking about . jason : not 10 minutes after you threatened to use me to get to sonny , i get picked up for questioning about franco 's death . mcbain : yeah ? jason : yeah . you 're ex - fbi . you can make things happen just like you got franco 's dna from a confidential file for sam . why would n't i think you would call the cops to reactivate a cold case ? mcbain : i could have . but i did n't . jason : then why 'd they haul me in months after the fact ? mcbain : maybe because you did it . sam : trust me , kristina , the last thing this family needs is any more media exposure . kristina : sorry . i disagree . you should all get ready for your close - ups . the cameras start rolling any minute . sonny : no , they 're not . because this attitude of yours , i 'm done with it . alexis : obviously , we need to talk about what happened at school with kristina off camera . kristina : what happened was that my mob lawyer mother allowed my mob boss father to bribe , intimidate , or otherwise threaten someone to let me into yale . sonny : we called in favors on your behalf , kristina . what 's wrong with that ? kristina : did it ever occur to either of you how humiliating it would be when people found out ? alexis : honey , i know , and we 're sorry . sonny : no , you 're sorry . i 'm not sorry . because i did what i thought was best for my daughter . kristina : then we 're in agreement . for once . this probably is the best thing that could have ever happened . sam : okay , that 's great . so , then , why are you so angry ? kristina : like molly says , when one door closes , another one opens . my college career may be over , but now i have a whole new future . sam : oh , no . oh , kristina . as you know , i got into reality tv , and trust me . it was a big mistake . i regret it . i think you 're going to do the same thing . i think you 're going to regret it . kristina : i disagree . sonny : you know what ? you should start listening more . that 's what you should do . alexis : hold it ! you are -- you are highly overreacting to a very unfortunate situation . kristina : unfortunate ? alexis : what your father and i did , we had the best of intentions , but it was misguided . kristina : he does n't think so . alexis : [ sighs ] he usually lets me take the lead when it comes to academics . kristina : so it was your idea to use extortion to get me into yale ? alexis : help . sonny : come here . get back . [ sighs ] all right , listen to me , okay ? you -- we gave you what you wanted . you made your choice , right ? you turned it down . do not expect me to apologize . kristina : why would i expect you to care how i feel about anything ? alexis : he cares . your father cares . i care . we call care , and in retrospect , we should have supported your decision to go into fashion . but it 's not too late . kristina : apparently , i have n't been clear . from now on , you do n't control me anymore . i 'm taking charge of my life and this project . sonny : this reality show is not gon na happen , okay ? 'cause we 're not putting our whole family on live tv for the whole world to see ! alexis : everyone , calm -- miss davis ? where would you like us to set up ? kristina : looks like we are . jason : well , at least you came at me directly this time instead of using sam . mcbain : hey , look . i do n't have any influence on some other police department , all right ? but if they had half a brain , you 'd be a reasonable suspect , do n't you think ? based on your previous history with franco ? jason : which you know so much about . mcbain : i think everybody knows you tried to kill franco on at least one prior occasion . why not try it again ? jason : what would you do if someone raped natalie ? you would kill him . sonny : get those cameras out of my face . kristina : this is my crew . they 're going to be following me around everywhere . it 's `` mob princess . `` rolling . kristina : hi . i 'm kristina corinthos - davis , mob princess . come on in and meet the gang , starting with -- the gangster . sonny : kristina , this is not how we handle things in this family . kristina : and how does this family handle things , daddy ? over sunday night dinners or chats in the den ? molly : um , well , actually , sometimes we do eat dinners together . i mean , we 're not very interesting . kristina : i 'm so sick and tired of pretending we 're the average american family when we 're so much more colorful . alexis : well , the average american family does n't threaten camera crews with injunctions and lawsuits . i want your names . sam : hey , kristina , can i talk to you , please ? kristina : unless everything 's all changed since the last time i was here , recovering from a life - threatening surgery from nearly getting blown up by a car bomb my dad meant for johnny zacchara . luke : for the last time , tracy , i did not kill anthony zacchara . why would i ? tracy : because you promised to get rid of him for me . luke : i promised to ship him off to timbuktu . tracy : actually , it was uruguay and that was just a cover story to placate me while you bumped him off . luke : hey , do n't try to pin this on me , lucretia . you 're the one who tried to poison him and then tried to brain him with an oar . tracy : [ sighs ] i did n't go through with that . luke : only because i stopped you . tracy : it is not in me to shoot him . luke : oh , please . i ca n't do this anymore . just no more games , okay ? will you swear to me that you did n't kill your husband ? tracy : i swear . luke : on what ? tracy : on -- everything i hold dear . luke : well , name something . oh , come on ! one thing ! some time tonight . tracy : on -- my father 's life . luke : oh , this from the woman who withheld heart medication while her father was having a coronary . tracy : that was a long time ago , and he was faking , okay ? luke : well , somebody else , then . come on . swear on someone . is n't there someone you truly love ? tracy : of course there is . anthony : i 'm here because you know i loved you , john . johnny : [ scoffs ] anthony : i devoted my life to you , and you murdered me for my trouble . now you 're drowning in remorse . johnny : remorse ? you think i can have remorse for a guy who pimped out his own daughter ? anthony : i never wanted claudia to sleep with gino . that was all her . johnny : you know , it 's a damn good thing for me that you 're such a loathful son of a bitch . so many people wanted you dead , i could hold a convention . anthony : if they do n't want you dead , you 're doing it wrong . johnny : not just your business associates , your wife . if you were still alive , i 'd -- i 'd send you a thank you note . anthony : is that gratitude ? i 'm shocked . johnny : if you had n't heard luke and tracy plotting to kill you , i would n't have the perfect scapegoats to frame for your murder . anthony : now , if only somebody could find my body . johnny : oh , you may not have made the news , but i 'll guaran - damn - tee you right about now , tracy and luke are demanding to see their lawyers . tracy : there is someone i truly love . luke : who ? tracy : my mother . i swear on the memory of lila quartermaine that i did not kill anthony . are you satisfied ? luke : good enough . tracy : okay , now . do you swear that you did not kill anthony ? luke : i do . tracy : on whose life ? your girlfriend , anna devane ? luke : anna and i are friends , and why do you care so much ? tracy : i do n't care , and stop changing the subject . did you kill anthony ? luke : i did not kill anthony zacchara . i swear on the lives of my three children , okay ? tracy : three children ? i thought it was two children ? the last one was supposed to be robert 's . luke : all right , then i swear on lucky and lulu . yeah ? tracy : okay . i believe you . but , if i did n't do it , you did n't do it -- luke : who did ? anthony : setting up luke and tracy was a smart move . johnny : [ chuckles ] you 're giving me credit for something . you must be dead . anthony : unfortunately -- johnny : here it comes . anthony : -- i doubt the charges are going to stick , and if they do n't , the cops will start looking elsewhere . johnny : let them look . there 's nothing that 's tying me to your murder , anyway . [ knock on door ] johnny : to what do i owe the pleasure ? dante : we 're here about your grandfather . anthony . johnny : come on in . dante : padilla , go take a look upstairs , will you ? johnny : what the hell is that ? dante : what do you think this is , a social visit , johnny ? i got a search warrant right here . johnny : yeah ? and what exactly is it that you 're searching for ? dante : anything , really , that would connect you to shooting out anthony 's tires , which caused the deaths of cole thornhart and his daughter . johnny : oh . well . fine . look around . i had nothing to do with that . dante : you sure about that ? i mean , you caused a pretty big scene at the metro court that night . i mean , you 're telling me you did n't want to kill your grandfather ? johnny : actually , if i 'm being honest with you , i wanted to see your father dead more than anybody . no offense . dante : none taken . johnny : was i angry at the guy ? sure . but you 're looking in the wrong place . dante : oh , so , where should we be looking ? johnny : maybe you should start with anthony 's wife , tracy ? and her ex , luke ? tracy : are you sure that one of your seafaring chums did n't get overzealous and bump him off ? luke : oh , no . the ship did n't even dock until after the body showed up . are you sure that it was n't one of the staff trying to cover your tracks ? alice , maybe ? tracy : unh - unh . they hated anthony , but they -- they would n't kill him . luke : even cook ? tracy : no , not with a gun . luke : well , he was a longtime criminal . he must have had plenty of enemies . but this just does n't -- does n't feel like a mob hit . tracy : i know who did it ! felicia : mac , is all this legal ? mac : i 'm not a lawyer , but this would n't be the first case to fall apart because of spousal privilege . maxie : if there 's no witness , there 's no case . i am loathe to admit this , but i must agree . even though miss jones -- maxie : mrs. hunter . she signed the agreement to testify as a single woman . but now , as dr. hunter 's wife , she ca n't be compelled to testify against her husband . felicia : will she have to go back to prison ? her release stands . patrick : and what about my brother ? we wo n't be moving forward with murder charges at this point . maxie : well , then i guess we 're all done here . i want to tell you something . i 'm going to do everything in my power to see to it that both of you and this fraudulent marriage are exposed -- maxie : it 's not fraudulent -- -- and i will see to it that lisa niles ' murderer is made to pay for his crime . and as for you , `` mrs. hunter , `` i 'll make sure you pay for your part in this charade , as well . maxie : and my little dog , too ? rosalyn : nice bit of legal maneuvering , mrs. hunter . maxie : what can i say ? you do what you got to do for the people you love . rosalyn : i 'll let alexis know . i 'm sure she 'll be pleased with the outcome . congratulations to both of you . maxie : i 'm free . god , i 'm really free . we both are . felicia : for now . the d.a . may make you pay for covering up for matt . maxie : why ? what we did is perfectly legal . they ca n't do that . spinelli : and when the statute of limitations is up for dr. niles ' murder , then you can have the marriage voided , so -- maxie : why would we do that ? mac : there is no statute of limitations on murder . spinelli : yeah , but , i mean , it was n't premeditated , so for a lesser charge of homicide , i 'm sure -- mac : sorry , spinelli . if maxie wants to guarantee that she 'll never have to testify against matt , they 'll have to stay married forever . mcbain : you 're making this personal . i would n't wish what happened to you and sam and franco on anyone , but it has nothing to do with me . jason : that 's right . you 're here for sonny . mcbain : exactly . jason : but you spend most of your time with sam . mcbain : she needed help . i was n't going to turn my back . jason : were you helping her when you fed the story to the paper ? mcbain : if you knew anything about me , you 'd know that 's now how i operate . jason : you said you want to take sonny down . you said it 'd be a bonus if you can use me to get to him , right ? 10 minutes later , i 'm arrested -- no charges that are going to stick . is that how you operate ? mcbain : you know , i do n't think i like you . but you also do n't strike me as the kind of guy that would look the other way while an innocent woman was murdered . jason : sonny did n't do it . mcbain : how do you know ? you were n't there . have you ever considered that you spent most of your life protecting a murderer ? jason : you know , the real question is , did you want me out of the way so you can get to sonny -- or so you can get to sam ? sam : kristina , can we go somewhere to talk , please ? just you and me . kristina : meet my sister , samantha mccall - morgan . we all call her `` sam , `` though . not a mob princess by birth , but she married into the royal family . her husband is my father 's number - one henchman . we call it an enforcer . can you say `` enforcer `` ? alexis : that 's it . kristina : and this is my little sister , molly lansing - davis . say hi to america , molly . molly : hi . kristina : actually , molly is my half sister . ric lansing is her father , who is my father 's half brother . there 's lots of halves here . and a mob lawyer , just like my mom , who obviously got knocked up by two mobster brothers . molly : kristina ! sonny : okay , this needs to stop , kristina . kristina : i 'm sorry , but you wo n't be able to meet my brothers today . happily , my brother michael is out of prison , though he only got sent there because of our dad . molly : kristina , stop ! kristina : and my little brother , morgan , is off at military school , stashed away somewhere , probably learning how to become a sniper , but we miss him dearly . alexis : stop it . kristina : but my oldest brother , dante , is a cop . the only member of our family on the right side of the law , which was the only reason my dad needed to shoot him . sonny : okay , you got to stop rolling these cameras ! kristina : keep rolling ! did i mention i 'm the product of a sleazy one - night stand ? alexis : that 's now how it happened . it 's not . kristina : and , of course , there 's dear old dad . sonny : you got to turn off these cameras . kristina : come on , dad . you used to be used to this by now -- all the cameras in your face and trials in the courthouse . sonny : i 'm going to warn you right now , if you do n't turn these cameras off , i will -- kristina : or you 'll what ? what ? dante : what are you talking about ? you 've been giving me the same song and dance that sonny 's the one who shot out anthony 's tires . even after he was acquitted , you kept saying that . now you 're changing your mind ? johnny : that was before , and then a few days ago , anthony showed up here scared out of his wits . said he overheard tracy and luke saying that they were trying to kill him . dante : were the suspicions grounded in anything real ? johnny : he said that they tried to bump him off twice already . dante : really ? and that did n't concern you ? johnny : what concerned me is anthony asked me for help , and that 's not something that he takes lightly . so , yeah , i volunteered to help him out . delores : who 's is this ? dante : that 's anthony 's . tracy : it was sonny . luke : did i not just say this does n't feel like a mob hit ? tracy : you were not there the night sonny showed up waving his gun around , threatening to kill anthony . luke : the night anthony 's tires got shot out ? tracy : absolutely . sonny was not calm and collected . he did n't care about covering up his tracks . he was fully prepared to shoot anthony , right there in the den . in retrospect , if i 'd let him do it , i would have saved myself a whole hell of a lot of trouble . luke : oh , i do n't know . tracy : sonny was probably waiting right here for anthony when he showed up in the boathouse . by the time his goons came to clean everything up , you and i had already gotten the body out of here , then the goons went up to the terrace , saw the body , and got rid of it . luke : no . no . no . if sonny had shot him , he would n't leave him laying here , and if he had left him laying here , he would have left a calling card , because mobsters do n't like to knock each other off and not take credit for it . tracy : uh - huh . i suppose you 're speaking from experience . luke : i told you i 'm no novice to this . if corinthos wanted to send a message , it would have been loud and clear . kristina : oh , my god , dad ! sonny : you 're lucky the camera 's the only thing that i broke . alexis : darn it ! not now ! sonny : listen to me , okay ? i know that you 're angry , but this is not you . sam : kristina , your father 's right . you have got to stop this . molly : please , ca n't we just talk this out ? alexis : sam . sam : what ? alexis : come here . sam : huh ? what 's going on ? alexis : i just got this from jason . he left it an hour ago , but with all of this stuff going on -- sam : what ? alexis : he 's been arrested in connection with franco 's death . mcbain : i 'm not having this conversation . jason : and all those times you just happened to run into sam , those were coincidences , right ? mcbain : yeah . but , for argument 's sake , say i was after sam . what would it matter ? she loves you , man . you 're the one she wants to be with . but you do n't want her talking to me . more importantly , you 've got a problem with this baby . maybe i get that . jason : maybe you do . i know you 've had your own paternity problems , made some headlines in llanview . mcbain : so , you see , i 've been on both sides of it , and that 's what sam and i were talking about . you want to make more out of it , that 's on you . but a word of advice -- jason : i do n't want your advice . mcbain : well , you know what ? you 're going to get it anyway . you lose sam , you 're going to be losing the best thing that ever happened to you and it wo n't be because of what i did . but because of what you did . patrick : can i borrow the groom ? maxie : by all means . felicia : congratulations . you became free then , not free in all of 30 minutes . [ chuckles ] maxie : please try to be happy for me . patrick : okay , i 'm going to ask you this once and then i 'm going to just drop it . do you think marrying maxie is the best way to solve this problem ? matt : there is so much that i 'm not sure of right now . i do n't remember killing lisa . i mean , maxie says she saw i did it , but honestly , i have no recollection of it . patrick : so is that a yes or a no ? matt : i know i can do a lot of good in this world . and not just for my patients , but for my brother . for my niece . and i love maxie . i mean , everything that she went through , everything she did for me , how could you not ? patrick : point taken . matt : i mean , i just got my life back . and i 'm going to make every second of it count . maxie : please understand i did n't have a choice . spinelli : you could have kept your part of the bargain . you could have told the truth as to what you witnessed . trusted matt 's attorneys to argue the mitigating factors of his inebriation and the -- the threat of dr. niles . that was a choice . maxie : i did what i had to do . spinelli : maxie . maxie , please . wait . there 's something i have to say . today 's workout hardcore ... maxie : what do you want ? spinelli : please , just think about what you 're doing . maxie : i did think about it , that 's why it worked . spinelli : maxie , you do n't have to marry matt if you do n't want to . maxie : why would n't i want to ? he 's everything a woman could want in a husband . spinelli : a liar and a murderer ? maxie : a good man who 's life should n't be ruined because he put a psychopath out of everyone 's misery . and , besides , i -- i love matt . spinelli : no , no ! you think you 're supposed to love him . there 's a difference . maxie : why would n't we get married ? spinelli : i think i , above anyone , have a pretty good idea of your misgivings for the marriage state . maxie , your fear that marriage is the beginning of the end for any relationship , your desire to fulfill the success of your career above everything else . marriage was something way down the line , if ever . maxie : i just moved up the timetable . spinelli : yeah , from `` maybe never `` to `` hurry before the hearing starts `` ! do you remember the troubles that you and matt had , the lack of trust ? maxie : i trust him now . spinelli : okay , well , what about his inability -- his refusal to commit in any real -- i just do n't want you to be unhappy . maxie : no , spinelli , you do n't want me to be happy with someone who is n't you . spinelli : if i believe for a second that you and matt hunter could build a life together , i would wish you well and hold my peace , but he is not up to the task . maxie : and you are ? spinelli : your happiness is all i 've ever wanted . and it is all i will ever want . do you remember at our non - wedding when we professed our love for one another and we vowed that we would have a real wedding one day ? i hang onto hope for that , 'cause you deserve a real wedding , a beautiful gown , flowers , music , dancing . and a husband who loves you . who will always be true to you . maxie : excuse me , spinelli . my husband and i have some celebrating to do . johnny : let me see that . dante : what ? you want to see it ? here . take a look . johnny : it 's anthony 's . dante : any idea where your father is , johnny ? johnny : no . i do n't know . he was here , and then he got a text message and he bolted . it must have been urgent 'cause he left his phone . dante : last text message was from tracy , `` meet me at the boathouse . `` delores : that 's where we found the blood . johnny : there was blood ? dante : we got an anonymous tip . someone heard gunshots at the quartermaine estate . johnny : but anthony was n't there . delores : actually , he was there with luke and tracy at the terrace when i questioned them . johnny : you spoke to him ? [ cell phone rings ] dante : yeah . falconeri . delores : actually , i did n't speak to him . he was sleeping . dante : thanks . johnny : huh . dante : blood in the boathouse was anthony 's . johnny : wow . that 's a pretty keen observation there , officer padilla . see , anthony was n't as much sleeping as he was dead . dante : all right , back off . johnny : back off ? dante : yeah , johnny . johnny : tracy and luke killed my grandfather and paraded his body right under your noses . tracy : [ laughs ] i just realized . i do n't care . whoever killed him did me a favor . [ sighs ] luke : well , i hate to spoil the merry widow 's merry mood , but whether you do n't care or not , we 've still got ourselves a big problem . we 've got the smoking gun . tracy : so ? luke : so we got to get rid of this murder weapon ! jason : quit interfering in sam 's life and mine . mcbain : do n't get between me and sonny . jason : you know , your time 's running out on that warrant . i guess you 're gon na have to leave port charles empty - handed . mcbain : thanks for stopping by . sam : hi . jason : hey . sam : my mom said that you had been arrested and she went to go bail you out , but you had already been released . jason : yeah . bernie arranged for bail and elizabeth drove up to beecher 's corners to post it . sam : elizabeth . jason : yeah , i did not want you involved . and i did n't want bernie to make the trip . he says he 's recovered from the gunshot , but i do n't want to take any chances . sam : right . jason : they got nothing -- no new evidence . sam : okay . well , franco died months ago . and if there 's no new evidence , then why are they questioning you ? jason : ask your friend mcbain . sonny : go . you guys get out of here . fun 's over ! kristina : you can smash as many cameras as you want . we 're just going to bring in more . the show 's happening . molly : that 's not fair . you never even asked . you just let them in . alexis : this is a complete invasion of privacy . i 'm not allowing it . kristina : here 's the deal . i move back in here with my crew , and not only will you allow it , you 'll all be part of my show . or -- i walk out that door and you 'll never see me again . spinelli : um , commissioner ? felicia ? i 'm sure that you agree that this marriage can only be detrimental to maxie , right ? is there anything that you can do to convince her it 's a mistake ? felicia : i do n't know if it 's a mistake . but you know she 's not gon na listen to me . spinelli : commissioner ? mac : look , you said it yourself , spinelli . the more i object , the more stubborn she gets . spinelli : yeah , but she can never be happy with him . mac : i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry . i know how you feel about maxie , but this marriage is a done deal . felicia : done deal or not , you do n't approve of what maxie did , do you ? mac : you know , i 'm glad to have maxie out of pentonville under any circumstances . and i do n't wish any harm to matt . felicia : but ? mac : but i [ snorts ] i do n't think he 's anywhere near good enough for maxie . besides , i ran the lisa niles investigation . felicia : maxie and robin were suspects . mac : i was worried that one of them could have done it . but once i realize my girls were innocent , i just wanted to do my job and bring the killer to justice . [ sighs ] but i was police commissioner then . now i guess it really should n't matter so much anymore . felicia : first you lose your job and then our maxie is set free . hell of a day . mac : hell of a day ! hell of a day . felicia : do you want to have a drink ? it 'll be like old times . mac : sure . why not ? felicia : [ chuckles ] spinelli : what matt and maxie are doing is wrong , right ? i mean , marriage is sacred . you of all people should know that . patrick : it is . it 's supposed to be . but who am i to judge how matt and maxie got here ? spinelli : no , on the contrary , your marriage with dr. robin makes you well- qualified to offer comment . patrick : spinelli , i never thought that i 'd be married to one person and be happy . if they find an ounce of that happiness that i had , then , i 'm sorry , they got my blessing . maxie , um , congratulations . maxie : thank you , patrick . patrick : okay . maxie : hey , uh , let 's get out of here . i mean , right now the only thing i want to do is take a shower without 10 other women with names like tiny and kino . matt : anything you want , mrs. hunter . maxie : let 's go home . matt : your place or mine ? maxie : hmm -- ours , whichever that might be . matt : i like that . kristina : you mad at me ? molly : would it matter if i was ? you 're so caught up in your own drama , you do n't care what you 're doing to anyone else . kristina : i know this is n't fair for you and sam . i 'm just trying to get back at my parents . molly : yeah , you 've made your point . mom and sonny are upset . are you really going to go through with this ? kristina : everybody at yale thinks i 'm a mob princess , and that 's exactly what i 'm going to be . do n't worry . this will be fun for you . molly : it 's not so far . kristina : you created a fairytale for yourself your whole life . welcome to reality . alexis : i should never have let you do whatever it is that you did . i have lost all moral authority with her . she now sees first - hand that i practice situational ethics . sonny : she 's threatening to put our family on national television . this has to be stopped . alexis : we lied to her . she 's humiliated . sonny : why ? because we sent her to college ? alexis : because we stacked the deck . you know , it 's going to be a long time before she forgives us . but the good news is she 's still talking to us . sonny : if you call blackmailing talking . alexis : you blackmail me , she blackmails you -- it 's all in the dna . you heard her . if we do n't do this , she 's leaving . sonny : we ca n't do it ! we ca n't do it ! alexis : we ca n't not do it . i am not losing her ! i wo n't lose my kid . you do n't just walk out on somebody you love . mcbain : natalie . i was hoping you 'd pick up . at least now you can listen to my groveling over and over again . i 'm sorry about how we left things beforehand . i know things are crazy right now . please hang in there with me . i do n't want to lose you . please call me . sam : wait a minute , you think john tipped off the police ? jason : he says he did n't . he also says he did n't plant the article in the newspaper . sam : well , maybe it was n't him . jason : sam , please . you got to be careful . john mcbain is a cop . you 're trusting the wrong person . johnny : luke and tracy moved the body . why ? you find a body in a boathouse , you report it . anthony : good citizens are so hard to find these days . johnny : i just hope i led the cops in the right direction . anthony : there 's only one problem , john . luke and tracy did n't kill me , and they know it . it 's only a matter of time before the cops know it , too . tracy : are you sure the police wo n't find it ? luke : it 's a tiny little gun in a great big body of water . unless they have reason to send a diver down , nobody will ever find it . dante : police ! freeze ! luke : [ sighs ] dante : padilla . delores : got it . dante : tracy quartermaine and luke spencer , i got to take you in on suspicion of foul play in the disappearance of anthony zacchara .Summarize.[/INST]maxie tells the prosecuting attorney that she does n't have to testify against her husband . she and matt have just returned from getting married at the justice of the peace in the court building . matt produces the marriage license . the prosecuting attorney admits that he ca n't compel a wife to testify against her husband , but he vows to expose their marriage as fraudulent and make them both pay . mac says there is no statute of limitations for murder so the only way to ensure that maxie never has to testify against matt is for them to stay married forever . maxie asks mac to be happy for her . she says she did n't have a choice . spinelli says she could have chosen to keep her end of the bargain and let matt 's lawyers argue the mitigating factors of the case .</s> | 10,610 |

adam : no . here . look what i just bought . kyle : we 've been trying to acquire these guys for a while . summer : yeah , and they kept resisting because they were thinking , `` hey , we sell cosmetics , too . so , why ca n't we be as big as jabot ? `` kyle : until i ran the numbers to show them how much capital that would take . summer : mm - hmm . and i put together a marketing package that laid out all of the advantages of their brand being a subsidiary of jabot instead of a competitor . kyle : so , now they 're ready to talk , and i think we can close the deal . so , what do you think ? jack : what do i think ? well , when i walked in here , i thought i 'd give you an inspirational speech about how important this deal is to jabot and how critical it is that you get all your ducks in line . but after hearing this , i 'm the one who 's inspired . i clearly picked the right team for this trip . go get 'em ! lola : it 's nice to see you , fen . fen : yeah , it 's good to see you , too . lola : enjoy . devon : thank you . i got to say , man , really is great to have you back healthy and alert . warms my heart . fen : yeah . yeah , i really appreciate that . it 's super generous , actually , considering i screwed up the tour that lp bankrolled . look -- i 'm , i 'm really sorry . i 'll figure out a way to make it up to you . devon : no , you already have by getting treatment . and i mean that . i really do . you do n't have to beat yourself up over your addiction . fen : thank you . devon : yeah . and when you 're back on the road , gon na make sure to get you everything that you need -- counseling , a sobriety coach , just whatever it takes to help you make music again . fen : yeah , the whole time i was in rehab , that 's literally all i dreamed about . devon : does n't have to be a dream anymore , right ?

additional sponsorship chelsea : you are just full of surprises , are n't you ? adam : what 's the surprise ? i told you that i was thinking about getting back into business . chelsea : yes , but i did n't know that you 'd be buying a tech company that specializes in video games . adam : well , it sounded like fun . chelsea : do you even know anything about video games ? adam : [ laughs ] just the ones i play with connor . chelsea : ah . adam : hey , this is a brilliant idea . we can -- we can put him on the payroll , and he can be our little game tester . do you approve of this ? look -- i 'm not going all - in on this . i 'm just dipping my toe back in the business world until something better comes along . chelsea : you know what ? why not video games ? adam : exactly . chelsea : except you did n't have to camp out here to make this big announcement . adam : yeah . yeah , i know . um , part of the other reason is because it 's connor 's first day at the new school . chelsea : oh . you wanted to be close by in case there was a problem . adam : mm - hmm . have you heard anything ? chelsea : uh , no . not yet , but that 's a good sign . it means he 's almost gotten through his first day , and we 've yet to hear from the principal . adam : oh , when are we not going to have to worry about that again ?

fen : yeah , no , i 'm ... i 'm sure . i mean , it 'd be easy to pick back up where i left off except , you know , where i left off was trying to kill myself with drugs . so , i just do n't think i 'm ready to put myself back in that scene . you know , maybe someday but not now . devon : sure . fen : i do n't know . does that make any sense ? devon : yeah , of course it does . fen : and i - i want you to know how grateful i am for you just even taking a chance on me . but , you know , at the end of the day my sobriety has to come first . devon : i completely understand , and , to be honest , i 'm proud of you . fen : thanks . devon : yeah . even though it means that , uh , that lp will temporarily be losing the services of a very talented artist . fen : [ laughs ] `` temporarily , `` huh ?

adam : odds are , i know a lot of things that -- chance : i 'm talking about our missing friend , unless you forgot what went down in vegas . adam : look -- i have n't forgotten . chance : you do n't seem bothered with the fact that she 's completely fallen off the grid . adam : everything is under control chance : why ? because you say it is ? adam : everything is under control . so , would you just take it down a notch ? chance : really , adam ? you want me to practice discretion ? i have run more undercover ops than you have suits in your closet . adam : point taken . chance : what is going on ? adam : look -- she might be missing , but she 's not lost . chance : [ sighs ] adam : she 'll resurface soon enough . she has a check to cash . chance : what check ? adam : the one that i take care of every month . inside out chance : why am i just now hearing about you paying her ? adam : i covered my tracks . okay ? checks can not get traced back to me . chance : that was n't my question . adam : i did n't tell you because you worry too much , chance , just like you 're doing right now . chance : you and i have a lot at stake here . adam : mm . i 'm very aware of that . chance : anything that you do , i need to know about it five minutes ago . adam : okay . all you need to know is everything is under control . chance : in my line of work , that usually means you 're already in trouble . adam : [ sighs ] do you see what i mean ? you 're literally getting bent out of shape about nothing . so , she got off the grid . she will get back on when she needs the money . chance : why did you decide to pay her , anyway ? out of the kindness of your heart ? to keep tabs on her ? adam : i - i do n't see the two as mutually exclusive . okay , bottom line is , we want to know where she is at all times , right ? chance : alright , now we do n't ! adam : it 's a temporary condition . chance : adam , you had better be right . theo : it 's nice to know you 're confident i can handle things while you 're gone . kyle : i 'm sure you 'll meet every expectation . theo : good to know . kyle : so , is there anything else ? theo : i hope you guys crush the meeting in san francisco . kyle : that 's the plan . and thanks for the support , theo . theo : yeah . kyle : i mean it . theo : hey , try and squeeze in some fun while you 're out there , too , okay ? huh ? summer : okay , okay . who are you , and what have you done with kyle ? kyle : well , i finally decided to take your advice , lola 's advice , everyone 's advice , and not go nuts every time theo tries to bait me . summer : wow ! that 's a really great strategy , boss . kyle : oh , well , thanks . summer : mm - hmm . he 's not going to stop , you know . kyle : i do n't expect him to , but i 'll kill him with kindness until it drives him crazy . summer : well , it sounds like another suggestion that i might have passed along to you . kyle : i 'm a slow learner . summer : mm - hmm . kyle : but eventually i get there . i 'm sorry it took so long . summer : ah . you know , i kind of like this new kyle . maybe we can keep him around for a while , huh ? chloe : so , do you remember your friend connor when we used to live here ? [ gasps ] there they are ! chelsea : hi , bella . bella : hi . chelsea : what do you say ? connor : hey , bella . chelsea : oh , i have an idea . why do n't you guys go choose some music from the jukebox ? hmm ? what do you think about that idea ? bella : okay . chelsea : they 're holding hands ! chloe : i can't . i ca n't ! okay , so , when do we start planning the wedding ? and do n't tell me you were n't thinking the same thing . chelsea : would n't that be something ? connor and bella . chloe : well , we could dream , right ? chelsea : mm - hmm . ooh , and we 're gon na have another playmate on the way . do we know if it 's a boy or girl ? chloe : we don't . no , i -- i kind of want to keep it that way , but i secretly want another girl . chelsea : really ? chloe : yeah , i think , you know , just for bella to have a little sister to play dress - up with . i always wanted a little sister . chelsea : yeah , i always wanted a sister , too . chloe : well , maybe our wishes will come true . hey , um ... does ... does connor know about his eyes ? chelsea : uh , no , we have n't told him yet about the cornea transplant , but we have this ritual . every time he seems anxious or has a bad dream , we ask him , `` what do you see with your magic eyes ? `` because with those eyes he can only see good things . chloe : yeah , they are magic . this whole moment to me is magic . to be so close to delia , knowing that connor is looking at bella through her sister 's eyes ? [ sighs ] i 'm not being dramatic , right ? it 's -- it 's pretty special . chelsea : yeah , it 's very special . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . phyllis : so , you are trotting out the enchanted necklace . this must be a very important trip . summer : well , it is my lucky jewelry . phyllis : well , it was n't lucky for me . i 'm still unemployed . but hey , when did you become superstitious ? summer : i 'm not , really . i do n't know . just makes me feel good when i wear it . phyllis : you 're nervous . summer : yeah , maybe a little , okay ? phyllis : well , you 've been on other business trips . what 's so special about this ? summer : can i trust you not to say anything ? phyllis : of course . summer : i mean it , mom . phyllis : of course ! i swear . summer : okay . well , we 're actually in negotiations to buy this cosmetic company in san francisco , and kyle has the chance to close this deal . so , it 's a really big opportunity for him . phyllis : oh , that 's great . summer : yeah . phyllis : but i hope that you 're not putting kyle 's success ahead of your own . summer : absolutely not , no . phyllis : or getting some ideas about , you know ... summer : about what ? phyllis : never mind . summer : okay , i 'm well aware that he is a married man . so , i 'm not stupid . phyllis : i did n't say you was stupid . but even the smartest people can be very foolish when it comes to love . i know this . summer : okay , well , i 'm not one of those people . phyllis : okay . just trying to protect you . that 's all . summer : okay . well , i appreciate it , mom . phyllis : okay , subject closed . summer : thank you . phyllis : on the other hand ... summer : oh , god , i knew it . phyllis : ... if you decided to go for kyle -- i 'm not suggesting you do -- but if you decided to go for him , you could get him back like that . [ chuckles ] devon : hey . lola ? lola : oh , hi . uh , sorry . devon : it 's okay . is everything alright ? lola : sure . everything 's fine . devon : does n't sound like everything 's fine . lola : kyle and i got into a fight . devon : and ? lola : and it was pretty bad . devon : how bad we talking ? lola : loud and ugly . devon : i 'm sorry . lola : yeah . me too . devon : you know , from my personal experience , it 's pretty normal for married couples to fight from time to time and get loud and ugly . lola : i know , but kyle and i have n't fought like this before , and it really scared me . devon : i understand . well , you 're gon na get past it . you want to know how ? go make up with him . kyle : you have some time to talk before i go on my trip ? lola : of course i have time to talk . why would you think that i would n't ? fen : truth is , i decided to move to nashville because some sober friends of mine rented an apartment out there , and they just asked if i wanted to tag along with them . lauren : and that was it ? fen : pretty much . michael : i 'm sure your mother is hoping that you would stay in genoa city for a while . you 've got family here , friends , all the support you could ask for . fen : i know . i know , and i 'm i 'm so grateful , mom and dad . i really am , but i just -- i needed a change , you know , a fresh start , and nashville has a great music scene . i 've already got a job set up at a recording studio . i mean , this is gon na be good for me . i can feel it . chloe : did you invite him ? chelsea : no . chloe : then what is he doing here ? chelsea : he probably wanted to see connor after his first day of school . chloe , this is not a setup . i promise . chloe : well , i believe you , but i would n't put it past him . chelsea : oh , hey , guys . chloe : adam . adam : chloe . hi , bud ! how was your first day of school ? connor : it was good . adam : good ! well , i just came by to join you for some hot chocolate . did n't realize there was gon na be a crowd . chloe : bella , this is connor 's dad . this is adam . adam : hi . it is so nice to meet you . that is a really , really pretty jacket . anyway , um , i can get the hot chocolate . where -- chelsea : we were actually all about to go get some -- adam : oh , no , i can get it . chloe : actually , i 'll join you . chelsea : you know , why do n't we all go ? adam : no , no . it 's fine . chloe and i can handle this . adam : okay , let 's hear it . just say whatever it is you need to say . chloe : chelsea may have fallen for your act , but i never will . adam : mm . hmph . well , then , i guess the hot chocolate is gon na be on me , then . chloe : this is n't funny . you are a heartless bastard who brings pain to everything you touch , and i can not believe that i have to stand by and watch it . adam : well , i have a suggestion for you . do n't watch it . chloe : oh , i should have left you to die in the street . adam : what was that ? chloe : nothing , nothing . adam : you did leave me to die in the street , chloe . matter of fact , you left me to die in a few other places , too . so , what did you mean by that ? chloe : you know what ? there really is no difference because you 're standing here now . adam : wait a minute . unless ... i should have known . i should have known . billy . billy . someone pushed me out of the way when he tried to run me down . was that you ? chloe : why would i lift a finger to save you ? adam : i do n't know . but you did , did n't you ? did n't you ? chloe : yes . yes . it was me who saved your sorry ass that night . and now you owe me . get ready for the insurance - themed experience jack : come on in . sit down . theo : great ! so , uh , what 's on the agenda ? any new work you want to throw at me ? jack : that is not what i want to talk to you about . theo : oh , okay . is it something about the job that i 'm doing , because if -- jack : i 'm perfectly happy with your performance . you bring drive and energy . your ideas are well - thought - out . no , i have no issues where that 's concerned . theo : then , why do i feel like i 've been called into the principal 's office ? jack : i am aware of a certain friction between you and kyle . theo : i 'm sorry about that . i wish we could go back in time to being best buds , but , i do n't know . there 's something about me that seems to rub kyle the wrong way . jack : and this is totally kyle 's issue . theo : no , no . we just play by a different set of rules sometimes . kyle has his way of doing things , and i have mine , and maybe my way is a little too unorthodox for him . jack : a clash of styles , then . theo : something like that . jack : i 'm reminded of your grandmother dina . she was always very proud to tell people they broke the mold when they made her . theo : from what she told me , she told me she was quite the force , alright . jack : she was , but she was n't perfect , and this set of rules she made for herself did n't always benefit her and everyone else . look -- all i 'm saying is , even if kyle has issues with you , you 're not making it any easier . i see the way you goad him to get a reaction out of him , all the sarcastic asides , all the lack of respect . theo : it goes both ways , jack . jack : i am well aware of that . i 've spoken to kyle about this . now i 'm speaking to you . you keep poking someone with a sharp stick , what reaction do you expect ? i do n't want to have this conversation again . are we clear on that ? theo : you wo n't , jack . i heard you . kyle : i 'm sorry if it came across like i was still mad at you . i 'm not . lola : i 'm not mad , either . kyle : then why is it so hard to get this tension to go away ? why is it suddenly so hard to just move on ? lola : i do n't know , but i just want to get through this . and i know that you want to get through it , too . it just seems like we 're so out of sync , and it 's driving me crazy . kyle : we just need time to sort it out . lola : and we will . we definitely will . kyle : but now i have to get on a plane . lola : i know . [ sighs ] kyle : i hate having to leave when things are so unsettled between us . lola : me too . but it 's work . i understand . when you get back , we 'll talk everything out and make it better , okay ? kyle : we have to make it better . call you when i get to san francisco ? lola : okay . i love you . summer : um , i am not , and i repeat , not looking to get back together with kyle . phyllis : ' kay . if you say so . summer : well , yeah , i do keep saying so , and you keep not believing me . phyllis : no , all i said is if you want kyle back , you can get him back like that . summer : yeah . that 's spoken like a true mom , but fine . i 'll play your game . how , mom ? phyllis : alright . let 's go back a few years . kyle was madly in love with you all the way up to the point that he met someone who is the polar opposite of you . summer : lola ? phyllis : lola , yes . it 's like blonde versus brunette , ferrari vs. food truck , and then , bam , he 's married within a year ? come on . please . summer : okay . well , did it ever occur to you that they fell in love ? phyllis : [ snorts ] in love ? i 'm sure kyle 's trying to convince himself that he 's in love . those feelings he had for you , those are n't going to go away . they couldn't . summer : well , mom , i do n't know . he chose her , okay ? so , i had to accept that . phyllis : who are you trying to kid ? who are you trying to kid ? summer : i 'm just stating the facts , okay ? phyllis : i 'll tell you some facts . you are 10 times the woman ... [ voice breaking ] that lola is . ten times , okay ? and kyle knows that . and you are still in love with him . i do n't care how many times you want to deny it . you are still in love with him . my fear as a mother is that you are going to wait around for kyle to wise up . and what if he does n't ? and you will be second - best . do n't you ever be second - best . do n't you dare be second - best . lauren : okay . well , seeing that you 're moving all the way to nashville , i hope you 'll at least let us help you get settled in . fen : yeah , i would n't mind that . michael : you think you could rustle up a little more enthusiasm there , fen ? fen : [ laughs ] i would love for you guys to come . i think you 'll actually feel a lot better once you see where i 'm going to be living . michael : who knows ? maybe i 'll put some country in my regular music rotation . fen : yeah , there you go . mom , you alright ? michael : i think she 's tearing up at the thought of me singing country music around the house . lauren : [ laughs ] stop it ! [ voice breaking ] i 'm just sad to say goodbye to my son that i 'm so very proud of . michael : that sounds like a country - music song right there . lauren : [ laughs ] fen : i love you guys . lauren : i love you . michael : love you , too . chloe : what ? adam : i 'm just -- i 'm still trying to wrap my head around you saving my life . chloe : oh , wait . i -- i did not save you . i was saving billy from making a horrible mistake , and you were just an afterthought . adam : okay . well , still , it 's just -- it 's really nice to know that you do n't want me dead anymore . chloe : the jury is still out on that because if you hurt chelsea again , i swear -- adam : no . i won't . chloe : oh ! okay . yeah . adam : look -- what you gave me that night was a gift . and i 'm gon na use that gift to make chelsea and connor feel safe and happy . and i know that you do n't believe that now . but it 's the truth . hey . i mean , look at those kids . i ca n't even imagine seeing them together , how that makes you feel . chloe : they will always be connected , and they might not know that now , but it will always be there . adam : yeah , well , i think we 're all connected , for better or worse , whether we want it or don't . we just are . chloe : please stop , adam . stop trying to pretend like you 're human . and you can carry your own damn hot chocolate yourself . [ sighs ] chelsea : well , no bruises , no scratches . any broken bones ? adam : no , not one . chelsea : so ? adam : chloe and i have reached a tentative understanding . chelsea : okay . i do n't know what that means exactly , but i 'll take it . um , i do have one more question for you , though . adam : okay . what 's that ? chelsea : back at the hotel , what were you and chance up to ? adam : chance and i , we were just talking . chelsea : it looked intense . adam : oh , i would n't -- i would n't say that . chelsea : is there anything you want to tell me ? adam : is there anything that i want to tell you ? um ... chelsea : let me -- let me rephrase that . um , is there anything you need to tell me ? adam : no . no . there is nothing that you need to know . i would tell you if there was . chelsea : okay . adam : is that all ? chelsea : yeah . you answered my question . adam : mm - hmm . chloe : i do n't know , bella . it looks like you both have the same amount of marshmallows . bella : that 's not true . he has one more . chloe : oh ! connor : i 'll give her one of mine if she wants . chloe : connor , thank you so much for sharing . you know , you guys are going to be friends for a long time , so there 's gon na be a lot of that . you 'd better get used to it . [ sighs ] lola : oh , i will take this for you . yeah . summer : thank you for looking out for me . phyllis : it 's my job as a mom . do n't be second choice , especially to kyle . summer : okay . i heard you . so , thank you . phyllis : look -- summer : you do n't need to worry , though . phyllis : well , it 's part of the job . you 'll find out one day . kyle : all set ? summer : yeah , i think i am ready . kyle : my bag 's in the car . let me get this . summer : okay . bye , mom . phyllis : goodbye . kyle : ready to go conquer the world ? | fen tells devon that he is putting his music career on hold to focus on his sobriety and later he tells michael and lauren he is moving to nashville to live with some friends . chance talks to adam about their mutual female friend from las vegas . adam is confident she will turn up because she has a check to cash . adam is unaware that chelsea has overheard their conversation and she later asks him if he has anything to tell her and he says no and then they kiss each other . adam and chloe reach an uneasy peace after chloe accidentally tells adam that she pushed him out of the way when billy almost ran over him . kyle and lola agree to talk things over and resolve their differences when he returns from his business trip . phyllis encourages summer to go after kyle if she wants him back in her life . chance accepts a dinner invitation from phyllis because he is curious about her . | <s>[INST] [ previously_on ] lola : what if i threw a fit every single time summer was fawning all over you ? kyle : so , you admit it . theo has a thing for you . lola : maybe he does , babe , the same way that summer has a thing for you . fen : i needed to be in rehab . i just kind of wanted to make sure i was ready to face the world without drugs because i vowed to myself that when i left , it was gon na be for the last time . chance : i 'm not here to make your life any harder . you helped me out of a jam in vegas , and i wo n't forget that . adam : what would you say if i told you i was thinking about resurrecting dark horse ?

adam : no . here . look what i just bought . kyle : we 've been trying to acquire these guys for a while . summer : yeah , and they kept resisting because they were thinking , `` hey , we sell cosmetics , too . so , why ca n't we be as big as jabot ? `` kyle : until i ran the numbers to show them how much capital that would take . summer : mm - hmm . and i put together a marketing package that laid out all of the advantages of their brand being a subsidiary of jabot instead of a competitor . kyle : so , now they 're ready to talk , and i think we can close the deal . so , what do you think ? jack : what do i think ? well , when i walked in here , i thought i 'd give you an inspirational speech about how important this deal is to jabot and how critical it is that you get all your ducks in line . but after hearing this , i 'm the one who 's inspired . i clearly picked the right team for this trip . go get 'em ! lola : it 's nice to see you , fen . fen : yeah , it 's good to see you , too . lola : enjoy . devon : thank you . i got to say , man , really is great to have you back healthy and alert . warms my heart . fen : yeah . yeah , i really appreciate that . it 's super generous , actually , considering i screwed up the tour that lp bankrolled . look -- i 'm , i 'm really sorry . i 'll figure out a way to make it up to you . devon : no , you already have by getting treatment . and i mean that . i really do . you do n't have to beat yourself up over your addiction . fen : thank you . devon : yeah . and when you 're back on the road , gon na make sure to get you everything that you need -- counseling , a sobriety coach , just whatever it takes to help you make music again . fen : yeah , the whole time i was in rehab , that 's literally all i dreamed about . devon : does n't have to be a dream anymore , right ?

additional sponsorship chelsea : you are just full of surprises , are n't you ? adam : what 's the surprise ? i told you that i was thinking about getting back into business . chelsea : yes , but i did n't know that you 'd be buying a tech company that specializes in video games . adam : well , it sounded like fun . chelsea : do you even know anything about video games ? adam : [ laughs ] just the ones i play with connor . chelsea : ah . adam : hey , this is a brilliant idea . we can -- we can put him on the payroll , and he can be our little game tester . do you approve of this ? look -- i 'm not going all - in on this . i 'm just dipping my toe back in the business world until something better comes along . chelsea : you know what ? why not video games ? adam : exactly . chelsea : except you did n't have to camp out here to make this big announcement . adam : yeah . yeah , i know . um , part of the other reason is because it 's connor 's first day at the new school . chelsea : oh . you wanted to be close by in case there was a problem . adam : mm - hmm . have you heard anything ? chelsea : uh , no . not yet , but that 's a good sign . it means he 's almost gotten through his first day , and we 've yet to hear from the principal . adam : oh , when are we not going to have to worry about that again ? chelsea : soon . i hope . adam : i just want him to be a happy , normal kid . chelsea : i know you do . so do i . adam : yeah . chelsea : mmm . oh , which reminds me . actually , um , i have to go get him soon . adam : ah ! will you let me know how it went ?

you can bring bella . the kids have n't seen each other in a while . it 'll be fun . chloe : that is so not fair . chelsea : what ? ! chloe : you proposing this play date to preempt me from reminding you that adam is the devil . chelsea : are we doing this , or what ?

chance : women have asked me out before . phyllis : oh , okay , stud . maybe you have a problem with the word `` date . `` it 's just a dinner , unless your mind is going other places . chance : it isn't . phyllis : it isn't . chance : on my honor . phyllis : okay , well , being the last honorable man , maybe you feel loyalty to abby , and that is stopping you from having a succulent , delicious meal with me . chance : what do you think abby would say ? phyllis : well , she encouraged it . i mean , she told me -- what were her words exactly ? -- that she said to you , `` satisfy your curiosity . `` chance : she said that ? phyllis : yeah . chance : to you ? phyllis : yes , i think so , unless i have it wrong . chance : no , that -- that about sums it up . phyllis : are you curious ? chance : i think that abby might be confusing curiosity with interest . phyllis : it 's all the same to me . why do n't you pick me up at my place at 7 : 00 tomorrow ? chance : make it 8 : 00 . phyllis : okay . see you then . adam : what was all that about ? chance : you do not want to know . we have a problem . adam : [ sighs ] oh , god , please tell me it is not about phyllis because i am in too good a mood right now . chance : it 's not about phyllis . adam : thank god . chance : adam , she 's missing . she 's completely fallen off the radar . copd makes it hard to breathe devon : um ... i got to say , fen . i did not expect this from you at all . are you sure this is what you want ? fen : yeah , no , i 'm ... i 'm sure . i mean , it 'd be easy to pick back up where i left off except , you know , where i left off was trying to kill myself with drugs . so , i just do n't think i 'm ready to put myself back in that scene . you know , maybe someday but not now . devon : sure . fen : i do n't know . does that make any sense ? devon : yeah , of course it does . fen : and i - i want you to know how grateful i am for you just even taking a chance on me . but , you know , at the end of the day my sobriety has to come first . devon : i completely understand , and , to be honest , i 'm proud of you . fen : thanks . devon : yeah . even though it means that , uh , that lp will temporarily be losing the services of a very talented artist . fen : [ laughs ] `` temporarily , `` huh ?

because you say it is ? adam : everything is under control . so , would you just take it down a notch ? chance : really , adam ? you want me to practice discretion ? i have run more undercover ops than you have suits in your closet . adam : point taken . chance : what is going on ? adam : look -- she might be missing , but she 's not lost . chance : [ sighs ] adam : she 'll resurface soon enough . she has a check to cash . chance : what check ? adam : the one that i take care of every month . inside out chance : why am i just now hearing about you paying her ? adam : i covered my tracks . okay ? checks can not get traced back to me . chance : that was n't my question . adam : i did n't tell you because you worry too much , chance , just like you 're doing right now . chance : you and i have a lot at stake here . adam : mm . i 'm very aware of that . chance : anything that you do , i need to know about it five minutes ago . adam : okay . all you need to know is everything is under control . chance : in my line of work , that usually means you 're already in trouble . adam : [ sighs ] do you see what i mean ? you 're literally getting bent out of shape about nothing . so , she got off the grid . she will get back on when she needs the money . chance : why did you decide to pay her , anyway ? out of the kindness of your heart ? to keep tabs on her ? adam : i - i do n't see the two as mutually exclusive . okay , bottom line is , we want to know where she is at all times , right ? chance : alright , now we do n't ! adam : it 's a temporary condition . chance : adam , you had better be right . theo : it 's nice to know you 're confident i can handle things while you 're gone . kyle : i 'm sure you 'll meet every expectation . theo : good to know . kyle : so , is there anything else ? theo : i hope you guys crush the meeting in san francisco . kyle : that 's the plan . and thanks for the support , theo . theo : yeah . kyle : i mean it . theo : hey , try and squeeze in some fun while you 're out there , too , okay ?

[ sighs ] i 'm not being dramatic , right ? it 's -- it 's pretty special . chelsea : yeah , it 's very special . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . phyllis : so , you are trotting out the enchanted necklace . this must be a very important trip . summer : well , it is my lucky jewelry . phyllis : well , it was n't lucky for me . i 'm still unemployed . but hey , when did you become superstitious ? summer : i 'm not , really . i do n't know . just makes me feel good when i wear it . phyllis : you 're nervous . summer : yeah , maybe a little , okay ? phyllis : well , you 've been on other business trips . what 's so special about this ? summer : can i trust you not to say anything ? phyllis : of course . summer : i mean it , mom . phyllis : of course ! i swear . summer : okay . well , we 're actually in negotiations to buy this cosmetic company in san francisco , and kyle has the chance to close this deal . so , it 's a really big opportunity for him . phyllis : oh , that 's great . summer : yeah . phyllis : but i hope that you 're not putting kyle 's success ahead of your own . summer : absolutely not , no . phyllis : or getting some ideas about , you know ... summer : about what ? phyllis : never mind . summer : okay , i 'm well aware that he is a married man . so , i 'm not stupid . phyllis : i did n't say you was stupid . but even the smartest people can be very foolish when it comes to love . i know this . summer : okay , well , i 'm not one of those people . phyllis : okay . just trying to protect you . that 's all . summer : okay . well , i appreciate it , mom . phyllis : okay , subject closed . summer : thank you . phyllis : on the other hand ... summer : oh , god , i knew it . phyllis : ... if you decided to go for kyle -- i 'm not suggesting you do -- but if you decided to go for him , you could get him back like that .

lola : and it was pretty bad . devon : how bad we talking ? lola : loud and ugly . devon : i 'm sorry . lola : yeah . me too . devon : you know , from my personal experience , it 's pretty normal for married couples to fight from time to time and get loud and ugly . lola : i know , but kyle and i have n't fought like this before , and it really scared me . devon : i understand . well , you 're gon na get past it . you want to know how ? go make up with him . kyle : you have some time to talk before i go on my trip ? lola : of course i have time to talk . why would you think that i would n't ? fen : truth is , i decided to move to nashville because some sober friends of mine rented an apartment out there , and they just asked if i wanted to tag along with them . lauren : and that was it ? fen : pretty much . michael : i 'm sure your mother is hoping that you would stay in genoa city for a while . you 've got family here , friends , all the support you could ask for . fen : i know . i know , and i 'm i 'm so grateful , mom and dad . i really am , but i just -- i needed a change , you know , a fresh start , and nashville has a great music scene . i 've already got a job set up at a recording studio . i mean , this is gon na be good for me . i can feel it . chloe : did you invite him ? chelsea : no . chloe : then what is he doing here ? chelsea : he probably wanted to see connor after his first day of school . chloe , this is not a setup . i promise . chloe : well , i believe you , but i would n't put it past him . chelsea : oh , hey , guys . chloe : adam . adam : chloe . hi , bud ! how was your first day of school ? connor : it was good . adam : good ! well , i just came by to join you for some hot chocolate . did n't realize there was gon na be a crowd . chloe : bella , this is connor 's dad . this is adam . adam : hi . it is so nice to meet you . that is a really , really pretty jacket . anyway , um , i can get the hot chocolate . where -- chelsea : we were actually all about to go get some -- adam : oh , no , i can get it . chloe : actually , i 'll join you . chelsea : you know , why do n't we all go ? adam : no , no . it 's fine . chloe and i can handle this . adam : okay , let 's hear it . just say whatever it is you need to say . chloe : chelsea may have fallen for your act , but i never will . adam : mm . hmph . well , then , i guess the hot chocolate is gon na be on me , then . chloe : this is n't funny . you are a heartless bastard who brings pain to everything you touch , and i can not believe that i have to stand by and watch it . adam : well , i have a suggestion for you . do n't watch it . chloe : oh , i should have left you to die in the street . adam : what was that ? chloe : nothing , nothing . adam : you did leave me to die in the street , chloe . matter of fact , you left me to die in a few other places , too . so , what did you mean by that ? chloe : you know what ? there really is no difference because you 're standing here now . adam : wait a minute . unless ... i should have known . i should have known . billy . billy . someone pushed me out of the way when he tried to run me down . was that you ? chloe : why would i lift a finger to save you ? adam : i do n't know . but you did , did n't you ? did n't you ? chloe : yes . yes . it was me who saved your sorry ass that night . and now you owe me . get ready for the insurance - themed experience jack : come on in . sit down . theo : great ! so , uh , what 's on the agenda ? any new work you want to throw at me ? jack : that is not what i want to talk to you about . theo : oh , okay . is it something about the job that i 'm doing , because if -- jack : i 'm perfectly happy with your performance . you bring drive and energy . your ideas are well - thought - out . no , i have no issues where that 's concerned . theo : then , why do i feel like i 've been called into the principal 's office ? jack : i am aware of a certain friction between you and kyle . theo : i 'm sorry about that . i wish we could go back in time to being best buds , but , i do n't know . there 's something about me that seems to rub kyle the wrong way . jack : and this is totally kyle 's issue . theo : no , no . we just play by a different set of rules sometimes . kyle has his way of doing things , and i have mine , and maybe my way is a little too unorthodox for him . jack : a clash of styles , then . theo : something like that . jack : i 'm reminded of your grandmother dina . she was always very proud to tell people they broke the mold when they made her . theo : from what she told me , she told me she was quite the force , alright . jack : she was , but she was n't perfect , and this set of rules she made for herself did n't always benefit her and everyone else . look -- all i 'm saying is , even if kyle has issues with you , you 're not making it any easier . i see the way you goad him to get a reaction out of him , all the sarcastic asides , all the lack of respect . theo : it goes both ways , jack . jack : i am well aware of that . i 've spoken to kyle about this . now i 'm speaking to you . you keep poking someone with a sharp stick , what reaction do you expect ? i do n't want to have this conversation again . are we clear on that ? theo : you wo n't , jack . i heard you . kyle : i 'm sorry if it came across like i was still mad at you . i 'm not . lola : i 'm not mad , either . kyle : then why is it so hard to get this tension to go away ? why is it suddenly so hard to just move on ? lola : i do n't know , but i just want to get through this . and i know that you want to get through it , too . it just seems like we 're so out of sync , and it 's driving me crazy . kyle : we just need time to sort it out . lola : and we will . we definitely will . kyle : but now i have to get on a plane . lola : i know . [ sighs ] kyle : i hate having to leave when things are so unsettled between us . lola : me too . but it 's work . i understand . when you get back , we 'll talk everything out and make it better , okay ? kyle : we have to make it better . call you when i get to san francisco ? lola : okay . i love you . summer : um , i am not , and i repeat , not looking to get back together with kyle . phyllis : ' kay . if you say so . summer : well , yeah , i do keep saying so , and you keep not believing me . phyllis : no , all i said is if you want kyle back , you can get him back like that . summer : yeah . that 's spoken like a true mom , but fine . i 'll play your game . how , mom ? phyllis : alright . let 's go back a few years . kyle was madly in love with you all the way up to the point that he met someone who is the polar opposite of you . summer : lola ? phyllis : lola , yes . it 's like blonde versus brunette , ferrari vs. food truck , and then , bam , he 's married within a year ? come on . please . summer : okay . well , did it ever occur to you that they fell in love ? phyllis : [ snorts ] in love ? i 'm sure kyle 's trying to convince himself that he 's in love . those feelings he had for you , those are n't going to go away . they couldn't . summer : well , mom , i do n't know . he chose her , okay ? so , i had to accept that . phyllis : who are you trying to kid ? who are you trying to kid ? summer : i 'm just stating the facts , okay ? phyllis : i 'll tell you some facts . you are 10 times the woman ... [ voice breaking ] that lola is . ten times , okay ? and kyle knows that . and you are still in love with him . i do n't care how many times you want to deny it . you are still in love with him . my fear as a mother is that you are going to wait around for kyle to wise up . and what if he does n't ? and you will be second - best . do n't you ever be second - best . do n't you dare be second - best . lauren : okay . well , seeing that you 're moving all the way to nashville , i hope you 'll at least let us help you get settled in . fen : yeah , i would n't mind that . michael : you think you could rustle up a little more enthusiasm there , fen ? fen : [ laughs ] i would love for you guys to come . i think you 'll actually feel a lot better once you see where i 'm going to be living . michael : who knows ? maybe i 'll put some country in my regular music rotation . fen : yeah , there you go . mom , you alright ? michael : i think she 's tearing up at the thought of me singing country music around the house . lauren : [ laughs ] stop it ! [ voice breaking ] i 'm just sad to say goodbye to my son that i 'm so very proud of . michael : that sounds like a country - music song right there . lauren : [ laughs ] fen : i love you guys . lauren : i love you . michael : love you , too . chloe : what ? adam : i 'm just -- i 'm still trying to wrap my head around you saving my life . chloe : oh , wait . i -- i did not save you . i was saving billy from making a horrible mistake , and you were just an afterthought . adam : okay . well , still , it 's just -- it 's really nice to know that you do n't want me dead anymore . chloe : the jury is still out on that because if you hurt chelsea again , i swear -- adam : no . i won't . chloe : oh ! okay . yeah . adam : look -- what you gave me that night was a gift . and i 'm gon na use that gift to make chelsea and connor feel safe and happy . and i know that you do n't believe that now . but it 's the truth . hey . i mean , look at those kids . i ca n't even imagine seeing them together , how that makes you feel . chloe : they will always be connected , and they might not know that now , but it will always be there . adam : yeah , well , i think we 're all connected , for better or worse , whether we want it or don't . we just are . chloe : please stop , adam . stop trying to pretend like you 're human . and you can carry your own damn hot chocolate yourself . [ sighs ] chelsea : well , no bruises , no scratches . any broken bones ? adam : no , not one . chelsea : so ? adam : chloe and i have reached a tentative understanding . chelsea : okay . i do n't know what that means exactly , but i 'll take it . um , i do have one more question for you , though . adam : okay . what 's that ? chelsea : back at the hotel , what were you and chance up to ? adam : chance and i , we were just talking . chelsea : it looked intense . adam : oh , i would n't -- i would n't say that . chelsea : is there anything you want to tell me ? adam : is there anything that i want to tell you ? um ... chelsea : let me -- let me rephrase that . um , is there anything you need to tell me ? adam : no . no . there is nothing that you need to know . i would tell you if there was . chelsea : okay . adam : is that all ? chelsea : yeah . you answered my question . adam : mm - hmm . chloe : i do n't know , bella . it looks like you both have the same amount of marshmallows . bella : that 's not true . he has one more . chloe : oh ! connor : i 'll give her one of mine if she wants . chloe : connor , thank you so much for sharing . you know , you guys are going to be friends for a long time , so there 's gon na be a lot of that . you 'd better get used to it .

reva : should you be here ? jeffrey : probably not . reva : then maybe you should go . jeffrey : is she all right ? reva : as well as can be expected . jeffrey : oh , so she 's here then . she 's staying ... reva : she 's staying until all of this is over . jeffrey : you know , reva , i wish i could snap my fingers and make this murder case go away . reva : you 're walking a very thin line , jeffrey . jeffrey : i know what i 'm doing . reva : you can still walk away . jeffrey : no , i can't . reva : then we should talk . ( knock at the door ) marah : who is it ? marina : me . marah : hey . marina : hey . marah : where 's shayne ? marina : i 'll catch up with him later . marah : you do n't have to do this . marina : do what ? what am i doing ? marah : coming in here to cheer me up . marina : nah . i came here to sulk with you . you got another pair of slippers ? look , marah , i saw the look on your face when you saw me and shayne together . marah : i 'm just happy for you guys . i 'm glad that you two have each other . marina : yeah , i 'm glad , too . because i could n't get through this alone . which brings me to you . marah : what about me ? marina : what happened at the fairgrounds is going to stay with us . you especially . you were inside . you ... marah : killed someone . marina : you should n't be alone right now . marah : so what are you going to do ? stay with me till this is over ? marina : why not ? marah : i ca n't ask you to do that . marina : well , then ask somebody else . is there anyone else ? marah : no . marina : who , marah ? marah : you know what ? it does n't matter . nobody can help me anyway . i just keep replaying that night over and over again . i shot carrie . how 's that for irony ? could n't even remember what happened and now i ca n't forget . marina : you have to stop beating yourself up . it was self defense . you did what you had to do . marah : no . i did exactly what carrie wanted me to do . josh : hey . billy : yeah . thanks . josh : did you talk to him ? billy : yeah . josh : you told him ? billy : he knows everything . josh : is he coming ? billy : well , not right away . he 's going to take a drive . i guess let things sink , but he 'll be here pretty soon . buzz : what are you guys doing out here ? come on in , i 'll buy lunch . josh : no , thank you . we 're waiting for somebody . buzz : i went to the station . i made a statement . i changed my statement . billy : we went in there this morning . buzz : i ca n't wait for this to be over with . i am so sick of answering questions , you know . come on in if you get cold . oh , god . harley : where you at the station ? what happened ? buzz : i gave the police my statement . harley : you mean you changed your statement . big difference . buzz : i do n't want to talk about this . i do n't want to talk about this . harley : well , dad , there 's a lot of stuff that we have to talk about . buzz : wait a second . how do you know ? harley : what do you think ? why did n't you tell me ? buzz : well , it happened a long time ago . harley : that 's not an answer . buzz : i do n't want to go into this . harley : well , then wh ? buzz : you 're asking me something about that happened 25 years ago . will you ask me something that happened now ? i can only deal with one thing at once , okay . harley : okay , okay . fine , fine , fine . let 's talk about what happened just now . buzz : okay . all you have to know is that everything we did , me , billy , alan , josh , we did to protect someone . we made our statements ... our first statements to protect marah . a lot of good it did . we could be prosecuted for obstructing justice and she 's as worse off . harley : well , i 'm thinking about marah , too . i still have questions about what happened that night at the fairgrounds . buzz : oh , good god . harley : dad , please . buzz : do you remember the chat we had a couple of days ago where you said you would n't push ? harley : yeah , but that 's before i learned that you falsified a statement . before i learned about mary caruthers . buzz : i do n't want to talk ... i do n't want to talk about this . harley : yeah , well , not talking about things though has worked out real well for you has n't it , dad ? buzz : i want this to be over with , okay ? drop it . gus : hey , babe . harley : hey , you . gus : what 's wrong ? harley : my dad . you ? gus : oh , your dad . my dad . harley : so you still have n't heard from alan ? gus : no , no , and i 'm suppose to hear from him today , but he conveniently disappears . harley : yeah , my father conveniently disappeared , too . into the kitchen ! gus : hmm . well , it seems that both of our dads are avoiding us . harley : yeah , looks like it . i 'm not surprised . are you ? gus : no . and i 'll tell you what . i do n't think we should take it . harley : i do n't think we should take it either . gus : i did it again . i put the money on my father , the big shot . and where did it get me ? it got me no where . i 'm an idiot . harley : it got you here with me . gus : i 'm nowhere . i 'm absolutely nowhere with my own father . i went all the way out on a limb to cut a deal for this guy . harley : i know . gus : no , all he had to do was cooperate with the feds , just let the spaulding investigation happen . but you do think he could step up to the plate ? no . harley : of course he could n't do it , hon . gus : yeah , well , why is that ? why do you think that is ? harley : because alan is alan . gus : what is that all about ? harley : and that 's just the way that he does things . but i am sorry for you . and i 'm sorry for him , because it 's a good deal . i thought he 'd take it . gus : i gave him till today . i said , you know , wrestle with your conscious . but you know , it 's funny , because the jokes on me . because the man 's got no conscience . he cares more about his own company than his own son . that does n't make sense to me . harley : see what 's happening here is that you 're new to is that you 're new to the whole being - disappointed - by - your- father thing . it 's a god thing i 'm here to show you the ropes . gus : why ? what did your father do ? harley : went down to the police station , changed his statement . gus : you 're kidding me . so he went down to say that he falsified the first statement ? harley : yep . gus : so he went down to correct himself ? harley : yeah . gus : so . but that 's a god thing , right ? that 's good . harley : see , but there 's a small problem here . the problem is that we still have not talked about the whole thing that happened at the fairgrounds . we still have n't talked about maryanne caruthers . gus : give him time . harley : i 'm sick of giving him time . you know what i mean ? i am sick of it always being about him . what if just this one time he thought about the stress that he 's causing us ? what if this one time he , you know , he came through for us ? gus : i understand , baby . but at least he did n't run . harley : no , but he may as well have . because you know what ? he 's here physically , but he is shut down . i mean he says to me , he just wants the whole thing to go way . but i have to tell you , i do n't think it 's that simple . gus : this caruther 's woman is dead , right ? how much ... how much trouble can she cause from the grave ? none , right ? none . harley : no . do n't be so sure . billy : here he comes . bill : i want you to know that i 'm still not entirely okay with everything that happened . josh : well , neither are we . bill : i mean , you guys , you 're my heroes . i 've grown up watching everything that you two went through . watching you recover from things that a lesser man could n't . and all a while you were carrying around this secret . billy : no , no ... bill : dad , please , just let me finish . you were carrying around this secret . and i know you ... i know you did n't do it just to protect yourselves . i know you did it protect the ones that you love . i 'm not saying you did the right thing , okay ? but i understand why you did it . and a step up , like you are now with so much more at stake . so much more to lose . it just ... it says a lot . says a lot . and i just want you to know that i ... you know whatever happens , i 'm not looking for any new heroes , that 's all . billy : thank you . bill : yeah . so anyway , how 's marah doing ? josh : holding up . bill : good . well , if there 's anything i can do , anything at all you just let me know . josh : that 's actually ... that 's why we asked you to meet us , bill . billy : yeah . son , i always knew this day was going to come and i guess we hoped it would be under circumstances , but ... bill : whoa , whoa , what are you talking about ? billy : well , josh and i got our hands full right now . josh : yeah and i ... obviously i want to spend more time with reva and marah and shayne . bill : yeah . look if this is about lewis construction , you know , you need me to pick up the slack for a while longer , it 's not ... billy : no , no ... bill : ... not a problem . billy : it 's not just picking up the slack . we kind of want you to run the company . josh : we want you to run lewis construction , bill , on a permanent basis . jeffrey : so why did you let me in ? reva : to thank you . i know that sounds strange , but ever since marah confessed , you have gone out of your way to protect her . and josh and i are very grateful . but i also know you have a job to do . jeffrey : well , yeah , i might not have one when this is over . reva : so that 's why you can be here because you do n't care ? does n't matter ? jeffrey : watching marah relive that night ... reva : a lot of men would take advantage of her ... jeffrey : no . reva : use her words against her . jeffrey : no , no , no . anyone that knows marah like i know her , anyone who cares about her like i ... reva : jeffrey . jeffrey : what ? reva : that fine line that you were walking , you just crossed it . marah : some strange old lady who travels through tunnels ends up in our living room , and do we call the cops ? no . marina : marah ... marah : she passes out these magic rings to us , and do we question her ? no . no . we ... magic rings . what are we like five years old ? marina : marah ... marah : she asked us to drill our parents , and do we refuse ? do we question her ? no . we do whatever she wants . marina : marah , stop . we 'll go crazy . carrie made us believe that we were helping our families . she convinced us that she could make our wishes come true . yeah , it may have sound stupid now , but it did n't then . not when i wanted shayne to walk again . not when michelle wanted to redeem danny 's name . marah : you know what ? this is exactly what she wanted . she wanted one of us to kill her that night . what better way to get back at the men that you 've hated for all of these years ? and i did it . i killed her . marina : no . you stopped her from killing your dad , and my grandfather and everyone else who was there that night . if i had been standing there , i hope that i would have had the courage to do the same thing . marah : courage does n't make you fire a gun , marina . fear does . and now a woman is dead because of it . marina : a mad woman is dead . and if the d . a . understood that ... marah : stop . just leave him out of this , okay . marina : what ? marah : jeffrey hates this as much as i do , all right . i do n't know what i would have done without him . he helped me . okay , he could have been fired , but he did n't care . and now because of me , we 'll never get a chance ... marah : jeffrey o'neill was your wish . josh : bill , you 've got what it takes to run lewis construction . bill : look , i do n't want it , okay , not like this . and look , it means everything to me that you think i can run the business . and i do n't want to be ungrateful here , but i do n't want to cash in on other people 's misfortune . josh : we 're not other people . we 're family . bill : which makes it even worse . billy : no , no , we do n't see it like that . family means that come along and you pick up the flag when somebody else in the family ca n't carry it . and josh and i definitely can not carry the flag . so you 're going to come along and pick it up or what ? you really do n't owe us anything , but it would mean the absolute world to us if you did . bill : well , i 'm going to make you proud . ( laughter ) billy : you already have . bill : thanks , uncle josh . josh : you have earned this , okay . now the lawyers are drawing up the paperwork as we speak . bill : oh , is that right ? josh : and there will be an announcement made later on today . so ... bill : so you knew i was going to say yes , is that right ? josh : we had a pretty good idea . bill : all right . josh : and do n't let the power go to your head . and listen to me now . you watch your back . you 're in charge now , so people are going to be coming out of the woodwork to get a piece of you , okay ? bill : look if you want more time to think about it for a second , i completely understand . billy : wait a second . do you think it 's okay ? bill : okay . all right . billy : it 's a done deal , right ? bill : you got it . billy : i think our work here is done , brother . bill : oh , wait minute now . you ca n't just leave . let me at least give you some lunch or something . seal the deal . billy : lunch ? bill : yeah . billy : he actually thinks he has time for lunch . does he has time for lunch ? josh : no , he does n't have time for lunch . you 're in charge of a big company @ 7éw . so go to work , mr . lewis . billy : you heard the man . jeffrey : i know what you 're thinking . reva : no , you do n't know what i 'm thinking . but i do know what i saw the way you looked at marah the night of the valentine 's dance . jeffrey : reva , i 've been trying to keep her away . i tried to push her away . i really did . reva : but what ? you 're tough as nails district attorney was no match for my young daughter ? what are you doing , jeffrey ? jeffrey : i know . i 'm going to have to stay away from her . i 'm also going to have to recluse from this case . but not now . not until i know that she 's ready for what 's coming up for her . i 'm going to stand by her for as long as i can . reva : for her sake or for your own ? jeffrey : for both of us . reva : she 's ... she 's in the pool house . go , please before i change my mind . marah : you and jeffrey o'neill . i mean i knew you two knew each other , but ... i lived with you . how did i not know this ? marah : we had a lot of other things that we were dealing with . marina : yeah , but ... are you two ... marah : are we what ? marina : like in love or anything ? marah : marina . marina : please . it is such a joy to talk about something other than you know who . just tell me . marah : it was n't like that . we had an agreement . marina : what kind of an agreement ? marah : actually , it was more of a contract . marina : a contract . what did you get yourself into , marah ? marah : there 's no strings attached . you know , whatever happened happened . and we had no obligation to each other . marina : no obligation . sounds like a cd of the month club . marah : you do n't understand . it was n't easy to do , but it was still good . and now jeffrey has to go back to his job . and i have to face up to what i 've done . maybe ... maybe it could have been different . maybe he could have cared the way i care for him . i do n't know , you know . it does n't matter anymore . marina : if you care about him , it matters . ( knock at the door ) god , is that one of those stupid reporters ? marina : i got it . jeffrey : is marah here ? marina : yeah , sure . it 's him . lose the slippers . you ready ? marah : yeah . jeffrey : hi . marah : hi . i thought you could n't see me . jeffrey : you okay ? marah : yeah , i 'm fine . i 've got my friends and my family . you do n't need to worry about me . i 'm fine . jeffrey : well , you know , did it ever occur to you that i might not be . marah : you should go . jeffrey : yeah , i know ... i know i should go . but i ca n't , marah . i won't . i need you . we need each other . marah : why would you want to be with somebody like me ? jeffrey : how could you ask me that ? marah : because , jeffrey , i killed somebody . jeffrey : shh . it 's okay . marah : no , no , it 's not okay . gosh , when you 're at trial and people confessed that they 've killed somebody , do you just tell them that it 's okay ? jeffrey : that 's not you . you 're not one of those people . marah : yes , i am . i became one of those people as soon as i pulled the trigger . jeffrey : no . listen , you know it 's true . when you pull the trigger , when you take a life you can never go back . marah : you know ? jeffrey : i know that we all make mistakes , marah . but protecting someone that you love is not a mistake . marah : is that what you think that i did ? is that what you 're doing ? jeffrey : do n't put up a wall like i did , okay , to trey to keep out the hurt . that 's what carrie wants you to do . marah : every time i think about her ... jeffrey : do n't think about it . do n't even think about what would have happened if you had n't done what you did . marah : carrie would still be alive . jeffrey : someone else might not be . someone that you love might not be . you might not be . marah : jeffrey , i know you 're not supposed to be here , but can you stay anyway , please . jeffrey : oh , god , i 'll stay as long as you want me to . buzz : ( moans ) bill : hey , buzz . i did n't even hear the door open . buzz : i came out the back door . i needed some air . bill : yeah , me , too . buzz : i got a kid in there that has questions and i do n't have the answers . bill : i bet she does . i know what happened . buzz : ah . that 's why you have the weight of the world on your shoulders ... thinking about your old man . bill : `` the weight of the world , `` that 's about right . you know , i 've been filling in over at lewis construction while everything was going on . but now my uncle josh and my dad want me to run the company permanently.ñ buzz : wow . well , congratulations . is this the realization of a life long dream . bill : heck no . i wanted to be a fireman . buzz : well , i heard that company be putting out some fires . bill : you know , the funny thing is i just never thought i would end up in my hometown running the family business . i always thought i was going to get out there and do something different with my life . buzz : well , as i recall , you did get out there for awhile . ( laughs ) that is the thing about family , is n't it ? it just pulls you back whether you want it or not . i guess you just have to take it as a challenge . you got to make your own world . you got to get what you want right there in the middle of the people that know you best . people who , you know , for better for worse , think they know what 's best for you , you know what i mean ? keep me posted . bill : yeah , i will . buzz : i 've got to back in there and put out a fire . w3 harley : dad , we need to talk . buzz : i want to talk to him . would you please remind your fiancée , a . k.a . , my daughter that she is no longer on the police payroll and that her old man has been interrogated enough for one day . gus : okay . what he said . harley : would you please tell my father that his daughter has no desire to interrogate him . i just want to prevent some trouble . buzz : aye . gus : what she said . buzz : what kind of trouble ? gus : she 's worried about this caruther 's chick coming back and doing something from the grave . buzz : she 's dead . gus : exactly . buzz : she 's shot . she fell in the river . harley : dad . she nursed that grudge for years . she planned everything , including her own death . i 'm just saying i would n't put it past her to have left behind some nightmares to live on after her . you know what they say about revenge . buzz : it 's best served cold ? harley : yes . so if carrie is cold and dead in some watery grave , now will be the time to watch our backs . marina : what do you mean if ? carrie 's dead . you told me she was dead . ( knock at the door ) reva : oh , jeffrey , i swear . joshua . josh : were you expecting somebody ? reva : jeffrey o'neill again . josh : again , huh ? reva : yes , he was here to see marah . josh : ah . reva : i know . i was n't exactly thrilled about it either . but you know what ? i think that we could trust him with our daughter . besides , she 's a grown woman now . josh : ( laughs ) reva : it 's true . josh : i know . i know . and this may sound surprising . but i actually think he 's a pretty good guy . stand up guy , you know . reva : i pretty much said the same thing to him . josh : she saved my life . reva : i know . josh : i just ca n't believe this is happening to her now . i just ... i hate everything about it . reva : i 'm worried that it 's all just the beginning . josh : and she 's not going to go to jail , reva . i promise you that . i 'm going to do everything i can to make sure she has the best possible representation in court , i 'll talk to the judge , the jury , the press , whoever i have to talk to make sure people understand that this was self defense . and that 's actually going to be a pretty full - time job for me . so i thought i 'd better tell you that earlier billy and i gave the company over to bill . reva : are you sure ? that company has been your life 's work . josh : well , bill is definitely ready . and the company 's not my life 's work . you are my life work , our children , our kids . that 's my life 's work . reva : we 're a little more high maintenance than the company . josh : well , that 's true , but i like the challenge . reva : you know what the real challenge is going to be ? you being a part of this family and still living at the beacon . josh : yeah . i 'm actually glad you brought that up , because i was wondering if -- ( clears his throat ) -- maybe i could leave this here ? reva : in the study ? josh : well , wherever you want me to leave it , i guess will be fine . but i ... reva : is that your toothbrush ? josh : yes . reva : i think i can make up the guest room for it . fresh sheets , towels ... josh : no . i 'm sorry . that wo n't work . reva : oh . i understand . baby steps . josh : no , no , it 's just that i intensely dislike the wallpaper in the guestroom . i was thinking maybe the master bedroom , you know , our room . what do you think about that ? reva : are you sure ? josh : yeah , i 'm sure . eh so i guess this means i can put my toothbrush upstairs . reva : wait , wait , wait . you know , i love that you want to be a part of this , be here . and i do n't want to push , but ... josh : but ? reva : i do n't want to get my hopes up that ... that this is something more than just temporary . so if ... if you 're not planning on moving all the way in , then maybe you should go back to the beacon . p1o josh : you want to give me a hand with this stuff ? i figured i 'd leave it outside until i got the okay on the toothbrush . reva : oh . josh : what ? reva : you 're home . josh : yes . marina : carrie 's dead . she has to be dead . buzz : she 's dead . she 's dead . she 's dead . look , she 's not going to hurt us or you ever again . marina : but aunt harley just said ... buzz : no , no , no . she 's just saying that maybe she left a little surprise or something , you know , for everybody after . she 's gone . harley : yeah , right . gus : but don't ... harley : you mean like the cave - in ? gus : the what ? harley : what cave - in ? there was this one time when i was down in the tunnels on my way to carrie 's room and the walls collapsed on me . buzz : when did this happen ? harley : what ? gus : what tunnels ? harley : i do n't know . it was a while ago . marah and michelle got me out . we do n't know that carrie planned it , but it was right after the razor blade . buzz : the razor blade ? harley : what razor blade ? marina : you know , the razor blade that was stuck in marah 's doll . so when she reached out to get it ... buzz : you know about this ? marina : we do n't know that carrie was involved , but it was all right after the gas leak in michelle 's fireplace . and we never ever found out how that happened . so ... gus : what gas leak ? harley : you still think there 's nothing to worry about , dad ? buzz : there is nothing to worry about . gus : well , there 's nothing to worry about because there 's no real proof . so let 's just calm down . harley : the proof is in the setups . the proof is in the traps . look at it . buzz : hey , could you get me a cream soda ? marina : no , i want to hear this . what do you think carrie has planned ? harley : i do n't know . maybe nothing , okay . but when you see everything else , i ... i would n't put it past her to have left behind some surprises . marina : so what are we going to do about it ? harley : we 're not doing anything about it . marina , you 're out of this . marina : so what are you going to do about it ? harley : i 'm going to protect my family . t ( jeffrey : take a nap . okay , i 'll go . marah : no . can you stay ? at least until i fall asleep ? jeffrey : sure . marah : thank you . jeffrey : what ? marah : i was just thinking . i used to have a stuffed bear that i slept with when i was little . jeffrey : really ? marah : mm - hmm . i called him , mr . bear . jeffrey : that 's very original . marah : none of the girls my age could have handled a bear like him . jeffrey : and why is that ? marah : because he looked ferocious . but i knew better . josh : thank you so much for your help . i appreciate that . reva : so i guess it 's too late for me to change my mind . josh : oh , no , you can change your mind . it 's just that if you do that , you 're the one who 's going to have to go upstairs and haul all of my bags downstairs . reva : oh , no . no , no , no . josh : ( laughs ) reva : that 's too much work . you can stay . josh : yeah ? reva : mm - hmm . joshua ? josh : hmm ? reva : do n't ever walk out that door again . the kids need you . and i need you . josh : i 'm not going anywhere . you know , when you 're in jail you get a lot of time to think about things . reva : ( laughs ) i remember . josh : yeah , i 'm sure you do . and i thought a lot about our family . about how much you mean to me and how much the kids mean to me and how we are going to ... we 're going to get through this thing and we 're going to do it together . reva : oh , hello . must have left it open to crack on the last trip . what do you want ? josh : i have everything that i want right here . so why do n't you come back over here and have a seat with ? reva ? what is it ? reva : you 're home now . and that 's all the matters . cop : you have a visitor . marah : jeffrey ? i knew you would come . carrie : and i knew you would kill me . so innocent , so sweet on the outside , but inside cold and heartless . just like your father , just the men that left maryanne to die . marah : i had no choice . caarie : no choice . marah : you had a gun . you were going to shoot . carrie : i had this . marah : no . no , you had a gun . i saw it . carrie : i had this . it had a compact and a lipstick . marah : i saw the gun . you shot buzz . carrie : you shot buzz . have you forgotten ? you were out of control . what a selective memory you have . all i wanted was compassion , remorse , regret and apology . but you wanted something else . you wanted me dead ! ( echoing ) and now my blood is on your hands forever . carrie : do n't bother , my dear . the blood will never come off . never , never , never , never ... ( laughs ) ( marah gasping ) jeffrey : hey . marah ? you okay ? it was just a dream . it was a bad dream . come on . you 're okay . everything 's all right . you had a bad dream . gus : next on `` guiding light ... `` bill : spaulding , lewis collaborations have n't been so successful in the past . olivia : maybe it 's time to change that . phillip : i feel the same way about you being a part of emma 's life . emma ? phillip : my baby with olivia . emma . alan : congratulations on your attempt to bring down spaulding . you came very close . but there 's one thing you missed . you do not have what it takes to bring me down . | reva recognizes jeffrey 's concern for her daughter and directs him to the pool house . there , marina has returned to comfort marah and tell her that she 's denying herself the human contact ( jeffrey ) she needs . marah ca n't help blaming herself for being used by carrie , for naively doing exactly what carrie wanted her to do . when jeffrey appears , marah 's first impulse is to send him away . but he fights through her defenses , urging her to see herself as he sees her ; brave , not weak , strong , not gullible . his words and his love are able to soothe her and marah falls asleep in his arms . josh begins the day handing the reins of power at lewis construction over to bill on a permanent basis . bill is ready for the challenge . for his part , josh is ready to devote himself fully to his family , now more than ever . but when he shows up at reva 's house with his toothbrush , she is n't sure if this is a visit or a more lasting arrangement . she is overjoyed when josh brings in the rest of his baggage and says that he 's here to stay . harley tries to get buzz to talk about the events at the fairgrounds . carrie may be dead , but harley believes the evil lives after her . buzz does n't want to talk about it and wishes that the whole thing could just be over . but when marina provides some missing details of carrie 's dirty tricks , the cave in , the razor blade and the gas leak , harley becomes more convinced that her family needs the kind of protection harley 's angels was meant to provide . now , if only she could work a miracle for gus and have alan call to accept the deal that gus offered him . | <s>[INST] reva : should you be here ? jeffrey : probably not . reva : then maybe you should go . jeffrey : is she all right ? reva : as well as can be expected . jeffrey : oh , so she 's here then . she 's staying ... reva : she 's staying until all of this is over . jeffrey : you know , reva , i wish i could snap my fingers and make this murder case go away . reva : you 're walking a very thin line , jeffrey . jeffrey : i know what i 'm doing . reva : you can still walk away . jeffrey : no , i can't . reva : then we should talk . ( knock at the door ) marah : who is it ? marina : me . marah : hey . marina : hey . marah : where 's shayne ? marina : i 'll catch up with him later . marah : you do n't have to do this . marina : do what ? what am i doing ? marah : coming in here to cheer me up . marina : nah . i came here to sulk with you . you got another pair of slippers ? look , marah , i saw the look on your face when you saw me and shayne together . marah : i 'm just happy for you guys . i 'm glad that you two have each other . marina : yeah , i 'm glad , too . because i could n't get through this alone . which brings me to you . marah : what about me ? marina : what happened at the fairgrounds is going to stay with us . you especially . you were inside . you ... marah : killed someone . marina : you should n't be alone right now . marah : so what are you going to do ? stay with me till this is over ? marina : why not ? marah : i ca n't ask you to do that . marina : well , then ask somebody else . is there anyone else ? marah : no . marina : who , marah ? marah : you know what ? it does n't matter . nobody can help me anyway . i just keep replaying that night over and over again . i shot carrie . how 's that for irony ? could n't even remember what happened and now i ca n't forget . marina : you have to stop beating yourself up . it was self defense . you did what you had to do . marah : no . i did exactly what carrie wanted me to do . josh : hey . billy : yeah . thanks . josh : did you talk to him ? billy : yeah . josh : you told him ? billy : he knows everything . josh : is he coming ? billy : well , not right away . he 's going to take a drive . i guess let things sink , but he 'll be here pretty soon . buzz : what are you guys doing out here ? come on in , i 'll buy lunch . josh : no , thank you . we 're waiting for somebody . buzz : i went to the station . i made a statement . i changed my statement . billy : we went in there this morning . buzz : i ca n't wait for this to be over with . i am so sick of answering questions , you know . come on in if you get cold . oh , god . harley : where you at the station ? what happened ? buzz : i gave the police my statement . harley : you mean you changed your statement . big difference . buzz : i do n't want to talk about this . i do n't want to talk about this . harley : well , dad , there 's a lot of stuff that we have to talk about . buzz : wait a second . how do you know ? harley : what do you think ? why did n't you tell me ? buzz : well , it happened a long time ago . harley : that 's not an answer . buzz : i do n't want to go into this . harley : well , then wh ? buzz : you 're asking me something about that happened 25 years ago . will you ask me something that happened now ? i can only deal with one thing at once , okay . harley : okay , okay . fine , fine , fine . let 's talk about what happened just now . buzz : okay . all you have to know is that everything we did , me , billy , alan , josh , we did to protect someone . we made our statements ... our first statements to protect marah . a lot of good it did . we could be prosecuted for obstructing justice and she 's as worse off . harley : well , i 'm thinking about marah , too . i still have questions about what happened that night at the fairgrounds . buzz : oh , good god . harley : dad , please . buzz : do you remember the chat we had a couple of days ago where you said you would n't push ? harley : yeah , but that 's before i learned that you falsified a statement . before i learned about mary caruthers . buzz : i do n't want to talk ... i do n't want to talk about this . harley : yeah , well , not talking about things though has worked out real well for you has n't it , dad ? buzz : i want this to be over with , okay ? drop it . gus : hey , babe . harley : hey , you . gus : what 's wrong ? harley : my dad . you ? gus : oh , your dad . my dad . harley : so you still have n't heard from alan ? gus : no , no , and i 'm suppose to hear from him today , but he conveniently disappears . harley : yeah , my father conveniently disappeared , too . into the kitchen ! gus : hmm . well , it seems that both of our dads are avoiding us . harley : yeah , looks like it . i 'm not surprised . are you ? gus : no . and i 'll tell you what . i do n't think we should take it . harley : i do n't think we should take it either . gus : i did it again . i put the money on my father , the big shot . and where did it get me ? it got me no where . i 'm an idiot . harley : it got you here with me . gus : i 'm nowhere . i 'm absolutely nowhere with my own father . i went all the way out on a limb to cut a deal for this guy . harley : i know . gus : no , all he had to do was cooperate with the feds , just let the spaulding investigation happen . but you do think he could step up to the plate ? no . harley : of course he could n't do it , hon . gus : yeah , well , why is that ? why do you think that is ? harley : because alan is alan . gus : what is that all about ? harley : and that 's just the way that he does things . but i am sorry for you . and i 'm sorry for him , because it 's a good deal . i thought he 'd take it . gus : i gave him till today . i said , you know , wrestle with your conscious . but you know , it 's funny , because the jokes on me . because the man 's got no conscience . he cares more about his own company than his own son . that does n't make sense to me . harley : see what 's happening here is that you 're new to is that you 're new to the whole being - disappointed - by - your- father thing . it 's a god thing i 'm here to show you the ropes . gus : why ? what did your father do ? harley : went down to the police station , changed his statement . gus : you 're kidding me . so he went down to say that he falsified the first statement ? harley : yep . gus : so he went down to correct himself ? harley : yeah . gus : so . but that 's a god thing , right ? that 's good . harley : see , but there 's a small problem here . the problem is that we still have not talked about the whole thing that happened at the fairgrounds . we still have n't talked about maryanne caruthers . gus : give him time . harley : i 'm sick of giving him time . you know what i mean ? i am sick of it always being about him . what if just this one time he thought about the stress that he 's causing us ? what if this one time he , you know , he came through for us ? gus : i understand , baby . but at least he did n't run . harley : no , but he may as well have . because you know what ? he 's here physically , but he is shut down . i mean he says to me , he just wants the whole thing to go way . but i have to tell you , i do n't think it 's that simple . gus : this caruther 's woman is dead , right ? how much ... how much trouble can she cause from the grave ? none , right ? none . harley : no . do n't be so sure . billy : here he comes . bill : i want you to know that i 'm still not entirely okay with everything that happened . josh : well , neither are we . bill : i mean , you guys , you 're my heroes . i 've grown up watching everything that you two went through . watching you recover from things that a lesser man could n't . and all a while you were carrying around this secret . billy : no , no ... bill : dad , please , just let me finish . you were carrying around this secret . and i know you ... i know you did n't do it just to protect yourselves . i know you did it protect the ones that you love . i 'm not saying you did the right thing , okay ? but i understand why you did it . and a step up , like you are now with so much more at stake . so much more to lose . it just ... it says a lot . says a lot . and i just want you to know that i ... you know whatever happens , i 'm not looking for any new heroes , that 's all . billy : thank you . bill : yeah . so anyway , how 's marah doing ? josh : holding up . bill : good . well , if there 's anything i can do , anything at all you just let me know . josh : that 's actually ... that 's why we asked you to meet us , bill . billy : yeah . son , i always knew this day was going to come and i guess we hoped it would be under circumstances , but ... bill : whoa , whoa , what are you talking about ? billy : well , josh and i got our hands full right now . josh : yeah and i ... obviously i want to spend more time with reva and marah and shayne . bill : yeah . look if this is about lewis construction , you know , you need me to pick up the slack for a while longer , it 's not ... billy : no , no ... bill : ... not a problem . billy : it 's not just picking up the slack . we kind of want you to run the company . josh : we want you to run lewis construction , bill , on a permanent basis . jeffrey : so why did you let me in ? reva : to thank you . i know that sounds strange , but ever since marah confessed , you have gone out of your way to protect her . and josh and i are very grateful . but i also know you have a job to do . jeffrey : well , yeah , i might not have one when this is over . reva : so that 's why you can be here because you do n't care ? does n't matter ? jeffrey : watching marah relive that night ... reva : a lot of men would take advantage of her ... jeffrey : no . reva : use her words against her . jeffrey : no , no , no . anyone that knows marah like i know her , anyone who cares about her like i ... reva : jeffrey . jeffrey : what ? reva : that fine line that you were walking , you just crossed it . marah : some strange old lady who travels through tunnels ends up in our living room , and do we call the cops ? no . marina : marah ... marah : she passes out these magic rings to us , and do we question her ? no . no . we ... magic rings . what are we like five years old ? marina : marah ... marah : she asked us to drill our parents , and do we refuse ? do we question her ? no . we do whatever she wants . marina : marah , stop . we 'll go crazy . carrie made us believe that we were helping our families . she convinced us that she could make our wishes come true . yeah , it may have sound stupid now , but it did n't then . not when i wanted shayne to walk again . not when michelle wanted to redeem danny 's name . marah : you know what ? this is exactly what she wanted . she wanted one of us to kill her that night . what better way to get back at the men that you 've hated for all of these years ? and i did it . i killed her . marina : no . you stopped her from killing your dad , and my grandfather and everyone else who was there that night . if i had been standing there , i hope that i would have had the courage to do the same thing . marah : courage does n't make you fire a gun , marina . fear does . and now a woman is dead because of it . marina : a mad woman is dead . and if the d . a . understood that ... marah : stop . just leave him out of this , okay . marina : what ? marah : jeffrey hates this as much as i do , all right . i do n't know what i would have done without him . he helped me . okay , he could have been fired , but he did n't care . and now because of me , we 'll never get a chance ... marah : jeffrey o'neill was your wish . josh : bill , you 've got what it takes to run lewis construction . bill : look , i do n't want it , okay , not like this . and look , it means everything to me that you think i can run the business . and i do n't want to be ungrateful here , but i do n't want to cash in on other people 's misfortune . josh : we 're not other people . we 're family . bill : which makes it even worse . billy : no , no , we do n't see it like that . family means that come along and you pick up the flag when somebody else in the family ca n't carry it . and josh and i definitely can not carry the flag . so you 're going to come along and pick it up or what ? you really do n't owe us anything , but it would mean the absolute world to us if you did . bill : well , i 'm going to make you proud . ( laughter ) billy : you already have . bill : thanks , uncle josh . josh : you have earned this , okay . now the lawyers are drawing up the paperwork as we speak . bill : oh , is that right ? josh : and there will be an announcement made later on today . so ... bill : so you knew i was going to say yes , is that right ? josh : we had a pretty good idea . bill : all right . josh : and do n't let the power go to your head . and listen to me now . you watch your back . you 're in charge now , so people are going to be coming out of the woodwork to get a piece of you , okay ? bill : look if you want more time to think about it for a second , i completely understand . billy : wait a second . do you think it 's okay ? bill : okay . all right . billy : it 's a done deal , right ? bill : you got it . billy : i think our work here is done , brother . bill : oh , wait minute now . you ca n't just leave . let me at least give you some lunch or something . seal the deal . billy : lunch ? bill : yeah . billy : he actually thinks he has time for lunch . does he has time for lunch ? josh : no , he does n't have time for lunch . you 're in charge of a big company @ 7éw . so go to work , mr . lewis . billy : you heard the man . jeffrey : i know what you 're thinking . reva : no , you do n't know what i 'm thinking . but i do know what i saw the way you looked at marah the night of the valentine 's dance . jeffrey : reva , i 've been trying to keep her away . i tried to push her away . i really did . reva : but what ? you 're tough as nails district attorney was no match for my young daughter ? what are you doing , jeffrey ? jeffrey : i know . i 'm going to have to stay away from her . i 'm also going to have to recluse from this case . but not now . not until i know that she 's ready for what 's coming up for her . i 'm going to stand by her for as long as i can . reva : for her sake or for your own ? jeffrey : for both of us . reva : she 's ... she 's in the pool house . go , please before i change my mind . marah : you and jeffrey o'neill . i mean i knew you two knew each other , but ... i lived with you . how did i not know this ? marah : we had a lot of other things that we were dealing with . marina : yeah , but ... are you two ... marah : are we what ? marina : like in love or anything ? marah : marina . marina : please . it is such a joy to talk about something other than you know who . just tell me . marah : it was n't like that . we had an agreement . marina : what kind of an agreement ? marah : actually , it was more of a contract . marina : a contract . what did you get yourself into , marah ? marah : there 's no strings attached . you know , whatever happened happened . and we had no obligation to each other . marina : no obligation . sounds like a cd of the month club . marah : you do n't understand . it was n't easy to do , but it was still good . and now jeffrey has to go back to his job . and i have to face up to what i 've done . maybe ... maybe it could have been different . maybe he could have cared the way i care for him . i do n't know , you know . it does n't matter anymore . marina : if you care about him , it matters . ( knock at the door ) god , is that one of those stupid reporters ? marina : i got it . jeffrey : is marah here ? marina : yeah , sure . it 's him . lose the slippers . you ready ? marah : yeah . jeffrey : hi . marah : hi . i thought you could n't see me . jeffrey : you okay ? marah : yeah , i 'm fine . i 've got my friends and my family . you do n't need to worry about me . i 'm fine . jeffrey : well , you know , did it ever occur to you that i might not be . marah : you should go . jeffrey : yeah , i know ... i know i should go . but i ca n't , marah . i won't . i need you . we need each other . marah : why would you want to be with somebody like me ? jeffrey : how could you ask me that ? marah : because , jeffrey , i killed somebody . jeffrey : shh . it 's okay . marah : no , no , it 's not okay . gosh , when you 're at trial and people confessed that they 've killed somebody , do you just tell them that it 's okay ? jeffrey : that 's not you . you 're not one of those people . marah : yes , i am . i became one of those people as soon as i pulled the trigger . jeffrey : no . listen , you know it 's true . when you pull the trigger , when you take a life you can never go back . marah : you know ? jeffrey : i know that we all make mistakes , marah . but protecting someone that you love is not a mistake . marah : is that what you think that i did ? is that what you 're doing ? jeffrey : do n't put up a wall like i did , okay , to trey to keep out the hurt . that 's what carrie wants you to do . marah : every time i think about her ... jeffrey : do n't think about it . do n't even think about what would have happened if you had n't done what you did . marah : carrie would still be alive . jeffrey : someone else might not be . someone that you love might not be . you might not be . marah : jeffrey , i know you 're not supposed to be here , but can you stay anyway , please . jeffrey : oh , god , i 'll stay as long as you want me to . buzz : ( moans ) bill : hey , buzz . i did n't even hear the door open . buzz : i came out the back door . i needed some air . bill : yeah , me , too . buzz : i got a kid in there that has questions and i do n't have the answers . bill : i bet she does . i know what happened . buzz : ah . that 's why you have the weight of the world on your shoulders ... thinking about your old man . bill : `` the weight of the world , `` that 's about right . you know , i 've been filling in over at lewis construction while everything was going on . but now my uncle josh and my dad want me to run the company permanently.ñ buzz : wow . well , congratulations . is this the realization of a life long dream . bill : heck no . i wanted to be a fireman . buzz : well , i heard that company be putting out some fires . bill : you know , the funny thing is i just never thought i would end up in my hometown running the family business . i always thought i was going to get out there and do something different with my life . buzz : well , as i recall , you did get out there for awhile . ( laughs ) that is the thing about family , is n't it ? it just pulls you back whether you want it or not . i guess you just have to take it as a challenge . you got to make your own world . you got to get what you want right there in the middle of the people that know you best . people who , you know , for better for worse , think they know what 's best for you , you know what i mean ? keep me posted . bill : yeah , i will . buzz : i 've got to back in there and put out a fire . w3 harley : dad , we need to talk . buzz : i want to talk to him . would you please remind your fiancée , a . k.a . , my daughter that she is no longer on the police payroll and that her old man has been interrogated enough for one day . gus : okay . what he said . harley : would you please tell my father that his daughter has no desire to interrogate him . i just want to prevent some trouble . buzz : aye . gus : what she said . buzz : what kind of trouble ? gus : she 's worried about this caruther 's chick coming back and doing something from the grave . buzz : she 's dead . gus : exactly . buzz : she 's shot . she fell in the river . harley : dad . she nursed that grudge for years . she planned everything , including her own death . i 'm just saying i would n't put it past her to have left behind some nightmares to live on after her . you know what they say about revenge . buzz : it 's best served cold ? harley : yes . so if carrie is cold and dead in some watery grave , now will be the time to watch our backs . marina : what do you mean if ? carrie 's dead . you told me she was dead . ( knock at the door ) reva : oh , jeffrey , i swear . joshua . josh : were you expecting somebody ? reva : jeffrey o'neill again . josh : again , huh ? reva : yes , he was here to see marah . josh : ah . reva : i know . i was n't exactly thrilled about it either . but you know what ? i think that we could trust him with our daughter . besides , she 's a grown woman now . josh : ( laughs ) reva : it 's true . josh : i know . i know . and this may sound surprising . but i actually think he 's a pretty good guy . stand up guy , you know . reva : i pretty much said the same thing to him . josh : she saved my life . reva : i know . josh : i just ca n't believe this is happening to her now . i just ... i hate everything about it . reva : i 'm worried that it 's all just the beginning . josh : and she 's not going to go to jail , reva . i promise you that . i 'm going to do everything i can to make sure she has the best possible representation in court , i 'll talk to the judge , the jury , the press , whoever i have to talk to make sure people understand that this was self defense . and that 's actually going to be a pretty full - time job for me . so i thought i 'd better tell you that earlier billy and i gave the company over to bill . reva : are you sure ? that company has been your life 's work . josh : well , bill is definitely ready . and the company 's not my life 's work . you are my life work , our children , our kids . that 's my life 's work . reva : we 're a little more high maintenance than the company . josh : well , that 's true , but i like the challenge . reva : you know what the real challenge is going to be ? you being a part of this family and still living at the beacon . josh : yeah . i 'm actually glad you brought that up , because i was wondering if -- ( clears his throat ) -- maybe i could leave this here ? reva : in the study ? josh : well , wherever you want me to leave it , i guess will be fine . but i ... reva : is that your toothbrush ? josh : yes . reva : i think i can make up the guest room for it . fresh sheets , towels ... josh : no . i 'm sorry . that wo n't work . reva : oh . i understand . baby steps . josh : no , no , it 's just that i intensely dislike the wallpaper in the guestroom . i was thinking maybe the master bedroom , you know , our room . what do you think about that ? reva : are you sure ? josh : yeah , i 'm sure . eh so i guess this means i can put my toothbrush upstairs . reva : wait , wait , wait . you know , i love that you want to be a part of this , be here . and i do n't want to push , but ... josh : but ? reva : i do n't want to get my hopes up that ... that this is something more than just temporary . so if ... if you 're not planning on moving all the way in , then maybe you should go back to the beacon . p1o josh : you want to give me a hand with this stuff ? i figured i 'd leave it outside until i got the okay on the toothbrush . reva : oh . josh : what ? reva : you 're home . josh : yes . marina : carrie 's dead . she has to be dead . buzz : she 's dead . she 's dead . she 's dead . look , she 's not going to hurt us or you ever again . marina : but aunt harley just said ... buzz : no , no , no . she 's just saying that maybe she left a little surprise or something , you know , for everybody after . she 's gone . harley : yeah , right . gus : but don't ... harley : you mean like the cave - in ? gus : the what ? harley : what cave - in ? there was this one time when i was down in the tunnels on my way to carrie 's room and the walls collapsed on me . buzz : when did this happen ? harley : what ? gus : what tunnels ? harley : i do n't know . it was a while ago . marah and michelle got me out . we do n't know that carrie planned it , but it was right after the razor blade . buzz : the razor blade ? harley : what razor blade ? marina : you know , the razor blade that was stuck in marah 's doll . so when she reached out to get it ... buzz : you know about this ? marina : we do n't know that carrie was involved , but it was all right after the gas leak in michelle 's fireplace . and we never ever found out how that happened . so ... gus : what gas leak ? harley : you still think there 's nothing to worry about , dad ? buzz : there is nothing to worry about . gus : well , there 's nothing to worry about because there 's no real proof . so let 's just calm down . harley : the proof is in the setups . the proof is in the traps . look at it . buzz : hey , could you get me a cream soda ? marina : no , i want to hear this . what do you think carrie has planned ? harley : i do n't know . maybe nothing , okay . but when you see everything else , i ... i would n't put it past her to have left behind some surprises . marina : so what are we going to do about it ? harley : we 're not doing anything about it . marina , you 're out of this . marina : so what are you going to do about it ? harley : i 'm going to protect my family . t ( jeffrey : take a nap . okay , i 'll go . marah : no . can you stay ? at least until i fall asleep ? jeffrey : sure . marah : thank you . jeffrey : what ? marah : i was just thinking . i used to have a stuffed bear that i slept with when i was little . jeffrey : really ? marah : mm - hmm . i called him , mr . bear . jeffrey : that 's very original . marah : none of the girls my age could have handled a bear like him . jeffrey : and why is that ? marah : because he looked ferocious . but i knew better . josh : thank you so much for your help . i appreciate that . reva : so i guess it 's too late for me to change my mind . josh : oh , no , you can change your mind . it 's just that if you do that , you 're the one who 's going to have to go upstairs and haul all of my bags downstairs . reva : oh , no . no , no , no . josh : ( laughs ) reva : that 's too much work . you can stay . josh : yeah ? reva : mm - hmm . joshua ? josh : hmm ? reva : do n't ever walk out that door again . the kids need you . and i need you . josh : i 'm not going anywhere . you know , when you 're in jail you get a lot of time to think about things . reva : ( laughs ) i remember . josh : yeah , i 'm sure you do . and i thought a lot about our family . about how much you mean to me and how much the kids mean to me and how we are going to ... we 're going to get through this thing and we 're going to do it together . reva : oh , hello . must have left it open to crack on the last trip . what do you want ? josh : i have everything that i want right here . so why do n't you come back over here and have a seat with ? reva ? what is it ? reva : you 're home now . and that 's all the matters . cop : you have a visitor . marah : jeffrey ? i knew you would come . carrie : and i knew you would kill me . so innocent , so sweet on the outside , but inside cold and heartless . just like your father , just the men that left maryanne to die . marah : i had no choice . caarie : no choice . marah : you had a gun . you were going to shoot . carrie : i had this . marah : no . no , you had a gun . i saw it . carrie : i had this . it had a compact and a lipstick . marah : i saw the gun . you shot buzz . carrie : you shot buzz . have you forgotten ? you were out of control . what a selective memory you have . all i wanted was compassion , remorse , regret and apology . but you wanted something else . you wanted me dead ! ( echoing ) and now my blood is on your hands forever . carrie : do n't bother , my dear . the blood will never come off . never , never , never , never ...

[ jessica chuckles ] brody : well , you may have read about it . um , the doctors are calling it ptsd , but the simple truth is i -- i knocked a girl out , i kidnapped a kid , and i shot a guy . jessica : is that it ? brody : your story 's so much worse ? [ jessica scoffs ] jessica : uh , you have no idea . [ scene_break ] viki : go away , charlie . leave me alone . charlie : well , i ca n't do that . viki : i do n't want you to see me like this . charlie : do you remember when you found me in the alley ? i did n't want you to see me like that , either . dead drunk . but you did n't walk out on me , and i 'm not going to walk out on you . and that 's just the way it 's going to be . viki : do you know what this place is ? charlie : some kind of a crypt ? viki : yeah , it 's my father 's final resting place . do n't you love euphemisms ? this is his grave . i -- i hate -- i hate my father . want to know why ? charlie : i want to know everything about you , viki . viki : because he -- i ca n't do this to you . charlie : why ? viki : because i was just viki d. to you . i was simple and uncomplicated . i was just someone who loved working in the diner . i was n't victor lord 's daughter . see , when i met you , charlie , you were my new start . all this -- it was all going to be over . but it will never be over . i know that now . jessica is in a mental hospital , and her babies are at home crying for her . todd , he 's in the hospital . he 's going to jail . and my sister tina was so afraid to look at the mess she 's made of her life that she was going to let our children die , and so i threw her out -- out of my house and out of my life . my life . i 'm stuck , charlie . i 'm stuck . you know , this is who i am and you do n't want any part of it . i do n't want any part of it . i want it gone . i want him gone . i want to kill him , but he 's dead . he escaped . and i 'm stuck . charlie : oh , viki -- viki : no , no , please -- please just leave me alone , please . charlie : look , i 'm not going anywhere . viki : no , no ! my father raped me . when i was seven years old , he raped me . and then he did it again and again and again , and it went on for years . and my mind split and i became other people . and when jessica was just a little girl , one of those people left her in a bar and she was picked up by a stranger and she was raped . and she was n't even seven . this will never be over -- not for todd , not for tina , not for jessica , and not for me . we ca n't escape it . all we can hope to do is to die before we poison anyone else . charlie : shh , shh , shh . [ viki sobs ] [ scene_break ] brody : so lay it on me . what 's your story ? jessica : um , okay , where do i begin ? i have a disorder called d.i.d . , which is basically multiple personalities . and one of my alters -- which is what the other personalities are called -- tried to kill my sister and her boyfriend three times . brody : three times , huh ? jessica : mm - hmm . um , first she cut the brake lines in her car , and then she tried to poison them . and then when that did n't work , she built a hidden room in the basement of our house and locked them up there for months and tortured them , telling them what she would do to them . and then when she got tired of that , she built a bomb to blow them to bits . right . i win . [ scene_break ] viki : i wanted to tear this place down . i do n't want to look at it anymore . i should 've done it years ago , you know ? but then i thought , i 'll leave it because it 's a reminder of how far i 've come . but i have n't gone anywhere . i 'm right back where i started . i 'm just a victim , and that 's all i 'll ever be is just a victim . and all the things that i tried to do with my life , they 're meaningless because when people remember me , they will only think that when i was a little girl , my father ended my life . [ scene_break ] brody : you win all right . [ jessica scoffs ] jessica : well , i did n't mean to scare you . brody : no . i 'm just -- i 'm not used to all this . jessica : of course you 're not . you know , you have your stuff , too . i did n't mean to minimize it . i just wanted you understand that the way people look in here does n't mean a thing , you know ? barb ? she would n't hurt a fly . i mean , she 's afraid of everything . that 's why she ca n't exist on the outside , you know ? so do yourself a favor and do n't assume anything about anybody and then you 'll be much better off . brody : any other advice before the therapy starts tomorrow ? jessica : you do n't like therapy ? brody : uh , well , i 've never done it . and i do n't like talking about myself . [ jessica chuckles ] jessica : well , you should kind of get over that . because the sooner you lift up that rock and dig out all the muck that 's underneath , the sooner you can get better and go home to your family . that 's the whole point , right ? [ scene_break ] rex : he 's captain america . shane did a whole comic book about him . gigi : yo , balsom . brody is in a mental hospital and not prison . why ? because you were man enough and good enough and understanding enough to go to the d.a . and try to work out a deal for a guy who blew a hole in your gut . so who is the hero here ? rex : to you maybe , not to shane . gigi : he 's 10 years old . rex : and he has no use for me , and i do n't blame him . where was i when he lost his first tooth , learned to ride a bike for the first time , or failed his first math test ? gigi : he 's good at math . and brody was n't there for any of that , either . rex : well , but he sure as hell made up for it . gigi : and you will , too . you just have to give it some time . and you 've got to stop competing with a guy who 's so messed up , he ca n't even be trusted to walk around free . this is n't high school , balsom . brody is n't the captain of the football team , and you 're not on the bench . he 's a mental patient with no family and no prospects and not a whole lot of hope . rex : well , now i feel like a jerk . gigi : well , that wo n't work , either . you just have to be a little patient . brody 's out of the picture now , and you 're going to have lots of chances to spend time with shane . and once he gets to know you , he 's going to love you just as much as i do . [ scene_break ] cristian : what the hell was that ? coming down on vanessa for wanting to stay in america ? an immigrant , on thanksgiving day . sarah : i 'm sorry if i 'm not p.c . enough for you , but i am a realist . and you and vanessa ? you guys are living in a dream world -- an r - rated one . cristian : i do n't believe this . you 're jealous .

[ scene_break ] sarah : cristian , you and i have had maybe five minutes together since you got back from colombia . and the rest of the time , you 're playing bodyguard to some woman that we know nothing about . cristian : a woman that broke me out of prison . sarah : she paid a bribe , cris . it 's not like she came swinging through a window with a bayonet in her teeth . although , you know what ? i would n't put it past her if you gave her enough money , pole , a little spotlight -- cristian : all right , sarah , come on . come on . sarah : she was climbing all over you , half naked . cristian : so you are jealous . is that what this is ? sarah : no , i 'm mad ! and i 'm not stupid . a woman does n't lounge around in a guy 's apartment unless she wants something . cristian : she needs my help , sarah . sarah : is that what you call it ? cristian : let me ask you something . remember when you were hanging out with that guy , hunter , that creep , and you needed my help ? sarah : yeah . cristian : i helped you , no questions asked . sarah : we do n't know anything about her though , cris . cristian : and that 's a reason not to help her ? she needs my help . i helped you . you stayed at my place . sarah : yeah , yeah , i did . and look what happened .

[ scene_break ] gigi : so . ahem . did n't you say that bo invited us over for dinner ? rex : yeah . we do n't have to go if you have to do this thing for charlie . why ? gigi : because i have a plan to get this father - son thing jumpstarted . [ scene_break ] charlie : this , um , place -- it looks like indiana limestone . viki : i do n't know what it is . charlie : these walls are at least a foot thick , so i 'll need a backhoe . and i 'll need a couple of good men , and i 'll need a pretty good truck to haul all this up on . but if you really want to tear this place down , i know just the guy for the job . he 's a real pro . and i can guarantee you his rates will be reasonable . viki : it wo n't change anything . charlie : well , it 'll change the landscape . but no , it 's not -- it 's not going to change the past , nothing ever will . but , viki -- see , i do n't see you as a victim . i see you as a survivor like i am . we 're going to have our good days , and we 're going to have our bad days . but if there 's one thing i 've learned , it 's that if i just take things one day at a time , then i at least got a shot . and that 's all we 've really got . right now . and it 's what we do right now that counts . come on . viki : no -- charlie : yes , viki . i love you more right now than ever . while i wish that i could beat the living crap out of your father , and my heart breaks for that little girl , none of that could change how i feel about the woman standing in front of me right now . so come on . i want to show you something .

shawn - d : i do . i do n't want you to go , but how can i possibly tell you not to do something good in your life ?

marlena : there is still the question that tony raised -- the question of my being a mother to you . something has happened that -- that changes everything ... changes my relationship with you . ththat 's why i wanted to talk to you today . belle : why are you shutting me out of your life if that 's not what you want ? shawn - d : to protect you . belle : shawn , if you say that to me one more time -- shawn - d : i 'm not the same person , okay ? belle : as what , as you were before colin was killed ? i know that that is what this is about -- the night of victor and nicole 's wedding -- because that 's when you started pulling away from me . shawn - d : you just have to stay away from me , okay ? that 's all there is to it . belle : whatever is going on , is it more dangerous than what happened on t i island ? is it worse than jan 's pregnancy ? shawn , we got through all of that , and i think our love is stronger because of it . i am not scared of anything when i 'm with you . so just tell me . whatever it is , we can work through it together . i - i just have to know , 'cause i ca n't do this anymore . did you know thatregular - sized pads craig : okay , this is -- this is crazy . it does n't say `` a `` or `` b , `` which piece is `` a `` or `` b. `` i 'm a doctor . i should -- nancy : [ giggling ] craig : i - i 'm taking a break , okay ?

i mean , so that i would be rcrced to give up my baby for adoption . i mean , maybe there was some kind of payoff . craig : okay , look , nancy , you 're shaking , and this is exactly why i do n't want to talk about this now , okay ? nancy : craig , craig , we should call my father . craig : no . nancy : craig , he was chief of staff at the hospital when chloe was born . when he finds out about the ultrasound , he 'll be just as upset as we are . craig : nancy , i do n't call anybody , especially your dad . do you understand me ? nancy : you act like you do n't want to know . craig : no , no . sweetheart , honey , of course i want to know . i want to know what happened in that hospital 19 years ago just as much as you , and -- look , the things that we should be focusing on right now , the things that we should really care about , are curing chloe and making sure that you and this baby are safe , and once that -- once that 's happened , honey , i promise you we will -- we 'll dig in the past , okay ? okay ? chloe : i 'm going to be back in the hospital soon , in isolation . brady : you think that 's going to stop me from seeing you ? chloe , i 'm going to be right outside your room , making faces at you through the window , writing love letters on the glass , and whispering to you over the phone -- until they censor my calls , of course . chloe : ha ha . my sister 's going to be born in the spring . you know , that 's my favorite time of year -- everything comes back to life again . brady : well , i think spring is going to come a little early for you this year . chloe : what do you mean ?

chloe : grape hyacinth . brady : yes . and some other things that i picked up from the nursery . i planted them last fall when you were in chemo . welcome to chloe 's garden . chloe : thank you . thank you for believing and loving me . brady : by the time you 're back in the hospital , chloe , there 's going to be a blanket of flowers down there . i 'm going to have to bring them to you by the carload . belle : if i 'm going to paris , i have to let them know right away . shawn - d : then i guess you better do that . belle : that 's it ? shawn - d : no . no , there is so much more . every time i look at you ... i think about the lastlast dance and ... how you looked and felt in my arms ... and how long it took me to get up the nerve to kiss you for the first time . shawn - d : i 'm going to miss you so much . belle : please do n't let me go . cassie : did you change your mind ? you want to be our mother now ? marlena : i want us to stay close . this friendship is very important to me . rex : but ... marlena : you know , last time we talked , i did n't handle things very well , and cassie got upset . rex : we just feel like we 're getting mixed messages from you , you know ? we do n't know whether we should go or to stay . cassie : which is it ? marlena : you know what ? i can see how it very confusing . i 'm sorry . i hope i can make you understand this . you see , as a therapist , it 's important for me to have some distance from my patients so that i can be objective and i can be helpful , and if i do n't do that , people i care about like you can get hurt , like when tony suggested that i -- that i be like a mother to you , it made me realize that i have very deep feelings for both of you , and -- and that would mean that i would not be a very effective therapist for you . rex : so what are you saying ? cassie : she 's kissing us off . marlena : cassie , no . no . cassie : the hell you 're not . why are you doing this to us ? do n't you care at all ? marlena : i care more than you could possibly know . this is hard for me , too . cassie : do n't touch me . just stop pretending . we 're nothing but lab rats to you . we 're specimens that you use and toss through and throw away when you 're done . marlena : no . no , that 's not so . cassie : i hate you . i hate you , and i never want to see you again . rex : cassie , wait . cassie : we do n't belong here , rex . we never did . rex : you have n't even heard her out . cassie : you trust her . you are a fool . fine , just stay here . i do n't care . just leave me alone . marlena : rex , let her go . let her go . rex : she 's myisister . i 'm all that she has now . do you know what you 've done ? do you have any idea of the hell you 're putting her through ? john : whoa , i 'm sorry . hey , what 's the rush ? cassie : get out of my way . john : out of your way , huh ? why , where 's marlena ? cassie : your wife threw us out . john : oh . cassie : and you put her up to this . you know , i hate you , and i hate her . i 'm a dimera now . all dimera . meet kate , the dark raven , marlena : i will always bebe here for you and cassie . you know that . rex : i ca n't talk about this now . marlena : rex , i just ca n't be your therapist , that 's all . rex : we get the message . you 're pulling away . marlena : i - i have a decision to make . you know -- you 're studying psychology at university . a therapist ca n't get overly involved with their patients . rex : maybe cassie and i were just another caseload to you , since you were so much more to us . just cassie got too dependent on you , and now that you keep rejecting her , she feels like something 's wrong with her , like she 's not worth anything . our own mother did n't want us , and now you don't . m marlena : that 's so far from the truth . rex : you keep pulling away for no reason , you know , and now cassie -- she acts like she does n't even trust me anymore . marlena : what do you mean ? rex : she keeps secrets from me . she 's never done that . and she 's going after things not thinking of the effect it 'll have on other people . marlena : well , i 'll see if i can help , i promise . rex : you know , i think it 'd be better if you just stay away . i think it 'd be even easier if we do n't see you at all . [ door closes ] john : you better hope you 're not a dimera , honey . cassie : you know , if tony is my father , i will be so proud to take his name because he and lexie are the only people that have stood by me and rex through everything . john : oh , wake up . they 're dangerous . cassie : no , you are dangerous . you poisoned marlena against us from the moment rex and i set foot in this town . you 've been against us , and you 've treated us like monsters . john : well , unfortunately , you 're connected to people who have tried to destroy my family . cassie : yeah , we have tattoos , john , and so do you , but you not only have the mark of the phoenix , you are connected to tony by blood . so does that mean that you 're dangerous and your family should be protected from you ? john : you know , i do n't care what you think about me , but the fact is , marlena 's tried to help you . now , whether you are capable of believing it or not , she is still trying to do what is best for you . cassie : no , you are wrong . she is worse than you . at least you never pretended like we were good or worth saving , but marlena -- she pretended like she cared about us and she believed in us , but we meant nothing to her . john : that 's not true . cassie : all she cares about is the prestige of this stupid hospital and her precious little family . well , she is no saint , and neither is your little daughter , because they are so cruel and so selfish , and more so than any dimera could ever be . i hate marlena for lying to me , and i will always hate her . i will never forgive h for this . john : hey , hold on . shawn - d : you 're so beautiful . i want you so much . belle : make love to me , shawn . shawn - d : we ca n't -- not now . belle : i know that you want , , so why are you pushing me away ? colin : you 're not going to shoot me . mommy and daddy would n't approve . ha ha ha .

chloe : how about a picnic by the river ? brady : you know what ? it might be a little bit too chilly for that , but i 'll work on it . how about that ? chloe : so , when are we going to do all these things ? brady : just as soon as nurse lane releases me . look , chloe , you and i are going to celebrate every single day with each otr , r , starting now until the day you go into the hospital . and you are going to be filled with so many happy memories to keep you company -- more than you can count . you 'll feel like i 'm right there beside you . and when you 're completely cured , we 're going to do it all over again . i 'll even throw in a dinner and some dancing or maybe a trip out to the lake in my jeep , with the top down . ha ha ha . chloe : how about we start now ?

you know what i 'm in the mood for ? some spins around the apartment with you in my arms . chloe : hey , uh , do n't you think that we should ease into it slowly ? brady : not too slowly . john : hey . you okay ? marlena : i 've done a terrible thing . i convinced rex and cassie they could trust me , and now they feel that i 've betrayed them . john : no , no , no , no , no . all you 're doing is trying to protect them . marlena : there 's no way they can understand that . john : this is n't going to take much longer to wait . maybe just a couple weeks . then we 'll know the whole truth about who their parents are . can you hold out that long ? marlena : that may be too long . what if it turns out that i 'm their mother and that i have lost their trust ? john , they were devastated , even rex . he did n't show it , not like cassie does . oh , that poor girl . all i want to do is comfort her , and she would n't even let me come near her . she 's so -- she 's so angry . she 's so hurt . how can i convince them that i 'm not against them ?

marlena : it has to do with tony , mm - hmm . cassie : because he could be our father . marlena : discovering that you and tony share a rare blood marker was one of the reasons that i wanted to talk to you today , yes . rex : what else ? marlena : there is still the question that tony raised -- the question of my being a mother to you . something has happened that -- that changes everything ... changes my relationship with you . ththat 's why i wanted to talk to you today . belle : why are you shutting me out of your life if that 's not what you want ? shawn - d : to protect you . belle : shawn , if you say that to me one more time -- shawn - d : i 'm not the same person , okay ? belle : as what , as you were before colin was killed ? i know that that is what this is about -- the night of victor and nicole 's wedding -- because that 's when you started pulling away from me . shawn - d : you just have to stay away from me , okay ?

i mean , so that i would be rcrced to give up my baby for adoption . i mean , maybe there was some kind of payoff . craig : okay , look , nancy , you 're shaking , and this is exactly why i do n't want to talk about this now , okay ? nancy : craig , craig , we should call my father . craig : no . nancy : craig , he was chief of staff at the hospital when chloe was born . when he finds out about the ultrasound , he 'll be just as upset as we are . craig : nancy , i do n't call anybody , especially your dad . do you understand me ? nancy : you act like you do n't want to know . craig : no , no . sweetheart , honey , of course i want to know . i want to know what happened in that hospital 19 years ago just as much as you , and -- look , the things that we should be focusing on right now , the things that we should really care about , are curing chloe and making sure that you and this baby are safe , and once that -- once that 's happened , honey , i promise you we will -- we 'll dig in the past , okay ? okay ? chloe : i 'm going to be back in the hospital soon , in isolation . brady : you think that 's going to stop me from seeing you ? chloe , i 'm going to be right outside your room , making faces at you through the window , writing love letters on the glass , and whispering to you over the phone -- until they censor my calls , of course . chloe : ha ha . my sister 's going to be born in the spring . you know , that 's my favorite time of year -- everything comes back to life again . brady : well , i think spring is going to come a little early for you this year . chloe : what do you mean ? brady : i 've been making plans . chloe : for what ? brady : come on . i 'll show you . brady : look down there . you see it ? well , it 's -- it 's covered with snow right now , but underneath the snow , spring is happening . tulips , daffodils , and those funny little stubby blue things . what are those called ? chloe : grape hyacinth . brady : yes . and some other things that i picked up from the nursery . i planted them last fall when you were in chemo . welcome to chloe 's garden . chloe : thank you . thank you for believing and loving me . brady : by the time you 're back in the hospital , chloe , there 's going to be a blanket of flowers down there . i 'm going to have to bring them to you by the carload . belle : if i 'm going to paris , i have to let them know right away . shawn - d : then i guess you better do that . belle : that 's it ? shawn - d : no . no , there is so much more . every time i look at you ... i think about the lastlast dance and ... how you looked and felt in my arms ... and how long it took me to get up the nerve to kiss you for the first time . shawn - d : i 'm going to miss you so much . belle : please do n't let me go . cassie : did you change your mind ? you want to be our mother now ? marlena : i want us to stay close . this friendship is very important to me . rex : but ... marlena : you know , last time we talked , i did n't handle things very well , and cassie got upset . rex : we just feel like we 're getting mixed messages from you , you know ? we do n't know whether we should go or to stay . cassie : which is it ? marlena : you know what ? i can see how it very confusing . i 'm sorry . i hope i can make you understand this . you see , as a therapist , it 's important for me to have some distance from my patients so that i can be objective and i can be helpful , and if i do n't do that , people i care about like you can get hurt , like when tony suggested that i -- that i be like a mother to you , it made me realize that i have very deep feelings for both of you , and -- and that would mean that i would not be a very effective therapist for you . rex : so what are you saying ? cassie : she 's kissing us off . marlena : cassie , no . no . cassie : the hell you 're not . why are you doing this to us ? do n't you care at all ? marlena : i care more than you could possibly know . this is hard for me , too . cassie : do n't touch me . just stop pretending . we 're nothing but lab rats to you . we 're specimens that you use and toss through and throw away when you 're done . marlena : no . no , that 's not so . cassie : i hate you . i hate you , and i never want to see you again . rex : cassie , wait . cassie : we do n't belong here , rex . we never did . rex : you have n't even heard her out . cassie : you trust her . you are a fool . fine , just stay here . i do n't care . just leave me alone . marlena : rex , let her go . let her go . rex : she 's myisister . i 'm all that she has now . do you know what you 've done ?

rex : she keeps secrets from me . she 's never done that . and she 's going after things not thinking of the effect it 'll have on other people . marlena : well , i 'll see if i can help , i promise . rex : you know , i think it 'd be better if you just stay away . i think it 'd be even easier if we do n't see you at all .

i mean , he 's your family too . i do n't want you to feel like you 're having to take sides . john : you are my son . i will always be on your side . eli : all right , i 'll need a description of the child , a recent photograph -- eve : detective , that wo n't be necessary . brady : excuse me , tate was taken from the nursery by this woman , eve donovan . eve : kiriakis . eli : and yet , you 're here . do you know where the child is ? eve : well , you know what ? as a matter of fact , i do . maggie : tate just ate three waffles and a half a container of blueberries . victor : and here we go . eli : tate ? the child that 's been kidnapped ? eve : mm - hmm . maggie : kidnapped ? eli : you were ready to file a false report ? brady : no , there 's nothing false about it . she took my son out of this house without my permission . i want her arrested . eve : you know what , detective ? why do n't we look inside this diaper bag here , right , and check it ? see if an amulet has been planted , should we -- victor : this is nonsense . there 's nothing to see here , officer . eli : with all due respect , mr . kiriakis , i 'll be the judge of that -- and it 's detective . victor : i stand corrected . please feel free to carry on with the rest of your day . detective . eli : you accused her of murder , and now you 're accusing her of kidnapping . brady : i overreacted , all right ? i apologize for that , i do . listen , there 's got to be other things you want to do with your day , so can i show you out , detective ? eli : you know , last time i was here these gentlemen were trying to kick you out and yet you still seem to be living here . eve : well , brady and his grandfather have suddenly decided , actually , that they were gon na treat me very , very nicely . is n't that right , boys ? victor : it 's a big house . too much trouble to fight her when it 's just as easy to avoid her -- most of the time . brady : again , i 'm sorry that you came on a false alarm . eli : well , i 'm relieved that your son is all right . brady : thank you . eli : but , actually , i was already on my way over here when i received the call -- for another reason . i 'm here to get your statement about your uncle deimos 's murder . brady : i 'd be happy to give you a statement about deimos ' death , but i do n't see how i can be of help . eli : you pointed us in the direction of mrs . kiriakis . you accused her of his murder , and you led us to the amulet that was found in her bag . eve : that 's right . the police seemed to think that whoever murdered deimos must have taken the amulet , and whoever has possession of it must be the murderer . is n't that right , detective ? eli : mrs. kiriakis has a rock - solid alibi , which suggests that the amulet was planted in her bag as she claims . victor : i do n't appreciate you singling out my grandson . a lot of people live in this house . to say nothing of staff , gardeners , workers who have access . eli : i doubt any of them have both motive to both eliminate deimos and frame his wife for the crime . eve : i know , right ? eli : unless you have a plausible explanation on how that amulet was found in her bag , you 're the main suspect in deimos kiriakis ' murder . belle : just forget i said anything . will : no , forgetting is what got me here in the first place . everyone is so eager for me to remember my past . well , this is your shot . what are you -- what did i do ? belle : it 's really not my place to tell you . will : okay , come on . marlena : anything exciting happen while i was gone ? will : yes , actually . marlena : oh . will : belle was telling me that in my past i made a huge mistake . belle : um , i was out of line . will : oh , come on . do n't shut down now . marlena : look , maybe we should let this go till another time . you 're , you know , you 've been overloaded , have n't you ? will : you think ? i mean , i have a mother who has been lying to me about who i was for the last two years , but now i have another crazy mother who will probably lie to me for the rest of my life . i also have a husband and a daughter that i do n't remember a single thing about , so whatever you are going to say , i think i can handle it at this point . so go for it . belle : you cheated on your husband . will : what ? i thought that -- i thought we were in love . why would i -- why would i cheat on him ? marlena : honey , it 's complicated . will : it does n't sound complicated . i was married , and i slept with another guy -- i 'm assuming it was a guy , right ? belle : yes , it was . will : okay . so who did i cheat on sonny with , not that i know him ? marlena : you do know him . it 's john 's son , paul . john : so what are you waiting for ? call sonny , right now . paul : he and will could already be back together . john : i know for a fact they have n't seen each other . marlena wanted to help will regain his memory one step at a time , slowly reacquaint himself with his old life -- but sami kind of blew that all to hell . paul : what did she do ? john : oh , she busted ben weston out of the loony bin so he could strangle will all over again . hope : thank you . sami : you say it 's about rafe ? hope : yeah , i 've been looking for him all morning , and i ca n't find him . i thought -- i thought maybe you could help . sami : i just woke up . why would you think i know where rafe is ? hope : well , because you and rafe have been spending a lot of time together since you got back . i thought maybe you 'd been in touch with him . sami : did you try calling him ? hope : voicemail . sami : well , maybe he 's at work . oh , wait -- he works for you , so you should know where he is . hope : but i 'm not his boss anymore ; i was fired . i guess you do n't know . rafe 's the new commissioner . sami : hope , that 's terrible . i 'm - i 'm so sorry . uh , look , i can see that you have a lot that you have to deal with , but so do i , so -- hope : sami , please . sami , please just give me a second , okay ? rafe and i had a really big fight last night , and i have n't heard from him since . it started out about my job , then it turned into something very ugly and very wrong , and i need to find him . i need to talk to him right away , so if you have any idea where he might be , anywhere , i just -- please , tell me . copd makes it hard to breathe . sami : so i have n't heard from rafe . i mean , if i had i would tell you . have you tried gabi ? hope : yeah , i have . she has n't heard from him either , and he did n't crash at the station last night . i even checked here to see if he got a room . i 'm really starting to worry about him . i hope he 's okay . do you think he 's okay ? sami : yeah , no , i 'm sure he 's gon na turn up when you least expect it . hope : yeah , well , sorry to have bothered you . thanks . bye , honey . sami : no problem . you know , everybody fights , and , hope , i 'm sure it 's not as bad as you think . hope : he broke off our engagement . sami : what ? i 'm so sorry . but you 're trying to find him , right ? so does that mean you want to make up with him ? hope : well , i said some things that -- well , i think there was just a lot of miscommunication and ... i 'm sorry to take up your time . it just- it probably is too late anyway . sami : no . it just comes down to one thing : do you love him ? hope : like crazy . sami : then it 's not too late . you can make things right . hope : i do n't think so . i 'm -- he 's refusing my calls , so that probably means that he , well , he does n't want to talk to me . sami : that is the furthest thing from the truth . hope : how can you be so sure about that ? paul : is will all right ? john : physically , yeah , but emotionally , no . he 's pretty trashed . paul : what the hell was sami thinking ? john : well , she was under the impression if she could recreate the traumatic event , that will would regain his memory . paul : by having ben strangle him . john : yeah , yeah . paul : that 's insane . john : yeah , yeah , it 's a little over the top , even for sami . paul : how did she even break him out of the asylum ? john : well , once sami gets something in her head , there 's no stopping her . it 's left up to us to pick up the pieces . paul : tell me ben 's back where he belongs . john : yeah , yeah , yeah , yeah . no one 's the wiser . paul : oh , my god . will must be a mess . john : well , you know , he 's been struggling ever since he got back to salem , and all sami did was just push him closer to the edge . will : i slept with paul ? the same guy who 's now engaged to my husband ? marlena : there were extenuating circumstances . will : like -- like i 'm an ass ? like i 'm the kind of person who cheats on someone who loves me ? marlena : no , no , no , no , honey . you just do n't understand what happened . will : to hell with this . to hell with will horton . i mean , i may live with a fake mom and a freaking elvis impersonator , but at least i knew who i was . belle : will , please , do n't go . i 'm sorry . will : you know what ? i 'm happy that you told me because sonny said that we had this perfect marriage , and we had this amazing love . marlena : you did . will : until i cheated on him ? marlena : honey , we 'll talk about all this . will : you know , i got to go . marlena : let -- let -- let me drive you , okay ? will : i 'll walk , thanks . marlena : why did you tell him that he cheated on sonny ? brady : i 'm the main suspect in deimos 's murder ? that 's ridiculous . you have no evidence whatsoever . eli : there is a very good chance that whoever planted that amulet to cast suspicion on mrs . kiriakis , is , in fact , the murderer . brady : it was n't me . eve : you know , maybe you should take him downtown for questioning . coffee 's lousy , and they have no sense of humor . eli : mrs. kiriakis , please . it would be easier for all of us if you 'd just cooperate . brady : you can give me a lie detector test , detective . i did n't do it . eli : then , who did ? victor : oh , for god 's sake . he did n't kill deimos . i know that for a fact . sami : hope , i know rafe better than a lot of people , and i know he loves you , and i have seen you with him and , hope , you -- you are so happy with him , and i know you make him happy too , so you should go find him . talk to him . make him listen . i know he wants that . hope : thank you . i 'll do that . sami : good , all right , maybe try the pub or the gym . he might be taking it out on a weight machine as we speak . hope : thank you so much . i love you , bye . sami : i love you too . rafe : okay , that was -- sami : brilliant ? i know . being a good liar can be useful . rafe : yeah , when you use your powers for good . sami : i always use my powers for good . rafe : hmm . sami : it 's just that other people do n't always see it that way . rafe : yeah , well , thank you for what you said . sami : i was listening . she wants you . rafe : well . sami : bad . so you should go find her . rafe : thank you , thank you . sami : i do n't like seeing you miserable , rafe . you do n't deserve that . well , since i do n't have a chance at love anymore , you got to go find hope , make this right and be happy -- for both of us . okay ? rafe : okay . sami : call her . rafe : that 's -- yeah . belle : will called sami a monster , and i just wanted him to understand that nobody 's perfect . marlena : then say that . do n't tell him that he cheated on his husband . belle : he 's gon na find out eventually . marlena : you know what ? there are times and ways for will to find things out . belle : will is walking around here thinking that he and sonny were madly in love , when they were tragically parted , and that 's just not even true , and that 's not fair to sonny . that 's not fair to will . and it 's definitely not fair to paul either . victor : brady 's alibi is just as ironclad as eve 's , and the police already know about it . you 'd know that if you checked . eli : enlighten me . victor : brady was home all night , recuperating from heart surgery . eve : hm , do you have a time stamped photo for proof , victor ? victor : brady has witnesses . i 'm one of them . i was home with him all night . eve : come on . they are in cahoots . why do n't you just take them both downtown for questioning ? eli : as eager as you are to help solve this case , i doubt that an octogenarian and a heart patient could sneak into a party , stab deimos , and get out unseen . victor : exactly . ask your aunt ; she knows we were here all night . maggie would n't lie . maggie : that 's true . eve : they hired someone . the kiriakises never do their own dirty work . i mean , you should know that by now . the amulet got in this house somehow , and if they did n't kill deimos -- well , they certainly know someone who did . victor : obviously , my brother 's widow is hysterical . the grief and all . sorry we could n't have been more help . eli : i want a list of everyone who lives in and has access to this house . maggie : we 'll be happy to put that together . eli : i 'll be in touch . victor : what in god 's name is wrong with you ? eve : just trying to see justice served . victor : justice ? if there were any justice , you 'd be out on your ass . eve : oh , you know what ? you started this , you and brady . and you , you 're living with a couple of murderers . brady : well , that was a nightmare . victor : one of your own making . first you accuse her of murder , then kidnapping ? would you please stop being stupid ? maggie : what are n't you telling me ? now , i know neither of you had anything to do with deimos 's death , but you know something , do n't you ? fine , i 'll go check on tate . brady : i 've made a mess , have n't i ? victor : you certainly have . brady : well , at least our list of current residents does n't include nicole . i mean , out of town , out of mind , right ? she 's not gon na be on any list of suspects . victor : if the noose gets any tighter , that may have to change . [ knock on door ] sami : you . belle : that 's how you greet me ? sami : i thought you were gon na be will . belle : oh , well , i 'm sorry to disappoint . sami : what are you doing back in town ? belle : where else would i be ? will 's alive . i had to come and see him for myself . i 'm just so happy for you ! sami : wait a second . belle : what ? sami : do n't even give me this , like , fake act like you care routine after what you did to me .

| brady was upset when he thought tate was kidnapped . victor and maggie tried to calm him down . paul wanted to keep busy with his cases so john was concerned . john wondered why paul wanted to take on so many cases . paul wanted to take his mind off of sonny and will . rafe had a dream about hope and realized that he woke up next to sami . he apologized for calling her hope . hope tried to call rafe , but he declined her call . marlena introduced will to belle . belle thought she could get him to get his memory back . he noticed that she was n't like sami . belle thought sami was loyal . hope showed up at sami 's room just as she told rafe not to tell hope what happened between them . eve was the one who had tate . brady was upset with eve for taking tate without telling him . eli showed up at the mansion and brady wanted eve arrested for kidnapping . hope asked sami to open the door so they could talk about rafe . rafe wanted to get it over with and tell hope the truth . sami did n't want to do it . sami went to the door . will told belle what sami did to him . belle thought it was crazy but reminded him that he made a mistake too . paul and john continued to talk about sonny . eli tried to question eve about tate 's kidnapping until he found out that tate was home . brady apologized for the false alarm , but eli wanted to see him anyway . eli wanted to get brady 's statement regarding deimos ' murder . | <s>[INST] maggie : here . victor : ah . maggie : good morning . brady : hi , have you seen tate ?

brady : henderson does n't know where he is . someone took my son ! where is he ? paul : there 's a kidnapping . john : yeah . john : cheating wife . cheating husband . another cheating husband . well , i 'd say kidnapping 's at the top of the list , unless we go with the cheaters , which i would know something about . john : whoa , whoa , whoa , slow down , kid . slow down , slow down . paul : no , i 'm ready to go . i mean , i just got to hop in the shower , and i 'm out the door . john : hey , hey , what 's going on with you anyway ?

[ laughter ] will : that sounds great . marlena : yeah , why do n't you two get reacquainted ? i 've got to check in with john . excuse me . belle : i did n't think you liked french toast . will : oh , it 's a new thing -- apparently . belle : mmm , well , at least you 're not hurling it at me . will : what ? belle : oh , well , you were -- what , four , i think , and i was babysitting you , and i wanted you to clean your plate , so , naturally , you tossed all of your french toast right at me , and then you laughed . will : are you serious ? belle : yes . will : i 'm sorry . i was a brat . belle : yes , you were , but you were also hopped up on maple syrup , so . will : yeah . i got to say , you -- you , um -- you 're very nice . belle : you 're surprised . will : no , well , just you 're -- you 're nothing like sami . belle : yeah , well , sami can take a little getting used to , but , you two -- you were really close . will : you know , i ca n't even begin to wrap my head around how that was possible . belle : oh , well , i know my sister can be controlling , and we 've certainly had our fair share of disagreements , but there 's nobody that 's more loyal than sami brady , and she loves you so much , will . will : yeah , you know , she loves me so much that she almost got me killed yesterday . sami : okay , so step one in getting the woman you love to take you back is that you have to answer the phone when she calls you . why did you do that ? rafe : i do n't know , because there 's a naked woman sitting next to me who happens to be my ex - wife ? sami : you are making it sound way worse than it is . we 're ... just friends , right ? this was just about comfort . rafe : yeah , i 'm pretty sure she would n't see it that way . sami : of course , she would n't see it that way -- rafe : yeah . sami : because she 's never going to find out . please tell me you 're not planning some sort of confession . rafe : look , my relationship with hope is based on truth , trust , and honesty . sami : rafe , seriously , if you tell hope about -- about this , are you kidding me ? your chances of getting her back go up in flames . rafe : i do n't feel comfortable lying to her . sami : oh , my god ! would you stop being so ... you ? rafe , promise me you 're not -- [ knock on door ] hope : sami ? sami , are you in there ? sami : oh , my god . somehow we always leave sami : oh , my god . what is she doing here ? rafe : i do n't know . sami : shh ! rafe : well , might as well let her in and get it over with . sami : what are you talking about ? are you insane ? she 'll kill me , and then she 'll kill you .

paul : i 've done enough damage to will and sonny . there 's no way that i 'm gon na interfere with their relationship . john : what about your relationship ? paul : i meant every word of the vows that i said to sonny . nothing has changed for me , but everything has changed for him . john : well , like i said before , sonny still loves you . paul : well , he says he does , but our relationship is on hold until will gets his memory back , and there 's nothing i can do except wait . john : i do n't know about that . you can fight . you and sonny are engaged . you planned a future together . you have every right in the world to fight for that , son . paul : a life with sonny 's all i want . john : then , damn it , stand up for yourself and your relationship . paul : what about will ? i mean , he 's your family too . i do n't want you to feel like you 're having to take sides . john : you are my son . i will always be on your side . eli : all right , i 'll need a description of the child , a recent photograph -- eve : detective , that wo n't be necessary . brady : excuse me , tate was taken from the nursery by this woman , eve donovan . eve : kiriakis . eli : and yet , you 're here . do you know where the child is ? eve : well , you know what ? as a matter of fact , i do . maggie : tate just ate three waffles and a half a container of blueberries . victor : and here we go . eli : tate ? the child that 's been kidnapped ? eve : mm - hmm . maggie : kidnapped ? eli : you were ready to file a false report ? brady : no , there 's nothing false about it . she took my son out of this house without my permission . i want her arrested . eve : you know what , detective ? why do n't we look inside this diaper bag here , right , and check it ? see if an amulet has been planted , should we -- victor : this is nonsense . there 's nothing to see here , officer . eli : with all due respect , mr . kiriakis , i 'll be the judge of that -- and it 's detective . victor : i stand corrected . please feel free to carry on with the rest of your day . detective . eli : you accused her of murder , and now you 're accusing her of kidnapping . brady : i overreacted , all right ? i apologize for that , i do . listen , there 's got to be other things you want to do with your day , so can i show you out , detective ? eli : you know , last time i was here these gentlemen were trying to kick you out and yet you still seem to be living here . eve : well , brady and his grandfather have suddenly decided , actually , that they were gon na treat me very , very nicely . is n't that right , boys ? victor : it 's a big house . too much trouble to fight her when it 's just as easy to avoid her -- most of the time . brady : again , i 'm sorry that you came on a false alarm . eli : well , i 'm relieved that your son is all right . brady : thank you . eli : but , actually , i was already on my way over here when i received the call -- for another reason . i 'm here to get your statement about your uncle deimos 's murder . brady : i 'd be happy to give you a statement about deimos ' death , but i do n't see how i can be of help . eli : you pointed us in the direction of mrs . kiriakis . you accused her of his murder , and you led us to the amulet that was found in her bag . eve : that 's right . the police seemed to think that whoever murdered deimos must have taken the amulet , and whoever has possession of it must be the murderer . is n't that right , detective ? eli : mrs. kiriakis has a rock - solid alibi , which suggests that the amulet was planted in her bag as she claims . victor : i do n't appreciate you singling out my grandson . a lot of people live in this house . to say nothing of staff , gardeners , workers who have access . eli : i doubt any of them have both motive to both eliminate deimos and frame his wife for the crime . eve : i know , right ? eli : unless you have a plausible explanation on how that amulet was found in her bag , you 're the main suspect in deimos kiriakis ' murder . belle : just forget i said anything . will : no , forgetting is what got me here in the first place . everyone is so eager for me to remember my past . well , this is your shot . what are you -- what did i do ? belle : it 's really not my place to tell you . will : okay , come on . marlena : anything exciting happen while i was gone ? will : yes , actually . marlena : oh . will : belle was telling me that in my past i made a huge mistake . belle : um , i was out of line . will : oh , come on . do n't shut down now . marlena : look , maybe we should let this go till another time . you 're , you know , you 've been overloaded , have n't you ? will : you think ? i mean , i have a mother who has been lying to me about who i was for the last two years , but now i have another crazy mother who will probably lie to me for the rest of my life . i also have a husband and a daughter that i do n't remember a single thing about , so whatever you are going to say , i think i can handle it at this point . so go for it . belle : you cheated on your husband . will : what ? i thought that -- i thought we were in love . why would i -- why would i cheat on him ? marlena : honey , it 's complicated . will : it does n't sound complicated . i was married , and i slept with another guy -- i 'm assuming it was a guy , right ? belle : yes , it was . will : okay . so who did i cheat on sonny with , not that i know him ? marlena : you do know him . it 's john 's son , paul . john : so what are you waiting for ? call sonny , right now . paul : he and will could already be back together . john : i know for a fact they have n't seen each other . marlena wanted to help will regain his memory one step at a time , slowly reacquaint himself with his old life -- but sami kind of blew that all to hell . paul : what did she do ? john : oh , she busted ben weston out of the loony bin so he could strangle will all over again . hope : thank you . sami : you say it 's about rafe ? hope : yeah , i 've been looking for him all morning , and i ca n't find him . i thought -- i thought maybe you could help . sami : i just woke up . why would you think i know where rafe is ? hope : well , because you and rafe have been spending a lot of time together since you got back . i thought maybe you 'd been in touch with him . sami : did you try calling him ? hope : voicemail . sami : well , maybe he 's at work . oh , wait -- he works for you , so you should know where he is . hope : but i 'm not his boss anymore ; i was fired . i guess you do n't know . rafe 's the new commissioner . sami : hope , that 's terrible . i 'm - i 'm so sorry . uh , look , i can see that you have a lot that you have to deal with , but so do i , so -- hope : sami , please . sami , please just give me a second , okay ? rafe and i had a really big fight last night , and i have n't heard from him since . it started out about my job , then it turned into something very ugly and very wrong , and i need to find him . i need to talk to him right away , so if you have any idea where he might be , anywhere , i just -- please , tell me . copd makes it hard to breathe . sami : so i have n't heard from rafe . i mean , if i had i would tell you . have you tried gabi ? hope : yeah , i have . she has n't heard from him either , and he did n't crash at the station last night . i even checked here to see if he got a room . i 'm really starting to worry about him . i hope he 's okay . do you think he 's okay ? sami : yeah , no , i 'm sure he 's gon na turn up when you least expect it . hope : yeah , well , sorry to have bothered you . thanks . bye , honey . sami : no problem . you know , everybody fights , and , hope , i 'm sure it 's not as bad as you think . hope : he broke off our engagement . sami : what ? i 'm so sorry . but you 're trying to find him , right ? so does that mean you want to make up with him ? hope : well , i said some things that -- well , i think there was just a lot of miscommunication and ... i 'm sorry to take up your time . it just- it probably is too late anyway . sami : no . it just comes down to one thing : do you love him ? hope : like crazy . sami : then it 's not too late . you can make things right . hope : i do n't think so . i 'm -- he 's refusing my calls , so that probably means that he , well , he does n't want to talk to me . sami : that is the furthest thing from the truth . hope : how can you be so sure about that ? paul : is will all right ? john : physically , yeah , but emotionally , no . he 's pretty trashed . paul : what the hell was sami thinking ? john : well , she was under the impression if she could recreate the traumatic event , that will would regain his memory . paul : by having ben strangle him . john : yeah , yeah . paul : that 's insane . john : yeah , yeah , it 's a little over the top , even for sami . paul : how did she even break him out of the asylum ? john : well , once sami gets something in her head , there 's no stopping her . it 's left up to us to pick up the pieces . paul : tell me ben 's back where he belongs . john : yeah , yeah , yeah , yeah . no one 's the wiser . paul : oh , my god . will must be a mess . john : well , you know , he 's been struggling ever since he got back to salem , and all sami did was just push him closer to the edge . will : i slept with paul ? the same guy who 's now engaged to my husband ? marlena : there were extenuating circumstances . will : like -- like i 'm an ass ? like i 'm the kind of person who cheats on someone who loves me ? marlena : no , no , no , no , honey . you just do n't understand what happened . will : to hell with this . to hell with will horton . i mean , i may live with a fake mom and a freaking elvis impersonator , but at least i knew who i was . belle : will , please , do n't go . i 'm sorry . will : you know what ? i 'm happy that you told me because sonny said that we had this perfect marriage , and we had this amazing love . marlena : you did . will : until i cheated on him ? marlena : honey , we 'll talk about all this . will : you know , i got to go . marlena : let -- let -- let me drive you , okay ? will : i 'll walk , thanks . marlena : why did you tell him that he cheated on sonny ? brady : i 'm the main suspect in deimos 's murder ? that 's ridiculous . you have no evidence whatsoever . eli : there is a very good chance that whoever planted that amulet to cast suspicion on mrs . kiriakis , is , in fact , the murderer . brady : it was n't me . eve : you know , maybe you should take him downtown for questioning . coffee 's lousy , and they have no sense of humor . eli : mrs. kiriakis , please . it would be easier for all of us if you 'd just cooperate . brady : you can give me a lie detector test , detective . i did n't do it . eli : then , who did ? victor : oh , for god 's sake . he did n't kill deimos . i know that for a fact . sami : hope , i know rafe better than a lot of people , and i know he loves you , and i have seen you with him and , hope , you -- you are so happy with him , and i know you make him happy too , so you should go find him . talk to him . make him listen . i know he wants that . hope : thank you . i 'll do that . sami : good , all right , maybe try the pub or the gym . he might be taking it out on a weight machine as we speak . hope : thank you so much . i love you , bye . sami : i love you too . rafe : okay , that was -- sami : brilliant ? i know . being a good liar can be useful . rafe : yeah , when you use your powers for good . sami : i always use my powers for good . rafe : hmm . sami : it 's just that other people do n't always see it that way . rafe : yeah , well , thank you for what you said . sami : i was listening . she wants you . rafe : well . sami : bad . so you should go find her . rafe : thank you , thank you . sami : i do n't like seeing you miserable , rafe . you do n't deserve that . well , since i do n't have a chance at love anymore , you got to go find hope , make this right and be happy -- for both of us . okay ? rafe : okay . sami : call her . rafe : that 's -- yeah . belle : will called sami a monster , and i just wanted him to understand that nobody 's perfect . marlena : then say that . do n't tell him that he cheated on his husband . belle : he 's gon na find out eventually . marlena : you know what ? there are times and ways for will to find things out . belle : will is walking around here thinking that he and sonny were madly in love , when they were tragically parted , and that 's just not even true , and that 's not fair to sonny . that 's not fair to will . and it 's definitely not fair to paul either . victor : brady 's alibi is just as ironclad as eve 's , and the police already know about it . you 'd know that if you checked . eli : enlighten me . victor : brady was home all night , recuperating from heart surgery . eve : hm , do you have a time stamped photo for proof , victor ? victor : brady has witnesses . i 'm one of them . i was home with him all night . eve : come on . they are in cahoots . why do n't you just take them both downtown for questioning ? eli : as eager as you are to help solve this case , i doubt that an octogenarian and a heart patient could sneak into a party , stab deimos , and get out unseen . victor : exactly . ask your aunt ; she knows we were here all night . maggie would n't lie . maggie : that 's true . eve : they hired someone . the kiriakises never do their own dirty work . i mean , you should know that by now . the amulet got in this house somehow , and if they did n't kill deimos -- well , they certainly know someone who did . victor : obviously , my brother 's widow is hysterical . the grief and all . sorry we could n't have been more help . eli : i want a list of everyone who lives in and has access to this house . maggie : we 'll be happy to put that together . eli : i 'll be in touch . victor : what in god 's name is wrong with you ?

[ scene_break ] di : too much pain . all that anger and pressure -- i can see dixie staying away . i mean , she definitely would have after she saw the looks on their faces . david : who knows what dixie would have done ? she 's gone . and you 're free to make her whatever you need her to be . di : i do n't think it 's going to be that easy . even if j.r. accepts me as his mother , i 'm not sure he 'll forgive me . tad , either . david : oh , who cares what tad thinks ? in fact , it 's probably better if he does n't forgive you . he 's played his part . he 's convinced the masses that you 're dixie . so , hopefully he does back off , way off . things will go a hell of a lot smoother without him around . di : you must be one empty piece of nothing not to care about the pain you 're dredging up for these people . david : you 're not developing a conscience now , are you ? i mean it , di . i want a commitment from you right now that you 're not getting all soft and bailing out on me . we have a deal . di : i did n't say i was ditching the plan . i just had a rough day . and i ca n't vent to my friends or loved ones , so all i 've got is you , god help me . david : well , give it some time . you can have more friends and family than you know what to do with . dixie 's friends and family . and if that 's not enough , you 'll have wads of cash to mend that bleeding heart .

[ scene_break ] maria : so i am so ready to move on right now , and you know what ? believe it or not , so is maddie . tad : well , one thing 's for sure . if sammie does n't want to be in california , nothing 's going to keep him there . and it might be better if he stayed here in pine valley rather than worrying about how the hell he was going to get back here in one piece . maria : yeah , but i ca n't -- i ca n't ask you to do this . tad : oh , sure you can . maria : especially now . tad : no , no , come on . it 's not like i 'm going to be doing it solo . are you kidding ? you tell the clan you got a new martin to deal with -- mom and dad will be onboard , and jamie . even brooke , if that 's ok with you . maria : no , you know what ? it 's great because he loves her and he trusts her , and she 's -- truly , she 's been the one constant in his life , and he really -- he really could use that right now . tad : good for you . ok . so why do n't you let us take him into our family for a while ? maria : you 're kind of mr. amazing , are n't you ? you are . and it 's just really , truly just for the summer -- ok , because that 's all i can take away from him -- and then we 'll re - evaluate . does that sound good ? tad : better than good . got yourself a deal . maria : wow . so it 's settled . tad : not quite . the real question here is , are you going to be ok without him ? maria : no . but all i have ever really wanted for my kids is -- is just that they feel safe and that they feel loved . and i know that they 're going to have that here with you . they 're going to have it with you and with your family and with brooke . and you 've done a phenomenal job with jamie , so i have -- i have complete faith in you . tad : you should n't . you do good work . he 's going to be a fine young man , just like jamie . but let 's not forget , i got one major ding on my track record . but i 'll make you this promise -- i 'll do my damnedest to do for sam what i obviously could n't do for j.r .

brooke : how was your father involved ? i want the truth , and i want it now . no more messing with my daughter 's life . liam : she 's ours , hope . this is not a dream . this is our little girl . hope : i know , and i 'm so thankful , but -- but i still do n't understand . liam : i 'm gon na tell you everything , i promise . but maybe , right now , we just -- we just wait . we just enjoy this , let it sink in . hope : but ... no , i -- i need to know . because i -- i do n't understand how it happened . i was in the hospital . i held her , she was n't breathing . the doctor told me that she did n't make it . he told me that there was nothing else that he could do . liam : dr. buckingham lied . he 's responsible for all of this . this was me six years ago ... brooke : it 's sick , what your father did . ridge : used it for gambling debt ? zoe : i told you , my life was in danger . brooke : there is no excuse . and there 's no excuse for the two of you keeping that secret . how long have you known ? flo : i did n't know who the birth mother was . all he told me is that her name was hope . and i did n't even know who hope and beth were until after the adoption . i know that i should have come forward and told her the truth when i found out everything , and i tried to . i tried to many times . shauna : she -- she did . brooke : but protecting yourself was more important than giving hope 's baby back ! what about you , zoe ? what about you , shauna ? was n't anybody going to tell my daughter the truth ? flo : i am so sorry , brooke . i wanted to tell her , and so did she . we both did . i - it 's just that things started to get out of hand . flo : but it 's over now . hope is finally gon na know the truth , and she 's gon na have her baby back . ridge : how is it over ? what 's steffy ? it 's gon na break her heart . brooke : taylor was involved in this adoption . did she really know what was going on ? flo : no , no , no , no . she -- she did n't know any of this . she believed that i was the birth mother . brooke : yeah , but how could she not know ? that baby came out of nowhere . flo : she trusted reese . just like i did . he 's a well - respected doctor . no one would have thought he 'd do something like this . zoe : he and taylor knew each other through some medical connections , and she mentioned that steffy was looking to adopt a sister for kelly . brooke : [ scoffs ] so he sold my granddaughter . ridge : that 's why taylor had a bag of cash . so your daddy can protect you and throw our daughters under the bus . brooke : one thing just does n't add up . they were in the clinic , and reese gave liam and hope a dead baby . my daughter was holding that baby in her arms . so whose baby was that ? what did your father do ? how did he convince them that their baby was dead ? hope : i ca n't believe i get to do this . last time i held her , i thought i was saying goodbye , i -- i was never gon na see her again . liam : well , that 's because dr . buckingham told both of us she was gone . and we had no reason not to believe him . how would we know ? hope : i need you to tell me , liam . i need you to tell me what he did . liam : it 's a long , awful story , honestly , but ... flo told me everything . hope : flo . liam : i knew something was wrong when i overheard flo and thomas arguing . after your wedding , they were talking about a secret that you could n't find out about , and so i went to wyatt and i asked him to talk to flo , see if he could , like , open her up a little bit , and she slipped up . she said that she never had a baby . so i called the hospital named on the birth certificate . the doctor had never even heard of flo fulton . she was never a patient at any time . hope : so she was in on this . liam : yes , she was in on it , but it was dr . buckingham who put it all in motion . he knew flo from vegas , and he needed someone to pose as the mother of a newborn baby . hope : i do n't understand . i held a child that night in the clinic . liam : you passed out during labor . that 's when dr . buckingham did it . that 's when he ... made the switch . tremfya ® helps adults with moderate brooke : dr. buckingham put a dead baby in my daughters arms and told her that it was beth ? flo : yes . brooke : do you know how traumatizing that was ? she thought it was the last time she was ever going to hold her child . zoe : i 'm -- i 'm so sorry . i am mortified by what my father did . and so is he . he hated himself for it . ridge : the only thing your dad was concerned about was making sure that everyone believed that beth was gone . brooke : and what about you , flo ? i ca n't believe that you actually did this just as a favor . shauna : just be honest , honey . there 's no turning back . flo : reese gave me a little bit of the money that taylor gave him . ridge : what ? flo : but it felt like blood money , and i did n't want it . i literally threw it back at him . i know that does n't matter . i 'm not trying to make excuses or anything . brooke : oh , my god ! you two must be disgusted with yourselves . ridge : you let steffy raise hope and liam 's baby , and you 're gon na pay for that , i promise you that . brooke : my daughter has been there for you . she loves you . she accepted you into our family . you -- you 're her cousin ! and , you , you 're her friend ! her heart broke into a million pieces that night . and her marriage split apart . and there were times i was so worried about her , i was n't sure she was gon na make it because of her grief . and you two just sat back and let it happen ? you shamefully and willfully participated in this vicious crime against my daughter . hope : dr. buckingham stole our baby ? liam : i know , it 's hard to even imagine . hope : why -- why would he even do that ? liam : [ sighs ] money . he owed money to these guys in vegas , and they were threatening to hurt zoe , and so he thought taking beth , he could pay down his debt . hope : but , wait , how -- how did she end up here with steffy ? liam : [ sighs ] because it turns out that taylor knew dr . buckingham beforehand , and -- and i guess she was talking to him about how steffy wants to adopt , and ... that 's when he got flo to pass off beth as her own , so that he could collect his `` finder 's fee `` from taylor . hope : so he tricked them , too . liam : yeah , but -- steffy and taylor had no idea that phoebe was beth . hope : but , liam , that night in the clinic , i -- i remember that moment so clearly . i held her , she was wrapped in a blanket . she was already gone . liam : well , that 's the sickest part about this whole thing , is that -- that night , there was another woman who came into the clinic before you did , and ... she lost her baby . it was stillborn . hope : so dr . buckingham switched the babies ? liam : he looked you in the eye and he handed you that baby and he -- and he told you it was beth . hope : he kept our beautiful , healthy baby away from us , all for money ? so who else knows about this besides dr . buckingham and flo ? is there anyone ? liam : zoe knew . she -- she found out after the fact . i 'm assuming that she did n't say anything because she wanted to keep her father out of prison . hope : okay , so zoe knew . liam : and xander . and emma . she heard them arguing the night that she died . she was on her way to tell you the truth when -- when her car went off the cliff . hope : oh , my god ... liam : there 's something else you should know , too . thomas was there . he was chasing her in his car . and , apparently , thomas has known since around the time we annulled our marriage . hope : he knew for that long , and he did n't say anything to me ? liam : because he knew if he did , you 'd leave him . hope : we exchanged vows . he promised to cherish me and to honor me , and he knew that beth was alive ? liam : do you see ? do you see what a sick bastard he is ? this is why i was going after him the way that i was . hope : i 'm sorry he hit you . are you okay ? liam : i 'm fine , i just -- i just wanted to get to you in time to tell you the truth . hope : i 'm so grateful that you did , liam . you saved me . you saved us . we have a daughter . we have our beth . [ giggles ] ridge : yes , buckingham . dr. reese buckingham . find him and arrest him . yes , he 's in london . thank you . zoe : please have mercy on my father . i am begging you . brooke : the same way he showed mercy for my daughter and her innocent baby ? zoe : he was desperate , okay ? he had to pay those guys off , or they would have killed me ! ridge : he kidnapped a baby , an innocent little child , and you helped him do it ! shauna : i 'm thinking we should call a lawyer . flo : no , mom , i 'm not thinking about that right now . ridge : well , you should be ! shauna : wait ! please . flo has been racked with guilt , and she has wanted to tell hope for months , but i begged her not to . i could n't watch her go to jail , and i still can't . i mean , she 's my baby . if you 're gon na lock anybody up , please , please let it be me . brooke : do n't worry , shauna . you 're all gon na suffer the consequences for what you 've done . but , right now , all i can think about is my granddaughter and the fact that she 's alive . we have to tell hope . hope : liam , you 've figured all this out . you put it all together . you gave her back her parents . liam : i do n't deserve all the credit . a certain someone gave me a clue . hope : douglas . liam : he was right all along . hope : gosh , i remember when he tried to tell me that beth was alive , but ... i thought he was confused . i did n't realize he was telling me the truth .

[ baby cries ] hope : yeah . but , wait , this is all starting to make sense . you remember when flo found out that she was a logan , and her mother shauna came to town , and she did n't even know that she was pregnant ? liam : oh , yeah , as close as they are . like , mother and daughter living in the same city together , there is no way that she would n't have known flo was pregnant . hope : i was wondering the same thing , too , but flo had some excuse , so i just let her go . i let it go . liam : well , and do you remember when we ran into her at wyatt 's house ? i mean , because that was the first time that i met flo , and wyatt had no idea that she was phoebe 's birth mom . i mean , you 'd think that would come up in conversation , right ? hope : yes , i -- i had completely forgotten about that . liam : but then , on the other hand , you and i both assumed that flo just wanted to put the adoption behind her and move on with her life , and we just -- we had no reason to be suspicious at that point . hope : i 'm just remembering all the times that she came to me and was so upset and so sad about losing our daughter , about our annulment . she even insisted that we try to have another child together . liam : she felt guilty . hope : i even walked in on her and zoe talking about beth . they saw how devastated i was and they said nothing ! they let me suffer !

[ chuckles , sniffles ] liam : we both will . hope : now i just want to focus on our little miracle . i want to focus on our beth . this whole time , she was right under our noses , and we knew . remember at the wedding when she crawled up to me and she called me `` mama ? `` liam : she knew . hope : liam , i ended our marriage because i thought ... i thought she was gone . [ baby cries ] hope : you 're all right , baby . liam : and it did n't help that thomas was manipulating you . hope : none of this should have ever happened . none of this should have ever happened . but look at us now . [ baby cries ] i have never been grateful to anyone more than i am to you . look at us , the three of us . all of our dreams . it 's all our dreams . they 're still ours . we can still rebuild . i love you so much , liam . liam : i love you , too . [ baby cries ] hope : [ giggles ] liam : you 've never seen us do that , have you ? hope : [ giggles ] [ crying continues ] hope : it 's okay . it 's okay . say hi to your mommy and daddy . welcome to the family . welcome to our family . | hope ca n't believe it as she holds beth . this is their beautiful baby . they both squeal with delight . but then she wants to know how . brooke tells shauna to shut up . there is no protecting her daughter any more . ridge asks if phoebe is beth and flo nods yes . he wants her to explain . before she says a word , zoe opens the door to come in . she sees the group and says she will come back . ridge says no , come on in as they were just ready to talk about her dad who is responsible for all of this . they know the truth . zoe first denies it ; she knows nothing about this . upon questioning she admits her life was in danger and that is why her father stepped in and did what he did . brooke tells flo that saving her own butt was more important than telling the truth about her daughter 's baby . she wants more details how hope held that dead baby and dr. buckingham convinced them her baby was dead . but he ended up with a live baby . and they wonder if steffy knew . flo says no . by time she got involved it was a done deal just posing as the birth mom . ridge remembers seeing taylor with a case full of money so she was the go between . zoe apologizes and says her dad hated himself for it . brooke says she can not believe flo did this just as a favor . shauna nods for her to tell the truth . flo says she is not making excuses but reese did give her a little money for her part . she threw it back at him but that does not matter now . brooke continues to rail at zoe and flo for knowing all the details and willfully and knowingly keeping all of this from hope whose heart had broken into a million pieces when she thought beth had died . and then months went by and brooke worried about her , right up to the time her marriage to liam split . flo and zoe had time then to speak up and tell the truth . | <s>[INST] hope : our baby . this is our baby . i ca n't believe it . liam : this is her . this is our beth . hope : oh , my gosh , she 's so beautiful . liam : yeah . hope : all those times i held her before ... liam : she was yours . you just did n't know it . hope : i feel like i 'm meeting her for the first time . liam : well , in a way , you 're -- you 're being with her for the first time as her mother .

[ scene_break ] paul : hi . i was starting to think maybe you moved back to texas to , you know , drink beer on your porch . meg : the thought did cross my mind . paul : you could 've at least answered one of my phone calls . meg : paul , when i told you i needed some time to think about it , i meant more than a few hours . paul : yeah , but it was like two days . and two really long and agonizingly lonely nights . now 's when you say how much you missed me . meg : missing you or not is not the issue here . paul : can we just go somewhere and talk ? just for a little bit , please ? meg : no . no , let 's talk here . tell me why you 're stalking me . paul : i would be glad to . i just -- i think that it would easier if we did it in private . meg : exactly . because you 're trying to wiggle out of something , and i 'm not going to make it easy for you . so why ca n't we talk here instead of -- paul : okay , okay . stop , stop , stop . i just talked to my lawyer . meg : about the divorce or about the baby ? paul : no , nothing 's changed with the divorce . it 's still going through as planned . meg : and the baby ? paul : i ca n't give it up . i 'm gon na raise my child , and i 'm prepared to fight emily if i have to . meg : well , so much for including me in the decision . paul : look , i really wanted to , more than anything . but i had to move really quickly , and you did n't return any of my phone calls . meg : oh , oh , oh -- so it 's my fault that i did n't have a say in this ? oh , okay . paul : no . i had no choice . i had to take a leap . i just hope i have n't lost you because of it . [ scene_break ] emily : no , i understand . yeah , it certainly is a lot to take in . but i appreciate you letting me know right away . yeah , i 'll be in touch . thanks . bye . hey , what the heck ? where did you come from ? come here . come here , baby . come here . oh , you 're so sweet . hey , buddy , what are you here for ? come here . come here . are you a patient in this horrible place ? who 's your doctor , anyway ? henry : dr. frankenfurter , who else ? emily : does this guy belong to you ? really ? henry : yeah , i snuck into the ward as a service dog volunteer . emily : what 's a service dog volunteer ? henry : pooch and i , we go around and offer canine companionship to any of the patients that need a little cheering up . and from the smile on your face , i see it worked . come on . emily : come here . henry : i see that it works . tell me that your good mood is due to the fact that paul has signed the papers giving up all rights to the baby . he 's out of your life forever , yes ? emily : no . no , i 'm afraid not . i just spoke to my lawyer , and he told me that paul has decided to fight me and my mother for custody of the baby . henry : oh , emily , i am so sorry . emily : do n't be . i 'm not . i 'm okay with it . i really am . [ scene_break ] jack : okay , look , now that the sun 's up , i want every inch of these woods and hills covered in a 20-mile radius . nick and carly have been missing for more than eight hours , which means they have a substantial lead . given the severity of the accident , i 'm pretty sure that one of them , if not both of them have been injured to the point that it would slow them down considerably . also , with the rainstorm that blew through here last night , it 's more than likely that they had to find shelter until morning . the bad news is , that same rain storm wiped out their tracks and scent , right ? so the dogs are useless . listen to me very carefully . nick is armed , and he 's been trained in marksmanship just like the rest of you . so take every precaution . do you understand me ? get out of here , go . thanks . and good luck . margo : you do n't look so good , jack . maybe you should take a rest . jack : i 'll rest when we find carly . and we will find carly . margo : what ? what is it ? jack : it looks like a scrap of carly 's shirt . margo : yeah , it does . and that 's blood . jack : yeah , thanks . keep doing what you 're doing , and keep me posted . over . margo : jack , we 've got officers out on atvs covering the north hills , and hal 's trying to arrange for additional choppers . jack : how many ? margo : i do n't know . as many as he can requisition . jack , we 're doing whatever we can . jack : yeah . but is it enough ? that 's what i want to know . how 's katie doing ? margo : she 's pretty beat up , but she 's gon na be okay . she 's still in the hospital . they 'll probably release her this afternoon . jack : well , let 's get somebody over there to get another statement from her . details might have come back to her that she did n't remember at first . margo : jack , i sent someone over this morning . jack : she might be more focused , her mind might be a little clearer . she might hit on something that nick said that might indicate where he was headed , that 's all . margo : yeah , yeah , i hope so . jack : fine , you know what ? i 'll go talk to her myself , margo ! margo : jack , come on , ramirez is on it . you can not be in ten different places at one time . you ca n't do it . jack : i know that ! i know that . but i 've been trying to call mike all morning , and he has n't returned any of my calls . i just need to know if nick mentioned about coming out to this part of the woods . if there was a place he could be reached on foot . margo : but do n't you think that mike is probably concentrating all of his efforts on katie right now ? he 's probably unplugged his cell phone . jack : yeah , well , katie 's back , and she 's fine . carly 's still out there someplace ! margo : jack , we 're doing whatever we can , okay ? jack : i know that . i 'm sorry . i know that . and i am glad that katie is safe and sound . i am . she was a real trooper helping us find this crash site . we just -- we just did n't get here in time , that 's all . margo : you know what ? you know what katie said ? katie also said that carly was on top of it . she 's thinking on her feet . come on , she 's tough . she 's a fighter . you know that better than anybody . jack : yeah , i do . and that 's what scares me . 'cause carly can play it too tough sometimes . i mean , she purposely got in an accident to slow nick down . she might have gotten herself killed in the process . that 's all . margo : you know what ? listen , let 's take comfort in the fact that carly got herself out of here under her own steam , all right ? she 's probably not that seriously injured . jack : there 's blood on her car seat , margo . and she 's out there with a killer . it 's hard to take comfort in much of anything right now . [ scene_break ] carly : damn it . come on , carly . you 've got to get out of here . [ scene_break ] barbara : you will never guess who is on his way over here , as we speak , to meet with you . dusty : the queen of england ? barbara : i have a call in to her . eric dunham . dusty : the eric dunham ? jennifer : you 've heard of him ? dusty : no . barbara : you really woke up on the funny side of bed this morning , did n't you ? no , eric dunham is the premier wedding planner in all of chicagoland . he did the cartwright 's ' wedding , and the dumont 's ' . he is absolutely amazing , and he is on his way over here to meet with you . jennifer : wow . barbara : yeah , and there 's more . i put two appointments in place for this afternoon to meet with the two most fabulous wedding photographers in all the chicagoland area . and i found a fabulous caterer by the name of jean georges barones . jennifer : okay , that 's all great , mom . but i ca n't today . i have to take johnny to the pediatrician for a follow up for some vaccinations that he had a couple months ago . barbara : honey , dusty can take him to the doctor . you need a little quality time , do n't you , with johnny ? [ cell phone ringing ] oh , oh , oh -- must be jean georges . hold on one second . hold on , here it is . okay . jean georges ? oh , yes , bonjour . comment ca va ? jennifer : you 're not gon na really make me stay with her , are you ? dusty : i 'll take johnny to the doctor . i do n't think we want your mother making all the wedding plans , you know ? jennifer : but , why -- why do we need a wedding planner , anyway ? all i need to get married are you and johnny , and my wedding dress . dusty : well , if you 're serious about that , i 've got a great idea . let 's take johnny and get of here . we 'll make a run for it . [ johnny fussing ] we 'll get married tonight . yeah , huh , buddy ? [ scene_break ] waitress : your change ? meg : thank you . so what finally clinched the decision ? paul : jennifer and dusty decided to get married . so i crashed the engagement party . meg : was n't that just asking for trouble ? paul : i thought that if i caught jennifer in a moment of happiness , that it might be easier to get her to start thinking about forgiving me . meg : so did she ? paul : not by a long shot , no . meg : paul , i 'm sorry . paul : it was a dumb mistake . i should 've known better . meg : what happened ? paul : well , instead of pulling her closer , i just -- i pushed her even further away . she made a line in the sand . and she says that she does n't want to have anything to do with me ever again . meg : she does n't mean that . paul : you were n't there . it was worse than when she shut me out after everything that happened with johnny . meg : she said this out loud to everyone ? that must have been horrible . paul : no , actually , she was pretty calm about the whole thing . meg : which makes it worse . paul : it made me realize something , though . meg , i have no family left . all i have is you . and this baby . meg : so you decided you could n't let it go . paul : you always knew that i would n't be able to , even before i did . you said i would n't be able to abandon my child , and you were right . meg : the trouble is , i also know that emily ca n't let go , either . paul : no , no , no . i can take care of that . i 've got the law on my side . meg : maybe . paul : look , i ca n't do any of this without you . i need you . meg : oh , paul -- paul : i need you in my new life . look , i know what i 'm asking of you is ridiculous . i 'm being honest with you . and this is real . i want to be a father , and i want to start a family . and none of it makes any sense -- none of it 's complete without you . [ scene_break ] henry : good , so you 're gon na fight paul . good . good , good , good . i will help you do that , too . i 'm gon na march down to that custody hearing and swear under oath that the baby belongs to you and susan . and then i 'll make paul out to be hannibal lecter and caligula all rolled up into one . emily : henry , i appreciate your support . but i 'm not sure what 's going to happen . henry : what do you mean , you 're not sure what 's going to happen ? judges always side with the natural mother . and yeah , you may spend a little time in jail , but it 's not like paul has never spent time behind bars . he does n't have a leg to stand on here , em . you can win this fight . emily : i 'm not sure fighting 's the way . henry : oh , fighting is the way . fighting is the only way . emily : yeah , well , not if it alienates paul forever . henry : you say that like it 's a bad thing . emily : will you just hear me out here , okay ? meg barged in here the other night and accused me of putting out the sonogram picture so paul would see it . henry : why would she say you would do something like that ? emily : to get paul back . henry : that just proves how off base she is . because the last thing that you 'd want is to have paul back in your life , right ? that 's true , right ? emily : see , i just do n't think meg and paul are as solid as they want us all to believe . henry : okay , but you do n't care about that because you do n't care about paul anymore , right ? emily : i think this baby is driving meg away . henry : emily -- no , emily -- emily , stop right now . stop what you 're thinking right now . you 're going down the wrong highway at about a 100 miles an hour too fast . now slam on the brakes , now ! emily : i ca n't . i thought i could , henry , but -- i 've got a baby inside of me . and with every heartbeat , it reminds me how much i still love paul . [ scene_break ] jennifer : okay , let 's do it . let 's take johnny . let 's hop a plane to vegas tonight , and we could be married by midnight . dusty : you could n't do it . you could n't break your mother 's heart like that . jennifer : yes , yes i could . dusty : no , you could n't . nice try , honey . jennifer : i just -- it does n't matter where we are , honey , really . i just want to look in your eyes and say , `` i do . `` dusty : we 'll do it at home . jennifer : okay then . with barbara 's frills attached . dusty : well , she 's your mom . you know , you keep an eye on her , things will turn out beautifully . jennifer : yeah , i just might get a little crazy getting there . dusty : so what ? you 're tough . you 're a toughie , you can handle it . barbara : okay , so what time 's this little guy 's appointment ? jennifer : soon . barbara : well , then you better get a move on , mister , in case there 's traffic . dusty : let 's do it , my man . if we 're lucky , we 'll be in mexico by morning . bye , sweetie . jennifer : bye , sweets . dusty : bye , barbara . barbara : bye , dusty . okay , now we can get down to business . jennifer : do n't we have to wait for eric -- barbara : oh , he 'll be over here soon . no , no , no , there 's something else i want to talk to you about . jennifer : uh - huh . barbara : we need to talk about paul . and i did n't want to do it while dusty was here . jennifer : i have nothing to say about paul . barbara : honey , listen to me . i can help you . i can arrange for you and paul to meet each other -- wherever you want , whenever you want , and dusty does n't have to know a thing . [ scene_break ] meg : look , you should know i went to see emily the other night at the hospital . paul : why would you do something like -- ? meg : because i wanted to look in her eyes and see if she had really let you go . paul : she has . i 'm sure of it . meg : well , i 'm not . paul : why would you do something -- why would you go and look for problems that do n't exist anymore ? meg : look , paul , it 's great that you want to let this baby -- that you want to keep this baby in your life . but i do n't trust for a second that emily 's not gon na try and use that to keep you in hers . paul : not if we wo n't let her . meg : she 's gon na make our lives together miserable . paul : no , she ca n't touch us . emily 's gon na be in an institution of some kind for a really long -- what 's it gon na take for me -- you have to believe that emily ca n't hurt us anymore . look , we can do this , right ? we can be a family . the three of us . do n't -- please , do n't walk away from that . meg : the only thing that would make me walk away is another lie . paul : i 'm not gon na do that ever again . meg : how can i be sure , paul ? paul : all you can do is take my word . which i know does n't mean anything because i lied to you but , look , i learned my lesson , all right ? i know that if i -- if i do n't tell you the truth , if i try and protect you that that just winds up pushing you even further away , okay ? and i 'm not gon na make that mistake again . meg : so , you really think we can start over ? paul : if you have half as much faith in me as i have in you . you -- you 're amazing . you are -- you 're gon na -- no doubt in my mind , you 're gon na be a wonderful mother . and there 's no doubt in my mind that , in time , you will feel about this baby that it 's yours as much as mine . we can do this -- if you love me . do you still love me ? meg : i do still love you . paul : all right , i love you . the question is , do you know in your heart that you can love this child ? meg : i know in my heart that i 'll give it everything i 've got . [ scene_break ] henry : please -- please tell me that you are joking . or you 're highly medicated , maybe ? is that it ? emily : no , neither . henry : you ca n't possibly think that you still have a future with paul ? for god 's sakes , why would you want one , em ? emily : you know , if you have to even ask me that question , i doubt that i 'll be able to explain it to you . henry : that 's because it 's an absolutely insane idea . emily : love is always a little insane , is n't it ? henry : yeah , so is necrophilia . that does n't make it the right thing to do . emily : would you just listen to me . being with paul was impossible only because meg was in the picture . but this baby has caused a shift in their relationship . i know it has . i saw it when she came to see me . the desperation was in her eyes , henry . henry : really , have you looked in the mirror lately ? emily : is it so wrong for me to want to have a relationship with the father of my child ? henry : yes , when the father is paul ryan . he makes ted bundy look like a fun blind date . emily : would you stop it already ? henry : sorry , that was a slight exaggeration . but he is not worthy of your love , and deep down you know that , em . you can not rationalize this decision . emily : well , you 're not gon na change my mind , so -- henry : well , then you leave me with no other choice . emily : what -- you 're leaving ? henry : yeah , i 'm leaving . emily : you 're taking the dog ? henry : yeah , i 'm taking the dog . emily : henry -- henry : i need some reinforcements and you need a reality check . and i know just the people to give it to you . come on , boy . [ scene_break ] margo : we do n't know that nick is gon na call . jack : if he did n't , i 'd be surprised . usually people who take hostages wind up negotiating with somebody . margo : that someone should n't be you . jack : i 've got the tech department monitoring the transponders , in case he tries to call from his cell to my cell . and i got somebody watching mike 's landline . nick knows all the tricks , though . as much as i hate to admit it , he 's a smart cop . margo : okay , will you please not bite my head off when i say this -- everybody knows that nick has a soft spot for carly -- always has . and that 's gon na work in her favor , jack . jack : let 's hope you 're right about that . i 'm gon na take another sweep around the area . i just do n't want to stand around here , it 's driving me crazy . margo : go ahead , go ahead . [ cell phone rings ] is it nick ? jack : where are you , kasnoff ? what have you done with carly ? carly : jack , it 's me . jack : carly ! thank god . where are you ? carly : i do n't know . i 'm in a cave someplace . i do n't know where . i 'm scared . jack : where 's nick ? carly : i think i knocked him out . but i 'm weak -- jack : carly ? carly , are you there ? carly , answer me ! car [ scene_break ] announcer : coming up on `` as the world turns `` -- meg : the person i 'm worried about is emily . emily : i need to see paul . and i know how . nick : where 's your wedding ring ? carly : i do n't know . jack : it 's carly 's wedding ring . [ scene_break ] emily : so , where are all your reinforcements ? henry : i never got a chance to call anybody . i ran into poochie 's owner , and then i had to pretend that i was searching for the guy to give him back his missing dog . emily : lucky for me . i just wish you 'd stop making such a big deal out of all this . henry : okay . okay , em . i 'll tell you what , i 'll make a deal with you -- you tell me that you were kidding about getting back together with paul , and i will drop the whole thing . emily : i 'm not kidding . but instead of worrying about me getting hurt again -- listen to me , be glad that two damaged people are finally getting the chance to do things right . henry : emily , what greeting card did you get that from ? emily : paul and i will always and forever be tied to each other . and it 's not just because of this baby . henry : what else is there ? emily : we 're soul mates , henry . henry : that 's why you shot him in the back , right ? emily : no , i shot him in the back because i could n't stand the thought of not spending the rest of my life with . it was unbearable . and i threw myself off the cliff because i could n't stand the fact that he had chosen meg over me . henry : and yet , you still ca n't get the hint ! emily : and you are not hearing the obvious , henry . i have been pushed to the absolute extreme by this man . past all rational thought , past all control . i 've been willing to do absolutely anything to hold onto him . if that is n't love at its most profound , then what is ? [ henry sighs ] [ scene_break ] paul : i think you might have just made me the happiest man alive . meg : wow . and all i had to do was promise to take another woman 's baby and raise it as my own . paul : already you 're having second thoughts ? meg : no . no , i 'm very excited . of course , that could be the latte , or i 'm just frantic with fear . paul : you do n't need to be afraid . not now , no . not while we 're together . meg : you and i are fine . the person i 'm worried about is emily . paul : look , emily 's exposure to this child is gon na be limited . even if she does get visitation rights , she 's gon na be in an institution or a prison . then there 's no way that emily is ever gon na come between you and me . meg : well , if she tries , i will definitely put up a fight . but , i do n't want to spend another couple of days without you . paul : oh , tell me about it . i was like a crazy man . i was gon na come to the farm and climb up to your window . meg : really ? well , you know , that would 've been quite a feat . my room 's in the attic . paul : oh , i see . yeah , and i was a little scared that your mom was gon na be there with her trusty shotgun . meg : yeah . she can hit anything at 30 paces . especially a varmint like you . paul : oh . [ meg laughs ] yeah . i think i 've had enough bullets for one lifetime . and now i have so much to live for . meg : i 'm glad to hear it . paul : you 're glad to hear it ? meg : yeah . paul : what do you say we get you out of that attic now ? meg : are you asking me to live with you ? paul : i do n't know . maybe the place that we were thinking about living , you know , the place that we were looking at -- maybe it 's still available . meg : you think ? paul : i do n't know . i 'll find out . in the meantime , why do n't i take you back to my place ? and meg , do n't you ever leave me again . [ scene_break ] jack : now it 's going straight to voice mail . margo : hey , did you ever think that maybe the battery died in the middle of the phone call . i mean , why do you always have to go to the worst -- yeah , hi . okay . carly was n't on the phone long enough for the techs to pinpoint her -- jack : she said that she was in a cave someplace , but she did n't know where . margo : jack , there are caves all over these hills . she could be anywhere . jack : with a maniac who might have just caught her trying to make a call for help . [ scene_break ] nick : you know , that was real stupid , carly . carly : the only stupid thing was that i did n't hit you harder with that rock . nick : am i bleeding ? carly : what am i , your nurse ? you know , if you 're gon na hold somebody hostage , do n't be surprised if they do n't care how much you bleed . nick : keep pushing , carly , and i might not be such a nice guy . carly : a nice guy would 've left me at the crash site . nick : i got you out of the car , did n't i ? carly : why did you bother ? nick : i have my reasons . carly : well , you want to let me in on the plan , nick ? why are we still here ? nick : 'cause i 'm waiting for nightfall . carly : and then what ? nick : and then we 're going to canada . carly : canada ? keep dreaming . you wo n't make it to the county line . jack will get you way before then . nick : yeah , he may try . but as long as i got a gun to your head , he 's not gon na get very far . carly : well , nick , you 're just missing one crucial piece of information . nick : what 's that ? carly : i may not make it to nightfall . nick : carly ?

liam : i -- i mean ... he 's still gon na get to see him . wyatt : yeah . liam : although will 's not getting much from dad as it now , anyway . wyatt : yeah , but anything 's better than nothing . like , we had nothing . i mean , come on . liam : i do n't -- i do n't know . you know , a couple of days a month for a couple of hours a day , that -- that 's not fatherhood . that 's , like , a part - time buddy . do n't get me wrong . dad 's fun . he 'll take you places . wyatt : sure . liam : you know , on vacations and stuff . wyatt : yeah . liam : he 's the one with the helicopters and the boats and the jet planes . but what will actually needs , which is security and consistency and -- and -- wyatt : reliability . liam : ... reliability ... wyatt : yeah . liam : ... and devotion , i mean , these are the things that katie is actually giving him . wyatt : i know . liam : and i - i 'm sorry , but thorne 's doing a pretty damn good job of it , too . wyatt : no . no , thorne is not his father . he 's never gon na be his father . does n't matter how much -- how much time he spends with will , he is never gon na replace dad . that 's it . liam : well , maybe he should . wyatt : what ?

`` how many times have i pleaded with you to put your obsession with steffy aside for five minutes so you could find time to spend with your child ? bill : you 've been staying with mommy a lot lately , will . tonight you 're gon na stay with me . will : do i have to ? katie : will needs stability and security , and he is not getting that from you . so i am re - establishing boundaries and taking charge . i 'm going after sole custody of our son . bill : that 's the worst decision you could make , katie . you want to go to war with me ? it 's a war you 're going to lose . bill : i do n't care what it takes , justin . we 're pulling out all the stops . justin : okay , look , i know how bad you want to keep your son , but you 've got to rein it in , okay ? look , keep a level head . bill : all i 'm asking is for you to put a few feelers out . what 's the big deal ? justin : you 're asking me to track down the judge that 's about to hear your custody case . now , i know we 've done a whole lot of things in regards to business before , but this ? if we get caught , we go to jail . do you want him to come visit you in prison ? bill : oh , come on . nobody 's going to prison . we 'll be smart like we always are . no paper trail . no digital trail . just do whatever you have to do . but we need something on that judge . justin : you have lost your damn mind . tampering with the judge is the last thing you need to be considering . you have enough strikes against you , bill . trying to influence the judge could be disastrous . ridge : so ... how 's the family ? judge mcmullen : julie and the kids are good . good . audrey just started sophomore year . ridge : i - i just -- i feel like i just saw her . she was a baby . how is that possible ? what about -- i 'm sorry , it 's , um -- it 's michael ?

family court ? judge mcmullen : yeah . ridge : you get to help families , kids . judge mcmullen : it 's extremely rewarding , it is . and i 'll never forget how i got here . i owe so much of my career to you and your generous support over the years . ridge : listen , you were always going places . i just ... wanted to be part of the journey , that 's all . judge mcmullen : [ sighs ] well , thank you , ridge . if you would n't have loaned me the money for law school , i do n't know where i 'd be today , honestly . if there 's ever any way that i can repay you , you just say the words . ridge : well , that 's funny . um ... okay . there is something you can do . for my family . for an innocent little boy . i know you were just assigned a case , a custody case . katie logan versus bill spencer . it would mean the world to me if full custody went to the mother . | bill stands before ridge and says do himself a favor and stay out of this . ridge says it is his family too and there is no way he is going to leave it to bill . katie reveals her doubts to thorne . not that she is regretting the court date but she is not looking forward to trying to take bill 's son away from him . liam and wyatt discuss things and liam says kelly is fine and hope 's pregnancy is going well so he has no complaints . but they both discover each have been subpoenaed to testify , liam for katie and wyatt for his dad . liam says katie has a big heart but she is going to do all she can to have full custody of will . liam laments that it is just the luck of the draw that bill spencer is their father . wyatt says he is not sure that he even can change . he keeps doing bad things over and over . liam says the only good thing he can say about him now is that he does love will . carter breaks in on thorne and katie and says he has a court date and the judge has been assigned so they are all ready to go . bill grouses to justin that they have to do everything they can , some angle to swing it to their favor . carter tells thorne that the judge is well respected in the community as being fair . ridge walks in and is told the case is on the docket and carter even mentions the judge 's name . ridge looks like he may have been given a gift . he tells thorne they both know that bill plays dirty so better keep that in mind . will is a lucky kid to be getting thorne as his stepfather . | <s>[INST] bill : do yourself a favor , forrester . stay out of this . it 's got nothing to do with you . ridge : will is family . i 'm gon na protect that little boy . bill : will is my son , and this is none of your business . now , i know you 're all giddy thinking i 'm gon na fall , but let me tell you something . there is no way i 'm gon na lose custody of my son . certainly not to that gutless brother of yours . thorne : hey . katie : hey . thorne : what 's wrong ? katie : um ... brooke is still defending bill . thorne : really ? [ scoffs ] i do n't understand that . why would she go to bat for him ? katie : well , she thinks that things should just stay the same . but they can't . the situation has to change . we need more structure . thorne : you 're not having second thoughts about going for full custody , are you ? katie : no , but i -- i do n't want to cut bill out of will 's life , but i -- i hate that my son is being drawn into this . i mean , he 's gon na have to see a custody evaluator . he 's already witnessing our hushed conversations . thorne : katie . katie . he is why we are doing this , okay ? it 's best for will in the long run . liam : you know , i was supposed to have a meeting with hope in here , but apparently she 's too busy for her leech of a husband . can you believe that ? wyatt : heh . yeah . it appears my girlfriend has better things to do , too , so ... liam : so i 'm stuck with you , is what you 're saying . wyatt : yeah . liam : ugh ! wyatt : [ laughs ] all right . so , come on . fill me in . what 's been happening ? how 's dad life ? how 's the baby ? or babies , should i say ? liam : yeah , right ? uh ... it 's good , man . it 's good . like , um , kelly 's incredible , obviously . um , hope 's pregnancy is going really well . i have nothing to complain about . wyatt : good , man . good . i 'm glad to hear it . um ... have you , uh ... have you talked to dad lately ? liam : [ scoffs ] no . wyatt : but , i mean , you do know about the whole custody battle with katie and will , right ? liam : yeah , i , uh -- i know about it . i kind of got subpoenaed to testify for katie . wyatt : oh ! [ chuckles ] liam : what ? what ? wyatt : i kind of got subpoenaed to testify for dad . wyatt : i mean , i just -- i - i ca n't believe katie 's actually going through with this . liam : yeah , well , it must have just , like , compounded over time , you know ? one long , painful string of father failures . wyatt : yeah , but , i mean , it 's just -- it 's just too bad they ca n't come to some kind of an arrangement , you know ? like , instead of court . liam : yeah , but think about it . have you -- have you ever known dad to compromise on anything ? wyatt : fair point . liam : katie 's will 's mom . you know , she 's -- she 's gon na do whatever it takes to protect will . including from dad . thorne : you know brooke . she has a big heart , and she feels sorry for bill . do n't let her get to you . okay ?

sharon : i do n't know . maybe . nick : it 's just -- sharon , there is so much to this girl that we do n't know , but let 's go over what we do know . she has a connection to ian ward . she just happened to show up in town and cross paths with dad when he was looking for a way to hurt you . and now this . sharon : okay , so she has n't told us every single detail of her private life . why is that such a big deal ?

one little lie and you 're gon na fire her and throw her out of the house ? nick : [ sighs ] sharon : so that 's what you 're going to do ? kick her out ? nick : i think my reservations about mariah are justified . sharon : i 'm not saying they are n't . i just wish you would admit there may be a legitimate reason why mariah led us to believe her mother is dead and that she really does want to change . nick : well , i guess neither of us knows anything for sure . sharon : i know you 're just looking out for me and your family . just do n't rush to judgment on this . nick : so , you want me to let her stay and in our home ? sharon : please ? nick : [ sighs ] okay , but i 'm gon na be keeping a very close eye on her . sharon : because you have n't been doing that all along . nick : closer . sharon : thanks . i 'm glad we could move on from this . nick : yeah . me too . lauren : kevin , listen , michael and i are at the police station . we were hoping to catch you and grab dinner , but maybe you 're on your way . we 'll wait for just a little while longer . all right , honey . bye . michael : well , hopefully he wo n't ignore you like he did me . lauren : yeah . michael : [ sighs ] harding : do n't you have your own office , baldwin ?

it was nothing . it was , like , a stupid little incident . brady : incident ? well , she said that you attacked her . nicole : oh , well , give her the chance , and she 'd call it world war iii . i 'm so done here . there 's no time . good - bye . brady : did you exaggerate ? kristen : is that what you want to believe ? brady : i just want to know the truth . kristen : okay , well , the truth is she is a sad , pathetic human being , and i 'm not the only one that thinks that , or marlena would n't have stood up for me . brady : marlena stood up for you ? kristen : she did . i know . i was shocked too . but clearly it 's because nicole is out of control , and she 's over the top . and people like that , you know , they just want to lash out and blame everybody else for their problems . i hate this . i can tell you 're upset , and i want to talk to you , but i have that errand to run . you want to go with me ?

kate : no . of course not . no , i 'm not . i mean , i do n't know , though . if you 're asking me , maybe i should be . rafe : oh , come on . you have to admit that jordan being a little less than totally serious about anything is ... wow . kate : oh , yeah . yeah , wow . hope : rafe . excuse us . uh , we need to talk . rafe : what happened ? is it about sami ? hope : no , she 's fine , but we need to go over something about the case with you . and there 's not much time . would you excuse us ? kate , we need to talk to rafe alone . ej : justin , what 's going on ? justin : something big , but i do n't know what . abe and hope are psyched about something but are completely tight - lipped . sami , i think you have reason to be optimistic . ej : why ? justin : because they are -- they want this to be airtight , so they 're dotting the `` i '' s , crossing their `` t '' s. i mean , do you really think they 'd be working this hard on something if it could possibly hurt sami ?

monica : michael ! what a lovely surprise . just in time to join me for breakfast . michael : uh , actually , uh , maybe some other time . uh , i was -- i was wondering if you 've seen aj . i have some news about elq , and i 've been trying to reach him since last night . and i do n't know why he 's not returning my phone calls . do you have any idea what he 's been up to ? [ indistinct conversations ] carly : [ sighs ] aj : [ laughing ] carly : [ groans ] okay . [ telephone ringing ] carly : [ groans ] okay . [ exhales sharply ] all right . [ cell phone ringing ] carly : what the ... aj : do n't answer that ! aj 's voicemail : hi . this is aj . sorry to miss your call . leave a message . [ beep ] elizabeth : hey , it 's me -- elizabeth . uh , i 'm glad we worked things out last night . i 'm really looking forward to seeing you . call me . [ sighs ] tracy : you have not heard a word i 've said . nikolas : sorry ? tracy : my spies at elq have reported back . the relish war 's final battle has begun . pickle - lila fired its first shot . [ indistinct conversations ] felix : what did patrick say when he got home ? i know he does n't want the baby . but still , he must have been a little upset . you know , about britt 's abortion . sabrina : there was n't one . britt : [ sighs , groans ] patrick : you okay ? britt : no . i do n't think so . johnny : [ chuckles ] look who 's here . olivia : it 's been a long time , john . johnny : connie told you about morgan ? olivia : yeah . johnny : is carly taking care of it ? olivia : no . but do n't worry . sonny 's on it . hawes : mr. corinthos , please ! you ca n't just barge in here ! sonny : morgan , you in there ? hawes : i already told you -- he is not on campus . sonny : then where is he ? 'cause i 'm gon na find out what happened to my son , no matter what it takes . nikolas : i do n't understand . neither product reaches mass market until the end of the month . tracy : by then , it 'll be too late . duke lavery has managed to pull off a major publicity coup . by then , we 'll be so far behind in marketing , we 'll never catch up . nikolas : what exactly has lavery managed to pull off ? tracy : he booked the new formula pickle - lila on `` the chew `` ! nikolas : `` the chew `` ? tracy : you have been living in europe too long . `` the chew `` is a fusion culinary / chat show , the biggest of its kind . do you have any idea the kind of exposure that aj is gon na get from that ? our pickles will be crushed before they ever leave the vine . nikolas : okay , so you 're haranguing me about this because you want me to do what , exactly ? tracy : [ scoffs ] i want you to make sure that aj and his knock - off relish do n't make it on that show ! monica : well , i - i do n't know why aj would n't be answering his phone . michael : yeah . it 's not like him ... unless he had a big date last night . monica : why would you say that ? michael : well , he mentioned that he was gon na try and win back elizabeth webber . monica : oh ! well , she did stop by after ... michael : after ... ? monica : carly . this is n't happening . you and aj did n't -- carly : no ! no , we -- we did n't . i mean , this is not at all what it looks like . monica : oh , really ? oh , really ? because what it looks like is you and my son just had wild sex . monica : dinner , uh ... michael : oh . she stopped by after dinner ? monica : yes ! yes . and , uh ... [ chuckles ] i mean , not that i was eavesdropping or anything , but as he was walking her out , they did seem to be in a pretty good place . michael : oh , well , i 'm happy for him . you know , he deserves somebody great . monica : anybody but your mother . aj : [ panting ] [ sighs ] good . it went to voicemail . it will be very difficult explaining to elizabeth how you wound up with my phone . carly : i ca n't believe i took your phone instead of mine . i must have been so grossed out about the situation . aj : oh , excuse me . you think i 'm the only one who 's not sorry that we slept together ? ! carly : [ whispering ] please keep your voice down ! aj : okay . great . here is your phone . i want you to keep it and yourself far , far away from me . carly : if i never see your repulsive face again , it 'll be too soon . aj : oh , really ? too bad you could n't keep your hands to yourself last night . carly : are you kidding me ? you were slobbering all over me . aj : [ laughs ] wait a second . let 's not pretend for one second that i did n't rock your world . carly : okay . you know what ? we promised that we were not gon na mention that disgusting night ever again ! aj : fine ! i do n't want to relive it , either , especially because elizabeth is giving me a second chance . elizabeth : is everything okay ? patrick : um , morning sickness . elizabeth : morning sickness ? britt : oh , every other woman i know was finished with all that at the end of her first trimester . here i am in the middle of my second , and -- oh , god . oh , god . oh . elizabeth : i thought she was n't keeping the baby . patrick : she changed her mind . felix : what do you mean westbourne changed her mind ? why ? sabrina : apparently , the only reason she was having an abortion was because she thought patrick would n't support her . she thought she 'd be raising the child on her own . felix : and now she thinks she wo n't be ? sabrina : patrick agreed to co - parent . he wants to be responsible for his child , and so britt ... reconsidered her decision to terminate the pregnancy . felix : okay . wait , wait , wait , wait . let me get this straight . she makes patrick cancel his date with you and then drags him down to the doctor 's to hold her hand while she 's having an abortion , and then she changes her mind ? no , girl . i ai n't buying it . sabrina : what do you mean ? felix : come on . we both know what the britch is capable of . this was all an act . she never intended to have that procedure in the first place . olivia : connie came to the metro court . she was looking for carly , but she found sonny instead . and sonny 's been trying to call , but morgan 's not picking up his phone . johnny : i was too late ? something happened to the kid ? olivia : we do n't know that yet . sonny and shawn are flying down to the campus , and he wants to handle this whole situation himself . sonny : you know what , dean ? you could either leave or not . that 's your choice . but i am gon na find out what happened to my son . hawes : mr. corinthos , this university values its peace and quiet . sonny : what about the safety of the students ? do they value that ? hawes : morgan is enrolled at vanderbilt as `` morgan benson . `` we have been completely discreet about your identity as a courtesy to your son to allow morgan to associate with his fellow students without the burden of your ... reputation . and yet , here you are , charging through the dormitory -- sonny : my son 's missing . how many times i got to tell you that ? hawes : morgan has never been in any serious trouble until now . and , quite frankly , this gambling ring that you 've suggested -- well , it 's beyond farfetched . we have no evidence to support that it even exists . i am certain that morgan is in no danger . sonny : okay . i heard that he is . and in my world ... that means a lot . so i suggest that you open that door . hawes : we have a privacy policy at this -- shawn : mr. corinthos asked you nicely to open the door . hawes : fine . but i assure you this is not going to lead to anything . elizabeth : so , britt 's keeping the baby . patrick : yes . elizabeth : how do you feel about that ? patrick : the situation is less than ideal , obviously . but ... it 's her choice . and if she 's gon na keep the baby , that means i 'm gon na be a father , which means i 'm gon na show up . elizabeth : it 's a big adjustment . patrick : when i found out about matt , i was really harsh on my dad . and it 's ironic , because here i am in the exact same position . elizabeth : well , no , patrick . uh , britt may not be the best person for you , but you were n't unfaithful when you slept with her . patrick : elizabeth , i 'm gon na be a father to a child that i did n't plan on having , okay ? and that 's not the baby 's fault , so i do n't want this baby to feel what matt felt -- feeling unwanted and overlooked . so if i 'm gon na be a father , i 'm gon na be the best that i possibly can . elizabeth : i know you will . it 's just , the timing -- patrick : is less than perfect , yes . but that 's life , is n't it ? so what do you do ? you got to adjust . and that 's all britt and i are doing right now . elizabeth : of course . patrick : can you do me a favor ? can you check on her , make sure she 's okay ? elizabeth : yeah , of course . sabrina : are you saying that britt what -- staged the whole thing ? felix : it would n't be the first time . think about it -- the night of the nurses ' ball , britt took over the stage with her ridiculous announcement . `` i 'm pregnant . `` but did patrick come running ? no . he stood right next to you . so what does she do ? she sandbags your date and creates this `` will she or wo n't she ? `` drama down at the women 's clinic . and why -- to get into patrick 's head , make him commit to the kid and reel him in . sabrina : do you really think she 'd go that far ? felix : come on ! this is the wicked witch of the westbourne we 're talking about . check the sky for flying monkeys , because she 'll do anything to sink her claws into patrick . i mean , she paraded around the locker room in her lingerie . and when that did n't work , she ambushed him in the shower . she tried to get you fired . she framed you for cheating . she 's not above using -- sabrina : oh , my god . you 're right . you 're right ! she 'd do anything to get what she wanted . felix : okay . so we 're in agreement ? that woman ai n't nothing but a big - ass fake . elizabeth : patrick , something 's wrong with britt . nikolas : how exactly am i supposed to keep aj from appearing on this , uh , chat show ? tracy : chat / culinary fusion . nikolas : oh . tracy : it 's a dynamic format , and it will give pickle - lila a national platform that will do irreparable harm to our sales . so get busy . make some phone calls . you 're a prince , for god 's sake ! use your influence . nikolas : you 're a quartermaine . call the head of the network yourself . tracy : well , she wo n't take my calls . we showed up at some event in the same dress . it does n't matter . it 's not important . what is important is that aj will get a segment all to himself if we do n't make sure he does n't go on the show . and if that panel of celebrity chefs is impressed with his new and improved pickle - lila , we are cooked ! nikolas : you do have a point there . tracy : so you 'll make the calls ? you 'll get him bumped ? nikolas : yes , yes , i 'll make the call . but ... i have a better idea . why not get us booked on the show instead ? monica : i am so sorry , michael . i should never have said that . michael : oh , you 're entitled to your feelings . but she 's my mom , so , obviously , i feel a little differently . monica : no , i -- really , i - i apologize . i mean , after all , carly is n't all that bad . she gave me you . michael : well , i -- [ chuckles ] i would n't worry about my mom and aj reuniting or anything . they despise each other , okay ? they ca n't even stand to be in the same room without hurling insults . monica : yes , well , alan and i were like that . no . what am i saying ? no . that -- no . uh , that -- that 's completely different . michael : right -- because deep down , you and my grandfather loved each other . mom and aj realized a long time ago that they 're toxic to each other , and there 's no way either of them are going down that path again . carly : elizabeth is giving you another shot . wow . i mean , what is wrong with that girl ? she has a gift for making bad relationship choices . aj : [ chuckles ] uh , you 're in no position to criticize . carly : okay , last night was vile . it does not qualify as a relationship . but elizabeth ? come on ! lucky ? jason while she was married to lucky . nikolas while she was engaged to lucky . that weird zander guy . ric lansing , who was a total psycho . ewen keenan , another total psycho . and worst of all now , there 's you ! aj : i ca n't -- i ca n't believe that you 're talking this way about -- about a woman who saved your daughter 's life . carly : that 's exactly why i feel so bad for her , okay ? elizabeth and i have never been friends , ever . but despite that , when her son was dying , she reached out , and she saved josslyn . so i owe her . you know , i need to tell her about a hideous mistake that -- aj : do n't you even think of telling her what happened between us last night . carly : i meant in general warn her , okay ? relax . i would never tell her , or anybody else , that we -- god , i need more hand sanitizer . aj : okay . listen to me very carefully . you are not gon na mess this up for me . do you understand ? elizabeth is sweet , and she is caring , and she is honest . and -- and it makes me physically ill that -- that while she was deciding whether or not to give me a second chance , you and i were in bed -- carly : keep your voice down ! [ whispering ] i do n't want the whole lobby knowing that we had some disgusting tryst , okay ? aj : excuse me . you think that i want people knowing that we were in bed playing mattress tag ? carly : uh , we have a son together -- that we have a son together . i will take last night to my grave . aj : the sooner , the better . carly : mm - hmm . [ sighs ] johnny : if i 'd have known this racket these guys are running could affect morgan , i would have stepped in sooner . olivia : i know you , john . i know how much you hate sonny . you would do anything to get back at him . johnny : all i 'm trying to do here is help his kid , keep him safe . olivia : if our time together meant anything to you , john ... you will be straight with me . is this some kind of setup ? is sonny walking into a trap ? travis : [ breathing shakily ] look , do n't move . i 'll shoot ! hawes : travis , what are you doing ? put that gun down ! travis : i do n't want to hurt anyone , but i will if i have to ! sonny : travis , travis , you 're morgan 's roommate , right ? travis : why ? sonny : well , i - i do n't want any trouble here . travis : so then leave us alone , all right ? just go , or i 'll shoot , i swear ! shawn : drop the gun , kid . drop it . sonny : carly , it 's me . i - i need to talk to you about morgan . give me a -- [ beep ] sonny : carly ? i do n't know where you are or what you 're doing , but this is serious . call me back -- carly : [ sighs ] come on . sonny : carly , i 've been trying to reach morgan . he 's in serious trouble . where the hell are you ? johnny : you think i 'd use morgan to get back at sonny ? olivia : look what you did to connie . she 's mentally ill , and you did n't care . johnny : okay , it 's true . i used her , but she used me , too . olivia : and that makes it okay ? johnny : no , it does n't . [ sighs ] look -- i should have done better , by a lot of people . but i 'm telling the truth about morgan . olivia : you 've hated sonny for an awfully long time . john , this would n't be the first time you used his kids to get back at him , right ? johnny : i 've done a lot of things -- i 've hurt a lot of people , okay ? but this is not about sonny . this is about carly , and it 's about morgan , who is in a lot of trouble . olivia : if our time together meant anything to you , you will swear to me that you are on the up - and - up right now , that you 've told connie everything you know . johnny : i swear . olivia : okay . okay . good . i just ca n't stand to see sonny get hurt any more . johnny : i thought you were here for morgan . since when are you so concerned about sonny ? shawn : drop the gun , kid . hawes : do what he says , travis . travis : [ shakily ] i ca n't ! they 'll kill me ! sonny : nobody 's gon na kill you . travis : but we got the message . you guys said that you were coming after us . sonny : that was n't me , travis . you -- you -- you might have a lot of enemies , but i 'm not one of them . travis : no . do n't come any closer . i 'll shoot . sonny : no , you wo n't . shawn : sonny , what are you doing ? sonny : just wait a minute . i 'm not here to hurt you . you 're not gon na shoot me , are you ? felix : what 's going on ? patrick : uh , she 's sick , complaining of morning sickness . elizabeth : i found her on the bathroom floor . patrick : i 'm worried it might be something more than just nausea . britt : [ groans ] i think i need some water . patrick : okay . you might be dehydrated . um ... sabrina , do you mind grabbing some water , please ? and could we run a cbc and a chem 20 , please ? felix : on it . patrick : thank you . britt : [ whimpers ] felix : forgive me for prying , but did you actually see britt puking ? elizabeth : no . she -- she was already on the floor . felix : i knew it . elizabeth : what -- britt : [ whimpering ] thank you . the baby 's gon na be okay , right ? patrick : yes , the baby 's gon na be fine . do n't worry about it , okay ? i 'm here . nikolas : we have the better relish . we know it . aj knows it . and if i 'm gon na use my influence ... why not make sure the whole world knows it , too ? tracy : you are so right . we get celebrated chefs salivating over our relish on national tv , our market share will skyrocket ! nikolas : now , when is aj scheduled to be on `` the chew `` ? michael : hey ! i 've been trying to reach you all night . monica : oh , yes ! i told -- i told michael that you turned your phone off when elizabeth arrived . aj : i had it on silent . uh , i - i just picked up duke 's message . i ca n't believe he booked us on `` the chew `` ! i mean , this guy is worth every penny we 're paying him . michael : i got a social media campaign lined up at elq . # picklelila is gon na be trending when the show airs on the east coast . aj : so when did he book us ? michael : actually , that 's why i 've been trying to reach you . nikolas : tomorrow morning ? ! no , that 's -- that 's problematic . even if i do manage to get aj bumped , we wo n't be ready in time . tracy : why not ? i have a jar of it right in my bag . nikolas : no . we -- we can not go on `` the chew `` with a product called `` pickle- tracy . `` tracy : what 's wrong with pickle - tracy ? ! i think it sounds quite euphonious ! never mind . i -- i was a good c.e.o . because i listened to research , and the research says that pickle - tracy is ... a little ... acidic . i - i do n't know why the focus group said that , but never mind . i agreed with the marketing department on a new product name , and it will honor the one person in the world that can compete with my mother for the `` lovable legend `` title . nikolas : i am so afraid to ask . tracy : nikolas , i give you the daddy of all relishes -- pickle - eddie . travis : [ breathing shakily ] shawn : [ sighs ] it 's a fake . hawes : what the hell is going on here ? travis : uh , it 's a prop , from the theater department . sonny : what made you think you needed a gun ? travis : i told you ! i had to protect myself from you ! hawes : i 've heard enough . i 'm calling the police . sonny : no , i do n't think you want to do that , dean . hawes : you 've left me no choice . sonny : you heard the kid ! it 's a fake gun ! hawes : yes ... but his is n't . you brought a loaded weapon onto this campus , and i do n't care what your intentions were . you should both be thrown in prison . olivia : i am here about morgan . according to you , he is in serious danger , so i 'm also worried about sonny , the same way i 'd be worried about any parent whose kid was in trouble . johnny : sonny 's not `` any parent . `` olivia : no , sonny 's a target , which makes morgan a target by extension , which makes the whole situation even worse . johnny : i - i just do n't remember you two being so , uh , bonded , is all . olivia : bo -- sonny and i share a child , john ! johnny : yeah . olivia : even if that child happens to be a grown man , we 're always gon na have a connection ! johnny : yeah , i just do n't recall the feelings being that , um ... olivia : what ? johnny : ... intense . olivia : what the hell are they feeding you in here ? you 're losing your mind . johnny : i know what i see . olivia : well , then you need to get your eyes checked . johnny : [ chuckles ] wow , olivia . some things never change , huh ? defense is the best offense . olivia : what -- we 're playing football now ? johnny : connie told me that she left sonny . steve 's doing time . olivia : what 's your point ? johnny : sonny 's alone . you 're alone . you sure nothing 's going on between you two ? olivia : [ sighs ] sonny : i do n't think you want to involve the police . hawes : are you threatening me ? sonny : no . why would you think that ? hawes : your reputation , mr. corinthos . your line of work . sonny : i 'm a businessman , in a very bad business . i do n't think you want the cops crawling all over your campus hearing about the gambling problems , 'cause i would have to tell them the truth , dean . and it would be a very bad pr nightmare . would n't it , shawn ? shawn : [ chuckles ] hawes : what do you want ? sonny : i just want to talk to the kid , ask him a few questions . you 're welcome to supervise if you 'd like . hawes : all right . i will supervise . sonny : good ! travis : uh , you 're morgan 's father ? sonny : call me sonny , travis . travis : uh , sonny , i - i - i thought that you were those guys who ran the poker game . sonny : yeah . yeah , i heard about them . uh , maybe , uh , you can give me the website , and i 'll track them down and figure out what 's going on here . travis : it 's -- it 's not a website . sonny : what do you mean ? travis : well , it 's -- it 's a shareware program , you know , with no access , so you have to search the net for the code -- on posting boards , open - source bins . sonny : okay . these guys who sent you the message -- what did they want ? travis : uh , i mean , the game was for real money , you know -- small bets at first , and -- and we kept winning . it was great . and -- and , you know , the more you won , the higher stakes you were allowed to bet . and -- and then it went bad . um ... morgan and i , we -- we owed a lot . sonny : how much , travis ? travis : um ... $ 50,000 ? shawn : [ scoffs ] you 'd have to be playing a lot to rack up that kind of debt . travis : oh , we did n't have it . i mean , morgan already burned through his allowance for the quarter , and i 'm on scholarship . sonny : where 's morgan now ? travis : after the guys said that they were coming to see us , um ... he ran . carly : come on , sonny . pick up . [ ringing , beep ] sonny : about time . carly : morgan 's in trouble . what happened ? sonny : uh , he 's , uh -- you know , he started playing poker . he got in over his head . i 'm -- i 'm -- i 'm here right now , though . carly : okay . he 's safe , right ? so we 'll just pay back whatever he owes , and he can work it off this summer ! where is he ? let me -- let me talk to him . sonny : morgan 's not here . he -- he disappeared . aj : so duke has us booked on `` the chew `` for tomorrow , huh ? wow . you , uh -- you really think we 're ready ? michael : yeah . we 'll fly out today , spend the night in new york . duke 's sending over the jars of relish to the hosts . aj : these guys are major foodies . michael : yeah . our spin 's gon na be , while it 's not the same recipe that was used when everyone went crazy for it in port charles in the ' 80s , it is a new and improved version that 's updated for today 's tastes . monica : my , someone has been spending time in marketing ! aj : how about this kid , huh ? [ chuckles ] michael : we got our own great - tasting relish , plus the brand - name `` pickle- lila `` that everyone loves . who could top that ? nikolas : [ sighs ] `` pickle ... eddie . `` tracy : it 's perfect , is n't it ? keeps the brand in the family , and it has a certain wise , senior persona . nikolas : you 're not worried about any copyright infringements or anything like that ? tracy : oh , yeah . i 'd like to see aj claim my father as intellectual property . nikolas : tracy , although i respected edward , he did n't exactly exude the warmth and wholesomeness that lila did . you know what i mean ? tracy : research disagrees . now , i admit my father was a bit of a curmudgeon , but is n't that the essence of pickle - ness ? nikolas : [ scoffs ] tracy : the slightly sour disposition ? a little bite ? nikolas : [ chuckles ] uh , maybe . tracy : no `` maybe `` about it . this is your chance to shut aj down . nikolas : no , that 's more your concern than mine . tracy : really ? nikolas : yes . tracy : i do n't think you need to put up with aj 's bluster any more than i do ! and ... what about elizabeth ? what if aj manages to convince her ... that he 's a worthwhile human being ? nikolas : no . i do not see that as a likely outcome for elizabeth . [ chuckles ] tracy : do n't be so sure . aj has a gift for dragging people down around him . the sooner aj 's life implodes and he staggers off into the sunset ... the better it 's gon na be for elizabeth . nikolas : you do have a valid point there . tracy : let 's face it , nikolas . you and i have a lot invested in seeing aj annihilated . patrick : as soon as we find out if you 're hydrated , we 'll go from there , all right ? felix : nurse santiago , can i see you for a moment ? patrick : you got to stay hydrated , britt . britt : i know . i know . it 's just a bad week . with the stress at the clinic , and then the hostility between you and me , i just -- i got distracted . patrick : all right . well , no more of that , okay ? i do n't want our issues endangering the baby 's health . no more hostility . britt : thank you . w - would you mind calling my ob ? i - i had an appointment the other day , and i should probably keep her up - to - date on -- on what 's happening . patrick : all right . sabrina : so you know for a fact that she 's faking the morning sickness ? felix : elizabeth never saw her puking . when she came in , britt was already on the floor . i mean , that 's amateur hour . i did a better job when i wanted to skip school . sabrina : oh , my god . you 're right . felix : did n't i call it at the nurses ' ball ? she 's gon na use this pregnancy to tie patrick up in knots . between the guilt and the staged medical crises , he wo n't know which way is up . sabrina : we ca n't let her get away with this . patrick : let who ... get away with what ? olivia : you do n't know what you 're talking about . johnny : no ? olivia : no ! sonny 's been having a really hard time , okay ? jason died . connie dumped him . johnny : yeah . connie 's your cousin , right ? now you 're comforting her ex ? olivia : okay -- you may not realize this , but lulu was missing for quite a while . dante went to find her . the two of them were gone for days . we had no idea if they were alive or dead . johnny : no , i - i did n't know that . i 'm sorry . that must have been ... terrible for you . olivia : it -- it was . but it -- but it 's okay now , thank god . but it 's just been , like , one crisis after another for sonny ! then brenda came back and started all kind of trouble with michael , and -- johnny : michael ? olivia : and now morgan ? he 's just -- he 's having a really , really hard time , and -- and he needs ... a friend . and i 've always been that to him . and that 's all it is . johnny : whatever you say . sonny : the game was rigged . now morgan owes , uh , some bookies more money than he can pay , and he -- instead of telling us , he ran . carly : he 's never been on his own before ! sonny , he has no idea how to take care of himself ! sonny : well , i just got to find him before it gets worse . carly : i 'm on my way , okay ? sonny : no , no , do n't . you 're not any good here . you stay in port charles . carly : what are you talking about ? i 'm not gon na sit around here while my son is missing ! sonny : listen , carly . he 's been gone for like -- you know , since yesterday . he could be anywhere . i 'm just hoping that he heads home , and then you 're there , and , you know , it 'll all work out . carly : you 're right . you 're right . i -- [ sighs ] okay . but you promise me that you will call me the second you hear anything ? sonny : i will . nikolas : it 's not terrible . tracy : `` not terrible `` ? is that the best you can do ? nikolas : and if it were coming from edward ? tracy : it would be high praise . nikolas : exactly . tracy : so you 're in ? nikolas : well , you , uh -- you do make a good case . i 'll say that . i mean , who in their right mind would choose what aj 's offering over what i could give them ? tracy : what we can give them . nikolas : right . sure . tracy : okay ! so ... get busy , prince charming . make a few calls . get pickle- eddie on that show . aj : i think you 're right . it 's either now or never . monica : well , this is exciting ! you 're going to be on television , and no one is dead or going to prison . aj : i think you ought to get used to it . monica : that would be nice . aj : yeah . okay , look ! um ... we 'll leave this afternoon . once everything 's prepped , we 'll meet back here . michael : okay . aj : all right . and , michael , one more thing . nice work , kid . monica : mm - hmm . michael : thanks . monica : aj ? aj : mom , you know , none of this -- none of it would have happened without you in my corner . monica : well , that 's -- that 's lovely to say , but that 's not why i stopped you . i think you should call elizabeth . aj : i -- you know , mom , i - i really would like to just forget everything that happened last night . i mean , if i call elizabeth , and i tell her what -- monica : i think -- i think that you and elizabeth really can work , if you put in the hard work . aj : well , what do you think i should do ? i mean ... monica : well ... new york is one of the most romantic cites in the world ! surely you could think of something . elizabeth : okay , i 'll have the lab put a rush on this . britt : [ gasps ] elizabeth : here . hold this . britt : do you have any advice ? i - i 've never been pregnant before . [ sniffles , whimpers ] elizabeth : the hospital offers classes for new moms . i 'm sure you can schedule something . britt : i guess i was hoping for something a bit more personal . i mean , you 've been through it more than enough times , after all . [ breathing shakily ] felix : uh , sabrina was just mentioning that epiphany 's putting all us newbies on the night shift . patrick : she 's putting you on the night shift ? sabrina : it 's -- it 's just a rumor . patrick : well , the night shift 's a rite of passage . i did two years of it myself . um ... can you do me a favor ? i 've got to go call britt 's ob . i know she 's not your favorite person , but can you keep an eye on her for a second , please ? sabrina : i 'd be happy to . patrick : thanks . britt : was it something i said ? elizabeth : i 've got to get this to the lab . oh , good . you 're here ! well , she 's all yours . britt : [ moans ] thank you so much , sabrina , for all your help . you know , this pregnancy has been so difficult ! sabrina : save it , britt . i know you 're faking . elizabeth : can you put a rush on this , please ? man : yeah . elizabeth : thank you . hey ! i tried calling you ! aj : what 's the rest of your day look like ? elizabeth : uh , my shift is over right now . you want to grab some lunch ? aj : i was actually thinking of something that might , uh , take a little more time . elizabeth : oh , yeah ? aj : yeah . elizabeth : like what ? aj : come with me to new york . nikolas : no , i understand . and thank you for your consideration . okay . tracy : so ... ? we heading to new york ? did you get my nephew and his ersatz relish knocked off the show ? nikolas : yes and no . tracy : [ chuckles ] nikolas , what does that mean ? nikolas : the producers of `` the chew `` are somewhat more ethical than i 've encountered in the past . i 'm sorry -- i was n't able to get aj dumped from the show . tracy : what ? nikolas : they 've made a commitment to pickle - lila , and ... intend to honor it . tracy : that 's it . we 're finished ! with the head - start that appearance on that show is gon na give pickle - lila , even my nephew wo n't be able to screw it up ! nikolas : no , no , no ! not exactly ! we were able to reach a compromise ... that serves our interests without compromising the integrity of the show . tracy : spit it out ! nikolas : we 're booked on the show . it 's gon na be a surprise taste - off . tracy : an ambush ! i love it ! nikolas : [ stammers ] yes , and so do the producers . i mean , it is ... may sweeps , after all . tracy : oh , yes ! this is brilliant ! he 's gon na be humiliated on national television . and the whole country will finally see ... whose relish reigns supreme . michael : mom ? carly : hey . michael : hey . carly : hey ! what are you doing here ? michael : i was checking in . i want to let you know i 'm -- i 'm flying to new york tonight , uh , with aj . carly : oh . okay ! thanks for telling me . all right . [ chuckles ] michael : mom , are you okay ? carly : have you talked to your brother ? michael : morgan ? no , i have n't . why ? carly : [ sighs ] michael : mom , what 's going on ? carly : there 's something i have to tell you . sonny : i think i have a way to track down morgan . hawes : i need to call the authorities about this gambling ring . i suggest you leave campus before they arrive . needless to say , morgan 's status as an undergraduate here is in question . sonny : my son 's not coming back here . you think i 'd give you another dime when you ca n't keep your students safe ? come on , dean ! he upsets me . you know what i mean ? morgan , okay ? um ... get his phone . have spinelli track down whatever needs to be -- shawn : okay . sonny : you know what i mean ? shawn : yeah . travis : uh , mr. sonny ? sonny : yeah , travis ? travis : i may know something about where morgan went . olivia : sonny and i used to play stickball out in the street ! and then we had an adolescent romance that resulted in an amazing human being , for which i will be eternally grateful . anything else ? it 's not happening . in the here and now , sonny and i are just friends . johnny : keep telling yourself that . olivia : what is your problem ? ! johnny : i do n't want to see you get hurt ! olivia : i 'm fine . but thank you . i should go . johnny : let me know what happens with morgan , huh ? olivia : i will . hey , um ... [ voice breaking ] i 'm sorry for accusing you of setting sonny up . johnny : we both know it 's not outside the realm of possibility . olivia : you 're a good person deep down . i know that . johnny : thanks for believing that . olivia : hey , if you need anything in here , i want to hear about it , okay ? who knows ? maybe i 'll even come back for a visit . johnny : i 'd like that . olivia : you take care of yourself , okay ? johnny : you , too . olivia : i do n't need any more bad news . [ door closes ] guard : let 's go , zacchara . visiting hours are over . britt : faking ? what are you talking about , sabrina ? sabrina : everything about this pregnancy is fake ... other than the baby itself . oh , yeah . you planned the whole thing out to lure patrick back into your arms , staging the big reveal at the nurses ' ball , pretending to want an abortion just to play with his emotions , and now you 're faking morning sickness ? come on , britt . you 're an ob . you of all people know this is exactly what every pregnant woman goes through . oh , man . you are playing patrick , and he is falling for it again -- hook , line , and sinker ! [ door opens ] britt : patrick . [ clears throat ] | tracy tells nikolas that duke lavery has booked the new formula pickle - lila on `` the chew . `` nikolas suggests that instead of preventing aj from going on the show that they book their own appearance since they have the superior product . nikolas says they are not going on the show with a product called `` pickle- tracy . `` she suggests `` pickle - eddie , `` named for her father . he is not able to convince the show to cancel aj 's appearance , but that they agreed to have them on as well for a surprise taste - off . | <s>[INST] monica : michael ! what a lovely surprise . just in time to join me for breakfast . michael : uh , actually , uh , maybe some other time . uh , i was -- i was wondering if you 've seen aj . i have some news about elq , and i 've been trying to reach him since last night . and i do n't know why he 's not returning my phone calls . do you have any idea what he 's been up to ? [ indistinct conversations ] carly : [ sighs ] aj : [ laughing ] carly : [ groans ] okay . [ telephone ringing ] carly : [ groans ] okay . [ exhales sharply ] all right . [ cell phone ringing ] carly : what the ... aj : do n't answer that ! aj 's voicemail : hi . this is aj . sorry to miss your call . leave a message . [ beep ] elizabeth : hey , it 's me -- elizabeth . uh , i 'm glad we worked things out last night . i 'm really looking forward to seeing you . call me . [ sighs ] tracy : you have not heard a word i 've said . nikolas : sorry ? tracy : my spies at elq have reported back . the relish war 's final battle has begun . pickle - lila fired its first shot . [ indistinct conversations ] felix : what did patrick say when he got home ? i know he does n't want the baby . but still , he must have been a little upset . you know , about britt 's abortion . sabrina : there was n't one . britt : [ sighs , groans ] patrick : you okay ? britt : no . i do n't think so . johnny : [ chuckles ] look who 's here . olivia : it 's been a long time , john . johnny : connie told you about morgan ? olivia : yeah . johnny : is carly taking care of it ? olivia : no . but do n't worry . sonny 's on it . hawes : mr. corinthos , please ! you ca n't just barge in here ! sonny : morgan , you in there ? hawes : i already told you -- he is not on campus . sonny : then where is he ? 'cause i 'm gon na find out what happened to my son , no matter what it takes . nikolas : i do n't understand . neither product reaches mass market until the end of the month . tracy : by then , it 'll be too late . duke lavery has managed to pull off a major publicity coup . by then , we 'll be so far behind in marketing , we 'll never catch up . nikolas : what exactly has lavery managed to pull off ? tracy : he booked the new formula pickle - lila on `` the chew `` ! nikolas : `` the chew `` ? tracy : you have been living in europe too long . `` the chew `` is a fusion culinary / chat show , the biggest of its kind . do you have any idea the kind of exposure that aj is gon na get from that ? our pickles will be crushed before they ever leave the vine . nikolas : okay , so you 're haranguing me about this because you want me to do what , exactly ? tracy : [ scoffs ] i want you to make sure that aj and his knock - off relish do n't make it on that show ! monica : well , i - i do n't know why aj would n't be answering his phone . michael : yeah . it 's not like him ... unless he had a big date last night . monica : why would you say that ? michael : well , he mentioned that he was gon na try and win back elizabeth webber . monica : oh ! well , she did stop by after ... michael : after ... ? monica : carly . this is n't happening . you and aj did n't -- carly : no ! no , we -- we did n't . i mean , this is not at all what it looks like . monica : oh , really ? oh , really ? because what it looks like is you and my son just had wild sex . monica : dinner , uh ... michael : oh . she stopped by after dinner ? monica : yes ! yes . and , uh ... [ chuckles ] i mean , not that i was eavesdropping or anything , but as he was walking her out , they did seem to be in a pretty good place . michael : oh , well , i 'm happy for him . you know , he deserves somebody great . monica : anybody but your mother . aj : [ panting ] [ sighs ] good . it went to voicemail . it will be very difficult explaining to elizabeth how you wound up with my phone . carly : i ca n't believe i took your phone instead of mine . i must have been so grossed out about the situation . aj : oh , excuse me . you think i 'm the only one who 's not sorry that we slept together ? ! carly : [ whispering ] please keep your voice down ! aj : okay . great . here is your phone . i want you to keep it and yourself far , far away from me . carly : if i never see your repulsive face again , it 'll be too soon . aj : oh , really ? too bad you could n't keep your hands to yourself last night . carly : are you kidding me ? you were slobbering all over me . aj : [ laughs ] wait a second . let 's not pretend for one second that i did n't rock your world . carly : okay . you know what ? we promised that we were not gon na mention that disgusting night ever again ! aj : fine ! i do n't want to relive it , either , especially because elizabeth is giving me a second chance . elizabeth : is everything okay ? patrick : um , morning sickness . elizabeth : morning sickness ? britt : oh , every other woman i know was finished with all that at the end of her first trimester . here i am in the middle of my second , and -- oh , god . oh , god . oh . elizabeth : i thought she was n't keeping the baby . patrick : she changed her mind . felix : what do you mean westbourne changed her mind ? why ? sabrina : apparently , the only reason she was having an abortion was because she thought patrick would n't support her . she thought she 'd be raising the child on her own . felix : and now she thinks she wo n't be ? sabrina : patrick agreed to co - parent . he wants to be responsible for his child , and so britt ... reconsidered her decision to terminate the pregnancy . felix : okay . wait , wait , wait , wait . let me get this straight . she makes patrick cancel his date with you and then drags him down to the doctor 's to hold her hand while she 's having an abortion , and then she changes her mind ? no , girl . i ai n't buying it . sabrina : what do you mean ? felix : come on . we both know what the britch is capable of . this was all an act . she never intended to have that procedure in the first place . olivia : connie came to the metro court . she was looking for carly , but she found sonny instead . and sonny 's been trying to call , but morgan 's not picking up his phone . johnny : i was too late ? something happened to the kid ? olivia : we do n't know that yet . sonny and shawn are flying down to the campus , and he wants to handle this whole situation himself . sonny : you know what , dean ? you could either leave or not . that 's your choice . but i am gon na find out what happened to my son . hawes : mr. corinthos , this university values its peace and quiet . sonny : what about the safety of the students ? do they value that ? hawes : morgan is enrolled at vanderbilt as `` morgan benson . `` we have been completely discreet about your identity as a courtesy to your son to allow morgan to associate with his fellow students without the burden of your ... reputation . and yet , here you are , charging through the dormitory -- sonny : my son 's missing . how many times i got to tell you that ? hawes : morgan has never been in any serious trouble until now . and , quite frankly , this gambling ring that you 've suggested -- well , it 's beyond farfetched . we have no evidence to support that it even exists . i am certain that morgan is in no danger . sonny : okay . i heard that he is . and in my world ... that means a lot . so i suggest that you open that door . hawes : we have a privacy policy at this -- shawn : mr. corinthos asked you nicely to open the door . hawes : fine . but i assure you this is not going to lead to anything . elizabeth : so , britt 's keeping the baby . patrick : yes . elizabeth : how do you feel about that ? patrick : the situation is less than ideal , obviously . but ... it 's her choice . and if she 's gon na keep the baby , that means i 'm gon na be a father , which means i 'm gon na show up . elizabeth : it 's a big adjustment . patrick : when i found out about matt , i was really harsh on my dad . and it 's ironic , because here i am in the exact same position . elizabeth : well , no , patrick . uh , britt may not be the best person for you , but you were n't unfaithful when you slept with her . patrick : elizabeth , i 'm gon na be a father to a child that i did n't plan on having , okay ? and that 's not the baby 's fault , so i do n't want this baby to feel what matt felt -- feeling unwanted and overlooked . so if i 'm gon na be a father , i 'm gon na be the best that i possibly can . elizabeth : i know you will . it 's just , the timing -- patrick : is less than perfect , yes . but that 's life , is n't it ? so what do you do ? you got to adjust . and that 's all britt and i are doing right now . elizabeth : of course . patrick : can you do me a favor ? can you check on her , make sure she 's okay ? elizabeth : yeah , of course . sabrina : are you saying that britt what -- staged the whole thing ? felix : it would n't be the first time . think about it -- the night of the nurses ' ball , britt took over the stage with her ridiculous announcement . `` i 'm pregnant . `` but did patrick come running ? no . he stood right next to you . so what does she do ? she sandbags your date and creates this `` will she or wo n't she ? `` drama down at the women 's clinic . and why -- to get into patrick 's head , make him commit to the kid and reel him in . sabrina : do you really think she 'd go that far ? felix : come on ! this is the wicked witch of the westbourne we 're talking about . check the sky for flying monkeys , because she 'll do anything to sink her claws into patrick . i mean , she paraded around the locker room in her lingerie . and when that did n't work , she ambushed him in the shower . she tried to get you fired . she framed you for cheating . she 's not above using -- sabrina : oh , my god . you 're right . you 're right ! she 'd do anything to get what she wanted . felix : okay . so we 're in agreement ? that woman ai n't nothing but a big - ass fake . elizabeth : patrick , something 's wrong with britt . nikolas : how exactly am i supposed to keep aj from appearing on this , uh , chat show ? tracy : chat / culinary fusion . nikolas : oh . tracy : it 's a dynamic format , and it will give pickle - lila a national platform that will do irreparable harm to our sales . so get busy . make some phone calls . you 're a prince , for god 's sake ! use your influence . nikolas : you 're a quartermaine . call the head of the network yourself . tracy : well , she wo n't take my calls . we showed up at some event in the same dress . it does n't matter . it 's not important . what is important is that aj will get a segment all to himself if we do n't make sure he does n't go on the show . and if that panel of celebrity chefs is impressed with his new and improved pickle - lila , we are cooked ! nikolas : you do have a point there . tracy : so you 'll make the calls ? you 'll get him bumped ? nikolas : yes , yes , i 'll make the call . but ... i have a better idea . why not get us booked on the show instead ? monica : i am so sorry , michael . i should never have said that . michael : oh , you 're entitled to your feelings . but she 's my mom , so , obviously , i feel a little differently . monica : no , i -- really , i - i apologize . i mean , after all , carly is n't all that bad . she gave me you . michael : well , i -- [ chuckles ] i would n't worry about my mom and aj reuniting or anything . they despise each other , okay ? they ca n't even stand to be in the same room without hurling insults . monica : yes , well , alan and i were like that . no . what am i saying ? no . that -- no . uh , that -- that 's completely different . michael : right -- because deep down , you and my grandfather loved each other . mom and aj realized a long time ago that they 're toxic to each other , and there 's no way either of them are going down that path again . carly : elizabeth is giving you another shot . wow . i mean , what is wrong with that girl ? she has a gift for making bad relationship choices . aj : [ chuckles ] uh , you 're in no position to criticize . carly : okay , last night was vile . it does not qualify as a relationship . but elizabeth ? come on ! lucky ? jason while she was married to lucky . nikolas while she was engaged to lucky . that weird zander guy . ric lansing , who was a total psycho . ewen keenan , another total psycho . and worst of all now , there 's you ! aj : i ca n't -- i ca n't believe that you 're talking this way about -- about a woman who saved your daughter 's life . carly : that 's exactly why i feel so bad for her , okay ? elizabeth and i have never been friends , ever . but despite that , when her son was dying , she reached out , and she saved josslyn . so i owe her . you know , i need to tell her about a hideous mistake that -- aj : do n't you even think of telling her what happened between us last night . carly : i meant in general warn her , okay ? relax . i would never tell her , or anybody else , that we -- god , i need more hand sanitizer . aj : okay . listen to me very carefully . you are not gon na mess this up for me . do you understand ? elizabeth is sweet , and she is caring , and she is honest . and -- and it makes me physically ill that -- that while she was deciding whether or not to give me a second chance , you and i were in bed -- carly : keep your voice down ! [ whispering ] i do n't want the whole lobby knowing that we had some disgusting tryst , okay ? aj : excuse me . you think that i want people knowing that we were in bed playing mattress tag ? carly : uh , we have a son together -- that we have a son together . i will take last night to my grave . aj : the sooner , the better . carly : mm - hmm . [ sighs ] johnny : if i 'd have known this racket these guys are running could affect morgan , i would have stepped in sooner . olivia : i know you , john . i know how much you hate sonny . you would do anything to get back at him . johnny : all i 'm trying to do here is help his kid , keep him safe . olivia : if our time together meant anything to you , john ... you will be straight with me . is this some kind of setup ? is sonny walking into a trap ? travis : [ breathing shakily ] look , do n't move . i 'll shoot ! hawes : travis , what are you doing ? put that gun down ! travis : i do n't want to hurt anyone , but i will if i have to ! sonny : travis , travis , you 're morgan 's roommate , right ? travis : why ? sonny : well , i - i do n't want any trouble here . travis : so then leave us alone , all right ? just go , or i 'll shoot , i swear ! shawn : drop the gun , kid . drop it . sonny : carly , it 's me . i - i need to talk to you about morgan . give me a -- [ beep ] sonny : carly ? i do n't know where you are or what you 're doing , but this is serious . call me back -- carly : [ sighs ] come on . sonny : carly , i 've been trying to reach morgan . he 's in serious trouble . where the hell are you ? johnny : you think i 'd use morgan to get back at sonny ? olivia : look what you did to connie . she 's mentally ill , and you did n't care . johnny : okay , it 's true . i used her , but she used me , too . olivia : and that makes it okay ? johnny : no , it does n't . [ sighs ] look -- i should have done better , by a lot of people . but i 'm telling the truth about morgan . olivia : you 've hated sonny for an awfully long time . john , this would n't be the first time you used his kids to get back at him , right ? johnny : i 've done a lot of things -- i 've hurt a lot of people , okay ? but this is not about sonny . this is about carly , and it 's about morgan , who is in a lot of trouble . olivia : if our time together meant anything to you , you will swear to me that you are on the up - and - up right now , that you 've told connie everything you know . johnny : i swear . olivia : okay . okay . good . i just ca n't stand to see sonny get hurt any more . johnny : i thought you were here for morgan . since when are you so concerned about sonny ? shawn : drop the gun , kid . hawes : do what he says , travis . travis : [ shakily ] i ca n't ! they 'll kill me ! sonny : nobody 's gon na kill you . travis : but we got the message . you guys said that you were coming after us . sonny : that was n't me , travis . you -- you -- you might have a lot of enemies , but i 'm not one of them . travis : no . do n't come any closer . i 'll shoot . sonny : no , you wo n't . shawn : sonny , what are you doing ? sonny : just wait a minute . i 'm not here to hurt you . you 're not gon na shoot me , are you ? felix : what 's going on ? patrick : uh , she 's sick , complaining of morning sickness . elizabeth : i found her on the bathroom floor . patrick : i 'm worried it might be something more than just nausea . britt : [ groans ] i think i need some water . patrick : okay . you might be dehydrated . um ... sabrina , do you mind grabbing some water , please ? and could we run a cbc and a chem 20 , please ? felix : on it . patrick : thank you . britt : [ whimpers ] felix : forgive me for prying , but did you actually see britt puking ? elizabeth : no . she -- she was already on the floor . felix : i knew it . elizabeth : what -- britt : [ whimpering ] thank you . the baby 's gon na be okay , right ? patrick : yes , the baby 's gon na be fine . do n't worry about it , okay ? i 'm here . nikolas : we have the better relish . we know it . aj knows it . and if i 'm gon na use my influence ... why not make sure the whole world knows it , too ? tracy : you are so right . we get celebrated chefs salivating over our relish on national tv , our market share will skyrocket ! nikolas : now , when is aj scheduled to be on `` the chew `` ? michael : hey ! i 've been trying to reach you all night . monica : oh , yes ! i told -- i told michael that you turned your phone off when elizabeth arrived . aj : i had it on silent . uh , i - i just picked up duke 's message . i ca n't believe he booked us on `` the chew `` ! i mean , this guy is worth every penny we 're paying him . michael : i got a social media campaign lined up at elq . # picklelila is gon na be trending when the show airs on the east coast . aj : so when did he book us ? michael : actually , that 's why i 've been trying to reach you . nikolas : tomorrow morning ? ! no , that 's -- that 's problematic . even if i do manage to get aj bumped , we wo n't be ready in time . tracy : why not ? i have a jar of it right in my bag . nikolas : no . we -- we can not go on `` the chew `` with a product called `` pickle- tracy . `` tracy : what 's wrong with pickle - tracy ? ! i think it sounds quite euphonious ! never mind . i -- i was a good c.e.o . because i listened to research , and the research says that pickle - tracy is ... a little ... acidic . i - i do n't know why the focus group said that , but never mind . i agreed with the marketing department on a new product name , and it will honor the one person in the world that can compete with my mother for the `` lovable legend `` title . nikolas : i am so afraid to ask . tracy : nikolas , i give you the daddy of all relishes -- pickle - eddie . travis : [ breathing shakily ] shawn : [ sighs ] it 's a fake . hawes : what the hell is going on here ? travis : uh , it 's a prop , from the theater department . sonny : what made you think you needed a gun ? travis : i told you ! i had to protect myself from you ! hawes : i 've heard enough . i 'm calling the police . sonny : no , i do n't think you want to do that , dean . hawes : you 've left me no choice . sonny : you heard the kid ! it 's a fake gun ! hawes : yes ... but his is n't . you brought a loaded weapon onto this campus , and i do n't care what your intentions were . you should both be thrown in prison . olivia : i am here about morgan . according to you , he is in serious danger , so i 'm also worried about sonny , the same way i 'd be worried about any parent whose kid was in trouble . johnny : sonny 's not `` any parent . `` olivia : no , sonny 's a target , which makes morgan a target by extension , which makes the whole situation even worse . johnny : i - i just do n't remember you two being so , uh , bonded , is all . olivia : bo -- sonny and i share a child , john ! johnny : yeah . olivia : even if that child happens to be a grown man , we 're always gon na have a connection ! johnny : yeah , i just do n't recall the feelings being that , um ... olivia : what ? johnny : ... intense . olivia : what the hell are they feeding you in here ? you 're losing your mind . johnny : i know what i see . olivia : well , then you need to get your eyes checked . johnny : [ chuckles ] wow , olivia . some things never change , huh ? defense is the best offense . olivia : what -- we 're playing football now ? johnny : connie told me that she left sonny . steve 's doing time . olivia : what 's your point ? johnny : sonny 's alone . you 're alone . you sure nothing 's going on between you two ? olivia : [ sighs ] sonny : i do n't think you want to involve the police . hawes : are you threatening me ? sonny : no . why would you think that ? hawes : your reputation , mr. corinthos . your line of work . sonny : i 'm a businessman , in a very bad business . i do n't think you want the cops crawling all over your campus hearing about the gambling problems , 'cause i would have to tell them the truth , dean . and it would be a very bad pr nightmare . would n't it , shawn ? shawn : [ chuckles ] hawes : what do you want ? sonny : i just want to talk to the kid , ask him a few questions . you 're welcome to supervise if you 'd like . hawes : all right . i will supervise . sonny : good ! travis : uh , you 're morgan 's father ?

travis : well , it 's -- it 's a shareware program , you know , with no access , so you have to search the net for the code -- on posting boards , open - source bins . sonny : okay . these guys who sent you the message -- what did they want ? travis : uh , i mean , the game was for real money , you know -- small bets at first , and -- and we kept winning . it was great . and -- and , you know , the more you won , the higher stakes you were allowed to bet . and -- and then it went bad . um ... morgan and i , we -- we owed a lot . sonny : how much , travis ? travis : um ... $ 50,000 ? shawn : [ scoffs ] you 'd have to be playing a lot to rack up that kind of debt . travis : oh , we did n't have it . i mean , morgan already burned through his allowance for the quarter , and i 'm on scholarship . sonny : where 's morgan now ? travis : after the guys said that they were coming to see us , um ... he ran . carly : come on , sonny . pick up . [ ringing , beep ] sonny : about time . carly : morgan 's in trouble . what happened ? sonny : uh , he 's , uh -- you know , he started playing poker . he got in over his head . i 'm -- i 'm -- i 'm here right now , though . carly : okay . he 's safe , right ? so we 'll just pay back whatever he owes , and he can work it off this summer ! where is he ? let me -- let me talk to him . sonny : morgan 's not here . he -- he disappeared . aj : so duke has us booked on `` the chew `` for tomorrow , huh ? wow . you , uh -- you really think we 're ready ? michael : yeah . we 'll fly out today , spend the night in new york . duke 's sending over the jars of relish to the hosts . aj : these guys are major foodies . michael : yeah . our spin 's gon na be , while it 's not the same recipe that was used when everyone went crazy for it in port charles in the ' 80s , it is a new and improved version that 's updated for today 's tastes . monica : my , someone has been spending time in marketing ! aj : how about this kid , huh ? [ chuckles ] michael : we got our own great - tasting relish , plus the brand - name `` pickle- lila `` that everyone loves . who could top that ? nikolas : [ sighs ] `` pickle ... eddie . `` tracy : it 's perfect , is n't it ? keeps the brand in the family , and it has a certain wise , senior persona . nikolas : you 're not worried about any copyright infringements or anything like that ? tracy : oh , yeah . i 'd like to see aj claim my father as intellectual property . nikolas : tracy , although i respected edward , he did n't exactly exude the warmth and wholesomeness that lila did . you know what i mean ? tracy : research disagrees . now , i admit my father was a bit of a curmudgeon , but is n't that the essence of pickle - ness ? nikolas : [ scoffs ] tracy : the slightly sour disposition ? a little bite ? nikolas : [ chuckles ] uh , maybe . tracy : no `` maybe `` about it . this is your chance to shut aj down . nikolas : no , that 's more your concern than mine . tracy : really ? nikolas : yes . tracy : i do n't think you need to put up with aj 's bluster any more than i do ! and ... what about elizabeth ? what if aj manages to convince her ... that he 's a worthwhile human being ? nikolas : no . i do not see that as a likely outcome for elizabeth . [ chuckles ] tracy : do n't be so sure . aj has a gift for dragging people down around him . the sooner aj 's life implodes and he staggers off into the sunset ... the better it 's gon na be for elizabeth . nikolas : you do have a valid point there . tracy : let 's face it , nikolas . you and i have a lot invested in seeing aj annihilated . patrick : as soon as we find out if you 're hydrated , we 'll go from there , all right ? felix : nurse santiago , can i see you for a moment ? patrick : you got to stay hydrated , britt . britt : i know . i know . it 's just a bad week . with the stress at the clinic , and then the hostility between you and me , i just -- i got distracted . patrick : all right . well , no more of that , okay ? i do n't want our issues endangering the baby 's health . no more hostility . britt : thank you . w - would you mind calling my ob ? i - i had an appointment the other day , and i should probably keep her up - to - date on -- on what 's happening . patrick : all right . sabrina : so you know for a fact that she 's faking the morning sickness ? felix : elizabeth never saw her puking . when she came in , britt was already on the floor . i mean , that 's amateur hour . i did a better job when i wanted to skip school . sabrina : oh , my god . you 're right . felix : did n't i call it at the nurses ' ball ? she 's gon na use this pregnancy to tie patrick up in knots . between the guilt and the staged medical crises , he wo n't know which way is up . sabrina : we ca n't let her get away with this . patrick : let who ... get away with what ? olivia : you do n't know what you 're talking about . johnny : no ? olivia : no ! sonny 's been having a really hard time , okay ? jason died . connie dumped him . johnny : yeah . connie 's your cousin , right ? now you 're comforting her ex ? olivia : okay -- you may not realize this , but lulu was missing for quite a while . dante went to find her . the two of them were gone for days . we had no idea if they were alive or dead . johnny : no , i - i did n't know that . i 'm sorry . that must have been ... terrible for you . olivia : it -- it was . but it -- but it 's okay now , thank god . but it 's just been , like , one crisis after another for sonny ! then brenda came back and started all kind of trouble with michael , and -- johnny : michael ? olivia : and now morgan ? he 's just -- he 's having a really , really hard time , and -- and he needs ... a friend . and i 've always been that to him . and that 's all it is . johnny : whatever you say . sonny : the game was rigged . now morgan owes , uh , some bookies more money than he can pay , and he -- instead of telling us , he ran . carly : he 's never been on his own before ! sonny , he has no idea how to take care of himself ! sonny : well , i just got to find him before it gets worse . carly : i 'm on my way , okay ? sonny : no , no , do n't . you 're not any good here . you stay in port charles . carly : what are you talking about ? i 'm not gon na sit around here while my son is missing ! sonny : listen , carly . he 's been gone for like -- you know , since yesterday . he could be anywhere . i 'm just hoping that he heads home , and then you 're there , and , you know , it 'll all work out . carly : you 're right . you 're right . i -- [ sighs ] okay . but you promise me that you will call me the second you hear anything ? sonny : i will . nikolas : it 's not terrible . tracy : `` not terrible `` ? is that the best you can do ? nikolas : and if it were coming from edward ? tracy : it would be high praise . nikolas : exactly . tracy : so you 're in ? nikolas : well , you , uh -- you do make a good case . i 'll say that . i mean , who in their right mind would choose what aj 's offering over what i could give them ? tracy : what we can give them . nikolas : right . sure . tracy : okay ! so ... get busy , prince charming . make a few calls . get pickle- eddie on that show . aj : i think you 're right . it 's either now or never . monica : well , this is exciting ! you 're going to be on television , and no one is dead or going to prison . aj : i think you ought to get used to it . monica : that would be nice . aj : yeah . okay , look ! um ... we 'll leave this afternoon . once everything 's prepped , we 'll meet back here . michael : okay . aj : all right . and , michael , one more thing . nice work , kid . monica : mm - hmm . michael : thanks . monica : aj ? aj : mom , you know , none of this -- none of it would have happened without you in my corner . monica : well , that 's -- that 's lovely to say , but that 's not why i stopped you . i think you should call elizabeth . aj : i -- you know , mom , i - i really would like to just forget everything that happened last night . i mean , if i call elizabeth , and i tell her what -- monica : i think -- i think that you and elizabeth really can work , if you put in the hard work . aj : well , what do you think i should do ? i mean ... monica : well ... new york is one of the most romantic cites in the world ! surely you could think of something . elizabeth : okay , i 'll have the lab put a rush on this . britt : [ gasps ] elizabeth : here . hold this . britt : do you have any advice ? i - i 've never been pregnant before . [ sniffles , whimpers ] elizabeth : the hospital offers classes for new moms . i 'm sure you can schedule something . britt : i guess i was hoping for something a bit more personal . i mean , you 've been through it more than enough times , after all . [ breathing shakily ] felix : uh , sabrina was just mentioning that epiphany 's putting all us newbies on the night shift . patrick : she 's putting you on the night shift ? sabrina : it 's -- it 's just a rumor . patrick : well , the night shift 's a rite of passage . i did two years of it myself . um ... can you do me a favor ? i 've got to go call britt 's ob . i know she 's not your favorite person , but can you keep an eye on her for a second , please ? sabrina : i 'd be happy to . patrick : thanks . britt : was it something i said ? elizabeth : i 've got to get this to the lab . oh , good . you 're here ! well , she 's all yours . britt : [ moans ] thank you so much , sabrina , for all your help . you know , this pregnancy has been so difficult ! sabrina : save it , britt . i know you 're faking . elizabeth : can you put a rush on this , please ? man : yeah . elizabeth : thank you . hey ! i tried calling you ! aj : what 's the rest of your day look like ? elizabeth : uh , my shift is over right now . you want to grab some lunch ? aj : i was actually thinking of something that might , uh , take a little more time . elizabeth : oh , yeah ? aj : yeah . elizabeth : like what ? aj : come with me to new york . nikolas : no , i understand . and thank you for your consideration . okay . tracy : so ... ? we heading to new york ? did you get my nephew and his ersatz relish knocked off the show ? nikolas : yes and no . tracy : [ chuckles ] nikolas , what does that mean ? nikolas : the producers of `` the chew `` are somewhat more ethical than i 've encountered in the past . i 'm sorry -- i was n't able to get aj dumped from the show . tracy : what ? nikolas : they 've made a commitment to pickle - lila , and ... intend to honor it . tracy : that 's it . we 're finished ! with the head - start that appearance on that show is gon na give pickle - lila , even my nephew wo n't be able to screw it up ! nikolas : no , no , no ! not exactly ! we were able to reach a compromise ... that serves our interests without compromising the integrity of the show . tracy : spit it out ! nikolas : we 're booked on the show . it 's gon na be a surprise taste - off . tracy : an ambush ! i love it ! nikolas : [ stammers ] yes , and so do the producers . i mean , it is ... may sweeps , after all . tracy : oh , yes ! this is brilliant ! he 's gon na be humiliated on national television . and the whole country will finally see ... whose relish reigns supreme . michael : mom ? carly : hey . michael : hey . carly : hey ! what are you doing here ? michael : i was checking in . i want to let you know i 'm -- i 'm flying to new york tonight , uh , with aj . carly : oh . okay ! thanks for telling me . all right .

matt : no , this is my first trip back to springfield in quite some time . olivia : oh , because i definitely would have remembered you . anyway , i hope now that you 're in town , you plan on staying awhile . matt : actually i don't . bill : hi , honey . i see you two have met . but let 's make it official . matt , this is olivia , my wife . and olivia , this is matt reardon , my step - father . jeffrey : do n't do it . it 's really , really tough to quit . besides it 's a nasty habit . harley : well , i hear it 's a great way to kill time . and i will have plenty of that on my hands . and you could use it as currency in prison . jeffrey : well , you 're not going to prison yet . harley : maybe sooner than you think . i want to take the deal . jeffrey : what ? harley : i 'm tired of fighting . i do n't want to do it anymore . jeffrey : well , that 's not exactly the same as admitting your guilt . but ... harley : are you going to work with me on this ? jeffrey : well , i just happen to have a copy of the agreent . as matter of fact , i always have one with me , actually . harley : this is n't bad enough ? you want me to beg ? jeffrey : no , it 's not that . it 's just that ... well , this is the smartest thing you could do . harley : then what 's the problem ? jeffrey : well , i do n't believe and i do n't think for one minute that this is what you really want to do . harley : i do n't care what you believe . where do i sign ? coming up on `` guiding light . `` reva : she 's un - findable , because edmund has her stashed away somewhere . jeffrey : okay , what do you want ? reva : i want to file charges against him . and i want you to draw up the papers . gus : leave the country with me . right now . tonight . oprah : scott peterson 's sister tells why she thin jeffrey : all right . i do n't need an explanation . harley : just a signature . jeffrey : you know , this is no picnic , you 're looking at here . you know that , right ? you 're not going to be doing your time in some minimum security country club , all right . manslaughter conviction means you 're going to be going to a real hole where the fellow inmates are n't exactly going to roll out a welcome mat for an ex - cop . harley : i 'll manage . jeffrey : well , what does gus have to say bout this ? harley : gus is my lawyer . he works for me . i make the decisions . jeffrey : hmm . harley : hmm . so what happens now ? do we need to go down to the station house or something ? jeffrey : no , no . first , we have another stop to make . you 're going to before judge ellis and you 're going to tell her that this is exactly what you choose to do tomorrow . harley : out loud in open court ? jeffrey : that 's right . out loud in open court . it wo n't take long . harley : okay . anything else ? jeffrey : yeah , just a question . harley : what ? jeffrey : well , what are you thinking about ? wh are you feeling ending it like this ? harley : relieved . jeffrey : okay . me , too . see you tomorrow . harley : looking for these ? olivia : well , i knew he was matt . bill : no , you didn't . olivia : yes . yes , i did . bill : no , you did not . olivia : i was just having fun at your expense . bill : oh , really ? yeah . olivia : yes , i was . bill : do n't you have a sense of humor ? olivia : ( fake laugh ) bill : yeah . mm - hmm . olivia : what brings you to town ? bill did n't tell me . what do you know ? bill : yes , i did tell you , honey . the intervention for dinah . olivia : he did . bill : that 's right . olivia : that 's refreshing . bill : mm - hmm . olivia : can i say something about dinah ? i do n't envy her . because i know what it feels like to be in a room where everyone is against you and doing everything they can to undermine your position . just a thought . anyway i understand that your wife could n't make it , matt . matt : no , your mother - in - law could n't make it this trip . unfortunately our daughter came down with a nasty bug and vanessa felt she should stay behind in positano with maureen . so she asked me to come . here i am . olivia : your wife asked you to do something for her and you did it . i think that 's wonderful commitment . i want to buy you a drink . bill : oh , that 's great . reva : okay , that 's it . sandy : wait , reva . reva : no , enough is enough . tammy , just tell him that you want to see your mother . period ! edmund : reva , that 's not what we 're ... tammy : hey , stop it ! both of you . i think edmund is taking care of mom the way he should . he 's doing the right thing . reva : nice work . do n't let him lie to you . tammy : he 's not lying . if anybody here is lying , it 's you . reva : me ? about what ? tammy : jonathan . you did n't say one word to me about bringing him to the clinic . reva : because i know you would have been upset . tammy : well , it does upset me . and it would have upset mom . that 's why edmund 's trying to protect her because seeing jonathan is bad for her . and so are you if you keep bringing him around . reva : is that what ... hey , where did he go ? sandy : i would have followed him , but his car was waiting out front . tammy : you 're so concerned about upsetting me and meanwhile you 're bringing him to see my mom at the clinic knowing that would upset her . reva : tammy ... tammy : why ? reva : you know me . you know i love your mother . and i 'm only looking out for her best interest . tammy : are you ? reva : you know what ? this is n't getting us anywhere . i 'm sorry that you 've been so hurt by all of this . but listen to me . this issue is between me and edmund . at least for now . tammy : what is that suppose to mean ? reva : i do n't know . i do n't know . but i 've got to go . tammy : but ... reva : when i find your mother and i will , you 'll be the first to know . and that 's no lie . see you . edmund : have you been sleeping ? cassie : i tried . i couldn't . edmund : oh . you have n't been up and around , have you ? cassie : no , i tried and i could n't do that either , because it hurt when i moved around . edmund : and that is precisely why you need to stay in this bed . no moving around unless it 's absolutely necessary . cassie : yes , doctor . edmund : and that 's doctor winslow to you . you know , i 've been monitoring your case very , very closely . cassie : really ? edmund : mm . cassie : well , if that 's the case , you 're slipping . edmund : how 's that ? cassie : you said , you were going to get some of my things and unless they 're really , really small , you forgot them . edmund : ouch . i was way late . i was way late . and i 'm waiting for you to go back to sleep , so i can run to the farm and get them . cassie : you can go now . edmund : no , i can't . i 'd be losing waking moments with you . no thank you . cassie : that 's exactly the answer i want to hear . to tell you the truth , i was felling kind of lonely . you know , in fact , i really wanted to call tammy and reva , but i ca n't get the phone to work . and an operator said , a block been put on the phone . edmund : a block ? cassie : yeah . do you know anything about that ? edmund : maybe it 's just our phone , because otherwise there has to be some sort of mistake . cassie : i told you . it 's not working . did you have anything to do with that ? edmund : no . well , i asked the receptionist to put restrictions on incoming calls , but ... cassie : why ? edmund : well , i did n't want you disturbed . cassie you said , you had a hard time even standing up . the last thing you want is the phone ringing every 30 seconds . cassie : you are going to make sure that i am rested and relaxed , are you ? edmund : yes , i am . and is that so terrible ? really ? cassie , i will have the phone problem fixed straight away . you all right ? cassie : yeah . i 'm just feeling a little isolated . i could n't even find my cell phone . edmund : oh , i 'm sorry if you 're lonely . cassie : you do n't need to make me sound pathetic . edmund : ( laughs ) i 'm nit meaning to make you sound pathetic . i just want you to know that i 'm here to take away your loneliness . cassie : i know . and i love you for that . i do . i just ... i want to talk to reva and tammy and i want to tell them what 's going on with us . edmund : well , i ran into them earlier . i told them everything . cassie : really ? edmund : yeah , yeah . tammy sends her love . and reva ... well , you know , reva . she wanted to just run over here and take care of everything and i told her that was a bad idea . and i think even she agreed it was a bad idea and that my plan is the best way . it 's the only way . reva : oh , great . i was beginning to think you were n't going to show up . jeffrey : well , i 'm sorry . i 'm busy . i got a lot of stuff going on . so , what 's up ? reva : i want to know about the fire ? jeffrey : what fire ? reva : in cassie 's barn . jeffrey : in cassie 's barn . that 's what you 're getting all worked up about ? that 's like ancient history , reva . reva : jeffrey , do you know what really happened in that barn ? jeffrey : what do you mean ? reva : i know . jeffrey : well , then you do n't need me to tell you , do you ? reva : i ca n't believe this . you knew edmund smacked you over the head and started that fire ? jeffrey : reva . reva : he wanted to kill you , jeffrey . he put cassie and rj 's lives at risk . how long have you been carrying around that little bit of information ? jeffrey : since just before the wedding . reva : and you sat on it . jeffrey : time had passed , reva . if i would have said anything , it would have put an end to that marriage . it would have stopped the wedding . and cassie made it clear that she was in love with edmund . reva : and that enough to keep her in the dark about him ? jeffrey : seemed like it at the time . what about you ? have you told her ? reva : well , you know i 've been trying . jeffrey : oh , yeah ? you have ? reva : but that 's complicated too . yes , i have . jeffrey : how 's it complicated ? reva : i ca n't find her . jeffrey : well , she 's got to be somewhere ? reva : no . no , no , no . she 's un - findable , because edmund has her stashed away somewhere ... for his own reasons . jeffrey : okay . what do you want ? reva : i want to file charges against him . and i want you to draw up the papers . sandy : thinking about your mom ? tammy : yeah . sandy : well , you did say , you thought edmund 's doing the right thing , right ? tammy : it did seem like it . it 's just that ... sandy : go on . tammy : if i ca n't see my mom until this whole baby thing is over or whatever , it 's going to be that much thing longer until this other thing is resolved . sandy : what other thing ? tammy : something happened the night before the wedding between my mom and jonathan . sandy : did they get in a fight ? tammy : i wish it was just a fight . it 's so much worse . sandy : i 'm sorry . i do n't understand . tammy : jonathan said that my mom tried to set him up in her hotel room by seducing him . sandy : okay , see , i do n't believe that for a minute . tammy : trying to seduce him . i do n't know . but there 's a videotape , sandy . a videotape . i am so freaking mad . sandy : well , he 's pretty easy to get mad at . tammy : not jonathan . my mother . she said , she did it for me because she did n't think i could handle him on my own . can you believe she actually came up with the idea of coming on to him , so that ... i do n't know , so that he 'd look so horrible to the rest of the world that he 'd have to leave town . sandy : well , that 's one way to make sure he does n't bother you again . tammy : but it 's outrageous . do n't you think so ? sandy : no . but your reaction is . olivia : excuse me , matt . get out of my way . alan , i 'd like to talk to you for just a moment . in there , please ? alan : after you . matt : well , that was a pretty clear choice . quick one , too . bill : yeah . well , she just had some unfinished business to take care of . matt : you okay ? bill : yeah . yeah , yeah , yeah . i just wish that everyone would stop acting like i do n't know how to run my life . matt : no , that 's not what i meant . it 's just ... bill : i know . i 'm sorry . i 'm just ... matt : it 's just i know a little bit about olivia . bill : i can handle olivia . really . matt , i 'm fine . thanks . matt : good . good . i 'm glad to hear it . look , i 'm going to give your mom a quick call and then i 'll meet in the restaurant . bill : all right . yeah , and will you tell her that i 'm fine . i 'm sure she 'd love to hear a report . olivia : so have you given any more thought to what we talked about at the office ? alan : about what ? olivia : about sebastian we- do n't - need - him hulce . come on , i have been handling my corporate responsibilities just fine . alan : olivia , you know i like to cover my base . beside i 'm rewarding loyalty . olivia : alan , i have been very dedicated to spaulding . alan : that 's where you and i see differently . if you were truly committed to the company , i think you would n't have barked at an offer of good faith . olivia : i ca n't do it . stop asking me for a piece of slingshot . okay , i ca n't give you a cut of the business . i ca n't do it to bill . alan : you see . you made my case for me . that 's why i 'm keeping sebastian on . it 's very clear to me , olivia , where your loyalties are . so enjoy your evening . olivia : alan , what if i offered you something else ? equally as exciting as slingshot if not more so ? alan : what did you have in mind ? olivia : how would you like to be co - owner of the lewis construction building ? gus : so you took it . you signed the deal ? harley : yeah . all done . gus : well , no , not really . you 'd have to stand up in court and tell the judge and tell the world you 're guilty . harley : i 'm ready . gus : well , it 's not official , you know , until you actually make the admission . harley : nothing 's going to change between now and then . gus : but it can . leave the country with me . right now . tonight . we 'll go , we 'll never look back . harley : i 've never been to south america . gus : now 's your chance . sandy : tammy , what do you really think of jonathan ? i mean , putting aside what he did to you , how does he strike you as a guy ? you know , the way he looks , the way he makes you feel . tammy : why are you asking me this ? sandy : more than once you 've gone out of your way to prove to me that he means nothing to you . tammy : less than nothing . sandy : and you 're doing it again , which tells me either you hate jonathan every minute of everyday or you 're trying to reassure me that he does n't have a hold over you . and , tammy , i do n't need that kind of reassurance . tammy : you do n't ? sandy : i don't . i 'm not worried about him or you . especially you . tammy : ( sighs ) . sandy : watch . cassie : edmund ? will you stay with me until i fall asleep ? edmund : i 'll stay with you until you send me away . cassie : well , you 'd better get comfortable , because that will be forever . edmund : i hope so , cassie . i hope so . jeffrey : you want to file charges against edmund ? reva : yeah , whatever you got . you know , arson . attempted murder . wreckless endangerment . take your pick . jeffrey : you know that this is not only going to hurt cassie tremendously but destroy your relationship with her ? reva : my only concern right now is cassie 's well - being . jeffrey : how well is she going to be with a broken heart , reva ? reva : look , jeffrey , you have no idea what edmund is capable of , but i know firsthand the cruelty , the devastation . and i 'm not going to stand by and watch another disaster happen . i wo n't ! how soon can you draw up the papers ? jeffrey : i can get documents to you by tomorrow . reva : thank you . jeffrey : on one condition : that you take a timeout , take a couple days , let this settle down and think about what you 're trying to do here . reva , you do n't want this to get worse , right ? you do n't want it to be worse for cassie , do you ? reva : all right . jeffrey : okay . good . now i 've got to go . i 've got so much work you ca n't even imagine . reva : jeffrey ? jeffrey : yeah ? reva : were n't you even tempted ? jeffrey : what , to tell cassie ? reva : when you found out what really happened that night ? were n't you tempted to run straight to her and tell her the truth ? jeffrey : yeah , i think i might have been . reva : but you didn't . jeffrey : no , i told you , that would have destroyed that marriage , okay ? no matter what you and i think or feel , it 's not about us , it 's about them . it 's about those two people and how much they love each other . olivia : in order to show my priorities and my loyalties , i 'm willing to split ownership of that building right down the middle with you , 50/50 . how does it sound ? alan : you can always make a very good pitch . olivia : did it work ? alan : i 'm not sure , but i 'll be in touch . bill : well , you and alan looked pretty cozy in there . olivia : not so much . bill : what you talking about ? olivia : business , nothing much , you know . bill : yeah . olivia : well , you know , at least he did n't ask me why my husband is rebuilding the house of the woman who shot his son . bill : ( laughs ) well , still chewing on that one , huh ? olivia : yeah , i 'm chewing on it . bill : ( laughs ) well ... olivia : step daddy 's waiting . go on . harley : i ca n't go . i love you , you know that . gus : i just thought ... i ... i thought this would be our way out , you know ? harley : i already have my way out , and that is as ... as tempting as that is , it just makes it harder . gus : it 's just that you ... i just figure you ... we 'd be together , you know ? and this way you 'd ... this way you 'd be free . harley : gus , i 've made my decision . you need to respect that . it 's over . it 's time for you to let go . gus : i ca n't really do that . harley : you 're going to be okay , hmm ? gus : i 'm not really going to be okay without you , because i 'm nothing without you . and i will continue to be nothing . harley : do n't say that . gus : i would do anything for you . i would back you on anything . i would back you on anything but this . harley : i told you , i already made my decision . gus : well , i think you 're making a mistake . because we can still beat this thing . there 's still a chance . we can beat this . there 's a chance . there 's a chance ... harley : for us ? i 'm taking the deal . gus : well , if you do this , i wo n't be there . i 'm not going to listen to that . i 'll lose it . i 'll do something crazy , i know myself . i ... if you do this , i 'm ... you 're on your own . [ next_on ] reva : give me that ! jonathan : what do we have here , mom ? are you pressing charges against uncle eddie for hitting jeffrey o'neill ? gus : i 'm not walking out of your life . harley : well you have to . okay ? you have to , because i ca n't live with anything else . | gus goes to his father for help and does n't get what he wants . olivia is n't pleased when she learns that bill is rebuilding harley 's home . reva continues looking for her sister . edmund informs reva & tammy that he wo n't tell them where cassie is . cassie wakes up in a suite inside towers . she is thankful for everything that edmund is doing for her . he lies to her numerous times in order to keep her from asking too many questions . reva goes to jeffery for help in dealing with edmund . matt meets olivia and does n't look like he 's thrilled with the newest member of the family . olivia makes alan an offer for 50 % of the lewis construction building in order for him to fire sebastian . harley signs the plea bargain and leaves gus . | <s>[INST] gus : there 's something i should know ? what 's that ? how to suck it up even though i 'm losing everything that i ever cared about . but that 's what spauldings do ? alan : that 's not what i 'm going to tell you . gus : no . you were going to point out to me that i have failed this great family of ours ? or you want to remind me that the woman i love has admitted to killing your number one son . is that it ? alan : tell the truth . you still are n't certain you killed my son . harley : no , i 'm not . gus : so what is it you want me to know ? how i have failed you personally ; more than any other spaulding ever has . you know , i actually started to believe that if i could clear harley , i would be making up for the biggest mistake of my life -- for protecting you and alexandra and this entire family . and i would save us , harley and me . i would save our relationship . alan : and now ? gus : and now ... and now she 's taking a deal from the da and she 's going to prison and there 's nothing i could do about it . alan : something i could do about it , do you think ? gus : oh , i do n't know . is n't that what father 's do ? i 'm in trouble . fathers are suppose to come in and swoop in and help out when things get rough . is n't that right ? am i crazy for saying this ? alan : no . bill : hey . olivia : everything okay ? bill : harley 's taking the deal from o'neill . olivia : you 're kidding ? you 're changing your plea ? i 'm sorry . harley : yeah , me too . but i think it 's for the best , you know . i should go . ( laughs nervously ) bill : hey , hey , hey , do n't leave . harley : no , i 'm sure that you guys have lots of stuff you have to talk about . but thank you again . you are such a great friend . i almost fainted when he told me about the house . ( laughs ) olivia : the house ? bill : he 's offered to pick up where gus left off and rebuild my house . i mean that 's incredible . i have no words for that . you must have felt the same way when he told you . olivia : yeah . yeah , it definitely came as a surprise . reva : check again . maybe she registered under an alias . clerk : in her own hotel ? sandy : yeah , that would n't make much sense . reva : tammy . any news ? tammy : no . she did n't leave a message or a note . nothing . sandy : very , very weird . tammy : i do n't get this . why would she just disappear from the fertility clinic ? reva : she did n't just disappear . she had help . cassie : edmund ? edmund : right here . how are you feeling ? cassie : where am i ? what 's going on ? edmund : in a suite in towers . i brought you here after i checked you out of the clinic . cassie : but this is n't your suite . edmund : well , my suite is being repainted . cassie : i 'm still kind of out of it . edmund : it 's okay . get some rest . the doctor said you 're going to be tired and sore for a little while . so the bed is the best place to stay . i 'm just going to run out and get some things for you and make it more comfortable , okay . cassie : edmund , the reaction after ... i mean did it effect everything ? edmund : no , no , cassie . cassie , the retrieval went perfectly . it went perfectly . we 're just going to wait and see how many of the eggs fertilize and then how soon they can plant them . cassie : it 's happening so fast . edmund : it 's amazing , is n't it ? you know if all goes well , cassie , before we know it we 're going to have a family of our own . i 'm going to make sure nothing , nothing at all disturbs you . i love you . nothing , and no one . tammy : are you saying my mom was kidnapped ? reva : not exactly . but close enough . sandy : who was the help ? reva : edmund . that would explain why there were n't any notes or message . still no answer . tammy : why would he just drag her off and try to keep her from her own family ? reva : sweetie , i do n't know . it would n't be like the first time it happened . tammy : are you talking about san cristabal ? the tower ? that 's crazy . reva : i know you do n't want to believe it , but it just feels all too familiar . tammy : why would he need to do something like that ? does this has something to do with what jonathan did the night before the wedding ? sandy : jonathan ? reva : tammy , all you need to know is that what 's happening right now has nothing to do with you . it 's about me . tammy : why ? what is going on ? ( cell phone rings ) reva : you know what ? this could be news . hello ? sandy : hey , are you okay ? tammy : of course i 'm not okay . my mom 's missing and my aunt thinks it 's one notch away from alien abduction . sandy : is that all of it ? you were saying something about your mom and jonathan . tammy : sandy , my mom tried to get jonathan to ... reva : going to have to take care of it . okay . tammy : oh , where is mom ? edmund : she 's fine . she 's safe . and i 'm not going to tell any of you where she is . harley : you are the best . bill : oh , please . harley : thank you . thank you . thank you . bill : yeah . harley : bye , you guys . bill : i 'm the best . you hear that ? olivia : yeah . bill : you think i 'm the best ? ( laughs nervously ) olivia : a house . bill : what ? come on , olivia . olivia : you 're building her a house ? ! then what are you doing ? bill : it 's -- olivia : why are you doing this to me now ? come on , i 'm having enough trouble with alan as it is . he just hired sebastian hulce to be my co - president . bill : oh , my goodness , i did n't know they were doing that to you . they 're making you share job titles ? i 'm so sorry , honey . what could be worst ? i do n't know . maybe harley going to jail ? olivia : well , apparently for shooting alan 's son . bill : oh , com eon . olivia : listen to me . we are so close to getting what we want from alan . but for some reason , it 's like you 're looking for ways to antagonize him . bill : well , i do n't work for the guy . olivia : you work with me . and we 're suppose to be partners . you remember what that means ? you know , sharing mutual goals , cooperating on joint ventures . or maybe you do n't remember . bill : i remember everything . olivia : really ? bill : yes . olivia : because lately it feels like you 're not so much teaming up with me , but trying to screw me over . and you know what , bill ? you 're doing a damn good job of it . jeffrey : yeah , o'neill here . harley : it 's harley . jeffrey : we should n't be talking . harley : this wo n't take long . it 's time to put an end to all this . alan : please . please . i know you think that i do n't want to help you , gus . but i do n't enjoy seeing you go through all of this . if i could help you alleviate it in any way ... gus : yeah , right . alan : i do n't want you to go through this alone . gus : are you offering me something ? look , when this fight is over ... when all of this is over , i want you and me to bridge this gap that 's been built between us . heal the wounds . gus : when all of this is over , harley 's going to be living in eight by ten prison cell . alan : she has accepted the da deal . that fight is over . but it does not have to be over between you and me . the fact is that you ... gus : don't ... do n't do this . do n't say it . do n't say everybody 's better off , okay . alan : i just want us to be closer that 's all . gus : no , i know ... i know exactly what you 're trying to do . you 're trying to get me to swallow a sympathy pill and jump back into your life and take my place in this family . i know what you 're doing . alan : i 'm merely trying to establish ... gus : well , i do n't want your help , okay . i do n't want your help . because every single miserable thing that is happening is happening because of you . alan : phillip 's death is because of me , harley going to prison is because of me ? oh , son , come on . gus : son ? i do n't want you to call me that . alan : all right . i guess you and i understand each other . you do n't want help and you wo n't get it . gus : save it for the autobiography . and as far as harley 's concerned , my fights only begun . why do n't you busy yourself , look into your own soul and see what part you played in your son 's death . but you wo n't do that , will you ? no , because you 're on to the next thing . looking for the big ... the big deal . the new fresh target . reva : you have no right to keep cassie hidden away . tammy : what are you doing , edmund ? edmund : tammy , your mother suffered serious side effects from the anesthesia at the clinic . reva : i told her that . edmund : good . did you also tell her that cassie needs peace and quiet and rest right now ? all of which i intend to give her . tammy : well , why i ca n't i see her ? maybe a visit will make her feel better ? edmund : tammy , may i speak to you for a minute , please ? alone . reva : no , i 'd like to hear this too . tammy : it 's okay , aunt reva . come on , let 's go . edmund : tammy , i know how unsettling this must be for you . tammy : i just do n't understand it . it does n't seem right . edmund : i know . i 'm sorry . just listen to me . reva is a threat . she 's a threat . you know that better than anyone . she 's allowed jonathan to wreak havoc on our lives . and i wo n't let either of them take this away from me . tammy : you mean from you and mom ? edmund : of course , i do . look , tammy , the point is this . the doctor made it very clear that your mother need to recover from the retrieval in peace away from stress . tammy : so you 're going to hold her prisoner ?

harley : i 'm tired of fighting . i do n't want to do it anymore . jeffrey : well , that 's not exactly the same as admitting your guilt . but ... harley : are you going to work with me on this ? jeffrey : well , i just happen to have a copy of the agreent . as matter of fact , i always have one with me , actually . harley : this is n't bad enough ? you want me to beg ? jeffrey : no , it 's not that . it 's just that ... well , this is the smartest thing you could do . harley : then what 's the problem ? jeffrey : well , i do n't believe and i do n't think for one minute that this is what you really want to do . harley : i do n't care what you believe . where do i sign ?

about what ? tammy : jonathan . you did n't say one word to me about bringing him to the clinic . reva : because i know you would have been upset . tammy : well , it does upset me . and it would have upset mom . that 's why edmund 's trying to protect her because seeing jonathan is bad for her . and so are you if you keep bringing him around . reva : is that what ... hey , where did he go ? sandy : i would have followed him , but his car was waiting out front . tammy : you 're so concerned about upsetting me and meanwhile you 're bringing him to see my mom at the clinic knowing that would upset her . reva : tammy ... tammy : why ? reva : you know me . you know i love your mother . and i 'm only looking out for her best interest . tammy : are you ? reva : you know what ? this is n't getting us anywhere . i 'm sorry that you 've been so hurt by all of this . but listen to me . this issue is between me and edmund . at least for now . tammy : what is that suppose to mean ? reva : i do n't know . i do n't know . but i 've got to go . tammy : but ... reva : when i find your mother and i will , you 'll be the first to know . and that 's no lie . see you . edmund : have you been sleeping ? cassie : i tried . i couldn't . edmund : oh . you have n't been up and around , have you ? cassie : no , i tried and i could n't do that either , because it hurt when i moved around . edmund : and that is precisely why you need to stay in this bed . no moving around unless it 's absolutely necessary . cassie : yes , doctor . edmund : and that 's doctor winslow to you . you know , i 've been monitoring your case very , very closely . cassie : really ? edmund : mm . cassie : well , if that 's the case , you 're slipping . edmund : how 's that ? cassie : you said , you were going to get some of my things and unless they 're really , really small , you forgot them . edmund : ouch . i was way late . i was way late . and i 'm waiting for you to go back to sleep , so i can run to the farm and get them . cassie : you can go now . edmund : no , i can't . i 'd be losing waking moments with you . no thank you . cassie : that 's exactly the answer i want to hear . to tell you the truth , i was felling kind of lonely . you know , in fact , i really wanted to call tammy and reva , but i ca n't get the phone to work . and an operator said , a block been put on the phone . edmund : a block ? cassie : yeah . do you know anything about that ? edmund : maybe it 's just our phone , because otherwise there has to be some sort of mistake . cassie : i told you . it 's not working . did you have anything to do with that ? edmund : no . well , i asked the receptionist to put restrictions on incoming calls , but ... cassie : why ? edmund : well , i did n't want you disturbed . cassie you said , you had a hard time even standing up . the last thing you want is the phone ringing every 30 seconds . cassie : you are going to make sure that i am rested and relaxed , are you ? edmund : yes , i am . and is that so terrible ? really ? cassie , i will have the phone problem fixed straight away . you all right ? cassie : yeah . i 'm just feeling a little isolated . i could n't even find my cell phone . edmund : oh , i 'm sorry if you 're lonely . cassie : you do n't need to make me sound pathetic . edmund : ( laughs ) i 'm nit meaning to make you sound pathetic . i just want you to know that i 'm here to take away your loneliness . cassie : i know . and i love you for that . i do . i just ... i want to talk to reva and tammy and i want to tell them what 's going on with us . edmund : well , i ran into them earlier . i told them everything . cassie : really ? edmund : yeah , yeah . tammy sends her love . and reva ... well , you know , reva . she wanted to just run over here and take care of everything and i told her that was a bad idea . and i think even she agreed it was a bad idea and that my plan is the best way . it 's the only way . reva : oh , great . i was beginning to think you were n't going to show up . jeffrey : well , i 'm sorry . i 'm busy . i got a lot of stuff going on . so , what 's up ? reva : i want to know about the fire ? jeffrey : what fire ? reva : in cassie 's barn . jeffrey : in cassie 's barn . that 's what you 're getting all worked up about ? that 's like ancient history , reva . reva : jeffrey , do you know what really happened in that barn ? jeffrey : what do you mean ? reva : i know . jeffrey : well , then you do n't need me to tell you , do you ? reva : i ca n't believe this . you knew edmund smacked you over the head and started that fire ? jeffrey : reva . reva : he wanted to kill you , jeffrey . he put cassie and rj 's lives at risk . how long have you been carrying around that little bit of information ? jeffrey : since just before the wedding . reva : and you sat on it . jeffrey : time had passed , reva . if i would have said anything , it would have put an end to that marriage . it would have stopped the wedding . and cassie made it clear that she was in love with edmund . reva : and that enough to keep her in the dark about him ? jeffrey : seemed like it at the time . what about you ? have you told her ? reva : well , you know i 've been trying . jeffrey : oh , yeah ? you have ? reva : but that 's complicated too . yes , i have . jeffrey : how 's it complicated ? reva : i ca n't find her . jeffrey : well , she 's got to be somewhere ? reva : no . no , no , no . she 's un - findable , because edmund has her stashed away somewhere ... for his own reasons . jeffrey : okay . what do you want ? reva : i want to file charges against him . and i want you to draw up the papers . sandy : thinking about your mom ? tammy : yeah . sandy : well , you did say , you thought edmund 's doing the right thing , right ? tammy : it did seem like it . it 's just that ... sandy : go on . tammy : if i ca n't see my mom until this whole baby thing is over or whatever , it 's going to be that much thing longer until this other thing is resolved . sandy : what other thing ? tammy : something happened the night before the wedding between my mom and jonathan . sandy : did they get in a fight ? tammy : i wish it was just a fight . it 's so much worse . sandy : i 'm sorry . i do n't understand . tammy : jonathan said that my mom tried to set him up in her hotel room by seducing him . sandy : okay , see , i do n't believe that for a minute . tammy : trying to seduce him . i do n't know . but there 's a videotape , sandy . a videotape . i am so freaking mad . sandy : well , he 's pretty easy to get mad at . tammy : not jonathan . my mother . she said , she did it for me because she did n't think i could handle him on my own . can you believe she actually came up with the idea of coming on to him , so that ... i do n't know , so that he 'd look so horrible to the rest of the world that he 'd have to leave town . sandy : well , that 's one way to make sure he does n't bother you again . tammy : but it 's outrageous . do n't you think so ? sandy : no . but your reaction is . olivia : excuse me , matt . get out of my way . alan , i 'd like to talk to you for just a moment . in there , please ? alan : after you . matt : well , that was a pretty clear choice . quick one , too . bill : yeah . well , she just had some unfinished business to take care of . matt : you okay ?

alan : about what ? olivia : about sebastian we- do n't - need - him hulce . come on , i have been handling my corporate responsibilities just fine . alan : olivia , you know i like to cover my base . beside i 'm rewarding loyalty . olivia : alan , i have been very dedicated to spaulding . alan : that 's where you and i see differently . if you were truly committed to the company , i think you would n't have barked at an offer of good faith . olivia : i ca n't do it . stop asking me for a piece of slingshot . okay , i ca n't give you a cut of the business . i ca n't do it to bill . alan : you see . you made my case for me . that 's why i 'm keeping sebastian on . it 's very clear to me , olivia , where your loyalties are . so enjoy your evening . olivia : alan , what if i offered you something else ?

i mean , putting aside what he did to you , how does he strike you as a guy ? you know , the way he looks , the way he makes you feel . tammy : why are you asking me this ? sandy : more than once you 've gone out of your way to prove to me that he means nothing to you . tammy : less than nothing . sandy : and you 're doing it again , which tells me either you hate jonathan every minute of everyday or you 're trying to reassure me that he does n't have a hold over you . and , tammy , i do n't need that kind of reassurance . tammy : you do n't ? sandy : i don't . i 'm not worried about him or you . especially you . tammy : ( sighs ) . sandy : watch . cassie : edmund ? will you stay with me until i fall asleep ? edmund : i 'll stay with you until you send me away . cassie : well , you 'd better get comfortable , because that will be forever . edmund : i hope so , cassie . i hope so . jeffrey : you want to file charges against edmund ? reva : yeah , whatever you got . you know , arson . attempted murder . wreckless endangerment . take your pick . jeffrey : you know that this is not only going to hurt cassie tremendously but destroy your relationship with her ? reva : my only concern right now is cassie 's well - being . jeffrey : how well is she going to be with a broken heart , reva ? reva : look , jeffrey , you have no idea what edmund is capable of , but i know firsthand the cruelty , the devastation . and i 'm not going to stand by and watch another disaster happen . i wo n't ! how soon can you draw up the papers ?

no matter what you and i think or feel , it 's not about us , it 's about them . it 's about those two people and how much they love each other . olivia : in order to show my priorities and my loyalties , i 'm willing to split ownership of that building right down the middle with you , 50/50 . how does it sound ? alan : you can always make a very good pitch . olivia : did it work ? alan : i 'm not sure , but i 'll be in touch . bill : well , you and alan looked pretty cozy in there . olivia : not so much . bill : what you talking about ?

[ chuckles ] sally : well , as much as you would like to ship him off , he has helped us out tremendously . saul : maybe . unless he 's about to take it all away . sally : he 's not . saul : he 's meeting with his family right now . but -- but enough about that . we do n't have to rely on him , because , um , i 've got some designs . sally : saul -- saul : and money . i have some money , too . sally : oh , you do ? saul : now , it 's a modest savings . not forrester - esque , but enough . it would keep us afloat for a few weeks . we can do this , sally . you and me -- oh , what a team ! come on . forget about forrester and partner up with me . you 're all set . looks like you were low on towels , so i left a few extra . if there 's anything else , do n't hesitate to call . rick : merci . maya : uh , you know , i , uh , i think we need a few more towels . rick : pay no attention to my wife . maya : what ? rick : well , sometimes when she 's looking at pictures of our child , she tunes the rest of the world out .

never being able to have my own baby ? vivienne : the doctor did n't say never . nicole : we went to two different doctors . they both said the same thing . scarred , infertile . vivienne : possibly . nicole : because i brought this angel into the world . rick : hey . maya : hey . rick : what you working on ? maya : uh , lizzy 's schedule . i do n't want any one person to be overburdened , you know ? rick : oh , it 's too bad my mom 's on her honeymoon . she would have watched lizzy in a second . maya : i mean , nicole would , too , happily , i 'm sure , but i just do n't want to ask too much . so , that is why i 'm hoping that my mother will be able to take an evening or two . bonjour . vivienne : bonjour ! oh , how 's paris ? maya : uh , it 's beautiful . it 's beautiful . but you wo n't believe this . the shoot that rick and i came here to do turned out to be much bigger than we thought . it 's actually a huge campaign now , so we 're gon na have to stay a little longer . vivienne : oh ! you 're gon na stay longer ? um , how much longer ? maya : not sure . maybe another week . vivienne : a week ? maya : i know . i know . it 's terrible . and we had to leave lizzy with nicole because our nanny had a last - minute emergency , and now it turns out that she 's gon na be away even longer than we thought , so we 've been calling people frantically to see if they can help out . coco and pam have been absolute life savers . vivienne : you know , i 'm trying not to take it personally that -- that you would , uh , turn to pam and coco instead of asking your mother . maya : that 's why i am calling , to ask if you would help . vivienne : is that photo shoot that important ? maya : oh , mom , wait till you see it . vivienne : i 'm sure it 's a great opportunity . nicole : hand me the phone . vivienne : oh . nicole : hey . maya : nicole ? nicole : what 's this about a photo shoot ?

saul : well , not exactly , but i have enough to keep the sewing machines turned on . and , uh , i have something else , too . sally : what ? shirley : what 's going on in here ? saul : [ chuckles ] thomas : so you 're saying the only way i return to forrester is if i get all my money back from sally , cut all ties . is that where we 're at ? i get my job if i ditch sally ? i care about her . we are in a relationship . you get that , right ? ridge : i do n't think `` relationship `` is the right word here . thomas : you want me to choose between love and family . maya : yeah , you know , that 's the hardest part , being away from lizzy for so long . but , nicole , just wait until you see the shoot . you 'll be blown away . just picture forrester gowns all over paris . we 're mixing couture , history , famous landmarks . it 's gon na be huge for me and for forrester . nicole : wow . yeah . worth every sacrifice , i 'm sure . maya : yeah , it will be worth it for the coverage , but , um , you know , i hope i 'm not asking too much of you . nicole : taking care of lizzy ? not at all . maya : [ chuckles ] nicole : is that funny ? maya : oh , no . i 'm sorry . it 's rick . hey , rick . rick , i 'm on the phone . babe , can you give me a minute , please ? nicole : i should let you go . maya : it is getting kind of late here . oh , no , no , no . just half a glass . rick ! nicole , you should see the glass of wine this man is pouring . and is that escargot ? yes , i want some . nicole : well , i should get back to lizzy . she 's getting tired . maya : okay . hey , thank you so much for spending so much time with her . i really appreciate it . but if it ever becomes a hassle , i can find someone -- nicole : hassle ? never . maya : is something wrong ? nicole : no . maya : you just sound a little stressed . nicole : i 'm fine . enjoy your wine and escargot and posing in front of the eiffel tower or wherever . i 've got everything under control here . maya : are you sure ? nicole : do your thing , maya . do n't you worry . lizzy 's in good hands . saul : i think i 'll go check on those fabric orders . shirley : uh , do n't stop ordering the cheap stuff just because we have an investor . saul : i know , i know . sally : hey , saul ? i appreciate what you said . thank you . shirley : was he , um , giving you a pep talk ? i felt like i was interrupting . sally : something like that . shirley : hmm . sally : saul 's so sweet . he 's believed in me from the beginning , and he really thinks that we can make this company work and be legitimate . shirley : we can , thanks to thomas forrester and his very generous investment , an investment that could go away if his family talks him out of it . ridge : i do n't approve of what you did . but no , i 'm not asking you to choose . you 're my son . i love you , and i want you to be happy . when i heard about you writing a check , it just ... it upset me . and yes , maybe i did n't handle it the right way . but you belong here . thomas : you mean that ? eric : we all agree . steffy : your personal life , that 's your business . even your investments . i do n't like you throwing money at sally , but do what you got to do . as long as you 're doing it here . ridge : you 're part of this family and part of this company , and you helped make forrester what it is . steffy : i know that you felt unappreciated , but we 're gon na change that . dad and i are gon na make sure of it . eric : what do you say , tom ? come back . ridge : we could use your help . steffy : forrester creations is your legacy as much as it is mine . do n't walk away from it . maya : that was odd . rick : odd how ? maya : um , yeah . the -- the call was weird . um , nicole . she -- she did n't sound like herself . rick : it 's not something to do with lizzy , right ? maya : no , no , she reassured me that lizzy 's fine , but she was in this mood , you know , like she was trying to make me feel guilty for being away . rick : well , i 'm sure that 's not what she meant . you know what it probably is ? you 're misinterpreting . you 're already feeling your own guilt about being away that you 're reading too much into what other people are saying . maya : [ sighs ] yeah , you 're probably right . i just hope she 's not as stressed as she sounded . nicole : it 's not just me , right ? you find it weird , too , maya calling around town , asking pam of all people to watch lizzy ? vivienne : well , i did n't want to feel insulted , but -- nicole : well , it 's insulting . vivienne : she did n't want to burden us . we both work so hard . nicole : burden ?

why would he not come back to his family company ? ridge : [ sighs ] maybe sally 's offering something that we ca n't . steffy : he can still see her . hell , he can invest in that sinking company if he wants to . ridge : yeah , maybe he 's just too upset to come back . steffy : oh , too upset , too stubborn . ridge : he 's a forrester , after all . steffy : [ sighs ] thomas : busy ? sally : hey . no . never -- never too busy for you . how 'd your meeting go ? did they tell you to rip up the check you gave me and never to see me again ? thomas : i thought they would , but they did n't . sally : oh , so they do n't want you back ? thomas : no , they do . they do . but i can come back without the terms and conditions . my investments and my personal life are my business . sally : that 's -- that 's -- that 's great . so , what did you tell them ? nicole : you probably think i 'm being too emotional , but ... vivienne : too emotional ? listen , being told that you might not have a baby of your own , there 's no such thing as too emotional . nicole : [ voice breaking ] maybe it would n't be so hard if ... if i had n't already given ... and now maya 's in paris , taking pictures . and how is being some modeling star more important to her right now ? vivienne : no . no , it 's not . nicole : sure seems like it . vivienne : [ sighs ] nicole : i just ... i do n't know what 's happening to me right now . vivienne : you 're hurting . that 's understandable . nicole : i thought i 'd have another child . i never questioned it . vivienne : i know . i know . nicole : maybe daddy was right . maybe i should have never given her away . maya : you know what i just realized ? nicole 's tone . rick : what about it ? maya : it reminds me of when she first got to los angeles . she had all the anger underneath , almost threatening . rick : she was confused back then . she was trying to piece together stories that she was hearing . it 's totally different between you two now . maya : i just hope that nothing i 've done has made her question that . rick : oh , come on , maya . please . she carried our child for us . she loves you . you do n't have to worry about nicole . but we do have to worry about that maid that was here earlier . maya : what ? rick : well , she went to all the trouble turning down our bed . she 's been doing all these things around here . i mean , gosh , we 're just completely ignoring all her hard work . maya : [ chuckles ] well , we may have to remedy that . rick : yeah , we just might have to do that . maya : mm - hmm . rick : listen to me . lizzy 's okay . it 's all right . everything is all right . steffy : i 'm guessing we got through to thomas . he just needs to stew about it for a while . ridge : you 're probably right . steffy : there 's no reason for him not to come back . ridge : love , maybe . steffy : we told him he can keep seeing sally . we 're family , and we 're gon na be there for him even when his crush on sally is over . he has to stay at forrester . thomas has to know that . sally : well , this is cool . you can go back to work . thomas : yes , i can do that . sally : that 's what you told them ? thomas : no , i did n't tell them anything . i wanted to tell you first . sally : tell me ... ? thomas : sally , we should talk . sally : okay , that they 're not making you pull your investment , but maybe you feel like it 's the right thing to do because you 're going back to your family 's company to be loyal -- thomas : sally , sally , hey . calm down . my investment stays . sally : yeah ? thomas : absolutely . sally : oh . okay . thomas : i stay , too . sally : s - stay ? stay where ? thomas : stay here . sally , i 'm -- i 'm tired of waiting for handouts and -- and hoping for my -- my turn in line . my time is now , with you . sally : with me ?

sam : well , here we are , back at our old stomping ground . silas : yeah , and ava 's . sam : okay . all we have to do is find the person who is going to clear your name . silas : right . and here she is . delia : welcome to ryan 's . st take a seat anywhere . well , if it is n't my two favorite lovebirds . [ knock on door ] molly : who 's that ? tj : they probably got the wrong room . just ignore it . [ knock on door ] molly : they are n't going away . tj : i forgot to put the `` do not disturb `` sign on the door . it 's probably just room service coming back for the dishes . i 'll get rid of them . tj : ms. davis ... and ... mr. jerome . wow . hey . what 's up , guys ? alexis : where is my daughter ? rafe : hi . can i help you ? ric : i hope so . who are you ? rafe : i 'm rafe kovich . and you are ? ric : i 'm ric -- ric lansing . olivia : room service . sonny : ohh ! i am so glad to see you . olivia : you 're just saying that 'cause i brought you food . sonny : what do you mean ? why would you say something like that ? olivia : [ chuckles ] i do n't know . you 've been holed up here all day with michael , and then this powwow with shawn -- i just figured you probably had n't eaten . you have n't , have you ? am i right ? sonny : you -- are you right ? you 're always right . olivia : well , then , you 're in luck , because look what i got you . i got you bracciole , a beautiful bottle of red . i got you can -- cannoli , which i do n't want you to touch before you eat your dinner or i 'll break your freaking hand . sonny : hey , is -- is -- is the service at this place always this friendly ? olivia : i just felt like you could probably use a little unwinding , you know -- a little touch of the old neighborhood , right ? sonny : ah , you always know what i need . olivia : [ chuckles ] ava : on second thought , maybe we should change the subject . carlos : come on , ava . i mean , you just practically admitted to me that you 're working against your brother . if you can confide in me about that , you can talk to me about this . why was aj -- why was he bugging you about the night connie falconeri died ? ava : because i was there . carlos : you were there ? did you kill her ? ava : i tell you what -- you get us another round ... and i 'll tell you the whole story . delia : i was hoping to see the two of you again . look at that face . i do n't know what it is . there 's just something about you that reminds me of my son johnny . silas : yeah , that 's what you said . delia : [ chuckles ] and you -- hotter than ever . sam : thank you . uh , we 're actually really happy to see you . delia : well , i 'm sure this is a great little reunion , but something tells me that you 're not exactly back here for the burgers . silas : we need your help . delia : you need my help ? a hot p.i . and a fancy brain doctor ? need my help with what ? sam : okay . um ... the story is -- silas : long story short , i 've been accused of attempted murder . delia : attempted murder ? silas : hmm . delia : who do they think he attempted to murder ? sam : his wife . delia : your wife ? ! are you still married ? shame on you ! silas : hey ! delia : no , shame on you , and shame on you , too , helping him cheat with the woman that he tried to kill ! silas : i did n't try to kill my wife ! i did n't try to kill my wife , all right ? i 'm being set up . delia : by who ? silas : your daughter . carlos : you were there the night connie falconeri got shot . why ? ava : to see my brother . you remember at the time , julian was sharing his office with connie , back when he was still using the alias `` derek wells . `` carlos : mm - hmm . ava : he did n't want anybody to know he was really julian jerome . carlos : well , yeah . i mean , back then , it was still working . ava : yeah , it was . that night when i got off the elevator , i spotted aj , and two things were immediately obvious . he was falling - down drunk ... and he had a gun . carlos : what did you do ? ava : i asked him what was happening , `` what have you done ? `` carlos : what did he say ? ava : nothing . he just dropped the gun , and he took off . now , since aj had just lost elq because of the article that julian ran about kiki not really being a quartermaine , i thought ... aj might have killed him . olivia : what 's this ? sonny : nothing for you to worry about . olivia : is that barrett enterprises , as in brenda barrett ? sonny : yeah , but brenda had nothing to do with it . olivia : hmm . so , what 's it doing here ? sonny : um ... i a -- i am trying to find out the identity of julian jerome 's secret backer . ric : may i come in ? rafe : well , no one 's home . i 'm babysitting . maybe it 's best you come back when ms . davis -- ric : i 'm molly 's father . i 'm the `` lansing `` in `` molly lansing - davis . `` rafe : right . yes , yes , yes . i thought i recognized you . ric : thank you . thank you . rafe : come in . molly 's shown me pictures of you . ric : oh , yeah ? are you her boyfriend ? rafe : no . i 'm , uh , just a friend . ric : so , where are my daughter and my ex ? tj : oh . you 're looking for molly ? alexis : no , tj i 'm standing in the doorway of your hotel room looking for sam . tj : carson 's ! alexis : carson 's ? tj : yeah , you know -- studying for the sats and stuff . have you tried -- alexis : stop talking , tj move . get dressed . you are coming home with me -- now . molly : no . i 'm not . molly : i 'm not going anywhere . alexis : you are under the impression that this is a conversation . this is not . get up . get dressed . you are leaving . molly : no , i 'm not . alexis : i am telling you not to push me right now . i am warning you for the last time . molly : good ! if it 's the last time , then you 'll stop saying it ! now leave ! how did you even know i was here anyway ? ! alexis : you do n't worry about how i knew . i knew . molly : but we were n't even doing anything ! alexis : really ? tj does n't have a shirt on , you 're wearing a negligee , and we appear to be standing in the middle of a hotel room . that does n't seem -- molly : well , it is n't your hotel room , so you have no right to be here ! alexis : more nothing . this tells me everything that i need to know about what or was not going on here . molly : you 're right , mom . it tells you that tj and i were being safe , unlike you , who did it in the backseat of a car and got pregnant by him ! where do you get off judging me when i 've already been more responsible than you ever were at my age ? ! alexis : do n't you ever speak to me like that again ! i am your mother , and you are my child . you 're the one who screwed up here , not me . you lied to me and said you were studying for your sats when you come to a hotel to have sex ? molly : way to make it sound cheap , mom ! alexis : i was worried about you ! i thought you were working too hard ! molly : you were the one who told me i should be out having more fun ! alexis : i meant go to the movies or hang out with a friend or go out on a date to a well - lit public space ! i certainly did n't mean this ! tj : ms. davis , please . this whole thing is -- julian : you know what ? i would stay out of this if i were you , kid . alexis : you listen to me , young woman . you are 16 years old , and you are still living under my roof . now you get dressed , and we are leaving . now ! ! ric : well [ sighs ] can you at least tell me if alexis and molly are out together ? rafe : i think maybe ms . davis went to pick molly up . ric : all right . fair enough . from where ? rafe : i do n't know . i 'm just here watching danny . ric : oh , right -- danny . that 's , um -- that 's sam 's little boy . [ chuckles ] rafe : yeah . do -- do you know sam ? ric : oh , sure . she was my stepdaughter . we were very close . rafe : sam 's -- sam 's pretty amazing . ric : uh - huh . listen , uh , i hate to keep asking this , but ... do you have any idea whether alexis and molly are gon na be home soon ? rafe : i do n't know . were they expecting you ? ric : no . i have n't been back to port charles in many years . my visit will be a surprise to everyone . sonny : brenda 's sister , julia , sold controlling interest years ago . olivia : to some anonymous person ? sonny : yes , and it seems like the same person has been funneling money to julian jerome . brenda could n't give me a name , unfortunately , or any more information . olivia : do you believe her ? sonny : well , she has n't given me a reason not to . olivia : i do n't know . if i were you , i do n't know how much i 'd trust her . sonny : well , i mean , that depends on the subject . i would n't consult brenda about anything personal , 'cause we have so much history , she would n't be objective , but , you know , she does n't have anything to do with barrett enterprises or any business . olivia : so , she 'd have nothing to gain by withholding information ? sonny : exactly . and you know why ? because she does n't know who this person is at all . olivia : okay . sonny : no , shawn and i -- we 've been talking about it , you know ? olivia : any ideas ? sonny : no , but whoever it is ... has a serious ax to grind with me . ava : so , i tore into the office , and i 'm gon na be honest with you -- i was terrified . i did n't know what i 'd find . i called out for julian , but when i went into the office , julian was n't there . carlos : connie was ? ava : she would n't let it go . connie : you 're talking about julian jerome . ava : i do n't know what you think you heard . connie : no , i know what i heard , ava . it 's the same thing that derek said on the phone earlier . he referred to himself as `` julian . `` ava : why would he do that ? connie : he gave me some song and dance about as lame as the one you 're giving me . he said he was talking about some artist . but it 's all coming together now . ava : trust me , you do n't know what you 're talking about . connie : i do n't ? then why were sonny 's financial records all over derek 's computer , ava ? ava : why do n't you ask derek ? he owns a newspaper . maybe he 's investigating sonny . connie : yeah , that 's exactly what he 's doing , but it has nothing to do with journalism . you know that derek wells is julian jerome and he 's the one that 's out to get sonny . ava : connie figured it out . and by doing that , she signed her own death warrant . delia : you 're saying that my baby girl , ava , turned into a homewrecker , had an affair with you , then injected your wife with an overdose , and now , two decades later , she 's trying to pin it on you ? silas : yeah , that 's it in a nutshell . sam : and we need to prove it now , before this obsessed cop puts him behind bars for good . delia : okay . so , you need me to help you -- you know , two perfectly wonderful strangers . you want me to get the goods on ava , send her up the river , just to save your bacon ? silas : well , when you put it like that , it sounds like a lot to ask , yeah . sam : lookit -- silas is innocent , and no matter what we try to prove his innocence , we 're just coming up to a dead - end road . so , i know it 's a lot to ask of you to -- delia : hey , hey ! i 'll do it . tj : ms. davis , look , please -- please do n't be mad at molly . this whole thing was my idea . i should have never talked her into any of this . molly . molly . molly : i 'm so sorry . i love you . tj : i love you , too . oh , my gosh ! [ door closes ] julian : i think we need to have a little chat . sam : you 're gon na help us with ava ? delia : sure . why not ? silas : well , we thought it might take a little more convincing or a lot more beers . i mean , this is your daughter we 're going after . delia : i know that , but i have barely had any contact with ava . when i told her who her father was [ sighs ] she did n't want to have anything to do with me . it was all about the jeromes and all their money . silas : that 's ava , all right . delia : hmm . and you told me that i have a granddaughter , so i reached out to ava . i e - mailed her , and i said , `` please send me some pictures of my grandbaby , `` you know , just to see what she was like . you know what she said ? silas : i 'm betting not a damn thing . delia : ding , ding , ding ! we have a winner ! silas : i 'm sorry she blew you off . delia : well , i set myself up for it . silas : you do n't need ava if you want to get to know your granddaughter . what do you say i talk to kiki and get her to hook you up with some photos ? delia : you would really do that for me ? silas : i 'll arrange a visit . delia : [ sighs ] wow . i would really like that . you know , i want to help you . okay . so , if ava 's setting you up and she really tried to kill your wife , she 's gon na pay for it . so , how do we prove that ava is a murderess ? sam : with this . ava : i swear , carlos , i did everything i could to steer connie away from julian . but the more i tried , the more that woman dug in her heels . ava : you watch too many crime shows . everybody knows that julian jerome is dead , and i seriously doubt that he would crawl out of his grave to sneak a peek at sonny 's bank records , and he certainly is n't sharing an office with you . connie : is that right ? well , why do n't we let sonny clear this up for us ? shall we ? ava : go ahead . call sonny . it 'll be a waste of time . connie : oh , ava , i do n't know about that . i 'm sure he 'll be happy to shed some light on this series of coincidences . ava : i could n't let her tell sonny that derek was really julian . we were n't ready yet . but i did n't know how to stop her . and then i remembered aj 's gun . olivia : i hate to break this to you , sonny -- there 's a whole lot of people out there that got axes to grind with you . sonny : yeah . well , that 's why i 've been thinking , you know , that maybe ava jerome can give me some insight . i know what you 're thinking , olivia ! olivia : oh , you do ? really ? you 're psychic , too ? good . i was starting to feel alone in the world . sonny : you do n't trust ava . olivia : do you ? i mean , the woman 's done nothing but lie since the minute she got to this town . sonny : i do n't disagree , but you know what ? all the information she gave me on her brother 's organization has checked out . olivia : okay . okay . maybe that 's true . what makes you think she 's gon na continue being honest ? sonny : i do n't know , olivia . but something -- she 's been -- something she said has been banging around in my head . olivia : and what 's that ? sonny : when i asked her to meet with me to arrange a deal -- olivia : wait , wait , wait -- you mean the deal where she agrees to roll over on her brother in order to continue an inappropriate relationship with your son ? sonny : i take it you do n't approve . olivia : of ava ? sonny : yeah . olivia : no , okay ? i do n't . i do n't . but that 's not the deal . that -- that situation -- it is what it is . you got to handle the situation however you see fit . sonny : that 's why i asked for the meeting . olivia : okay . sonny : but when i get here , aj 's here with ava . olivia : aj ... sonny : right . olivia : ... is here ? sonny : yeah . he wal -- he ca -- he was here . i guess he was looking for jerome . he wanted a job . he did n't know that we had , you know , kicked julian out . olivia : oh , the gigantic corinthos coffee signs were too subtle for him ? god ! the nerve of that guy ! he kills my cousin , he gets off scot - free , and then he 's gon na go work for your enemy ? sonny : okay , it definitely did n't sit right with me . but then something ava said when aj left did n't sit right with me , either . olivia : what 's that ? sonny : she was walking out . olivia : yeah ? sonny : she comes back , and she says to me that she does n't think that aj is the slightest bit sorry for killing connie . ava : i realized there was something i could do to shut connie up . carlos : use aj 's gun . ava : yep -- dropped it in the reception area . connie : come on . ava : put the phone down , connie . you 're not telling sonny anything . connie : [ chuckles ] give it a rest , ava . aj did n't have it in him to shoot me , and neither do you . ava : you 're forgetting something -- i 'm not aj . connie : you 're bluffing . you 're too afraid to pull the trigger . ava : i was n't afraid to pull it on your cousin . connie : you shot olivia ? ava : in fairness , i was aiming for franco . connie : you almost killed her , ava . ava : well , it 's not my fault she jumped in front of a bullet she thought was meant for sonny . she still loves him an awful lot , does n't she ? i know she loves you , too . but , unfortunately , olivia is n't here to take this bullet . connie : all right . you know what ? we do n't have to do this . you do n't want me talking about julian jerome ? fine . end of story . it never happened . ava . ava ... you do n't have to shoot me . [ gasps ] ava : i just did . ric : so , tell me , rafe ... are you sure you do n't know where the women of the house are ? [ danny crying in distance ] rafe : um , i think i hear danny . [ crying continues ] ric : [ chuckles ] [ chuckles ] molly : i can not believe you did this to me ! alexis : what i did ? ! what about what you did to me , molly ? ! molly : you barged in on something beautiful , and you turned it into something ugly ! dad ? alexis : ric ? tj : look , mr. jerome , i get that you care about molly 's family , but what happened tonight -- julian : look , i do n't care about what happened here tonight . tj : you do n't ? ric : mnh - mnh . what i want to talk about is what went down at sonny 's warehouse . tj : i do n't know why . it 's over . it 's history , right ? julian : no , not to me , it 's not . to me , it feels like it happened yesterday . i 'm aware that the cops hauled you in , questioned you about everything you saw . tj : and i did n't tell them anything . i swear . julian : i know that , tj but i think you should . sam : okay . the key witness against silas is a pharmacist named nakamura . silas : he claims that i wrote and he filled a prescription for a liquid antidepressant that caused nina 's overdose . delia : but you did n't , right ? this guy nakamura -- he 's lying through his teeth ? silas : absolutely . we believe that ava stole a scrip from my prescription pad and she forged my name and then she administered the overdose . delia : why is he sticking with his story ? silas : i do n't know . maybe ava threatened him or she paid him off . i mean , either way , we just need to get him to admit it . sam : and that , delia , is where you come in . delia : excellent . how ? silas : well , it would seem that mr. nakamura has a weakness for beautiful blondes -- i mean , at least according to his online dating profile . delia : online dating profile ? silas : mm . sam : yeah . um , and here is the , um -- the one that i took the liberty of making up for you . delia : whoa , whoa ! what -- what -- no , no , no , no . i do n't do online dating . you know , i 'm married to roger . you know , my dating days are done . silas : no , it would n't be a real date . sam : no , not a real date . you would just pretend to go on a date with nakamura . delia : pretend , huh ? silas : mm . delia : i 'm very good at that . so , what do i do on this pretend date ? silas : well , i might be going out on a limb here , but you 're a good talker , are n't you ? delia : [ laughing ] are you kidding ? i 'm an irish bar maid . that 's what i do . sam : excellent . silas : excellent . sam : and that 's exactly what you need to do . you just work him a little bit -- flirt with him , soften him up , use whatever information against ava to kind of ... delia : get him to admit that he 's in cahoots with ava . sam : yes . exactly . silas : exactly . sam : but , in the meantime , we 're gon na need you to record the whole conversation . delia : i got to wear a wire ? ! you know , i have always wanted to do that . sam : yeah ? delia : mm - hmm . silas : well , that 's ... sam : great . silas : ... great . sam : okay , great . well , then , all we need for you to do is , uh , press `` send `` and agree to ... this message . delia : hold on . wait a minute . let me see this . okay . um ... sam : here . it 's over here . delia : okay . all right . that him ? okay . so , it says here , `` you like blondes and i like science - y guys . hit me up and we 'll see if there 's chemistry . `` uh- huh . uh - huh . yeah . well , that sounds like me . sam : great . okay . well , then , what do you say ? let 's get the ball rolling . with any luck , he 'll like what he sees and he 'll hit you . delia : i say let 's do this thing . carlos : you really killed sonny 's girlfriend ? ava : i had no choice . carlos : look , the letters -- the letters in the blood -- `` aj . `` ava : yeah , it did n't stand for `` alan jr. `` carlos : ava jerome . ava : but no one could know that i was ever there , and i made sure of that . carlos : okay , wait . but ... if you -- you shot connie , how were aj 's prints on the gun and yours were n't ? ava : yeah , well , that -- [ chuckles ] that was tricky . after i shot connie , i high - tailed it back to the quartermaines ' . monica and tracy had n't kicked me out yet , so it was n't unusual for me to be there . and i saw aj , passed out , his poor son trying to help him . carlos : so , you got rid of the kid ? ava : yeah , i encouraged him to make a pot of coffee to help sober his father up . carlos : [ chuckles ] ava : when he left the room , i went to work . after i got aj 's prints on the gun , i stashed it in some bushes outside the boathouse . of course , i told aj that i tried to throw it into the lake but i missed . carlos : [ laughs ] he bought that ? ava : i told him i felt bad about it . carlos : you thought of everything . ava : yeah . but there 's just one problem . aj 's starting to remember what really happened . molly : what are you doing here ? alexis : i 'd like to know the answer to that , too . ric : is there something wrong with a father paying a visit to his daughter ? alexis : no , if that 's actually the reason that you 're here . ric : well , you know , it 's gon na be really hard for you to give me a hug from way over there . molly : daddy , it 's so good to see you . ric : oh , you , too , baby . oh , my gosh . look at you . you 're not a little girl anymore . molly : thank you for noticing , but you might want to tell mom that , because she still treats me like a child . ric : oh . is that what you two were arguing about ? molly : ask her . alexis : let 's just say that it was a bad day for you to show up unannounced . ric : you two have always been so tight . i ca n't imagine seeing the two of you shouting at each other like this . alexis : well , maybe if you had been here for the first half of her adolescence , your imagination would be more accommodating . ric : oh , what could she possibly have done , huh ? well , come on . which one of you is gon na tell me what 's going on ? alexis : we had a mother - daughter argument . ric : alexis , i 'm still her father . alexis : really ? ! who knew ? ric : look , what could she have possibly done to make you so angry ? she 's always been such a good girl . alexis : well , your good little girl lied to me and went to a hotel room to have sex with her boyfriend . god knows how many other times she 's done that . molly : never ! tonight was the first time ! tj had gone out of his way to make sure that everything was perfect . we were being safe ! we were being responsible ! we were ready for this ! alexis : molly , i know you think you were ready , but you are far too young . molly : we love each other , mom ! do you know what that means ? ! we were n't doing anything wrong . alexis : ric , will you please tell your daughter that what she did tonight was wrong ? ric : i 'm afraid i ca n't do that , alexis . i agree with molly . sam : okay . we 've set the trap . now we wait . delia : all right . so , doc , let me ask you something . silas : hmm ? delia : you know , uh , i know your wife is in a coma , but have you told her that you 've kind of ... moved on ? silas : i have n't seen nina in almost 20 years . her family has her kept in a secure facility . delia : that 's rough . silas : yeah , it is . delia : but she 's still your wife . silas : technically , yes . delia : really ? silas : mm - hmm . delia : i mean , you know , i have a history , too , but , you know , do n't get me wrong , 'cause i really like you guys , but you 're kind of cheating on your wife with her just like the way you cheated with ava . silas : you know , nina 's been trapped in that bed for almost two decades . that 's about the same amount of time that i 've punished myself . at some point , i just stopped feeling . and sometime after that , it just did n't feel like i had a wife . delia : so , why do n't you get a divorce ? [ computer beeps ] sam : that was fast ! delia : all right ! nakamura took the bait . sam : yes . was there ever any doubt ? okay . now all we have to do is reel him in . silas : but it 's ava we 're gon na catch . ava : aj is not the most stable guy , especially when he 's been drinking . carlos : you think that 's why he was so rough with you just now -- he 's starting to remember you 're actually lying to him ? ava : i think he 's beginning to suspect that there 's more to the story than what i 've told him . carlos : [ sighs ] what does he know ? ava : he remembers seeing me there that night . but he does n't remember that he never fired the gun at connie . carlos : what did you tell him about that night ? ava : i told him that connie was dead by the time i got there . carlos : how 'd you explain picking up the gun ? ava : that i was protecting him to hold on to my connection to elq . and i even told him that i destroyed the security footage of the crime to spare him . carlos : seems a little far - fetched , huh ? ava : carlos , i 'm convincing . [ chuckles ] plus that i admitted that i was really covering for the both of us , because with the security footage gone , no one would know that i had ever been there . carlos : so , you told a lie that was partially the truth . ava : ai n't those the best kind ? carlos : [ clicks tongue ] ava : [ chuckles ] and then all i had to do , of course , was get aj to keep his big mouth shut . carlos : saving his own ass was n't reason enough ? ava : aj quartermaine defines the phrase `` self - destructive . `` i even warned him that if he told anybody that i 'd been there , that i would be forced to confirm beyond a doubt that he is actually the one who killed connie . carlos : well , seems to be working so far . ava : yeah , so far . but you saw aj , carlos . he 's turning into a big problem . if he remembers that he is n't the killer and he tells somebody that i was there , i 'll be in a bit of a pickle . carlos : think he 'd go to the cops ? ava : worse . he 'd go to sonny . and if sonny finds out that i killed connie ... i 'm as dead as she is . olivia : so , wait a minute -- ava jerome told you that aj is not sorry that he killed connie ? sonny : she said he had no remorse . yeah . olivia : okay . wait a minute . aj came here to get a job from julian , and what the hell are they even talking about connie for ? why would they even bring that up ? sonny : i do n't -- maybe because this is where connie died . i know michael 's been saying that , you know , aj 's all torn up and he does n't remember killing her , but that 's a bunch of bull ! i do n't buy it ! he did n't apologize to me , did he ? he apologize to you ? olivia : what , are you kidding me ? sonny : exactly . aj 's got the perfect insurance , you know , policy -- michael begging for his life . he knows that i promised michael that i would n't kill him , so that 's all that it 's about . olivia : it does n't do any good to dwell on this . sonny : well , what if ava 's right ? what if he 's laughing at us -- right ? -- and he 's just -- he 's got one over on us ? olivia : it just -- it makes it worse if you think about it like that . sonny : i swear to god , olivia ... if it 's the last thing i do , i 'm gon na make this son of a bitch pay ... for what he did to our girl . ric : molly , sweetheart , i 'm sorry that your night ended so badly , okay ? molly : see , mom ? ! you 're being totally irrational ! alexis : yes , clearly . all the years that i spent providing you with food , shelter , clothing , and an education has clouded my judgment . by all means , listen to the parent who 's raising you on skype . ric : oh , come on , alexis ! she just told you she was in love . and from what i can see , she and the boy were acting responsibly . molly : we were ! thank you , dad , for seeing that ! alexis : yeah , thanks , dad . so , if you 're a paragon of responsibility , why did n't you tell me where you were going and why did you lie to me ? ric : well , obviously , if she would have told you , you would n't have let her go . molly : or is dad wrong about that ? alexis : no , no , dad 's right . i would n't have let you go , and i would have been right now , too . ric : you have been right to humiliate our daughter in front of her boyfriend and make her feel ashamed ? alexis : where do you get off having an opinion ? ric : oh , sorry . alexis : you were n't here . i have raised our daughter . ric : yes , yes , as you said over and over again , but i did n't really acknowledge it , alexis , as you -- alexis : you just come waltzing in here , telling her that everything she 's done and says is fine , even though what she did and said was stupid ! ric : at least i 'm not the sex police hunting our daughter down in a hotel room ! molly : how did you even know i was there anyway ? you never said . alexis : that is none of your business . julian : i think it 's time that sonny and son were brought to justice , and you 're gon na be the eyewitness who gets that ball rolling . tj : and what if i do n't ? what are you gon na do to me -- kill me ? julian : did i say anything about killing anyone ? tj : no , you did n't say it . julian : oh , that 's right . you did . sonny and his goombah shawn told you not to talk to the cops , so you clammed up . now , that was the right thing to do at the time , but now i strongly urge you to do your civic duty . you go back to anna devane . tell her the whole story from beginning to end about who shot whom at the warehouse . it 's the right thing to do . oh , uh , listen , i 'm sorry that alexis and i messed up your night with molly . if you play your cards right , in a few years , maybe you 'll get another chance , huh ? molly : rafe . you 're here . rafe : yeah . i was just babysitting danny for your mom . molly : oh , really ? was n't it lucky that you just happened to be here when my mom had to come to the metro court to bust in on tj and me ? rafe : molly , i do n't -- molly : you what , rafe ? ! you saw me and tj at the hotel and you had to come running to my mother to tattle on us ? ! i ca n't believe this ! you used to be so cool ! when did you become such a snake , such a nasty little weasel ? ! ric : well , she referred to him as a rodent and a reptile . well , i 'm proud . molly : i should have known rafe was your little spy ! alexis : all right . you are upset . you need to calm down so we can talk about this . molly : talk about this ? ! why would we talk about this when i have nothing to say to you ? ! alexis : [ sighs ] [ footsteps stomp , door slams ] ric : well , i see the two of you are getting along swimmingly in my absence . alexis : thank you so much for your help . [ sighs ] what the hell are you doing here , anyway ? ric : well , is n't it obvious ? i 'm here to see my daughter . sonny : i do n't want to say this out loud , but you know what ? killing aj is always in the back of my mind . olivia : sonny , you ca n't . you can not do that to michael . sonny : why -- why not ? why not ? i mean , i 'd be saving him from years of cleaning up after aj . olivia : but that 's not for you to decide . sonny : i 'm his father . and you know what ? it 's my job to protect my son , and that 's what i 'm doing , you know ? think of it this way -- i 'd be getting justice for connie and freeing michael of that son of a bitch . it would be done ! olivia : you would be breaking his heart . are you really willing to break a promise like that to your son ? sonny : i know i made a promise to michael , but every day it eats me up inside to know that the -- the person who took connie 's life is out there walking around , causing other people pain and sorrow , treating connie 's death like it was nothing ... olivia : sonny ... sonny : ... like it did n't mean anything ! that person has to be punished , has to be taken off the street ... or her death means nothing ! ava : i 've been planting seeds . i 've been trying to stoke sonny 's hatred for aj . i even told him that aj was n't sorry for what he 'd done . carlos : [ snickers ] oh , i bet that pissed corinthos off . ava : unfortunately , not enough for sonny to break his promise to michael . carlos : why would corinthos iii give a damn about aj ? ava : aj is michael 's biological father , and so michael made sonny promise not to kill him . so , if sonny wo n't whack him ... i got to find another way to get aj out of my hair , before he remembers everything and tells someone . carlos : you 're gon na take him out . you gon na kill aj ? delia : `` ca n't wait to meet you , too . how 'bout tomorrow night at ryan 's bar ? `` ryan 's bar ? you want me to have my fake date here ? sam : well , yeah . it 'll give us home - court advantage . silas : home court . delia : okay . i 'll make sure roger goes to the track . silas : yeah , that might be a good idea . delia : so , what about that wire ? sam : um , do n't worry about that . i 'll take care of that before nakamura gets here tomorrow . delia : are you two going back and forth to port charles ? silas : no . we checked in to a hotel around the corner . sam : thank you so much for doing this for us . silas : we appreciate it . delia : hey , no problem . sam : even if it does mean putting your own daughter behind bars ? delia : listen , if ava is guilty , then prison is exactly where she belongs . carlos : ava , you 're gon na kill aj ? ava : i have nothing personal against aj . he 's amusing . he can be charming , except when he 's drinking . now , after he was acquitted of killing connie and the case was shelved , i 'd have been fine letting him live out the rest of his life squandering his family 's money and trying their patience . but some people -- they just are n't wired for happily ever after . aj wo n't let this go . and i ca n't risk him remembering any more than he already has . it 's like what happened to connie . it 's not personal . it 's business . carlos : got to finish him . ava : i ca n't . it 'd be too easy to trace it back to me . i have to ask somebody to do it for me -- someone discreet , professional , trustworthy , someone who could end this with a minimum of collateral damage . carlos : like who ? ava : like you . | silas and sam go to new york to see ava 's mother , delia . she agrees to help them expose ava for framing silas . they tell her about the pharmacist who claims to have filled the prescription for the drug that nina overdosed on . they set up an online dating profile so that delia can meet the pharmacist and charm the truth out of him . silas offers to arrange for delia to meet kiki . delia wonders why silas does n't get a divorce from his wife . | <s>[INST] sam : well , here we are , back at our old stomping ground . silas : yeah , and ava 's . sam : okay . all we have to do is find the person who is going to clear your name . silas : right . and here she is . delia : welcome to ryan 's . st take a seat anywhere . well , if it is n't my two favorite lovebirds . [ knock on door ] molly : who 's that ? tj : they probably got the wrong room . just ignore it . [ knock on door ] molly : they are n't going away . tj : i forgot to put the `` do not disturb `` sign on the door . it 's probably just room service coming back for the dishes . i 'll get rid of them . tj : ms. davis ... and ... mr. jerome . wow . hey . what 's up , guys ? alexis : where is my daughter ? rafe : hi . can i help you ? ric : i hope so . who are you ? rafe : i 'm rafe kovich . and you are ? ric : i 'm ric -- ric lansing . olivia : room service . sonny : ohh ! i am so glad to see you . olivia : you 're just saying that 'cause i brought you food . sonny : what do you mean ? why would you say something like that ? olivia : [ chuckles ] i do n't know . you 've been holed up here all day with michael , and then this powwow with shawn -- i just figured you probably had n't eaten . you have n't , have you ? am i right ? sonny : you -- are you right ? you 're always right . olivia : well , then , you 're in luck , because look what i got you . i got you bracciole , a beautiful bottle of red . i got you can -- cannoli , which i do n't want you to touch before you eat your dinner or i 'll break your freaking hand . sonny : hey , is -- is -- is the service at this place always this friendly ? olivia : i just felt like you could probably use a little unwinding , you know -- a little touch of the old neighborhood , right ? sonny : ah , you always know what i need . olivia : [ chuckles ] ava : on second thought , maybe we should change the subject . carlos : come on , ava . i mean , you just practically admitted to me that you 're working against your brother . if you can confide in me about that , you can talk to me about this . why was aj -- why was he bugging you about the night connie falconeri died ? ava : because i was there . carlos : you were there ? did you kill her ? ava : i tell you what -- you get us another round ... and i 'll tell you the whole story . delia : i was hoping to see the two of you again . look at that face . i do n't know what it is . there 's just something about you that reminds me of my son johnny . silas : yeah , that 's what you said . delia : [ chuckles ] and you -- hotter than ever . sam : thank you . uh , we 're actually really happy to see you . delia : well , i 'm sure this is a great little reunion , but something tells me that you 're not exactly back here for the burgers . silas : we need your help . delia : you need my help ? a hot p.i . and a fancy brain doctor ? need my help with what ? sam : okay . um ... the story is -- silas : long story short , i 've been accused of attempted murder . delia : attempted murder ? silas : hmm . delia : who do they think he attempted to murder ? sam : his wife . delia : your wife ? ! are you still married ? shame on you ! silas : hey ! delia : no , shame on you , and shame on you , too , helping him cheat with the woman that he tried to kill ! silas : i did n't try to kill my wife ! i did n't try to kill my wife , all right ? i 'm being set up . delia : by who ? silas : your daughter . carlos : you were there the night connie falconeri got shot . why ? ava : to see my brother . you remember at the time , julian was sharing his office with connie , back when he was still using the alias `` derek wells . `` carlos : mm - hmm . ava : he did n't want anybody to know he was really julian jerome . carlos : well , yeah . i mean , back then , it was still working . ava : yeah , it was . that night when i got off the elevator , i spotted aj , and two things were immediately obvious . he was falling - down drunk ... and he had a gun . carlos : what did you do ? ava : i asked him what was happening , `` what have you done ? `` carlos : what did he say ? ava : nothing . he just dropped the gun , and he took off . now , since aj had just lost elq because of the article that julian ran about kiki not really being a quartermaine , i thought ... aj might have killed him . olivia : what 's this ? sonny : nothing for you to worry about . olivia : is that barrett enterprises , as in brenda barrett ? sonny : yeah , but brenda had nothing to do with it . olivia : hmm . so , what 's it doing here ? sonny : um ... i a -- i am trying to find out the identity of julian jerome 's secret backer . ric : may i come in ? rafe : well , no one 's home . i 'm babysitting . maybe it 's best you come back when ms . davis -- ric : i 'm molly 's father . i 'm the `` lansing `` in `` molly lansing - davis . `` rafe : right . yes , yes , yes . i thought i recognized you . ric : thank you . thank you . rafe : come in . molly 's shown me pictures of you . ric : oh , yeah ? are you her boyfriend ? rafe : no . i 'm , uh , just a friend . ric : so , where are my daughter and my ex ? tj : oh . you 're looking for molly ? alexis : no , tj i 'm standing in the doorway of your hotel room looking for sam . tj : carson 's ! alexis : carson 's ? tj : yeah , you know -- studying for the sats and stuff . have you tried -- alexis : stop talking , tj move . get dressed . you are coming home with me -- now . molly : no . i 'm not . molly : i 'm not going anywhere . alexis : you are under the impression that this is a conversation . this is not . get up . get dressed . you are leaving . molly : no , i 'm not . alexis : i am telling you not to push me right now . i am warning you for the last time . molly : good ! if it 's the last time , then you 'll stop saying it ! now leave ! how did you even know i was here anyway ? ! alexis : you do n't worry about how i knew . i knew . molly : but we were n't even doing anything ! alexis : really ? tj does n't have a shirt on , you 're wearing a negligee , and we appear to be standing in the middle of a hotel room . that does n't seem -- molly : well , it is n't your hotel room , so you have no right to be here ! alexis : more nothing . this tells me everything that i need to know about what or was not going on here . molly : you 're right , mom . it tells you that tj and i were being safe , unlike you , who did it in the backseat of a car and got pregnant by him ! where do you get off judging me when i 've already been more responsible than you ever were at my age ? ! alexis : do n't you ever speak to me like that again ! i am your mother , and you are my child . you 're the one who screwed up here , not me . you lied to me and said you were studying for your sats when you come to a hotel to have sex ? molly : way to make it sound cheap , mom ! alexis : i was worried about you ! i thought you were working too hard ! molly : you were the one who told me i should be out having more fun ! alexis : i meant go to the movies or hang out with a friend or go out on a date to a well - lit public space ! i certainly did n't mean this ! tj : ms. davis , please . this whole thing is -- julian : you know what ? i would stay out of this if i were you , kid . alexis : you listen to me , young woman . you are 16 years old , and you are still living under my roof . now you get dressed , and we are leaving . now ! ! ric : well [ sighs ] can you at least tell me if alexis and molly are out together ? rafe : i think maybe ms . davis went to pick molly up . ric : all right . fair enough . from where ? rafe : i do n't know . i 'm just here watching danny . ric : oh , right -- danny . that 's , um -- that 's sam 's little boy . [ chuckles ] rafe : yeah . do -- do you know sam ? ric : oh , sure . she was my stepdaughter . we were very close . rafe : sam 's -- sam 's pretty amazing . ric : uh - huh . listen , uh , i hate to keep asking this , but ... do you have any idea whether alexis and molly are gon na be home soon ? rafe : i do n't know . were they expecting you ? ric : no . i have n't been back to port charles in many years . my visit will be a surprise to everyone . sonny : brenda 's sister , julia , sold controlling interest years ago . olivia : to some anonymous person ? sonny : yes , and it seems like the same person has been funneling money to julian jerome . brenda could n't give me a name , unfortunately , or any more information . olivia : do you believe her ? sonny : well , she has n't given me a reason not to . olivia : i do n't know . if i were you , i do n't know how much i 'd trust her . sonny : well , i mean , that depends on the subject . i would n't consult brenda about anything personal , 'cause we have so much history , she would n't be objective , but , you know , she does n't have anything to do with barrett enterprises or any business . olivia : so , she 'd have nothing to gain by withholding information ? sonny : exactly . and you know why ? because she does n't know who this person is at all . olivia : okay . sonny : no , shawn and i -- we 've been talking about it , you know ? olivia : any ideas ? sonny : no , but whoever it is ... has a serious ax to grind with me . ava : so , i tore into the office , and i 'm gon na be honest with you -- i was terrified . i did n't know what i 'd find . i called out for julian , but when i went into the office , julian was n't there . carlos : connie was ? ava : she would n't let it go . connie : you 're talking about julian jerome . ava : i do n't know what you think you heard . connie : no , i know what i heard , ava . it 's the same thing that derek said on the phone earlier . he referred to himself as `` julian . `` ava : why would he do that ? connie : he gave me some song and dance about as lame as the one you 're giving me . he said he was talking about some artist . but it 's all coming together now . ava : trust me , you do n't know what you 're talking about . connie : i do n't ? then why were sonny 's financial records all over derek 's computer , ava ? ava : why do n't you ask derek ? he owns a newspaper . maybe he 's investigating sonny . connie : yeah , that 's exactly what he 's doing , but it has nothing to do with journalism . you know that derek wells is julian jerome and he 's the one that 's out to get sonny . ava : connie figured it out . and by doing that , she signed her own death warrant . delia : you 're saying that my baby girl , ava , turned into a homewrecker , had an affair with you , then injected your wife with an overdose , and now , two decades later , she 's trying to pin it on you ? silas : yeah , that 's it in a nutshell . sam : and we need to prove it now , before this obsessed cop puts him behind bars for good . delia : okay . so , you need me to help you -- you know , two perfectly wonderful strangers . you want me to get the goods on ava , send her up the river , just to save your bacon ? silas : well , when you put it like that , it sounds like a lot to ask , yeah . sam : lookit -- silas is innocent , and no matter what we try to prove his innocence , we 're just coming up to a dead - end road . so , i know it 's a lot to ask of you to -- delia : hey , hey ! i 'll do it . tj : ms. davis , look , please -- please do n't be mad at molly . this whole thing was my idea . i should have never talked her into any of this . molly . molly . molly : i 'm so sorry . i love you . tj : i love you , too . oh , my gosh ! [ door closes ] julian : i think we need to have a little chat . sam : you 're gon na help us with ava ? delia : sure . why not ? silas : well , we thought it might take a little more convincing or a lot more beers . i mean , this is your daughter we 're going after . delia : i know that , but i have barely had any contact with ava . when i told her who her father was [ sighs ] she did n't want to have anything to do with me . it was all about the jeromes and all their money . silas : that 's ava , all right . delia : hmm . and you told me that i have a granddaughter , so i reached out to ava . i e - mailed her , and i said , `` please send me some pictures of my grandbaby , `` you know , just to see what she was like . you know what she said ? silas : i 'm betting not a damn thing . delia : ding , ding , ding ! we have a winner ! silas : i 'm sorry she blew you off . delia : well , i set myself up for it . silas : you do n't need ava if you want to get to know your granddaughter . what do you say i talk to kiki and get her to hook you up with some photos ? delia : you would really do that for me ? silas : i 'll arrange a visit . delia : [ sighs ] wow . i would really like that . you know , i want to help you . okay . so , if ava 's setting you up and she really tried to kill your wife , she 's gon na pay for it . so , how do we prove that ava is a murderess ? sam : with this . ava : i swear , carlos , i did everything i could to steer connie away from julian . but the more i tried , the more that woman dug in her heels . ava : you watch too many crime shows . everybody knows that julian jerome is dead , and i seriously doubt that he would crawl out of his grave to sneak a peek at sonny 's bank records , and he certainly is n't sharing an office with you . connie : is that right ? well , why do n't we let sonny clear this up for us ? shall we ? ava : go ahead . call sonny . it 'll be a waste of time . connie : oh , ava , i do n't know about that . i 'm sure he 'll be happy to shed some light on this series of coincidences . ava : i could n't let her tell sonny that derek was really julian . we were n't ready yet . but i did n't know how to stop her . and then i remembered aj 's gun . olivia : i hate to break this to you , sonny -- there 's a whole lot of people out there that got axes to grind with you . sonny : yeah . well , that 's why i 've been thinking , you know , that maybe ava jerome can give me some insight . i know what you 're thinking , olivia ! olivia : oh , you do ? really ? you 're psychic , too ? good . i was starting to feel alone in the world . sonny : you do n't trust ava . olivia : do you ? i mean , the woman 's done nothing but lie since the minute she got to this town . sonny : i do n't disagree , but you know what ? all the information she gave me on her brother 's organization has checked out . olivia : okay . okay . maybe that 's true . what makes you think she 's gon na continue being honest ? sonny : i do n't know , olivia . but something -- she 's been -- something she said has been banging around in my head . olivia : and what 's that ? sonny : when i asked her to meet with me to arrange a deal -- olivia : wait , wait , wait -- you mean the deal where she agrees to roll over on her brother in order to continue an inappropriate relationship with your son ? sonny : i take it you do n't approve . olivia : of ava ? sonny : yeah . olivia : no , okay ? i do n't . i do n't . but that 's not the deal . that -- that situation -- it is what it is . you got to handle the situation however you see fit . sonny : that 's why i asked for the meeting . olivia : okay . sonny : but when i get here , aj 's here with ava . olivia : aj ... sonny : right . olivia : ... is here ? sonny : yeah . he wal -- he ca -- he was here . i guess he was looking for jerome . he wanted a job . he did n't know that we had , you know , kicked julian out . olivia : oh , the gigantic corinthos coffee signs were too subtle for him ? god ! the nerve of that guy ! he kills my cousin , he gets off scot - free , and then he 's gon na go work for your enemy ? sonny : okay , it definitely did n't sit right with me . but then something ava said when aj left did n't sit right with me , either . olivia : what 's that ? sonny : she was walking out . olivia : yeah ? sonny : she comes back , and she says to me that she does n't think that aj is the slightest bit sorry for killing connie . ava : i realized there was something i could do to shut connie up . carlos : use aj 's gun . ava : yep -- dropped it in the reception area . connie : come on . ava : put the phone down , connie . you 're not telling sonny anything . connie : [ chuckles ] give it a rest , ava . aj did n't have it in him to shoot me , and neither do you . ava : you 're forgetting something -- i 'm not aj . connie : you 're bluffing . you 're too afraid to pull the trigger . ava : i was n't afraid to pull it on your cousin . connie : you shot olivia ? ava : in fairness , i was aiming for franco . connie : you almost killed her , ava . ava : well , it 's not my fault she jumped in front of a bullet she thought was meant for sonny . she still loves him an awful lot , does n't she ? i know she loves you , too . but , unfortunately , olivia is n't here to take this bullet . connie : all right . you know what ? we do n't have to do this . you do n't want me talking about julian jerome ? fine . end of story . it never happened . ava . ava ... you do n't have to shoot me . [ gasps ] ava : i just did . ric : so , tell me , rafe ... are you sure you do n't know where the women of the house are ? [ danny crying in distance ] rafe : um , i think i hear danny . [ crying continues ] ric : [ chuckles ] [ chuckles ] molly : i can not believe you did this to me ! alexis : what i did ? ! what about what you did to me , molly ? ! molly : you barged in on something beautiful , and you turned it into something ugly ! dad ? alexis : ric ? tj : look , mr. jerome , i get that you care about molly 's family , but what happened tonight -- julian : look , i do n't care about what happened here tonight . tj : you do n't ? ric : mnh - mnh . what i want to talk about is what went down at sonny 's warehouse . tj : i do n't know why . it 's over . it 's history , right ? julian : no , not to me , it 's not . to me , it feels like it happened yesterday . i 'm aware that the cops hauled you in , questioned you about everything you saw . tj : and i did n't tell them anything . i swear . julian : i know that , tj but i think you should . sam : okay . the key witness against silas is a pharmacist named nakamura . silas : he claims that i wrote and he filled a prescription for a liquid antidepressant that caused nina 's overdose . delia : but you did n't , right ? this guy nakamura -- he 's lying through his teeth ? silas : absolutely . we believe that ava stole a scrip from my prescription pad and she forged my name and then she administered the overdose . delia : why is he sticking with his story ? silas : i do n't know . maybe ava threatened him or she paid him off . i mean , either way , we just need to get him to admit it . sam : and that , delia , is where you come in . delia : excellent . how ? silas : well , it would seem that mr. nakamura has a weakness for beautiful blondes -- i mean , at least according to his online dating profile . delia : online dating profile ? silas : mm . sam : yeah . um , and here is the , um -- the one that i took the liberty of making up for you . delia : whoa , whoa ! what -- what -- no , no , no , no . i do n't do online dating . you know , i 'm married to roger . you know , my dating days are done . silas : no , it would n't be a real date . sam : no , not a real date . you would just pretend to go on a date with nakamura . delia : pretend , huh ? silas : mm . delia : i 'm very good at that . so , what do i do on this pretend date ? silas : well , i might be going out on a limb here , but you 're a good talker , are n't you ? delia : [ laughing ] are you kidding ? i 'm an irish bar maid . that 's what i do . sam : excellent . silas : excellent . sam : and that 's exactly what you need to do . you just work him a little bit -- flirt with him , soften him up , use whatever information against ava to kind of ... delia : get him to admit that he 's in cahoots with ava . sam : yes . exactly . silas : exactly . sam : but , in the meantime , we 're gon na need you to record the whole conversation . delia : i got to wear a wire ? ! you know , i have always wanted to do that . sam : yeah ? delia : mm - hmm . silas : well , that 's ... sam : great . silas : ... great . sam : okay , great . well , then , all we need for you to do is , uh , press `` send `` and agree to ... this message . delia : hold on . wait a minute . let me see this . okay . um ... sam : here . it 's over here . delia : okay . all right . that him ? okay . so , it says here , `` you like blondes and i like science - y guys . hit me up and we 'll see if there 's chemistry . `` uh- huh . uh - huh . yeah . well , that sounds like me . sam : great . okay . well , then , what do you say ? let 's get the ball rolling . with any luck , he 'll like what he sees and he 'll hit you . delia : i say let 's do this thing . carlos : you really killed sonny 's girlfriend ? ava : i had no choice . carlos : look , the letters -- the letters in the blood -- `` aj . `` ava : yeah , it did n't stand for `` alan jr. `` carlos : ava jerome . ava : but no one could know that i was ever there , and i made sure of that . carlos : okay , wait . but ... if you -- you shot connie , how were aj 's prints on the gun and yours were n't ? ava : yeah , well , that -- [ chuckles ] that was tricky . after i shot connie , i high - tailed it back to the quartermaines ' . monica and tracy had n't kicked me out yet , so it was n't unusual for me to be there . and i saw aj , passed out , his poor son trying to help him . carlos : so , you got rid of the kid ? ava : yeah , i encouraged him to make a pot of coffee to help sober his father up . carlos : [ chuckles ] ava : when he left the room , i went to work . after i got aj 's prints on the gun , i stashed it in some bushes outside the boathouse . of course , i told aj that i tried to throw it into the lake but i missed . carlos : [ laughs ] he bought that ? ava : i told him i felt bad about it . carlos : you thought of everything . ava : yeah . but there 's just one problem . aj 's starting to remember what really happened . molly : what are you doing here ? alexis : i 'd like to know the answer to that , too . ric : is there something wrong with a father paying a visit to his daughter ? alexis : no , if that 's actually the reason that you 're here . ric : well , you know , it 's gon na be really hard for you to give me a hug from way over there . molly : daddy , it 's so good to see you . ric : oh , you , too , baby . oh , my gosh . look at you . you 're not a little girl anymore . molly : thank you for noticing , but you might want to tell mom that , because she still treats me like a child . ric : oh . is that what you two were arguing about ? molly : ask her . alexis : let 's just say that it was a bad day for you to show up unannounced . ric : you two have always been so tight . i ca n't imagine seeing the two of you shouting at each other like this . alexis : well , maybe if you had been here for the first half of her adolescence , your imagination would be more accommodating . ric : oh , what could she possibly have done , huh ? well , come on . which one of you is gon na tell me what 's going on ? alexis : we had a mother - daughter argument . ric : alexis , i 'm still her father . alexis : really ? ! who knew ? ric : look , what could she have possibly done to make you so angry ? she 's always been such a good girl . alexis : well , your good little girl lied to me and went to a hotel room to have sex with her boyfriend . god knows how many other times she 's done that . molly : never ! tonight was the first time ! tj had gone out of his way to make sure that everything was perfect . we were being safe ! we were being responsible ! we were ready for this ! alexis : molly , i know you think you were ready , but you are far too young . molly : we love each other , mom ! do you know what that means ? ! we were n't doing anything wrong . alexis : ric , will you please tell your daughter that what she did tonight was wrong ? ric : i 'm afraid i ca n't do that , alexis . i agree with molly . sam : okay . we 've set the trap . now we wait . delia : all right . so , doc , let me ask you something . silas : hmm ? delia : you know , uh , i know your wife is in a coma , but have you told her that you 've kind of ... moved on ? silas : i have n't seen nina in almost 20 years . her family has her kept in a secure facility . delia : that 's rough . silas : yeah , it is . delia : but she 's still your wife . silas : technically , yes . delia : really ? silas : mm - hmm . delia : i mean , you know , i have a history , too , but , you know , do n't get me wrong , 'cause i really like you guys , but you 're kind of cheating on your wife with her just like the way you cheated with ava . silas : you know , nina 's been trapped in that bed for almost two decades . that 's about the same amount of time that i 've punished myself . at some point , i just stopped feeling . and sometime after that , it just did n't feel like i had a wife . delia : so , why do n't you get a divorce ? [ computer beeps ] sam : that was fast ! delia : all right ! nakamura took the bait . sam : yes . was there ever any doubt ? okay . now all we have to do is reel him in . silas : but it 's ava we 're gon na catch . ava : aj is not the most stable guy , especially when he 's been drinking . carlos : you think that 's why he was so rough with you just now -- he 's starting to remember you 're actually lying to him ? ava : i think he 's beginning to suspect that there 's more to the story than what i 've told him . carlos : [ sighs ] what does he know ? ava : he remembers seeing me there that night . but he does n't remember that he never fired the gun at connie . carlos : what did you tell him about that night ? ava : i told him that connie was dead by the time i got there . carlos : how 'd you explain picking up the gun ? ava : that i was protecting him to hold on to my connection to elq . and i even told him that i destroyed the security footage of the crime to spare him . carlos : seems a little far - fetched , huh ? ava : carlos , i 'm convincing . [ chuckles ] plus that i admitted that i was really covering for the both of us , because with the security footage gone , no one would know that i had ever been there . carlos : so , you told a lie that was partially the truth . ava : ai n't those the best kind ? carlos : [ clicks tongue ] ava : [ chuckles ] and then all i had to do , of course , was get aj to keep his big mouth shut . carlos : saving his own ass was n't reason enough ? ava : aj quartermaine defines the phrase `` self - destructive . `` i even warned him that if he told anybody that i 'd been there , that i would be forced to confirm beyond a doubt that he is actually the one who killed connie . carlos : well , seems to be working so far . ava : yeah , so far . but you saw aj , carlos . he 's turning into a big problem . if he remembers that he is n't the killer and he tells somebody that i was there , i 'll be in a bit of a pickle . carlos : think he 'd go to the cops ? ava : worse . he 'd go to sonny . and if sonny finds out that i killed connie ... i 'm as dead as she is . olivia : so , wait a minute -- ava jerome told you that aj is not sorry that he killed connie ? sonny : she said he had no remorse . yeah . olivia : okay . wait a minute . aj came here to get a job from julian , and what the hell are they even talking about connie for ? why would they even bring that up ? sonny : i do n't -- maybe because this is where connie died . i know michael 's been saying that , you know , aj 's all torn up and he does n't remember killing her , but that 's a bunch of bull ! i do n't buy it ! he did n't apologize to me , did he ? he apologize to you ? olivia : what , are you kidding me ? sonny : exactly . aj 's got the perfect insurance , you know , policy -- michael begging for his life . he knows that i promised michael that i would n't kill him , so that 's all that it 's about . olivia : it does n't do any good to dwell on this . sonny : well , what if ava 's right ? what if he 's laughing at us -- right ? -- and he 's just -- he 's got one over on us ? olivia : it just -- it makes it worse if you think about it like that . sonny : i swear to god , olivia ... if it 's the last thing i do , i 'm gon na make this son of a bitch pay ... for what he did to our girl . ric : molly , sweetheart , i 'm sorry that your night ended so badly , okay ? molly : see , mom ? ! you 're being totally irrational ! alexis : yes , clearly . all the years that i spent providing you with food , shelter , clothing , and an education has clouded my judgment . by all means , listen to the parent who 's raising you on skype . ric : oh , come on , alexis ! she just told you she was in love . and from what i can see , she and the boy were acting responsibly . molly : we were ! thank you , dad , for seeing that ! alexis : yeah , thanks , dad . so , if you 're a paragon of responsibility , why did n't you tell me where you were going and why did you lie to me ? ric : well , obviously , if she would have told you , you would n't have let her go . molly : or is dad wrong about that ? alexis : no , no , dad 's right . i would n't have let you go , and i would have been right now , too . ric : you have been right to humiliate our daughter in front of her boyfriend and make her feel ashamed ? alexis : where do you get off having an opinion ? ric : oh , sorry . alexis : you were n't here . i have raised our daughter . ric : yes , yes , as you said over and over again , but i did n't really acknowledge it , alexis , as you -- alexis : you just come waltzing in here , telling her that everything she 's done and says is fine , even though what she did and said was stupid ! ric : at least i 'm not the sex police hunting our daughter down in a hotel room ! molly : how did you even know i was there anyway ? you never said . alexis : that is none of your business . julian : i think it 's time that sonny and son were brought to justice , and you 're gon na be the eyewitness who gets that ball rolling . tj : and what if i do n't ? what are you gon na do to me -- kill me ? julian : did i say anything about killing anyone ? tj : no , you did n't say it . julian : oh , that 's right . you did . sonny and his goombah shawn told you not to talk to the cops , so you clammed up . now , that was the right thing to do at the time , but now i strongly urge you to do your civic duty . you go back to anna devane . tell her the whole story from beginning to end about who shot whom at the warehouse . it 's the right thing to do . oh , uh , listen , i 'm sorry that alexis and i messed up your night with molly . if you play your cards right , in a few years , maybe you 'll get another chance , huh ? molly : rafe . you 're here . rafe : yeah . i was just babysitting danny for your mom . molly : oh , really ? was n't it lucky that you just happened to be here when my mom had to come to the metro court to bust in on tj and me ? rafe : molly , i do n't -- molly : you what , rafe ? ! you saw me and tj at the hotel and you had to come running to my mother to tattle on us ? ! i ca n't believe this ! you used to be so cool ! when did you become such a snake , such a nasty little weasel ? ! ric : well , she referred to him as a rodent and a reptile . well , i 'm proud . molly : i should have known rafe was your little spy ! alexis : all right . you are upset . you need to calm down so we can talk about this . molly : talk about this ? ! why would we talk about this when i have nothing to say to you ? ! alexis : [ sighs ] [ footsteps stomp , door slams ] ric : well , i see the two of you are getting along swimmingly in my absence . alexis : thank you so much for your help . [ sighs ] what the hell are you doing here , anyway ? ric : well , is n't it obvious ? i 'm here to see my daughter . sonny : i do n't want to say this out loud , but you know what ? killing aj is always in the back of my mind . olivia : sonny , you ca n't . you can not do that to michael . sonny : why -- why not ? why not ? i mean , i 'd be saving him from years of cleaning up after aj . olivia : but that 's not for you to decide . sonny : i 'm his father . and you know what ? it 's my job to protect my son , and that 's what i 'm doing , you know ? think of it this way -- i 'd be getting justice for connie and freeing michael of that son of a bitch . it would be done ! olivia : you would be breaking his heart . are you really willing to break a promise like that to your son ? sonny : i know i made a promise to michael , but every day it eats me up inside to know that the -- the person who took connie 's life is out there walking around , causing other people pain and sorrow , treating connie 's death like it was nothing ... olivia : sonny ... sonny : ... like it did n't mean anything ! that person has to be punished , has to be taken off the street ... or her death means nothing ! ava : i 've been planting seeds . i 've been trying to stoke sonny 's hatred for aj . i even told him that aj was n't sorry for what he 'd done . carlos : [ snickers ] oh , i bet that pissed corinthos off . ava : unfortunately , not enough for sonny to break his promise to michael . carlos : why would corinthos iii give a damn about aj ? ava : aj is michael 's biological father , and so michael made sonny promise not to kill him . so , if sonny wo n't whack him ... i got to find another way to get aj out of my hair , before he remembers everything and tells someone . carlos : you 're gon na take him out . you gon na kill aj ? delia : `` ca n't wait to meet you , too . how 'bout tomorrow night at ryan 's bar ? `` ryan 's bar ? you want me to have my fake date here ? sam : well , yeah . it 'll give us home - court advantage . silas : home court . delia : okay . i 'll make sure roger goes to the track . silas : yeah , that might be a good idea . delia : so , what about that wire ? sam : um , do n't worry about that . i 'll take care of that before nakamura gets here tomorrow . delia : are you two going back and forth to port charles ? silas : no . we checked in to a hotel around the corner . sam : thank you so much for doing this for us . silas : we appreciate it . delia : hey , no problem . sam : even if it does mean putting your own daughter behind bars ? delia : listen , if ava is guilty , then prison is exactly where she belongs . carlos : ava , you 're gon na kill aj ? ava : i have nothing personal against aj . he 's amusing . he can be charming , except when he 's drinking . now , after he was acquitted of killing connie and the case was shelved , i 'd have been fine letting him live out the rest of his life squandering his family 's money and trying their patience . but some people -- they just are n't wired for happily ever after . aj wo n't let this go . and i ca n't risk him remembering any more than he already has . it 's like what happened to connie . it 's not personal . it 's business . carlos : got to finish him . ava : i ca n't . it 'd be too easy to trace it back to me . i have to ask somebody to do it for me -- someone discreet , professional , trustworthy , someone who could end this with a minimum of collateral damage . carlos : like who ? ava : like you .Summarize.[/INST]silas and sam go to new york to see ava 's mother , delia . she agrees to help them expose ava for framing silas . they tell her about the pharmacist who claims to have filled the prescription for the drug that nina overdosed on . they set up an online dating profile so that delia can meet the pharmacist and charm the truth out of him . silas offers to arrange for delia to meet kiki . delia wonders why silas does n't get a divorce from his wife .</s> | 9,829 |
[ kissing sounds ] billy : listen . i will tell victoria . i just need a little bit of time , okay ? i promise . i just want to make sure that nikki 's health is back on track . phyllis : sounds pretty open - ended to me . billy : it 's not open - ended . phyllis : billy ... billy : look . i want the same thing as you -- to be out in the open and we 'll have no secrets , just you and me , together with nothing to hide . do you trust me ? cane : hey . phyllis : hey . cane : hey , you have a good night , okay ? phyllis : thanks . i plan to . you , too . lily : oh , god ! i 'm sorry ! jordan : it 's all good . lily : now you see why i avoid the runway . the same reason why you avoid ice skating parties . jordan : is this about you falling on top of me ? lily : uh , i did not . jordan : oh , that 's right . i meant when you pummeled me on the ice in new york . lily : what ? that is not how it went down ! jordan : really ? because i still have the bruises . lily : i 'm sorry , i would have been fine if you had n't pulled me and dragged me down with you . [ laughing ] really ? i can get the videotape if you want . i know what it 'll show . jordan : yeah , yeah , i would like to see that . lily : [ laughs ] jordan : excuse me one second . is it possible that i can get some champagne ? hilary : careful , lily . hands off . victoria : now , i think relationships are especially challenging for strong women , do n't you think ? juliet : i think i love that you consider me a part of that category . victoria : well , that 's why i hired you . and you 'll see for yourself , if you have n't already ... juliet : in my limited experience , i tend to agree with you . and what you said about wanting billy back , what 's confided in the powder room , stays in the powder room . victoria : thank you . billy : is n't it funny how there 's never any company bonding in the men 's room ? victoria : it depends on the company . billy : [ chuckles ] phyllis : came to talk a little business with ashley and ravi , but from the looks of things , the brash & sassy ! table is having the most fun tonight . cane : yeah . it looks like everyone 's getting something out of the evening , huh ? victoria : [ laughs ] billy : it 's true , though . [ laughter ] jack : hello , victor . nikki : darling ! i 'm so glad you 're home . how was your trip ? victor : enlightening . and i can see i did n't come back a moment too soon . victor : my wife promised me she would protect my family during my absence . i do n't know how that was possible , considering she 's consorting with the likes of you . jordan : were we consorting ? nikki : hardly . sorry to disappoint , dear , but i invited jack over to hear a piano piece i 've been working on . jack : which was lovely , by the way . reminded me of old times . nikki : and then we had a nice , long catch - up chat . jack : so there 's no reason to have a fit of jealousy . nikki 's my ex - wife . she happens to be my favorite ex - wife , but my ex - wife nonetheless . we had some wonderful years , and the time i spent with her raising nicholas and victoria are among the happiest of my life . and then , of course , you came back and ruined it all . victor : you give me entirely too much credit , jack abbott . as i say again , you 've always been capable of ruining all on your own whatever 's good in your life . jack : you , my dear , should be nominated for sainthood . nikki : well , it 's been a lovely visit , jack . jack : yeah , i 'll be on my way . victor , i just wanted to say , i know you 're dealing with painful information about adam 's death and chloe mitchell 's part in it . that must be difficult . adam and i were very close , and when i think of him alone in that cabin , dreaming of a life with chelsea and connor , knowing someone was willfully trying to end that life and all of his dreams ... nikki : jack , as you can imagine , this has come as a big shock to the whole family . jack : i know we have a lot of garbage between us . that aside , father to father , i can only imagine the hell you 're going through , both of you . i 'm very sorry . nikki : thank you . jordan : here we are . hilary : well , that was a fun little story . jordan : what , me and lily ? hilary : you two collapsing in a tangled - up four - legged hot mess , right there in the spotlight ? jordan : yeah , that 's what happened . hilary : and you sure enjoyed telling it . [ chuckles ] jordan : is that a little green - eyed jealousy i 'm detecting ? hilary : no . not from me , sweetie . jordan : okay . hilary : i 'm just trying to picture how cane will react . jordan : lily and i are old friends , working together again . it 's all good . but she 's a wife and a mother first , and i have my own priorities to keep me busy . cane has the score . hilary : and a bit of an aussie temper . jordan : like when he gets wild and freaky after a few beers ? 'cause i heard he does that , too . cane : all right , guys , i want to say something . here you are , sweetheart . lily : oh , thank you . cane : all right , i had my doubts about this little bonding experience , but you know what ? i think it was a brilliant idea , victoria . victoria : thank you . hold on a second , are you serious ? cane : yes . very serious , you know , 'cause i think it 's important that we interact with each other outside of work , 'cause , you know , it humanizes us . billy : maybe one day , you can take us on a walkabout , cane . cane : i 'm not kidding . seriously , you know , because these opportunities , they give us a moment to know things about each other that otherwise we would n't know . billy : so you are being serious . cane : yeah , i mean , you know , think about it . like , take you for example . okay , you know , here you are , you 're pulling out the chairs , refilling the drinks , and taking care of the ladies ... billy : are you saying i have a bright future as a maître d ' ? cane : all right , this is not a cheap shot , all right ? i 'm being genuinely serious with you , because now i have an opportunity to see why the ladies like you so much . you know , because you have this charm and this gift of the gab and , you know , you and i may have this , you know , competitive thing we do at work , but you know what ? at the end of the day , we are on the same team , you know what i mean ? billy : we are all on the same team , and it 's a great team because we all work together . so cheers to that . lily : yes . hear , hear ! victoria : well , i would be lying if i said that i did n't want this to happen , but i was certainly hoping that it would . juliet : we should do this more often . cane : okay , so , then i would like to take an opportunity to make a toast to the lady we owe it all to , okay ? actually , i have a better idea . billy , you can lead us in this one . billy : so , with that being said , let 's raise a glass to the talented , visionary woman who brought this unruly group together and got us all moving in the same direction . cheers to victoria . cane : victoria ! lily : yes ! billy : cheers . victoria : thank you , billy . that was very sweet . i have to say , if there 's one thing that prepared me for this job , as wonderful and terrifying as it may be , is raising two small children and one attitude - impaired teenager . juliet : oh , come on , i 'm sure billy 's attitude has improved over time . billy : hey ! victoria : well , on this occasion , i actually was n't talking about billy , although he can sometimes be ... cane : be what ? a handful ? victoria : um ... cane : huh ? billy : you know what ? [ clears throat ] thank you , everybody . it 's been a great night , but it 's time for me to hit the hay . cane : where you going ? it 's early . billy : oh , you know , i 've got work to do . no rest for the weary . cane : no , it 's `` wicked . `` you mean to say `` no rest for the wicked . `` victoria : it works both ways , so -- billy , why do n't i drive you back to the office so you can get your car , and everybody , please stay , have more drinks , whatever you want . it 's on me . i want you to celebrate . lily : [ giggles ] victoria : good night . lily : thank you ! good night . cane : night . lily : aww . it 's nice seeing victoria in such a good mood . i think it 's mostly about billy , not that she is n't thrilled with the rest of us . cane : no , you 're right . this is all on billy . jordan : all right , now that we have a little space ... hilary : tell me . jordan : juliet let it slip that when cane 's drunk , he gets kind of ... hilary : kind of what ? jordan : cray cray . hilary : [ laughs ] cray cray ? how old are we ? jordan : all right , fine . i heard that he can get a little wild when he throws back a few . hilary : and he was with juliet in tokyo ... maybe this is where she saw this wild - and - crazy cane . jordan : mm . seems logical . hilary : hey ! mariah . can you excuse us for a minute ? jordan : oh , sure . i have to go talk to lily about tomorrow 's shoot anyway . hilary : okay . jordan : excuse me . hilary : how do you feel about a little team - building exercise ? mariah : like brash & sassy ! ? hilary : yeah . why not ? mariah : well , 'cause your show is called `` the hilary hour with hilary curtis . `` key word being hilary . it does n't involve much of a team , so there 's not much to build upon . hilary : okay , please , please , can you just stop ? [ sighs ] i can not believe that you are forcing me to do this right now , but here goes . i could n't pull off the show without you . mariah : are you drunk ? hilary : no . mariah : wait , i 'm -- i 'm confused . are we -- we 're not ... bonding , right ? no . hilary : no . jordan : so , are we all set for tomorrow ? lily : if you insist . lily : well , honey , i hope this team is as built as it 's gon na get 'cause this one 's making me model at the crack of dawn . jordan : it 's an outdoor shoot , so the perfect lighting is essential . lily : yeah , and so is the right amount of sleep . cane : so that 's our cue ? lily : mm - hmm . cane : good night , everyone . lily : juliet , why do n't you walk down with us ? we 'll walk you to your car . bye , guys . devon : hey , jordan . i 'm glad i , uh , caught you alone . ravi : phyllis . phyllis , you -- you have lectured me , you have told me to step up my game , you 've practically told me to dress for the woman that i want to be with -- phyllis : whoa , pump the brakes . ravi : and then why i -- [ exhales sharply ] when i finally get her to agree to go out on a date with me -- phyllis : a date ? tonight ? ravi : yeah . phyllis : was a date - date ? ravi : that was the plan . phyllis : i had no idea . ravi : you had no idea ? me and ashley alone , at night , fancy restaurant ? none of that registered for you ? phyllis : a date ... ravi : why is this so shocking ? i mean , why would you take me out and buy me all those clothes if the thought of us being together was that incomprehensible ? was it just a game to you ? phyllis : no . ravi : it was , was n't it ? it was just a game , telling me to go after some woman you clearly consider out of my league , which is exactly what i told you when you started with this torture experiment . phyllis : okay , stop ! hey ! hold on ! you 're wonderful . you 're attractive . you got more going on than you have ever believed . maybe i thought ashley would never take you seriously . ravi : what , you never even considered the possibility ? phyllis : i did n't think she had the character , honestly . and that would have been her loss . i thought you deserved the best . i still do . why did n't you say something ? ravi : i do n't know . did n't want to make it a thing . too much pressure . phyllis : i 'm really sorry . ravi : thanks . why 'd you even come ? you barely even spoke to us . phyllis : eh , i did n't want to be alone . ravi : i get that . phyllis : all right . i screwed up , all right ? my bad . but that does not mean you are hopeless . ravi : i think it does . phyllis : uh , no . go after her . now . ravi : really ? phyllis : yeah . a guy shows up on my doorstep , tries to fix things , to prove to me that i 'm important to him ? that is the melting point of the female heart . believe me . i 'm telling you the truth . go . ravi : okay . phyllis : go ! ravi : all right , all right . [ sighs ] ashley : hi . jack : hey . ashley : just dropping off a swag - bag for mrs. martinez from the conference in new york . jack : how very thoughtful of you . ashley : yeah . jack : surprised to see you earlier . how was your dinner with ravi ? ashley : it would have been better if phyllis had n't joined us . she kind of barged in . jack : ooh , dear . date night officially became a business dinner ? ashley : oh , look at you . you know , i enjoy spending time with ravi because he 's so intelligent . he can talk about opera , he can talk about technology , he can talking about solid ... jack : my , things have heated up since new york . you 're a busy woman . this is awfully convenient . ashley : yeah , well , at least we know why ravi 's actually at jabot , unlike your friend gloria . jack : lay off of gloria . she has specific skills . ashley : do you ever hear what 's coming out of your mouth ? jack : gloria is doing excellent work . i consider her an asset . ashley : well , you 're the only one , jack . jack : well , she does n't work for you . ashley : why does she work for you , actually ? you know very well she ca n't be trusted . jack : you 're wrong . ashley : we should get rid of her . give me one reason why we ca n't . jack : because i do n't want to . ashley : jack , that 's ridiculous . jack : because i like having her around ! ashley : no , you do n't ! jack : because gloria and i have -- ashley : gloria and you what ? no ... no ! oh , my god . no ! victor : you dare bring jack abbott into this house , making it more painfully obvious that you 're shutting me out of our family ? he must have gobbled up your version of events like a hungry animal . nikki : are you referring to the truth ? because i said nothing about that . i promised i would keep your secret , and i did because my word actually means something . victor : so , nothing has changed in my absence ? nikki : where was that ? victor : none of your business ! i honestly thought you had come to your senses while i was gone , stopped being irrational . nikki : you 're calling me irrational ? victor : you bet . nikki : unbelievable . i 'm going to bed . victor : now , wait for one second . think about this . seriously . i understand if nicholas and victoria are turning their back on me . they 've done that before . they 've stabbed me in the back before . but i thought that you -- you of all people -- would understand me . nikki : is that what you think ? victor : that 's what i think . victor : what , dean miller brought this by for you ? nikki : yes , and it put me in a very awkward position , just as you wanted . victor : why would that put you in an awkward position ? i just , you know , obviously wanted to do something for you and then build this research facility so you could this fight damnable disease . nikki : in a gesture so grand that i could n't possibly stay mad at you . victor : your reaction did n't play into this at all . i wanted to do something , okay ? make amends for the death of my son . nikki : i see that . victor : why are you so cold ? nicholas and victoria turning against me , i 'm used to . they 've done that before . they 've put the knife in my back before ! but you ? you 're the love of my life . the hell is the matter with you ? you turn against me ? you know i did n't want adam killed ! nikki : it does n't mean that you 're not responsible . or that i 'll let you stay in this house with me . devon : jordan , it 's cool , man . we do n't have to play games 'cause i know that you and hilary are n't just friends . jordan : that 's right . but you did say you did n't have a problem with us dating , so ... devon : i sure did , um , but here 's the thing . we 've been through a lot , and hilary and i have seen the best and the worst in each other , and right now , you 're getting hilary 's best -- her beauty , charisma ... jordan : come on , man . she 's a force of nature . devon : if it 's a tsunami . jordan : well , it seems you survived it . and like you said before , you do n't need to worry about it anymore . devon : well , sure , but i still want what 's best for hilary , you know ? jordan : no disrespect , but that 's probably why your marriage did n't work out , because you do n't know what that is . devon : that 's fair . um , i 'm just trying to give you some friendly advice , though , man . hilary gets insecure , and when that happens , she starts to try and manipulate people in situations . jordan : i like high - maintenance women , you know ? they keep it interesting . and i 'm happy to know they 're not out for my money 'cause i ai n't got none . devon : [ chuckles ] all right , well , you do n't need money , man , but good luck with hurricane hilary . hilary : oh , look . more bonding , and they do n't even work together . mariah : must be this place . i guess there 's something about a $ 20 caesar salad that just brings the world together . ashley : look , jack , right now , i need you to be as honest with me as you 've ever been in your entire life , okay ? gloria and you are ... jack : friends . we 're friends . ashley : why did you take that pause ? gloria and i have developed a complicated relationship . ashley : oh , my god , you 're sleeping with her . jack : we are friends ! with benefits . ashley : oh , my god . no ! do you have any idea how wrong this is on so many levels ? she was your step - mother , jack ! jack : stop it , stop it ! i am not ashamed ! ashley : you should be ashamed ! jack : it may be difficult to comprehend what gloria and i have ... ashley : nobody should ever have to comprehend this situation ever ! jack : but it works for us ! just like your friendship with ravi . ashley : oh , do n't you dare do that . ravi and gloria are not in the same category . are you kidding me ? completely different situations ! what you 're trying to do right now is you 're trying to deflect . and i am not done with you . victoria : you were awfully quiet in the car . billy : well , it 's , uh , been a long day . victoria : no , come on . tell me the truth . what are your thoughts on tonight ? billy : i thought tonight was awesome . i thought everybody had a really good time , and i think it was great for morale . victoria : yeah , well , you seemed a little eager to escape . billy : i just , uh , have been out of the office a lot lately , and i need to get some work done . victoria : that is the hard work that i am talking about . [ sighs ] billy ... i hope you know i meant everything that i said about you tonight . billy : yeah . no , of course i do . it 's just -- you do n't have to single me out like that . it 's a little embarrassing . victoria : what ? are you kidding me ? praise ? when does billy abbott ever take issue with compliments ? come on . billy : since never , but ... my issue is n't with you . it 's with cane . lily : well , you were really quiet in the car . cane : yeah . lily : everything okay ? cane : yeah , i 'm okay . lily : is this about billy ? cane : you know what , i 've known him for years . he lies and manipulates and does n't care about the consequences , does he ? lily : honey , can we please save the corporate rivalry for the office ? we 're home now , okay ? cane : yeah , well , this is a little bit more than just work . [ sighs ] all right , look ... i go to get your coat from the , uh , cloak room , all right ? i hear billy and phyllis talking behind the curtain . lily : yeah ? so what ? cane : they were talking like they were back together . lily : [ scoffs ] they broke up a long time ago . cane : okay , and you do n't think he has it in him to get back with phyllis and not tell victoria ? lily : well , i 'd really like to give him the benefit of the doubt . cane : well , you do n't have to give him the benefit of the doubt , i just told you . listen , he was giving her excuses as to why he has n't told victoria . lily : oh , my god . cane : it is obvious that victoria still loves him . i mean , she 's making her priority trying to put their relationship back together , and i just ... i just do n't want to see her get her heart broken again . that 's all . ashley : how can you possibly stand there with a straight face and tell me that gloria is the only woman in this world that can supply you with those benefits that you need ? jack : it happened . it happened , okay ? i ca n't explain it . can we just leave it at that ? ashley : no , we ca n't , jack . phyllis broke your heart when she cheated on you . jack : thank you . i do n't need a reminder . ashley : this is what you do when you feel abandoned . this goes back to our mother leaving us , does n't it ? tell me i 'm wrong . [ doorbell rings ] jack : well , look who 's here . come on in ! ravi : hey , jack , uh ... [ clears throat ] jack : she 's right here . she 's all yours . ravi : thanks . ashley : hey , ravi . what 's up ? jack : i 'm taking off . ashley : to be continued , jackie . ravi : um ... ashley : hey . ravi : hi . ashley : hi . ashley : aww ! victor : how do you intend to continue this farce of family unity if you kick me out of my own house ? nikki : quite easily . we have a lovely guesthouse just steps away . you 'll be moving in tonight . victor : you 're barring me from my own house . nikki : not at all . feel free to come by and get your mail , but let 's keep those visits to an absolute minimum . victor : what if someone starts asking me why i developed this sudden fondness for my guesthouse ? nikki : you can just tell them that you need the separate space while you 're working on that whitewash you call a biography . victor : you 're serious , are n't you ? nikki : you 're damn right , i am . lily : are you forgetting that billy and victoria are divorced and phyllis is single ? they can hook up with whoever they want to . cane : okay , it 's obvious you 're missing the point here , okay ? the way she talks about him , it 's obvious that she wants to reconcile things . lily : please tell me you 're not gon na use this to get back at billy ... cane : listen , i am just concerned for her . because the way she talks to him or about him is always weighted with the hope that somehow she can fix her broken family . lily : cane , i do n't want victoria to get hurt , either , but it 's none of our business . so please , i 'm begging you , just stay out of it . jack : what are you doing here so late ? is lauren cracking a whip ? phyllis : oh , she does n't have to . i 'm a self - starter , remember ? jack : i 'm sorry your evening was so dull . i just left ashley at the house with her surprise guest . i guess ravi was n't ready for their date to end so quickly . phyllis : oh , good . you know , ravi 's a real catch . he has a lot more going on for him than you give him credit for . jack : thank you , ashley just gave me an itemized list of all of ravi 's sterling qualities . phyllis : good for her . jack : chief among them , he 's the anti - ben hochman . phyllis : ugh . definitely a plus . jack : you know , i understand where ashley 's coming from . i mean , there 's a lot to be said for easy and uncomplicated , no pressure , no expectations ... hopefully ravi 's on the same page . i guess we all have our life lessons to learn . phyllis : oh , we certainly do . jack : i think of nikki and that ongoing saga she has with her crashing bore of a husband . i saw her tonight . phyllis : nikki ? jack : yeah , i saw her at the tower . she invited me back to the ranch , but victor walked in and -- wham ! -- it was over . phyllis : wait , so she 's feeling well enough to go out ? hilary : look at us -- in the same room , all dressed up , and acting like sophisticated adults . jordan : speaking of classy , how about hilary 's shout - out to devon on today 's show ? devon : i really appreciated it . hilary : and it was quick , it was clean , and no lingering weirdness from my public as i move forward . as we move forward . mariah : [ mouths ] thank you . devon : well , i 'm very happy for you . really . jordan : okay , guys . i have a sunrise shoot . i need to get this lady home . hilary : good night . devon : have a good night . mariah : night . jordan : all right , i 'll see you later . devon : all right . let 's go pay . mariah : are you sure that you 're okay ? 'cause that could n't have been easy . devon : i 'll tell you , i am better than okay . i am excellent , actually . do you have any idea how different it feels to be able to completely trust the person that i 'm with and not have to read into every word you say or look for hidden agendas ? mariah : no . i ca n't say that i do . devon : well , i 'll tell you , it was like i have been underwater for the last few years with a scuba tank , and now i 'm on land , breathing fresh air because of you . i mean that . you 've always had my back . you never ask for anything in return . i do n't think you really know how special you are . mariah : you know you do n't have to do that . i mean , i do n't need it to function . i 'm not hilary . devon : i know you 're not , and i ca n't tell you how grateful i am for that fact . in fact , i 'd like to show you how grateful i am . phyllis : i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to pry into nikki 's health . jack : what about nikki 's health ? phyllis : i thought her m.s . was flaring up again . jack : where did you hear that ? no , she seemed fine to me . in fact , she seemed better than fine , better than i had seen her in a long time . she talked about getting her mojo back , invited me out to the ranch to hear a new piano piece she was working on ... phyllis : tonight ? jack : yeah , i told you ! she was terrific . until victor stomped in and started doing his `` lord of the manor `` shtick and -- bang ! -- that was it . visit over . phyllis : [ chuckles ] that bastard . billy : look , i do n't want my griping to ruin the night . it 's just -- cane 's been getting on my nerves lately with this passive - aggressive defensive thing he 's doing . victoria : i know , i do n't understand . i mean , i 've been very vocal about letting him know how well he 's been doing , especially since he teamed up with juliet . i do n't know why he would be so insecure suddenly . billy : 'cause he 's a giant pain in the -- victoria : he is a very devoted and skilled executive . billy : with an ego the size of the outback . victoria : all right , well , more importantly , you and i are in a good place . despite my efforts to sabotage things . billy : that did n't happen , okay ? do n't worry about that . victoria : billy , look , it 's okay . i 'm not pretending anymore , all right ? i kissed you , and the next minute , i froze you out , and i 'm really sorry about that . i just -- i do n't want to ruin any progress that we 've made , you know ? billy : vick , you did n't ruin anything , okay , so let 's just forget that . victoria : that 's very sweet of you . i have an idea . why do n't you come by the house and say good night to johnny and katie ? billy : i mean , i would , but it 's just -- i mean ... they 're probably sleeping already . victoria : oh , hannah texted me earlier . they 've been a little on the rambunctious side tonight . [ chuckles ] a visit from you might calm them down a little bit , actually . billy : yeah . sure . why not ? cane : i 'm not in this for me , all right ? i told you , i just want to protect victoria 'cause she has no idea that billy and phyllis are back on . lily : and you should n't be the one to tell her . cane : okay , well , he 's not gon na do it , and she 's not gon na call him up and have a heart - to - heart , now , is she ? lily : cane , look , you had so much insecurity around your job when victoria took over . then you go to tokyo , and you proved your worth to the company . you do n't need this . cane : and victoria does n't need this , either . lily : you are gon na embarrass the hell out of her , and billy will be out for blood . and another reason to keep quiet is you , me , and juliet . victor : so , obviously , you 're not finished with this so - called lesson of yours . nikki : victor , i 'm far from finished . victor : are you trying to challenge me ? knock yourself out ! i do n't need -- nikki : what ? you do n't need what ? victor : i do n't need any of you ! nikki : you do n't me , you do n't need the family ? victor : how dare you turn your back on me ! nikki : and yet you always expect us to fall in line for you , always forgive you , do n't you ? well , not this time ! victor : you 're all a bunch of hypocrites ! ashley : well , thank you again for dinner , but we should have expensed it because phyllis turned it into a fenmore 's online strategy meeting , after all . ravi : i should have told phyllis not to tag along . ashley : i should have told her to leave . she 's always be more persistent than sensible . ravi : what were we supposed to say ? `` we 're on a date ? `` i mean , that sounds so -- ashley : high school ? ravi : yes ! ashley : i know . i know . i mean , that 's exactly why i did n't tell jack that we had gone out . you know , not because i feel embarrassed , because i do n't . i just did n't want him to , you know , barrage you with all these obnoxious third- degree questions and everything . ravi : that 's very sweet , but i can handle a little interrogation from jack . ashley : no doubt . also , ravi , i did n't want him to ... kind of belittle a situation that i feel is kind of special . ravi : thank you . ashley : yeah . ravi : well , um , i should ... ashley : oh , yeah . okay . ravi : you know , i 'd like to try it again . this time , without a chaperone . ashley : okay ! that sounds -- that sounds wonderful . ravi : great . ashley : okay , good night . ravi : good night . hilary : [ laughs ] thank you for a delightful evening . jordan : well , who said this night has to end ? hilary : ohh . [ sighs ] that is ... that 's very tempting , but i have an early morning , and so do you . jordan : yeah , i have to get up bright and early and , uh , greet the sunrise . hilary : mm , camera in hand . jordan : yeah . okay , good night , hilary . hilary : night , jordan . lily : look , hiring juliet was a game - changer for both of us , and victoria loves the work that you guys are doing together . so please do n't mess that up by getting involved in some workplace sex drama . cane : okay . all right . i agree with you . lily : and you know , i think the fact that you and i work so well together , even if we 're not interacting day - to - day just shows how solid we are . so , whatever is going on with billy , victoria , phyllis , just please stay as far away from it as possible because it 's not gon na end well . okay ? cane : okay . you 're right . [ sighs ] victoria : well , i am so glad we 've gotten past whatever that was . billy : yep . i just really wish you would have told me about nikki 's m.s . earlier , that 's all . victoria : no more keeping secrets . i promise . [ next_on ] phyllis : i will not be the other woman . you are not gon na play me that way . stop it ! kevin : well , it turns out that i 'm bella 's biological father . gloria : hmm . | ravi is upset with phyllis for interrupting his date with ashley . phyllis apologizes and promises not to do it again . ravi stops by ashley 's house to give her a rose , and they agree to go on another date . ashley finds out about jack 's friends with benefits relationship with gloria , and ashley and jack argue about it . cane finds out about billy 's relationship with phyllis . when he tells lily the news , she pleads with him not to tell victoria the truth . hilary tells lily to stay away from jordan , because she gets jealous when she sees lily and jordan talking to each other . devon warns jordan about hilary 's bad side , but jordan says he likes strong women and he can handle hilary . devon and mariah continue to get closer as he sees more of her personality . jack tells phyllis that he does n't think that nikki 's ms is flaring up , because she looked very healthy when he saw her earlier tonight . victor returns home and asks nikki to stop being so cold to him , but she tells him to move into the guest house . victoria tells billy he should go by the house and say goodnight to the kids and gives him a hug to thank him for being so supportive about nikki 's illness . phyllis is n't happy when she drops by to see billy and sees him hugging victoria . | <s>[INST] [ kissing sounds ] billy : listen . i will tell victoria . i just need a little bit of time , okay ? i promise . i just want to make sure that nikki 's health is back on track . phyllis : sounds pretty open - ended to me . billy : it 's not open - ended . phyllis : billy ... billy : look . i want the same thing as you -- to be out in the open and we 'll have no secrets , just you and me , together with nothing to hide . do you trust me ? cane : hey . phyllis : hey . cane : hey , you have a good night , okay ? phyllis : thanks . i plan to . you , too . lily : oh , god ! i 'm sorry ! jordan : it 's all good . lily : now you see why i avoid the runway . the same reason why you avoid ice skating parties . jordan : is this about you falling on top of me ? lily : uh , i did not . jordan : oh , that 's right . i meant when you pummeled me on the ice in new york . lily : what ? that is not how it went down ! jordan : really ? because i still have the bruises . lily : i 'm sorry , i would have been fine if you had n't pulled me and dragged me down with you . [ laughing ] really ? i can get the videotape if you want . i know what it 'll show . jordan : yeah , yeah , i would like to see that . lily : [ laughs ] jordan : excuse me one second . is it possible that i can get some champagne ? hilary : careful , lily . hands off . victoria : now , i think relationships are especially challenging for strong women , do n't you think ? juliet : i think i love that you consider me a part of that category . victoria : well , that 's why i hired you . and you 'll see for yourself , if you have n't already ... juliet : in my limited experience , i tend to agree with you . and what you said about wanting billy back , what 's confided in the powder room , stays in the powder room . victoria : thank you . billy : is n't it funny how there 's never any company bonding in the men 's room ? victoria : it depends on the company . billy : [ chuckles ] phyllis : came to talk a little business with ashley and ravi , but from the looks of things , the brash & sassy ! table is having the most fun tonight . cane : yeah . it looks like everyone 's getting something out of the evening , huh ? victoria : [ laughs ] billy : it 's true , though . [ laughter ] jack : hello , victor . nikki : darling ! i 'm so glad you 're home . how was your trip ? victor : enlightening . and i can see i did n't come back a moment too soon . victor : my wife promised me she would protect my family during my absence . i do n't know how that was possible , considering she 's consorting with the likes of you . jordan : were we consorting ? nikki : hardly . sorry to disappoint , dear , but i invited jack over to hear a piano piece i 've been working on . jack : which was lovely , by the way . reminded me of old times . nikki : and then we had a nice , long catch - up chat . jack : so there 's no reason to have a fit of jealousy . nikki 's my ex - wife . she happens to be my favorite ex - wife , but my ex - wife nonetheless . we had some wonderful years , and the time i spent with her raising nicholas and victoria are among the happiest of my life . and then , of course , you came back and ruined it all . victor : you give me entirely too much credit , jack abbott . as i say again , you 've always been capable of ruining all on your own whatever 's good in your life . jack : you , my dear , should be nominated for sainthood . nikki : well , it 's been a lovely visit , jack . jack : yeah , i 'll be on my way . victor , i just wanted to say , i know you 're dealing with painful information about adam 's death and chloe mitchell 's part in it . that must be difficult . adam and i were very close , and when i think of him alone in that cabin , dreaming of a life with chelsea and connor , knowing someone was willfully trying to end that life and all of his dreams ... nikki : jack , as you can imagine , this has come as a big shock to the whole family . jack : i know we have a lot of garbage between us . that aside , father to father , i can only imagine the hell you 're going through , both of you . i 'm very sorry . nikki : thank you . jordan : here we are . hilary : well , that was a fun little story . jordan : what , me and lily ? hilary : you two collapsing in a tangled - up four - legged hot mess , right there in the spotlight ? jordan : yeah , that 's what happened . hilary : and you sure enjoyed telling it . [ chuckles ] jordan : is that a little green - eyed jealousy i 'm detecting ? hilary : no . not from me , sweetie . jordan : okay . hilary : i 'm just trying to picture how cane will react . jordan : lily and i are old friends , working together again . it 's all good . but she 's a wife and a mother first , and i have my own priorities to keep me busy . cane has the score . hilary : and a bit of an aussie temper . jordan : like when he gets wild and freaky after a few beers ? 'cause i heard he does that , too . cane : all right , guys , i want to say something . here you are , sweetheart . lily : oh , thank you . cane : all right , i had my doubts about this little bonding experience , but you know what ? i think it was a brilliant idea , victoria . victoria : thank you . hold on a second , are you serious ? cane : yes . very serious , you know , 'cause i think it 's important that we interact with each other outside of work , 'cause , you know , it humanizes us . billy : maybe one day , you can take us on a walkabout , cane . cane : i 'm not kidding . seriously , you know , because these opportunities , they give us a moment to know things about each other that otherwise we would n't know . billy : so you are being serious . cane : yeah , i mean , you know , think about it . like , take you for example . okay , you know , here you are , you 're pulling out the chairs , refilling the drinks , and taking care of the ladies ... billy : are you saying i have a bright future as a maître d ' ? cane : all right , this is not a cheap shot , all right ? i 'm being genuinely serious with you , because now i have an opportunity to see why the ladies like you so much . you know , because you have this charm and this gift of the gab and , you know , you and i may have this , you know , competitive thing we do at work , but you know what ? at the end of the day , we are on the same team , you know what i mean ? billy : we are all on the same team , and it 's a great team because we all work together . so cheers to that . lily : yes . hear , hear ! victoria : well , i would be lying if i said that i did n't want this to happen , but i was certainly hoping that it would . juliet : we should do this more often . cane : okay , so , then i would like to take an opportunity to make a toast to the lady we owe it all to , okay ? actually , i have a better idea . billy , you can lead us in this one . billy : so , with that being said , let 's raise a glass to the talented , visionary woman who brought this unruly group together and got us all moving in the same direction . cheers to victoria . cane : victoria ! lily : yes ! billy : cheers . victoria : thank you , billy . that was very sweet . i have to say , if there 's one thing that prepared me for this job , as wonderful and terrifying as it may be , is raising two small children and one attitude - impaired teenager . juliet : oh , come on , i 'm sure billy 's attitude has improved over time . billy : hey ! victoria : well , on this occasion , i actually was n't talking about billy , although he can sometimes be ... cane : be what ? a handful ? victoria : um ... cane : huh ? billy : you know what ? [ clears throat ] thank you , everybody . it 's been a great night , but it 's time for me to hit the hay . cane : where you going ? it 's early . billy : oh , you know , i 've got work to do . no rest for the weary . cane : no , it 's `` wicked . `` you mean to say `` no rest for the wicked . `` victoria : it works both ways , so -- billy , why do n't i drive you back to the office so you can get your car , and everybody , please stay , have more drinks , whatever you want . it 's on me . i want you to celebrate . lily : [ giggles ] victoria : good night . lily : thank you ! good night . cane : night . lily : aww . it 's nice seeing victoria in such a good mood . i think it 's mostly about billy , not that she is n't thrilled with the rest of us . cane : no , you 're right . this is all on billy . jordan : all right , now that we have a little space ... hilary : tell me . jordan : juliet let it slip that when cane 's drunk , he gets kind of ... hilary : kind of what ? jordan : cray cray . hilary : [ laughs ] cray cray ? how old are we ? jordan : all right , fine . i heard that he can get a little wild when he throws back a few . hilary : and he was with juliet in tokyo ... maybe this is where she saw this wild - and - crazy cane . jordan : mm . seems logical . hilary : hey ! mariah . can you excuse us for a minute ? jordan : oh , sure . i have to go talk to lily about tomorrow 's shoot anyway . hilary : okay . jordan : excuse me . hilary : how do you feel about a little team - building exercise ? mariah : like brash & sassy ! ? hilary : yeah . why not ? mariah : well , 'cause your show is called `` the hilary hour with hilary curtis . `` key word being hilary . it does n't involve much of a team , so there 's not much to build upon . hilary : okay , please , please , can you just stop ? [ sighs ] i can not believe that you are forcing me to do this right now , but here goes . i could n't pull off the show without you . mariah : are you drunk ? hilary : no . mariah : wait , i 'm -- i 'm confused . are we -- we 're not ... bonding , right ? no . hilary : no . jordan : so , are we all set for tomorrow ? lily : if you insist . lily : well , honey , i hope this team is as built as it 's gon na get 'cause this one 's making me model at the crack of dawn . jordan : it 's an outdoor shoot , so the perfect lighting is essential . lily : yeah , and so is the right amount of sleep . cane : so that 's our cue ? lily : mm - hmm . cane : good night , everyone . lily : juliet , why do n't you walk down with us ? we 'll walk you to your car . bye , guys . devon : hey , jordan . i 'm glad i , uh , caught you alone . ravi : phyllis . phyllis , you -- you have lectured me , you have told me to step up my game , you 've practically told me to dress for the woman that i want to be with -- phyllis : whoa , pump the brakes . ravi : and then why i -- [ exhales sharply ] when i finally get her to agree to go out on a date with me -- phyllis : a date ? tonight ? ravi : yeah . phyllis : was a date - date ? ravi : that was the plan . phyllis : i had no idea . ravi : you had no idea ? me and ashley alone , at night , fancy restaurant ? none of that registered for you ? phyllis : a date ... ravi : why is this so shocking ? i mean , why would you take me out and buy me all those clothes if the thought of us being together was that incomprehensible ? was it just a game to you ? phyllis : no . ravi : it was , was n't it ? it was just a game , telling me to go after some woman you clearly consider out of my league , which is exactly what i told you when you started with this torture experiment . phyllis : okay , stop ! hey ! hold on ! you 're wonderful . you 're attractive . you got more going on than you have ever believed . maybe i thought ashley would never take you seriously . ravi : what , you never even considered the possibility ? phyllis : i did n't think she had the character , honestly . and that would have been her loss . i thought you deserved the best . i still do . why did n't you say something ? ravi : i do n't know . did n't want to make it a thing . too much pressure . phyllis : i 'm really sorry . ravi : thanks . why 'd you even come ? you barely even spoke to us . phyllis : eh , i did n't want to be alone . ravi : i get that . phyllis : all right . i screwed up , all right ? my bad . but that does not mean you are hopeless . ravi : i think it does . phyllis : uh , no . go after her . now . ravi : really ? phyllis : yeah . a guy shows up on my doorstep , tries to fix things , to prove to me that i 'm important to him ? that is the melting point of the female heart . believe me . i 'm telling you the truth . go . ravi : okay . phyllis : go ! ravi : all right , all right . [ sighs ] ashley : hi . jack : hey . ashley : just dropping off a swag - bag for mrs. martinez from the conference in new york . jack : how very thoughtful of you . ashley : yeah . jack : surprised to see you earlier . how was your dinner with ravi ? ashley : it would have been better if phyllis had n't joined us . she kind of barged in . jack : ooh , dear . date night officially became a business dinner ? ashley : oh , look at you . you know , i enjoy spending time with ravi because he 's so intelligent . he can talk about opera , he can talk about technology , he can talking about solid ... jack : my , things have heated up since new york . you 're a busy woman . this is awfully convenient . ashley : yeah , well , at least we know why ravi 's actually at jabot , unlike your friend gloria . jack : lay off of gloria . she has specific skills . ashley : do you ever hear what 's coming out of your mouth ? jack : gloria is doing excellent work . i consider her an asset . ashley : well , you 're the only one , jack . jack : well , she does n't work for you . ashley : why does she work for you , actually ? you know very well she ca n't be trusted . jack : you 're wrong . ashley : we should get rid of her . give me one reason why we ca n't . jack : because i do n't want to . ashley : jack , that 's ridiculous . jack : because i like having her around ! ashley : no , you do n't ! jack : because gloria and i have -- ashley : gloria and you what ? no ... no ! oh , my god . no ! victor : you dare bring jack abbott into this house , making it more painfully obvious that you 're shutting me out of our family ? he must have gobbled up your version of events like a hungry animal . nikki : are you referring to the truth ? because i said nothing about that . i promised i would keep your secret , and i did because my word actually means something . victor : so , nothing has changed in my absence ? nikki : where was that ? victor : none of your business ! i honestly thought you had come to your senses while i was gone , stopped being irrational . nikki : you 're calling me irrational ? victor : you bet . nikki : unbelievable . i 'm going to bed . victor : now , wait for one second . think about this . seriously . i understand if nicholas and victoria are turning their back on me . they 've done that before . they 've stabbed me in the back before . but i thought that you -- you of all people -- would understand me . nikki : is that what you think ? victor : that 's what i think . victor : what , dean miller brought this by for you ? nikki : yes , and it put me in a very awkward position , just as you wanted . victor : why would that put you in an awkward position ? i just , you know , obviously wanted to do something for you and then build this research facility so you could this fight damnable disease . nikki : in a gesture so grand that i could n't possibly stay mad at you . victor : your reaction did n't play into this at all . i wanted to do something , okay ? make amends for the death of my son . nikki : i see that . victor : why are you so cold ? nicholas and victoria turning against me , i 'm used to . they 've done that before . they 've put the knife in my back before ! but you ? you 're the love of my life . the hell is the matter with you ? you turn against me ? you know i did n't want adam killed ! nikki : it does n't mean that you 're not responsible . or that i 'll let you stay in this house with me . devon : jordan , it 's cool , man . we do n't have to play games 'cause i know that you and hilary are n't just friends . jordan : that 's right . but you did say you did n't have a problem with us dating , so ... devon : i sure did , um , but here 's the thing . we 've been through a lot , and hilary and i have seen the best and the worst in each other , and right now , you 're getting hilary 's best -- her beauty , charisma ... jordan : come on , man . she 's a force of nature . devon : if it 's a tsunami . jordan : well , it seems you survived it . and like you said before , you do n't need to worry about it anymore . devon : well , sure , but i still want what 's best for hilary , you know ? jordan : no disrespect , but that 's probably why your marriage did n't work out , because you do n't know what that is . devon : that 's fair . um , i 'm just trying to give you some friendly advice , though , man . hilary gets insecure , and when that happens , she starts to try and manipulate people in situations . jordan : i like high - maintenance women , you know ? they keep it interesting . and i 'm happy to know they 're not out for my money 'cause i ai n't got none . devon : [ chuckles ] all right , well , you do n't need money , man , but good luck with hurricane hilary . hilary : oh , look . more bonding , and they do n't even work together . mariah : must be this place . i guess there 's something about a $ 20 caesar salad that just brings the world together . ashley : look , jack , right now , i need you to be as honest with me as you 've ever been in your entire life , okay ? gloria and you are ... jack : friends . we 're friends . ashley : why did you take that pause ? gloria and i have developed a complicated relationship . ashley : oh , my god , you 're sleeping with her . jack : we are friends ! with benefits . ashley : oh , my god . no ! do you have any idea how wrong this is on so many levels ? she was your step - mother , jack ! jack : stop it , stop it ! i am not ashamed ! ashley : you should be ashamed ! jack : it may be difficult to comprehend what gloria and i have ... ashley : nobody should ever have to comprehend this situation ever ! jack : but it works for us ! just like your friendship with ravi . ashley : oh , do n't you dare do that . ravi and gloria are not in the same category . are you kidding me ? completely different situations ! what you 're trying to do right now is you 're trying to deflect . and i am not done with you . victoria : you were awfully quiet in the car . billy : well , it 's , uh , been a long day . victoria : no , come on . tell me the truth . what are your thoughts on tonight ? billy : i thought tonight was awesome . i thought everybody had a really good time , and i think it was great for morale . victoria : yeah , well , you seemed a little eager to escape . billy : i just , uh , have been out of the office a lot lately , and i need to get some work done . victoria : that is the hard work that i am talking about . [ sighs ] billy ... i hope you know i meant everything that i said about you tonight . billy : yeah . no , of course i do . it 's just -- you do n't have to single me out like that . it 's a little embarrassing . victoria : what ? are you kidding me ? praise ? when does billy abbott ever take issue with compliments ? come on . billy : since never , but ... my issue is n't with you . it 's with cane . lily : well , you were really quiet in the car . cane : yeah . lily : everything okay ? cane : yeah , i 'm okay . lily : is this about billy ? cane : you know what , i 've known him for years . he lies and manipulates and does n't care about the consequences , does he ? lily : honey , can we please save the corporate rivalry for the office ? we 're home now , okay ? cane : yeah , well , this is a little bit more than just work . [ sighs ] all right , look ... i go to get your coat from the , uh , cloak room , all right ? i hear billy and phyllis talking behind the curtain . lily : yeah ? so what ? cane : they were talking like they were back together . lily : [ scoffs ] they broke up a long time ago . cane : okay , and you do n't think he has it in him to get back with phyllis and not tell victoria ? lily : well , i 'd really like to give him the benefit of the doubt . cane : well , you do n't have to give him the benefit of the doubt , i just told you . listen , he was giving her excuses as to why he has n't told victoria . lily : oh , my god . cane : it is obvious that victoria still loves him . i mean , she 's making her priority trying to put their relationship back together , and i just ... i just do n't want to see her get her heart broken again . that 's all . ashley : how can you possibly stand there with a straight face and tell me that gloria is the only woman in this world that can supply you with those benefits that you need ? jack : it happened . it happened , okay ? i ca n't explain it . can we just leave it at that ? ashley : no , we ca n't , jack . phyllis broke your heart when she cheated on you . jack : thank you . i do n't need a reminder . ashley : this is what you do when you feel abandoned . this goes back to our mother leaving us , does n't it ? tell me i 'm wrong . [ doorbell rings ] jack : well , look who 's here . come on in ! ravi : hey , jack , uh ... [ clears throat ] jack : she 's right here . she 's all yours . ravi : thanks . ashley : hey , ravi . what 's up ? jack : i 'm taking off . ashley : to be continued , jackie . ravi : um ... ashley : hey . ravi : hi . ashley : hi . ashley : aww ! victor : how do you intend to continue this farce of family unity if you kick me out of my own house ? nikki : quite easily . we have a lovely guesthouse just steps away . you 'll be moving in tonight . victor : you 're barring me from my own house . nikki : not at all . feel free to come by and get your mail , but let 's keep those visits to an absolute minimum . victor : what if someone starts asking me why i developed this sudden fondness for my guesthouse ? nikki : you can just tell them that you need the separate space while you 're working on that whitewash you call a biography . victor : you 're serious , are n't you ? nikki : you 're damn right , i am . lily : are you forgetting that billy and victoria are divorced and phyllis is single ? they can hook up with whoever they want to . cane : okay , it 's obvious you 're missing the point here , okay ? the way she talks about him , it 's obvious that she wants to reconcile things . lily : please tell me you 're not gon na use this to get back at billy ... cane : listen , i am just concerned for her . because the way she talks to him or about him is always weighted with the hope that somehow she can fix her broken family . lily : cane , i do n't want victoria to get hurt , either , but it 's none of our business . so please , i 'm begging you , just stay out of it . jack : what are you doing here so late ? is lauren cracking a whip ? phyllis : oh , she does n't have to . i 'm a self - starter , remember ? jack : i 'm sorry your evening was so dull . i just left ashley at the house with her surprise guest . i guess ravi was n't ready for their date to end so quickly . phyllis : oh , good . you know , ravi 's a real catch . he has a lot more going on for him than you give him credit for . jack : thank you , ashley just gave me an itemized list of all of ravi 's sterling qualities . phyllis : good for her . jack : chief among them , he 's the anti - ben hochman . phyllis : ugh . definitely a plus . jack : you know , i understand where ashley 's coming from . i mean , there 's a lot to be said for easy and uncomplicated , no pressure , no expectations ... hopefully ravi 's on the same page . i guess we all have our life lessons to learn . phyllis : oh , we certainly do . jack : i think of nikki and that ongoing saga she has with her crashing bore of a husband . i saw her tonight . phyllis : nikki ? jack : yeah , i saw her at the tower . she invited me back to the ranch , but victor walked in and -- wham ! -- it was over . phyllis : wait , so she 's feeling well enough to go out ? hilary : look at us -- in the same room , all dressed up , and acting like sophisticated adults . jordan : speaking of classy , how about hilary 's shout - out to devon on today 's show ? devon : i really appreciated it . hilary : and it was quick , it was clean , and no lingering weirdness from my public as i move forward . as we move forward . mariah : [ mouths ] thank you . devon : well , i 'm very happy for you . really . jordan : okay , guys . i have a sunrise shoot . i need to get this lady home . hilary : good night . devon : have a good night . mariah : night . jordan : all right , i 'll see you later . devon : all right . let 's go pay . mariah : are you sure that you 're okay ? 'cause that could n't have been easy . devon : i 'll tell you , i am better than okay . i am excellent , actually . do you have any idea how different it feels to be able to completely trust the person that i 'm with and not have to read into every word you say or look for hidden agendas ? mariah : no . i ca n't say that i do . devon : well , i 'll tell you , it was like i have been underwater for the last few years with a scuba tank , and now i 'm on land , breathing fresh air because of you . i mean that . you 've always had my back . you never ask for anything in return . i do n't think you really know how special you are . mariah : you know you do n't have to do that . i mean , i do n't need it to function . i 'm not hilary . devon : i know you 're not , and i ca n't tell you how grateful i am for that fact . in fact , i 'd like to show you how grateful i am . phyllis : i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to pry into nikki 's health . jack : what about nikki 's health ? phyllis : i thought her m.s . was flaring up again . jack : where did you hear that ? no , she seemed fine to me . in fact , she seemed better than fine , better than i had seen her in a long time . she talked about getting her mojo back , invited me out to the ranch to hear a new piano piece she was working on ... phyllis : tonight ? jack : yeah , i told you ! she was terrific . until victor stomped in and started doing his `` lord of the manor `` shtick and -- bang ! -- that was it . visit over . phyllis : [ chuckles ] that bastard . billy : look , i do n't want my griping to ruin the night . it 's just -- cane 's been getting on my nerves lately with this passive - aggressive defensive thing he 's doing . victoria : i know , i do n't understand . i mean , i 've been very vocal about letting him know how well he 's been doing , especially since he teamed up with juliet . i do n't know why he would be so insecure suddenly . billy : 'cause he 's a giant pain in the -- victoria : he is a very devoted and skilled executive . billy : with an ego the size of the outback . victoria : all right , well , more importantly , you and i are in a good place . despite my efforts to sabotage things . billy : that did n't happen , okay ? do n't worry about that . victoria : billy , look , it 's okay . i 'm not pretending anymore , all right ? i kissed you , and the next minute , i froze you out , and i 'm really sorry about that . i just -- i do n't want to ruin any progress that we 've made , you know ? billy : vick , you did n't ruin anything , okay , so let 's just forget that . victoria : that 's very sweet of you . i have an idea . why do n't you come by the house and say good night to johnny and katie ? billy : i mean , i would , but it 's just -- i mean ... they 're probably sleeping already . victoria : oh , hannah texted me earlier . they 've been a little on the rambunctious side tonight .

nikki : darling , there is nothing you can do about this computer situation except sit here and fume . and i think it would be good for business if we went . victor : in what way ? nikki : well , think about it . seeing us out and about , being social , together and happy -- that sends a certain message . i mean , a powerful man is one thing , but a powerful couple -- now , that is unstoppable . victor : i can see what you 're doing . nikki : so , is that a yes ?

i mean , come on , devon . you own the club , and lily has been knocking herself out trying to put this even together . hilary : well , lily 's not a person that would be thrilled to see me , but ... i 'd like to go . devon : well , i really was n't planning on , uh -- on going . neil : no ? you are n't ? well , abby 's right . we should all support lily , so we 're going . cane : you know , it feels kind of wicked to have you all to myself before all the guests arrive . lily : yeah , but it feels right . it is valentine 's day . cane : it 's our special holiday . lily : yeah . it 's the day that we first made love and the day we got married . happy valentine 's day . billy : well , i 'm sure you 'll oppose this marriage , just like you fought my relationship with victoria from the get - go . victor : then why waste our time ? billy : oh , that 's a good point . it 's not gon na change the fact that i 'm gon na marry her . victor : i do n't think it 's entirely up to you , now , is it ? billy : well , luckily , she wants this just as much as i want this . so , you can try and mess this up . you can try and break us up . hell , you can try and have us both arrested this time . it 's not gon na change . i 'm gon na marry her because i love her . and i 'm gon na fight for her just like she would fight for me and for our family . victor : hell of a speech , billy boy . ai n't enough to change my feelings where you 're concerned . nikki : well , i , on the other hand , am very happy for both of you . billy : thank you , nikki . nikki : but before you continue to protest , i 'd like you to consider a few things . victor : oh , there 's nothing to consider . nikki : please . think now about everything that victoria said and did when billy was in the hospital , how desperately she wanted to have another chance with him . and they 've been so happy now that billy 's home with johnny and katie . i mean , those kids will be so thrilled to know that their father is back with their mother officially . now , do n't fight this , victor . think about the grandchildren . think about our daughter . victor : i think our daughter has convinced herself that things will be different this time . but we all know they wo n't . but there 's nothing i can do about it . i guess she 's made up her mind . billy : well , it 's not exactly `` congratulations , `` but i suppose that 's the best that you can do , right ? victor : the best thing i can do right now is to admit that you were man enough to come here , and i appreciate that , okay ? billy : good , but that 's not the only reason why i 'm here . i got a favor to ask you . summer : victoria , i just think that you need to back off just a little bit . victoria : summer , your id badge is brand - spanking - new . you do not have the experience to be talking to me about this right now . summer : okay , i just do n't think that you can tell me what i 'm seeing in my own place , okay ? natalie is working at that keyboard constantly . she was here late last night and again before the sun came up . she 's not blowing this thing off . victoria : she has this program in her head . no one can get to it . she has us by the -- summer : okay , okay . so , everybody says that she 's a genius , right ? they tend to do things their own way . and , yes , natalie may be difficult and annoying at times -- victoria : all the time . summer : okay , yes , but she is not -- she 's not lazy . and as a person , she ... may be , sometimes , okay . victoria : you sound like you 're starting to like her . summer : no . i do not think i 'll ever get to the point of liking her . but , i mean , you ca n't live with someone without starting to get to know them a little bit . victoria : [ sighs ] okay , then . tell me what you figured out about her , because i 'm totally at a loss . summer : well , so far , all i can tell is that natalie is -- her whole life is her computer . it 's who she is . it 's what she does . victoria : but it 's not what she wants ? summer : i do n't know . i mean , she probably would n't admit it , but i think that she longs for a regular life and maybe one day to give up the whole hacking thing . victoria : well , she ca n't do that . she ca n't walk away from this job , not until she comes up with a working program . summer : okay , then just please trust me . does n't everybody just deserve one night out ? just a night off ? just let her start fresh tomorrow . victoria : summer , there 's a lot of work to be done . this is n't some class project . this is a multi - million - dollar piece of business . summer : okay , and i get that . trust me . i totally get that . but does n't everyone just deserve a night to just ... let their hair down and , i do n't know , relax a little bit ? [ cell phone chimes ] victoria : [ sighs ] summer : what 's up ? victoria : [ chuckles ] it 's a valentine 's day invitation . summer : see ? victoria : [ laughs ] summer : even you deserve a night off . is it from billy ? victoria : i 'm actually not 100 % sure . it 's in italian . summer : [ laughs ] romantic . i did n't know uncle billy spoke italian . victoria : oh , god . he does n't . he does n't . trust me . he must have used some online translator . summer : what does it say ? victoria : `` amore mio , saró in attesa per te in cima al mondo . `` `` my love , meet me at the top of the world . `` [ laughs ] cane : shh . [ both laughing ] lily : oh , lipstick . cane : okay . can you get it ? lily : okay . yeah . cane : let me straighten this up for you . lily : okay . thank you . [ speaking indistinctly ] cane : we cool ? hey . nikki : lily . the decorations are beautiful . lily : oh , thank you . yeah , please , enjoy yourself . have some goodies , and just have a great evening . victor : thank you . nikki : i 'm sure we will . lily : yeah . cane : all right . have fun . nikki : okay . thanks . hey . victor : what ? nikki : you 're sulking . victor : well , are you surprised after that conversation with billy ? nikki : it is victoria 's choice . victor : it 's a ruinous choice . nikki : well , the heart wants what the heart wants , does n't it ? but i am proud of you for granting billy his favor . victor : i did that for your sake . you know that ? look who 's here . our granddaughter 's here . nikki : darling . natalie : you do n't have to give me that look or the lecture that comes with it . victoria has already done that . ooh , look . champagne . summer : yeah . i know you 're probably angry to see us . nikki : not at all , honey . i mean , you look gorgeous . summer : thank you , grandma . so do you . nikki : thanks , sweetie . summer : hi . [ smooches ] victor : sweetheart . summer : look , i - i made an executive decision , and natalie insisted on coming , so i thought she could use a breather . victor : no , that 's all right . it 's okay . summer : it -- it is ? victor : well , i did n't ask you to control her . i just asked you to keep an eye on her , and that 's what you 're doing . and i like that , okay ? summer : okay . victor : all right . summer : i 'll -- i 'll keep doing that . victor : you do that . summer : okay . victor : okay . well . abby : hi ! happy valentine 's day . nikki : you , too . victor : happy valentine 's day to you . abby : hi . you look beautiful . nikki : thank you . so do you . where is your husband ? abby : well , he is doctoring , but he will be here soon . victor : uh - huh . abby : so , summer 's working for newman now . victor : yes . i 'm very happy that summer 's on board . i wish you had stayed . abby : that 's very sweet of you to say , but i like having this time with mom . and it 's kind of cool to be a part of cutting - edge medical research . victor : oh , yeah ? abby : mm - hmm . [ chuckles ] [ indistinct talking ] [ italian music plays ] victoria : [ chuckles ] thank you . billy : it 's not quite the top of the world , but it 's the best that i could do . victoria : billy , it 's , um -- billy : it 's venice -- a city for romance , a city for lovers . victoria : thank you . [ chuckles ] billy : no , no . we 're just getting started . let me show you around .

[ sighs ] vick , i have let you down more times than i can count . and the -- the fear of that , the inevitability of that is what kept me from doing this until i was firmly reminded just how temporary all of this is and how lucky i am to have you , the kids , your friendship , your love , your faith in us . i love you so much . so , will you open that big , beautiful heart of yours and let me in to stay this time ? will you marry me ? again ? victoria : yes . yes . yes . billy : let 's do this right . [ indistinct talking ] lily : [ laughs ] i 'm really thirsty . that was quite a workout we had . cane : let me get you a drink . lily : okay . hurry back . [ chuckles ] devon : hey . it 's nice to see you and cane together like this . lily : well , i wish i could say the same about you and your companion . hilary : and that 's my cue . devon : no . you do n't have to go anywhere . lily , you do n't have to start anything , please . we just wanted to tell you that we had a good conversation with neil . lily : well , good . i 'm glad he took my advice and listened to me . and it 's really important that you and i are there for him . hilary : we 're all on the same side . lily : i really doubt that . hilary : okay . even though we have issues , lily , we both still care about neil and devon . lily : [ laughs ] really ? you do ? devon : lily , come on . lily : okay , because we 're in the middle of a party that i really want to enjoy , i 'm gon na go mingle with the other guests . hilary : well ... devon : what 's that smile about ? hilary : well , lily did n't rip into me and cause a scene , so things are looking up . devon : you 're right . neil : [ coughs ] dr. neville : i have to admit . i am , once again , amazed by your energy and your drive . ashley : well , you know what ? i think you 're pretty amazing , too . dr. neville : no , no , no . i mean , it . if i did n't know differently , i would swear that you were perfectly healthy . ashley : well , you know why , right ? i took that medication you gave me . i 'm feeling better by the minute . i really am . dr. neville : excellent . ashley : in fact ... why do n't we get out of here for a little while ? dr. neville : early dinner . ashley : no . hors d'oeuvres . the valentine 's day party . cane : you know what ? you did a great job with this . everybody 's having a wonderful time . lily : thank you . cane : you 're welcome . lily : i wanted to make tonight memorable . oh ! speaking of which ... cane : hmm ? all right . what is it ? lily : just to commemorate the occasion . cane : i did n't get you anything . i 'm sorry . lily : that 's fine . i know that we wanted to take things slow , but things have been better between us . cane : yeah . yeah , they have , huh ? you know , we still have some stuff we have to resolve . that 's why i have n't come home . i do n't want to confuse the kids . lily : yeah . of course you do n't . um , speaking of which , i should go get them , actually . cane : i 'll walk you out . lily : you 're not gon na come back to the house ? cane : i , um , have some work i have to do . i 'll see you soon , though , okay ? lily : yeah . soon . cane : okay . come on . victoria : it 's so pretty . is it ruby red for valentine 's day ? billy : the color of love , passion , everything i feel when i 'm with you . victoria : you know , last night , you said you would be planning to get married sooner than i thought . were you planning this all along ? billy : kind of came to me today . let 's just say i had a little help from an angel . victor : what ? nikki : if you go home with me ... victor : oh , really ? nikki : ... we can have that very private valentine 's celebration . victor : well , you know something ? let 's get the hell out of here . nikki : let 's go . victor : let 's go . summer : that 's good that you and stitch are making progress . on the max front , though . abby : yeah . natalie : i do n't really think they are . summer : what do you mean ? natalie : well , we 've been here awhile , and abby 's still alone at this party . where 's her husband ? abby : good question . stitch : what happened ? dr. neville : well , we were leaving the lab at jabot , and she must still be weak from having the flu . she passed out , hit her head . and the -- the attending in e.r . insisted we check her in for observation . it 's -- it 's nothing . i 'm sure it 's not serious . stitch : nothing ? ! she could have serious injuries . get out of the way . ashley , i 'm gon na run some tests , okay ? ashley : absolutely not . no . devon : i do n't , uh , i do n't see neil , so he must have taken off . hilary : well , even if he just came for a little bit , it 's good that he came . devon : yeah . hilary : i think tonight was good for all of us . do n't you think ? devon : yeah . i have to admit -- it 's -- it 's a lot more fun than , uh , overseeing things at the lab . hilary : well , i have to admit something , too . devon : what 's that ? hilary : i 'm happy being here with you . it just -- it feels so easy and so right . do n't you feel it ? devon : it is nice to smile and laugh with you again . hilary : i know i blindsided you when i told you that i wanted to be with you again . but everything i said was true , devon . the only reason i turned to neil after that accident was -- it was out of guilt and fear and ... you are the love of my life . every time i 'm with you , i just want to hold you and ... touch you like i used to . billy : [ smooches ] [ next_on ] phyllis : i do n't want her to be pulled into his web . jack : she 's as smart as it gets . luca : surprise . | the residents of genoa city celebrate valentine 's day in a romantic way . billy proposes to victoria with an italian - themed evening at the top of the tower after delia comes to him in a dream and tells him not to wait any longer and take advantage of his second chance at life . cane and lily celebrate their anniversary by making love to each other . the rest of the town celebrates at the athletic club party . summer is disappointed when kyle ca n't come home to be with her , because he has too much business to handle in new york . abby is happy that stitch enrolled max in school and promises to move back home . ashley passes out and is rushed to the hospital where she refuses to let stitch run tests on her . abby wonders why stitch is late for the party . victoria is frustrated with natalie 's lack of progress with the computer project but allows her to go to the party . hilary tells devon she loves him and wants to be with him again . this causes a drunk neil to trip and knock over some trays and fall to the floor . | <s>[INST] neil : wow . lily : yeah , i 've sampled them both , so let 's go with the 2008 vintage over the 2012 . okay . thank you . neil : hey . lily : hi . neil : wow . you really pulled this place together fast . talk about a - a nice transformation . lily : yeah , thanks . you do n't think it 's too reserved ? neil : oh , no , no . i think it 's absolutely perfect . so , why 'd you , uh -- why 'd you need my help with any of this ? lily : um ... i do n't . neil : you do n't ? but your text -- lily : yeah , i - i asked you to come here because devon told me what happened at the lab yesterday . neil : i was having a bad day . lily : no , dad . i think it went beyond that . neil : [ sighs ] lily : you 're drinking again . devon : i have n't spoken to neil since he stormed out on us yesterday . hilary : did you try calling him ? devon : wo n't answer the phone . hilary : and you think that working with us is gon na be too much for him . devon : well , do n't you ? this is how everything started last time . he -- he started having flashes of losing it and then secretly drinking . hilary : and then he caused the accident where christine williams lost her baby . devon : exactly . and i , uh -- i ca n't let that happen again . i 've been up all night , debating my choices . hilary : and ? are you gon na fire your father ? ashley : question , neville ? dr. neville : uh , well , it 's , um -- it is valentine 's day . ashley : that 's actually a statement . dr. neville : oh , i see . uh , okay . here 's the , uh -- the question . do you , uh , have ... any plans ? ashley : me ? of course i do . dr. neville : oh . ashley : first work and then sleep . dr. neville : ah . ashley : i feel better than i did yesterday , but i 'm still not feeling all that great , so ... dr. neville : oh , well , by all means . i - i - i think i have something that , uh , will make you feel a little better . at least , i hope so . it 's a present . ashley : really ? you should n't have . dr. neville : well , i - i could n't resist . so ... um ... well ... for you , m'lady . abby : ben ! hey . [ chuckles ] stitch : hey , baby . what are you doing here ? abby : um , i wanted to drop off your valentine 's day gift . stitch : wait . why are you giving it to me now ? abby : because we 're not gon na celebrate together . summer : yeah . happy valentine 's day to you , too . natalie : long - distance kyle is n't coming home today ? summer : uh ... no , he 's slammed with work for jabot in new york , so he ca n't leave . natalie : that 's weird . summer : uh , what 's weird ? natalie : well , he 's this big , rich guy . ca n't he just hop on the company jet ? summer : no . his family 's not quite so rich anymore . natalie : so he flies coach . summer : he ca n't just -- just take -- natalie : it 's just a couple of hours . and you 've spent days picking out your dress and your shoes and the jewelry for this party . is n't a guy supposed to be with his girlfriend tonight of all nights , no matter what ? summer : [ sighs ] nikki : well , you were out of the house very early this morning . victor : well , the reason i am is because this computer nerd , this whiz kid is not as brilliant as i was led to believe . i mean , this program is a mess ! nikki : hmm . victor : what are you doing ? nikki : i 'm reminding you what 's important . we have plans , remember ? victor : oh . i see . nikki : today is for us and nothing else . billy : delia ? delia : hi , daddy . billy : hey . you 're here . delia : just for a little while . i had to see you today . billy : happy birthday . delia : my birthday is n't the only reason why i 'm here . billy : what better reason is there to be here ? delia : i got to come down to find out why you 're not asking victoria to marry you . billy : [ chuckles ] delia : i mean , you guys are together . that 's why you got to come back to life . billy : yeah . it 's not that i do n't want to ask victoria to marry me . delia : then what is it ? billy : i just need to ... figure out the right time , the right way to ask her . i want it to be special , you know ? delia : it 's valentine 's day . duh . billy : [ chuckles ] is that for me ? delia : it 's old . i made it for you and victoria a long time ago . billy : it 's beautiful . i remember victoria was telling you about how she lived in italy . delia : yeah . victoria loves italy . billy : she does . victoria : billy ? delia : she 's coming . victoria : billy . wake up , sleepyhead . get up .

[ keyboard clacking ] neil : it was one bad day . why would you automatically assume that i 'm drinking again ? lily : maybe because one of the bartenders told me you were here ordering drinks . neil : yeah . lily : look , dad . i 'm not looking for excuses , and i 'm not looking for any promises . i just wish that -- that if you 're having troubles again , just come to me and be honest . neil : okay . now , wait . hold on . it was a slip -- a small slip . i called my sponsor right away , and i handled it . i did n't want to tell you because i - i did n't want you to worry about me . lily : of course i 'm gon na worry about you . even one drink is a big deal . neil : okay . whoa . wait a minute . do i look like a man who 's falling apart at the seams ? answer me that . lily : dad , no . neil : okay . i swear to you -- i am back on the program . yes , it was a mistake . it was a momentary lapse of reason . but i 've got no desire to go backwards . i 'm only gon na move forward , and i need you to believe that . lily : i believe in you , dad . i do . i do . neil : thank you . at least i got one of my kids on my side . lily : [ sighs ] neil : your brother -- i do n't know . he 's not gon na be so compassionate after what i did to him and his wife . lily : he might if you just go to the lab and you apologize to him . neil : go to the lab right now ? lily : i 'm sure devon will understand . devon : am i hurting him more by letting him stay ? that 's the question here , okay ? hilary : well , what 's hurting him , according to you , is the fact that he ca n't get away from me . and i would quit , but i am dr. neville 's success story . and you are his deep pockets . we ca n't go . but neil ? maybe neil will be better off with another job . devon : i know , i just -- i do n't want him to think that ... hilary : you 're pushing him away ? devon : yeah . hilary : well , that 's the least of your problems . if neil stays here and he ca n't handle it -- if he starts drinking again , is anything worth that risk ? cane : oh . lily : oh . sorry . [ chuckles ] cane : uh , nice bumping into you . lily : yeah , i was just -- i 'm preoccupied . cane : well , i 'm sure that , you know , planning this party 's consuming your every thought , so ... lily : well , till now . cane : uh - huh ? lily : [ chuckles ] cane : well ... i was thinking if you 're free , maybe you could sneak away with me . yeah ? neil : i 'm clean and sober once again . devon : but you were drinking . neil : yes , i was . i relapsed . it scared me back to meetings and the program . now , i 'm sorry i was out of pocket with you and hilary . i am . it wo n't happen again . devon : neil , i got to ask you . was this lapse because of you ending things with hilary ? neil : no . no , it was n't . devon : really ? neil : no , it was all about me . you know , this past year , especially these past few months , as well you know -- it 's been crazy for me . and sometimes , insanity leads me right back to the bottle . hilary : okay , well , if there 's anything that we can -- neil : yeah , there is something . i want you to live your lives . hilary : you keep saying that . neil : i want you two to be happy . i want us all to be a family . i want us all to work together professionally . now , i 've already apologized . and i really think that we need each other . what do you two say ? devon : i say thank you for coming and talking with us . hilary : yeah , we appreciate it , neil . neil : okay . i 'm gon na go check in with ashley and dr. neville , all right ? devon : do you not believe him ? hilary : [ sighs ] i want to . but he 's an addict like my mom was . it 's tough to break that cycle . devon : he 's doing all the right things . he got help . he owned up to having a problem , and , you know , it 's -- it 's a good sign . all he really needs now is just for us to have faith in him . ashley : thank you so much . i 'm sorry about that . what 's going on ? neil : no , no . that 's okay . um , i just need you to help me understand something here . all right , we have a project that we want to present to a mass audience . we want to garner public interest . but so far , we do n't have an official timeline for that . why not ? dr. neville : well , because any formal announcement before the product 's ready would be premature . we still have to do more analysis to compare the blood panels from the test subject -- uh , i mean , uh , from hilary to that of my control group , the healthy participants . anyway , it just -- have patience . the -- the research is still very promising . neil : okay . i 'm still a little confu -- when will there be something concrete here ? dr. neville : soon . soon . i think . neil : yeah ? ashley , what do you say ? ashley : i have the utmost confidence in dr. neville , of course . stitch : okay , i thought we were going to the party later at the club . abby : yeah , that was before your son walked in on us having sex . stitch : okay , what does that have to do -- abby : it 's traumatizing . for all of us . and we have to be sensitive to max . so i would understand if you wanted to spend some extra time with him today . stitch : i had a talk with my son . abby : you did ? stitch : yeah . about privacy , yours , mine , and his , and about the fact that i need to move back home to be with my new wife as well as get him back into a routine . abby : as in school ? stitch : we did the whole enrollment thing this morning . max is having an orientation day . he 's meeting teachers and kids . he officially starts school tomorrow . abby : [ chuckles ] that 'll be fantastic for max . i mean , he 'll make new friends . he 'll have a schedule . stitch : yeah . abby : but you did n't think he was ready . stitch : look , he 'd -- he 'd just lost his mom . you know , i was walking on eggshells , not wanting to make the wrong move . but i was n't doing my son any favors , abby . it 's time to start acting like a dad , you know , doing what 's in the interest for all of us . so ... we 're a family now , and we need to start acting like one . abby : okay , well , i will do anything i can to help . stitch : all right . well , i - i have , uh , rounds to do . so , i 'll meet you at the club later . this is our first valentine 's day as husband and wife , and i plan to celebrate . abby : it 's a date . victoria : the bottom line is my father 's concerned . natalie : what have you told your grandpa ? summer : nothing that would make victoria rush over here . look , i am just here to keep you stocked with whatever you need to get the job done . natalie : and to babysit me . victoria : my father and i both feel that after that abysmal demonstration you gave us the other day , we 're gon na need a regular progress report . natalie : [ chuckles ] here 's my report . i 've hit a wall . summer : okay , and , uh , how do -- how do we fix that ? natalie : `` we `` do n't , sunshine . no one can except for me . victoria : so , what are we supposed to do ? just wait until you turn in some workable prototype sometime this century ? natalie : for the last bloody time , victoria , these things ca n't be rushed . i have been chained to my laptop 24/7 . i have to get out of here . victoria : fine . if you need a break -- natalie : i need a life ! okay ? or at least a pretense of one . for a few hours . i 've decided to go to this valentine 's day thing tonight at the club . victoria : [ sighs ] there 's no time for that . natalie : i 'm making time . victoria : natalie , you have one week to turn in a successful product . you should be focused on work , not looking for love . natalie : i 'm not looking for anything except for some expensive bubbly and delectable snacks . [ chuckles ] oh , look at that . i have to go get ready . victoria : listen . natalie : look , talk to your niece . summer can tell you all about what i 've been doing . victoria : that girl ! she 's giving me a headache ! [ sighs ] i should have ordered her to forget about the party and just focus on work while we stood guard . summer : that would be a really bad idea . victor : so , you want to go to this party ? nikki : as we planned . victor : well , do n't you think it would be better if you and i did something , you know , by ourselves ? nikki : darling , there is nothing you can do about this computer situation except sit here and fume . and i think it would be good for business if we went . victor : in what way ? nikki : well , think about it . seeing us out and about , being social , together and happy -- that sends a certain message . i mean , a powerful man is one thing , but a powerful couple -- now , that is unstoppable . victor : i can see what you 're doing . nikki : so , is that a yes ? victor : kind of . nikki : oh , good . thank you , darling . billy : pardon me , nikki . i 'd just like to talk to victor , if i could , for a second . nikki : oh . um , sure . victor : what do you want to talk about ? billy : well , i 'm gon na ask victoria to marry me again . nikki : you are ? i think that 's wonderful . victor : are you here pretending that you want my permission or what ? billy : i 'm simply informing you that i 'm gon na be marrying your daughter . and i thought , for victoria 's sake , we should get a couple things straight from the outset . victor : did you now ? abby : i was surprised you 're here , mom . ashley : why ? i texted you that i was fine . abby : but are you sure you 're up to working ? ashley : yes , honey . it was just a 24-hour thing . now , what did you want to talk to us all about ? abby : well , i 'm aware that we 're a ways off from putting the treatment on the market , but i wanted to drop off this initial design for a promotion plan . devon : already ? abby : yeah . i mean , i know neil was unsure if i 'd be a good fit here , so hopefully , this 'll prove that i am . neil : okay . sure . i 'll -- i 'll be happy to look it over , abby . abby : great . it 's no rush . i just wanted to drop it off before the party at the club . so , will i see you guys there ? ashley : oh , not me . i have to put in some more hours here , unfortunately . abby : i had a feeling you were gon na say that . ashley : well ... dr. neville : well , uh , uh , we could see where we are a little later , though . abby : that would be great . and how about you guys ? i mean , come on , devon . you own the club , and lily has been knocking herself out trying to put this even together . hilary : well , lily 's not a person that would be thrilled to see me , but ... i 'd like to go . devon : well , i really was n't planning on , uh -- on going . neil : no ? you are n't ? well , abby 's right . we should all support lily , so we 're going . cane : you know , it feels kind of wicked to have you all to myself before all the guests arrive . lily : yeah , but it feels right . it is valentine 's day . cane : it 's our special holiday . lily : yeah . it 's the day that we first made love and the day we got married . happy valentine 's day . billy : well , i 'm sure you 'll oppose this marriage , just like you fought my relationship with victoria from the get - go . victor : then why waste our time ? billy : oh , that 's a good point . it 's not gon na change the fact that i 'm gon na marry her . victor : i do n't think it 's entirely up to you , now , is it ? billy : well , luckily , she wants this just as much as i want this . so , you can try and mess this up . you can try and break us up . hell , you can try and have us both arrested this time . it 's not gon na change . i 'm gon na marry her because i love her . and i 'm gon na fight for her just like she would fight for me and for our family . victor : hell of a speech , billy boy . ai n't enough to change my feelings where you 're concerned . nikki : well , i , on the other hand , am very happy for both of you . billy : thank you , nikki . nikki : but before you continue to protest , i 'd like you to consider a few things . victor : oh , there 's nothing to consider . nikki : please . think now about everything that victoria said and did when billy was in the hospital , how desperately she wanted to have another chance with him . and they 've been so happy now that billy 's home with johnny and katie . i mean , those kids will be so thrilled to know that their father is back with their mother officially . now , do n't fight this , victor . think about the grandchildren . think about our daughter . victor : i think our daughter has convinced herself that things will be different this time . but we all know they wo n't . but there 's nothing i can do about it . i guess she 's made up her mind . billy : well , it 's not exactly `` congratulations , `` but i suppose that 's the best that you can do , right ? victor : the best thing i can do right now is to admit that you were man enough to come here , and i appreciate that , okay ? billy : good , but that 's not the only reason why i 'm here . i got a favor to ask you . summer : victoria , i just think that you need to back off just a little bit . victoria : summer , your id badge is brand - spanking - new . you do not have the experience to be talking to me about this right now . summer : okay , i just do n't think that you can tell me what i 'm seeing in my own place , okay ? natalie is working at that keyboard constantly . she was here late last night and again before the sun came up . she 's not blowing this thing off . victoria : she has this program in her head . no one can get to it . she has us by the -- summer : okay , okay . so , everybody says that she 's a genius , right ? they tend to do things their own way . and , yes , natalie may be difficult and annoying at times -- victoria : all the time . summer : okay , yes , but she is not -- she 's not lazy . and as a person , she ... may be , sometimes , okay . victoria : you sound like you 're starting to like her . summer : no . i do not think i 'll ever get to the point of liking her . but , i mean , you ca n't live with someone without starting to get to know them a little bit . victoria : [ sighs ] okay , then . tell me what you figured out about her , because i 'm totally at a loss . summer : well , so far , all i can tell is that natalie is -- her whole life is her computer . it 's who she is . it 's what she does . victoria : but it 's not what she wants ? summer : i do n't know . i mean , she probably would n't admit it , but i think that she longs for a regular life and maybe one day to give up the whole hacking thing . victoria : well , she ca n't do that . she ca n't walk away from this job , not until she comes up with a working program . summer : okay , then just please trust me . does n't everybody just deserve one night out ? just a night off ? just let her start fresh tomorrow . victoria : summer , there 's a lot of work to be done . this is n't some class project . this is a multi - million - dollar piece of business . summer : okay , and i get that . trust me . i totally get that . but does n't everyone just deserve a night to just ... let their hair down and , i do n't know , relax a little bit ?

[ footsteps ] lulu : howard . howard , howard . did you leave a note on my tray ? [ scene_break ] woman : that would be the final call for flight 247 to rome . you should be on board . [ scene_break ] sonny : do you have a problem with what i 'm asking ? jason : sonny . we have to be sure that karpov was the shooter . it is way too soon to make a move against anybody . [ scene_break ] ric : so you can walk . anthony : i can fly , too , but do n't tell anyone . ric : so , uh , how long you been faking ? anthony : what difference does it make ? ric : oh , just give me a second , anthony . you know , i 'm just trying to -- just trying to put the pieces together . actually , it 's starting to clang into place . this whole shooting at sonny 's tonight , you 've been planning it all along . you just used the paralysis as a cover , right ? anthony : planning it was the easy part . you got to give me credit for still being able to hit a target . i 've been through a lot of reading - glass prescriptions since the last time . ric : you meant to shoot kate ? i thought sonny was the target . anthony : no . i do n't want sonny dead . i got big plans for him . [ scene_break ] lulu : answer me . howard : no , lulu , i did n't leave a note with your food . lulu : well , why -- why should i believe you ? howard : because i 'm telling the truth . lulu : well , somebody wrote it . somebody left it . it -- who 's been near the food cart , okay ? it did n't crawl up on my tray on its own . howard : why do n't i find dr. winters ? lulu : drop dead . i will find her on my own . [ scene_break ] morgan : i thought you got shot . carly : oh , sweetie , i 'm fine . i 'm fine , and so is jax . morgan : what about daddy ? carly : daddy 's fine , too , okay ? he is . he 's just -- he 's really sad right now because , um , well , a bad guy shot kate right before they were supposed to get married . morgan : was it the same bad guy who shot michael ? jax : morgan , come here . you know , what 's important is you do n't have to be afraid because the police are going to catch the bad guys , okay ? morgan : okay . jax : and in the meantime , i 'm going to make sure that you 're all safe , so you do n't have to worry about a thing . morgan : okay , okay . jax : okay . carly : are you good to go , sweetie ? morgan : okay . carly : all right , let 's go . thank you . [ scene_break ] woman : all the other passengers are on board . elizabeth : i 'm supposed to be traveling with someone , and he 's not here yet . woman : we ca n't hold the flight , so if you 're going , now 's the last chance . [ scene_break ] sonny : all right , let me -- let me take this from the top since , obviously , i -- i have not made my point . karpov shot kate . in a church . at -- at our wedding ceremony . whether he was aiming at her or not , it does n't matter . he almost killed , he almost killed the woman that i love , so he has to deal with the consequences of his actions , and so do his people . so -- listen to me . you send a message tonight . otherwise , karpov will strike again . [ scene_break ] olivia : it 's confusing to know how to feel about sonny , you know ? because neither one of us would be here if it was n't for him . you would n't be laying here , and i would n't be sitting here blabbing at you , if it was n't for sonny and his horrible choices , but -- but he brought us together , connie , and you are the best gift that i 've gotten in 20 years . [ olivia sniffles ] olivia : and we 've got so much baggage , all right ? and i realize now i 'm -- i really must 've underestimated you , you know . because you -- you really got to have some kind of -- some kind of scary inner strength to have spent all that time with sonny and -- and never even been tempted to tell him the truth . that 's unless -- unless you 're even more terrified that he 'd find out . [ scene_break ] jason : with all due respect , you 're not in any condition to make this call . you 're too emotional . you know how dangerous that can be . sonny : you gearing up to do nothing ? jason : look , i 'm -- i need to know the truth -- sonny : you gearing up to do nothing ? jason : i need to know the truth before i do it . what -- what do you got ? spinelli : analysis has proven that the recovered shell casing is from a bullet manufactured in russia and fired from a russian rifle . sonny : there 's your truth . he shot kate . kill him ! [ scene_break ] ric : are you really as unaffected as you seem to be about being discovered ? anthony : somebody was bound to find out sooner or later . i always suspected it would be you . you 're an impressive young man , ric , despite what your father says . ric : well , do n't -- do n't take offense at this , anthony , but i 've got to ask you a question . are you off your meds ? [ anthony laughs ] ric : i mean , what possible reason could you have for -- for wanting to shoot kate ? what 's the benefit ? anthony : sit down , kid . i 'm going to take you to school . ric : all right , clearly , i must be missing something here . anthony : you see , things are n't always what they seem . sometimes , they 're simpler . i used the russian rifle to shoot kate and a russian bullet . by now , jason or sonny or one of their goons stumbled on the shell casing i so thoughtfully left behind . now , these men are not masters of great subtlety . they 're going to jump at the most obvious - looking conclusion . ric : karpov . anthony : proceed to the head of the class . and what would be karpov 's motive for shooting up sonny 's wedding ? ric : sonny made a deal with karpov . sonny backed out of the deal and made karpov look weak . anthony : precisely . it 's that kind of clunky , bone - headed logic that corinthos and his ilk easily grasp . two plus two equals four . there 's no room for variation . there 's no margin for human foible or error . it 's lazy thinking , but who am i to complain ? nine times out of ten , it works for me . now , we have sonny . everybody knows the man is not capable of a rational thought when his emotions are involved . that 's always been sonny 's fatal flaw . so true to form , he 'll fly off the handle and demand karpov 's head . on the other hand , we have jason . he is not burdened by an emotional life . he 's all steel and logic , and he 's learning how to react like a boss . he 'll think , why bring on a war over a matter that is personal to a man who 's no longer even in their business ? sonny does n't have the manpower to take karpov on his own , so he 's going to have to weigh his options . ric : the best one being you . anthony : bingo . sonny will come to me hat in hand and beg me to give him shelter from the storm . ric : anthony , i , uh , i do n't mean to spoil your little fantasy , but i do n't see that happening . anthony : please , do n't rain on my harmless little fantasy . all right , so i 'll go to him . either way , i get what i want . ric : partnership ? anthony : and that 's the first step toward taking jason morgan out of the picture for good . [ scene_break ] jax : hey , you know what ? do me a favor and go drink somewhere else , because we 've seen enough violence for one night . johnny : okay , if you 're going to throw me out , take your best shot , but i do n't take too well to orders . jax : well , this is my territory , johnny , so what i say goes . [ cell phone rings ] johnny : lulu ? lulu : i need to see you . johnny : i do n't think that 's a very good idea . lulu : you have to come now . somebody knows that i killed logan . [ scene_break ] mercedes : i should 've turned off the news as soon as i heard sonny 's name . carly : stop beating yourself up . you did exactly what i wanted you to do . he was worried , and you brought him to me . it 's okay . mercedes : i 'll go run morgan 's bath then . carly : thanks . carly : want to have a talk ? morgan : okay . carly : okay . jax is right . there are things that happen that you should n't even try to understand , but i think today may answer some of your questions about why you do n't spend time with your father . i know you 've been struggling with that . see , your daddy used to work with some dangerous people , and , um , well , he made some enemies . and sometimes those enemies want to try and hurt your father , and somebody else gets hurt instead . morgan : like michael ? carly : like michael . and like kate . see , honey , that 's why your daddy and i decided that -- well , that your daddy should n't spend time with you . not because he does n't want to spend time with you and not because he does n't love you , because he does . but he does this because he wants to keep you safe , so what happened to michael and what happened to kate will never , ever happen to you . god , i wish just that your life did n't have to be so stressful and crazy . i wish that -- well , i wish that your life did n't have so much mystery and fear in it . you should n't have to wrap your precious little mind around violence and guns , and you should n't have to be afraid of losing someone you love so horribly . okay . well , you know what ? i guess we have to make the best of it , huh ? yeah . can i have a hug ? [ scene_break ] spinelli : even in the face of such incriminating evidence , stone cold still doubts that the fashionista was shot by karpov or on his orders ? jason : whoa , whoa , hold on . anyone with money can buy a russian gun .

[ scene_break ] ric : you know , i 've got to hand it to you , anthony . you 're a sly old bastard . anthony : i keep telling you people that . ric : well , please , do n't stop now . go on . come on , tell me how this convoluted path leads to jason 's death . anthony : are you raising an objection , counselor ? ric : oh , no . anthony : oh , why am i not surprised ? jason morgan is not high on your list , is he ? ric : no , i loathe the man . anthony : good . maybe we can use that sometime . okay . now , we 've got sonny demanding karpov 's death . jason refuses . sonny spirals over to the zacchara side . and that 's when i start on him . and believe me , i know how . ric : oh , i do n't doubt it . anthony : yeah , i 'll hit him with jason 's betrayal , commiserate about the ingratitude of people he raised up from nothing , people that he put into power . and about how that kind of behavior is an abomination . it 's a slap in the face to the old days , when honor and loyalty and respect and a man 's word meant something , and how can we let this kind of insubordination go unchecked ? because , my god , it invites chaos , and yada , yada , yada . and the bottom line is sonny comes to the realization that he has to take jason out . and once he 's there , it 'll be clear sailing because jason wo n't fight back . he 'll die at his own mentor 's hands , and the organization , the corinthos organization reverts back to sonny . and then one day , when he 's walking around , feeling all 's right in his world , bang ! lights out . i take it all . so , you tell me , my eager young pupil , what is the beauty of this plan ? ric : you come out the winner ? anthony : its simplicity . it all turns on the utterly predictable -- jason 's stupid , blind loyalty and sonny 's stupid , blind pride . [ scene_break ] lulu : okay , we thought that nobody would believe me when i said that i killed logan . but we 're wrong , somebody does , and they want to make me pay . johnny : whoa , whoa , slow down . start from the beginning , come on . lulu : the beginning . okay , so tracy , she came in after you ran off , and i said whatever she wanted to hear to make her leave , and then the orderly brought me food and she finally left . i opened the lid and there was a note . johnny : what did it say ? lulu : `` you killed logan . you should pay . `` johnny : where 's the note now , huh ? lulu : that 's the thing -- i went after the orderly who brought it to me , then i asked him if he wrote it . he denied it . i 'm not even sure if i believe him , but that 's what he said , and i do n't even know what i was going to do with it . i came back in here . i maybe would 've shown it to lainey or something . but it does n't matter because the note is gone . oh , my god , you do n't believe me . [ scene_break ] anthony : i always knew the way to destroy corinthos was to turn him against his own enforcer . i just could never find the right -- the right leverage to push him over to our side . trevor : i just got word that kate howard was shot . probably by andrei karpov . anthony : ric was there . he 's been filling me in . trevor : i tried to warn katie that sonny corinthos was a disaster , borderline suicidal . what kind of an idiot , huh , runs an organization for decades and then thinks that he can walk away clean ? what kind of a fool makes a deal with a heavy hitter like karpov and then welches on it within weeks ? it 's as if he put the gun in karpov 's hand and pointed it right at kate . claudia : karpov did n't do it . i just had a meeting with him . ric : you did what ? claudia : i had a meeting with him . i warned him that he needed to get out of town before all hell breaks loose . he did n't know what i was talking about . i told him kate was shot . he seemed genuinely thrown . anthony : that 's so touching . after all the lessons you should have learned at my feet . after all the experience of being a zacchara daughter , the fact that you can still harbor such naive illusions really warms a father 's heart . [ scene_break ] carly : hey . jax : hey . carly : i did n't expect to see you . not that i 'm complaining . yeah . come in . jax : thanks . as soon as you left the hotel , i , uh , i just knew that i could n't let you go . because the people closest to sonny that are left standing are you and morgan . i do n't think you 're safe here . carly : we 're fine . we are . i mean , jason has guards out there . you can see it all through the window . jax : oh , come on , carly . mob security is an oxymoron . i want to keep you safe . [ scene_break ] olivia : what the hell is wrong with you people ? jason : hey , hey , let -- let go . olivia : you think this is a fricking playground ? my cousin is fighting for her life in there ! why do n't you show her freaking respect ? karpov : i came only to offer condolences . olivia : who the hell are you ? karpov : a friend . jason : can you please go back in with kate ? i 'm going to take care of this . karpov : i 'm going to overlook what just happened . you 're upset over miss howard 's shooting . i assure you i had nothing to do with it . sonny : liar . karpov : may i remind you , there 's a truce in place between us . i have not made any hostile moves against you . i expect you not to make any hostile moves against me . spinelli : with the master 's permission , perhaps the jackal could trace the comrade 's movements tonight , ascertain whether he 's telling the truth ? jason : good idea . meet me at the nurses ' station . you 're just proving my point . sonny : that 's just karpov 's plan . bluffing his way through this . deny , deny , deny . we 'll let him do it . let him think it 's working . we 're going to come up with an airtight plan here , get some alibis , right ? a plan that will not fail . and then we will wipe that bastard off the face of the earth . [ scene_break ] lulu : why are you looking at me like that ? say something . johnny : honestly , lulu , i do n't know what to say . lulu : well , how about that you believe me ? or that we have an understanding . there was a note , and whoever wrote it can get to me at any time . what if next time , there 's a knife in my gut ? johnny : lulu , nobody is going to try and kill you . lulu : we do n't know that . can we at least agree that whoever wrote it does not wish me well ? johnny : who would do that ? nobody bought your confession . if they did , you would be in prison . lulu : i am in prison . johnny : what are you talking about ? this place or up here ? lulu : i do n't know , both . johnny : okay . so maybe this note was just a product of what 's going on . lulu : what are you saying ? johnny : i 'm saying maybe you 're doing this to yourself .

[ anthony laughs ] ric : i mean , what possible reason could you have for -- for wanting to shoot kate ? what 's the benefit ? anthony : sit down , kid . i 'm going to take you to school . ric : all right , clearly , i must be missing something here . anthony : you see , things are n't always what they seem . sometimes , they 're simpler . i used the russian rifle to shoot kate and a russian bullet . by now , jason or sonny or one of their goons stumbled on the shell casing i so thoughtfully left behind . now , these men are not masters of great subtlety . they 're going to jump at the most obvious - looking conclusion . ric : karpov . anthony : proceed to the head of the class . and what would be karpov 's motive for shooting up sonny 's wedding ? ric : sonny made a deal with karpov . sonny backed out of the deal and made karpov look weak . anthony : precisely . it 's that kind of clunky , bone - headed logic that corinthos and his ilk easily grasp . two plus two equals four . there 's no room for variation . there 's no margin for human foible or error . it 's lazy thinking , but who am i to complain ? nine times out of ten , it works for me . now , we have sonny . everybody knows the man is not capable of a rational thought when his emotions are involved . that 's always been sonny 's fatal flaw . so true to form , he 'll fly off the handle and demand karpov 's head . on the other hand , we have jason . he is not burdened by an emotional life . he 's all steel and logic , and he 's learning how to react like a boss . he 'll think , why bring on a war over a matter that is personal to a man who 's no longer even in their business ? sonny does n't have the manpower to take karpov on his own , so he 's going to have to weigh his options . ric : the best one being you . anthony : bingo . sonny will come to me hat in hand and beg me to give him shelter from the storm . ric : anthony , i , uh , i do n't mean to spoil your little fantasy , but i do n't see that happening . anthony : please , do n't rain on my harmless little fantasy . all right , so i 'll go to him . either way , i get what i want . ric : partnership ? anthony : and that 's the first step toward taking jason morgan out of the picture for good .

[ scene_break ] like sands through the hourglass , so are the days of our lives .

'cause i have a really bad feeling about tomorrow , and it 's not even my wedding . something is gon na happen . so are you gon na blow me out of the water ? is carrie gon na all of a sudden decide that she wants to be with austin instead of lucas ? lexie : carrie should be with austin . if you had n't forced me to lie , she would be with him right now . sami : carrie made her own choice , and you know it . she had both those men to choose from . now all i have is austin , and i 'm not gon na lose him , lexie . lexie : sami , that does n't justify what you 've done . you know , it only proves that you do n't deserve a man like austin . if he only knew what kind of person you still are , not only would n't he marry you , he would n't want anything to do with you ever again . no one would . sami : i know that 's exactly what you want . so that brings me back to my first question . why are you covering for me ? abe knows the truth about your affair . you have nothing left to lose . you have no reason to protect me , so it does n't make sense . just tell me why . kate : so the two of you are hiding something . [ scene_break ] max : so is it a date ? are we out of here ? chelsea : well , that would depend on what you had in mind . max : i do n't know . they have the big fourth of july party down at the pier . maybe we could do some dancing , maybe have a picnic , watch the fireworks , i could convince you we belong together . chelsea : you 're that sure of yourself ? abby : chelsea , why are you giving him a hard time ? just go out with him , have fun , be his girlfriend , 'cause i know you want to . chelsea : abby , i love you , but stay out of it , okay ? max : chelse , come on . i want to take you to the wedding tomorrow , and i just want it to be official . i want us to be a couple . chelsea : yeah , and then the next thing you 'll want is for us to be walking to be down that aisle , and i 'm just not really ready to be that serious . max : i 'm not asking you to . believe me , i 'm not proposing here . i just -- i want a little commitment from you tonight . and i plan on getting it . hmm ? that was the arm . chelsea : no . max : okay , let 's go . i 'm gon na pay for this . abby : look , i 'm gon na go . i have to surprise my dad , and i ca n't be late .. so take my advice . do n't blow it .

[ scoffs ] does n't sound like the spike that i know . pilar : i know . i questioned his motives as well , but the bottom line is your brother is free . luis : it 's amazing . but spike must have had some other incentive . or my guess is that since he was working for alistair , he 's still on the crane payroll , and -- and that does n't make sense , does it ? because why would fox and julian let spike clear miguel 's name knowing that as soon as he gets out of here , kay 's gon na leave fox and go back to miguel ? pilar : yeah , well , that 's what we all thought would happen , but it did n't . no , kay told miguel that she 's staying with fox . luis : no way . pilar : i just came from being with your brother and he 's -- he 's pretty devastated . luis : oh , my god . what is it with our family ? ca n't something good just happen ?

[ chuckles ] the truth is gon na come out . hayden : [ chuckles ] we 've been taught to believe that , but i know of at least one person who is doing time for something they did n't do . finn : hey . that does n't mean the same thing 's gon na happen to you . hayden : you know what , let 's be realistic . i have n't made a secret of how much i hate elizabeth , and now someone went and pushed her down a flight of stairs . who 's gon na believe it was n't me ? [ scene_break ] paul : are you sure about when you saw me ? maybe your time frame is off . elizabeth : no , i remember right after my argument with hayden , dr. finn told me to check in with monica . i went to her office , and that 's when i found you searching through her desk . sabrina : that 's awfully familiar of you . paul : as i explained to you at the time , i was looking for a pen . nathan : look -- i - i think we 're just getting a little off topic here . um , elizabeth , did you see hayden after you left monica 's office ? elizabeth : no , i - i went to the elevator and then the stairs . the blackout hit , and then i was pushed . that 's what i remember .

[ scene_break ] finn : you know ... elizabeth 's on a lot of medication right now . once her mind clears , she 's gon na remember that you did n't push her . hayden : my guess is that elizabeth tripped in the dark and fell on her own , and she 's accusing me because she ca n't stand me . finn : mnh - mnh . i do n't buy it . finn : she is , and so are you . listen , i - i ca n't pretend to understand the grudge between you and elizabeth , but i also do n't believe that she would let you take the blame for something that you did n't do . hayden : wow . who would have thought that the quirky , eccentric dr. finn is a secret pollyanna ? finn : no , actually , i 'm a complete cynic , and that 's why i always have a contingency plan . so if elizabeth does n't change her story , i 'm still gon na find a way to get you exonerated . hayden : how are you gon na manage that ? [ cell phone beeping ] finn : i do n't know , but i 'm -- i 'm working on it . actually , i 'm gon na have to get back to you on that . um ... in the meantime , try to stay positive . it 's better for your immune system . hey , um ... this might seem like an inappropriate time for this , but ... you look real pretty .

[ laughs softly ] marlena : yeah , what you said . hope : abigail , i have nothing but the utmost respect for your duties as a journalist , but i -- i 'm just afraid that if you do pursue this , you run the risk of causing tremendous damage . abigail : damage to who ? hope : your own mother . honey , can you imagine her horror ? almost falling to her death , in fact , in the same place where she 'd just exchanged vows with your dad ? you have to ask yourself . do you really want her to recover that agonizing memory ? abigail : what i want is -- i wan na find the truth . hope : you have . honey , rafe and i told you that all of the evidence against eve is conclusive . if you -- if you reopen those files , not only do i guarantee you 'll traumatize your mom in ways that she may never recover from , but you 'll be doing all of it for nothing . rafe : okay , well , i think abigail heard you . why do n't we just let her make up her own mind ? hope : thank you , rafe . you 're right . rafe : mm . hope : honey , you know that your mom is like a sister to me . when i think about how close we came to losing her -- god , she 's okay , though . thank god . and she 's always going to get that -- she 's always going to get the happily ever after that she always wanted , deserved . thank god . do n't you think it 's best for her , for us , for -- to try to forget what happened on that balcony ? brady : look , i get it that you 're upset that you missed a lot of time with your daughter . eric : it 's not just that . the woman i love most in this world did n't trust in our love enough to tell me the truth . brady : eric , she was scared . eric : because she thought i was gon na leave her for sarah -- that 's insane . brady : look , take it from me . a child has a -- a child has a way of bringing people back together , eric . eric : i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to be insensitive . brady : you have -- you have to understand . i mean , kristen is gone . my baby is gone . i mean , if there was anything i could do to bring them back , i would . but eric , you 're missing the big picture here . this does not have to be the end for you . eric : yes , it does . brady : look at everything that you and nicole have overcome . look at the odds that you have beaten every single time . you do n't get that far and just give up . eric : i did n't give up . nicole did . she lied to me . brady : sarah gave you a child -- something nicole could never do . she was threatened , eric . she was insecure . eric : and like i just told you , i would have never left nicole for sarah . brady : but she had reason to believe that you might . eric : so this is my fault now ? brady : no . no , man , it 's not your fault . it 's my fault . it 's my fault for blackmailing nicole in the first place for leaving town . it is xander 's fault for blackmailing nicole into marrying him . it is kristen 's fault for keeping her prisoner and posing as her . eric , of all the times nicole thought that she might lose you , of all the times that something or someone got in your way of being together , can you really blame nicole for thinking it might happen again ? nicole : well , you better get me the sketches by next week . [ keypad beeps ] [ somber music ] kate : [ sighs ] i 'm sure you remember that sarah broke our son 's heart . roman : after rex broke hers . kate : okay , whatever . my point is sarah , nicole -- talk about bad choices . roman : really ? really , you , kate , wan na throw stones in this arena ? kate : okay , i think i made some good choices as well . i picked you , did n't i ? roman : like i said . smart woman . kate : okay , well , you know all i 'm saying is that i hope that eric is smart too and he does n't get sucked back into sarah 's orbit . roman : that 's not gon na happen . xander 's the one pining for sarah now . kate : really ? roman : mm - hmm . kate : poor bastard . sarah : when mickey went missing , we were all wracking our brains trying to figure out why someone would take her and the only reason that we could come up with was money from you , ceo of titan . i mean , what other reason could there have been ? [ foreboding suspenseful music ] xander : [ sighs ] sarah : where are you going ? xander : to show eric i wo n't let anyone bully me out of my little girl 's life . jennifer : okay , yes , i get it . that would be a little awkward , being a married couple and having your friend live with you together , same house , yeah . marlena : yeah ... jennifer : [ laughs ] marlena : a friend who always seems to be there when john and i really would prefer to be alone . both : [ laugh ] jennifer : i mean , honestly , though , you 're not really worried about hope with john , right ? i mean , this is hope brady we 're talking about . this is a woman i trust with my life . [ soft dramatic music ] hope : you know how much i love your mom . i just want to protect her . abigail : yeah , i know , and look , the last thing in the world i want to do is cause my mother more pain . hope : mm - hmm . abigail : but i ca n't just blow off what eve said . i need to figure out for sure that eve is guilty . i need to do that . i mean , that 's the only way i 'm gon na know that my mom is really safe . i mean , you get that , right ? hope : 100 % . abigail : okay , okay . so -- so can i see the evidence ? hope : go down to the records room . fill out the forms . i 'd be happy to sign off on them . abigail : okay , thank you . thanks for understanding . thank you . rafe : yeah . so you wan na tell me what 's going on with you ? hope : what are you talking about ? rafe : i 'm worried about you . i have been for a while . hope : why ? rafe : because a lot 's gone on to the people that you care about . we have n't talked about it -- including your cousin 's baby being kidnapped . hope : mickey was found . rafe : uh , yeah , it 's -- exactly . um , and when we got the security footage , you acted -- you acted almost like you did n't want to see it . and then you took priority with some meeting over the anonymous tip that we got , and i 'm just -- i do n't know . before , you always wanted to be on the front line of every investigation , especially -- especially when it included your family . and now , i just -- i do n't know . are you stressed out over work ? is it too much ? hope : first of all , i appreciate your concern . rafe : uh - huh . hope : thank you . rafe : yeah . hope : secondly , we 're no longer married . rafe : okay , right . thank you . um , yes , you 're right . i just -- listen , all i 'm trying to do is make things easier for you . that 's all , okay ? hope : then maybe you should focus a little less attention on me and more on your job , hernandez ? rafe : right . [ door slams ] yeah . jennifer : i -- hope is one of our closest friends . marlena : i understand . but you know , it -- it 's what i said to john . it 's as though the woman that we ca n't get out of our apartment is -- well , she 's not the same hope that we know . jennifer : i know that i missed an entire year , but i have n't really noticed a difference in hope in just the few times that i 've seen her . marlena : hmm . well , i have . maybe it 's because i 've seen entirely too much of her . jennifer : [ laughs ] listen , i 'm sure once hope 's whole housing situation gets resolved , she 'll leave . you and john will have your space back -- just the two of you . marlena : i hope so . jennifer : [ laughs ] marlena : and i 'm gon na do all i can to hurry up that timetable . jennifer : oh , do you have a patient ? marlena : oh , no , no . no , i don't . i -- i 'm just about to meet eric . he 's bringing his daughter by . jennifer : oh , marlena ! this is so exciting . congratulations , and i 'm so happy for eric . i really hope that everything works out for him . eric : i understand that nicole was afraid of losing me , but the fact that we overcame all the things that you mention is even more the reason why she should 've trusted in herself to tell me the truth about my daughter . brady : you know what it 's like to be tortured by a secret , eric . eric : yes . yes , i do . but i finally told nicole about my relationship with sarah . i did not steer away from that because my faith was stronger in our love than my fear . i can not say the same thing about nicole . brady : so that 's it ? you 're just done ? eric : brady , she 's let a man that i do n't respect or trust raise my little girl . she chose to lie to me , to keep a secret . she chose to keep a huge lie between us when we were supposed to be sharing our lives together , so i 'm sorry . i just ca n't get past that . brady : what about holly ? you gon na turn your back on that little girl ? eric : i 'll always be there for holly , but i 'm never gon na be with nicole .

so one kiss did n't change my life . reva : i do n't want you to say anything . nate : you 're married . your life can be changed by a kiss . reva : you know what ? you take care of the special boards and you get your own tequila . i 'm taking my break . alan : look , there are no winners here , only fathers missing their children and children missing their fathers . that 's why i think it 's very important for us to move on and set the example . buzz : this get - together being the example ? alan : buzz , i did n't know about harley 's transfer . i planned this party for phillip 's children . i mean , it may be the last time they ever have to celebrate their father 's birthday . now , do you really want zach to miss that ? please , buzz . come to the house and bring the whole family . buzz : the family is staying here . but i 'll drop zach off . as crazy as it sounds , i think that kid is the best chance your family has . alan : thank you , buzz . lizzie : coop , you 've wanted me out of here since day one . copp : well ... yeah . that 's true . but like i said , things change , even the restaurant business . lizzie : oh , the restaurant business . okay . coop : yes . you know , distributors move on , customers forget your faces . and you never know . you might even miss out on certain opportunities . lizzie : opportunities . and you thought this place had no potential . you were even going to quit , remember ? coop : like i said , things change . lizzie : so just a couple of minutes ago , you said that you wanted us to slow down . does that change too ? coop : all i wanted to do was to make you aware that you have options , lizzie . you do n't have to , you know , run across the country , you know , leave the country , you know , just to get away from your family . there are other alternatives to doing that right here in springfield . lizzie : what alternatives ? coop : all i 'm saying is that you do n't have to leave the country to make a fresh start . alan : elizabeth . it 's time to go home . lizzie : i ca n't do that . i 'm not finished here yet . alan : oh , yes , you are , young lady . because we have a party to plan . you do know what tomorrow is , do n't you ? lizzie : i do . it 's daddy 's birthday . alan : that is right . and at the stroke of midnight tonight we 're going to honor and celebrate his life . coop : if you want to honor his life , then you wo n't push lizzie into the same fate as her father . announcer : here 's an update on the tragic bus accident . the vehicle was on route to hellis correction . i repeat , no survivors . the bus was to transfer harley cooper , convicted of killing phillip spaulding ... buzz : no . harley : mallet is right . the police wo n't arrest you if i go with him and you stay here . you can cover ... gus : no , no , no . harley : this is not about choosing mallet or you . it 's not . this is about me doing the safest thing that i can until we find the real killer . gus : look , i know that i 've lost your trust , okay ? and i 've made a lot of mistakes and i 've let you down . but i promise you , i know what i 'm talking about right now . harley : i love you . gus : i love you . i love you , too . i know it does n't make any sense right now , but we could make it . we 're no good without each other , okay ? we can do this . mallet : harley . gus : we can do this . think . be smart , okay ? be smart . think this through . harley : i 'm sorry . let 's go . mallet : i 'm sorry , too . tomorrow , tune in when phillip 's real killer is revealed . harley : i remember killing phillip . buzz : i think you killed him . alexandra : i think maybe you killed him . gus : did you murder phillip ? lizzie : i killed him ! olivia : i did something horrible . you are such a liar ! harley : what are you doing , mallet ? mallet : i did n't give up my career for you to roll the dice with your life . come on . come on , sweetie . let 's go . let 's get out of here . harley : i did n't ask you to give up your life for me . we have to go . mallet : you 're going to get killed out there . the second the authorities know that you 're alive and on the run , they 're going to shoot to kill . is that how you want to lose her , gus ?

we 've marked off the heights of the kids . harley : that high ? gus : uh - huh . harley : those kids are getting big . gus : oh , yeah . that 's right . i just figured that , you know , they 're big enough now , they can help me with the addition that i 'm building upstairs , the addition that we 're building for our addition . what do you want , a boy or a girl ? harley : this is the way it was supposed to be . this is the life we were supposed to have . gus : well , if you can see it , it will happen . can you see it ? harley : i 'm trying . gus : i 'm going to find my brother 's killer , okay ? and we 're going to live happily ever after . harley : promise me . gus : i promise . nate : that was a very long break . reva : i needed it . what ? nate : nothing . dinah : edmund , edmund ... edmund : dinah . dinah : thank god , you 're here . listen . you 've got to know something . edmund : dinah , i really do n't have time for this . i need to speak to cassie . she left without telling you ?

( siren in the background ) it 's not for us , okay ? harley : i know . gus : i 'll go check it out , all right ? harley : okay . gus : clear . when that bus crashed , i thought i 'd lost you and i can't ... i 'll tell you right now , i ca n't go through that again . i have to go , okay ? harley : i 'll be fine . gus : i think that olivia did it , and i think that i can prove it . and i have to move fast before anybody figures out that you 're alive . so i 'm going to get over to the spaulding house and uh ... my gut is telling me that there 's something there that i missed . ( thunder rolling ) ( thunder ) ( thunder crashes ) ( thunder crashes ) ( thunder crashes ) ( thunder crashes ) ( rolling thunder ) ( thunder claps ) ( thunder ) ( thunder crashes ) ( rolling thunder ) next , on `` guiding light `` ... harley : you need to be careful , i mean , really careful . yes , because if olivia is the killer , she is not going to like being exposed . olivia : to phillip , happy birthday and may you rot in the ground . and , hey , take your father with you very soon . | reva & nate kiss one another and she ends up mad at him . cassie finds out that alonzo has invited her to stay at the palace and she is ecstatic . dinah has a new suitor . alan invites buzz & his family to phillip 's birthday memorial . buzz accuses alan of celebrating the fact that he got revenge on harley . mallet & gus both plead with harley to leave with them . harley chooses gus . mallet pulls a gun on both gus & himself before giving it to harley to use in an emergency as protection . lizzie gives coop a gift and confesses to both him & alan that she wants a fresh start . when pressed to give her a reason to stay , coop suggests she head home to her family which crushes lizzie . both alan and buzz hear about harley 's death ' over the radio . buzz rushes to the scene where mallet is in hysterics over not being able to save her . harley realizes she is more hurt that she originally thought . jonathan lashes out at his mother for not appreciating all that he has done for her . cassie is arrested and the only one with the power to help her is dinah . the killer 's secret hiding place is revealed . | <s>[INST] gus : baby , we have to go . harley : she was taking my place . she used my name and my number to keep from me from going to hell house . gus : there 's nothing else we can do for her now , except save yourself . that 's what she would want . harley : why do i get a second chance to live ? gus : listen to me . do n't think about that right now , okay ? wo n't you think about freedom ? and you can have it if you leave with me right this second . honey . harley : ( sobbing ) gus : come on . reva : ( laughs ) what was that ? nate : i do n't know . but i think i want to do it again . reva : you should n't have done that . nate : i did n't feel you resisting . reva : i was shocked . nate : i can imagine . especially when you leaned into me . reva : i did n't lean in . nate : you leaned . and then i leaned into you . look , does it matter who kissed who ? reva : no . what matters is that it happened . cassie : oh , my god , here comes count viscardi . edmund : cassie , cassie , cassie ... cassie : what ? edmund : just take a break . take a break . someone tried to stop you at the airport , you 're here in your street clothes , it 's a recipe for disaster . cassie : that 's a chance i 'm going to have to take , edmund . i am trying to get san cristobal to take my side against their prince . it 's now or never . emissary : oh , i 'm sorry . you 're not princess cassie . edmund : i think we may have a situation . emissary : princess cassie ? i have a message from prince alonzo . edmund : and you may take a message back to him . emissary : he 's on his way here to see you . lizzie : oh . hey , i 've been looking for you . stay right there . i 've got something for you . coop : look , lizzie . that 's very thoughtful of you . but i know that we ... we both want ... or rather that we ... it 's great that what we want to be is friends . but as far as everything else concern , i think that maybe we should start to take things a little slower . lizzie : okay , fine . all right . have it your way . i 'll call you when i get back in six months . alan : hello , buzz . buzz : i 'm busy , alan . alan : yeah , what are you trying to do ? tune in the ballgame or what ? buzz : as matter of fact , i am . i 'll do anything i can to keep my mind off what the hell harley 's going through . alan : it 's been a difficult night for every one . but , you know , tomorrow is a new day and i plan to make it different . maybe you should set an example for your family and pick yourself up and move on , huh ? buzz : you know , i hate it when they do n't televise games . i think i need a new radio . alan : have you heard a word that i 've said ? buzz : yeah , you want things to be different , alan . so do i. i want my daughter to be home where she 's safe . alan : yeah , well , i want my son back , too , buzz . look , it 's been a very difficult year for both of our families . but i think it 's time that we move on . buzz : what 's that ? alan : i want you to bring your family and zach to my house tonight . buzz : for what ? alan : we 're going to celebrate phillip 's birthday . mallet : are you all right ? when i saw that crash ... are you hurt ? harley : you should not be here . i knocked you out for your own good . i did n't want you involved in all of this . mallet : it 's too late . it 's too late for that , cooper . i am involved . gus : not anymore you 're not . for a dry , itchy spot . reva : about the kiss ... nate : yeah , it was n't bad . but i think i can do better with a little practice . reva : no practice . no more kissing . that 's never going to happen again . nate : okay . reva : okay ? nate : okay . that 's fine by me . i mean , i enjoyed it . but i understand . you 're a happily married woman , and that 's it . reva : right . nate : women come and go . but a really good bartender is hard to find . so i would n't want to lose you . reva : no , you would n't want to lose me . whew . thanks for making that so quick and painless . nate : why get stressed about something of no importance ? edmund : where 's alonzo now ? emissary : i was instructed to only speak to the princess . edmund : well , the princess is my wife . and alonzo is my brother . cassie : edmund . hey , edmund , it 's okay . i can talk with him . edmund : right . i 'll be waiting with dinah . cassie : thank you . edmund : pompous lackey . dinah : he 's very handsome . who is he ? edmund : he 's alonzo 's messenger . he 's been sent to announce alonzo 's arrival . dinah : and that 's a good thing , right ? edmund : just dandy . however ... dinah : no wait a minute . what happens if cassie finds out that you 've been telling alonzo 's for weeks that he could have will ? edmund : well , that 's open to interpretation , dinah . dinah : yeah , cassie 's . edmund : it wo n't happen . i guarantee it . dinah : so says the prince , hmm ? edmund : what , you doubt me ? dinah : i do not doubt the power of a man who can make me a princess for a day . and should you find a glass slipper lying on the ground that doesn't ... edmund : dinah . dinah : come on . it 's not even midnight . all right , does n't cinderella deserve a final waltz on the dance floor ? cassie : edmund . oh , gosh . alonzo has invited us to stay at the palace with him . he wants to talk to us about will . he 's sorry about what happened at customs . is n't this wonderful ? edmund : ( laughs ) what ? what ? cassie : look , we 're going to be able to convince him that will belongs with us . oh , my god . edmund : oh , that 's wonderful . see , my darling , will 's going to be safe in your arms again . i 'm going to make sure of that . coop : so you 're really leaving . lizzie : i mean , things have been terrible around here lately . i need a change of scenery and i think this will be good for me . and when i get back , i can just start all over . now , would you please open this ? coop : it 's pink . sounds like you 've got some keys in here . lizzie , did you buy me a new car ? lizzie : yeah , you wish . there are keys in there , but it 's actually the keys to this place . coop : you 're giving us company back ? lizzie : elizabeth and company . and you wish again . i actually was hoping that since i 'll be gone for six months , you and buzz can keep an eye on the place . and you can keep all the profits . coop : what ? are you okay ? lizzie : i 'm fine . why ? coop : lizzie , every time you leave here at night , you check all the napkin holders to make sure my family has n't pilfered any for our personal use . and now you 're telling me that we can keep all the profits ? lizzie : do whatever you want . have fun . coop : i just ... lizzie , i do n't understand . lizzie : what ? coop : you ca n't just leave right now like this . all right , look , i know that things were really rough here at first . i know that . trust me . but i thought you actually liked this place . you know ... do n't you ? i mean every time that you had a really bad day or things got really , really difficult outside there you always had this . this . this right here to come back . and i just ca n't believe that right now you 're just going to let it all go . you 're going to pretend it does n't exist for six whole months ? alan : i realize celebrating phillip 's birthday like this is a little unconventional . buzz : you think ? alan : you know , maybe it 's my way of coping with his death . one 's never really prepared in dealing with the loss of a child . one moment you 're fine , the next moment you 're lashing out . there 's not really a wrong way or right way of dealing with it . buzz : i think you 've found the wrong way . alan : well , i 'm burying the past . will you and zach join me ? buzz : no . alan : no ? buzz : i wish i could believe you were sincere that you 're celebrating phillip 's birthday . but i think what you 're really celebrating is getting revenge on harley . gus : listen to me . you did n't see us . we 're not here . just get out of the way . mallet : i 'm sorry . i ca n't let you do that . gus : listen . you said you wanted to help her ? here 's your chance . there was a bus crash . there were no survivors . it 's burning . they 'll think that she 's dead , at least for a little while , okay ? all you have to do is turn around and walk away . mallet : harley , listen to me . if you go with him , you 're as good as dead . gus : he does n't know what he 's talking about . mallet : they 'll find you , harley . he 's proven he ca n't be trusted to make the right decisions . listen to me . i can protect you . i can keep you safe . gus : yeah , like you kept her safe today ? mallet : i 'm a wanted man . i have nothing to lose . okay , but if you go with him , you 're putting him in the same boat that we 're in . you 'll make him a wanted man . you 'll make him a fugitive . harley : he 's right . he 's right . you 'll be a fugitive . then if they catch us ... gus : they 're not . harley : ... they 're going to arrest you , too . gus : that 's why we have to leave right this second . mallet : harley , listen to me . he can stay here . he can work on your case free and clear , okay ? and i can protect you . you do n't have to choose . you do n't have to choose . you can use us both . gus : let 's go . harley : my arm . wait . wait . wait . cassie : oh , edmund , i have such a great feeling ; i do . i mean , for the first time in weeks , i really believe that i 'm going to be able to keep my son . edmund : you know , cassie , i think we make a very good team . let 's celebrate . cassie : do you want to dance ? edmund : the idea crossed my mind . it , edmund . cassie : i 'm not dressed for it , edmund . edmund : i 'm sorry . i could n't hear you . the music . ( laughter ) dinah : it 's okay , sweetie . we 'll have our chance . someday . someday . george : princess cassie , are you all right ? dinah : ( laughs ) i 'm not ... i 'm not princess cassie . george : my apologies . you 're even more beautiful than she is . dinah : thank you . george : i 'm sorry for intruding . but i just could n't stand to see such a sad , lovable face . reva : i 'm working on the specials board . nate : and doing a splendid job . reva : i ca n't do both . nate : well , then i hereby give you permission to take a well - deserved break from the specials . reva : nobody needs to know the specials tonight , anyway . nate : reva . you 're upset because i said the kiss meant nothing . what do you want me to say ? so one kiss did n't change my life . reva : i do n't want you to say anything . nate : you 're married . your life can be changed by a kiss . reva : you know what ? you take care of the special boards and you get your own tequila . i 'm taking my break . alan : look , there are no winners here , only fathers missing their children and children missing their fathers . that 's why i think it 's very important for us to move on and set the example . buzz : this get - together being the example ? alan : buzz , i did n't know about harley 's transfer . i planned this party for phillip 's children . i mean , it may be the last time they ever have to celebrate their father 's birthday . now , do you really want zach to miss that ? please , buzz . come to the house and bring the whole family . buzz : the family is staying here . but i 'll drop zach off . as crazy as it sounds , i think that kid is the best chance your family has . alan : thank you , buzz . lizzie : coop , you 've wanted me out of here since day one . copp : well ... yeah . that 's true . but like i said , things change , even the restaurant business . lizzie : oh , the restaurant business . okay . coop : yes . you know , distributors move on , customers forget your faces . and you never know . you might even miss out on certain opportunities . lizzie : opportunities . and you thought this place had no potential . you were even going to quit , remember ? coop : like i said , things change . lizzie : so just a couple of minutes ago , you said that you wanted us to slow down . does that change too ? coop : all i wanted to do was to make you aware that you have options , lizzie . you do n't have to , you know , run across the country , you know , leave the country , you know , just to get away from your family . there are other alternatives to doing that right here in springfield . lizzie : what alternatives ? coop : all i 'm saying is that you do n't have to leave the country to make a fresh start . alan : elizabeth . it 's time to go home . lizzie : i ca n't do that . i 'm not finished here yet . alan : oh , yes , you are , young lady . because we have a party to plan . you do know what tomorrow is , do n't you ? lizzie : i do . it 's daddy 's birthday . alan : that is right . and at the stroke of midnight tonight we 're going to honor and celebrate his life . coop : if you want to honor his life , then you wo n't push lizzie into the same fate as her father . announcer : here 's an update on the tragic bus accident . the vehicle was on route to hellis correction . i repeat , no survivors . the bus was to transfer harley cooper , convicted of killing phillip spaulding ... buzz : no . harley : mallet is right . the police wo n't arrest you if i go with him and you stay here . you can cover ... gus : no , no , no . harley : this is not about choosing mallet or you . it 's not . this is about me doing the safest thing that i can until we find the real killer . gus : look , i know that i 've lost your trust , okay ? and i 've made a lot of mistakes and i 've let you down . but i promise you , i know what i 'm talking about right now . harley : i love you . gus : i love you . i love you , too . i know it does n't make any sense right now , but we could make it . we 're no good without each other , okay ? we can do this . mallet : harley . gus : we can do this . think . be smart , okay ? be smart . think this through . harley : i 'm sorry . let 's go . mallet : i 'm sorry , too . tomorrow , tune in when phillip 's real killer is revealed . harley : i remember killing phillip . buzz : i think you killed him . alexandra : i think maybe you killed him . gus : did you murder phillip ? lizzie : i killed him ! olivia : i did something horrible . you are such a liar ! harley : what are you doing , mallet ? mallet : i did n't give up my career for you to roll the dice with your life . come on . come on , sweetie . let 's go . let 's get out of here . harley : i did n't ask you to give up your life for me . we have to go . mallet : you 're going to get killed out there . the second the authorities know that you 're alive and on the run , they 're going to shoot to kill . is that how you want to lose her , gus ? gus : i 'm not going to lose her . harley : mallet , please listen . look , we do n't have a lot of time , okay ? i want you to listen to me . are you listening to me ? mallet : yeah . what ? harley : i 'm so grateful to you for everything that you did . you put your life on the line for me . i will never forget that . and i forgive you . but i need to be with him . my life is with him . mallet : no , harley . no . harley : listen , we 're good , right ? did n't we say we 're good ? that we 're even ? so you can go . you should go . and you need to let us go , too . mallet : hey , sunshine . you 're going to need this . alan : take a look . coop : ca n't you ever just leave her alone ? alan : mr. bradshaw , this is a family conversation . lizzie : coop , it 's okay . you can go . this is so weird . i mean , we 're having a birthday for daddy , and he 's not even going to be there . alan : well , that 's not necessarily so . no . your mother and i both feel that when you 're with your brothers , i mean , you 'll feel a lot of your father there . is that reason enough to celebrate ? lizzie : i 'm not coming to the party . alan : why not ? lizzie : because i need to start a life of my own . i ca n't just live in the past like the rest of you . you 've got to let me go , granddad . dinah : do n't you find everybody so phony here ? always trying to be something they 're not ? george : yeah , that 's why it 's so nice to meet someone like ... just the way she is . dinah : oh , i like you . george : mm . enough to wait for me ? i need to do a few things back ... dinah : i will be right here . okay , i think i might have found myself a prince . cassie : why ca n't it always be this simple , edmund ? edmund : it can be . give us another chance , cassie . cassie : we need to concentrate on will right now . and i need to figure out what i 'm going to say to alonzo . edmund : i know . i know . cassie : no , i need to go back to the hotel and change . oh , dinah . i 'm sorry . i almost forgot that ... dinah : what ? that i 'm here ? no , i 'm fine . you have your prince now and now i have mine . cassie : you met someone ? dinah : yes , yes . just the most handsome , charming prince at the ball . cassie : well . dinah : oh , there he is . george : i just have to finish cleaning up . do n't you go anywhere . jonathan : wow . very cool . i 'm impressed . where did you learn that ? reva : from a friend . mallet : i could n't give you the life you wanted before so ... maybe now i can . take this . you might need it . there 's a cell phone in the pocket . no one will know to trace it . harley : no . no . no , you 're going to need this . you have to run , too . mallet : no , no , i 'm fine . i 'm fine . gus , take good care of her . gus : i will . let 's go . harley : i 'm sorry . mallet : go . just go . harley : thank you . mallet : hey , gus , i 'll try stalling them as long as i can . go . go , go , go . cop : movement up ahead . look to the right . the right . mallet : it 's no use ! you 're late . everybody 's dead . everybody . jonathan : you 're just full of surprises , mom . reva : yeah , just like my sweet baby boy . jonathan : how about mixing up something for your sweet baby boy ?

[ scene_break ] jason : i do n't even know what to do . i feel like the world 's biggest hypocrite . sam : why ? jason : because michael is flailing right now . he 's looking for an identity , a place where he fits in . sam : that 's understandable , i mean , he 's a teenager . that 's what they do . jason : yeah , he 's no ordinary teenager , sam . he 's sonny 's son . he 's my nephew . he looks at what we do like it 's elq , a family business handed down from one generation to the next . sam : yeah , i know . unfortunate , but again , kind of understandable . i just -- i really , uh , i do n't understand where you feeling like a hypocrite fits into all this . jason : michael approached me about mentoring him , just like i approached sonny . he did n't even want to hear it . i told him there 's no way that it 's going to happen . sam : okay , good , then i hope you 're not beating yourself up over this , then . jason : no , just like michael said , i 'm the one who 's always telling people they get to do what they want to do , you know ? he 's not old enough to do that now , but in a couple of years , the kid 's going to be able to do whatever he wants . so do i do to him what everybody did to me ? sam : you do not want him a part of the mob , do you ? jason : hell no . sam : okay , then , it seems to me keeping him out , giving michael other viable options , trumps feeling hypocritical any day of the week .

[ imitating james cagney ] 'cause my lips are sealed . jill : [ laughs ] no , no . i do n't want any spoilers . i just love seeing you like this . you 're in a good mood . you 're looking forward to your trip to new york . if traci has any part in this at all , more power to her . jack : are n't you cutting it kind of close ? traci : oh , hello ! no . i 'll be fine . i do so much traveling now that i 've got packing down to a science . jack : i love how buoyant your mood has been ever since you started planning this trip . i envy it . traci : well , jack , there 's absolutely nothing stopping you from climbing on an airplane and going to new york city anytime you want . jack : it is n't the trip i envy so much as the outlook , the way you -- the way you just take life as it comes , open yourself to every opportunity , the way you went after that book . you waited for inspiration , and when it came , you followed where it led . i should take a lesson or two from you . traci : oh , no . that 's a terrible idea . jack : is it ? traci : jack , a - a person should be true to their own nature . jack : okay . and what 's mine ? traci : well , you are a hard - charging , driven businessman . you are one of the most determined people i have ever known , and you , jack abbott , are the power of intention personified . jack : i do n't know if that 's good or bad . traci : [ laughing ] no , it 's you . it 's you . it 's the kind of person you are . you are never happier than when you are bending reality to your will . and if you 're feeling a little at loose ends lately -- and from what you 've said and how you 've said it , i think you are -- it 's only because you 're between challenges . jack : well , i guess that 's one way of looking at it . traci : jack , oh my gosh ! look what you just accomplished ! you set jabot back up on its feet -- a major miracle ! and , at the same time , you developed this amazing treatment program in neil 's honor , helping musicians battle their addictions . that 's saving lives ! jack : that part 's easy . that 's what neil would have wanted . traci : yes . but i 'm proud of you , jack . and i am waiting with bated breath to see what you take on next . it will be epic and nearly impossible because that 's just how you roll . jack : i need a new mountain to climb . traci : mm - hmm . jack : question is , which one ? traci : well , the tallest one , of course . [ laughs ] rey : my sources in vegas have picked up on various rumors . depending on who you talk to , chance was involved in money laundering and other shady financial dealings . nick : okay , this is just bizarre . he 's a chancellor . he 's got a crazy trust fund . he does n't need money . plus , it goes against everything he ever stood for . rey : because of his law - enforcement background ? nick : chance has always been a truth - and - justice kind of guy . rey : [ sniffs ] well ... my guys in vegas are pros , nick . nick : [ sighs ] alright . then ... whose money are we talking about ? how are they doing it ? who 's spreading these rumors ? rey : i do n't have those answers yet . nick : well , keep digging . if we can somehow get proof that adam has an association with a criminal enterprise , it can go a long way in proving to the court that he is an unfit father . victor : a family dinner ? ah ! nikki : yes . it 's been far too long since we 've had everybody together in one place ... victor : mm - hmm . nikki : ... and it would be a wonderful reminder of how much love and support you have . victor : hmm . who do you think of inviting ? nikki : well , i was thinking it would be a grown - up evening . you know , the kids can join us next time . victor : i agree with you . yeah . nikki : okay . well , thankfully , nicholas and victoria have ironed out their differences , so they will be there , and billy and abby and summer . victor : mm - hmm . but i guess ... adam will not be invited . nikki : do you have a problem with that ? victor : no . he 's trying to take christian away from nicholas , and , uh ... i think it 'll be a long time before those two sit down at a table and break bread together . nikki : yeah . well , i am willing to hold out hope that he will come around sometime in the future , but , for now , things are what they are . victor : your instincts are absolutely right on . nikki : i 'm glad you 're able to accept that . i know adam is a difficult subject . victor : and always will be . nikki : yeah . oh . i 'm gon na be late for my meeting with the park supervisor . victor : oh . nikki : would you like to come with me ? i mean , it wo n't take very long . victor : you go ahead . i 'll see you there , okay ? i need to take care of something else before . alright ? nikki : do i even want to know ? victor : uh , no . rey : you , too , baby . alright . well , i better get back to my meeting . alright . talk soon . nick : sounds like things are better between you two . rey : she told me about the two of you confronting adam . it really got to her , the way that he went to paul , made it seem that chelsea was responsible for her husband 's death . just goes to show what kind of low - life scum the guy is . nick : well , i really hope it sunk in . sharon needs to stop rooting for this guy to have a miraculous change of heart and see him for the serious threat that he is . rey : i - i think she does now , finally . nick : and it was a real wake - up call for chelsea , too . until you mentioned what adam had done , i could tell there was a small part of her that refused to believe there was n't anything left of the man she used to love . rey : what did these two women with so much going on ever see in this jerk ? nick : man , i have no idea . but the important thing is their eyes are open now . you and i have to make sure that the judge 's are open , too . jill : so , have you had any lucky selling your house yet ? cane : uh , no offers yet , but the agent 's gon na keep showing it to people while i 'm out of town . uh , so ... what 's next you ? what are your plans ? ooh , what 's on your bucket list ? jill : well , it 's funny you should ask . i 'm off to bali . cane : mmm . i 've always wanted to go to bali . jill : it 's supposed to be spectacular . cane : mm - hmm . i 've heard . jill : there 's waterfalls and beaches . the food is to die for . cane : mm - hmm . jill : i 'm pretty excited about it . cane : mm - hmm . jill : oh , my god . there is this monkey rainforest where the monkeys come right up to you . cane : yeah . sounds like an amazing experience . make sure you take pictures , okay ? jill : i will . why are you looking at me that way ? cane : well , you 're an inspiration to me . jill : aww , sweetie . listen , if you were n't going to new york , i would take you to bali with me . cane : yeah . well ... i can go there another time , so ... jill : tell me something . what [ clears throat ] does lily think about your trip to new york ? cane : uh , i do n't know . i have n't spoken to her about it , and i 'm not sure if charlie 's mentioned it . if he has , i do n't know . i have no clue . jill : well , houston , we have a breakthrough . [ both chuckle ] cane : alright . what is that meant to mean ? jill : just that , for the first time since your breakup , i do n't get the sense that you 're doing something to impress lily or to prove something to her , and i call that `` progress . `` cane : yeah , well , you may be right , 'cause it does feel like a step forward . i do know that . jill : mm . billy : hey . uh , can i get a scotch on the rocks , please ? jill : good morning , billy . cane : hey . billy : hey , mom . jill : hi , sweetie . mwah ! would you like to join us ? cane has to leave soon . billy : no , i 'm -- i 'm fine . jill : are you meeting someone ? billy : no , i 'm just taking a little break from work . jill : then sit down ! cane has to leave soon , but he can tell you all about his trip to new york . oh , what am i thinking ? you 've probably heard all about it from traci already . billy : are you going to new york with traci ? jill : oh , they 'll just be there at the same time . cane : yeah . we 're flying out together and actually staying in the same hotel . billy : okay . why do n't you tell me what the hell kind of game you think you 're playing ? chelsea : i only called to see how my son is doing at camp . no ! i 'm not answering any questions about calvin 's will ! because it 's not my priority right now . mom ... mom . mom ! okay . you know what ? that 's it . i have to go . just tell connor that i love him and that i will be seeing him soon . ugh ! my mother is driving me absolutely crazy ! victor : whoa . why do you look so surprised ? you must have known that you would have to face me someday again . i wanted to consolidate my credit cards in to a personal loan to pay them off faster . lending tree made lenders compete for my business and i ended up with a loan that saved me over $ 9000 and no more credit card debt . i mean $ 9000 ! cane : there 's no reason for you to worry , okay ? i 'm going to be in new york at a conference , and when i 'm finished with my day , we 're gon na spend some time together . that 's all , okay ? billy : whose idea was that ? cane : it was my idea , and i suggested we have some dinner and maybe go see a show . besides that , my son 's there doing an internship . billy : yeah , but you 're not staying with charlie , are you ? cane : no , i 'm not staying with charlie , billy , because , you see , i 'm not a big fan of couch surfing , and i do n't really want to crash his style . billy : i just do n't get why you would think it 's a good idea that you tag along with my sister . jill : just the way i do n't get why you 're interrogating cane . billy : because this is an important trip for my sister . she needs to focus to make sure that her book is a success . cane : that is right , and i would like the book to be successful . billy : oh . well , then you would agree that you do n't belong there , because you have nothing to do with my sister 's career , right ? in fact , i 'm sure you 're just a major distraction for her . jill : billy , billy , billy , honey , you 're wrong , because traci 's book is about cane , or at least her main character is based on him . cane : [ sighs ] crazy , i know . jill : and plus her publisher wants to meet him . i 'm sure he 'll take a look at you and want you to pose for the cover . cane : alright , listen . i swear there 's nothing in this for me . let me rephrase that , okay ? traci and i have gotten a lot out of our relationship , okay ? and i 'm not taking advantage of her , alright ? we -- we appreciate our friendship . that 's -- we do , alright ? and case in point -- when dina went into memory care , it was really hard on your family , and your sister had no one to talk to , alright ? and i was there for her . billy : she 's got plenty of people to talk to about that , cane . she does n't need you . cane : okay . in that case , why do n't they come to new york , as well , 'cause the more , the merrier ? listen , i do n't know why you 're doing this and you 're turning it into something more than it is . you do n't have to , billy , okay ? it 's not a big deal . we just enjoy spending our time together . that 's it . okay ? jill : it 's that simple , honey . cane : right . thank you . jill : come on . pull up a chair . billy : no , i 'm fine . i lost my appetite . jill : ohh ! cane : why am i not surprised ? jill : what , that he was so rude to you ? cane : no , no , no . it 's -- i know he 's just being protective of traci . i mean , that 's -- jill : oh , please . traci 's a grown woman . she does n't need her little brother picking out her friends for her . you just go to new york and you have a ball , okay ? and do n't give billy a second thought . chelsea : can i ... get you something to drink ? victor : no , thank you . very kind of you to offer . you 've made yourself quite at home here . chelsea : same could be said for you . do you always just walk in unannounced ? victor : mm - hmm . well , that 's because your housekeeper let me in , you know . i guess you did n't hear that because you were ... in an argument with your mother . anita -- is that still her name , or has she changed it ? chelsea : no , she changed it . victor : oh , she changed her name . i see . well , that 's a good way to keep her daughter hidden . chelsea : my mom and i both did what we thought was best for connor . victor : uh - huh . to keep connor away from me ? chelsea : to keep his mother out of jail . victor : i see . chelsea : connor 's my world . i will do anything and everything to keep him safe and make sure we 're together . i 'm not gon na apologize for that to anyone . victor : mm - hmm . but you 're not together now , are you ? chelsea : no , but i 'm -- i 'm going to see him soon . victor : mm - hmm . chelsea : i did n't intend to be in town for this long . victor : mm . i 'm sorry about your loss . was he close to his stepfather ? chelsea : he was very close . victor : really ? chelsea : mm - hmm , and even though connor took the news of calvin 's passing very well , it 's gon na be a long , hard road ahead of him . that 's why , in the meantime , i do n't want to add to any of his confusion . i do n't intend to tell him anything about adam being alive . victor : right . so , you 're not gon na bring him to genoa city ? chelsea : hard no . victor : oh , yeah . i understand . well , you know , i do n't blame you . adam has been behaving rather erratically and recklessly , i think . chelsea : mm - hmm . victor : not taking a word of advice from me . chelsea : yeah . well , he has n't listened to me , either . given the sense of entitlement he 's shown toward christian and the complete lack of respect for the bond nick has formed with him , i ca n't trust him around my son . victor : i can see how you feel that way . chelsea : thank you . victor : yeah . chelsea : i was n't sure how you were gon na react about my decision . victor : oh , did you think i would blindly side with adam ? chelsea : well , when you walked in here , i really was n't quite sure what to think . victor : mm - hmm . well , now that you know i 'm not a threat , perhaps you will ... enable me to see my grandson . you know , you just tell me where he is and i 'll go find him . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . chelsea : victor ... i 'm not against you visiting connor , but , um ... it would just have to happen the right way . victor : mm . it needs to happen immediately . chelsea : will you just try to see this from his perspective ? victor : mm - hmm . chelsea : he just lost somebody very important to him . i mean , he 's lost everyone how 's ever been important to him , except for his grandmother and me . victor : i understand , but you must understand that if ... i now show up ... and re - establish contact with connor , it 'll remind him that he has a large family ... that cares about him and that loves him . chelsea : right . um ... and that 's a beautiful sentiment . i just feel like this news about adam is gon na come as a shock to him . you know , he 's a little boy . he 's not prepared for that . victor : well , let 's prepare him now . chelsea : okay . i mean , i can -- i can talk to him about it when i see him . you just have to promise me you wo n't tell him about adam if i 'm not there . victor : i promise you i will do nothing to upset that boy , okay ? so , where is he ? oh . so , this is summer camp . chelsea : yeah . he 's there for a few more weeks . victor : uh - huh . so , kindly add my name to his list of visitors , alright ? [ door opens ] nick : what 's going on ? jill : mm . thank you so much for agreeing to meet with me . jack : oh , thank you for reaching out to me . billy told me you were in town , fresh in from china , on your way to your next adventure . jill : yes , china to bali , with a short detour through genoa city . it 's a little out of the way , but ... jack : but there is no substitute for time with family . jill : cane told me that you and your sisters had to put dina in a memory - care facility . i 'm so sorry , honey . jack : yeah . we tried to keep her at home as long as we could , but when she got too frightened and disoriented to cope with life there , i -- jill : [ sighs ] my heart really goes out to you . it 's hard enough to lose somebody all at once , but bit by bit , day by day ? i mean , that must be torture . jack : yeah , we still get occasional brief glimpses of the woman she once was , but ... those are rarer and rarer now . jill : you know , every once in a while , i have an occasional visit from katherine in my dreams . and it is n't the real thing , but at least it 's a small comfort . jack : funny you should mention that . i keep seeing dina in mine -- a much younger dina , and we have heart - to - hearts that ... i 'm not sure could ever happen again . jill : really ? and what does this dream version of dina have to say to you ? jack : oh , nothing that comforting . that was never her strong suit . jill : [ laughing ] no , it never was . jack : she keeps pushing me , though . to do what , i - i do n't know . she has n't said . but ... she keeps asking me what do i want ? jill : and in this dream ... do you have an answer to that ? traci : [ chuckles ] hey ! cane : hey . traci : you 're early ! come on in . come on in . cane : okay . sure . traci : oh . wow . uh , i 'm not finished packing just yet , but i 'm -- i 'm close . you must be really eager to get to new york city . [ both chuckle ] so , did you take sam to the sitter already ? cane : yeah , yeah , yeah , i did . traci : okay . cane : my bags are there in the car . but , listen , there 's something i want to , uh , say to you first . traci : okay . what -- what is it ? cane : [ sighs ] if you 're having second thoughts about spending time with me on this trip , you know , you can just tell me and i will , you know , steer clear of you . jill : the next time you have that dream , i know what you should say to dina . jack : is that right ? what ? jill : you should tell her to back off -- that you 've suffered serious losses , you 're grieving , and you want to respect that process . jack : when did you become so wise ? jill : mm . i went through a similar situation when my marriage to colin ended . jack : yeah , i heard about that . i 'm sorry that did n't work out . jill : yeah , me , too , but it was for the best , and i knew it . but here 's the thing . you ca n't launch into a new phase of your life without grieving what you 're leaving behind , and once you 've done that , once you 've made peace with that ... then the way forward will be much more clear to you . jack : who knows ? i may end up in bali myself . jill : if you 're real lucky . jack : [ chuckles ] nikki : well , hello , you two . jack : hey , nikki . how are you ? nikki : very well , thank you . jill , i heard you were in for a visit . jill : yes . the proverbial bad penny . nikki : you said that . jill : mm , but you were thinking it ! anyway , on that note , i have many people to see and a very brief time to see them . jack : great to see you . jill : thank you . jack : travel safely , and thanks for the good advice . jill : you 're very welcome . nikki . nikki : jill . good advice ? from jill ? that 'll be the day . jack : now , be nice . nikki : i was nice . jack : come here . sit down . so , were you headed anywhere in particular ? nikki : actually , here . victor 's joining me . jack : oh , joy . nikki : the way you say that , it must be true . jack : what 's that ? nikki : i understand you and victor had a drink the other day and things were relatively civil . jack : you 're welcome . nikki : so , what caused this change in attitude , not that i 'm complaining ? jack : well , i figured with everything that victor has going on in his life , he did n't need me piling on . nikki : you mean with adam coming back ? jack : among other things . nikki : mm . well , i suppose we are all approaching that time of life when ... things that seemed so far away maybe are n't anymore . and i think the only thing we can do to get through it is to cherish every moment we do have and keep moving forward as best we can . and i know you understand what i mean because you and your family just did that with dina . jack : whatever victor has going on in his life , he 's very lucky to have you by his side . look , for what it 's worth , i want him back behind his desk at newman as soon as possible , not that i have anything against victoria . in fact , that 's the problem . i have nothing against victoria . it 's just -- well , it 's a lot less fun to best her than when he 's at the helm . nikki : [ chuckles ] well , i ca n't say that reviving your rivalry is one of my fondest desires , but ... i 'll do what i can . traci : have i done something or -- or said something that caused you to think i 'm having second thoughts about our trip ? cane : no . see , i was having lunch with jill . traci : well , she should n't have a problem with this . cane : yeah , it 's okay , but then , see , billy came up to the table . traci : oh . oh . now that 's starting to make sense . cane : yeah , and he 's never been my biggest fan , and , uh ... traci : okay . do you want some advice ? completely disregard anything my brother may have said . he has exactly zero insight into how i 'm feeling . in fact , i did n't even tell him about our trip . cane : right , and that 's kind of what 's given me pause here . traci : what do you mean ? cane : you know , i 'm thinking that if you do n't want your brother knowing you 're going on this trip with me , then maybe you 're uncomfortable with it . traci : [ sighs ] absolutely not ! [ scoffs ] i just know how you and billy feel about each other . i did n't mention it to him because i felt like it would be an invitation for him to weigh in . and it sounds like , from what you 've said , i was right . now ... if you 're having second thoughts , that 's a different story . cane : no , no , no , no . i 'm not having second thoughts . i 'm okay with it if you 're okay with it , you know ? traci : i totally am . i 've been making this list of all the places that i want to show you , and , well , the list is so long that we 're gon na probably have to prolong our trip . cane : hey , that 's fine , as long as we do n't let billy know about it , okay ? traci : okay . cane : alright . traci : so , make yourself comfortable and i 'll finish packing really quick and we can head out . cane : sure . alright . i 'll be waiting . traci : okay . cane : okay . victor : chelsea and i were just catching up while i was waiting for you to come back . nick : ' k. is there something you need to tell me ? victor : yeah . i have an invitation for you . nick : invitation to what ? victor : a family dinner . your mother arranged it . would you call her , find out about time and place ? nick : okay . i 'm assuming at society since abby wo n't stand for it to be anywhere else . victor : you 're probably right . nick : alright . kids , no kids ? victor : no . adults only , okay ? nick : alright . i 'm in . victor : good . chelsea , will you join us ? chelsea : oh , i 'm -- i 'm heading out of town to see connor . i 'm not really sure what my future plans are , so ... victor : ah . nick : alright . uh , well , thanks for stopping by . hey , do n't forget , christian 's got a tee - ball game on thursday . victor : now , would i forget that ? that 's already in my calendar , you know . so are the rest of the regular games . nick : cool . victor : okay . see you there . nick : see you . victor : oh , by the way , um ... not that you need reminding . my grandchildren are very important to me . nick : not up for a newman family summit ? chelsea : at this point , i 'm not sure i should be part of your life at all . pampers is the first and only diaper nick : what did my dad say to you that 's got you so spun out ? chelsea : no , it was n't victor . um , it was adam . it was this custody case . i mean , the last thing we ought to be doing is waving red flags in front of him . you bringing me to a newman family event would definitely qualify . nick : i highly doubt adam will be invited . chelsea : exactly , which is just gon na make him more angry ! i mean , i 'm being welcomed while he 's being excluded ? he 's going to blow a fuse . it 's just gon na make him more determined to punish you by taking christian away . nick : look , adam 's been full throttle for a while now , okay ? and at the risk of repeating myself , we can not let him dictate the way we choose to live our lives . if you want to come to this dinner , then come . chelsea : what do you want me to do ? nick : well , obviously , it is your choice . but i 'd love for you to be there . chelsea : you 're okay with the statement that would make ? nick : very much so . cane : oh , hey . no , no . i got that . i got that . traci : [ chuckles ] thank you . cane : yeah . traci : wow . if i had known there was gon na be somebody to help me with my bags , i would have gone for the bigger suitcase . cane : well , famous authors should n't have to mule their own bags . traci : oh , my gosh . that 's very chivalrous of you . cane : yeah , well , i can thank you for that , you know . flynn 's been a good influence on me . traci : ah ! that 's nice to know . cane : so , are you ready to take the literary world by storm ? traci : i am . are you ? cane : oh , yeah . yeah , with you by my side . a dame like you ? you bet . come on . let 's go . traci : [ laughing ] okay . cane : come on . traci : [ chuckles ] cane : [ sighs ] traci : thank you . cane : you 're welcome . madame . traci : ah ! billy : [ sighs ] work or play ? jack : i 'm going over the social - media metrics for jcv . billy : [ sighs ] how do they look ? jack : pretty good . pretty good . room for improvement , but i 'm generally happy . billy : that 's good . did you get the sales report i put on your desk this morning ? jack : yeah , i did . not too bad . billy : not too bad , jack ? we overshot our targets by a bunch . it 's great . jack : you know what ? you 're absolutely right . i should be able to muster more enthusiasm than that . i will get an e - mail out congratulating the whole team . billy : what 's going on ? i mean , those kind of numbers should shoot you over the moon , so what is it ? dina ? jack : no , it 's nothing that specific . i - i just have this feeling of ennui , this dissatisfaction . billy : you 're in a funk . jack : yeah , that would say it . billy : you want my advice ? jack : sure . traci thinks that i need an epic new challenge . jill thinks i ought to take it easy . nikki thinks i ought to just keep moving on and focus on gratitude . billy : no . see , you need new sights , new sounds , jack . jack : that sounds like travel , and this is a bad time for that . billy : i think this is a perfect time . the company 's doing great , dina 's in good hands , and there 's no looming crisis on the horizon . jack : thank you for your suggestion . i will take it under advisement . billy : not the answer i was looking for . jack : that 's the best i can do right now . billy : i disagree . jack : wait , wait , wait . who are you calling ? billy : hey , it 's billy . uh , is the jet available ? okay . can you let me know when it 's back and fill it up with gas ? it 's gon na go on a trip to europe . actually , hold on a second . you want to go to japan ? new zealand , maybe ? jack : i - i am buried with work right now . billy : yeah , good idea . it 's gon na go to paris . jack is gon na go check on the competition . suite at the georges v sounds like a great idea . thank you very much . they 're gon na let us know when it 's back from atlanta . jack : i can not believe you just did that . billy : come on , jack . go see ashley . it 's the best thing you could do right now . jack : [ sighs ] | victor makes a deal with chelsea that if he can see connor he will not tell him that adam is alive he will let her break the news to her son . victir also agrees not to tell adam connor 's location because he would never do anything to upset his grandson . victor invites nick and cherlsea to a family dinner that nikki is planning and after a discussion about whether she should go to the dinner nick persudes chelsea to go with him to the family dinner . cane tells jill about his friendship with traci and that he is the inspiration for her new novel . jill is very supportive and glad that cane is moving on with his life without lily .. billy is n't happy that cane and traci are traveling together to new york and tells him so this causes cane to think he should not travel with traci to new york . canbe talsk to traci about his conversation with billy and traci tells him not to listen to her brother because she is very happy they are traveling together and that they will be spending time together when he is n't busy with the conference and she is n't busy workinon getting her book published . rey uncovers new information about chance and tells nick he has been involved in money laundering and other shady finnacial deals this is shocking to nick because it is out of character for chance but he tells him to keep investigating because chance is the key to keeping custody of christian . jack talks to billy , jill and nikki , and traci who all give him diffrent advice about how to gwet out of his funk but in the end he reluctantly takes billy 's advice and goes to paris to see ashley | <s>[INST] [ previously_on ] nick : i want to know what adam was up to those three years in vegas where we all thought he was dead and gone . i think if you turn over enough stones , you will find some shady behavior . nick : as soon as i tell sharon about some of the stuff adam 's pulled , she might be done with him , too . chelsea : she may be able to distance herself from him . he 's not gon na let me do that . he wants connor , nick . nick : he wants you , chelsea . traci : i 'm gon na have to go back to new york soon and get everything in motion . cane : when are you going ? i mean , 'cause there 's a seminar- that i was thinking of attending , and if we 're there at the same time , we could -- i do n't know -- see a show . jack : you 've made me see that i got to make some changes in my life . and i will . billy : this is , uh , delia 's . esther : uh ... billy : what 's it doing here ? esther : oh , my god . i - i have no idea . i - i packed up her things ages ago . billy : delia ! dee ! [ breathing heavily ] dee ? ! dee , where are you ? ! sweetheart ? ! sweetheart , come back to daddy ! dee ? ! [ crying ] [ engine starts ] [ engine revs , tires screech ] delia : [ echoing ] aaaaah ! billy : [ breathing heavily ] [ sighs ] rey : hey . nick : hey . rey : am i late ? nick : no . i 'm early . i 'm just anxious to know if you got any new information since the last time we talked . rey : y - yeah , there ... is more coming out of las vegas about adam 's buddy ... what he was up to out there . nick : i still just find it hard to fathom that somebody like chance would hang out with somebody like adam . rey : do - gooder type ? nick : you have no idea . but i guess my brother has always had a way of reeling people in against their better judgment . rey : yeah , well , chance may have had a sterling reputation , but from what i gather , lately , he 's gone in a very different direction . victor : there we go . nikki : so , no decaf today ? victor : no , my sweetheart , because i 'm sick and tired of walking around in a fog , okay ? nikki : oh , from your medication ? has it really gotten that bad ? victor : no , no , no , no . i 'm just joking . nikki : oh . victor : now , having said that ... considering how strong the treatment is ... that nate has administered , i must say the side effects are sort of minor . nikki : well , a little caffeine now and then wo n't hurt you . but do n't make a habit of it , because you need your sleep . victor : thank you , doctor . nikki : [ chuckles ] now , i know you you hate not being as alert as you normally would be , especially with everything that 's going on . victor : you 've got that . nikki : but , fortunately , everything is in order . victoria is managing newman enterprises , nicholas is taking care of the custody suit , with michael 's help , and , in the meantime , i get to look after you . victor : you 're doing a wonderful job . nikki : well , i was about to say that . victor : really ? nikki : it is such a gift to be able to spend this time with you . i think we should make the most out of it . victor : now , why do i get the feeling that ... you 've something on your mind ? what is it ? nikki : ahh . i 'm so glad you asked . victor : yes ? jill : so ... the meat and potatoes of this colloquium you 're attending ? cane : it 's about reducing the chance of parolees going back into prison by helping them ease the way they re - enter society . you know , that way they do n't kind of break the law again , pretty much . jill : mm . sounds very worthwhile . [ both chuckle ] cane : well , it is one of the better conferences in the field , so ... jill : of course , by next year , you do realize you will be on the panel as an expert ? cane : yeah , well , maybe , but you know what ? i do n't really care about the accolades . i just care about the work . jill : oh , i do n't know . a little recognition never hurt anybody . cane : this is true . this is true . jill : so , are you gon na have some time to hang out with charlie and find out about his internship ? cane : well , that depends -- if he wants to hang out with me . you know , he 's kind of enjoying life in the big city . jill : well , i 'm not worried about it . it 's new york . you 're gon na find a lot of things to entertain yourself . cane : yeah . well , i will be there with traci , so , you know ... jill : oh ? cane : yeah . turns out she 's gon na be there at the same time , you know , because she has to see her editor about her new book . jill : well ... that 's a fun coincidence . cane : yeah . yeah . and it turns out the publishing house is gon na throw this big , swank party , which they do n't normally do at this stage in the process , but they 're really excited about the potential of this novel , so there you go . jill : sounds glam . cane : yeah . and i 'll let you know how it goes , 'cause i 'm invited , 'cause , you see , i 'm the inspiration for a main character . jill : wait . what ? cane : mm - hmm . flynn 's the name . solving crimes is the game . [ both laugh ] born to be wild additional sponsorship cane : well , traci read me the whole thing , and it turns out like an homage to raymond chandler , and flynn -- well , the story centers around him . i ca n't really tell who the real hero is -- whether it 's flynn or it 's velma , so ... jill : but i do n't see the connection . cane : what , between flynn and velma ? jill : no , no , no . no , between you and a hard - boiled ' 40s detective . private eye . cane : oh . well , basics like they 're both going through all this internal conflict , you know ? jill : mm ? cane : yeah , yeah . well , see , in the beginning of the novel , uh , you know , flynn is heartbroken from a failed relationship . then , later on , kind of , he builds himself back up , with velma 's encouragement . um ... that 's his girl friday . jill : honey , this does n't bother you ? cane : no . why should it bother me ? jill : well , traci 's delving into your private life , and she 's putting it on public display . cane : i do n't worry about that . listen , i 'm honored , you know ? she has a gift , and she 's taking something that 's personal and she 's making it universal . jill : okay . so , this is a story that will inspire anybody who 's ever had the ground fall out from under them . cane : exactly . yes . jill : wow . i keep forgetting that we have a famous author in the family . when this book comes out , i 'll have to get a copy . cane : yeah . yeah . actually , you got to do more than that . apart from all that stuff , it 's got everything going for it . it 's , uh -- it 's suspenseful . it 's entertaining . it 's funny . it 's romantic . jill : oh , it 's a romance ? cane : yeah , yeah . like all of traci 's novels , there 's romance in it , but do n't expect me to tell you who flynn ends up with ... [ imitating james cagney ] 'cause my lips are sealed . jill : [ laughs ] no , no . i do n't want any spoilers . i just love seeing you like this . you 're in a good mood . you 're looking forward to your trip to new york . if traci has any part in this at all , more power to her . jack : are n't you cutting it kind of close ? traci : oh , hello ! no . i 'll be fine . i do so much traveling now that i 've got packing down to a science . jack : i love how buoyant your mood has been ever since you started planning this trip . i envy it . traci : well , jack , there 's absolutely nothing stopping you from climbing on an airplane and going to new york city anytime you want . jack : it is n't the trip i envy so much as the outlook , the way you -- the way you just take life as it comes , open yourself to every opportunity , the way you went after that book . you waited for inspiration , and when it came , you followed where it led . i should take a lesson or two from you . traci : oh , no . that 's a terrible idea . jack : is it ? traci : jack , a - a person should be true to their own nature . jack : okay . and what 's mine ? traci : well , you are a hard - charging , driven businessman . you are one of the most determined people i have ever known , and you , jack abbott , are the power of intention personified . jack : i do n't know if that 's good or bad . traci : [ laughing ] no , it 's you . it 's you . it 's the kind of person you are . you are never happier than when you are bending reality to your will . and if you 're feeling a little at loose ends lately -- and from what you 've said and how you 've said it , i think you are -- it 's only because you 're between challenges . jack : well , i guess that 's one way of looking at it . traci : jack , oh my gosh ! look what you just accomplished ! you set jabot back up on its feet -- a major miracle ! and , at the same time , you developed this amazing treatment program in neil 's honor , helping musicians battle their addictions . that 's saving lives ! jack : that part 's easy . that 's what neil would have wanted . traci : yes . but i 'm proud of you , jack . and i am waiting with bated breath to see what you take on next . it will be epic and nearly impossible because that 's just how you roll . jack : i need a new mountain to climb . traci : mm - hmm . jack : question is , which one ? traci : well , the tallest one , of course . [ laughs ] rey : my sources in vegas have picked up on various rumors . depending on who you talk to , chance was involved in money laundering and other shady financial dealings . nick : okay , this is just bizarre . he 's a chancellor . he 's got a crazy trust fund . he does n't need money . plus , it goes against everything he ever stood for . rey : because of his law - enforcement background ? nick : chance has always been a truth - and - justice kind of guy . rey : [ sniffs ] well ... my guys in vegas are pros , nick . nick : [ sighs ] alright . then ... whose money are we talking about ? how are they doing it ? who 's spreading these rumors ? rey : i do n't have those answers yet . nick : well , keep digging . if we can somehow get proof that adam has an association with a criminal enterprise , it can go a long way in proving to the court that he is an unfit father . victor : a family dinner ? ah ! nikki : yes . it 's been far too long since we 've had everybody together in one place ... victor : mm - hmm . nikki : ... and it would be a wonderful reminder of how much love and support you have . victor : hmm . who do you think of inviting ? nikki : well , i was thinking it would be a grown - up evening . you know , the kids can join us next time . victor : i agree with you . yeah . nikki : okay . well , thankfully , nicholas and victoria have ironed out their differences , so they will be there , and billy and abby and summer . victor : mm - hmm . but i guess ... adam will not be invited . nikki : do you have a problem with that ? victor : no . he 's trying to take christian away from nicholas , and , uh ... i think it 'll be a long time before those two sit down at a table and break bread together . nikki : yeah . well , i am willing to hold out hope that he will come around sometime in the future , but , for now , things are what they are . victor : your instincts are absolutely right on . nikki : i 'm glad you 're able to accept that . i know adam is a difficult subject . victor : and always will be . nikki : yeah . oh . i 'm gon na be late for my meeting with the park supervisor . victor : oh . nikki : would you like to come with me ? i mean , it wo n't take very long . victor : you go ahead . i 'll see you there , okay ? i need to take care of something else before . alright ? nikki : do i even want to know ? victor : uh , no . rey : you , too , baby . alright . well , i better get back to my meeting . alright . talk soon . nick : sounds like things are better between you two . rey : she told me about the two of you confronting adam . it really got to her , the way that he went to paul , made it seem that chelsea was responsible for her husband 's death . just goes to show what kind of low - life scum the guy is . nick : well , i really hope it sunk in . sharon needs to stop rooting for this guy to have a miraculous change of heart and see him for the serious threat that he is . rey : i - i think she does now , finally . nick : and it was a real wake - up call for chelsea , too . until you mentioned what adam had done , i could tell there was a small part of her that refused to believe there was n't anything left of the man she used to love . rey : what did these two women with so much going on ever see in this jerk ? nick : man , i have no idea . but the important thing is their eyes are open now . you and i have to make sure that the judge 's are open , too . jill : so , have you had any lucky selling your house yet ? cane : uh , no offers yet , but the agent 's gon na keep showing it to people while i 'm out of town . uh , so ... what 's next you ? what are your plans ? ooh , what 's on your bucket list ? jill : well , it 's funny you should ask . i 'm off to bali . cane : mmm . i 've always wanted to go to bali . jill : it 's supposed to be spectacular . cane : mm - hmm . i 've heard . jill : there 's waterfalls and beaches . the food is to die for . cane : mm - hmm . jill : i 'm pretty excited about it . cane : mm - hmm . jill : oh , my god . there is this monkey rainforest where the monkeys come right up to you . cane : yeah . sounds like an amazing experience . make sure you take pictures , okay ? jill : i will . why are you looking at me that way ? cane : well , you 're an inspiration to me . jill : aww , sweetie . listen , if you were n't going to new york , i would take you to bali with me . cane : yeah . well ... i can go there another time , so ... jill : tell me something . what [ clears throat ] does lily think about your trip to new york ? cane : uh , i do n't know . i have n't spoken to her about it , and i 'm not sure if charlie 's mentioned it . if he has , i do n't know . i have no clue . jill : well , houston , we have a breakthrough . [ both chuckle ] cane : alright . what is that meant to mean ? jill : just that , for the first time since your breakup , i do n't get the sense that you 're doing something to impress lily or to prove something to her , and i call that `` progress . `` cane : yeah , well , you may be right , 'cause it does feel like a step forward . i do know that . jill : mm . billy : hey . uh , can i get a scotch on the rocks , please ? jill : good morning , billy . cane : hey . billy : hey , mom . jill : hi , sweetie . mwah ! would you like to join us ? cane has to leave soon . billy : no , i 'm -- i 'm fine . jill : are you meeting someone ? billy : no , i 'm just taking a little break from work . jill : then sit down ! cane has to leave soon , but he can tell you all about his trip to new york . oh , what am i thinking ? you 've probably heard all about it from traci already . billy : are you going to new york with traci ? jill : oh , they 'll just be there at the same time . cane : yeah . we 're flying out together and actually staying in the same hotel . billy : okay . why do n't you tell me what the hell kind of game you think you 're playing ? chelsea : i only called to see how my son is doing at camp . no ! i 'm not answering any questions about calvin 's will ! because it 's not my priority right now . mom ... mom . mom ! okay . you know what ? that 's it . i have to go . just tell connor that i love him and that i will be seeing him soon . ugh ! my mother is driving me absolutely crazy ! victor : whoa . why do you look so surprised ? you must have known that you would have to face me someday again . i wanted to consolidate my credit cards in to a personal loan to pay them off faster . lending tree made lenders compete for my business and i ended up with a loan that saved me over $ 9000 and no more credit card debt . i mean $ 9000 ! cane : there 's no reason for you to worry , okay ? i 'm going to be in new york at a conference , and when i 'm finished with my day , we 're gon na spend some time together . that 's all , okay ? billy : whose idea was that ? cane : it was my idea , and i suggested we have some dinner and maybe go see a show . besides that , my son 's there doing an internship . billy : yeah , but you 're not staying with charlie , are you ? cane : no , i 'm not staying with charlie , billy , because , you see , i 'm not a big fan of couch surfing , and i do n't really want to crash his style . billy : i just do n't get why you would think it 's a good idea that you tag along with my sister . jill : just the way i do n't get why you 're interrogating cane . billy : because this is an important trip for my sister . she needs to focus to make sure that her book is a success . cane : that is right , and i would like the book to be successful . billy : oh . well , then you would agree that you do n't belong there , because you have nothing to do with my sister 's career , right ? in fact , i 'm sure you 're just a major distraction for her . jill : billy , billy , billy , honey , you 're wrong , because traci 's book is about cane , or at least her main character is based on him . cane : [ sighs ] crazy , i know . jill : and plus her publisher wants to meet him . i 'm sure he 'll take a look at you and want you to pose for the cover . cane : alright , listen . i swear there 's nothing in this for me . let me rephrase that , okay ? traci and i have gotten a lot out of our relationship , okay ? and i 'm not taking advantage of her , alright ? we -- we appreciate our friendship . that 's -- we do , alright ? and case in point -- when dina went into memory care , it was really hard on your family , and your sister had no one to talk to , alright ? and i was there for her . billy : she 's got plenty of people to talk to about that , cane . she does n't need you . cane : okay . in that case , why do n't they come to new york , as well , 'cause the more , the merrier ? listen , i do n't know why you 're doing this and you 're turning it into something more than it is . you do n't have to , billy , okay ? it 's not a big deal . we just enjoy spending our time together . that 's it . okay ? jill : it 's that simple , honey . cane : right . thank you . jill : come on . pull up a chair . billy : no , i 'm fine . i lost my appetite . jill : ohh ! cane : why am i not surprised ? jill : what , that he was so rude to you ? cane : no , no , no . it 's -- i know he 's just being protective of traci . i mean , that 's -- jill : oh , please . traci 's a grown woman . she does n't need her little brother picking out her friends for her . you just go to new york and you have a ball , okay ? and do n't give billy a second thought . chelsea : can i ... get you something to drink ? victor : no , thank you . very kind of you to offer . you 've made yourself quite at home here . chelsea : same could be said for you . do you always just walk in unannounced ? victor : mm - hmm . well , that 's because your housekeeper let me in , you know . i guess you did n't hear that because you were ... in an argument with your mother . anita -- is that still her name , or has she changed it ? chelsea : no , she changed it . victor : oh , she changed her name . i see . well , that 's a good way to keep her daughter hidden . chelsea : my mom and i both did what we thought was best for connor . victor : uh - huh . to keep connor away from me ? chelsea : to keep his mother out of jail . victor : i see . chelsea : connor 's my world . i will do anything and everything to keep him safe and make sure we 're together . i 'm not gon na apologize for that to anyone . victor : mm - hmm . but you 're not together now , are you ? chelsea : no , but i 'm -- i 'm going to see him soon . victor : mm - hmm . chelsea : i did n't intend to be in town for this long . victor : mm . i 'm sorry about your loss . was he close to his stepfather ? chelsea : he was very close . victor : really ? chelsea : mm - hmm , and even though connor took the news of calvin 's passing very well , it 's gon na be a long , hard road ahead of him . that 's why , in the meantime , i do n't want to add to any of his confusion . i do n't intend to tell him anything about adam being alive . victor : right . so , you 're not gon na bring him to genoa city ? chelsea : hard no . victor : oh , yeah . i understand . well , you know , i do n't blame you . adam has been behaving rather erratically and recklessly , i think . chelsea : mm - hmm . victor : not taking a word of advice from me . chelsea : yeah . well , he has n't listened to me , either . given the sense of entitlement he 's shown toward christian and the complete lack of respect for the bond nick has formed with him , i ca n't trust him around my son . victor : i can see how you feel that way . chelsea : thank you . victor : yeah . chelsea : i was n't sure how you were gon na react about my decision . victor : oh , did you think i would blindly side with adam ? chelsea : well , when you walked in here , i really was n't quite sure what to think . victor : mm - hmm . well , now that you know i 'm not a threat , perhaps you will ... enable me to see my grandson . you know , you just tell me where he is and i 'll go find him . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . chelsea : victor ... i 'm not against you visiting connor , but , um ... it would just have to happen the right way . victor : mm . it needs to happen immediately . chelsea : will you just try to see this from his perspective ? victor : mm - hmm . chelsea : he just lost somebody very important to him . i mean , he 's lost everyone how 's ever been important to him , except for his grandmother and me . victor : i understand , but you must understand that if ... i now show up ... and re - establish contact with connor , it 'll remind him that he has a large family ... that cares about him and that loves him . chelsea : right . um ... and that 's a beautiful sentiment . i just feel like this news about adam is gon na come as a shock to him . you know , he 's a little boy . he 's not prepared for that . victor : well , let 's prepare him now . chelsea : okay . i mean , i can -- i can talk to him about it when i see him . you just have to promise me you wo n't tell him about adam if i 'm not there . victor : i promise you i will do nothing to upset that boy , okay ? so , where is he ? oh . so , this is summer camp . chelsea : yeah . he 's there for a few more weeks . victor : uh - huh . so , kindly add my name to his list of visitors , alright ? [ door opens ] nick : what 's going on ? jill : mm . thank you so much for agreeing to meet with me . jack : oh , thank you for reaching out to me . billy told me you were in town , fresh in from china , on your way to your next adventure . jill : yes , china to bali , with a short detour through genoa city . it 's a little out of the way , but ... jack : but there is no substitute for time with family . jill : cane told me that you and your sisters had to put dina in a memory - care facility . i 'm so sorry , honey . jack : yeah . we tried to keep her at home as long as we could , but when she got too frightened and disoriented to cope with life there , i -- jill : [ sighs ] my heart really goes out to you . it 's hard enough to lose somebody all at once , but bit by bit , day by day ? i mean , that must be torture . jack : yeah , we still get occasional brief glimpses of the woman she once was , but ... those are rarer and rarer now . jill : you know , every once in a while , i have an occasional visit from katherine in my dreams . and it is n't the real thing , but at least it 's a small comfort . jack : funny you should mention that . i keep seeing dina in mine -- a much younger dina , and we have heart - to - hearts that ... i 'm not sure could ever happen again . jill : really ? and what does this dream version of dina have to say to you ? jack : oh , nothing that comforting . that was never her strong suit . jill : [ laughing ] no , it never was . jack : she keeps pushing me , though . to do what , i - i do n't know . she has n't said . but ... she keeps asking me what do i want ? jill : and in this dream ... do you have an answer to that ? traci : [ chuckles ] hey ! cane : hey . traci : you 're early ! come on in . come on in . cane : okay . sure . traci : oh . wow . uh , i 'm not finished packing just yet , but i 'm -- i 'm close . you must be really eager to get to new york city . [ both chuckle ] so , did you take sam to the sitter already ? cane : yeah , yeah , yeah , i did . traci : okay . cane : my bags are there in the car . but , listen , there 's something i want to , uh , say to you first . traci : okay . what -- what is it ? cane : [ sighs ] if you 're having second thoughts about spending time with me on this trip , you know , you can just tell me and i will , you know , steer clear of you . jill : the next time you have that dream , i know what you should say to dina . jack : is that right ? what ? jill : you should tell her to back off -- that you 've suffered serious losses , you 're grieving , and you want to respect that process . jack : when did you become so wise ? jill : mm . i went through a similar situation when my marriage to colin ended . jack : yeah , i heard about that . i 'm sorry that did n't work out . jill : yeah , me , too , but it was for the best , and i knew it . but here 's the thing . you ca n't launch into a new phase of your life without grieving what you 're leaving behind , and once you 've done that , once you 've made peace with that ... then the way forward will be much more clear to you . jack : who knows ? i may end up in bali myself . jill : if you 're real lucky . jack : [ chuckles ] nikki : well , hello , you two . jack : hey , nikki . how are you ? nikki : very well , thank you . jill , i heard you were in for a visit . jill : yes . the proverbial bad penny . nikki : you said that . jill : mm , but you were thinking it ! anyway , on that note , i have many people to see and a very brief time to see them . jack : great to see you . jill : thank you . jack : travel safely , and thanks for the good advice . jill : you 're very welcome . nikki . nikki : jill . good advice ? from jill ? that 'll be the day . jack : now , be nice . nikki : i was nice . jack : come here . sit down . so , were you headed anywhere in particular ? nikki : actually , here . victor 's joining me . jack : oh , joy . nikki : the way you say that , it must be true . jack : what 's that ? nikki : i understand you and victor had a drink the other day and things were relatively civil . jack : you 're welcome . nikki : so , what caused this change in attitude , not that i 'm complaining ? jack : well , i figured with everything that victor has going on in his life , he did n't need me piling on . nikki : you mean with adam coming back ? jack : among other things . nikki : mm . well , i suppose we are all approaching that time of life when ... things that seemed so far away maybe are n't anymore . and i think the only thing we can do to get through it is to cherish every moment we do have and keep moving forward as best we can . and i know you understand what i mean because you and your family just did that with dina . jack : whatever victor has going on in his life , he 's very lucky to have you by his side . look , for what it 's worth , i want him back behind his desk at newman as soon as possible , not that i have anything against victoria . in fact , that 's the problem . i have nothing against victoria . it 's just -- well , it 's a lot less fun to best her than when he 's at the helm . nikki : [ chuckles ] well , i ca n't say that reviving your rivalry is one of my fondest desires , but ... i 'll do what i can . traci : have i done something or -- or said something that caused you to think i 'm having second thoughts about our trip ? cane : no . see , i was having lunch with jill . traci : well , she should n't have a problem with this . cane : yeah , it 's okay , but then , see , billy came up to the table . traci : oh . oh . now that 's starting to make sense . cane : yeah , and he 's never been my biggest fan , and , uh ... traci : okay . do you want some advice ? completely disregard anything my brother may have said . he has exactly zero insight into how i 'm feeling . in fact , i did n't even tell him about our trip . cane : right , and that 's kind of what 's given me pause here . traci : what do you mean ? cane : you know , i 'm thinking that if you do n't want your brother knowing you 're going on this trip with me , then maybe you 're uncomfortable with it . traci : [ sighs ] absolutely not ! [ scoffs ] i just know how you and billy feel about each other . i did n't mention it to him because i felt like it would be an invitation for him to weigh in . and it sounds like , from what you 've said , i was right . now ... if you 're having second thoughts , that 's a different story . cane : no , no , no , no . i 'm not having second thoughts . i 'm okay with it if you 're okay with it , you know ? traci : i totally am . i 've been making this list of all the places that i want to show you , and , well , the list is so long that we 're gon na probably have to prolong our trip . cane : hey , that 's fine , as long as we do n't let billy know about it , okay ? traci : okay . cane : alright . traci : so , make yourself comfortable and i 'll finish packing really quick and we can head out . cane : sure . alright . i 'll be waiting . traci : okay . cane : okay . victor : chelsea and i were just catching up while i was waiting for you to come back . nick : ' k. is there something you need to tell me ? victor : yeah . i have an invitation for you . nick : invitation to what ? victor : a family dinner . your mother arranged it . would you call her , find out about time and place ? nick : okay . i 'm assuming at society since abby wo n't stand for it to be anywhere else . victor : you 're probably right . nick : alright . kids , no kids ? victor : no . adults only , okay ? nick : alright . i 'm in . victor : good . chelsea , will you join us ? chelsea : oh , i 'm -- i 'm heading out of town to see connor . i 'm not really sure what my future plans are , so ... victor : ah . nick : alright . uh , well , thanks for stopping by . hey , do n't forget , christian 's got a tee - ball game on thursday . victor : now , would i forget that ? that 's already in my calendar , you know . so are the rest of the regular games . nick : cool . victor : okay . see you there . nick : see you . victor : oh , by the way , um ... not that you need reminding . my grandchildren are very important to me . nick : not up for a newman family summit ? chelsea : at this point , i 'm not sure i should be part of your life at all . pampers is the first and only diaper nick : what did my dad say to you that 's got you so spun out ? chelsea : no , it was n't victor . um , it was adam . it was this custody case . i mean , the last thing we ought to be doing is waving red flags in front of him . you bringing me to a newman family event would definitely qualify . nick : i highly doubt adam will be invited . chelsea : exactly , which is just gon na make him more angry ! i mean , i 'm being welcomed while he 's being excluded ? he 's going to blow a fuse . it 's just gon na make him more determined to punish you by taking christian away . nick : look , adam 's been full throttle for a while now , okay ? and at the risk of repeating myself , we can not let him dictate the way we choose to live our lives . if you want to come to this dinner , then come . chelsea : what do you want me to do ? nick : well , obviously , it is your choice . but i 'd love for you to be there . chelsea : you 're okay with the statement that would make ? nick : very much so . cane : oh , hey . no , no . i got that . i got that . traci : [ chuckles ] thank you . cane : yeah . traci : wow . if i had known there was gon na be somebody to help me with my bags , i would have gone for the bigger suitcase . cane : well , famous authors should n't have to mule their own bags . traci : oh , my gosh . that 's very chivalrous of you . cane : yeah , well , i can thank you for that , you know . flynn 's been a good influence on me . traci : ah ! that 's nice to know . cane : so , are you ready to take the literary world by storm ? traci : i am . are you ? cane : oh , yeah . yeah , with you by my side . a dame like you ? you bet . come on . let 's go . traci : [ laughing ] okay . cane : come on . traci : [ chuckles ] cane : [ sighs ] traci : thank you . cane : you 're welcome . madame . traci : ah ! billy : [ sighs ] work or play ? jack : i 'm going over the social - media metrics for jcv . billy : [ sighs ] how do they look ? jack : pretty good . pretty good . room for improvement , but i 'm generally happy . billy : that 's good . did you get the sales report i put on your desk this morning ? jack : yeah , i did . not too bad . billy : not too bad , jack ? we overshot our targets by a bunch . it 's great . jack : you know what ? you 're absolutely right . i should be able to muster more enthusiasm than that . i will get an e - mail out congratulating the whole team . billy : what 's going on ? i mean , those kind of numbers should shoot you over the moon , so what is it ? dina ? jack : no , it 's nothing that specific . i - i just have this feeling of ennui , this dissatisfaction . billy : you 're in a funk . jack : yeah , that would say it . billy : you want my advice ? jack : sure . traci thinks that i need an epic new challenge . jill thinks i ought to take it easy . nikki thinks i ought to just keep moving on and focus on gratitude . billy : no . see , you need new sights , new sounds , jack . jack : that sounds like travel , and this is a bad time for that . billy : i think this is a perfect time . the company 's doing great , dina 's in good hands , and there 's no looming crisis on the horizon . jack : thank you for your suggestion . i will take it under advisement . billy : not the answer i was looking for . jack : that 's the best i can do right now . billy : i disagree . jack : wait , wait , wait . who are you calling ? billy : hey , it 's billy . uh , is the jet available ? okay . can you let me know when it 's back and fill it up with gas ? it 's gon na go on a trip to europe . actually , hold on a second . you want to go to japan ? new zealand , maybe ? jack : i - i am buried with work right now . billy : yeah , good idea . it 's gon na go to paris . jack is gon na go check on the competition . suite at the georges v sounds like a great idea . thank you very much . they 're gon na let us know when it 's back from atlanta . jack : i can not believe you just did that . billy : come on , jack . go see ashley . it 's the best thing you could do right now . jack : [ sighs ]Summarize.[/INST]victor makes a deal with chelsea that if he can see connor he will not tell him that adam is alive he will let her break the news to her son . victir also agrees not to tell adam connor 's location because he would never do anything to upset his grandson . victor invites nick and cherlsea to a family dinner that nikki is planning and after a discussion about whether she should go to the dinner nick persudes chelsea to go with him to the family dinner . cane tells jill about his friendship with traci and that he is the inspiration for her new novel . jill is very supportive and glad that cane is moving on with his life without lily .. billy is n't happy that cane and traci are traveling together to new york and tells him so this causes cane to think he should not travel with traci to new york . canbe talsk to traci about his conversation with billy and traci tells him not to listen to her brother because she is very happy they are traveling together and that they will be spending time together when he is n't busy with the conference and she is n't busy workinon getting her book published . rey uncovers new information about chance and tells nick he has been involved in money laundering and other shady finnacial deals this is shocking to nick because it is out of character for chance but he tells him to keep investigating because chance is the key to keeping custody of christian . jack talks to billy , jill and nikki , and traci who all give him diffrent advice about how to gwet out of his funk but in the end he reluctantly takes billy 's advice and goes to paris to see ashley</s> | 17,594 |

will : well , you know my mom . i mean , once she gets something in her head . sonny : [ laughing ] will : so what i need you to do , my love , is find out exactly what 's going on . warn me about the level of humiliation i can expect . then i will be able to get a strategy going . sonny : you really need to stop worrying about this . will : well , that 's easy for you to say . you 're gon na be one of the drunk partygoers laughing at my expense . you know , if you really love me ... sonny : mm - hmm . will : you would find a way to talk her out of it completely . sonny : actually ... i have a plan . will : okay , i like it . what is it ? gabi : oh , hi ! i did n't think you guys would still be home . will : i 'm actually on my way out . so ... i will ... see you later . gab do n't you have to go to work ? sonny : yeah , i 'll be leaving ... soon . and you 'll have the whole place to yourself . jj : i was just talking to someone from school . abigail : hmm . a bitch ? jj : i lost my temper . abigail : was it that girl bev ? that one who 's always drooling all over you ? is she still harassing you for not hanging out with her and rory any more ? jj : you know , i 've got ta get going . abigail : okay , well , do n't be home too late , because mom and i are gon na finish up all the christmas decorations , and we will need your help . jj : okay , yeah . i do n't wan na miss that . you know how much i like to cheese up the house for the holidays . abigail : uh , jj . jj : yeah ? abigail : i was talking to mom last night . uh ... jj : okay . abigail : i know i 've said this to you before , but i do n't know if you really get how happy she is to have you home , and that things are going so well for you . she 's really , really proud of you . and so am i . nicole : so this is n't the first time you walked away from a marriage with kristen dimera . brady : no . nicole : okay , uh , the first time you walked away was back in may ? brady : may . yeah , may . right . i 've always had lousy judgment with women . present company excluded , of course . nicole : [ laughs ] [ sighs ] okay , um , let 's talk a little bit about the pre - cana sessions you had before the wedding . brady : pre - cana , yeah . shoot . what ? nicole : well , i mean , did father eric seem uncomfortable with kristen ? anything to suggest that maybe something had happened between them ? brady : no . never . never . nicole : so you believe eric when he says he was drugged , and that the sex with kristen was non - consensual ? brady : i do . i 'd like to believe ... without reservation ... about what he 's saying . but , you know , he admits that he has no recollection of what happened that night . he forgot about the whole thing , and he ca n't prove anything about what he 's talking about . so i guess the only person that really knows what went on in that room is the bitch ... kristen . daniel : now back when you were sick , after your time at the capital , i found some irregularities in your blood levels . eric : i remember . daniel : the toxicologist studied the screen for days , could never pinpoint a cause . but now that we know you were drugged -- and like i told you before , she must 've used a masking agent . there is a new test . we can do a procedure that deteriorates the masking agent and reveals the original poison in your bloodstream . eric : wait , you think it 's still in my bloodstream ? daniel : i do n't know , there could be trace amounts . but if i can cut through that masking agent , we can i.d . them . eric : we can do that today ? daniel : oh , yeah . i 'm all set up . but got ta tell you ... you are gon na be hooked up to an iv for hours , lying in a bed . now it 's not dangerous , but because of the temperature differences between your body and the drug , i got ta warn you ... there will be pain . and it could be acute pain . eric : yeah , well , i 'm fine with that . no physical pain can match the emotional hell i 'm going through . whoa ! sweet mother of softness . maggie , this must be so hard for you . have you spoken to victor at all ? maggie : oh , ha , only when it 's absolutely necessary . abigail : right . maggie : it 's just so ... sad to me , and so hurtful to know that he 's reverted back to the man that he was . abigail : god , i ca n't even imagine how heartbreaking this must be for you . maggie : i 'm gon na be all right . i have lots to be thankful for . abigail : yeah . maggie : and most of all , my family . abigail : [ laughs ] kind of a bummer . you know , you , mom , and i are all gon na be flying solo for the holidays this year . and then there 's new year 's . maggie : oh , well . we 'll be together , right ? abigail : yeah . maggie : jj 's back home , that 's a relief and a blessing . abigail : yeah . maggie : and he 's gon na have three dates for new year 's . abigail : [ laughs ] maggie : [ laughs ] abigail : i do n't know , i just ... hope that it 's all as good as it seems to be ... with jj . you know , i mean , um ... i just never want it to go back to the way that it was . maggie : so are you afraid that it might ? abigail : i was n't . i was actually feeling really optimistic , but ... [ sighs ] aunt maggie , i walked in on something that really has me worried . jj : can you just tell me what you want so we can get this over with ? theresa : you know what i want . i told you . a little something to help me relax . jj : you have a lot more connections than i ever did . ca n't you just do it yourself ? theresa : are n't you a little young for memory loss ? why would i go out in the cold and dark and deal with dirtbag losers when i have you ? and remember , you 're paying . jj : but i do n't have anymore money . i do n't have enough . theresa : seriously ? jj : i do n't . theresa : fine . i 'll spot you this one time , but you need to figure it out . [ sighs ] what the hell are you doing ? jj : oh , i 'm deleting the video , so now you do n't have anything on me . ah ... it 's over . nicole : here 's the thing , though , brady . did n't eric seem totally surprised when the sex tape aired at the wedding ? brady : yeah , yeah . kristen was . i mean , everybody was . the whole damn church was . nicole : what happened after it played ? brady : pandemonium , craziness . everyone freaking out , everybody accusing each other of this and that . nicole : you must 've been devastated . brady : sure . i mean , it 's not every day you get to punch your brother priest in the face for sleeping with your fiancée . it sounds funny when i say it . what are you doing , are we done ? nicole : no . no , we 're not done , brady . what is going on with you ? why are you acting this way ? tad : have you seen gabi this morning ? will : mm ... yeah , for a minute , why ? tad : uh , i do n't know . i saw her last night , she seemed kind of upset , so . will : really ? tad : yeah . will : not to me . did she say what it was about ? tad : no , she did n't wan na get into it . will : it 's probably about nick . tad : man , i hope not . that guy was a creep . he did n't deserve her . what ? will : do you have a crush on gabi ? gabi : [ sighs ] [ knocking on door ] gabi : uh , i 'll get it , sonny . sami : is sonny here ? kate : and will ? gabi : yes . no . sonny : hey ! sami : [ laughing ] hello ! gabi : they came to see the baby , so ... sonny : well , you should run in there right now . she 's about to fall asleep . she is making the cutest sounds . she 's trying so hard to talk . sami : it all happens so quickly . sonny : mm - hmm . and i 'm expecting to discuss international politics with her any day now . sami : [ laughing ] gabi : okay , so i 'll just -- i 'll go take 'em in since you 're heading out , right ? sami : okay . sonny : yeah , yeah , yeah . gabi : okay . sami : all right , bye ! sonny : it was great to see you , ladies . gabi : bye , sonny . sonny : see ya ! gabi : he 's gone . sami : [ sighs ] kate : okay . now ... we can all talk privately . abigail : i walked in on jj and he was hanging up the phone with someone . he seemed like he was really angry at her . maggie : her ? abigail : yeah , yeah , it had to have been a her because of what he called her . he called her a bi -- not a very nice word is what he called her . maggie : right . abigail : ugh , i just -- i wonder if maybe it 's one of his not - so - nice friends maybe giving him a hard time for not hanging out with them any more . maggie : well , he 's just gon na have to find some other better friends . abigail : and i do n't mean to be complaining about having him here , it 's been so great . it 's just that he 's here a lot . you know ? and ... i do n't know , aunt maggie . i just worry that maybe he 's not being very social at school . maggie : well , this is his first year at salem high after boarding school . now that ca n't be easy . abigail : no , i know . maggie : and ... you had trouble - making friends when you first got back too , as i recall . abigail : huh . maggie : uh - huh . and it took time . time . abigail : hmm . it did , it took time . and i had great gram giving me advice . maggie : yeah . she was an expert at that . she always knew exactly what to say to cheer someone up and to give them hope . it 's hard . it 's hard not to have them here . but she and great grandpa tom are still looking out for us . ca n't you feel them in this room ? abigail : [ sighs ] maggie : and do n't you ever forget that . theresa : oh , my god . how could i have been so stupid ? jj : that 's a good question . theresa : the thing is i 'm not , you are . do you seriously think that was the only copy of that video i had ? jj : you have copies ? theresa : my friend jade in l.a. has it in her cloud ... forever [ laughing ] i sent it over coffee . `` see attachment ? `` so do n't get cute again , or next time i 'll tell jade to shoot that thing right over to the judge . got it ? call me when you get my drugs . and do n't take your time . daniel : while the drug is being administered , you 'll probably experience some delirium , kinda like a high fever . but do n't worry about it . once you come out of it , you 'll be fine . there 's no after - effects . eric : let 's just get this over with . brady : what do you mean ? nicole : you 're going through a rough time . to end all rough times . wha -- what 's with the flip attitude ? you think you 're fooling anyone ? brady : [ sighs ] nicole : so ? brady : all right . you caught me , nic , okay ? i ca n't pretend that kristen 's lies have n't hurt me , because they have . my life 's a wreck . i 'm a wreck . but i 'm determined not to wallow in self - pity . you know , i do n't wan na look behind me , i wan na move forward . and sometimes that means you have to force yourself not to feel things that you should n't . in the program , we call that , uh ... `` acting as if . `` it gets you from one crisis moment to hopefully the next not so much of a crisis moment , okay ? it 's just what -- it 's just what happens . but i -- if i 'm acting a little too cheerful , or my disposition is a little too flip for you , well , i 'm sorry . that 's -- that 's the reason . i 'm just trying to do this in a healthy way . you think this is healthy , do n't you ? nicole : i do . i 'm really proud of you , brady . kristen does not have control over you anymore , and i 'm really relieved how you 're handling this . brady : good . that 's what i wanted to hear . any more questions ? are we done ? nicole : no , i think i 've got everything i need for now . and i will let you know when we schedule your on - camera interview , okay ? brady : great . great . thank you . nicole : you 're welcome . thank you . brady : all right , see you later . nicole : okay , bye .

[ sniffles ] i 'm good . i 'm good . tad : will , man , gabi is my friend and i want her to be okay . that 's it . will : okay . i mean , obviously that 's it for me too , but ... now that -- you know , now that nick 's out of the picture for good , i think maybe gabi has some time and some space to meet , you know , a guy , like a new guy . you know , a funny guy . you know , kinda like you . tad : would you stop trying to hook me up with her ? gabi is my friend , that 's it . will : all right . let 's see . so what 's happening , sonny ? are you telling me you 're hiding in the closet ? i seriously love you . [ door closing ] sami : kate is , uh , putting arianna to bed . gabi : well , at least one of us is n't having trouble sleeping . sami : look . hey , listen , you ca n't obsess over this , okay ? you have to stop . gabi : [ scoffs ] you and kate keep telling me not to obsess . how can i not obsess ? i mean , this is really bad . sami : i know , okay ? believe me , i know that it is bad . and it 's rough right now , but it is gon na get better with some time , some distance . it will be better . gabi : i 'm not so sure . sami : you just need to move forward , gabi , and focus on happier things , right ? gabi : [ sighs ] i know , i just have try to , you know , keep this secret , and it 's really hard to do that with will and sonny here all the time . jj : hey , guys , thank you for meeting me . rory : yeah , well , it 's kind of weird that you asked . i mean , why would you wan na hang with a couple of losers like us ? jj : all right , look , man , i 've just been really stressed , that 's all . i 'm dealing with quite a bit right now . i 'm sorry that i called you guys losers . i 'm sorry . bev : it 's okay . i mean , we all say stupid stuff we do n't mean . rory : well , did you call us to get high ? jj : i ca n't right now . but i was actually wondering if you could hook me up . it 's not for me , it 's for someone else . rory : are you kidding ? jj : no , i mean it . it 's not for me . rory : no , i 'm saying , are you serious that you called us up and acted all nice and everything just to buy some of our stash ? nicole : [ gasps ] hey ! how 'd it go with eric ? did he agree to do that test ? daniel : well , he 's already in there . nicole : seriously ? daniel : well , once he decided , there 's no reason to wait . nicole : well , is he okay ? because i know you said that test could be kinda painful . daniel : well , it 's more than kinda painful . but he 's determined , he wants to prove he 's innocent for ... a lot of reasons . um , listen . i , uh -- i owe you a thank you . nicole : for ? daniel : i know you talked to him about theresa and me . nicole : i did n't ... daniel : no , i know . nicole : tell him the truth . i did n't -- daniel : but whatever you said in my defense convinced him enough to go through this with me . nicole : wow . daniel : what ? nicole : he really did listen to me . but you do n't -- you do n't owe me a thank you . i just did the obvious , which was tell him he was an idiot for not trusting you . and he 's a real mess right now , and he 's lucky to have someone as smart as you as his doctor looking after him . daniel : [ laughs ] well , he 's also lucky to have such a devoted , compassionate friend like you . all right , i 'll see you later . nicole : okay . brady : what the hell ? oh ! dammit ! no , no , no . no ! adrienne : oh , i just saw your mom and kate . will : oh , you did ? adrienne : they were going to see your daughter . and i wanted to tag along , but i could tell they wanted their own time , so . will : okay , well , you can see ari whenever you want . adrienne : thank you . i think i cleared the air a little with your mom . will : oh , about sonny and me ? adrienne : yes . i was so very worried about you two . you guys are so happy together . and if sonny 's happy , i 'm happy . will : thank you . i appreciate that .

will : well , you know my mom . i mean , once she gets something in her head . sonny : [ laughing ] will : so what i need you to do , my love , is find out exactly what 's going on . warn me about the level of humiliation i can expect . then i will be able to get a strategy going . sonny : you really need to stop worrying about this . will : well , that 's easy for you to say . you 're gon na be one of the drunk partygoers laughing at my expense . you know , if you really love me ... sonny : mm - hmm . will : you would find a way to talk her out of it completely . sonny : actually ... i have a plan . will : okay , i like it . what is it ? gabi : oh , hi ! i did n't think you guys would still be home . will : i 'm actually on my way out . so ... i will ... see you later . gab do n't you have to go to work ? sonny : yeah , i 'll be leaving ... soon . and you 'll have the whole place to yourself . jj : i was just talking to someone from school . abigail : hmm . a bitch ? jj : i lost my temper . abigail : was it that girl bev ? that one who 's always drooling all over you ? is she still harassing you for not hanging out with her and rory any more ? jj : you know , i 've got ta get going . abigail : okay , well , do n't be home too late , because mom and i are gon na finish up all the christmas decorations , and we will need your help . jj : okay , yeah . i do n't wan na miss that . you know how much i like to cheese up the house for the holidays . abigail : uh , jj . jj : yeah ? abigail : i was talking to mom last night . uh ... jj : okay . abigail : i know i 've said this to you before , but i do n't know if you really get how happy she is to have you home , and that things are going so well for you . she 's really , really proud of you . and so am i . nicole : so this is n't the first time you walked away from a marriage with kristen dimera . brady : no . nicole : okay , uh , the first time you walked away was back in may ? brady : may . yeah , may . right . i 've always had lousy judgment with women . present company excluded , of course . nicole : [ laughs ] [ sighs ] okay , um , let 's talk a little bit about the pre - cana sessions you had before the wedding . brady : pre - cana , yeah . shoot . what ? nicole : well , i mean , did father eric seem uncomfortable with kristen ? anything to suggest that maybe something had happened between them ? brady : no . never . never . nicole : so you believe eric when he says he was drugged , and that the sex with kristen was non - consensual ? brady : i do . i 'd like to believe ... without reservation ... about what he 's saying . but , you know , he admits that he has no recollection of what happened that night . he forgot about the whole thing , and he ca n't prove anything about what he 's talking about . so i guess the only person that really knows what went on in that room is the bitch ... kristen . daniel : now back when you were sick , after your time at the capital , i found some irregularities in your blood levels . eric : i remember . daniel : the toxicologist studied the screen for days , could never pinpoint a cause . but now that we know you were drugged -- and like i told you before , she must 've used a masking agent . there is a new test . we can do a procedure that deteriorates the masking agent and reveals the original poison in your bloodstream . eric : wait , you think it 's still in my bloodstream ? daniel : i do n't know , there could be trace amounts . but if i can cut through that masking agent , we can i.d . them . eric : we can do that today ? daniel : oh , yeah . i 'm all set up . but got ta tell you ... you are gon na be hooked up to an iv for hours , lying in a bed . now it 's not dangerous , but because of the temperature differences between your body and the drug , i got ta warn you ... there will be pain . and it could be acute pain . eric : yeah , well , i 'm fine with that . no physical pain can match the emotional hell i 'm going through . whoa ! sweet mother of softness . maggie , this must be so hard for you . have you spoken to victor at all ? maggie : oh , ha , only when it 's absolutely necessary . abigail : right . maggie : it 's just so ... sad to me , and so hurtful to know that he 's reverted back to the man that he was . abigail : god , i ca n't even imagine how heartbreaking this must be for you . maggie : i 'm gon na be all right . i have lots to be thankful for . abigail : yeah . maggie : and most of all , my family . abigail : [ laughs ] kind of a bummer . you know , you , mom , and i are all gon na be flying solo for the holidays this year . and then there 's new year 's . maggie : oh , well . we 'll be together , right ? abigail : yeah . maggie : jj 's back home , that 's a relief and a blessing . abigail : yeah . maggie : and he 's gon na have three dates for new year 's . abigail : [ laughs ] maggie : [ laughs ] abigail : i do n't know , i just ... hope that it 's all as good as it seems to be ... with jj . you know , i mean , um ... i just never want it to go back to the way that it was . maggie : so are you afraid that it might ? abigail : i was n't . i was actually feeling really optimistic , but ... [ sighs ] aunt maggie , i walked in on something that really has me worried . jj : can you just tell me what you want so we can get this over with ? theresa : you know what i want . i told you . a little something to help me relax . jj : you have a lot more connections than i ever did . ca n't you just do it yourself ? theresa : are n't you a little young for memory loss ? why would i go out in the cold and dark and deal with dirtbag losers when i have you ? and remember , you 're paying . jj : but i do n't have anymore money . i do n't have enough . theresa : seriously ? jj : i do n't . theresa : fine . i 'll spot you this one time , but you need to figure it out . [ sighs ] what the hell are you doing ? jj : oh , i 'm deleting the video , so now you do n't have anything on me . ah ... it 's over . nicole : here 's the thing , though , brady . did n't eric seem totally surprised when the sex tape aired at the wedding ? brady : yeah , yeah . kristen was . i mean , everybody was . the whole damn church was . nicole : what happened after it played ? brady : pandemonium , craziness . everyone freaking out , everybody accusing each other of this and that . nicole : you must 've been devastated . brady : sure . i mean , it 's not every day you get to punch your brother priest in the face for sleeping with your fiancée . it sounds funny when i say it . what are you doing , are we done ? nicole : no . no , we 're not done , brady . what is going on with you ? why are you acting this way ? tad : have you seen gabi this morning ? will : mm ... yeah , for a minute , why ? tad : uh , i do n't know . i saw her last night , she seemed kind of upset , so . will : really ? tad : yeah . will : not to me . did she say what it was about ? tad : no , she did n't wan na get into it . will : it 's probably about nick . tad : man , i hope not . that guy was a creep . he did n't deserve her . what ? will : do you have a crush on gabi ? gabi : [ sighs ] [ knocking on door ] gabi : uh , i 'll get it , sonny . sami : is sonny here ? kate : and will ? gabi : yes . no . sonny : hey ! sami : [ laughing ] hello ! gabi : they came to see the baby , so ... sonny : well , you should run in there right now . she 's about to fall asleep . she is making the cutest sounds . she 's trying so hard to talk . sami : it all happens so quickly . sonny : mm - hmm . and i 'm expecting to discuss international politics with her any day now . sami : [ laughing ] gabi : okay , so i 'll just -- i 'll go take 'em in since you 're heading out , right ? sami : okay . sonny : yeah , yeah , yeah . gabi : okay . sami : all right , bye ! sonny : it was great to see you , ladies . gabi : bye , sonny . sonny : see ya ! gabi : he 's gone . sami : [ sighs ] kate : okay . now ... we can all talk privately . abigail : i walked in on jj and he was hanging up the phone with someone . he seemed like he was really angry at her . maggie : her ? abigail : yeah , yeah , it had to have been a her because of what he called her . he called her a bi -- not a very nice word is what he called her . maggie : right . abigail : ugh , i just -- i wonder if maybe it 's one of his not - so - nice friends maybe giving him a hard time for not hanging out with them any more . maggie : well , he 's just gon na have to find some other better friends . abigail : and i do n't mean to be complaining about having him here , it 's been so great . it 's just that he 's here a lot . you know ? and ... i do n't know , aunt maggie . i just worry that maybe he 's not being very social at school . maggie : well , this is his first year at salem high after boarding school . now that ca n't be easy . abigail : no , i know . maggie : and ... you had trouble - making friends when you first got back too , as i recall . abigail : huh . maggie : uh - huh . and it took time . time . abigail : hmm . it did , it took time . and i had great gram giving me advice . maggie : yeah . she was an expert at that . she always knew exactly what to say to cheer someone up and to give them hope . it 's hard . it 's hard not to have them here . but she and great grandpa tom are still looking out for us . ca n't you feel them in this room ? abigail : [ sighs ] maggie : and do n't you ever forget that . theresa : oh , my god . how could i have been so stupid ? jj : that 's a good question . theresa : the thing is i 'm not , you are . do you seriously think that was the only copy of that video i had ? jj : you have copies ? theresa : my friend jade in l.a. has it in her cloud ... forever [ laughing ] i sent it over coffee . `` see attachment ? `` so do n't get cute again , or next time i 'll tell jade to shoot that thing right over to the judge . got it ? call me when you get my drugs . and do n't take your time . daniel : while the drug is being administered , you 'll probably experience some delirium , kinda like a high fever . but do n't worry about it . once you come out of it , you 'll be fine . there 's no after - effects . eric : let 's just get this over with . brady : what do you mean ? nicole : you 're going through a rough time . to end all rough times . wha -- what 's with the flip attitude ? you think you 're fooling anyone ? brady : [ sighs ] nicole : so ? brady : all right . you caught me , nic , okay ? i ca n't pretend that kristen 's lies have n't hurt me , because they have . my life 's a wreck . i 'm a wreck . but i 'm determined not to wallow in self - pity . you know , i do n't wan na look behind me , i wan na move forward . and sometimes that means you have to force yourself not to feel things that you should n't . in the program , we call that , uh ... `` acting as if . `` it gets you from one crisis moment to hopefully the next not so much of a crisis moment , okay ? it 's just what -- it 's just what happens . but i -- if i 'm acting a little too cheerful , or my disposition is a little too flip for you , well , i 'm sorry . that 's -- that 's the reason . i 'm just trying to do this in a healthy way . you think this is healthy , do n't you ? nicole : i do . i 'm really proud of you , brady . kristen does not have control over you anymore , and i 'm really relieved how you 're handling this . brady : good . that 's what i wanted to hear . any more questions ?

[ sniffles ] i 'm good . i 'm good . tad : will , man , gabi is my friend and i want her to be okay . that 's it . will : okay . i mean , obviously that 's it for me too , but ... now that -- you know , now that nick 's out of the picture for good , i think maybe gabi has some time and some space to meet , you know , a guy , like a new guy . you know , a funny guy . you know , kinda like you . tad : would you stop trying to hook me up with her ? gabi is my friend , that 's it . will : all right . let 's see . so what 's happening , sonny ? are you telling me you 're hiding in the closet ? i seriously love you .

is ... did something happen ? when you saw michelle , did you have feelings for her ? travis : [ sighs ] it was shocking seeing her just hanging out in chancellor park . yeah . yeah . there was a connection . victoria : [ sighs ] okay . okay , so you 're leaving . travis : no . victoria , no . are you telling me to go ? victoria : no , you had a connection . travis : at first , but then ... victoria : please just ... just tell me what happened . travis : i realized something . i realized she does n't mean anything to me anymore . victoria : okay , good . that 's good . did you tell her that ? travis : yeah , i did . i told her that . i told her if she wanted to get back together , i was n't interested because there 's you . there 's only you . you 're the one i love . and she 's leaving town , and i just want to put this whole thing behind us . can we do that ? faith : what mom did was mean . she was mean to to you , to my dad , and sage and everybody because she lied . dylan : mm - hmm . you know , um , in her own way , she was n't -- she was n't trying to hurt us . faith : but lies always hurt . dylan : yeah , sometimes . faith : i know sometimes i say things that are n't true , but i always feel bad right after . and i can never tell the same lie more than once , not ever . but mom did . how could she keep lying about christian ? dylan : uh , she was scared , she was desperate , she thought she was doing the right thing , and she kind of got confused on really what -- what that was . faith : okay . dylan : do you understand ? faith : do you ? dylan : but if you stay , you know , we both can try . faith : i love you , dylan . but i do n't like it here anymore . it 's sad here . all the time . and sometimes it can be loud . dylan : i - i know . i 'm sorry about that . it 's been loud lately . what if i promise that sharon and i wo n't argue anymore ? faith : then we 'd all still be sad . and -- dylan : and what ? faith : i do n't want to be mean , but i do n't want to be around her right now . dylan : you know your sister 's here and i 'm here . and i know mariah adores you , and you know that i love you so much . faith : i love you , too . but right now ... i need my dad . nick : i know what you 're thinking . you can go ahead and say it . chelsea : oh , so you 're a mind reader now . nick : i do n't need to be . but i know it 's the same thing i 'm feeling . you know , this birthday party , really this whole day , has been one giant reminder that life goes on . you know , it 's okay to -- to laugh , it 's okay to have fun , to share a beer with someone , even while we 're both still deeply missing people we love . chelsea : yeah . i guess it 's a good thing . nick : yeah . looking forward is good . feeling guilty is bad . chelsea : i ca n't help it . [ sighs ] okay , so then tell me , since you 're further along in this process than i am . tell me , oh , wise one , how do you -- how do you deal with the guilt ? nick : well , there are times when you ca n't get away from it . but then there are times like this , and i just think what would sage say . and i 'm sure it 's the same thing adam would say . they would want us to keep living , chelsea . they 'd want us to try and find happiness again . victoria : okay , it 's all right . i forgive you for not saying anything before . travis : you do ? victoria : you and i both know that we have a sore spot when it comes to your ex . and yeah , i know , you should have said something earlier , but i get why you did n't . travis : thanks . victoria : i think i should be thanking you . travis : no , that 's ridiculous . victoria : you have had to put up with a lot more when it comes to me and my ex . and after everything that billy and i have thrown at you , i mean , i should be able to handle this . i owe you that much , do n't i ? travis : i swear to you , i 'm never gon na let anybody get between us again , okay ? not michelle , not billy , not your dad . i 'm sorry . victoria : it 's okay . do you want to go upstairs ? travis : yeah . [ cell phone rings ] victoria : [ sighs ] hey , lily . how 's cane ? lily : about how you might expect . i mean , they basically had to duct - tape him to the hospital bed . but he promised that he would behave if i could handle some brash & sassy business for him . victoria : uh , well , you know , i 'm in the middle of something right now . is it really that urgent ? lily : urgent ? cane : [ slurring ] it 's urgent , baby . have to beat jabot . it 's urgent . tell them it 's urgent . lily : [ chuckles ] uh , let 's just say it might calm a certain person 's nerves if i could get on a conference call with you and billy . victoria : okay . hey , you know what ? i really have to take care of this . okay , uh , i 'll track billy down , and we 'll call you from the office . i have to go . travis : i heard . victoria : but when i get back , it 'll just be you and me , okay ? travis : yeah . victoria : all right . travis : okay . ashley : i 'm not giving travis a free pass . but you have to admit , i mean , he probably slept with michelle because he and victoria were going through a difficult time . billy : oh , give me a break . every guy 's said that . hell , i 've said that . ashley : well , he was n't expecting michelle , this woman that he cared a lot about at one time , to show up ready and eager to take advantage of the situation . billy : why are you defending him right now ? ashley : i 'm not defending him ! [ sighs ] up until now , he 's been really devoted to victoria , right ? maybe he deserves just one small chance , one more . what do you think ? and then maybe you can exercise a little restraint for the first time in your life ?

[ computer keys clacking ] victoria : what ? billy : `` what ? `` what travis told you , i mean , i expected you to be a little bit more upset than this . victoria : well , i was . i was probably a lot more upset and jealous than i seemed at the time , but i told myself i was n't gon na overreact . billy : you were n't gon na overreact ? victoria : yes , billy . why would i make a mountain out of a molehill ? it does n't do anybody any good . billy : a molehill ? victoria , is that really how you felt when you heard this ? victoria : [ sighs ] look , think about it , billy , okay ? why would i be upset that travis ' ex was back in town ? i mean , he has no feelings for her . the past is the past , right ? mariah : sharon , as hard as this is , we have to wait and see what dylan has to say . sharon : what if he brought her to nick 's ? mariah : even if he did , he probably is hoping that the two of them can get through to faith together or maybe he just wanted some air while they talked . sharon : yeah . i would give anything if that were true . the way that my life 's going lately ? dylan blew up at me earlier . now faith . just seems like things are getting worse . mariah : no , it 's not . you could be in jail . and as hard as this has been for dylan , he has fought for you . i mean , you sounded pretty relieved on the phone when they said they dropped the charges . sharon : yeah , i am . mariah : that never would have happened without dylan . he is the one who went and got nick . he 's part of the reason why nick is refusing to testify against you . sharon : you know , you 're right . things could be worse . i love you . thanks for once again being here when i needed you the most . mariah : of course . and truthfully , i owe you a `` thank you , `` too , for not ratting me out , not telling the cops that i knew about christian . sharon : i told you i would do everything i can to protect you . you 're my daughter . i 'm always gon na look out for you . mariah : i will never forget that you did that for me . sharon : i just hope that my other daughter realizes how much i love her . chelsea : i totally get why you 're mad at your mom . faith : you do ? chelsea : sure . i spent most of my adult life not even speaking to my mother . faith : really ? chelsea : mm - hmm . we used to fight constantly until this -- this thing happened a few years ago . faith : what thing ? chelsea : i became a mom . which is why i 'm -- i 'm kind of feeling sorry for your mom right now . faith : but she lied , chelsea , to everyone . chelsea : you 're right . but she did come clean at the end . it 's got to count for something . did she say she was sorry ? huh . did she tell you that she loves you ? do you believe her ? here 's the hard thing about being mad . you know , just because somebody does one big , colossal bad thing , it should n't wipe out all of the good things they 've done in their lives , you know ? sharon loves you , faith . she loves you so much , and there 's nothing truer than that . there 's nothing that you can count on more than that . she 's never gon na stop loving you and wanting what 's best for you . faith : i guess . but that does n't change what she did . nick : yeah . we 'll do it for faith . nothing permanent . dylan : okay , good . because that would devastate sharon . nick : well , frankly , right now i do n't care how sharon 's feeling . dylan : okay , nick , that , uh , that sounds like nikki talking . i know you do n't mean that . nick : no , that 's me talking , all right ? i 'm tired of going out of my way to make sure sharon does n't get upset or feels like she 's suffering . dylan : but you invited us to the party . nick : i did that for you , dylan , all right ? i wanted you there . i wanted you to feel welcome . dylan : yeah , i think it was pretty obvious that she was n't welcome . nick : and that 's it , is n't it ? dylan : what 's that ? nick : this is the way it 's worked for years . sharon does something terrible , then i get upset . but then i see how everyone treats her , so then i come right back to her defense , on her side again . that 's the pattern . sharon 's just waiting for me to come back on her side . dylan : she 's been in some bad situations . she 's made a lot of mistakes . nick : yeah , well , she should have told the truth . she should have come to me . she should have come to you . she had a million chances to do that , and she did n't . she withheld the identity of that child . she has reached a new low -- dylan : hey , she 's still my wife . nick : [ sighs ] yeah , i know . so what are you gon na tell sharon about faith ? dylan : i 'm just gon na tell her that , uh , being with her little brother , she 's gon na feel more secure and that faith came straight out and asked to be with you to get through these tough times . and as difficult as that is for sharon , she 's gon na have to accept it . it 's the truth . nick : well , good luck with that . dylan : yeah . yeah . uh , i need to get home . nick : well , we 've talked about what this is gon na do to sharon . but what 's it gon na do to you ?

michelle : if you did n't have feelings for me , you would n't be reacting this way . travis : the only thing i 'm feeling right now is an overwhelming desire to never see you again ! michelle : we just made love . travis : falling back in that bed with you is the biggest mistake of my damn life ! now , i 've already paid for this hotel room . and i 'm sure there 's a plane going back to new york this afternoon . have a nice life . make sure she gets back on that plane . billy : you 're sure about this ?

[ sighs ] nick : it 's a little scary , you know , thinking about being the mom and the dad for christian . i mean , kids need their moms . chelsea : what every kid needs is a parent who loves them , and no one loves their children more than you do . you and christian are gon na be just fine on your own . sharon : i know that you miss having your little brother right here where you can see him and you can play with him any time you want , but we 're all gon na make sure that you still have plenty of time with him , so you 're not gon na have to go live with your dad to do that . faith : but i want to live there . sharon : [ sighs ] faith , i 'm really sorry that things have been so difficult around here lately . and i can imagine how confused and upset you must be . but you know what ? we 're gon na get through it together , because that 's what families do . all we have to do is keep talking about things . faith : but i do n't want to talk ! i want to go live with dad and christian ! sharon : okay , um , you know , i 'm gon na give you and dylan a chance to talk about this together . dylan : hey , come on . come sit down . faith : are you mad at me ? dylan : nope . not even a little bit . but you did drop a pretty big bomb on your mom and me . can you help me understand what 's going on ? lily : you did n't tell me that the surgeon ordered iv antibiotics and stronger pain medication for you . cane : they must make some sort of antibiotic pill i can take every day or come back , get some shot . i do n't understand why it 's necessary i still have to be here in this bed . lily : maybe because your doctor knows what he 's doing and is putting your health first . cane : well , maybe he 's just being overly cautious . lily : so you 're gon na deny that you 're in pain ? cane : i can deal with the pain . do n't worry about the pain . lily : okay , what about your fever ? cane : i do n't have a fever . it 's the room . it 's warm . lily : or maybe it 's because you have a fever . cane : i 'm fine . lily : cane , if you get an infection , you 'll have to have another surgery , which means more time away from the kids , from me , and from work . is that what you want ? cane : [ sighs ] no , it is not what i want . lily : okay , then stop arguing . cane : it 's just -- i have so much work i have to do . lily : then okay . speed up your recovery by listening to the doctor and resting and recuperating . cane : where 's my phone ? can you pass me my phone , baby ? lily : no , cane . stop pushing yourself . cane : i need to call billy and victoria . i need my phone , all right ? will you give me my phone , please ? [ sighs ] lily : what -- what is this ? cane : it 's my notes . it 's -- it 's my counterstrategy to the jabotgo app . and i need to talk to them about it , all right ? lily : how about this ? give me this . give me this . cane : no , no , no . lily : give me the pad . cane : it 's all scribbles . it 's not gon na make any sense to you . lily : how about i call billy and victoria and i 'll talk to them about the notes ? cane : baby , you 're not gon na be able to read my notes . it 's all in scribbles . lily : hey , i have been married to you for a very long time . i think i can make sense of it . cane : baby , please . i need to call them . lily : you need to rest , okay ? relax . i will take care of the notes . cane : will you do it right away for me ? lily : yes , i promise . cane : because if you do n't do it , it 's gon na be serious , and i need to call them ... lily : [ sighs ] ashley : nobody 's killing anybody . billy : i need to fix this . ashley : you 're gon na stay out of it . the only reason why i told you was because i 'm tired of our family suffering because we keep secrets from each other . but i need you to hear me out before you say you 're gon na beat somebody up . billy : i am such an idiot . i believed his good - boy act . i pushed victoria to get back together with him . ashley : maybe they 're working it out right now , billy . how do we know ? even as we speak , it could be happening . billy : how 's that gon na happen if he keeps lying to her ? she needs to know the truth , ashley , and i 'm gon na tell -- ashley : she needs you to stay out . come on . she does n't need you to get all puffed up and interfere . billy : i ca n't stand here and do nothing ! ashley : especially after the hell you 've put that woman through ! victoria : are you talking about billy ? travis : we got into it at the party . he told me he knew michelle was here . victoria : okay . well , i really do n't care about that . travis : okay . so we 're good ? victoria : no , we 're not good ! we 're not good . travis : tell me what you need , victoria . victoria : i just need to know why you did n't bother telling me in the first place , why you had to get into it with my ex before i found out that you saw michelle . something else going on here ? is ... did something happen ? when you saw michelle , did you have feelings for her ? travis : [ sighs ] it was shocking seeing her just hanging out in chancellor park . yeah . yeah . there was a connection . victoria : [ sighs ] okay . okay , so you 're leaving . travis : no . victoria , no . are you telling me to go ? victoria : no , you had a connection . travis : at first , but then ... victoria : please just ... just tell me what happened . travis : i realized something . i realized she does n't mean anything to me anymore . victoria : okay , good . that 's good . did you tell her that ? travis : yeah , i did . i told her that . i told her if she wanted to get back together , i was n't interested because there 's you . there 's only you . you 're the one i love . and she 's leaving town , and i just want to put this whole thing behind us . can we do that ? faith : what mom did was mean . she was mean to to you , to my dad , and sage and everybody because she lied . dylan : mm - hmm . you know , um , in her own way , she was n't -- she was n't trying to hurt us . faith : but lies always hurt . dylan : yeah , sometimes . faith : i know sometimes i say things that are n't true , but i always feel bad right after . and i can never tell the same lie more than once , not ever . but mom did . how could she keep lying about christian ? dylan : uh , she was scared , she was desperate , she thought she was doing the right thing , and she kind of got confused on really what -- what that was . faith : okay . dylan : do you understand ? faith : do you ? dylan : but if you stay , you know , we both can try . faith : i love you , dylan . but i do n't like it here anymore . it 's sad here . all the time . and sometimes it can be loud . dylan : i - i know . i 'm sorry about that . it 's been loud lately . what if i promise that sharon and i wo n't argue anymore ? faith : then we 'd all still be sad . and -- dylan : and what ? faith : i do n't want to be mean , but i do n't want to be around her right now . dylan : you know your sister 's here and i 'm here . and i know mariah adores you , and you know that i love you so much . faith : i love you , too . but right now ... i need my dad . nick : i know what you 're thinking . you can go ahead and say it . chelsea : oh , so you 're a mind reader now . nick : i do n't need to be . but i know it 's the same thing i 'm feeling . you know , this birthday party , really this whole day , has been one giant reminder that life goes on . you know , it 's okay to -- to laugh , it 's okay to have fun , to share a beer with someone , even while we 're both still deeply missing people we love . chelsea : yeah . i guess it 's a good thing . nick : yeah . looking forward is good . feeling guilty is bad . chelsea : i ca n't help it . [ sighs ] okay , so then tell me , since you 're further along in this process than i am . tell me , oh , wise one , how do you -- how do you deal with the guilt ? nick : well , there are times when you ca n't get away from it . but then there are times like this , and i just think what would sage say . and i 'm sure it 's the same thing adam would say . they would want us to keep living , chelsea . they 'd want us to try and find happiness again . victoria : okay , it 's all right . i forgive you for not saying anything before . travis : you do ? victoria : you and i both know that we have a sore spot when it comes to your ex . and yeah , i know , you should have said something earlier , but i get why you did n't . travis : thanks . victoria : i think i should be thanking you . travis : no , that 's ridiculous . victoria : you have had to put up with a lot more when it comes to me and my ex . and after everything that billy and i have thrown at you , i mean , i should be able to handle this . i owe you that much , do n't i ? travis : i swear to you , i 'm never gon na let anybody get between us again , okay ? not michelle , not billy , not your dad . i 'm sorry . victoria : it 's okay . do you want to go upstairs ? travis : yeah . [ cell phone rings ] victoria : [ sighs ] hey , lily . how 's cane ? lily : about how you might expect . i mean , they basically had to duct - tape him to the hospital bed . but he promised that he would behave if i could handle some brash & sassy business for him . victoria : uh , well , you know , i 'm in the middle of something right now . is it really that urgent ? lily : urgent ? cane : [ slurring ] it 's urgent , baby . have to beat jabot . it 's urgent . tell them it 's urgent . lily : [ chuckles ] uh , let 's just say it might calm a certain person 's nerves if i could get on a conference call with you and billy . victoria : okay . hey , you know what ? i really have to take care of this . okay , uh , i 'll track billy down , and we 'll call you from the office . i have to go . travis : i heard . victoria : but when i get back , it 'll just be you and me , okay ? travis : yeah . victoria : all right . travis : okay . ashley : i 'm not giving travis a free pass . but you have to admit , i mean , he probably slept with michelle because he and victoria were going through a difficult time . billy : oh , give me a break . every guy 's said that . hell , i 've said that . ashley : well , he was n't expecting michelle , this woman that he cared a lot about at one time , to show up ready and eager to take advantage of the situation . billy : why are you defending him right now ? ashley : i 'm not defending him ! [ sighs ] up until now , he 's been really devoted to victoria , right ? maybe he deserves just one small chance , one more . what do you think ? and then maybe you can exercise a little restraint for the first time in your life ? [ cell phone chimes ] billy : perfect timing . that 's victoria . ashley : what does that mean ? where 's travis ? billy : i do n't know where travis is . she wants to meet at the office for a conference call . ashley : well , what are you gon na do ? billy : i do n't know . ashley : do n't make it worse , please ! do n't make it worse ! [ sighs ] victoria : how 's cane ? i thought he would be heading home right after his knee surgery . lily : yeah , there 's been some setbacks , but hopefully he 'll be on his feet soon . victoria : okay , well , let me know if there 's anything i can do . and billy just got here , so we can start . lily : hi , billy . billy : hey , lily . lily : hey . uh , so , from cane 's notes , he researched a lot of apps to counter jabotgo , but none of them are as good as what they have . victoria : yeah , i went down that same route , and my tech guys came away with the exact same impression . lily : yeah , he wrote here , um , `` if we ca n't take test `` -- wait , no , that ca n't be right . uh , `` if we ca n't take tech to a new level , find different avenue . `` billy : well , cane 's right about that . if you 're gon na move on from what you know into something new , better not make it a cheap , cheating copycat . lily : right , he wrote , `` be distinctive in opposite way . `` victoria : okay , so what 's the opposite of an app ? i 'm not sure what cane means by that . lily : well , i mean , the opposite of new is old , so maybe old - school ? billy : yeah , that 's good . keep going with that . lily : well , cane did write these notes with a paper and pen . i have n't seen his handwriting in a very long time . and he 's able to be on the page . he ca n't be in an e - mail . sorry , i just -- billy : no , you 're fine . you 're good . victoria : jabot is a fantastic app , but it 's still just an app . lily : right , it 's not the same as seeing the makeup on you in person . victoria : so , opposite . billy : yeah , something not an app , something more distinctive . victoria : yeah , an app can be fun , but , uh ... billy : you can move on from it . you use it a couple times and you move on . lily : right , while a free consultation is an experience . you know , you get to see and -- and feel and smell the product on , and you walk out feeling like a million dollars . billy : and that right there is what we need to emphasize . victoria : yeah , brash & sassy can give you what no app can . billy : this has legs . victoria : i think so . thank you for your input , lily . lily : yeah , i 'm glad i could help . billy : and tell cane when he wakes up that we 're on it . lily : okay . will do . billy : vick . victoria : yeah ? billy : can you just stop ? put your pen down for a second . there 's something i need to say . i heard something about travis . victoria : before you go there , i already know about michelle , okay ? travis told me everything . sharon : faith ? dylan ? [ door opens ] mariah : hey . i 'm so glad you 're home . the cops did n't -- sharon : no , i do n't have time to talk . mariah : what 's going on ? sharon : faith -- she wants to live with nick . i tried to talk her out of it , but she would n't listen , so i left her with dylan so that he could talk sense into her , but now they 're gone . i think he took her over to nick 's . i 've got to get her back . mariah : stop ! you can not freak out and -- and storm over there ! that 's not gon na solve anything . nick : what 's going on , faith ? did you forget something at the party ? faith : no . dylan : um , she , uh , she has something to say . faith : i want to live here all the time . dylan : we were surprised , too . but , uh , faith is pretty determined . nick : yeah , she is . sounds like we have some things to work out . chelsea : why do n't i take faith upstairs ? nick : thank you , chelsea . faith : please say yes . nick : let 's , uh , sit down . do you know where this is coming from ? dylan : she did n't mention it to you at all ? nick : no , she has n't . dylan : well , she got home from the party , and she basically dropped it on us . nick : she did n't say why ? dylan : she said it 's been building up since the truth came out , and she 's struggling with what sharon did . nick : [ sighs ] i mean , yeah . we all are . dylan : yeah . and she misses her little brother . nick : i find it hard to believe that sharon would sign off on this . dylan : she has n't yet . she 's not gon na like that i brought faith over here . nick : [ sighs ] i mean , you did n't just come by here to talk . you know if she asked me to live here , i 'm gon na let her . dylan : yeah . yeah , i knew that deep down . nick : what are you saying ? you think faith should live here , too ? ashley : did n't you hear anything i said ? you 're supposed to stay away from michelle . travis : i need to do this . ashley : [ sighs ] travis : stay . i want you to see this . michelle : i thought you 'd be back . travis : i had to see you one more time . billy : wow . you 're taking this really well . [ computer keys clacking ] victoria : what ? billy : `` what ? `` what travis told you , i mean , i expected you to be a little bit more upset than this . victoria : well , i was . i was probably a lot more upset and jealous than i seemed at the time , but i told myself i was n't gon na overreact . billy : you were n't gon na overreact ? victoria : yes , billy . why would i make a mountain out of a molehill ? it does n't do anybody any good . billy : a molehill ? victoria , is that really how you felt when you heard this ? victoria : [ sighs ] look , think about it , billy , okay ? why would i be upset that travis ' ex was back in town ? i mean , he has no feelings for her . the past is the past , right ? mariah : sharon , as hard as this is , we have to wait and see what dylan has to say . sharon : what if he brought her to nick 's ? mariah : even if he did , he probably is hoping that the two of them can get through to faith together or maybe he just wanted some air while they talked . sharon : yeah . i would give anything if that were true . the way that my life 's going lately ? dylan blew up at me earlier . now faith . just seems like things are getting worse . mariah : no , it 's not . you could be in jail . and as hard as this has been for dylan , he has fought for you . i mean , you sounded pretty relieved on the phone when they said they dropped the charges . sharon : yeah , i am . mariah : that never would have happened without dylan . he is the one who went and got nick . he 's part of the reason why nick is refusing to testify against you . sharon : you know , you 're right . things could be worse . i love you . thanks for once again being here when i needed you the most . mariah : of course . and truthfully , i owe you a `` thank you , `` too , for not ratting me out , not telling the cops that i knew about christian . sharon : i told you i would do everything i can to protect you . you 're my daughter . i 'm always gon na look out for you . mariah : i will never forget that you did that for me . sharon : i just hope that my other daughter realizes how much i love her . chelsea : i totally get why you 're mad at your mom . faith : you do ? chelsea : sure . i spent most of my adult life not even speaking to my mother . faith : really ? chelsea : mm - hmm . we used to fight constantly until this -- this thing happened a few years ago . faith : what thing ? chelsea : i became a mom . which is why i 'm -- i 'm kind of feeling sorry for your mom right now . faith : but she lied , chelsea , to everyone . chelsea : you 're right . but she did come clean at the end . it 's got to count for something . did she say she was sorry ? huh . did she tell you that she loves you ? do you believe her ? here 's the hard thing about being mad . you know , just because somebody does one big , colossal bad thing , it should n't wipe out all of the good things they 've done in their lives , you know ? sharon loves you , faith . she loves you so much , and there 's nothing truer than that . there 's nothing that you can count on more than that . she 's never gon na stop loving you and wanting what 's best for you . faith : i guess . but that does n't change what she did . nick : yeah . we 'll do it for faith . nothing permanent . dylan : okay , good . because that would devastate sharon . nick : well , frankly , right now i do n't care how sharon 's feeling . dylan : okay , nick , that , uh , that sounds like nikki talking . i know you do n't mean that . nick : no , that 's me talking , all right ? i 'm tired of going out of my way to make sure sharon does n't get upset or feels like she 's suffering . dylan : but you invited us to the party . nick : i did that for you , dylan , all right ? i wanted you there . i wanted you to feel welcome . dylan : yeah , i think it was pretty obvious that she was n't welcome . nick : and that 's it , is n't it ? dylan : what 's that ? nick : this is the way it 's worked for years . sharon does something terrible , then i get upset . but then i see how everyone treats her , so then i come right back to her defense , on her side again . that 's the pattern . sharon 's just waiting for me to come back on her side . dylan : she 's been in some bad situations . she 's made a lot of mistakes . nick : yeah , well , she should have told the truth . she should have come to me . she should have come to you . she had a million chances to do that , and she did n't . she withheld the identity of that child . she has reached a new low -- dylan : hey , she 's still my wife . nick : [ sighs ] yeah , i know . so what are you gon na tell sharon about faith ? dylan : i 'm just gon na tell her that , uh , being with her little brother , she 's gon na feel more secure and that faith came straight out and asked to be with you to get through these tough times . and as difficult as that is for sharon , she 's gon na have to accept it . it 's the truth . nick : well , good luck with that . dylan : yeah . yeah . uh , i need to get home . nick : well , we 've talked about what this is gon na do to sharon . but what 's it gon na do to you ? i know faith living here is gon na -- is gon na kill you , too , man . dylan : i 'm just trying to do the right thing . say good night to faith for me . i 'll talk to you in the morning . nick : yeah . dylan : [ sighs ] [ door closes ] travis : you need to pack up and go . michelle : do n't talk to me like that , travis . travis : pack up and go , please . michelle : there 's no rush . i 'm leaving town soon anyway . travis : no , no , no . i 'm not taking your word for that , michelle . michelle : you know you can trust me . travis : trust you ? you said you were gon na keep what happened between us between us , and then you ran right out and you told ashley ? if this is some kind of damn game to you , i am telling you right now , the game is over . i want you gone now . michelle : you do n't mean that . travis : what is it you 're not getting about this ? michelle : if you did n't have feelings for me , you would n't be reacting this way . travis : the only thing i 'm feeling right now is an overwhelming desire to never see you again ! michelle : we just made love . travis : falling back in that bed with you is the biggest mistake of my damn life ! now , i 've already paid for this hotel room . and i 'm sure there 's a plane going back to new york this afternoon . have a nice life . make sure she gets back on that plane . billy : you 're sure about this ? the whole `` past is the past `` thing with travis and michelle ? victoria : yeah , of course . i mean , come on , what 's the point in looking back ? and , billy , i would really appreciate it if you would just finally be okay with all of this . please . billy : okay with you and travis or -- victoria : yes , with me and travis . yes . we 're finally in a really good place . and i 'm happy . and not just because i 'm in love . everything 's starting to fall into place , and it feels good . i mean , i have a job that energizes me and excites me , and the kids are doing great , and our relationship is -- i mean , it 's working . i actually do n't mind hanging out with you sometimes . billy : we should probably record that , because you have n't said that to me in a really long time .

( sighs ) that 's how out of it i was . when i got there , i bottomed out . thank god taylor was there . she must have known how desperate i was feeling . brooke : how could she not know ? you were on the verge of a breakdown , and she is a psychiatrist . ridge : and she took care of me . i did n't ask her to . i did n't even want her to . but she knew what i needed , logan -- to feel some semblance , some small semblance of peace in my life , and i found that with her . then the cabin ... ( sighs ) i do n't know why , but somehow i started to see that i 'd be okay and that i could feel joy again . i desperately needed to do that . brooke : ( sighs ) so you 're telling me that taylor gave you that joy , something that i could n't give you . ridge : i guess so . i do n't know . something gave me joy up there at the cabin . in that moment of clarity , i realized that things ca n't go on this way , with rick doing his dance , always circling back to steffy , knowing what it does to me . brooke : ridge , this is n't about you anymore . rick is doing his best to become a better person . and do n't forget , he did n't press charges against thomas . and now they 're working together at forrester creations . i just wish you could forgive my son the way he forgave thomas . ridge : well , i 'm not sure that he has forgiven thomas . i think it 's all part of some sick plan of his . no , brooke , i ca n't forgive him . the very thought of him drives me up the wall and sends me spinning . i will not go back to that . last night , i felt so good . today , when i come here , ev - everything , you know , star -- walls start closing in on me again . brooke : ridge , please . this does n't make any sense . ridge : no , maybe it does n't . maybe it 's totally illogical on my part , but that happens when you lose a child . your world changes . you need support from your wife . but i 'm not getting that . i have n't gotten that since phoebe died . you 're all about rick . you have n't lost a daughter . he has n't lost a daughter . he has n't lost anything . brooke : yes , he has . he loved phoebe . ridge : and now he loves steffy ? no . no , no , brooke . i need you to take a stand against that relationship . i need you to take a stand alongside me and fight it , or i 'll lose another daughter to that kid , and i 'm not gon na let that happen . brooke : rick is not the epitome of evil . he is my son . he is a part of me . i ca n't change that . ridge : no . no , you ca n't , can you ? that 's why i 'm moving out .

[ scene_break ] brooke : i can feel the pressure you 're under . let 's just take a step backwards and look at this logically . ridge : logic is n't really my strong suit right now . brooke : let 's agree on one thing -- how much we love each other . ridge : brooke , that goes without saying . brooke : well , we have to say it , and we have to feel it . ridge , our love is strong , stronger than any of these problems that we 've had to face . we 're going to get through this . ridge : we 've been trying to do that for months , logan . brooke : okay , so we 'll keep on trying till we find an answer . you know how hard we had to fight stephanie until she finally got the message . no one goes up against us and wins . ridge : well , i 'm afraid someone has -- your son . brooke : no , ridge . he 's given up . he 's not fighting you anymore . ridge : he 's using steffy against me . brooke : that is your hatred talking . that 's not the truth . and that 's what 's going to destroy you , not my son . you 're gon na carry that hatred with you , and it 's gon na eat you up , whether we 're together or not . please , let me just take your hand ... ( sighs ) and lead you to the other side . you 're going to find laughter and love in life -- i promise you that -- just like you felt up at big bear last night . but do n't leave me . do n't take your anger and walk out that door . we 're not going to end it this way . brooke : i 'm not gon na let you go . we 're going to stay together .Summarize.[/INST]ridge walks in and brooke declares that she is glad he is home . they hug ; he says he was at big bear and it was just what he needed . he was n't alone either ; he was with taylor . she 's suspicious . he says it is n't what it might seem . they slept in separate beds . they lost a child and were sharing that grief . it is brooke 's son who caused that grief and brooke allows him to come and go in their home and he can not live with that . he wants brooke to support him , but time after time she can not . last night he finally realized that . he did n't want taylor to have to take care of him , but with her he found that peace . he realizes now he can feel joy again and he needs that . brooke is n't happy that taylor can do the one thing that she ca n't . ridge says he realizes she can not take a stand against her own son , so that is the reason he is moving out . at lunch , taylor confides to stephanie that ridge now has such peace in his eyes . he is leaving brooke . owen calls bridget at home and tells her that nick is after him . he 's driving him crazy . he 'd like bridget to talk to nick on his behalf . when nick returns from his shower , bridget is in bed wearing a black teddy and holding a big bowl of strawberries and whipped cream . he tells her to hold that pose and he jumps in bed . later when he is exhausted , she suggests he cut owen a little more slack . jackie kisses owen and wants to lock the door and get even friendlier . owen advises against that in case nick comes in .</s> | 431 |

with medication ? michael : yeah . yeah . phyllis was over . she went on a couple of walks . very short walks . paul : yeah , but she 's getting better , right ? michael : you know , when i tell you that i -- i 'm not sure i trust myself ... everything i do depends on not making mistakes . and i answered my phone in front of sheila . i grabbed her through the bars . michael : my head is full of devon 's case and every other case until it feels like it 's gon na explode , when i know i should be focused on lauren . but , no , paul , she 's not getting better because i 'm not there enough to help her get better . paul : go home . go be with your wife . michael : you know what i really think of ? you know what terrifies me ? what if lauren finds out sheila 's alive ? that she 's here ? they do n't make medications for that kind of panic . lily : look , i -- i ca n't do this . colleen : yes , you can , lily . who cares what they think ?

jana : sure . i 'm off like a dirty shirt . colleen : all right . thank you . well , if carmen really was driving her car that night ... lily : then she left the parking garage . colleen : yeah , which means that your mom having a ticket to a lot does n't mean anything . lily : yeah , except that she parked her car . colleen : which means somebody else is the murderer . lily : who moved the body to the alley behind indigo . colleen : to pin it on your mom . lily : i mean , who would something like that ? colleen : some ... crazy guy who 's tried to murder before . lily : kevin ? colleen : the only reason why i 'm here right now , lily , is because he failed . lily : looks good . jana : here you go , ladies . lily : oh . thank you . colleen : thank you . jana : mm - hmm . you know , i keep thinking about my regulars , too . if carmen was murdered around here , any one of them could have done it -- university students , faculty . colleen : your boyfriend . jana : how much do you know about your professor korbel 's past ?

lily : true . colleen : and what is with all of these questions about professor korbel ? lily : do you still call him that , even after , you know -- colleen : lily . shh . colleen : look , he asked me to call him adrian in private . i did . but private is over . lily : well , it ca n't be that private if you just told me . colleen : i tell you everything . you do n't count . lily : listen , um ... before , about , you know , my mom ? you were very honest . colleen : lily , i 'm sorry . i really did n't mean to upset you . lily : no , no , no . you did n't -- you did n't upset me . it 's just , um , it 's just time for me to be honest with you . i mean , you are with jt you know , you guys are living together . but it 's obvious that you still have a thing for korbel . colleen : i know . i keep saying that i should just turn around and be honest with jt lily : well , at least just be honest to yourself . colleen : i just have to get over it . professor korbel did . he has -- he has a girlfriend . amber : much cuter than your picture . cane : wow . normally , blind dates are a step below a root canal . but in this case ... amber : more like the happy gas ?

maybe he used those to cut up my clothes . man : yes , ma'am , i checked everything . dru : yeah ? man : i 'm done here . dru : oh . man : detective sullivan will be in touch to get prints from the family members , to eliminate them . dru : right . well , you can tell her to check the top of her desk , 'cause god knows she has all of our prints . i 'll show you out . here you go . bye . dru : phone . sharon : wait , wait , wait . dru : what ? what ? sharon : do n't ... do n't answer it . dru : why ? sharon : it 's an unidentified caller again . dru : well -- sharon : do not answer it . that 's what he wants you to do . this is his sick little game . if you stop answering it , he 'll stop calling you . dru : yeah . hello ? hello ! answer me ! you punk ! punk ! sharon : that was effective . dru : you know what ? i 'm gon na star-69 dave chow 's butt . colleen : great . lily : who is that guy ? colleen : who knows ? i honestly do n't understand what professor korbel could possibly see in her . lily : maybe it 's just a hook - up . colleen : he 's so much better than that , though . lily : colleen , you do n't even know him . colleen : that night ... lily : yeah ? colleen : he compared me to a statue in the louvre . he told me that i was stunning and beautiful . and , lily , when he touched me ... he really meant it . lily : maybe that 's his thing , you know ? the way that he seduces girls . and now he 's making amber feel beautiful , too . colleen : do you really think that ? lily : i do n't know . i ... colleen : ( sighs lily : i do n't know what i think anymore about anything -- my mom or ... colleen : i keep thinking about that fellowship in italy . was that his way of breaking up with me ? lily : he ca n't break up with you . he 's not with you . and he drew the most amazing sketch of me . i mean , you do n't draw somebody that does n't mean anything to you , do you ? i know i sound like an idiot . i really -- lily : whoa , whoa , whoa . wait , korbel drew you ? colleen : yeah , and then accidentally - on - purpose made sure i saw it . lily : okay , well , everything that he told you about why he could n't be with you -- you know , that he 's a teacher , you 're a student ... colleen : yeah . lily : that 's still true . but ... he drew you ? i mean , that 's -- that 's really romantic . korbel : ahem . amber : hi , adrian . um , this is my friend cane . cane , adrian . korbel : nice to meet you . cane : you , too . amber : adrian is an art history professor . he 's brilliant . korbel : thank you for the vote of confidence . amber : mm - hmm . korbel : my keys ? amber : oh . kevin : this is gon na be fun . hey , professor korbel ! how 's it going ? paul : wow . you look nice . sullivan : oh . well , thank you . paul : did n't recognize you . sullivan : you look -- paul : just kidding . sullivan : you look the same . paul : yeah . i do , do n't i ? sullivan : mm - hmm . paul : um ... busy day . paul : i 'm gon na go get something . sullivan : no , no , no -- a tall latté with extra cream and , uh , yeah , i remembered from the last time that we had coffee . o very observant . sullivan : yes , i am . that 's a ... lovely shade of eggplant you 're turning there . paul : thank you . sullivan : so what really happened ? paul : you know , i have a confession to make ... i did n't really run into a door . sullivan : really ? paul : i went four rounds with evander holyfield . sullivan : four ? how come i do n't believe that , either ? lauren : how long ? phyllis : yeah , like the -- hey ! lauren : hey ! michael : hey ! phyllis : it 's a d , it 's a plane ... michael : there 's my beautiful bride . phyllis : it 's diaper man ! lauren : yay ! just in time , because i am on my way ! out . michael : oh . ugh , i did an unreal -- lauren : what ? michael : i , uh , must have left them on the checkout stand . phyllis : oh , my . lauren : you 're kidding . michael : you know , i 'll go back . i 'm so sorry . phyllis : i guess they do need an i.d . this is what happens when michael 's saving the world . lauren : no , honey , do n't go yet . fen 's asleep . just relax . okay ? phyllis : oh ! relax . okay , that 's my cue . okay , that 's my cue . phyllis : i have to go . nick i - is nuking some food ... lauren : mmm , excellent . phyllis : i 'm starving , so ... lauren : good . phyllis : what ? are you okay ? michael : yeah . i 'm sorry . yeah , sure . i 'm great . sorry . phyllis : hey , uh ... i 'll call you tomorrow . lauren : yeah . yeah , yeah , yeah . and listen , thank you so much for everything . phyllis : oh , no problem . lauren : hope dinner 's good . lauren : tough day ? michael : oh , you know ... lauren : you hungry ? michael : maybe in a little while . lauren : so how many crazies did you have to deal with today ? michael : just one . lauren : drucilla ? michael : no , someone else . nothing i could n't handle . lauren : you seem tired . are you ? michael : sometimes the weight of the world rests heavy . lauren : well , you tell the world what i already know ... you 're a good man , michael baldwin . sharon : david , do n't you have anything better to do than to stand around the hall of my friend 's apartment building ? dru : you gon na be here when my husband gets back home . dru : oh , no ? you 're standing there , i 'm standing here . what would you call it ? david : all right . you know something ? i know you 're not gon na believe this , but it 's not personal . i just want justice done . now if they end up convicting your son devon -- dru : oh , do n't . you leave him out of this . david : if they end up convicting him when i know he did n't do it , it would be a grave injustice -- not only to him , but also to carmen 's memory . dru : listen to me . i know that you broke into my apartment . i do n't know how , but you cut up my stuff , you 're breathing into my phone . sharon : and , you know , just because you blocked your number from caller id or star-69 , it does n't mean we ca n't have your number traced . dru : that 's right . so if you come near me or my friend or any member of my family , you 're gon na wish you had n't . david : well , that could prove to be a problem , because i took the sublet . we 're neighbors . i 'll invite you over for coffee real soon . colleen : what 's he doing now ? lily : um , not paying attention to amber . so i think that answers your burning question . colleen : you know , um , how jana asked why professor korbel left his last school ? lily : yeah ? colleen : i know . lily : how ? colleen : he told me . jana : the internet is a wonderful , wonderful thing . guess who left his last job after one of his students was found dead ? colleen : she was sleeping with another professor , and professor korbel reported it . amber : adrian has been a key player in the art department for a long time now . cane : oh , tenured , eh ? that 's a good deal . korbel : uh , actually , this is only my third semester at gcu . jana : and it gets even better . for $ 5 gazillion in world peace , guess who the police found with the body ? kevin : well , well , well . jana : yep . colleen : it was a suicide . jana : it 's been called a suicide . kevin : maybe it was . jana : or maybe a very clever person -- like a certain college professor -- made it look like a suicide . then he took a position at a different university , where he met a certain young lady . they met right here in the coffeehouse , perhaps . he took a fancy to her , she rebuffed him , and rejection enraged him . so he offed her , just like he offed his other student . only this time , instead of making it look like a suicide , he made it look like a murder committed by somebody else . do you see this ? kevin : mmm , you are so hot when you 're excited . jana : oh , i 'm telling you , kevin , i 've got a nose for this sort of thing , and i smell a serial killer . [ next_on ] sullivan : you did n't even know carmen . why would you hurt her ? kevin : exactly , and i can prove it . will : i 'm reopening the jabot product tampering case . gloria : that 's not quite what i expected to hear . neil : what the hell ? dru : yeah , carmen 's ex left me a message . | dru realizes that she could be in danger and she runs to the door . she bumps into sharon who was coming in . dru tries to drag her into the apartment to show her the damage but sharon thinks that they should n't go in . they call sullivan and she comes over to take a statement . dru is sure that this is all david but sullivan says that after the airing of the tape of dru terrorizing carmen , this could be anyone . she tells dru to go and stay with a friend . the phone rings but no one answers when dru picks it up . detective sullivan leaves the apartment . the phone rings again . dru answers , but no one responds again . sharon is getting the creeps suddenly and tells dru that they should get over to her house and out of this place . when they open the door to leave , david chow is there . both ladies back up frightened by his sudden appearance . david is careful to keep one hand behind his back while he talks to sharon and dru . dru is as over the top as ever . she immediately accuses david of being the one to break into her place and destroy her things . he denies all of it and says that he is only there now to see about getting an apartment . sharon and dru do n't believe that for a second . `` i know what you think ! `` dru shouts . sharon tries to drag dru back into the apartment but dru is hot to trot and ca n't be stopped . `` you think that i went up to carmen and hit her with the tire iron in the head ! `` david is quiet as she speaks . when she is finished , she tries to back up and close the door but david holds it and tells her that he knows that she is really upset right now . later , sharon and dru try to leave the apartment again but david is still there . they go into the hall now and dru tells him that he is to stay away from her . he says that she should n't take this personally . he is just there to seek justice for carmen . dru says that she does n't want him near her family ever again . he says that is going to be really difficult . `` i just took an apartment in the building , `` he shares . paul and michael are in the warehouse , hidden from sheila 's view . they are trying to figure out what to do with sheila . michael says that he can get kevin to find some kind of poison over the internet that they can use on her . paul says that whatever michael wants to do is fine with him . it is his call . they could hand sheila over to the fbi , but she always gets away . `` i know what you are thinking , `` sheila shouts to the men without being able to see them . `` if you kill me , how will you get rid of the body ? `` paul and michael look at each other . they had n't even thought of that . | <s>[INST] dru : oh , no ! aah ! sharon ! sharon : hey ! hey , hey , hey . it 's okay . it 's just me . dru : oh , my god , i came home , and my clothes were all cut up . they 're -- look ! look , look , look ! sharon : no . dru , do n't go in . okay , do n't n the apartment . dru : okay . all right . sharon : i 'm calling the police . do n't go back in there . amber : few scholars know that after michelangelo spent four years painting the sistine chapel -- which he finished in ... korbel : 1512 . amber : yeah . he took up edible body painting and spent the next four years using his girlfriend as his canvas . korbel : michelangelo amber : hmm . interesting . korbel : is this your subtle way of asking for a refill ? amber : well , i hate to drink alone . korbel : i got all these papers to grade . i 'm not gon na be great company . amber : well , everybody has to sleep sometime , and i hate to sleep alone , too . man : what 's the address ? hold up . can i bum a pen and paper ? amber : oh , yeah , yeah . sure . uh - huh . man : okay . what was it ? yeah . uh - huh . jana : wow . that 's an amazing likeness , is n't it ? hmm . lily : i swear , i ca n't even go to class . everyone is talking about it . `` oh , did you see that thing on tv ? her mom attacked , the lady who was murdered . `` colleen : sweetie , it did look pretty bad . lily : okay , i swear if one more person asks if my mom or brother killed carmen , i 'm gon na be the one charged with murder . sheila : hey , fellas ! i 'm still here ! paul : we ca n't kill her , michael . michael : i was actually thinking of various ways that we ... could n't kill her . not a gun . paul : no , no , i would n't -- that would be way too messy . michael : same thing with a knife . poisoning ? i could get kevin to cook up a special order . to go ... literally . sheila : i can see inside your heads ! what are you going to do with my body after you 've killed me ? michael : she 's right . paul : she ca n't stay here . michael : remember who she is . she 's a person so twisted she got plastic surgery to look like my best friend . and why she 's here ... to insert herself into my life , to kill my wife , to take my son . michael : you know the man i used to be -- you more than anyone . i worked so hard to change , and i do n't want to be that person again . but , paul , i want her gone . i want sheila gone for good phyllis : all right . good job . two walks in a day . lauren : yeah . fen really enjoyed the fresh air . did n't you , sweetie ? here you go . phyllis : we should take a victory lap , huh ? lauren : yeah . phyllis : why do n't you call michael and tell him what you did ? lauren : yeah ? phyllis : yeah , absolutely . lauren : okay . michael : michael baldwin . sheila : help me ! people , someone , help me ! lauren : michael ? sheila : help me ! ok , that 's some flat hair . michael : hey ! sweetie . i 'm so sorry . i lost the signal . so what 's up ? lauren : where are you ? who was calling for help ? michael : oh . i 'm at the grocery store . i 'm shopping for diapers , and -- and this woman thought someone had stolen her purse , and it turned out it was just under her own groceries . lauren ? lauren : i 'm sorry . i ... was just thinking about how long it 's been since i went shopping . michael : how are you feeling ? lauren : actually , big news . um i went for two walks today with phyllis . michael : oh , that 's great ! sheila : i need to plan better . paul : what are you talking about ? sheila : by the way michael , i 'm sure that was lauren on the phone . i should 've said , `` hi , lauren . i ca n't wait to meet the baby . `` amber : you 're really good . korbel : if you had to proctor an intro to art history exam , you 'd doodle , too . jana : professor mccreepy did a sketch of colleen . kevin : seriously ? jana : yes . you know , i was talking with the very strange professor earlier about art and madness , how closely they 're related . kevin : mm - hmm . jana : he 's an odd duck , that one . dru : oh . sullivan : ladies . you reported a break - in ? dru : yeah , i went into my place , and all my stuff was shredded -- everything . sullivan : okay . déjà vu . please wait till i clear the area . colleen : how did this david guy get the tape , anyway ? lily : i have no clue . i do n't think he 'll stop until my mom is found guilty of something she did n't even do . colleen : guilty ? she 's not even on trial . lily : here . let 's sit down . colleen : okay . lily : look , um ... devon told me something . but you have to promise not to breath a word . colleen : of course not . lily : he found a parking lot ticket from the newman garage , that was punched around the time that carmen was murdered . colleen : oh . that looks really lily : yeah , then devon tore it up . colleen : what ? ! why ? lily : because he does n't want bardwell to suspect my mom . lily : you see ? i should n't have told you . colleen , lily , i wo n't tell anyone . lily : no , i know . what i 'm worried about is if i should . hour . lily : just forget i said anything , okay ? i 'm just stressed . colleen : you know , on tape , when your mom went after carmen like that , she must 've been really angry . lily : she was . i know i was . and if i had been in the break room , then it would 've been me whaling on carmen . colleen : no , lily , i really do n't think so . you just do n't have that kind of a temper . but your mom ? she does . sheila : was that your wife ? sheila : be sure to tell the little woman that i 'm available to take pictures of the two of you in bed , like i did with her and brad . paul : michael ! michael : what ? you do n't think i can ? paul : michael ! michael ! michael : i can snap you like a dry twig , and god himself will call it justice ! paul : michael , she wo n't get anywhere near lauren ! let go ! let go ! stop ! stop it ! sheila : she 'll find out about the other woman . we always do eventually . michael : it wo n't happen again . michael : maybe we should call the fbi . paul : you know , i almost called them a thousand times . you know what stopped me ? the minute you turn her over to them -- michael : she could get away . paul : you know , it -- it 's your wife she 's after . it 's your son ... which makes it your call . michael : i keep thinking about what could 've happened if you had n't caught her . lauren would be in there ... i could be killed ... and she 'd have fenmore . paul : are you sure you 're ready to trust the fbi ? michael : i do n't know if i 'm ready to trust myself . lauren : michael 's busy enough . and because of me , he has to go buy diapers . phyllis : well , they let men do that , you know , without even showing their i.d . lauren : the point is , i should be the one doing it . i run a business . i am a capable person ... phyllis : of course you are . lauren : who can not leave the house without hyperventilating . phyllis : come on , lauren ! stop it . listen , this is not your fault . lauren : look at him . phyllis : hey , um ... why do n't we take the kids to the park tomorrow ? amber : good . you 're done . you seem tense . you know , i took a course in massage -- korbel : mmm , that 's a lovely offer , but i have a department meeting with some faculty fossils who have n't relaxed since the stone age . amber : hmm . afterwards , then , hmm ? korbel : not tonight . amber : hmm . well , another time then . korbel : sure . i 'll , uh , i 'll call you later . man : hello ? amber : hi there . man : who 's this ? amber : do you always give your phone number to girls you meet online ? man : amber . i 'm glad you called me . did you -- did you like the photo i uploaded ? amber : do n't know . maybe it 's just a cute friend . i wo n't know for sure unless i see you in the flesh . man : well , what luck . if you 're really in genoa city , my , uh , my flesh may be geographically desirable . amber : and , say , available in ... 20 minutes i 'm at crimson lights . it 's the coffeehouse by campus . interested ? man : maybe . you did n't send me a pic . amber : live dangerously . man : well , how will i know who you are ? amber : i 'll recognize you . oh , and , um , by the way , you never told me your name . man : it 's cane . short for `` hurricane . `` amber : mmm . i like it . cool name . well , i will see you soon , cane . lily : look , just because a person has a bad temper sometimes , it 's not -- colleen : no , no , no , no . i have a bad temper sometimes , but your mom -- lily , i 'm not saying that she did it . lily : good . do n't . because she would never let one of us go to prison for her . colleen : what if ... your mom is just waiting to see devon 's trial goes ? she 'll be in the courtroom every single day , hearing all the of the evidence . and you 're right . you are . she would never let devon go down for her . if it looks bad , she can step up at the very last second . but if it looks like he 's gon na be acquitted , then she can just stay quiet and they both go free . sharon : yeah , i 'm here , dru . sullivan : okay , do n't touch anything . i 'm gon na send somebody by to dust for prints and check for forced entry . dru : that 's it ? sullivan : mrs. winters , there 's nobody here but us . whoever did this is gone . dru : okay , i know who did this , detective . his name is david chow . he came to newman enterprises today to harass me . sullivan : do you have any reason to believe that david chow knows where you live ? dru : it 's called `` let your fingers do the walking . `` a phone book ! sullivan : okay . honestly , mrs. winters , there 's so many people that saw that interview you did on the news that anyone could 've done this . sullivan : hey ! prints . dru : okay ? hello ? hello ? david chow ? dav -- he hung up . sullivan : okay , i would stay with your friend tonight until her husband gets home , and , um , lock the door behind me . dru : you -- you 're just gon na leave ? thank you . sharon : well , empathy is not her long suit . dru : no kidding ! does she actually think that i would cut up my own wardrobe ? dru : hello ? hello ! stop calling me , you bastard ! sharon : okay . dru , listen to me . let 's -- let 's just leave neil a note , okay ? dru : all right . sharon : get your things . we 're gon na go and stay at my place . dru : okay . sharon : all right ? dru : okay , that 's good . yeah . sharon : get your purse . all right . dru and sharon : aah ! sharon : oh , my gosh ! dru : come near us , you 're gon na be very sorry . david : excuse me ? sharon : you know , the police evidence people are on their way over here as we speak . dru : and your prints are all over my apartment . david : i 'm sorry , what are we talking about here ? did something happen ? dru : yeah , edward scissorhands , you cut up my wardrobe . sharon : how 'd you get into dru 's apartment , anyway ? dru : yeah ? david : what ? you live here ? dru : oh , like you do n't know it . david : no , i was simply responding to an ad for a sublet in this building . dru : oh , lord . sharon : right , and that ad led you to this hallway , to this very door at this very moment ? david : i 'd be happy to show you the ad , if you like . dru : no , no , no . spare us . we 're not stupid . david : look , mrs. winters , i just want an apartment , all right ? now i 'm sure you 'd understand that if someone you loved was brutally murdered , you 'd have an invested interest to make sure that justice was done . dru : okay . okay . i get this piece . but what does that have to do with you stalking me ? david : two conversations hardly constitutes stalking . dru : what about you breathing into my phone ? okay ? david : really ? and why would i do that ? dru : i do n't know that , but i know that you were downstairs just a little while ago . david : you know something ? i did n't do anything to you . dru : no , no , no , no . you want me to confess . okay , first of all , she takes away my job , then she tries to take my husband . sharon : okay , dru , that 's enough . dru : and is n't it -- no , it 's not enough , sharon ! she tries to take away my husband , and so i pick up a tire and hit her upside the head ! that 's the scenario in your mind . now that 's enough ! david : i can only imagine how upsetting it would be to come home and find that your place had been broken into and your clothes cut up ... how truly terrifying that might be . no wonder you 're upset . phyllis : hey , lauren . it 's gon na get better every day . you know that . soon , michael will have to stay with fen . lauren : i know . i know . phyllis : let 's make this our goal . i - i have a good idea . all right , this -- this will be our new goal -- fen will stay with michael , and summer will stay with her new boyfriend , and they 'll have burping contests or whatever . and we are going to the nvp retreat and get pampered -- massages , facials , the works . lauren : oh , that sounds so good . phyllis : i know . it does , does n't it ? lauren : yeah . phyllis : so it 's a date , when you 're ready . lauren : i can do this . phyllis : absolutely , you can do it . lauren : because logically , i know there 's nothing to be afraid of . michael : when 's the last time you saw lauren ? paul : i do n't know . a little after new year 's , i s. why ? michael : did she seem okay to you ? paul : yeah , she , uh , maybe was a little tired . but with the baby , that 's natural , right ? michael : today was the first time she left the house in weeks . paul : she does n't even know sheila 's alive . michael : not that . it 's a panic disorder . she 's being treated . paul : what do you mean ? with medication ? michael : yeah . yeah . phyllis was over . she went on a couple of walks . very short walks . paul : yeah , but she 's getting better , right ? michael : you know , when i tell you that i -- i 'm not sure i trust myself ... everything i do depends on not making mistakes . and i answered my phone in front of sheila . i grabbed her through the bars . michael : my head is full of devon 's case and every other case until it feels like it 's gon na explode , when i know i should be focused on lauren . but , no , paul , she 's not getting better because i 'm not there enough to help her get better . paul : go home . go be with your wife . michael : you know what i really think of ? you know what terrifies me ? what if lauren finds out sheila 's alive ? that she 's here ? they do n't make medications for that kind of panic . lily : look , i -- i ca n't do this . colleen : yes , you can , lily . who cares what they think ? come on . colleen : you know , maybe you should talk to your dad about this or something . lily : no , no , i promised devon i would n't say anything . colleen : i know you did , but maybe it 'll help . jana : good evening , ladies . the usual ? lily : yeah . colleen : uh , yeah . thank you . jana : you know , i saw that interview about your mum on the telly . lily : so ? jana : well , it 's a strange thing for that man to do , is n't it -- decide he knows better than the da ? lily 's family . jana : i - i know . it 's just such a dreadful thing not to cast a wider net . you know , especially when new evidence pops up . did you know that carmen 's car was seen near here the night she was murdered ? lily : well , did anyone see her ? jana : i - i do n't think so . colleen : she was just driving her car ? jana : i really do n't know . i 'd look into it if i was you . lily : yeah . colleen : thanks . um , sorry , could you go get the coffee ? jana : sure . i 'm off like a dirty shirt . colleen : all right . thank you . well , if carmen really was driving her car that night ... lily : then she left the parking garage . colleen : yeah , which means that your mom having a ticket to a lot does n't mean anything . lily : yeah , except that she parked her car . colleen : which means somebody else is the murderer . lily : who moved the body to the alley behind indigo . colleen : to pin it on your mom . lily : i mean , who would something like that ? colleen : some ... crazy guy who 's tried to murder before . lily : kevin ? colleen : the only reason why i 'm here right now , lily , is because he failed . lily : looks good . jana : here you go , ladies . lily : oh . thank you . colleen : thank you . jana : mm - hmm . you know , i keep thinking about my regulars , too . if carmen was murdered around here , any one of them could have done it -- university students , faculty . colleen : your boyfriend . jana : how much do you know about your professor korbel 's past ? colleen : you know , he 's not `` my `` anything . jana : oh , he 's your teacher , is n't he ? that 's all i meant . lily : well , why do you ask ? jana : just curious . where did he teach before , and why did he leave there ? colleen : well , if you 're so interested , why do n't you just ask him ? jana : you know what ? you 're absolutely right . yeah . lily : she 's so ... weird . colleen : she 's with kevin . need i say more ? lily : true . colleen : and what is with all of these questions about professor korbel ? lily : do you still call him that , even after , you know -- colleen : lily . shh . colleen : look , he asked me to call him adrian in private . i did . but private is over . lily : well , it ca n't be that private if you just told me . colleen : i tell you everything . you do n't count . lily : listen , um ... before , about , you know , my mom ? you were very honest . colleen : lily , i 'm sorry . i really did n't mean to upset you . lily : no , no , no . you did n't -- you did n't upset me . it 's just , um , it 's just time for me to be honest with you . i mean , you are with jt you know , you guys are living together . but it 's obvious that you still have a thing for korbel . colleen : i know . i keep saying that i should just turn around and be honest with jt lily : well , at least just be honest to yourself . colleen : i just have to get over it . professor korbel did . he has -- he has a girlfriend . amber : much cuter than your picture . cane : wow . normally , blind dates are a step below a root canal . but in this case ... amber : more like the happy gas ? cane : yeah . amber : why do n't you go get us some drinks ? green tea for me . korbel : good timing . i , uh , i perfected the art of sleeping with my eyes open . amber : well , do n't you sound frisky . hey , did you know that you left your keys at the coffeehouse ?

colleen : he told me . jana : the internet is a wonderful , wonderful thing . guess who left his last job after one of his students was found dead ? colleen : she was sleeping with another professor , and professor korbel reported it . amber : adrian has been a key player in the art department for a long time now . cane : oh , tenured , eh ? that 's a good deal . korbel : uh , actually , this is only my third semester at gcu . jana : and it gets even better . for $ 5 gazillion in world peace , guess who the police found with the body ? kevin : well , well , well . jana : yep . colleen : it was a suicide . jana : it 's been called a suicide . kevin : maybe it was . jana : or maybe a very clever person -- like a certain college professor -- made it look like a suicide . then he took a position at a different university , where he met a certain young lady . they met right here in the coffeehouse , perhaps . he took a fancy to her , she rebuffed him , and rejection enraged him . so he offed her , just like he offed his other student . only this time , instead of making it look like a suicide , he made it look like a murder committed by somebody else . do you see this ? kevin : mmm , you are so hot when you 're excited . jana : oh , i 'm telling you , kevin , i 've got a nose for this sort of thing , and i smell a serial killer .

[ chuckles ] i do n't know . i guess , lucky for matt , i 'm a bigger person , and , uh ... which is not to say that he does n't owe me . he does , big - time . and i intend to collect . i mean , he 's definitely doing the `` woman behind the man `` feature . the least he can do is put me back in kate 's good graces ... who got me a gift , by the way . spinelli : who ? kate ? maxie : yeah , a really awesome gift . spinelli : that is very nice . maxie : `` nice `` ? it 's an ares gainsbourg . spinelli : oh . maxie : i mean , it cost a small fortune . all i could do is look at the catalogs and try not to drool over it . but kate -- she just hands it over , which is really weird and -- and unexpected because she 's been really , well , exasperated with me lately . i do n't know . why would she just hand over an expensive , highly coveted bag ? spinelli : maybe 'cause it 's your birthday ? maxie : no , kate does n't do birthdays . spinelli : well , perhaps it 's best not to look the proverbial gift horse in the mouth . maxie : well , i guess whatever ulterior motive kate had , it 's lucky for me , 'cause i get to keep the bag . spinelli : precisely . maxie : no , okay , spinelli , the point is that i really want to spend the night with matt . spinelli : do you ever ponder fate ? maxie : um , i - i do n't ponder much . spinelli : [ chuckles ] well , it just seems to me that fate 's been a big part of our relationship , even as recent as party night . maxie : okay , you 've lost me . spinelli : well , i opted to take you on a midnight picnic rather than delivering you to the boat , and that turned out to be for the best because , well , i mean , let 's face it . lisa niles is not your biggest fan , so who knows what would 've happened had you run into her and her quiver of syringes .

[ diane laughs ] sonny : ... to , you know , talk about a subject that you know is dangerous , unless you 're fronting for somebody , somebody who wants to shove it in my face how happy brenda is . diane : okay , now i really have no idea what your fevered brain is cooking up . sonny : somebody who worked brenda so much against me , who 'd use his own daughter to get her sympathy , who tore her down to the point that she had to get on that damn plane ! diane : you think i 'm an emissary for jax ? sonny : well , you know what ? maybe jax needs me to know that he won . diane : have you gone completely insane ? ! sonny : no , i have n't . diane : jax is dead . you should know better than anyone else -- you killed him ! sonny : i did n't drive that plane . that was -- hey ! last thing i knew , they did n't find the body ! diane : bodies are never found when you kill people , sonny ! i just assumed that you have handled jax with your usual dispatch and that he is well and truly dead , unless , of course , you are now telling me something different . sonny : if jax is not dead , why are you flapping your mouth about brenda ? diane : because every contact i had with anyone in port charles while i was in europe has let me know that you are out of control . sonny : ah , pff ! diane : it is time to accept what happened with brenda and let it go , sonny . stop using her as an excuse to just lash out at every wrong ever done to you . i warned you a million times that marrying brenda was a mistake that could only lead to full - scale disaster . and if you would get your head out of your own scary angst for just one second , you would see that i was right . and you might find a way to be grateful that brenda and alec got out of your life with theirs intact , relatively undamaged . and you might also own up that you 're kind of glad that the boy 's gone . sonny : what is that supposed to mean , diane ? diane : it means that you distanced yourself from alec from day one . you never wanted him around . sonny : that 's not true . diane : which is fascinating , because biology has never been a prerequisite to being taken into your brood so far . sonny : you done ? kate : oh , hi . sonny : hey . diane : oh . kate : i 'm so sorry to interrupt . i just , uh -- i should 've called . i left my bag here earlier . excuse me . diane : and i have been eyeing it , green with envy , ever since i got here . hello . sonny : diane was just leaving , actually . diane : how have you been ? kate : i 'm great . how are you ? sonny : diane was just -- diane : i just got back from my first european international book tour . kate : is that right ? diane : [ chuckling ] yes . kate : when can we expect the next one ? diane : not for a long , long time . sonny : good , you can focus on your real job -- you know , the one that pays you whether you work or not ? diane : yes , about that . i , um -- i 've decided to branch out , explore new opportunities . i 'm taking my writing in a different direction -- journalism ... of a sort . sonny : that 's -- that 's unacceptable . diane : you do n't get a vote . sonny : if you 're a reporter , that 's conflict of interest . diane : actually , no , it 's not -- not in the way that you think , anyway . i 'm starting to write a gossip column .

[ scene_break ] maxie : do you think it 's strange , being able to do that ? spinelli : well , i - i suppose it was at first . it was like watching myself from outside of myself . maxie : like an out - of - body experience ? spinelli : yeah , exactly . maxie : i 've had those . spinelli : well , so you know how it feels . but ... but then ... then it passed , and it was just me spinning [ chuckles ] as it were . it became much more natural . i mean , except when someone would comment or , you know , otherwise draw attention , which might cause me to fumble . maxie : only you , spinelli , you know that ? i mean , you are seriously the only person in the world this would happen to . do you have any idea why ? spinelli : i guess sometimes it 's not our place to question , but ... i mean , it would seem that in losing my cyber skills , other talents that may have lain dormant for years just emerged . and now this globe of 75-centimeter circumference is as precious to me as my computer ever was . and if the , uh -- [ chuckles ] the psychiatrist blog is -- is correct , there may be other talents just waiting to emerge . maxie : i guess i 'm just jealous . i do n't know . you used to spend all your time ... thinking about me . spinelli : but you do not wish that to be so , right ? maxie : well , it 's not that i do n't wish it . it 's just -- [ sighs ] i do n't know . you know , a lot 's changed in our relationship since our non - marriage . take you , for example . you 're on your second identity by now . spinelli : and you 're with dr. hunter . maxie : yes . i - i think he 's a good match for me . spinelli : on whose criteria ? maxie : i do n't know . he just is . spinelli , you probably should n't be here , you know ? i 'm -- i 'm up here waiting for my boyfriend to spend my birthday with , and it just makes you look ... desperate . spinelli : no . determined . after all , i 'm just following your advice . maxie : i gave you advice ? spinelli : yeah , you astutely opined that if someone wants something , they should simply go after it . that 's what i intend to do .

[ diane laughs ] sonny : fresh off her first book . how was it ? diane : exhausting . i was shuttled about , subjected to endless parades of sycophants and hucksters and parasites . sonny : are you here to tell me that you 're done with it ? diane : are you kidding me ? i loved every second of it . no , i am here to tell you that i , um -- i ran into brenda when i was in italy , and we had quite the little chat about you . sonny : really ? diane : mm - hmm . sonny : i 'm not interested . diane : do n't speak too soon . she asked about you . you sure you do n't want to know what was said ? i was speaking at a symposium on women writing in the detective genre when , imagine my surprise , up walks alec and brenda . brenda had seen an announcement about the panel , and she came to congratulate me . naturally , my first response was one of suspicion , because brenda never had any use for me while she was here . but it quickly became clear that she really wanted to talk about you . sonny : well , it 's none of her business , 'cause , you know , she made her choice . diane : the funny thing was is that i did n't realize it was brenda at first . sonny : uh - huh , uh - huh . diane : and part of that was because it was context , you know . i mean , someone is not where they are supposed to be , so you do n't recognize them as being who they are . this is excellent scotch , by the way . sonny : are you just gon na keep talking , or are you gon na finish it at some point ? diane : the other part was that brendan was dressed completely differently -- colors , a nice dress with heels . she did n't look like a fugitive anymore . sonny : right . diane : of course , even when she was wearing those ridiculous shirts with the sleeves , you know , down to here , she managed to look spectacular , which is obscenely unfair to the rest of us . anyone else would have been arrested for crimes against fashion . and then there was the boy . children grow so quickly at that age . sonny : uh - huh . diane : alec is a real kid . he 's a little person who can carry on an intelligent conversation . of course , he 's very precocious . we know where he gets that from . sonny : i do n't care about what you 're talking about , diane , so why do you keep talking ? diane : so , the three of us went walking into the piazza di pietra , and brenda was telling me how she 's really cutting back on her work and her charity events so that she can devote more time to being a mother . and i must say , it agrees with her . she positively glows with love for her son . sonny : what do i -- what do i have to do , seriously , to stop you from rambling about something i do n't want to hear about ? diane : the real surprise about brenda , though , is , um ... how relaxed she is . sonny : yeah . diane : how at peace , how happy . she made the right decision , leaving you , sonny , and i 'm here to tell you with authority that brenda 's not pining away . sonny : that 's what you 've been wanting to do , right ? that 's the arrow you 've been wanting to sling at me . you feel better ? good . guzzle up my liquor , okay ? and get the hell out of here . diane : oh , sonny . i 'm just getting started .

[ chuckles ] i do n't know . i guess , lucky for matt , i 'm a bigger person , and , uh ... which is not to say that he does n't owe me . he does , big - time . and i intend to collect . i mean , he 's definitely doing the `` woman behind the man `` feature . the least he can do is put me back in kate 's good graces ... who got me a gift , by the way . spinelli : who ? kate ? maxie : yeah , a really awesome gift . spinelli : that is very nice . maxie : `` nice `` ? it 's an ares gainsbourg . spinelli : oh . maxie : i mean , it cost a small fortune . all i could do is look at the catalogs and try not to drool over it . but kate -- she just hands it over , which is really weird and -- and unexpected because she 's been really , well , exasperated with me lately . i do n't know . why would she just hand over an expensive , highly coveted bag ? spinelli : maybe 'cause it 's your birthday ? maxie : no , kate does n't do birthdays . spinelli : well , perhaps it 's best not to look the proverbial gift horse in the mouth . maxie : well , i guess whatever ulterior motive kate had , it 's lucky for me , 'cause i get to keep the bag . spinelli : precisely . maxie : no , okay , spinelli , the point is that i really want to spend the night with matt . spinelli : do you ever ponder fate ? maxie : um , i - i do n't ponder much . spinelli : [ chuckles ] well , it just seems to me that fate 's been a big part of our relationship , even as recent as party night . maxie : okay , you 've lost me . spinelli : well , i opted to take you on a midnight picnic rather than delivering you to the boat , and that turned out to be for the best because , well , i mean , let 's face it . lisa niles is not your biggest fan , so who knows what would 've happened had you run into her and her quiver of syringes .

[ olivia sighs ] steve : i think kristina wants dante there . olivia : okay . so , basically , what you 're saying is i should shut my mouth , suck it up , stop being an overbearing italian mother . it 's okay . no . no , no , no . and -- and -- who knows ? [ chuckles ] maybe sonny 's motives are completely pure , and maybe he 's just being inclusive for kristina 's sake , right ? steve : it 's probably not a good idea to let your guard down all the way . he 's a loose cannon . i mean , he 's not above manipulating the people who love him . maybe he 's trying to cover his butt -- the garage shooting or something he has planned that he has n't done yet . olivia : lord , you 're getting as cynical as me . steve : personal experience . people will go to great lengths to cover something up that they do n't want the wrong people looking into .

[ scene_break ] maxie : do you think it 's strange , being able to do that ? spinelli : well , i - i suppose it was at first . it was like watching myself from outside of myself . maxie : like an out - of - body experience ? spinelli : yeah , exactly . maxie : i 've had those . spinelli : well , so you know how it feels . but ... but then ... then it passed , and it was just me spinning [ chuckles ] as it were . it became much more natural . i mean , except when someone would comment or , you know , otherwise draw attention , which might cause me to fumble . maxie : only you , spinelli , you know that ? i mean , you are seriously the only person in the world this would happen to . do you have any idea why ? spinelli : i guess sometimes it 's not our place to question , but ... i mean , it would seem that in losing my cyber skills , other talents that may have lain dormant for years just emerged . and now this globe of 75-centimeter circumference is as precious to me as my computer ever was . and if the , uh -- [ chuckles ] the psychiatrist blog is -- is correct , there may be other talents just waiting to emerge . maxie : i guess i 'm just jealous . i do n't know . you used to spend all your time ... thinking about me . spinelli : but you do not wish that to be so , right ? maxie : well , it 's not that i do n't wish it . it 's just -- [ sighs ] i do n't know . you know , a lot 's changed in our relationship since our non - marriage . take you , for example . you 're on your second identity by now . spinelli : and you 're with dr. hunter . maxie : yes . i - i think he 's a good match for me . spinelli : on whose criteria ? maxie : i do n't know . he just is . spinelli , you probably should n't be here , you know ? i 'm -- i 'm up here waiting for my boyfriend to spend my birthday with , and it just makes you look ... desperate . spinelli : no . determined . after all , i 'm just following your advice . maxie : i gave you advice ? spinelli : yeah , you astutely opined that if someone wants something , they should simply go after it . that 's what i intend to do .

( laughs weakly ) i honestly do n't know what you 're thinking right now , son . but i think i have a pretty good guess . that you would n't be lying here right now in this bed if i had just ... if i had just waited a few more minutes for you to show up at that meeting . if i had trusted you and been a little more patient . but i was n't . and here you are . i did guess what you 're thinking , did n't i ? shayne . shayne , we 're both going to have to deal with this for the rest of our lives , but it 's going to get better , i promise you . it 's not going to be easy for you . you 're going to have to work hard , but i 'm going to be here with you , son , every day , until we get you back on your feet again . you 're a fighter , shayne . you 've always been a fighter , and i am , too . and we 're going to go after this thing together with everything we 've got , and one day you 're going to walk again , and then you 're going to run , and then you 're going to be walking out to that mound again one day with a base ... baseball . oh . i 'm sorry , i didn't ... i did n't mean that i expect ... reva : you told him ? josh : yes . by the time i finished , he would n't even look at me . but then again , neither will you , so ... you know , maybe you should think about going home and getting some sleep . reva : i 'm not going home . i 'm not tired , but if you want to go , you go . josh : not yet . marah : hey , stay away from that water fountain . we brought soup . reva : i do n't want any , thanks . marah : well , we 've got chili and cornbread , too . reva : i 'm not hungry . marina : is he awake ? josh : yes , he is . marina : okay , thanks . marah : you ca n't just not eat . reva : marah , i already answered you twice . i do n't want any food . but your father can speak for himself . marah : okay . maybe i will just go see shayne . josh : i 'm sure he 'll want to see you . marina : ta - da . i do n't know , i thought you 'd like to listen to , like , cds or the radio or whatever . marah : the baseball playoffs . or `` sandy and the mole . `` dad was in here ? so he told you about the accident ? marina : yeah , did he tell you it 's all his ... sorry . marah : shayne ? shayne , open your eyes . it is dad 's fault , and you can blame him , but you ca n't be mad at him , not forever . because he did n't mean to hurt you . right ? marina : right . marah : sometimes things just happen . people make mistakes , bad ones . people hurt each other . but that does n't mean that they do n't love each other . phillip : what the hell is wrong with this place ? olivia : what happened ? phillip : i got stuck in the elevator between floors ! olivia : it could n't have been that long , i just came up in that car . phillip : they ought to take the damn thing out of service . this is unbelievable . olivia : i 'm sure if there 's a problem , they 'll look into it . phillip : if ? what , you do n't believe me ? olivia : i believe there 's a problem . look , i think you should have a doctor look at you . phillip : no , i do n't need a doctor to look at me . i 'm fine . olivia : you 're the color of chalk and you 're dripping wet . phillip : it was hot in there ! and i 'm ... i 'm getting over a cold . i 'm fine . i 'm fine . ( exhales ) i 'm fine . i just need to sit down for a minute . olivia : why are you being so stubborn ? why do n't you just let somebody look at you , okay ? phillip : no . olivia : i bet you rick or ed is on duty . i 'll go ask a nurse . phillip : no ! just sit with me for a minute , okay ? just sit with me . olivia : what exactly happened in there ? phillip : i do n't know what happened . i walked in the elevator ; i pressed the button and the car stopped . i do n't know . maybe it did n't move . i do n't know , i do n't remember . my chest ... olivia : like you could n't breathe ? phillip : it started getting tight , yeah . and i ... my eyes . the walls , it was like they were moving . olivia : have you ever had an attack of claustrophobia before ? phillip : no . you 're thinking of the other spaulding . alan has claustrophobia , not me . olivia : so this was n't a fear of enclosed spaces ? phillip : no . i 'm in elevators every single day of my life . olivia : so what was this ? was this just a panic attack ? phillip : i do n't know . no , it was not a panic attack . ( scoffs ) panic attack . i do n't know what it was . olivia : were you thinking of anything in particular when you stepped in there ? phillip : no . i was thinking about rick and mel . they 're having a baby . olivia : what ? phillip : yeah , they just found out they 're having a baby . olivia : that 's really great . phillip : i know it is and i could n't be happier for them . olivia : were you thinking of anything else ? phillip : no . i mean , i was thinking about kids . i was thinking about having kids and obviously what a responsibility that is . i was thinking about josh , what he must be going through with shayne in such bad shape right now . olivia : did it make you worry about what might happen to your own kids ? phillip : i do n't have to worry about what might happen to them ; what has happened to them . i think about lizzie getting leukemia , zach getting hit by the car . sometimes i think this world is one big death trap . olivia : no , phillip , no . phillip : both of them -- both of them -- came this close to dying , and ... and what did i do ? i 'd done it . nothing . nothing . i did nothing . i paced the halls . i was completely useless . i 'm their father . it 's my job ... olivia : i know , it 's your job to take care of everything . phillip : right . olivia : and then you have another child on the way . phillip : i can't ... olivia : no , do n't . phillip : i can't ... olivia : okay . phillip : i ca n't fail them anymore . olivia : all right . phillip : do you understand me ? olivia : yeah . phillip : i can't . olivia : yeah . phillip : not again . i can't . i ca n't fail any of them anymore . olivia : okay . phillip : and i won't . olivia : you 're hurting me . phillip : i 'm sorry . olivia : okay . phillip : i 'm sorry . olivia : it 's okay , it 's okay . it 's okay . come with me . phillip : where ? olivia : i do n't know . we 're going to get out of here . and we 're going to take the stairs . come on . come on . marina : i 'm going to preset the college station for you . what is it ? 96.3 ? tony : how you dong ? marah : better now that you 're here . tony : well , your sister 's got all the lines , huh ? hm ? it was n't that funny . marina : no , i just ... i think he likes seeing the two of you together . is n't that right ? tony : well , you know , shayne , there 's no other place i 'd be right now than here . marah knows how much i care about her family . we 're all pulling for the same thing , for you to get better . well , i 'm going to take off . i just wanted to check up how you were doing . see you later . marina : you know , he 's right about everybody pulling for you . you would not believe the stack of letters that are down at the nurse 's station . most of them are from complete strangers , but they obviously feel like they know you . you know , you mean a lot to a lot of people . i can relate . ian : shayne ? hi . i 'm ian spector , your physical therapist . time for your first session . marina : now ? at night ? ian : it 'll guarantee he sleeps well . you family ? marina : i 'm his girlfriend , marina cooper . is there any way i can stay for this ? ian : if it 's okay with shayne . yeah , i do n't blame you . so , are you ready to dig in ? hm ? get your brain and your body back in sync ? marina : you bet he is . let 's do it . josh : reva , wait . reva : why are you following me around ? i 'm sorry . josh : reva , you 're tired . reva : yeah . josh : let me take you home . reva : i do n't want to go home . josh : you 're not going to be any good to shayne if you 're exhausted . just wait here , let me get the car . reva : i 'm not an invalid , joshua . josh : i know that , reva . i 'm just ... i 'm trying to make things easier for you . reva : i know . josh : let me take you home . and if you want , i 'll stay there with you for a while . reva : no , thanks . josh : or not . i could just drop you off . reva : you do n't have to drive me home . i can make it on my own . josh : it 's a ten minute ride , reva . reva : i realize that . josh : ten minutes is too long for you to be in the car with me alone ? fine . whatever . take a taxi or a bus . walk . reva : i 'll borrow marah 's car . josh : good , great , i 'm glad that 's settled . reva : i know you 're hurting . josh : yeah , well , part of the reason i 'm hurting is because of you . reva : oh , and why is that ? because i 'm not being the understanding , supportive wife at the moment ? josh : have i asked you for sympathy ? have i asked you for absolution , reva ? have i begged you to tell me that i did n't do a damn thing wrong ? no . because i know what i did . what 's making this so much harder for me is the fact that i have to go through it alone . reva : i wish that i could make you feel better . josh : but you ca n't . reva : any more than you can give me comfort right now . josh : at least i 'm trying . reva : well , do n't . because every time i look at you , all i see is the ... i just do n't want to make this any worse than it already is . josh : how could it possibly be any worse than it is now ? you know , maybe it would be better if you did n't have to look at me . reva : what does that mean ? josh : maybe i should just move out of the house . reva : i 'm not asking you to leave the house . josh : call it a gesture of goodwill . reva : oh , do n't make yourself out to be the martyr here . josh : oh , relax . i 'm a long way from that , reva . it would n't be forever . reva : only until things get better ? josh : yeah , that 's the idea . i mean , i 'll ... i 'll call buzz and i 'll see if he 's got a room available at the boarding house . or better yet , i could just head over there tonight . how would that be ? reva : boy , you sure do move fast when you decide to do things . josh : see , that 's exactly why i think i should move out : because i do n't really need to hear any more comments like that , reva , and this way you wo n't have to make them . reva : i do n't like this . i hate that i 'm so angry with you . it feels so ugly . josh : that 's how it comes across , reva . hey , this would be better for you , too , would n't it ? i mean , would n't it be good for you to have some time alone to think about things ? tell me the truth . reva : it might . josh : i do n't want to cause you any more pain . reva : i understand . josh : so i 'll go . reva : marah 's not going to like it . josh : i 'll explain it to her . unless , of course , you get to her first . reva : i ca n't believe that it 's come to this . josh : what part of this has been believable so far ? i think about shayne lying there in that hospital bed and i think i must be living somebody else 's life , you know ? somebody who 's in hell right now . reva : and i 'm married to him . josh : i 'd kind of like to hang onto that part , if that 's okay . you know , the married part . reva : i got that . oh , joshua ... josh : hey , you know , think about it . this ... i 'll be staying at buzz 's , it 's right across the street from the hospital , and that 's where i 'm going to be spending most of my time , so maybe this will be a good thing . ( weak laughter ) reva : a good thing ? josh : yeah . if you say no , i wo n't do it . okay . what is that that the say about tough times ? the only way through is out ? reva : that 's what they say . josh : give me about a half an hour or so , i 'll head to the house and pack some things and i 'll be gone by the time you get there . reva : okay . josh : okay . good - bye , then . reva : joshua . josh : yeah ? reva : tell buzz to give you a room away from the bathroom , because i understand the pipes bang at night . josh : good tip , thank you . good - bye . ian : shayne ? can you feel my thumb ? yeah , i know . the therapy may hurt . sorry . marina : well , at least he can feel . ian : good , good . make the movement a little more circular . marina : okay . ian : there you go . hey , two for one . not a bad deal . marina : ( laughs ) ian : oh , and your friend remy boudreau told me to give you hell . marina : you know remy ? ian : yeah . i teach two classes at the university . i 've had him as a student . marina : oh , i forgot he switched to a physical therapy major . ian : yeah . he 's a good guy . marina : yeah , he is . ian : all right . now , i do n't know how much the docs told you about spinal cord injuries . marina : actually , not much . shayne 's been asleep most of the time . ian : okay . well , according to the research , most recovery occurs within the first six months of injury . marina : so , what does that mean ? after that , there 's no hope ? ian : no , no . only that this is the crucial time , so your boyfriend 's going to have to work his butt off . marina : starting tonight . ian : you got it . now , shayne , over the next few weeks , when it feels like you ca n't take it anymore , okay , that it 's too painful and it seems like you 're making zero progress , keep working , no matter what . push yourself . okay ? marina : shayne knows how to bust his butt . he 's an athlete . ian : yeah , i heard that . pitcher , right ? signed with the cubs ? sorry , man . the cards are my team . marina : he 'll let it slide . right ? ian : i mean , look at this as a whole new kind of training . i mean , basically , with a spinal cord injury , the body ca n't respond to the signals the brain is sending . so , we 're really starting from scratch . marina : he 's up for it . ian : i hope so , because it 's not easy reteaching the body how to move , doing exercises to make sure the limbs stay flexible . marina : yeah , and the muscles do n't atrophy . ian : wow . you 're doing your homework . marina : oh , no . just , like , the two hours i was n't here last night , i did some of my own research on the internet . ian : she 's a keeper . marah : tony . all right , look , the way i see it , you did n't have to help me , so i assume you did it because you wanted to . tony : of course i did . marah : then on the other hand , any time you 're with me , it seems like you 're in agony . i know , i know , you 're dealing with something . is it me ? tony : no . marah : it is . tony : marah , come on . look , we ... we tried to be together , it did n't work out . that 's all . marah : okay , well , if it did n't work out , then that 's because of me . tony : why do you keep saying that ? marah : because , tony , i am the one who freaked out over the whole ben thing . i 'm the one who pushed you away when the pictures of that girl showed up . i knew that they were fake but i freaked out anyway . i acted like i did n't trust you again and like i was afraid of you again . tony : oh , you were right to e afraid . marah : tony , stop saying that . tony : marah , what i grew up with , all that violence , that short fuse , it 's who i am . that 's what i do . marah : not anymore . tony : marah , why do you keep beating this point , why do you keep dancing around this point ? look , our relationship has been about me blowing up , you forgiving me , then me trying to change so i do n't hurt you again . marah : you have changed . tony : no , i have n't . not enough . it is in my nature to hurt people . marah : i never believed that . i know you would never hurt me again , tony . i know that . tony : you do n't know anything , marah , because i already did something to hurt you . olivia : felling better ? phillip : yeah . a little bit . olivia : nothing like being by the water . it always calms me down . phillip : ( laughs ) talk about a cruel irony . olivia : what do you mean ? phillip : alan and i are n't even related by blood and i end up with the same condition that he has anyway . olivia : claustrophobia ? phillip : i guess i may as well admit it . olivia : it 's not that surprising , really . phillip : yeah , well , maybe not to you . i 'm ending up with all kinds of surprises lately . none of them any good . olivia : it 's about control , phillip . phillip : what ? olivia : think about it . you and alan may not share the same genes , but you 're identical in how tightly wound you are . phillip : we 're both very clear about what we want . i 'll grant you that . olivia : yeah , but when you leave no room for deviation from your plan , or timetable , you sort of become rigid and it 's a setup for a fall . phillip : or an elevator ride from hell . olivia : i 'm surprised you took this long for something to pop . because you take on too much . okay , you 're over extended . there 's no wonder you could n't breath . phillip : yeah . well , i have responsibilities , olivia . olivia : yeah , protecting everybody and fixing the world among them . you 've got to relax . phillip : oh , i know . i need to let go . just let go . olivia : you 're hearing a lot of that , lately ? phillip : oh , yeah . not just from everybody . rick and gus . from everybody . of course none of you have my life , do you ? olivia : you made your life ; you can change it . phillip : no , i can't . olivia : you can . if you want to control something , why do n't you control that ? phillip : i can't . olivia : why not ? phillip : i can't . because when i start to relax that 's when everything starts to go wrong . i thought lizzie was fine . i thought she was just fine . and she nearly killed you and this child . so you 're going to have to excuse me if i try to make sure that nothing even remotely like that ever happens again . this ... olivia : that was n't your fault . phillip : this is the life i made ? if this is the life that i made , i am in serious trouble . i have a daughter that scares the hell out of people , i 've got a father that i ca n't make peace with , i 've got a baby on the way with a woman who basically ca n't stand to have me around . that 's not true ? olivia : just take it easy . phillip : take ... take it easy . yes , thank you . the companion cliche to let go . take it easy , phillip . that 's what i need to do . i need to take it easy . olivia : i just want you to slow down . phillip : i do n't need to take it easy . i do n't need to slow down . i just need to fix it . i need to make it stop . every ... every step that you and i take apart from each other , this child keep slipping away from me . and i ca n't sit back and watch that happen . i ca n't do that . olivia : it won't . it wo n't . phillip : yes , yes , it will . it will . trust me . it will happen if i do n't do something about it . but there is something that i can do about till it 's okay . there 's something that we can do about it . olivia : okay , what ? phillip : we can get married . marry me . you let go and marry me . olivia : you know , you 're proposing marriage the way someone pile sandbags on a levee during a flood : like you 're trying to avert disaster . phillip : that does n't mean that it 's a bad idea . olivia : look i just think this is fear talking and not love , okay ? phillip : i have very strong feelings for you . olivia : you do n't want to let your little girl down . you think you 're going to make the same mistakes with her that you think you did with lizzie . that 's the only reason you want to marry me . you want to keep an eye on her so that she does n't become another one of your failures . phillip : i think we could be very happy together . olivia : i think that this ... phillip : can i ... can i ... can i just say one thing before you give me an answer ? just one thing ? olivia : sure . phillip : okay , thanks . you ... you and i might already have been there if i had trusted you more . but i did n't . i did n't trust you . i had huge doubts about you . i admit that . and i did exactly what you say i do . i tried to control everything , went behind your back , got the paternity test . did n't trust you , shut you down . no wonder you walked out on me . but you know what ? it 's been good because during this time i have been watching you . olivia : oh , god , that 's comforting . phillip : i have . no , and you ... you have taken charge of your life and this pregnancy . you 've adapted . you ... you made friends ! olivia : ( laughs ) not many . phillip : great . enough to throw you a baby shower . no , you 've become strong . you 've become independent . you 've become maternal . olivia : ( laughs ) it happens when you have a child . phillip : well , no , but that ... that 's good . see , i did n't think there was anyway that you could do this without me . i really didn't . i tell you , i did n't . i did n't think there was anyway that you could have this baby without me . but you really do n't need me for this . olivia : and i 've worked so hard to get where i am . phillip : and that ... that is why what i 'm saying to you now is totally different from all the let 's get - back - together speeches that i 've given you over the past few weeks . this is not , not about rescuing you . this ... i just want to be together . olivia : for the baby 's sake . phillip : and mine . olivia : are you saying what i think you are ? phillip : yes , i need you . marah : what did you do to hurt me ? tony : nothing . it does n't matter now . none of that matters now . marah : let me be the judge of that . tony , i do n't understand you . you say that you love me . tony : i do . marah : okay , then we can work on this . we can get past this . tony : that 's not going to happen . marah : why not ? i 'm the one who pushed you away . i made a stupid mistake , okay ? but that 's not the way it really is . tony : no , no . the way that it really is , marah , is that we tried to make this work and it was n't meant to be . marah : you do n't believe that . tony : hey , i know when it 's time to move on . i will see you later . ian : this will help keep the muscles in the forearms toned . marina : even if he ca n't move it by himself ? ian : yup . and then once he 's been fully evaluated , we 'll add electronic stimulation of the muscle group to the daily therapy . he 'll be a busy guy . marina : especially with me around . what should i do ? so i do it like this ? ian : that 's good . that 's good . nice and slow . you 're doing great . keep breathing . keep breathing , shayne . keep breathing . keep breathing . keep going . here you go . breath , shayne . here you go . keep breathing . keep breathing . marina : hey , if i 'm going to do this , you 're going to do this , too , okay ? unless you 're not the big team sports guy you say you are . reva : `` we 're pleased to tell you that there 's an opening in the freshman class full athletic scholarship . `` that 's great . it 's great . my favorite valentine . ( laughs ) surprise . shayne : tickets to the no doubt concert . reva : yes . now i know that i 'm still you 're one and only gal . josh : hey . whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa . wait a second now . how was slamfest ? huh ? ( laughs ) shayne : you mean jamfest . it was an awesome concert . but i ca n't talk . i got to change for the meeting with mr . walker . josh : yeah . shayne : do n't want to keep the big exec waiting . josh : definitely not , son . shayne : and , dad , i have a feeling tonight could have a huge impact on my pro career . josh : so do i . olivia : you need me . phillip : i do . i swear . olivia : i know how hard that is for you to say . phillip : just tell me if you 'll be my wife . an answer . i really just would like an answer . olivia : i 'm not saying no . but i 'm not saying yes , either . phillip : so that 's a non- answer answer . okay . all right . that 's a start . i feel better . yeah , i do . look , my shoulders are n't around my ears anymore . olivia : that 's good . phillip : that 's good . yes . no , us . us being together would be a good thing . okay . all right . okay . let me take you to dinner . i think the country club is still serving this late . let me call . le me get us a table . olivia : oh , you know what ?

phillip : yeah , yeah . sure i can . marina : yeah , physical therapy wore him out . marah : so is the therapist coming back tomorrow ? marina : i do n't know . even if he does n't , he 's going to get a session . marah : what do you mean ? marina : well , i 'm going to be his coach . i 'm going to be like his motivator , you know , whatever you want to call it . i 'm going to be here everyday to make sure that he does those exercises and he will walk again . marah : marina , you have the most amazing attitude , but you also have a life . now you do n't have to worry about shayne . someone will always be here for him . marina : yeah , i will . marah : and what are you going to do about school ? you ca n't keep skipping your classes . marah : i do n't know . i do n't know . and that 's why i 'm going to go down to the registers office tomorrow and i 'm going to tell them i 'm taking this semester off . i mean shayne is so much more important than school right now . josh : hi . reva : hi . josh : i 'm sorry . it took me a little longer to ... get my things together than i thought i would . reva : you only have one bag . josh : yeah , it 's a little hard to focus right now . reva : right . josh : i guess i 'd better go . reva : you 're going to be at buzz 's . josh : yeah , um . yes , i called over there and he 's got a room available . so ... reva : good . josh : i figured i 'd just drop ... drop my one bag off and head over to the hospital . reva : and you 'll let me know if there 's any news ? josh : yes , of course , i will . and i 'll probably see you there tomorrow . okay , you take care of yourself . reva : you too . olivia : next on `` guiding light . `` danny : hey ! you do n't know anything about me , you little , smart - ass punk . bill : it 's not too late , man . tony : listen , marah and i are over . i told her . girl : hey , babe , you did n't tell me it was a party . this has been `` guiding light . `` | olivia saw phillip emerge from the hospital elevator , shaking and covered with sweat . he told her he had a claustrophobia attack , and it was the first time . she tried to calm him , but , in a manic state , he asked her to marry him . she knew he was only asking because he wants the chance to look after their daughter , so she said she wo n't say yes or no . marina helped with shayne 's first physical therapy session . marah was concerned when marina said she was taking the semester off to help with shayne 's recovery . when reva admitted she ca n't even look at josh right now , josh offered to move to the boardinghouse for a while . tony stopped in to see shayne , but told marah nothing had changed between them . | <s>[INST] ( alarm bell ringing ) ( phillip breathing heavily ) ( bell rings ) marah : let me take that . marina : no , i 'm okay . i 'm fine . marah : you 're wiped out . have a seat . marina : no , i really feel like i should be in there with him . marah : sit . shayne is a lucky guy to have you in his life . marina : i have n't done anything for him . marah : except make him happy . marina : look , if anyone is lucky here , it 's me . shayne ... marah : yeah . so have you done anything about school yet ? marina : what do you mean ? marah : have you talked to your professors ? marina : no , i 'm going to worry about classes when shayne 's better . marah : okay . marina : look , marah , shayne has done more for me than any college course ever could . he helped me through one of the worst times in my life and the least that i can do is help him through one of his . marah : yeah , well , it may take a while . marina : yeah , well , i have time . josh : i guess i 'm not ... i guess i 'm not used to being the one who does all the talking , you know , especially when there 's a teenager in the room . ( laughs weakly ) i honestly do n't know what you 're thinking right now , son . but i think i have a pretty good guess . that you would n't be lying here right now in this bed if i had just ... if i had just waited a few more minutes for you to show up at that meeting . if i had trusted you and been a little more patient . but i was n't . and here you are . i did guess what you 're thinking , did n't i ? shayne . shayne , we 're both going to have to deal with this for the rest of our lives , but it 's going to get better , i promise you . it 's not going to be easy for you . you 're going to have to work hard , but i 'm going to be here with you , son , every day , until we get you back on your feet again . you 're a fighter , shayne . you 've always been a fighter , and i am , too . and we 're going to go after this thing together with everything we 've got , and one day you 're going to walk again , and then you 're going to run , and then you 're going to be walking out to that mound again one day with a base ... baseball . oh . i 'm sorry , i didn't ... i did n't mean that i expect ... reva : you told him ? josh : yes . by the time i finished , he would n't even look at me . but then again , neither will you , so ... you know , maybe you should think about going home and getting some sleep . reva : i 'm not going home . i 'm not tired , but if you want to go , you go . josh : not yet . marah : hey , stay away from that water fountain . we brought soup . reva : i do n't want any , thanks . marah : well , we 've got chili and cornbread , too . reva : i 'm not hungry . marina : is he awake ? josh : yes , he is . marina : okay , thanks . marah : you ca n't just not eat . reva : marah , i already answered you twice . i do n't want any food . but your father can speak for himself . marah : okay . maybe i will just go see shayne . josh : i 'm sure he 'll want to see you . marina : ta - da . i do n't know , i thought you 'd like to listen to , like , cds or the radio or whatever . marah : the baseball playoffs . or `` sandy and the mole . `` dad was in here ? so he told you about the accident ? marina : yeah , did he tell you it 's all his ... sorry . marah : shayne ? shayne , open your eyes . it is dad 's fault , and you can blame him , but you ca n't be mad at him , not forever . because he did n't mean to hurt you . right ? marina : right . marah : sometimes things just happen . people make mistakes , bad ones . people hurt each other . but that does n't mean that they do n't love each other . phillip : what the hell is wrong with this place ? olivia : what happened ? phillip : i got stuck in the elevator between floors ! olivia : it could n't have been that long , i just came up in that car . phillip : they ought to take the damn thing out of service . this is unbelievable . olivia : i 'm sure if there 's a problem , they 'll look into it . phillip : if ? what , you do n't believe me ? olivia : i believe there 's a problem . look , i think you should have a doctor look at you . phillip : no , i do n't need a doctor to look at me . i 'm fine . olivia : you 're the color of chalk and you 're dripping wet . phillip : it was hot in there ! and i 'm ... i 'm getting over a cold . i 'm fine . i 'm fine . ( exhales ) i 'm fine . i just need to sit down for a minute . olivia : why are you being so stubborn ? why do n't you just let somebody look at you , okay ? phillip : no . olivia : i bet you rick or ed is on duty . i 'll go ask a nurse . phillip : no ! just sit with me for a minute , okay ? just sit with me . olivia : what exactly happened in there ? phillip : i do n't know what happened . i walked in the elevator ; i pressed the button and the car stopped . i do n't know . maybe it did n't move . i do n't know , i do n't remember . my chest ... olivia : like you could n't breathe ? phillip : it started getting tight , yeah . and i ... my eyes . the walls , it was like they were moving . olivia : have you ever had an attack of claustrophobia before ? phillip : no . you 're thinking of the other spaulding . alan has claustrophobia , not me . olivia : so this was n't a fear of enclosed spaces ? phillip : no . i 'm in elevators every single day of my life . olivia : so what was this ? was this just a panic attack ? phillip : i do n't know . no , it was not a panic attack . ( scoffs ) panic attack . i do n't know what it was . olivia : were you thinking of anything in particular when you stepped in there ? phillip : no . i was thinking about rick and mel . they 're having a baby . olivia : what ? phillip : yeah , they just found out they 're having a baby . olivia : that 's really great . phillip : i know it is and i could n't be happier for them . olivia : were you thinking of anything else ? phillip : no . i mean , i was thinking about kids . i was thinking about having kids and obviously what a responsibility that is . i was thinking about josh , what he must be going through with shayne in such bad shape right now . olivia : did it make you worry about what might happen to your own kids ? phillip : i do n't have to worry about what might happen to them ; what has happened to them . i think about lizzie getting leukemia , zach getting hit by the car . sometimes i think this world is one big death trap . olivia : no , phillip , no . phillip : both of them -- both of them -- came this close to dying , and ... and what did i do ? i 'd done it . nothing . nothing . i did nothing . i paced the halls . i was completely useless . i 'm their father . it 's my job ... olivia : i know , it 's your job to take care of everything . phillip : right . olivia : and then you have another child on the way . phillip : i can't ... olivia : no , do n't . phillip : i can't ... olivia : okay . phillip : i ca n't fail them anymore . olivia : all right . phillip : do you understand me ? olivia : yeah . phillip : i can't . olivia : yeah . phillip : not again . i can't . i ca n't fail any of them anymore . olivia : okay . phillip : and i won't . olivia : you 're hurting me . phillip : i 'm sorry . olivia : okay . phillip : i 'm sorry . olivia : it 's okay , it 's okay . it 's okay . come with me . phillip : where ? olivia : i do n't know . we 're going to get out of here . and we 're going to take the stairs . come on . come on . marina : i 'm going to preset the college station for you . what is it ? 96.3 ? tony : how you dong ? marah : better now that you 're here . tony : well , your sister 's got all the lines , huh ? hm ? it was n't that funny . marina : no , i just ... i think he likes seeing the two of you together . is n't that right ? tony : well , you know , shayne , there 's no other place i 'd be right now than here . marah knows how much i care about her family . we 're all pulling for the same thing , for you to get better . well , i 'm going to take off . i just wanted to check up how you were doing . see you later . marina : you know , he 's right about everybody pulling for you . you would not believe the stack of letters that are down at the nurse 's station . most of them are from complete strangers , but they obviously feel like they know you . you know , you mean a lot to a lot of people . i can relate . ian : shayne ? hi . i 'm ian spector , your physical therapist . time for your first session . marina : now ? at night ? ian : it 'll guarantee he sleeps well . you family ? marina : i 'm his girlfriend , marina cooper . is there any way i can stay for this ? ian : if it 's okay with shayne . yeah , i do n't blame you . so , are you ready to dig in ? hm ? get your brain and your body back in sync ? marina : you bet he is . let 's do it . josh : reva , wait . reva : why are you following me around ? i 'm sorry . josh : reva , you 're tired . reva : yeah . josh : let me take you home . reva : i do n't want to go home . josh : you 're not going to be any good to shayne if you 're exhausted . just wait here , let me get the car . reva : i 'm not an invalid , joshua . josh : i know that , reva . i 'm just ... i 'm trying to make things easier for you . reva : i know . josh : let me take you home . and if you want , i 'll stay there with you for a while . reva : no , thanks . josh : or not . i could just drop you off . reva : you do n't have to drive me home . i can make it on my own . josh : it 's a ten minute ride , reva . reva : i realize that . josh : ten minutes is too long for you to be in the car with me alone ? fine . whatever . take a taxi or a bus . walk . reva : i 'll borrow marah 's car . josh : good , great , i 'm glad that 's settled . reva : i know you 're hurting . josh : yeah , well , part of the reason i 'm hurting is because of you . reva : oh , and why is that ? because i 'm not being the understanding , supportive wife at the moment ? josh : have i asked you for sympathy ? have i asked you for absolution , reva ? have i begged you to tell me that i did n't do a damn thing wrong ? no . because i know what i did . what 's making this so much harder for me is the fact that i have to go through it alone . reva : i wish that i could make you feel better . josh : but you ca n't . reva : any more than you can give me comfort right now . josh : at least i 'm trying . reva : well , do n't . because every time i look at you , all i see is the ... i just do n't want to make this any worse than it already is . josh : how could it possibly be any worse than it is now ? you know , maybe it would be better if you did n't have to look at me . reva : what does that mean ? josh : maybe i should just move out of the house . reva : i 'm not asking you to leave the house . josh : call it a gesture of goodwill . reva : oh , do n't make yourself out to be the martyr here . josh : oh , relax . i 'm a long way from that , reva . it would n't be forever . reva : only until things get better ? josh : yeah , that 's the idea . i mean , i 'll ... i 'll call buzz and i 'll see if he 's got a room available at the boarding house . or better yet , i could just head over there tonight . how would that be ? reva : boy , you sure do move fast when you decide to do things . josh : see , that 's exactly why i think i should move out : because i do n't really need to hear any more comments like that , reva , and this way you wo n't have to make them . reva : i do n't like this . i hate that i 'm so angry with you . it feels so ugly . josh : that 's how it comes across , reva . hey , this would be better for you , too , would n't it ? i mean , would n't it be good for you to have some time alone to think about things ? tell me the truth . reva : it might . josh : i do n't want to cause you any more pain . reva : i understand . josh : so i 'll go . reva : marah 's not going to like it . josh : i 'll explain it to her . unless , of course , you get to her first . reva : i ca n't believe that it 's come to this . josh : what part of this has been believable so far ? i think about shayne lying there in that hospital bed and i think i must be living somebody else 's life , you know ? somebody who 's in hell right now . reva : and i 'm married to him . josh : i 'd kind of like to hang onto that part , if that 's okay . you know , the married part . reva : i got that . oh , joshua ... josh : hey , you know , think about it . this ... i 'll be staying at buzz 's , it 's right across the street from the hospital , and that 's where i 'm going to be spending most of my time , so maybe this will be a good thing . ( weak laughter ) reva : a good thing ? josh : yeah . if you say no , i wo n't do it . okay . what is that that the say about tough times ? the only way through is out ? reva : that 's what they say . josh : give me about a half an hour or so , i 'll head to the house and pack some things and i 'll be gone by the time you get there . reva : okay . josh : okay . good - bye , then . reva : joshua . josh : yeah ? reva : tell buzz to give you a room away from the bathroom , because i understand the pipes bang at night . josh : good tip , thank you . good - bye . ian : shayne ? can you feel my thumb ? yeah , i know . the therapy may hurt . sorry . marina : well , at least he can feel . ian : good , good . make the movement a little more circular . marina : okay . ian : there you go . hey , two for one . not a bad deal . marina : ( laughs ) ian : oh , and your friend remy boudreau told me to give you hell . marina : you know remy ? ian : yeah . i teach two classes at the university . i 've had him as a student . marina : oh , i forgot he switched to a physical therapy major . ian : yeah . he 's a good guy . marina : yeah , he is . ian : all right . now , i do n't know how much the docs told you about spinal cord injuries . marina : actually , not much . shayne 's been asleep most of the time . ian : okay . well , according to the research , most recovery occurs within the first six months of injury . marina : so , what does that mean ? after that , there 's no hope ? ian : no , no . only that this is the crucial time , so your boyfriend 's going to have to work his butt off . marina : starting tonight . ian : you got it . now , shayne , over the next few weeks , when it feels like you ca n't take it anymore , okay , that it 's too painful and it seems like you 're making zero progress , keep working , no matter what . push yourself . okay ? marina : shayne knows how to bust his butt . he 's an athlete . ian : yeah , i heard that . pitcher , right ? signed with the cubs ? sorry , man . the cards are my team . marina : he 'll let it slide . right ? ian : i mean , look at this as a whole new kind of training . i mean , basically , with a spinal cord injury , the body ca n't respond to the signals the brain is sending . so , we 're really starting from scratch . marina : he 's up for it . ian : i hope so , because it 's not easy reteaching the body how to move , doing exercises to make sure the limbs stay flexible . marina : yeah , and the muscles do n't atrophy . ian : wow . you 're doing your homework . marina : oh , no . just , like , the two hours i was n't here last night , i did some of my own research on the internet . ian : she 's a keeper . marah : tony . all right , look , the way i see it , you did n't have to help me , so i assume you did it because you wanted to . tony : of course i did . marah : then on the other hand , any time you 're with me , it seems like you 're in agony . i know , i know , you 're dealing with something . is it me ? tony : no . marah : it is . tony : marah , come on . look , we ... we tried to be together , it did n't work out . that 's all . marah : okay , well , if it did n't work out , then that 's because of me . tony : why do you keep saying that ? marah : because , tony , i am the one who freaked out over the whole ben thing . i 'm the one who pushed you away when the pictures of that girl showed up . i knew that they were fake but i freaked out anyway . i acted like i did n't trust you again and like i was afraid of you again . tony : oh , you were right to e afraid . marah : tony , stop saying that . tony : marah , what i grew up with , all that violence , that short fuse , it 's who i am . that 's what i do . marah : not anymore . tony : marah , why do you keep beating this point , why do you keep dancing around this point ? look , our relationship has been about me blowing up , you forgiving me , then me trying to change so i do n't hurt you again . marah : you have changed . tony : no , i have n't . not enough . it is in my nature to hurt people . marah : i never believed that . i know you would never hurt me again , tony . i know that . tony : you do n't know anything , marah , because i already did something to hurt you . olivia : felling better ? phillip : yeah . a little bit . olivia : nothing like being by the water . it always calms me down . phillip : ( laughs ) talk about a cruel irony . olivia : what do you mean ? phillip : alan and i are n't even related by blood and i end up with the same condition that he has anyway . olivia : claustrophobia ? phillip : i guess i may as well admit it . olivia : it 's not that surprising , really . phillip : yeah , well , maybe not to you . i 'm ending up with all kinds of surprises lately . none of them any good . olivia : it 's about control , phillip . phillip : what ? olivia : think about it . you and alan may not share the same genes , but you 're identical in how tightly wound you are . phillip : we 're both very clear about what we want . i 'll grant you that . olivia : yeah , but when you leave no room for deviation from your plan , or timetable , you sort of become rigid and it 's a setup for a fall . phillip : or an elevator ride from hell . olivia : i 'm surprised you took this long for something to pop . because you take on too much . okay , you 're over extended . there 's no wonder you could n't breath . phillip : yeah . well , i have responsibilities , olivia . olivia : yeah , protecting everybody and fixing the world among them . you 've got to relax . phillip : oh , i know . i need to let go . just let go . olivia : you 're hearing a lot of that , lately ? phillip : oh , yeah . not just from everybody . rick and gus . from everybody . of course none of you have my life , do you ? olivia : you made your life ; you can change it . phillip : no , i can't . olivia : you can . if you want to control something , why do n't you control that ? phillip : i can't . olivia : why not ? phillip : i can't . because when i start to relax that 's when everything starts to go wrong . i thought lizzie was fine . i thought she was just fine . and she nearly killed you and this child . so you 're going to have to excuse me if i try to make sure that nothing even remotely like that ever happens again . this ... olivia : that was n't your fault . phillip : this is the life i made ? if this is the life that i made , i am in serious trouble . i have a daughter that scares the hell out of people , i 've got a father that i ca n't make peace with , i 've got a baby on the way with a woman who basically ca n't stand to have me around . that 's not true ? olivia : just take it easy . phillip : take ... take it easy . yes , thank you . the companion cliche to let go . take it easy , phillip . that 's what i need to do . i need to take it easy . olivia : i just want you to slow down . phillip : i do n't need to take it easy . i do n't need to slow down . i just need to fix it . i need to make it stop . every ... every step that you and i take apart from each other , this child keep slipping away from me . and i ca n't sit back and watch that happen . i ca n't do that . olivia : it won't . it wo n't . phillip : yes , yes , it will . it will . trust me . it will happen if i do n't do something about it . but there is something that i can do about till it 's okay . there 's something that we can do about it . olivia : okay , what ? phillip : we can get married . marry me . you let go and marry me . olivia : you know , you 're proposing marriage the way someone pile sandbags on a levee during a flood : like you 're trying to avert disaster . phillip : that does n't mean that it 's a bad idea . olivia : look i just think this is fear talking and not love , okay ? phillip : i have very strong feelings for you . olivia : you do n't want to let your little girl down . you think you 're going to make the same mistakes with her that you think you did with lizzie . that 's the only reason you want to marry me . you want to keep an eye on her so that she does n't become another one of your failures . phillip : i think we could be very happy together . olivia : i think that this ... phillip : can i ... can i ... can i just say one thing before you give me an answer ? just one thing ? olivia : sure . phillip : okay , thanks . you ... you and i might already have been there if i had trusted you more . but i did n't . i did n't trust you . i had huge doubts about you . i admit that . and i did exactly what you say i do . i tried to control everything , went behind your back , got the paternity test . did n't trust you , shut you down . no wonder you walked out on me . but you know what ? it 's been good because during this time i have been watching you . olivia : oh , god , that 's comforting . phillip : i have . no , and you ... you have taken charge of your life and this pregnancy . you 've adapted . you ... you made friends ! olivia : ( laughs ) not many . phillip : great . enough to throw you a baby shower . no , you 've become strong . you 've become independent . you 've become maternal . olivia : ( laughs ) it happens when you have a child . phillip : well , no , but that ... that 's good . see , i did n't think there was anyway that you could do this without me . i really didn't . i tell you , i did n't . i did n't think there was anyway that you could have this baby without me . but you really do n't need me for this . olivia : and i 've worked so hard to get where i am . phillip : and that ... that is why what i 'm saying to you now is totally different from all the let 's get - back - together speeches that i 've given you over the past few weeks . this is not , not about rescuing you . this ... i just want to be together . olivia : for the baby 's sake . phillip : and mine . olivia : are you saying what i think you are ? phillip : yes , i need you . marah : what did you do to hurt me ? tony : nothing . it does n't matter now . none of that matters now . marah : let me be the judge of that . tony , i do n't understand you . you say that you love me . tony : i do . marah : okay , then we can work on this . we can get past this . tony : that 's not going to happen . marah : why not ? i 'm the one who pushed you away . i made a stupid mistake , okay ? but that 's not the way it really is . tony : no , no . the way that it really is , marah , is that we tried to make this work and it was n't meant to be . marah : you do n't believe that . tony : hey , i know when it 's time to move on . i will see you later . ian : this will help keep the muscles in the forearms toned . marina : even if he ca n't move it by himself ? ian : yup . and then once he 's been fully evaluated , we 'll add electronic stimulation of the muscle group to the daily therapy . he 'll be a busy guy . marina : especially with me around . what should i do ? so i do it like this ? ian : that 's good . that 's good . nice and slow . you 're doing great . keep breathing . keep breathing , shayne . keep breathing . keep breathing . keep going . here you go . breath , shayne . here you go . keep breathing . keep breathing . marina : hey , if i 'm going to do this , you 're going to do this , too , okay ?

what does she have to do with anything ? kate : nicole , ted and i have had a lot of time to think about it , okay ? why we were hit over the head , why we were kidnapped , why we 've been stashed under the dimera mansion . ted : and the only explanation we can come up with is that kristen is holding something over your head . kristen as nicole : you do remember kristen dimera is dead ? ted : oh , is she ? because everyone in that warehouse fire has turned up alive . kate : including you . and have you forgotten that kristen 's father is in phoenix himself ? ted : nicole , holly is not dead either . kate : it 's true , nicole , but you desperately wanted everyone to believe that ! and why -- why would a mother want everyone to think that she 's grieving ? kristen as nicole : she wouldn't . kate : that 's right , she wouldn't . unless , perhaps , kristen faked holly 's death and is holding her somewhere and is forcing you to do her bidding . ted : and you 're terrified , terrified that the truth will come out and then kristen will really hurt holly . kristen as nicole : that 's very ... creative . but what makes you think the late kristen dimera is involved ?

kate : okay . for starters , i know exactly how to deal with kristen . kristen as nicole : is that a fact ? kate : yeah , that is a fact . she may be a dimera , but i 've been married to two of them . kristen as nicole : then by your theory , why are you locked in there , and kristen 's out running around ? ted : kate , she has a point . kristen as nicole : okay , you know what , i 'm gon na let you little love birds get back to doing whatever it is you were doing before i interrupted . seemed like a vigorous way to pass the time while in captivity . kate : [ stammers ] nicole ! you ca n't leave us in here . kristen as nicole : do n't do anything i would n't do . ted : please , nicole do n't go . kate : nicole ! no ! no ! no , we could die in here ! nicole !

[ dramatic sting ] brady : are yo -- that happened ? really ? chloe : yeah , that happened . i -- i do n't get it . i thought stefan and gabi hated each other . brady : yeah , yeah , yeah ... chloe : i know they say that there 's that fine line between love and hate , but come on . the guy framed her for andre 's murder . she went to prison for it . she was beaten within an inch of her life . how do you go from that and then turn around and have sex with the guy ? it just -- it does n't make any sense . brady : no . [ blows raspberry ] not unless you , um , not unless you know the whole story . kristen as nicole : do n't go downstairs . gabi : why not ? kristen as nicole : because ... when i was wandering the tunnels i started to thinking . gabi : about ? kristen as nicole : about how i should n't have shot down your ideas earlier . gabi : you changed your mind about the party ? kristen as nicole : yes . you were right . margaritas would be more fun and hip -- i mean , better than some musty champagne party . stefan : you were so insistent earlier . kristen as nicole : yeah , i -- i know , i -- i have a tendency to dig in when i 'm challenged . and i 'm not very good at listening to other points of view . gabi : so what changed your mind ? kristen as nicole : i realized that i owe you , stefan , for giving me a chance . uh -- we 're on the same team , right ? we want the same thing ? stefan : what 's that ? kristen as nicole : for dimera to come out on top . stefan : glad to hear you say it . kristen as nicole : gabi , i 'm sorry for coming on so strong before . i guess i 'm just still so angry for what happened the last few years , and i will do a better job of channeling it more constructively from now on . gabi : well , i accept your apology , and i 'm sure stefan does too . kristen as nicole : oh . since when do you speak for him ? [ dramatic music ] [ pounding on door ] ted : open this door ! kate : ted , stop ! ted : you can not leave us in here , nicole . kate : no , she can . and she did , she 's gone . ted : [ sighs ] kate , look , is it me or nicole looked surprised , surprised to find us in here ? kate : no , yes , i think she was surprised , but she was surprised to find us alive , which means that xander was lying to her , because he led her to believe that we were dead . ted : then why , why was she in -- why was she in the tunnel in the first place ? kate : i do n't know , maybe she thought our bodies were down here and she was going to dispose of them . ted : wow , there 's a happy thought . [ soft dramatic music ] kate : but when she found us alive , why did n't she just kill us on the spot ? ted : well , maybe -- maybe she did n't expect us , she did n't expect us here . look , she did n't even have a weapon . kate : so now that she knows that we 're alive ... ted : is she gon na -- is she gon na come back ? is she gon na come back to finish us off ? eric : sami encouraged me to tell sarah how i felt . marlena : oh -- [ soft laugh ] i 'm sorry , it -- it is n't often that i agree with sami 's advice , but , boy , this time i do . eric : mm - hmm . marlena : so , you talk to sarah ? eric : no . before i had a chance , sarah and rex , they asked me to marry them . marlena : hm . did it occur to you to say no ? eric : mom , i 'm not gon na do to rex like i did to brady . i ca n't do that to sarah either . marlena : do -- do n't you think that sarah deserves a chance at happiness ? eric : she deserves to be loved by somebody wholeheartedly . marlena : and do you think that 's rex ? eric : i hope so . marlena : well what about rex ? does n't he deserve to have someone love him with her whole heart ? eric : well , sarah does love rex . marlena : not the way she loves you . eric : then why would she decide to marry him ? marlena : well , i think that she would marry him so she could get over the way she feels about you . but in my experience , that does n't work very well . rex : of course i did not sleep with chloe lane . why would you ask me that ? sarah : be -- because you said the word `` confession `` and then a woman 's name . rex : sarah , i promised you that i would never betray you again . sarah : i know . i 'm sorry i jumped to the worst . rex : i get that . but you can trust me . you need to trust me . sarah : so -- so what is this , all about chloe lane ? rex : i gave her the necklace from xander . [ soft music ] sarah : you gave her my necklace ? rex : it was a wedding gift . so technically it was both of ours . sarah : it 's a woman 's necklace . rex : [ chuckles ] i 'm sorry . i 'm just -- i know i 'm reaching a little bit . i wanted to get rid of the thing because of all the bad memories it brought up . and i did n't mean to upset you . i 'm sorry . sarah : no , it 's -- it 's okay . and you 're right . i 've done some pretty impulsive things in my day , and i definitely do n't want anything from xander . rex : and neither do i . the guy 's dangerous and i do n't trust him . especially now . sarah : why ? why now ? what did he do ? rex : well , he apparently sent my mom on a business trip to asia to get her out of brady 's hair , but things are n't adding up . sarah : what do you mean ? rex : well , i do n't want to be overthinking this , but i 'm getting these weird texts , and she 's not answering her phone . sarah : well , i mean , if she 's out of the country , it 's -- maybe she does n't have good service . it 's possible that the call did n't even go through . rex : i suppose . i mean , i left her a message , but -- you know what ? i 'm just gon na try her again . ted : okay , wait , kate , maybe we are just overreacting . we only have xander 's word that nicole wanted us dead . kate : oh -- oh , really ? so xander is now the good guy in this scenario ? ted : well , kate , he did spare my life . kate : oh , what a peach he is . what a peach . ted : you said -- you said that nicole was not a bad person . that means she 's not capable of murder ? kate : no . [ soft chuckle ] oh , god . she is most capable of murder . okay , i was sweet - talking her , hoping that she would let us out of here . ted : wonderful . kate : oh yeah it 's wonderful . uh , she 's faked pregnancy . she -- she switched babies . and she has killed , all right ? so to protect her child , to protect holly , she 's more than capable of killing again . hope : what did you do with ted ? did you kill him ? xander : [ sighs ] of course i did n't kill ted . hope : why should i believe you ? xander : because you sound insane . look , i know it must be very painful to lose your husb -- hope : i know you 're connected -- i know you are connected to ted 's disappearance , xander . xander : i do n't have time for this , i need to -- [ cell phone rings ] hope : answer your phone ? if you 're so eager to end this conversation with me , i 'd think you 'd want to answer your phone . xander : i do n't care about the phone . hope : oh , you do n't ? what 's that ? xander : what ? hope : it looks like you have another phone in your pocket . xander : so ? hope : so why do you have two phones ? and why were you fumbling with the one in your hand like you do n't know how to work it ? why is that , xander ? xander : i do n't know what you 're talking about . hope : it 's ted 's phone , is n't it ? oh ! oh ! brady : it was -- it was kind of my idea for gabi to pursue stefan . chloe : your idea ? why ? brady : [ sighs ] because you had just moved in and ... chloe : you were hoping that she would come between me and stefan ? brady : i 'm not proud of it , all right ? chloe : okay , so i could see why you would want it , but why would gabi help you do that ? brady : because gabi wanted revenge on stefan , for all the crap that he 's put her through . chloe : mm , how is sleeping with him revenge ? [ soft dramatic music ] brady : i suggested that she could seduce him and perhaps have him fall in love with her , and then have him marry her , and then she could take him for everything he 's worth . good plan , right ? chloe : seriously ? brady : yeah . chloe : you planned all that ? brady : i -- i wanted to keep you safe . chloe : [ exhales ] so you thought that if you could get stefan away from me , that i would instantly fall back in love with you ? brady : yeah . chloe : [ laughs ] brady : [ soft laugh ] chloe , i thought it would maybe give us another chance or something . but i realized in the park when you busted me on the whole thing that i was acting ... a little ridiculous . so , i just told gabi i was out . chloe : but she kept going ? brady : yeah , gabi claimed that she was in too deep to quit . chloe : so you 're saying what i walked in on was just part of a scam ? gabi 's plan to destroy stefan ? brady : mm - hmm . and if they were sleeping together ? i guess it 's working . kristen as nicole : you two have been a real team lately . when did that happen ? stefan : like you said , we 're all after the same thing , right ? kristen as nicole : oh , yeah . well , listen , i really have to go . stefan : you 're leaving ? now ? gabi : wow , glad you put in a whole two hours after you missed your first day entirely . kristen as nicole : i was sick . gabi : so you said . kristen as nicole : to be honest , i still do n't feel that great . gabi : you look fine to me . kristen as nicole : do you have something to say to me you -- gabi : what was that ? did you want to finish ? kristen as nicole : nothing . no , i -- just really should go home and get some rest . i would n't want to infect you . i 'll see you tomorrow . hasta mañana ... team .

why would i go to all that trouble ? hope : i do n't know . maybe you were ... working some scam . maybe you were going to demand ransom for holly 's return ? or you just wanted to punish nicole , because she divorced you and you wanted to give her a false hope that her daughter was still alive . xander : false hope ?

what does she have to do with anything ? kate : nicole , ted and i have had a lot of time to think about it , okay ? why we were hit over the head , why we were kidnapped , why we 've been stashed under the dimera mansion . ted : and the only explanation we can come up with is that kristen is holding something over your head . kristen as nicole : you do remember kristen dimera is dead ? ted : oh , is she ? because everyone in that warehouse fire has turned up alive . kate : including you . and have you forgotten that kristen 's father is in phoenix himself ? ted : nicole , holly is not dead either . kate : it 's true , nicole , but you desperately wanted everyone to believe that ! and why -- why would a mother want everyone to think that she 's grieving ? kristen as nicole : she wouldn't . kate : that 's right , she wouldn't . unless , perhaps , kristen faked holly 's death and is holding her somewhere and is forcing you to do her bidding . ted : and you 're terrified , terrified that the truth will come out and then kristen will really hurt holly . kristen as nicole : that 's very ... creative . but what makes you think the late kristen dimera is involved ? kate : well , for one thing , maggie saw her in your room wearing a red dress . kristen as nicole : maggie took a tumble off the wagon . wait , you 're really gon na believe the memory of a drunk ? she might as well have seen elvis himself . kate : nicole , i know what i saw , okay ? and i saw a red dress in your closet , and i 'm also pretty damn sure that that voice i heard behind the door was kristen dimera 's . ted : kate did n't see who hit her over the head . for all we know , it was kristen , it was not you . kate : nicole ? listen , if all of these theories are right , i know that you 're feeling desperate right now , i know it . ted : nicole , we can help you . kristen as nicole : [ scoffs ] how could you possibly help me ? kate : okay . for starters , i know exactly how to deal with kristen . kristen as nicole : is that a fact ? kate : yeah , that is a fact . she may be a dimera , but i 've been married to two of them . kristen as nicole : then by your theory , why are you locked in there , and kristen 's out running around ? ted : kate , she has a point . kristen as nicole : okay , you know what , i 'm gon na let you little love birds get back to doing whatever it is you were doing before i interrupted . seemed like a vigorous way to pass the time while in captivity . kate : [ stammers ] nicole ! you ca n't leave us in here . kristen as nicole : do n't do anything i would n't do . ted : please , nicole do n't go . kate : nicole ! no ! no ! no , we could die in here ! nicole !

[ dramatic sting ] brady : are yo -- that happened ? really ? chloe : yeah , that happened . i -- i do n't get it . i thought stefan and gabi hated each other . brady : yeah , yeah , yeah ... chloe : i know they say that there 's that fine line between love and hate , but come on . the guy framed her for andre 's murder . she went to prison for it . she was beaten within an inch of her life . how do you go from that and then turn around and have sex with the guy ? it just -- it does n't make any sense . brady : no .

[ dramatic music ] [ pounding on door ] ted : open this door ! kate : ted , stop ! ted : you can not leave us in here , nicole . kate : no , she can . and she did , she 's gone . ted : [ sighs ] kate , look , is it me or nicole looked surprised , surprised to find us in here ? kate : no , yes , i think she was surprised , but she was surprised to find us alive , which means that xander was lying to her , because he led her to believe that we were dead . ted : then why , why was she in -- why was she in the tunnel in the first place ? kate : i do n't know , maybe she thought our bodies were down here and she was going to dispose of them . ted : wow , there 's a happy thought . [ soft dramatic music ] kate : but when she found us alive , why did n't she just kill us on the spot ? ted : well , maybe -- maybe she did n't expect us , she did n't expect us here . look , she did n't even have a weapon . kate : so now that she knows that we 're alive ... ted : is she gon na -- is she gon na come back ? is she gon na come back to finish us off ? eric : sami encouraged me to tell sarah how i felt . marlena : oh -- [ soft laugh ] i 'm sorry , it -- it is n't often that i agree with sami 's advice , but , boy , this time i do . eric : mm - hmm . marlena : so , you talk to sarah ? eric : no . before i had a chance , sarah and rex , they asked me to marry them . marlena : hm . did it occur to you to say no ? eric : mom , i 'm not gon na do to rex like i did to brady . i ca n't do that to sarah either . marlena : do -- do n't you think that sarah deserves a chance at happiness ? eric : she deserves to be loved by somebody wholeheartedly . marlena : and do you think that 's rex ? eric : i hope so . marlena : well what about rex ? does n't he deserve to have someone love him with her whole heart ? eric : well , sarah does love rex . marlena : not the way she loves you . eric : then why would she decide to marry him ? marlena : well , i think that she would marry him so she could get over the way she feels about you . but in my experience , that does n't work very well . rex : of course i did not sleep with chloe lane . why would you ask me that ? sarah : be -- because you said the word `` confession `` and then a woman 's name . rex : sarah , i promised you that i would never betray you again . sarah : i know . i 'm sorry i jumped to the worst . rex : i get that . but you can trust me . you need to trust me . sarah : so -- so what is this , all about chloe lane ? rex : i gave her the necklace from xander .

[ scene_break ] franco : you know what i have planned ? carly : the big surprise ? yeah . the haunted star . i ran into lulu , and -- and it was out of her mouth before she remembered it was a secret . franco : well , the operative word was `` secret , `` huh ? carly : i know , but the point is , i know now . franco : i 'll have to figure out another way to keep you on your toes , i guess . carly : come on . i know that it 's in your nature to do things theatrically . but switching the venue at the last minute -- that is a logistical nightmare for our guests , franco . franco : it 's not like we got to make a lot of calls , carly . there 's not a lot of people that really believe in us . i mean , certainly not the way you do . and forgive me -- i probably should have told you about it . it 's just that , you know , for me , changing the venue to the haunted star , it 's perfect . it 's the perfect place for us to say our vows . that 's where we first ran into one another when i came back to town . [ scene_break ] madeline : ava is having some cramps , normal pregnancy stuff . rosalie assures me that she 's getting all the right medications . nina : oh , thank god my baby 's gon na be okay . [ door opens ] dr. obrecht : i see the intriganten are still plotting away in my office . nina : oh , auntie liesl . i have n't had the chance to thank you . thank you so much . oh ! if it were n't for you , i would have been arrested . i was just defending myself against silas . i was so frightened . dr. obrecht : do n't strain yourself . i 'm doing this for nathan . he cares about you . other than that , i do n't want to know about any of the details . i have my own problems . madeline : she always does . nina : mother , please . hush . auntie liesl has so much pressure . i mean , running the hospital , all the patients . dr. obrecht : if only it were just the patients . earlier today , i found out that my head nurse was covering for one of her subordinates . nina : oh , how dare she ? dr. obrecht : and this was no mere disciplinary infraction . one of her nurses intentionally gave a patient the wrong prescription . the medication was supposed to treat the patient 's pregnancy cramps . instead , she was given a drug that could have caused premature labor . nina : did you say premature labor ? [ scene_break ] ava : silas mentioned to me that he was concerned about nina 's emotional instability and that she has a grudge against me in particular . kiki : right , because ... ava : because of my relationship with your father and the fact that i was blessed with a beautiful daughter while she languished in a coma . kiki : mom , do you really think nina could hurt you ? ava : no . but if she finds out where i am , i have no doubt that she 'll tell sonny . you told nina where i am , did n't you ? [ scene_break ] michael : i think ava pressured carlos into confessing . sonny : based on what ? michael : something i heard from one of his friends . ava wanted him to take the fall for somebody else . sonny : for who , mike ? michael : herself , i think . sonny : you think ava killed aj ? is that what you 're saying , michael ? michael : i ca n't prove it , but yes . yes , i - i think so . look , ava was living under your roof . you guys must have gotten closer . do you know anything about who really shot my father ? [ scene_break ] larry : [ groans ] thank you , son . you are a great comfort to me . ned : i wish i could say the same about you . larry : and who is this enchanting young lady ? lulu : lulu spencer - falconeri . do you know where my father is ? larry : ah . family -- it 's so important . ned , you have to tell me about my beautiful granddaughter . i 've yet to hear her on radio 1 . ned : the music business is tough , as you know , and l & b records is a boutique label , so ... larry : `` boutique . `` that 's american for `` cash - poor . `` nedsfer , you have to inject some revenue into this operation . throw your title around . you 're the son of a lord . tracy : oh , you are no more a lord than i 'm a supreme . your title is as phony as your teeth . you have n't changed one iota ! ned : not true , mother . he switched to bourbon . how much have you had to drink , by the way ? larry : not nearly enough . i 've apparently taken a trans - atlantic flight in which nobody even bothered to offer me a complimentary mimosa . ah . what 's everybody drinking ? tracy : nothing . no drinks . not until you tell us what happened to luke spencer . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : i 'm gon na take you back to your room . you must be exhausted . jason : wait , wait , wait , wait . last place i want to be is back in that bed . elizabeth : do n't say that too loud or dr. o will give it away . jason : fine by me . elizabeth : i happen to think you still need medical attention , so humor me , okay ? jason : okay . i will . i promise . but first i need a favor . elizabeth : what kind of favor ? jason : help me up . elizabeth : are you ready to take some steps ? jason : think a little higher . elizabeth : how high ? jason : mount everest . [ scene_break ] nina : what 's the patient 's name ? i 'd like to send her flowers . dr. obrecht : i ca n't tell you that . now , if you 'll excuse me , i have to go speak to nurse johnson . keep your plotting down to a dull roar . the last thing i need is for the hospital board to find you both here . [ door closes ] nina : medication ? premature labor ? i 'd bet my entire inheritance that that patient 's name is ava jerome . [ scene_break ] ava : i knew you could n't be trusted . kiki : mom . ava : did you think i was joking when i told you to keep your mouth shut ? i am ava jerome . you are probably familiar with my family . and we have ways of dealing with people who cross us . so you are about to feel the wrath of my entire family ! rosalie : back off , okay ? i did n't tell nina where you were . ava : and you expect me to take your word for that ? maybe you 're here to confirm for nina that i have n't moved . rosalie : i am here to warn you . nina is going off the rails , and she has it in for you . [ scene_break ] sonny : michael , there 's something that i -- michael : i 'm sorry . no , you -- you would have told me if she did . i wish i could talk to her myself , you know ? but kiki said that ava 's missing . sonny : yeah , yeah , i heard that . michael : you know , it was one thing when i thought that aj 's killer got off easy . it 's another thing to wonder if his killer is still out there getting away with it . it 's why i came here -- to promise aj i was n't gon na let it go . maybe -- maybe your -- your people could , uh , look for ava ? sonny : i 'm gon na look for ava . michael , i 'm gon na -- she 's pregnant with my child or grandchild . but i do n't think this is something that you should pursue . michael : i know . look , even if i do find her , i doubt she 's gon na tell me the truth . i just -- i have to try , you know . i ca n't -- i ca n't live with this uncertainty . sonny : i 'll let you know if i find her . michael : thank you . that means a lot . and i know you got a lot on your mind right now . mom 's wedding is tomorrow . [ scene_break ] carly : i 'm just surprised you look back on that night on the haunted star so fondly . i mean , you were n't exactly welcomed with open arms , and ... the first thing i said to you was that i wished that you were dead . franco : that 's true . and if memory serves , you actually hired somebody to try and make that a reality . carly : hmm . [ scene_break ] shawn : so you think franco hired me to bust you out of ferncliff ? heather : hey , it 's just us here . i appreciate your commitment , but you do n't have to be so hush - hush . i saw my son yesterday , and he said he was gon na send you to pick me up . shawn : he sure did . well , since it 's just us , did he ever tell you why i needed to bust you out of ferncliff ? you know , do you , uh , do you know what franco 's planning ? heather : my son did n't tell you about his big plan ? shawn : you know , it must have slipped his mind . heather : oh , it 's a doozy , i 'll tell you . on second thought ... maybe franco wants to keep a lid on it . something between mother and son alone . so i think i 'll keep my lips zipped until i talk to my son . unless it 's to eat another one of these . whoo ! [ scene_break ] carly : can you never bring that up again ever , please ? i mean , i ... i ca n't believe i asked shawn to kill you . it -- it was such a mistake . and ... i - i just did n't believe that you had changed . franco : i know . and that 's what makes the haunted star such a perfect fit . i want to show everybody how much i 've changed . i mean , i showed those videos to everybody , because i wanted to prove that i was n't the person that everybody thought that i was , to show everybody that i had n't done those things to michael and sam that everybody thought that i 'd done . and what better place to show the world who i really am than the haunted star ? where i can -- where i can finally say that i love you until death do us part ? and who knows ? i might even show another little video . [ scene_break ] michael : dad , there 's something i do n't -- i do n't want you to -- to hear from anybody else . i 'm franco 's best man . sonny : say that again ? michael : i 'm franco 's -- it -- it creeps the hell out of me , too , okay ? sonny : right . michael : franco asked me . more like begged me . he , uh , he mentioned how much it would mean to mom . that 's the only reason i 'm agreeing to it . sonny : you do n't have to defend your choices to me . michael : i know , i know . i just -- i 've been paying attention to what 's been going on between you and mom lately , and you still got -- you have feelings for her , right ? sonny : you already know the answer to that . michael : for what it 's worth , i wish i was standing up for you and mom 's wedding tomorrow . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : jake , i do n't know if you 're ready to go climbing just yet . this is your first time out of bed . jason : i survived getting run down by a car . i 'm pretty sure i can handle a flight of stairs . elizabeth : yeah , but you 're still recovering . jason : dr. o wants me thrown out of here . as much as i hate giving her any cooperation whatsoever , i 'm eager to go . elizabeth : i do n't think you 're ready . jason : then help me get ready . at least this way , if i fall , i 've got a beautiful nurse by my side , right ? elizabeth : but if i say stop , you 're gon na stop , correct ? jason : mm - hmm . i will . you got it . elizabeth : all right . jason : all right . hmm . here we go .

[ scene_break ] doctor : it 's going to help that you brought in the pills you think she ingested . lucky : just tell me i got her here in time . doctor : we ca n't be sure how much of the drug is in her system , but the report seems to indicate you got to her pretty soon after she took them . it 's a good thing she called you . lucky : what -- what are you going to do for her ? doctor : pump her stomach . then we 'll go from there . she 'll be brought back to this room when we 're done . lucky : i 'll be waiting here . diego : what the hell -- lucky ; hey ! diego : this is the same stuff maxie had . i know she 's been scoring street drugs for a friend . that was you ? lucky : do n't be ridiculous . diego : no , i 've seen you going to those na meetings at gh . you 're using , and you 've been lying to everybody , saying that you 're not . am i right , detective ? lucky : just -- diego : no , listen . what are you doing , huh ? you and maxie get high together ? is that what it is ? why could n't you stop her -- lucky : maxie has never taken any pills as far as i know . she never has , all right ? this is just completely out of nowhere . diego : oh , right , right . a girl who does n't use just suddenly decides to go flying high and accidentally takes too much . lucky : listen -- that 's what scares me . i do n't think this was an accident , because i think -- i think she deliberately od 'd because i told her that i was getting back with elizabeth . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : i 'm not denying that i still love lucky . i just ca n't live with him . and i do n't -- i do n't want this to blow up into a personal vendetta against you . especially when lucky 's not in his right mind . so maybe if you can just steer clear of him until all of this settles -- jason : lucky -- he 's not going to hurt me . you 're a different story . you and your child . how is cameron dealing with all this ? elizabeth : cameron is -- he 's confused . he does n't understand why his daddy is not there . he loves him . i just ca n't believe my family has ended up like this . jason : all right , what if -- what if lucky got clean ? elizabeth : he tried that and it did n't work . jason : it does n't always work the first time . elizabeth : nikolas is -- he found this rehab facility . he 's trying to get lucky in it , but he wo n't go . so i guess that means the pills are more important than me and cameron . so i 've decided that protecting my son is more important than supporting a man who is willing to throw his life away .

[ scene_break ] elizabeth : i 'm not denying that i still love lucky . i just ca n't live with him . and i do n't -- i do n't want this to blow up into a personal vendetta against you . especially when lucky 's not in his right mind . so maybe if you can just steer clear of him until all of this settles -- jason : lucky -- he 's not going to hurt me . you 're a different story . you and your child . how is cameron dealing with all this ? elizabeth : cameron is -- he 's confused . he does n't understand why his daddy is not there . he loves him . i just ca n't believe my family has ended up like this . jason : all right , what if -- what if lucky got clean ? elizabeth : he tried that and it did n't work . jason : it does n't always work the first time . elizabeth : nikolas is -- he found this rehab facility . he 's trying to get lucky in it , but he wo n't go . so i guess that means the pills are more important than me and cameron . so i 've decided that protecting my son is more important than supporting a man who is willing to throw his life away .

nick : sage ? sage : huh ? i 'm sorry . what were you saying ? nick : it 's okay . i 'm sure you 're preoccupied . probably thinking about sharon and -- sage : why would you say that ? nick : [ chuckles ] well , you did n't let me finish . i was gon na say you probably were thinking about sharon and chelsea and fashion and marketing . look , you got to just relax . i 'm sure they are gon na love whatever ideas you 're cooking up . how is work going ? sage : good . i actually have some stuff i need to do . i got to go . nick : uh , okay . yeah . knock 'em dead . sage : hey . i want to tell you something . i love you . you know that ? nick : yeah . sage : i believe in us and our future . and i 'm still hoping that one day we 're gon na have the family we were meant to have . nick : that makes two of us . knock 'em dead , hmm ? sharon : you are sullivan mcavoy . you are my son . you are dylan 's son . and i -- you have to be . yeah . dylan : oh , hey . uh , sorry . i did n't mean to scare you . sharon : oh , i guess i 've just been a little anxious . dylan : oh , there he is . well , i guess , partly , that is my fault . you 've been on edge ever since nikki moved in . sharon : um , dylan ... dylan : hi . hi . yes ? do you want her to leave ? sharon : well , i know you need to look after your mom , but having her here and looking over my shoulder , judging me all the time -- it 's just too much . and she 's feeling fine now . is n't it time she go back home ? nikki : gladly . dylan : um ... okay . i know it has n't been the easiest , all of us living under the same roof . nikki : it 's been impossible . dylan : but we should n't make a hasty decision . sharon : hasty ? nikki : if i was looking for peace and relaxation , the last place i would find it is with her . dylan : can we try to discuss this like adults ? nikki : it 's actually sharon 's attitude that starts everything . dylan : hey , can you guys remember that sully 's right here and faith is in her room upstairs ? [ baby fusses ] [ cell phone rings ] dylan : what ? hi , baby . sharon : hello ? mrs. mcavoy , your dna test results are in . sharon : thank you . i 'll be right there . nikki : problem , sharon ? stitch : let 's go , max . you have to go to soccer , and it 'll look bad if the new kid 's late for practice , all right ? max : i do n't want to go anywhere else or see anyone else . stitch : why not , buddy ? max : because of what happened to abby . ashley : i do n't think i 'm ever gon na over the sight of seeing abby fall down the stairs . dr. neville : it was devastating . jack : did you see her this morning ? ashley : no . i thought i 'd give her some time to rest . but i saw her yesterday after she got home from the hospital . jack : and ? how was she ? ashley : she 's trying to be strong . it 's gon na be a while before she comes to terms with this miscarriage . jack : if there 's anything the family can do to help , let us know . ashley : by the way , it was so sweet of kyle to fly in for the day . jack : yeah . kyle misses a lot , being in new york , but he was n't gon na miss seeing abby . by the way , he is still concerned about her . ashley : so am i . dr. neville : she is strong . ashley : i know . i know . but i know from firsthand experience that losing a child can mess with your mind . i 'm very concerned about her . abby : do n't be . i 'm here and ready to work . hilary : neil . what are you doing here ? neil : i 'm meeting with jack . foundation business . hilary : so , he is n't just here to see ashley . he 's gon na kick me off the board , and he wants you present to do it . neil : where is he ? hilary : he 's in the office with ashley and neville . consider this carefully , neil , because unless you want to be exposed as the man who kidnapped me , you 're gon na help me convince jack to keep me on that board . neil : i would rather break all the glass in this lab and eat every single shard . hilary : your choice . but the clock is ticking , so you need to decide -- would you rather save me ... or yourself ? sharon : no problem . but i have to do something for chelsea , so i have to go . i 'll see you later . dylan : okay . nikki : bye , sharon . dylan : sorry about that . nikki : [ sighs ] dylan : there 's got to be a way to make things less ... nikki : adversarial ? dylan : yeah . it should n't be that difficult . nikki : well , i apologize for my part . the truth is , even before i overheard sharon badgering you to get me out of here -- dylan : she was n't really badgering . nikki : well , i had already decided it was time for me to go . dylan : are you sure you 're ready for that ? nikki : you 're such a good son . yes . i am definitely ready for it . dylan : nikki ... nikki : look , i wo n't be far . my house is on the same property . if i need you , i call you . dylan : well , you did n't call me the last time . nikki : and i learned my lesson . so i 'm gon na go back . dylan : okay . well , just tell me why you really want to leave . nikki : honey , do n't worry . i 'm not trying to run away from your eagle eye . i 'm not hiding anything , really . i just -- i 'm trying to accept where i am now . dylan : but you told you were lonely . nikki : yes , i am . that 's why i went to see victor yesterday , hoping he would forgive me . because all this time , i thought that i needed his forgiveness in order to stay sober , but then when i realized the only reason he agreed to see me is because he wanted something from me , i not only was lonely but very disappointed . dylan : maybe just give it a few days . nikki : no . he 's not ready to forgive me . dylan : what if he never comes around ? nikki : [ sighs ] as painful as that possibility is ... i ca n't allow it to let me ruin my life . i have to find the strength to stay sober on my own . dylan : well , but you do n't have to be on your own . you got me . you got victor -- right . nikki : and victoria and nicholas and all of my grandchildren . i know . you 've all made that abundantly clear . and i so appreciate your love and your support . it gives me strength . i hope you believe me . i hope you believe i can do this . dylan : i believe ... that you can do whatever you put your mind to . hilary : stop looking at me like i 'm the devil incarnate . i 'm simply trying to protect my interests . neil : this is my dream , my foundation -- mine and jack 's . hilary : and if you were honest with yourself , you would admit that your foundation would benefit from me being on the board . i bring energy , experience , and money to the table . it 's a win - win . neil : nobody wins by associating with a blackmailing , backstabbing narcissist like yourself . hilary : you better check yourself , neil , because there is only one way that this ends well for you . neil : oh , really ? yeah ? hilary : hi , honey . devon : hey . hey , baby . hilary : how are you ? devon : i 'm good . i 'm a bit surprised to see you here . the last time you guys were together , things got ugly . neil : um , yeah . i 'm sorry you were caught in the middle of this . devon : well , i still wish that you had n't been the one to tell jack about hilary and ashley 's situation . neil : look at you , putting a squeaky - clean shine on blackmail . is that what you 're doing ? devon : we do n't know what happened , right ? neil : yeah . yeah , we do . hilary used ashley 's illness to get her to step down from running her own research department . devon : i understand why you did it . we both do , okay ? hilary : i went too far , okay ? i see that now . i 'm just so thankful that ashley accepted my very sincere apology . devon : and i hope the three of us can move past it . hilary : i was just telling neil the same thing . no good comes from dredging up the past . ashley : sweetheart , you 're pushing yourself too hard , too fast . jack : your mom 's right . you need time to recover . abby : i already spoke to my doctor . there 's no medical reason why i should n't be here . is this the feedback on my marketing report ? ashley : yes . why ? abby : great . i was hoping to take a look at that today . dr. neville : uh , yes . well , uh [ clears throat ] jack , maybe you 'd like to take a look at the documentation of the brain and addiction . jack : sounds fascinating . dr. neville : yes . well , i might have oversold it . ashley : what are you doing ? abby : my job . ashley : honey ? abby : [ sighs ] ashley : you just lost your baby . nobody expects you to pretend like nothing happened . jack : since the gang 's all here , i wo n't waste any time . hilary , your services on the foundation board will no longer be required , effective immediately . hilary : i was hoping that you and neil might reconsider . jack : why would we want to work with you when you treated my sister that way ? neil : because , jack ... i 'm still willing to work with her . jack : wait . you were the one that -- neil : hilary and i have had a long discussion about this , and i really think that you should hear her out . jack : you were as furious with hilary as i was . why would you be defending her now ? sharon : thank you for getting me the results so quickly . the dna results are on the , uh , cover page . if you have any questions , now 's the time . sharon : i wo n't need any help . i 've seen one of these before . okay . jack : why are you defending hilary ? her behavior toward my sister was abhorrent . neil : jack , i 'm not defending hilary , but hilary has shown some sincere remorse for her actions . jack : and that 's enough for you that she feels bad ? neil : jack , it 's up to you if you determine that you can live with what she did to your sister . i - i 'm stepping out of this one . jack : no , i just want to understand here . you witnessed that behavior . why would you want her anywhere near what we 're trying to build ? neil : um ... hmm . for peace -- for the sake of peace in my own family . and then there 's the business standpoint . i think hilary can make a significant contribution to the foundation 's efforts . [ cell phone vibrates ] neil : ooh . i wish i could stay , but i have a meeting for the foundation . jack , i - i got to go . jack : you go ahead . i 've heard what you have to say . i want to hear hilary 's take on this . hilary : thank you , neil , for speaking on my behalf . jack , i already apologized for what i did to ashley , and , uh ... devon : just tell jack what you told me and neil . hilary : i crossed the line , jack . i do n't even know why i did . jack : i 'll tell you why -- for your own advancement . hilary : i truly believed that it was in ashley 's best interest to step back for her health . she was falling asleep at her desk . jack : so , you did this for ashley 's good , then ? hilary : no , no . i did n't say that . i did it for the sake of the project that i poured my heart and my soul into . this is -- it 's very important to me . it 's personal , just like it is to ashley , and , neville , you know this to be true . dr. neville : oh , i 've heard you use the excuse before . jack : well , if you do n't believe her , then why did you allow her to stick around ? dr. neville : well , because it 's , uh -- it 's what ashley wanted . hilary : exactly . ashley understands because we share this experience . dr. neville 's miraculous treatment -- it gave us our lives back . and i just wanted to do everything that i could to save someone else , too . unfortunately , my passion -- it made me less compassionate to ashley , and i deeply regret that . devon : which plays right in to why hilary wants a seat on the board of directors , jack . hilary : yes . yes , it is . your foundation is going to save lives . you and neil started it to give people hope , to give them a second chance , and that 's all i 'm asking for , jack -- another chance . abby : i would rather be here than at home with baby gifts everywhere , my stepson constantly apologizing . ashley : for what ? abby : i guess for planning the shower that ended up costing me my baby . ashley : oh , no . he feels guilty about that ? he should n't . it was just a horrible , horrible accident . abby : what if it was n't ? ashley : what are you saying ? abby : at first , i thought that it was all my fault , stumbling like that , but , mom , i keep replaying that moment over and over again in my mind . i have been down those stairs a million times . it 's almost like something caused me to trip . ashley : something like what ? abby : something like ... max . stitch : you 're feeling overwhelmed by all this . we all are . it 's impossible to understand why this happened , why abby lost the baby . max : i ca n't stop thinking about it . stitch : remember what we talked about this morning -- that we need to stay strong and keeping moving forward ? that 's why you have to go to school and to soccer and do your homework . that 's why abby went back to work today . max : she probably wanted to get away from me . stitch : hey , hey . that 's not true . max : does abby blame me for her baby being gone ? sage : you told me you were sorry for everything i went through , for the pain i still feel for losing my son . nurse stephens : i am , mrs. newman , but i - i -- sage : please prove that you mean that . nurse stephens : how can i ? sage : by being honest with me . nurse stephens : i have been . sage : have you ? because i just found out sharon had a miscarriage right before she went into fairview . did you know about that ? nurse stephens : there are privacy laws . i ca n't discuss -- sage : now she has a healthy baby boy . how is that possible ? nurse stephens : i have to go . i ca n't -- i ca n't -- sage : please wait . look , i 'm not here to make trouble for you , okay ? i 'm just a mother whose child -- christian was born premature , and he was getting better . and then he suddenly died . i 'm just trying to make sense of all these confusing thoughts in my head . nurse stephens : i do n't -- i do n't know . sage : i 'm begging you for answers because you were there when christian died and you were there when sully was born . your work and your life is to help people . please help me . i 've been to hell and back trying to figure out what happened to my boy . nurse stephens : [ voice breaking ] i 'm sorry . do n't make me . please , do n't -- do n't make me . sage : please ? i need you to tell me the truth . i 'm not gon na stop until i get answers . sharon : oh , my god . no . oh , no , no , no , no , no . oh , my god . oh , my god . nick : sharon ? what 's wrong ? jack : you give me a lot to think about . hilary : thank you for listening , jack . i assume you 'll want to speak to ashley before you make your final decision . i will go and get her . jack : no , no , no . do n't interrupt her time with abby . besides -- dr. neville : you know what she 'd say . jack : yes . ashley has already told me that life is too short to focus on people 's bad behavior . hilary : ashley has been very kind and understanding . she could have let me go at any moment , but -- dr. neville : but being the extraordinary person she is , she 's looking at the bigger picture . jack : what is your take on all this , dr. neville ? dr. neville : well , despite my personal feelings for hilary , there 's no denying she 's proven herself to be a valuable asset . she single - handedly increased publicity for the project , not to mention pushing through fda approval for our drug trial . jack : i 'm still disappointed by what i 've learned . but i would be totally hypocritical if i did n't follow the mission statement of my own foundation and offer a second chance . you are back on the board . hilary : thank you , jack . jack : get right to the work . prove yourself again . and if you cross me or anyone in my family again , there wo n't be another chance . hilary : i wo n't let you down . devon : we really do appreciate this , jack , honestly . why do n't you join us tonight for an early dinner at the club ? jack : no , that wo n't be necessary . thank you . hilary : oh , please , jack . come on . we can share a bottle of sparkling cider as a gesture of good faith . abby : but , mom , he 's made it clear for months that he hates me . he blames me for his mom 's accident , resents me for marrying his father , and he was n't excited about this baby . ashley : okay , but he is the one that wanted the baby shower for you . abby : yeah , just out of nowhere . he went from detesting me to being enthusiastic and sweet . he had stitch plan this surprise baby shower for me with all of you guys involved . i mean , why ? why would he do that ? and every time i 'm around him , i just -- i get this weird feeling . mom , i know how this sounds , but something 's not right . ashley : do you think maybe things are n't gon na be right for you for quite a while , after what you 've been through , honey ? abby : so , you think i 've lost my mind . ashley : i think that you might be overanalyzing max 's behavior , honey . he 's a kid , and their emotions just change with the wind . and you -- abby : and i 'm not pregnant anymore , so what are we gon na blame my mood swings on ? ashley : i think you 're looking for reasons , you know ? you want to know why you lost your baby . it 's normal for you to want to blame somebody . abby : so , you do n't think that max has been acting weird ? you think i 'm just projecting ? ashley : well , do you think it 's possible that you 're projecting ? abby : i guess . ashley : i 'm so sorry , honey . sometimes in life , awful things just happen . it 's okay . stitch : abby does n't blame you for anything . you 've already told her how bad you feel about the accident , and you 've done everything you can to make her feel better . she appreciates that , max . we both do . max : you do n't see her when i 'm alone with her . she -- she 's different . stitch : how ? max : she wo n't look me in the eye . stitch : maybe you 're imagining ? max : i 'm not , dad . she says all the right stuff , but i can tell she does n't want to be around me . stitch : okay . if abby 's acting that way , it 's not because of you , max . max : then why is she like that with me ? stitch : son ... abby and i lost a baby . the pain we feel -- it 's -- it 's just there . sometimes it comes out as tears . sometimes it comes out as yelling . it 's not directed at you , max . max : it sure feels like it is . stitch : i 'm sorry for that . this -- this pain is -- it 's not gon na go away overnight . max : will it ever ? nikki : well , my granddaughter was so sweet , she kept me company while i packed . dylan : you do n't have to rush off . nikki : well , yeah , i do . there are some things i have to take care of now that i am venturing back into the world . thank you for everything . and thank you , my sweet faith . thank you for sharing your home with me . faith : you 're welcome , grandma . nikki : and you , too , my little sully . i 'll miss you . yes , my angel . dylan : do n't forget what you promised . if you need me ... nikki : i got you on my speed - dial . dylan : okay . nikki : okay . bye - bye . bye . faith : bye ! faith : why has grandma really been staying here ? she kept saying it was so we could have a slumber party ... which i would have believed when i was a little kid , but now ... dylan : now that you 're all grown up , you 're not buying it ? she 's sad about your grandpa . faith : 'cause he 's in jail ? dylan : that 's right . but she 's doing better , thanks to you . faith : i 'm kind of sad she 's leaving , but maybe it 's a good thing since grandma and mommy do n't really get along . dylan : what 's that , sully ? faith , your baby brother has a very special request . faith : [ chuckles ] nick : why are you upset ? sharon : um ... i was just ... sitting here , thinking about the baby . nick : the baby ? sully ? sharon : nick , i ... nick : hey , it 's okay . you know you can talk to me about anything . sharon : i was just thinking about abby and her miscarriage and -- and all of her heartbreak , and yours . nick : so , you 're crying for me ? sharon : and sage . nick : [ sighs ] yeah . yeah . it 's been tough . and about abby , it just kind of brought back all the memories of losing christian and ... cassie . but i 'm a newman , you know ? newmans always pull through . sharon : yeah . you do . nick : try not to let yourself get too torn up over this , okay ? you have so much good in your life . you have dylan . you have that amazing baby boy . we have our daughter , who is pretty unbelievable . just be grateful for what you do have , okay ? sage : you have answers , and i need them . please tell me . help me . nurse stephens : i ca n't live with this anymore . i ca n't . sage : you ca n't live with what ? nurse stephens : your baby -- he 's alive . sage : christian ? tell me where he is . tell me where he is ! nurse stephens : that night , after i told you he did n't make it , i took him to fairview . i - i gave him to sharon . sage : sully ? sully 's my baby ? dr. neville : so , jack has agreed to keep hilary on his foundation 's board . ashley : that 's his decision . i 'm too concerned about my daughter to care about stupid hilary 's wheeling and dealing . dr. neville : of course . how is abby ? ashley : she 's in a lot of pain . i wish i could take it away . it makes me feel so powerless that i ca n't . dr. neville : i have no doubt . you gave her everything she needed today and that , in the future , you will continue to know exactly what to do and to say . ashley : thanks . you kind of make me sound fabulous . dr. neville : ashley , all the lives you touch , whether they 're your family or your friendships , your work ... they 're so much better for having you in them . stitch : hey . abby : hey . stitch : hey . i thought you were going to work today . abby : well , my mom practically kicked me out of the lab . what are you guys doing here ? should n't you be at soccer ? stitch : max was n't up for going today . abby : why not ? max : i feel awful about the shower , the baby . abby : you should n't feel bad , max , and you should stop apologizing . max : you say you 're not angry at me , but you are . abby : please do n't do this here . max : admit it . abby : you planned the shower , max . it was a nice thing to do . it 's not your fault that i fell down the stairs . now , can we just drop it ? stitch : [ sighs ] abby : great . great . you 're mad at me now . stitch : i just want to know what 's going on inside your head . faith : and then the prince got back on his magic horse and rode back to his mommy and daddy and sister , who loved him . dylan : and they lived happily ever after , just like us . faith : [ giggles ] dylan : yay ! faith : big hug ! [ both laugh ] faith : mommy ! sharon : hey ! i miss all the fun ? faith : it 's okay . we can do our puppet show again just for you . ca n't we , dylan ? dylan : oh , we can , but i got to take you to kenzie 's for your playdate , remember ? faith : oh , yeah . i 'd better go get ready . talk to you later , okay , mommy ? sharon : okay . it 's a date . dylan : there you go . there you go . ohh . there you go . hi . you okay ? sharon : i guess i just feel a little bad about how i left things with you and nikki . dylan : you know , um , it all worked out . nikki was ready to go home . sharon : you mean she 's gone ? dylan : she is . sharon : [ sighs ] okay . well , do n't -- do n't worry about her , all right ? she knows we 're here if she needs anything . dylan : and , uh , we can get back to normal . sharon : yeah . normal . hey , you know what ? you know what i need ? some breathing room , and i mean a lot of breathing room . dylan : uh , okay . i 'm not sure where you 're going with this . sharon : we should ... take a holiday , a family vacation , you know ? let 's -- let 's go up to door county for a long weekend . dylan : okay . that sounds good . when ? sharon : now . dylan : uh , right -- right now ? sharon : yeah . why not ? nikki 's feeling better . she 's back at home . dylan : i do n't know . sharon : and you know what ? nick and victoria are nearby if she needs anything . i 'm sure that chelsea 's not gon na mind if i take a day or two off work . you know what ? this is exactly what we all need . this is gon na be perfect for all of us . dylan : okay . sage : i do n't understand . how did sharon end up with my baby ? nurse stephens : i took care of the baby secretly and waited for dr. anderson 's call . sage : but sharon knew this whole time ? nurse stephens : no . the doctor had her drugged so heavily , she did n't even know she was never pregnant . we put the baby in sharon 's arms and convinced her that she 'd given birth . sage : what ? ! why in the hell would you do that ? ! nurse stephens : it was anderson -- her obsession with your husband . back then , she wanted to hurt him , to take something precious from him . sage : and you just went along with her ! you did n't care about how many lives you were ruining , did you ? ! nurse stephens : i owed everything to dr. anderson . she saved my life , my career . so i - i did what i was told to do . oh , god . i 'm so sorry . sage : oh , you 're sorry ? you 're sorry ? ! no , you 're not sorry ! you have no soul . go to hell . i 'm going to see my son . nurse stephens : wait . sage : what ? what do you possibly want to say to me right now ? nurse stephens : there 's something else . sharon had a dna test done . she got the results today . sage : so sharon knows ? stitch : i keep telling max that you do n't resent him for throwing the shower , but you do resent him , do n't you ? abby : you want to know what i resent ? how he keeps talking about how he feels guilty , what he did wrong , how he 's worried that i 'm mad at him . he 's making this terrible situation about him . why ? stitch : because he 's a kid , abby . that 's what they do . that 's how they process things . i know -- i know this is hard for you to deal with right now , but we need to keep reassuring him . we ca n't let him get dragged down by our pain . abby : right . yeah . yeah . we should just forget about what we 're going through . we would n't want max to feel bad about anything . stitch : okay , that 's not what i 'm saying . abby : you know what ? i - i just need some air . nikki : hey , neil . please , sit down . neil : thank you . you know , i 've been thinking a lot about you , and i 'm wondering , how are you holding up with everything ? nikki : ahh . well ... not that great . i fell off the wagon again . neil : ohh . no . i am so sorry to hear that , nikki . what can i do ? nikki : well , it was okay . jack was there for me . he put me back on the road to recovery . neil : yeah , jack . of course he did . nikki : i am so glad to have two friends like you who really care about me . neil : just remember , we will always be there for you . nikki : and i am so proud of you about this foundation that you started . so many people are gon na be helped -- i mean , people who have just been tossed away . and i think everybody deserves the opportunity to start over . neil : not everyone . dylan : so , nikki decided it was time for her to be on her own and go home . nick : yeah , well , thanks for the update . i 'll swing by and check on mom -- make sure she 's not lonely . dylan : that 'd be great . thanks . nick : something else on your mind ? dylan : uh , yeah . sharon suggested we take a family trip . we leave tonight for a few days . would you be cool if faith came ? i know it 's your weekend . you 're supposed to have her with you and sage . nick : no , man . of course . we 'll just switch weekends . no worries . dylan : oh . nick : i 'm kind of surprised , though . i saw sharon earlier . she did n't mention anything about going away . why the sudden change in plans ? sharon : we are gon na go away for a little while -- just our little family . and we are going to have a wonderful time , like nothing 's changed . speaking of changing ... i 'd better not forget your diaper cream . [ baby crying ] [ crying stops ] sage : christian ? ohh . [ crying ] sage : ohh . [ smooching ] hi . hi . ohh . it 's you . nikki : well , sorry to pull you away from your party . jack : no , it was n't a party , and ... you look -- nikki : sober ? because i am . and all of your phone calls and messages over the last few days -- they were a lifeline . jack : yeah . look , if i came off a pest , good -- i meant to be a pest , and i have no intention of stopping calling you . nikki : well , i 'm glad to hear that . even though i am doing better than the last time i saw you , i could use some reinforcement . in fact , i 'm on my way to a meeting right now . jack : ooh . i like the sound of that . well , we will talk soon . nikki : i 'm counting on it . hilary : jack . are you sure we ca n't get you anything else ? jack : no , no , no . i 'm fine . thanks . hilary : well , i better get back to work . jack , you 'll see . i 'm gon na help you and neil take your foundation to new heights . devon : i never got a chance to thank you for backing hilary and urging jack to keep her on the board . i appreciate it . neil : what did you say -- `` backing `` ? devon : yeah . neil : son , your wife gave me no choice . she blackmailed me , just like she blackmailed ashley . ashley : thank you . oh , my god . a male patient in our drug trial has just suffered an adverse reaction to the medication . this is a huge setback . dr. neville : what patient ? ashley : look at his profile . okay . dr. neville : that 's inexplicable . ashley : i know , but look at his stats . dr. neville : no , i - i - i -- i mean , they 're stellar up to this point . he was doing remarkably well . that does n't make any sense . the regimen should have worked . ashley : yeah , but it did n't . so , what now ? max : where 's abby ? stitch : she took off . max : because of me . she hates me . stitch : hey , hey . you 're wrong , max . she could never hate you . come here . nick : i think it 's great you guys are grabbing some time to spend together . in fact , i 'm probably the inspiration for this happening . dylan : [ chuckles ] really ? nick : oh , yeah . yeah . dylan : right . nick : i , uh -- i saw sharon . i told her she needed to embrace all the good things in her life . dylan : well , that 's good advice . i mean , i got to say , i 'm excited , you know ? this is my first family trip as a dad . nick : better late than never . sage : hey , baby love . mommy 's here . yeah . [ chuckles ] nothing 's ever gon na come between us ever again . sharon : sage , what are you doing here ? sage : [ sighs ] i know . [ next_on ] nick : what 's wrong ? victoria : someone 's trying to steal my baby . meredith : excuse me . who authorized you to use my phone ? sage : i want to see in black and white what you were keeping from me , you cold , selfish , vicious monster . [ car horn ] | nikki moved out of dylan 's house after telling him that she knows victor may never forgive her , but she must go on with her life . hilary blackmails neil so she can keep her seat on the board of the winters - abbott foundation , but jack makes it clear that if she disrespects his family again , she will lose her seat on the board . | <s>[INST] nick : sage ? sage : huh ? i 'm sorry . what were you saying ? nick : it 's okay . i 'm sure you 're preoccupied . probably thinking about sharon and -- sage : why would you say that ? nick : [ chuckles ] well , you did n't let me finish . i was gon na say you probably were thinking about sharon and chelsea and fashion and marketing . look , you got to just relax . i 'm sure they are gon na love whatever ideas you 're cooking up . how is work going ? sage : good . i actually have some stuff i need to do . i got to go . nick : uh , okay . yeah . knock 'em dead . sage : hey . i want to tell you something . i love you . you know that ? nick : yeah . sage : i believe in us and our future . and i 'm still hoping that one day we 're gon na have the family we were meant to have . nick : that makes two of us . knock 'em dead , hmm ? sharon : you are sullivan mcavoy . you are my son . you are dylan 's son . and i -- you have to be . yeah . dylan : oh , hey . uh , sorry . i did n't mean to scare you . sharon : oh , i guess i 've just been a little anxious . dylan : oh , there he is . well , i guess , partly , that is my fault . you 've been on edge ever since nikki moved in . sharon : um , dylan ... dylan : hi . hi . yes ? do you want her to leave ? sharon : well , i know you need to look after your mom , but having her here and looking over my shoulder , judging me all the time -- it 's just too much . and she 's feeling fine now . is n't it time she go back home ? nikki : gladly . dylan : um ... okay . i know it has n't been the easiest , all of us living under the same roof . nikki : it 's been impossible . dylan : but we should n't make a hasty decision . sharon : hasty ? nikki : if i was looking for peace and relaxation , the last place i would find it is with her . dylan : can we try to discuss this like adults ? nikki : it 's actually sharon 's attitude that starts everything . dylan : hey , can you guys remember that sully 's right here and faith is in her room upstairs ? [ baby fusses ] [ cell phone rings ] dylan : what ? hi , baby . sharon : hello ? mrs. mcavoy , your dna test results are in . sharon : thank you . i 'll be right there . nikki : problem , sharon ? stitch : let 's go , max . you have to go to soccer , and it 'll look bad if the new kid 's late for practice , all right ? max : i do n't want to go anywhere else or see anyone else . stitch : why not , buddy ? max : because of what happened to abby . ashley : i do n't think i 'm ever gon na over the sight of seeing abby fall down the stairs . dr. neville : it was devastating . jack : did you see her this morning ? ashley : no . i thought i 'd give her some time to rest . but i saw her yesterday after she got home from the hospital . jack : and ? how was she ? ashley : she 's trying to be strong . it 's gon na be a while before she comes to terms with this miscarriage . jack : if there 's anything the family can do to help , let us know . ashley : by the way , it was so sweet of kyle to fly in for the day . jack : yeah . kyle misses a lot , being in new york , but he was n't gon na miss seeing abby . by the way , he is still concerned about her . ashley : so am i . dr. neville : she is strong . ashley : i know . i know . but i know from firsthand experience that losing a child can mess with your mind . i 'm very concerned about her . abby : do n't be . i 'm here and ready to work . hilary : neil . what are you doing here ? neil : i 'm meeting with jack . foundation business . hilary : so , he is n't just here to see ashley . he 's gon na kick me off the board , and he wants you present to do it . neil : where is he ? hilary : he 's in the office with ashley and neville . consider this carefully , neil , because unless you want to be exposed as the man who kidnapped me , you 're gon na help me convince jack to keep me on that board . neil : i would rather break all the glass in this lab and eat every single shard . hilary : your choice . but the clock is ticking , so you need to decide -- would you rather save me ... or yourself ? sharon : no problem . but i have to do something for chelsea , so i have to go . i 'll see you later . dylan : okay . nikki : bye , sharon . dylan : sorry about that . nikki : [ sighs ] dylan : there 's got to be a way to make things less ... nikki : adversarial ? dylan : yeah . it should n't be that difficult . nikki : well , i apologize for my part . the truth is , even before i overheard sharon badgering you to get me out of here -- dylan : she was n't really badgering . nikki : well , i had already decided it was time for me to go . dylan : are you sure you 're ready for that ? nikki : you 're such a good son . yes . i am definitely ready for it . dylan : nikki ... nikki : look , i wo n't be far . my house is on the same property . if i need you , i call you . dylan : well , you did n't call me the last time . nikki : and i learned my lesson . so i 'm gon na go back . dylan : okay . well , just tell me why you really want to leave . nikki : honey , do n't worry . i 'm not trying to run away from your eagle eye . i 'm not hiding anything , really . i just -- i 'm trying to accept where i am now . dylan : but you told you were lonely . nikki : yes , i am . that 's why i went to see victor yesterday , hoping he would forgive me . because all this time , i thought that i needed his forgiveness in order to stay sober , but then when i realized the only reason he agreed to see me is because he wanted something from me , i not only was lonely but very disappointed . dylan : maybe just give it a few days . nikki : no . he 's not ready to forgive me . dylan : what if he never comes around ? nikki : [ sighs ] as painful as that possibility is ... i ca n't allow it to let me ruin my life . i have to find the strength to stay sober on my own . dylan : well , but you do n't have to be on your own . you got me . you got victor -- right . nikki : and victoria and nicholas and all of my grandchildren . i know . you 've all made that abundantly clear . and i so appreciate your love and your support . it gives me strength . i hope you believe me . i hope you believe i can do this . dylan : i believe ... that you can do whatever you put your mind to . hilary : stop looking at me like i 'm the devil incarnate . i 'm simply trying to protect my interests . neil : this is my dream , my foundation -- mine and jack 's . hilary : and if you were honest with yourself , you would admit that your foundation would benefit from me being on the board . i bring energy , experience , and money to the table . it 's a win - win . neil : nobody wins by associating with a blackmailing , backstabbing narcissist like yourself . hilary : you better check yourself , neil , because there is only one way that this ends well for you . neil : oh , really ? yeah ? hilary : hi , honey . devon : hey . hey , baby . hilary : how are you ? devon : i 'm good . i 'm a bit surprised to see you here . the last time you guys were together , things got ugly . neil : um , yeah . i 'm sorry you were caught in the middle of this . devon : well , i still wish that you had n't been the one to tell jack about hilary and ashley 's situation . neil : look at you , putting a squeaky - clean shine on blackmail . is that what you 're doing ? devon : we do n't know what happened , right ? neil : yeah . yeah , we do . hilary used ashley 's illness to get her to step down from running her own research department . devon : i understand why you did it . we both do , okay ? hilary : i went too far , okay ? i see that now . i 'm just so thankful that ashley accepted my very sincere apology . devon : and i hope the three of us can move past it . hilary : i was just telling neil the same thing . no good comes from dredging up the past . ashley : sweetheart , you 're pushing yourself too hard , too fast . jack : your mom 's right . you need time to recover . abby : i already spoke to my doctor . there 's no medical reason why i should n't be here . is this the feedback on my marketing report ? ashley : yes . why ? abby : great . i was hoping to take a look at that today . dr. neville : uh , yes . well , uh [ clears throat ] jack , maybe you 'd like to take a look at the documentation of the brain and addiction . jack : sounds fascinating . dr. neville : yes . well , i might have oversold it . ashley : what are you doing ? abby : my job . ashley : honey ? abby : [ sighs ] ashley : you just lost your baby . nobody expects you to pretend like nothing happened . jack : since the gang 's all here , i wo n't waste any time . hilary , your services on the foundation board will no longer be required , effective immediately . hilary : i was hoping that you and neil might reconsider . jack : why would we want to work with you when you treated my sister that way ? neil : because , jack ... i 'm still willing to work with her . jack : wait . you were the one that -- neil : hilary and i have had a long discussion about this , and i really think that you should hear her out . jack : you were as furious with hilary as i was . why would you be defending her now ? sharon : thank you for getting me the results so quickly . the dna results are on the , uh , cover page . if you have any questions , now 's the time . sharon : i wo n't need any help . i 've seen one of these before . okay . jack : why are you defending hilary ? her behavior toward my sister was abhorrent . neil : jack , i 'm not defending hilary , but hilary has shown some sincere remorse for her actions . jack : and that 's enough for you that she feels bad ? neil : jack , it 's up to you if you determine that you can live with what she did to your sister . i - i 'm stepping out of this one . jack : no , i just want to understand here . you witnessed that behavior . why would you want her anywhere near what we 're trying to build ? neil : um ... hmm . for peace -- for the sake of peace in my own family . and then there 's the business standpoint . i think hilary can make a significant contribution to the foundation 's efforts . [ cell phone vibrates ] neil : ooh . i wish i could stay , but i have a meeting for the foundation . jack , i - i got to go . jack : you go ahead . i 've heard what you have to say . i want to hear hilary 's take on this . hilary : thank you , neil , for speaking on my behalf . jack , i already apologized for what i did to ashley , and , uh ... devon : just tell jack what you told me and neil . hilary : i crossed the line , jack . i do n't even know why i did . jack : i 'll tell you why -- for your own advancement . hilary : i truly believed that it was in ashley 's best interest to step back for her health . she was falling asleep at her desk . jack : so , you did this for ashley 's good , then ? hilary : no , no . i did n't say that . i did it for the sake of the project that i poured my heart and my soul into . this is -- it 's very important to me . it 's personal , just like it is to ashley , and , neville , you know this to be true . dr. neville : oh , i 've heard you use the excuse before . jack : well , if you do n't believe her , then why did you allow her to stick around ? dr. neville : well , because it 's , uh -- it 's what ashley wanted . hilary : exactly . ashley understands because we share this experience . dr. neville 's miraculous treatment -- it gave us our lives back . and i just wanted to do everything that i could to save someone else , too . unfortunately , my passion -- it made me less compassionate to ashley , and i deeply regret that . devon : which plays right in to why hilary wants a seat on the board of directors , jack . hilary : yes . yes , it is . your foundation is going to save lives . you and neil started it to give people hope , to give them a second chance , and that 's all i 'm asking for , jack -- another chance . abby : i would rather be here than at home with baby gifts everywhere , my stepson constantly apologizing . ashley : for what ? abby : i guess for planning the shower that ended up costing me my baby . ashley : oh , no . he feels guilty about that ? he should n't . it was just a horrible , horrible accident . abby : what if it was n't ? ashley : what are you saying ? abby : at first , i thought that it was all my fault , stumbling like that , but , mom , i keep replaying that moment over and over again in my mind . i have been down those stairs a million times . it 's almost like something caused me to trip . ashley : something like what ? abby : something like ... max . stitch : you 're feeling overwhelmed by all this . we all are . it 's impossible to understand why this happened , why abby lost the baby . max : i ca n't stop thinking about it . stitch : remember what we talked about this morning -- that we need to stay strong and keeping moving forward ? that 's why you have to go to school and to soccer and do your homework . that 's why abby went back to work today . max : she probably wanted to get away from me . stitch : hey , hey . that 's not true . max : does abby blame me for her baby being gone ? sage : you told me you were sorry for everything i went through , for the pain i still feel for losing my son . nurse stephens : i am , mrs. newman , but i - i -- sage : please prove that you mean that . nurse stephens : how can i ? sage : by being honest with me . nurse stephens : i have been . sage : have you ? because i just found out sharon had a miscarriage right before she went into fairview . did you know about that ? nurse stephens : there are privacy laws . i ca n't discuss -- sage : now she has a healthy baby boy . how is that possible ? nurse stephens : i have to go . i ca n't -- i ca n't -- sage : please wait . look , i 'm not here to make trouble for you , okay ? i 'm just a mother whose child -- christian was born premature , and he was getting better . and then he suddenly died . i 'm just trying to make sense of all these confusing thoughts in my head . nurse stephens : i do n't -- i do n't know . sage : i 'm begging you for answers because you were there when christian died and you were there when sully was born . your work and your life is to help people . please help me . i 've been to hell and back trying to figure out what happened to my boy . nurse stephens : [ voice breaking ] i 'm sorry . do n't make me . please , do n't -- do n't make me . sage : please ? i need you to tell me the truth . i 'm not gon na stop until i get answers . sharon : oh , my god . no . oh , no , no , no , no , no . oh , my god . oh , my god . nick : sharon ? what 's wrong ? jack : you give me a lot to think about . hilary : thank you for listening , jack . i assume you 'll want to speak to ashley before you make your final decision . i will go and get her . jack : no , no , no . do n't interrupt her time with abby . besides -- dr. neville : you know what she 'd say . jack : yes . ashley has already told me that life is too short to focus on people 's bad behavior . hilary : ashley has been very kind and understanding . she could have let me go at any moment , but -- dr. neville : but being the extraordinary person she is , she 's looking at the bigger picture . jack : what is your take on all this , dr. neville ? dr. neville : well , despite my personal feelings for hilary , there 's no denying she 's proven herself to be a valuable asset . she single - handedly increased publicity for the project , not to mention pushing through fda approval for our drug trial . jack : i 'm still disappointed by what i 've learned . but i would be totally hypocritical if i did n't follow the mission statement of my own foundation and offer a second chance . you are back on the board . hilary : thank you , jack . jack : get right to the work . prove yourself again . and if you cross me or anyone in my family again , there wo n't be another chance . hilary : i wo n't let you down . devon : we really do appreciate this , jack , honestly . why do n't you join us tonight for an early dinner at the club ? jack : no , that wo n't be necessary . thank you . hilary : oh , please , jack . come on . we can share a bottle of sparkling cider as a gesture of good faith . abby : but , mom , he 's made it clear for months that he hates me . he blames me for his mom 's accident , resents me for marrying his father , and he was n't excited about this baby . ashley : okay , but he is the one that wanted the baby shower for you . abby : yeah , just out of nowhere . he went from detesting me to being enthusiastic and sweet . he had stitch plan this surprise baby shower for me with all of you guys involved . i mean , why ? why would he do that ? and every time i 'm around him , i just -- i get this weird feeling . mom , i know how this sounds , but something 's not right . ashley : do you think maybe things are n't gon na be right for you for quite a while , after what you 've been through , honey ? abby : so , you think i 've lost my mind . ashley : i think that you might be overanalyzing max 's behavior , honey . he 's a kid , and their emotions just change with the wind . and you -- abby : and i 'm not pregnant anymore , so what are we gon na blame my mood swings on ? ashley : i think you 're looking for reasons , you know ? you want to know why you lost your baby . it 's normal for you to want to blame somebody . abby : so , you do n't think that max has been acting weird ? you think i 'm just projecting ? ashley : well , do you think it 's possible that you 're projecting ? abby : i guess . ashley : i 'm so sorry , honey . sometimes in life , awful things just happen . it 's okay . stitch : abby does n't blame you for anything . you 've already told her how bad you feel about the accident , and you 've done everything you can to make her feel better . she appreciates that , max . we both do . max : you do n't see her when i 'm alone with her . she -- she 's different . stitch : how ? max : she wo n't look me in the eye . stitch : maybe you 're imagining ? max : i 'm not , dad . she says all the right stuff , but i can tell she does n't want to be around me . stitch : okay . if abby 's acting that way , it 's not because of you , max . max : then why is she like that with me ? stitch : son ... abby and i lost a baby . the pain we feel -- it 's -- it 's just there . sometimes it comes out as tears . sometimes it comes out as yelling . it 's not directed at you , max . max : it sure feels like it is . stitch : i 'm sorry for that . this -- this pain is -- it 's not gon na go away overnight . max : will it ever ? nikki : well , my granddaughter was so sweet , she kept me company while i packed . dylan : you do n't have to rush off . nikki : well , yeah , i do . there are some things i have to take care of now that i am venturing back into the world . thank you for everything . and thank you , my sweet faith . thank you for sharing your home with me . faith : you 're welcome , grandma . nikki : and you , too , my little sully . i 'll miss you . yes , my angel . dylan : do n't forget what you promised . if you need me ... nikki : i got you on my speed - dial . dylan : okay . nikki : okay . bye - bye . bye . faith : bye ! faith : why has grandma really been staying here ? she kept saying it was so we could have a slumber party ... which i would have believed when i was a little kid , but now ... dylan : now that you 're all grown up , you 're not buying it ? she 's sad about your grandpa . faith : 'cause he 's in jail ? dylan : that 's right . but she 's doing better , thanks to you . faith : i 'm kind of sad she 's leaving , but maybe it 's a good thing since grandma and mommy do n't really get along . dylan : what 's that , sully ? faith , your baby brother has a very special request . faith : [ chuckles ] nick : why are you upset ? sharon : um ... i was just ... sitting here , thinking about the baby . nick : the baby ? sully ? sharon : nick , i ... nick : hey , it 's okay . you know you can talk to me about anything . sharon : i was just thinking about abby and her miscarriage and -- and all of her heartbreak , and yours . nick : so , you 're crying for me ? sharon : and sage . nick : [ sighs ] yeah . yeah . it 's been tough . and about abby , it just kind of brought back all the memories of losing christian and ... cassie . but i 'm a newman , you know ? newmans always pull through . sharon : yeah . you do . nick : try not to let yourself get too torn up over this , okay ? you have so much good in your life . you have dylan . you have that amazing baby boy . we have our daughter , who is pretty unbelievable . just be grateful for what you do have , okay ? sage : you have answers , and i need them . please tell me . help me . nurse stephens : i ca n't live with this anymore . i ca n't . sage : you ca n't live with what ? nurse stephens : your baby -- he 's alive . sage : christian ? tell me where he is . tell me where he is ! nurse stephens : that night , after i told you he did n't make it , i took him to fairview . i - i gave him to sharon . sage : sully ? sully 's my baby ? dr. neville : so , jack has agreed to keep hilary on his foundation 's board . ashley : that 's his decision . i 'm too concerned about my daughter to care about stupid hilary 's wheeling and dealing . dr. neville : of course . how is abby ? ashley : she 's in a lot of pain . i wish i could take it away . it makes me feel so powerless that i ca n't . dr. neville : i have no doubt . you gave her everything she needed today and that , in the future , you will continue to know exactly what to do and to say . ashley : thanks . you kind of make me sound fabulous . dr. neville : ashley , all the lives you touch , whether they 're your family or your friendships , your work ... they 're so much better for having you in them . stitch : hey . abby : hey . stitch : hey . i thought you were going to work today . abby : well , my mom practically kicked me out of the lab . what are you guys doing here ? should n't you be at soccer ? stitch : max was n't up for going today . abby : why not ? max : i feel awful about the shower , the baby . abby : you should n't feel bad , max , and you should stop apologizing . max : you say you 're not angry at me , but you are . abby : please do n't do this here . max : admit it . abby : you planned the shower , max . it was a nice thing to do . it 's not your fault that i fell down the stairs . now , can we just drop it ? stitch : [ sighs ] abby : great . great . you 're mad at me now . stitch : i just want to know what 's going on inside your head . faith : and then the prince got back on his magic horse and rode back to his mommy and daddy and sister , who loved him . dylan : and they lived happily ever after , just like us . faith : [ giggles ] dylan : yay ! faith : big hug ! [ both laugh ] faith : mommy ! sharon : hey ! i miss all the fun ? faith : it 's okay . we can do our puppet show again just for you . ca n't we , dylan ? dylan : oh , we can , but i got to take you to kenzie 's for your playdate , remember ? faith : oh , yeah . i 'd better go get ready . talk to you later , okay , mommy ? sharon : okay . it 's a date . dylan : there you go . there you go . ohh . there you go . hi . you okay ? sharon : i guess i just feel a little bad about how i left things with you and nikki . dylan : you know , um , it all worked out . nikki was ready to go home . sharon : you mean she 's gone ? dylan : she is . sharon : [ sighs ] okay . well , do n't -- do n't worry about her , all right ? she knows we 're here if she needs anything . dylan : and , uh , we can get back to normal . sharon : yeah . normal . hey , you know what ? you know what i need ? some breathing room , and i mean a lot of breathing room . dylan : uh , okay . i 'm not sure where you 're going with this . sharon : we should ... take a holiday , a family vacation , you know ? let 's -- let 's go up to door county for a long weekend . dylan : okay . that sounds good . when ? sharon : now . dylan : uh , right -- right now ? sharon : yeah . why not ? nikki 's feeling better . she 's back at home . dylan : i do n't know . sharon : and you know what ? nick and victoria are nearby if she needs anything . i 'm sure that chelsea 's not gon na mind if i take a day or two off work . you know what ? this is exactly what we all need . this is gon na be perfect for all of us . dylan : okay . sage : i do n't understand . how did sharon end up with my baby ? nurse stephens : i took care of the baby secretly and waited for dr. anderson 's call . sage : but sharon knew this whole time ? nurse stephens : no . the doctor had her drugged so heavily , she did n't even know she was never pregnant . we put the baby in sharon 's arms and convinced her that she 'd given birth . sage : what ? ! why in the hell would you do that ? ! nurse stephens : it was anderson -- her obsession with your husband . back then , she wanted to hurt him , to take something precious from him . sage : and you just went along with her ! you did n't care about how many lives you were ruining , did you ? ! nurse stephens : i owed everything to dr. anderson . she saved my life , my career . so i - i did what i was told to do . oh , god . i 'm so sorry . sage : oh , you 're sorry ? you 're sorry ? ! no , you 're not sorry ! you have no soul . go to hell . i 'm going to see my son . nurse stephens : wait . sage : what ? what do you possibly want to say to me right now ? nurse stephens : there 's something else . sharon had a dna test done . she got the results today . sage : so sharon knows ? stitch : i keep telling max that you do n't resent him for throwing the shower , but you do resent him , do n't you ? abby : you want to know what i resent ? how he keeps talking about how he feels guilty , what he did wrong , how he 's worried that i 'm mad at him . he 's making this terrible situation about him . why ? stitch : because he 's a kid , abby . that 's what they do . that 's how they process things . i know -- i know this is hard for you to deal with right now , but we need to keep reassuring him . we ca n't let him get dragged down by our pain . abby : right . yeah . yeah . we should just forget about what we 're going through . we would n't want max to feel bad about anything . stitch : okay , that 's not what i 'm saying . abby : you know what ? i - i just need some air . nikki : hey , neil . please , sit down . neil : thank you . you know , i 've been thinking a lot about you , and i 'm wondering , how are you holding up with everything ? nikki : ahh . well ... not that great . i fell off the wagon again . neil : ohh . no . i am so sorry to hear that , nikki . what can i do ? nikki : well , it was okay . jack was there for me . he put me back on the road to recovery . neil : yeah , jack . of course he did . nikki : i am so glad to have two friends like you who really care about me . neil : just remember , we will always be there for you . nikki : and i am so proud of you about this foundation that you started . so many people are gon na be helped -- i mean , people who have just been tossed away . and i think everybody deserves the opportunity to start over . neil : not everyone . dylan : so , nikki decided it was time for her to be on her own and go home . nick : yeah , well , thanks for the update . i 'll swing by and check on mom -- make sure she 's not lonely . dylan : that 'd be great . thanks . nick : something else on your mind ? dylan : uh , yeah . sharon suggested we take a family trip . we leave tonight for a few days . would you be cool if faith came ? i know it 's your weekend . you 're supposed to have her with you and sage . nick : no , man . of course . we 'll just switch weekends . no worries . dylan : oh . nick : i 'm kind of surprised , though . i saw sharon earlier . she did n't mention anything about going away . why the sudden change in plans ? sharon : we are gon na go away for a little while -- just our little family . and we are going to have a wonderful time , like nothing 's changed . speaking of changing ... i 'd better not forget your diaper cream . [ baby crying ] [ crying stops ] sage : christian ? ohh . [ crying ] sage : ohh . [ smooching ] hi . hi . ohh . it 's you . nikki : well , sorry to pull you away from your party . jack : no , it was n't a party , and ... you look -- nikki : sober ? because i am . and all of your phone calls and messages over the last few days -- they were a lifeline . jack : yeah . look , if i came off a pest , good -- i meant to be a pest , and i have no intention of stopping calling you . nikki : well , i 'm glad to hear that . even though i am doing better than the last time i saw you , i could use some reinforcement . in fact , i 'm on my way to a meeting right now . jack : ooh . i like the sound of that . well , we will talk soon . nikki : i 'm counting on it . hilary : jack . are you sure we ca n't get you anything else ? jack : no , no , no . i 'm fine . thanks . hilary : well , i better get back to work . jack , you 'll see . i 'm gon na help you and neil take your foundation to new heights . devon : i never got a chance to thank you for backing hilary and urging jack to keep her on the board . i appreciate it . neil : what did you say -- `` backing `` ? devon : yeah . neil : son , your wife gave me no choice . she blackmailed me , just like she blackmailed ashley . ashley : thank you . oh , my god . a male patient in our drug trial has just suffered an adverse reaction to the medication . this is a huge setback . dr. neville : what patient ? ashley : look at his profile . okay . dr. neville : that 's inexplicable . ashley : i know , but look at his stats . dr. neville : no , i - i - i -- i mean , they 're stellar up to this point . he was doing remarkably well . that does n't make any sense . the regimen should have worked . ashley : yeah , but it did n't . so , what now ? max : where 's abby ? stitch : she took off . max : because of me . she hates me . stitch : hey , hey . you 're wrong , max . she could never hate you . come here . nick : i think it 's great you guys are grabbing some time to spend together . in fact , i 'm probably the inspiration for this happening . dylan : [ chuckles ] really ? nick : oh , yeah . yeah . dylan : right . nick : i , uh -- i saw sharon . i told her she needed to embrace all the good things in her life . dylan : well , that 's good advice . i mean , i got to say , i 'm excited , you know ? this is my first family trip as a dad . nick : better late than never . sage : hey , baby love . mommy 's here . yeah . [ chuckles ] nothing 's ever gon na come between us ever again . sharon : sage , what are you doing here ? sage : [ sighs ] i know . [ next_on ] nick : what 's wrong ? victoria : someone 's trying to steal my baby . meredith : excuse me . who authorized you to use my phone ? sage : i want to see in black and white what you were keeping from me , you cold , selfish , vicious monster .

jack : morning . i want all of phyllis ' belongings boxed and off the premises as soon as possible . and get me the latest financial research on newman enterprises -- now . billy : i hate it . victoria : it 's the hero shot , billy . open on the product . it 's better than opening on the model . billy : is it really only two options , vicki ? victoria : well , clearly , the objective here is to focus on brand loyalty . billy : oh , loyalty ? you say that with emphasis , like i do n't understand what that means . that 's very subtle and classy . cane : wow . you know , this is almost as much fun as it was shooting the damn thing with the two of you . billy : why do n't we focus on this and not judge me because of it ? victoria : we 're trying to speak to the market directly in a language that they 're familiar with . we 're trying to create a comfort level . billy : by pandering to the boring same old , same old ? why do n't we do something fun and different and new and maybe even exciting ? how 'bout that ? victoria : oh , yeah , because new and exciting is always better . maybe to you , billy , but you 're not the demo that we 're trying to reach at all . cane : you know , i do n't want to interrupt this love affair that you two guys have , but , you know , we are trying to cut this commercial , and since the two of you ca n't make a decision , i 'm gon na do it for you . billy : oh , no . that 's not gon na happen . victoria : no , not at all . that 's one thing billy and i can agree on . jill : oh , oh , oh . travis : oh , sorry . jill : oh . oh , travis ! fancy meeting you here . whew ! i guess we share the same jogging path , huh ? travis : yeah , looks like it . jill : yeah . travis : well , enjoy your run . billy : um , you know what ? i was just about to rehydrate . boy , and i admire your stamina . i 'm sure that victoria does , too . travis : is there something you want to say to me , jill ? jill : yeah , there is . and i have been waiting for just the perfect moment . i think that this is it . neil : hey . lily : dad , hey . you managed to make it in here without being attacked by reporters . that 's progress . neil : yeah , yeah . i thought things were gon na calm down , but all i 've been doing is fielding calls -- you know , handing out a lot of , `` we do n't comment on the personal lives of our board members . `` devon : even when the board members make their private lives public . lily : well , if you do n't give the press traction , they have no choice but to back off . neil : that 's what i 'm hoping . but the foundation is still so new . you know , i was worried that we 're not established enough to take this hit . i think as long as no one else is talking to the press , we 're gon na be okay . tell us your side , phyllis ! phyllis : no comment . which brother was better in bed ? phyllis : i said , `` no comment . `` we just want your story . phyllis : is that the reason why you were stalking out this side door and not in the main -- because you knew i was gon na be here ? denise ! denise ! all right . you know what ? since you are doing the lord 's work , i will give you all the gory details -- all of them . ashley : jackie . jack : someone 's idea of a sick joke . ashley : that was billy . jack : to mock me . ashley : no . it was all self - loathing and self - pity and shame . he said it was what really mattered -- that phyllis loves you . jack : well , billy 's wrong . he 's made an entire career of being wrong . ashley : he swore it was the truth . jack : phyllis has no business here -- not in name , not in person , not in my home , not in this company , not in our family . do n't you dare try to convince me otherwise . ashley : jack , stop . i 'm gon na call maintenance . it 'll be gone before lunch . come on . jack : you always look out for me . ashley : jackie , that 's what family does . jack : tell our little brother that . ashley : how are we gon na move on from this ? jack : oh , i 'm moving on . i got plans -- big plans -- for me , for the company . and playing nice is no part of them . people are gon na realize they ca n't walk all over me with this company anymore . ashley : that makes me kind of nervous , jack . jack : the people who need to be nervous are not in this room . ashley : so , you 're talking about billy and phyllis , right ? jack : oh , i 'm not stopping with them . victor and jill are on my list , too , and anybody who had a role in this insult . they 're gon na pay a heavy price . travis : well , now that we 're hydrated ... jill : ahh . travis : ... tell me about this proposition . jill : oh , you 're eager . travis : curious . jill : you have many positive personality points . i noticed that when i met you at victoria 's , and i had to know more , so i did my research . you were on the wall street fast track , and then you gave it all up to buy a bar , and , if i might say so , not a very nice bar . travis : well , i think that being able to live with myself is worth more than a fat bank account . jill : yep . yep . happiness does equal self - respect . travis : yeah . for me , it does . jill : it does for me , too . but , of course , we have to remember that every once in a while , happiness can go hand in hand with a fat bank account , huh ? travis : from my experience , it just does n't work out that way . jill : really ? well , you might find this interesting , then . my company is looking for somebody like you -- somebody ... ethical , energetic , exciting , and when i look at you , i see all those things . travis : i think brash & sassy ! is fully staffed . jill : oh , i 'm talking bigger than that -- much bigger . i 'm talking chancellor -- overseeing several divisions . travis : really ? just from a quick look at my résumé ? jill : i 'm a keen judge of talent . travis : [ exhales sharply ] sounds like a big job . jill : yeah , it 's a huge job . i mean , can you imagine the responsibilities ? whoa . but the compensation package is spectacular . travis : hmm . and there 'd be a lot of travel , i assume ? jill : first class all the way . travis : yeah . and chancellor industries -- they have offices everywhere . let me guess -- i 'd be based in hong kong , as far away from victoria as possible . jill : [ laughs ] billy : i 'm pretty sure your job title is not `` decider . `` victoria : no , it is n't . cane : okay , but it is when the only thing you two can decide about is the fact that you do n't want to be in the same room together . okay , this is not how you run a company . if you guys want to snipe each other , please , please just do it on your own time . we are trying to cut this commercial . billy : [ chuckles ] is it the kids ? what 's wrong ? victoria : no , it 's nothing . billy : no , it 's something . i just saw your eyes do that thing . victoria : what thing ? billy : what is it , vicki ? victoria : phyllis is about to give a statement on gc buzz . lily : dad . neil : what ? lily : you have to see this . neil : what 's wrong ? lily : when we said no more press about the affair , i guess gc buzz did n't get the memo . neil : jack needs to back away from the press . lily : no . it 's not jack . phyllis : this is not how i wanted to do this . but there seems to be some rumors circulating about my personal life . apparently , people want to get in to my business . therefore , i am here to set the record straight . ashley : jackie , revenge is useless . you know that . it just causes more pain and more misery . revenge is what sent phyllis down the sewer , and i do n't want it to happen to you . jack : oh , you give phyllis much too much credit . revenge was n't what put her in billy 's bed . she was n't fighting some noble cause . this is who she is . this is what she is . same thing with billy . it 's a match made in hell . that 's where the two of them belong . ashley : listen to me , jack . you can call it whatever you want . i know you 're upset . but you can call it revenge or anger . it 's all still pain . and i do n't give a damn what happens to phyllis , okay ? i really do n't . but i do care about you . i want you to look after yourself . jackie . come on . take a break from all this . go visit kyle . i can handle jabot . jack : yeah , 'cause this is a great time for me to lay in a hammock and read a book , right ? ashley : okay , point taken . how 'bout if you just take a break from the office ? concentrate on your foundation -- all the great work you 're doing . you are changing lives , jack . that 's something to be proud of . look , that ... is not your mess . you should n't have to clean it up . let me find out where the hell maintenance is , okay ? jack ... jackie ... you 're a good man . focus on good things . please . phyllis : i betrayed my vows , and i take full responsibility for my actions . i made a terrible , horrible mistake -- a mistake that i live with every second of every day . and i am not looking for absolution or pity . i have been tabloid fodder for some time now , and the media has picked over the bones of the worst year of my life . so i am going to ask for one thing and one thing only . please ... leave jack abbott out of this . he is a good ... loving , decent ... honest man . do not question him . do not harass him . that man has done nothing but love me . and i am committed to my husband and to the healing of our marriage . from now on , i will be making no further comments . i will be speaking to one person and one person only , and that is my husband . thank you . lily : well , i guess phyllis drew the press away from jack and the foundation , so ... maybe we 'll survive after all . victoria : did you hear what she called you ? a mistake ? jack : you were right . ashley : oh , yeah ? about what ? jack : what i do next . jill : yeah . we have offices in hong kong ... and headquarters here , and we have offices in chicago . my husband and i keep a place there , and we kind of shuttle back and forth . you know , it keeps the spark alive . remember what they say ? `` how can i miss you if you wo n't go away ? `` travis : so , you want me to go away so victoria can miss me ? jill : no . i 'm just saying that there are certain perks to this . travis : hmm . and you want to help our relationship ... or beat it with a blunt object and throw it down a well ? jill : you have a very vivid imagination . travis : and you are as intense as they come . jill : you know something ? there is a spark in you that i recognize -- that drive . that 's why you gave up that bar . you wanted adventure . you wanted the open seas , did n't you ? you like a challenge . it gets your blood going . well , travis , what i 'm offering you is such a challenge . it 's one worthy of you . travis : that 's flattering . thank you . jill : oh , honey , i 'm not trying to flatter you . i 'm trying to inspire you . of course , you could just keep on jogging all day and live off victoria 's money , too . travis : is that what i 've been doing ? jill : do n't get me wrong -- it 's working . travis : yeah . thanks . jill : mm . travis : but i 'm gon na have to pass . jill : wow . without even really thinking about it ? travis : you have instincts . so do i . jill : yeah , but mine are right . so , when you change your mind , i 'm not gon na hold this against you . travis : i appreciate that . jill : mm . travis : have a good day , jill . jill : yeah . and , travis ... maybe i 'll see you around here again . travis : yeah , maybe out jogging again . hopefully by then you 'll take the price tag off your shoes . phyllis : sweetheart . summer : mom . phyllis : how are you ? summer : um ... how did you get past the press ? phyllis : well , i just got in through the loading dock . there are still a couple out there staking it out . summer : they 're waiting for you ? phyllis : well , they 're waiting for jack . i tried to throw them off . summer : did you talk to them ? phyllis : [ sighs ] they were so in my face . they wanted every detail about my personal life , and i gave them the truth instead . people were hurt from what i did , including you . so , if i have to draw the fire to myself and away from jack , then that is my penance , if only just to get him to hear how sorry i am , how full of remorse and regret i am , and that i do want him back , and whatever he has to say to me , i deserve it . and that goes for you , too . if you need to talk , then i have to listen . summer : mom , i 'm not gon na go off on you again , okay ? it 's your life . it 's your mistake and nobody else 's , and it 's not gon na go away . phyllis : it just made me furious . they 're waiting for jack at his work . it 's not fair . i shot my mouth off -- yes , i did -- probably more than i intended . summer : well , why are you here at jabot anyways ? phyllis : jack fired me ... so i am gathering my things , and i do n't blame him . my job is not the concern right now . his feelings about our marriage -- that 's what 's important . summer : okay . well , are you gon na talk to him at all ? phyllis : well , i 'd like to . summer : look , mom -- phyllis : well , i just -- i have to , okay ? the more he sits on this ... the higher this wall 's gon na get . now is not the time for me to run and hide . summer : so instead you 're just gon na get in his face about what you want and what you need instead of respecting him and his wishes , right ? phyllis : so , what do you think -- i need to walk away , just give up ? summer : no . i do n't know . i 'm not saying that . but maybe you should let me talk to him for you . phyllis : sweetheart ... you would do that for me ? summer : yeah . just ... do n't get your hopes up , mom . jack may never forgive you , and you have to be prepared for that . jack : that 's right . i 'm calling an emergency meeting of the foundation board . we 're meeting at lily ashby 's office at the athletic club . good . thank you . ashley : that 's it , jack . shore up the foundation . concentrate on meaningful things . jack : you 'll be there ? ashley : absolutely . are you kidding ? whatever you need from me , you 've always got my support . jack , i know everything seems wrong and twisted right now , but i promise you it 's all gon na be in the past soon enough . jack : you seem sure of that . summer . lily : phyllis said the right thing . she took the heat off jack and the foundation . devon : yeah , and as bad as it is to have your personal life in the tabloids , as long as it does n't touch the foundation , all we can really do is just sit back and watch things play out . neil : guys , it can all still explode . we 've all seen this up close . things like this can have a negative impact for years to come . [ cell phones chime ] neil : ah . jack just called a meeting . lily : maybe to coordinate damage control . devon : well , hey , he 's making time for the foundation , which is a good sign that we 're all on the same page . neil : listen to me . if anyone goes off the script again , i 'm gon na do some damage control of my own . cane : all right , listen . we have a commercial that 's on deadline , and that 's not gon na change 'cause phyllis gave a press conference , okay ? billy : that was n't a press conference . that was an ambush . victoria : well , if anybody deserved to be ambushed ... cane : i ca n't do this anymore . i - i just ca n't do it , okay ? i 'm gon na go and watch this , and i 'll give notes , and you guys just ... do whatever it is you do , okay ? but let me say one thing . this -- this is not working . billy : moral superiority from the guy that lied about being my brother . cane : yeah , that 's right . that 's right , billy . victoria : we 're talking , billy . billy : yeah , you 're talking about me . a mistake , right ? except i 'm not and it was n't . victoria : did you see phyllis ' face ? did you hear her voice ? she was n't concerned about your feelings . she was scrambling to save her marriage . billy : no , that 's not true . victoria : you do n't exist to her , billy . billy : that was guilt , vicki . victoria : let me ask you this -- when has phyllis ever been loyal to anyone ? not to jack , not to nick . billy : this was n't a casual affair . this was n't a fling . we loved each other . we said it . we planned to be together for a lifetime . yes , phyllis and i were going to be together , until my mother found out and blew it all to hell . she blackmailed phyllis into dumping me . victoria : i do n't understand . billy : my mom found out , and she forced phyllis to walk away . she said if she did n't , she was gon na tell the world . and why do you think she did that ? because she is so sure that you and i are supposed to be together , even though you think i am a mistake . victoria : i never said that , billy . billy : you do n't have to say it . i can see it in your eyes ... especially when you try to keep the kids away from me . victoria : i did that because of the press , not because of you . billy : no , you did it because of me , vicki . and right now my mother is probably grinning ear to ear , thinking we are one step closer to being forever love . travis : hey . bad time ? billy : no . it 's a good time . enjoy . travis : hey . what just happened here ? victoria : i do n't know if i can tell you . travis : you ca n't or you wo n't ? jack : i am always happy to see you , summer , but are you sure you want to be here right now ? summer : yeah . i had to come check on you -- you know , make sure you 're okay . jack : i appreciate that , but i do n't want to come between you and your mother . summer : no , she got between us , not you . mom hurt you . she hurt our entire family . she also hurt herself . jack : and you 're here to plead her case , right ? summer : no , i am not . i was gon na come check on you regardless . i also saw mom ... and she knows what she did was horrible . because -- hear this , jack -- she loves you . she really does love you . and i know it probably does n't feel like it right now , because all you could possibly be feeling is the aching . trust me -- i feel it , too . i mean , i think about all the ways that you 've been there for my mom or you 've been there for me , and i -- jack : i will always be there for you , summer . i was there the day you were born . one of the greatest moments of my life . the divorce will not change any of that . those feelings will always be there for you . summer : the divorce ? ashley : jack should be here any minute . he just wanted to take a few moments with summer . neil : well , that 's good . family , you know -- he needs support , even if it is phyllis ' own daughter . ashley : yeah . he was very decisive about this meeting . devon : well , it 's something to focus on other than his personal life . neil : mm - hmm . lily : hey , guys . you can come in now . my conference call 's over . ashley : oh , my god . oh , you stop . you sto -- what are you doing here ? you 've got some nerve . phyllis : mindy sent me an e - mail . i am on the circulation list . ashley : well , not for long . and , trust me , you were n't invited . phyllis : this is jack 's meeting . it 's his call . ashley : oh , i see . so , what do you think 's gon na happen ? you 're gon na walk in and jack 's gon na be fine ? i think you need to spare yourself the humiliation , phyllis . i 'd ask you what your self - respect is , but i think we all know you do n't have any . neil : ladies , we 're here for the foundation , not this . come on . ashley : you 're right . i 'm sorry . please . this wo n't take long . devon : we 'll be waiting for you , ashley , inside . ashley : thank you . devon : uh - huh . phyllis : whatever you have to say to me ... can not make me feel any worse than i do . ashley : i do n't give a damn how you feel , phyllis . i knew . i knew it three years ago that it was a mistake for jack to let you back in to his life , because you 've always been poison to him . what i did n't know is that you were gon na share that poison with the rest of my family . you inflicted yourself on my little brother . how disgusting can one person be ? phyllis : i did not want to hurt either one of them . ashley : then why did you ? i 'll tell you why . the only thing that matters to you ever is you and your endless wheel of emotion . you know the problem with people like you , phyllis ? you think you 're so interesting , you 're so special and alive . you feel more things . you 're passionate . the truth is everybody has feelings . they just do n't give in to them . they do n't indulge in them . they do n't wallow in them . they do n't destroy people 's lives and marriages . you 're not interesting . you 're not special . you 're not even deep . billy : just walk away , ashley . ashley : you 're shallow and selfish and weak ! billy : ashley ! you 're done . ashley : do n't ! do n't defend her . billy : she 's not your fight . ashley : do n't . listen . you know what ? the two of you are something else . it 's like you 're in a contest -- who can sink the lowest . [ door slams ] phyllis : thank you . billy : wow . did you just -- i think you did . you just thanked the mistake . victoria : jill knew that billy was having an affair with his brother 's wife , so she exploited the information and blackmailed phyllis into breaking things off . travis : so billy would be free to go back to you ? that makes sense . i do n't know her that well , but it sounds like jill . victoria : that 's so jill . travis : then why are you so surprised ? victoria : i 'm not . travis : victoria ... look at you . why are you so aggravated ? victoria : [ sighs ] travis : is this really about jill , or is it about some other part of the affair ? phyllis : it was a mistake . billy : no . phyllis : it was wrong . it was selfish , and it was so cruel . billy : yeah , but that 's not the same . we always knew it was wrong . from the first kiss to the rainy night in front of the fireplace , we always knew it was wrong , but it was not a mistake . phyllis : it 's the same thing . billy : no , it 's not the same thing , phyllis . you know that . what are you doing ? that interview today -- what are you doing ? you trying to hurt me ? you trying to twist the knife in my back ? phyllis : i had to say something . i could n't -- jack : spit it out , phyllis . all the gory details ? your husband and your lover ca n't wait to hear it . victoria : why does it sound like you 're accusing me of something ? travis : i 'm not accusing you . i 'm just trying to figure you out . victoria : well , there 's nothing to figure out . travis : you sure that 's the truth ? victoria : yeah , it 's the truth . what , do you think i 'm lying to you right now ? travis : i do n't know . maybe to yourself . victoria : okay , look -- am i upset about this drama ? yes , i am upset about this drama . it 's horrible . but i 'm no saint . i 've done things before . and i 'm not trying to -- to judge billy . but i am worried . i 'm worried about my family , and i 'm worried about my kids . and for billy to think that this thing with phyllis is some grand romance , then -- travis : you do n't think it was ? victoria : no ! it was an affair . i mean , he 's done it before . he 's jumped into bed with a woman just because he could . but now billy 's gon na think that this is some gothic tragedy , and it 's gon na suck all of the life out of him , and [ sighs ] it 's gon na take all of his energy . really , he should just be licking his wounds and let phyllis crawl her way back to jack . travis : like jill wants her to ? victoria : and like phyllis wants . she said so herself . travis : right . victoria : she does n't want billy . travis : hmm . 'cause it was n't love ? victoria : no , it was n't . travis : yeah . what if it was ? would it be that horrible if billy and phyllis got together ? victoria : that wo n't happen . travis : why ? victoria : it would never work . travis : 'cause , deep down , billy still loves you and that 's the way you want it ? phyllis : jack , please . this is already so hard . jack : oh . should i be making it easier ? what do you think ? should i be making it easier ? i thought i had already done that when i cut phyllis loose . you two are free to be together . hell , get a room right now . do n't worry about me -- not that you ever did . billy : you called this meeting , jack , so let 's move on , all right ? phyllis : can we go somewhere and talk ? there 's still so much we need to say . can this meeting wait ? jack : no , it ca n't . phyllis : [ sighs ] did you see my statement to the gc buzz ? i meant every word . jack : you took our marriage to a website that trades in smut and innuendo and gossip . did i forget to say thank you ? phyllis : they were already there , waiting for you . the reporters were at jabot . i was deflecting them . i was defending you . jack : what exactly did i do that needed defending ? this i want to hear . phyllis : my choice was to talk to the reporters or leave you another 20 messages . if you do n't pick up your phone , how are we gon na talk about this ? jack : we 're not going to talk about this . that 's what lawyers are for . you have no business being here . consider yourself fired from the board as well as jabot . this foundation was set up to build people 's lives . all you do is destroy them . phyllis : we have conquered the worst together . we can do it again . jack : the worst ? no . this is the worst . and we 're not conquering anything together . and we 're done . done ! jack : thank you all for being here on such short notice . we have a lot of ground to cover , so why do n't we get started ? neil : devon , is hilary on her way ? we all have things we need to take care of today . devon : yeah . she should be here any minute . neil : okay , fine . why do n't we go over the agenda ? jack : i 'd prefer to get started right now . you can fill hilary in later . billy : i do n't suppose phyllis is gon na walk in ? jack : phyllis is no longer a part of this board . ashley : that works for me . neil : yeah , but we can still go over the points , jack . jack : you do n't have to worry about me , neil . i 'm not going off the rails . as a matter of fact , the first order of business ... is an apology . i 'm sorry . cane : so , i would like to commend you on your excellent leadership skills . ever since you put billy , victoria , and myself together , it 's been nothing but a dumpster fire . jill : you shut up , and , tell me , are they still using you as a go - between ? cane : no . they talk to each other , which means all they do is fight . jill : ugh . cane : oh , actually , no , there is one thing they talked to me about , which is i 'm not allowed to have an opinion or a decision on anything . jill : well , i take my victories where i can get 'em . cane : ha . jill : [ chuckles ] cane : thank you . so ... what happened to this being a business venture and not a matchmaking expedition ? jill : oh , like you ever believed that in the first place . down to brass tacks -- never mind how they talk to each other . how do they look at each other ? cane : i ca n't tell if they hate each other or if they have so much pent - up lust , all they need to do is find a bedroom . jill : yes ! and is phyllis still sniffing around billy ? cane : ohh . you have not seen the interview , have you ? jill : what interview ? cane : let me put it this way -- there 's going to be casualties . [ whirring ] [ whirring continues ] victoria : since when are you threatened by billy ? travis : i 'm not talking about billy . i 'm talking about you . victoria : you 're talking about how i feel , and since you 're not me , it 's really not your business . travis : i see how connected you are to your ex , victoria . he just lets himself into your house , and he gets under your skin . i got his mom trying to give me a job just to get me out of town . victoria : what ? ! jill did that ? when ? travis : this morning . i see where billy gets his entitlement from . and what jill wants , jill gets . victoria : yeah , well , she does n't get a vote in my personal life . that 's for sure . travis : no , jill does n't bother me . you are the only part of any of this that i care about . i 'm here for you , victoria . i 'm all - in . victoria : i 'm all - in , too , so what are we even talking about ? travis : you and me are one thing , but you and billy are another . okay ? it does n't matter how understanding i am if , on some level , you 're still -- you 're still tied to him in some way you 're scared to admit . jack : this foundation means a great deal to many people . i blindsided all of you with my explosion . it was n't fair to you , and i apologize . ashley : jack , we all understand . devon : and we 've all had private issues become public . lily : yeah . we can handle this like we 've handled everything . jack : i appreciate your loyalty , but this goes beyond press issues . i 've had a lot of time to think , and my perspective has changed . neil and i started this foundation to help people . neil : yeah , that we did , jack . we honored our own journeys , and we showed respect for the people who walked the path before us and the people who will come after us . jack : that 's what we said . that 's what we thought . but life has a way of opening your eyes . and i 've finally seen the truth . this foundation is nothing more than a fraud . cane : so , it looks like phyllis is falling on a sword . jill : talk about a public implosion . cane : anyway , this is none of our business . let 's not worry about it . jill : hmm . cane : do n't go , `` hmm . `` that scares me . please do n't tell me you 're thinking that brash & sassy ! should take on jabot while they 're distracted . please do n't tell me that . jill : it 's good business . cane : no , it 's not good business , because we are all in the same building . no . jill : ah . the scarlet woman . cane : please do n't do this . jill : hmm . cane : jill , do n't do this . jill : i ca n't help myself , cane . jill : well ... if it is n't the media sensation . phyllis : oh , go ahead . you get that one last gloat in , jill . you know what ? you have no control over me anymore . jill : i think you give me far too much credit . i doubt anyone could control the dynamo that is phyllis abbott , or is it `` summers `` now ? i ca n't remember which . whatever . that was a bold move you made with gc buzz this morning , coming clean like that . made it much more straightforward for everybody else . phyllis : it 's amazing . lives are coming apart , and yet you are still shoving billy and victoria together . why do n't you leave him alone ? he 's been through enough . jill : oh , wow . you 're protecting my son now ? how adorable you are ? phyllis : i am trying to do the right thing , and i 'm gon na have to fight to get back to jack , and i am not about to give up . neil : jack , this foundation is not a fraud . ashley : you 're upset . everybody understands . devon : hey , guys , i think this meeting should just wait , huh ? lily : yeah . let us field questions from the press and put out releases about existing programs . neil : yeah , they 're right . you should be -- jack : neil , hear me out . this matters . this matters to all of us . we 've heard it a million times . relapse is part of recovery . you can try to help people , try to change them , try to save them . in the end , 9 times out of 10 , people will revert to type . is n't that right , billy ? billy : oh , yeah . that 's right , jackie . i always end up in the gutter , and you 're the only one that gets out , right ? the anointed one -- the only one capable of real reform . god , it 's got to be nice to be you . jack : oh , it is so nice . my life is just a bowl of cherries right now . no . actually , i am the poster child for failure . my mistake -- my mistake ... was trying to get clean , and i 'm not talking about the pills . i 'm talking about if i 'd clean up my act -- the cheating , the scheming , the good , old - fashioned revenge for which i became somewhat famous . see , i thought i could change . i convinced myself i 'd seen the light . i was gon na step away from the darkness , turn my back on all of the ugliness and hate , turn the other cheek . i was gon na live a life of decency and kindness . and what did it get me ? what did all that piety and self - righteousness get me ? a lying , cheating wife and a backstabbing brother . well , the good news is ... old jack is back ! lot more fun , a lot less hypocrisy . i 'm not gon na pretend anymore that redemption is real , because i have seen up close and personal that lying , cheating , filth will always find a way to lie and cheat one more time . scratch abbott from the foundation letterhead . no more memos , no more meetings , no more believing people heal . i am done with this foundation and everything it stands for . in short ... i quit . [ next_on ] then you 've heard the rumor ? jack : what rumor ? that you beat up your wife . victoria : i want you to get it through your insanely thick skull that billy and i are never getting back together . billy : if you look into your heart , you will find the truth that you love me , too , and we can still be together . | jill offers travis a job at chancellor industries , but he knows that she is just trying to put distance between him and victoria by sending him to chicago or hong kong , so he turns down the job offer . travis wonders if victoria is still in love with billy , since he sees how deeply billy 's problems affect her . victoria tells travis that she is committed to their relationship , but he is starting to wonder if victoria will ever get over billy . phyllis tells the press she made a horrible mistake and will do whatever it takes to save her marriage . jack fires phyllis and tells her once again that he wants a divorce . ashley advises jack not to go down the path of revenge , but he tells the board of the abbott winters foundation that he quits , because he does n't believe that people can change their lives ; they will always relapse and become the person they were before . jack vows that billy , jill , phyllis , and victor will pay for the pain they have caused him . | <s>[INST] jack : morning . i want all of phyllis ' belongings boxed and off the premises as soon as possible . and get me the latest financial research on newman enterprises -- now . billy : i hate it . victoria : it 's the hero shot , billy . open on the product . it 's better than opening on the model . billy : is it really only two options , vicki ? victoria : well , clearly , the objective here is to focus on brand loyalty . billy : oh , loyalty ? you say that with emphasis , like i do n't understand what that means . that 's very subtle and classy . cane : wow . you know , this is almost as much fun as it was shooting the damn thing with the two of you . billy : why do n't we focus on this and not judge me because of it ? victoria : we 're trying to speak to the market directly in a language that they 're familiar with . we 're trying to create a comfort level . billy : by pandering to the boring same old , same old ? why do n't we do something fun and different and new and maybe even exciting ? how 'bout that ? victoria : oh , yeah , because new and exciting is always better . maybe to you , billy , but you 're not the demo that we 're trying to reach at all . cane : you know , i do n't want to interrupt this love affair that you two guys have , but , you know , we are trying to cut this commercial , and since the two of you ca n't make a decision , i 'm gon na do it for you . billy : oh , no . that 's not gon na happen . victoria : no , not at all . that 's one thing billy and i can agree on . jill : oh , oh , oh . travis : oh , sorry . jill : oh . oh , travis ! fancy meeting you here . whew ! i guess we share the same jogging path , huh ? travis : yeah , looks like it . jill : yeah . travis : well , enjoy your run . billy : um , you know what ? i was just about to rehydrate . boy , and i admire your stamina . i 'm sure that victoria does , too . travis : is there something you want to say to me , jill ? jill : yeah , there is . and i have been waiting for just the perfect moment . i think that this is it . neil : hey . lily : dad , hey . you managed to make it in here without being attacked by reporters . that 's progress . neil : yeah , yeah . i thought things were gon na calm down , but all i 've been doing is fielding calls -- you know , handing out a lot of , `` we do n't comment on the personal lives of our board members . `` devon : even when the board members make their private lives public . lily : well , if you do n't give the press traction , they have no choice but to back off . neil : that 's what i 'm hoping . but the foundation is still so new . you know , i was worried that we 're not established enough to take this hit . i think as long as no one else is talking to the press , we 're gon na be okay . tell us your side , phyllis ! phyllis : no comment . which brother was better in bed ? phyllis : i said , `` no comment . `` we just want your story . phyllis : is that the reason why you were stalking out this side door and not in the main -- because you knew i was gon na be here ? denise ! denise ! all right . you know what ? since you are doing the lord 's work , i will give you all the gory details -- all of them . ashley : jackie . jack : someone 's idea of a sick joke . ashley : that was billy . jack : to mock me . ashley : no . it was all self - loathing and self - pity and shame . he said it was what really mattered -- that phyllis loves you . jack : well , billy 's wrong . he 's made an entire career of being wrong . ashley : he swore it was the truth . jack : phyllis has no business here -- not in name , not in person , not in my home , not in this company , not in our family . do n't you dare try to convince me otherwise . ashley : jack , stop . i 'm gon na call maintenance . it 'll be gone before lunch . come on . jack : you always look out for me . ashley : jackie , that 's what family does . jack : tell our little brother that . ashley : how are we gon na move on from this ? jack : oh , i 'm moving on . i got plans -- big plans -- for me , for the company . and playing nice is no part of them . people are gon na realize they ca n't walk all over me with this company anymore . ashley : that makes me kind of nervous , jack . jack : the people who need to be nervous are not in this room . ashley : so , you 're talking about billy and phyllis , right ? jack : oh , i 'm not stopping with them . victor and jill are on my list , too , and anybody who had a role in this insult . they 're gon na pay a heavy price . travis : well , now that we 're hydrated ... jill : ahh . travis : ... tell me about this proposition . jill : oh , you 're eager . travis : curious . jill : you have many positive personality points . i noticed that when i met you at victoria 's , and i had to know more , so i did my research . you were on the wall street fast track , and then you gave it all up to buy a bar , and , if i might say so , not a very nice bar . travis : well , i think that being able to live with myself is worth more than a fat bank account . jill : yep . yep . happiness does equal self - respect . travis : yeah . for me , it does . jill : it does for me , too . but , of course , we have to remember that every once in a while , happiness can go hand in hand with a fat bank account , huh ? travis : from my experience , it just does n't work out that way . jill : really ? well , you might find this interesting , then . my company is looking for somebody like you -- somebody ... ethical , energetic , exciting , and when i look at you , i see all those things . travis : i think brash & sassy ! is fully staffed . jill : oh , i 'm talking bigger than that -- much bigger . i 'm talking chancellor -- overseeing several divisions . travis : really ? just from a quick look at my résumé ? jill : i 'm a keen judge of talent . travis : [ exhales sharply ] sounds like a big job . jill : yeah , it 's a huge job . i mean , can you imagine the responsibilities ? whoa . but the compensation package is spectacular . travis : hmm . and there 'd be a lot of travel , i assume ? jill : first class all the way . travis : yeah . and chancellor industries -- they have offices everywhere . let me guess -- i 'd be based in hong kong , as far away from victoria as possible . jill : [ laughs ] billy : i 'm pretty sure your job title is not `` decider . `` victoria : no , it is n't . cane : okay , but it is when the only thing you two can decide about is the fact that you do n't want to be in the same room together . okay , this is not how you run a company . if you guys want to snipe each other , please , please just do it on your own time . we are trying to cut this commercial . billy : [ chuckles ] is it the kids ? what 's wrong ? victoria : no , it 's nothing . billy : no , it 's something . i just saw your eyes do that thing . victoria : what thing ? billy : what is it , vicki ? victoria : phyllis is about to give a statement on gc buzz . lily : dad . neil : what ? lily : you have to see this . neil : what 's wrong ? lily : when we said no more press about the affair , i guess gc buzz did n't get the memo . neil : jack needs to back away from the press . lily : no . it 's not jack . phyllis : this is not how i wanted to do this . but there seems to be some rumors circulating about my personal life . apparently , people want to get in to my business . therefore , i am here to set the record straight . ashley : jackie , revenge is useless . you know that . it just causes more pain and more misery . revenge is what sent phyllis down the sewer , and i do n't want it to happen to you . jack : oh , you give phyllis much too much credit . revenge was n't what put her in billy 's bed . she was n't fighting some noble cause . this is who she is . this is what she is . same thing with billy . it 's a match made in hell . that 's where the two of them belong . ashley : listen to me , jack . you can call it whatever you want . i know you 're upset . but you can call it revenge or anger . it 's all still pain . and i do n't give a damn what happens to phyllis , okay ? i really do n't . but i do care about you . i want you to look after yourself . jackie . come on . take a break from all this . go visit kyle . i can handle jabot . jack : yeah , 'cause this is a great time for me to lay in a hammock and read a book , right ? ashley : okay , point taken . how 'bout if you just take a break from the office ? concentrate on your foundation -- all the great work you 're doing . you are changing lives , jack . that 's something to be proud of . look , that ... is not your mess . you should n't have to clean it up . let me find out where the hell maintenance is , okay ? jack ... jackie ... you 're a good man . focus on good things . please . phyllis : i betrayed my vows , and i take full responsibility for my actions . i made a terrible , horrible mistake -- a mistake that i live with every second of every day . and i am not looking for absolution or pity . i have been tabloid fodder for some time now , and the media has picked over the bones of the worst year of my life . so i am going to ask for one thing and one thing only . please ... leave jack abbott out of this . he is a good ... loving , decent ... honest man . do not question him . do not harass him . that man has done nothing but love me . and i am committed to my husband and to the healing of our marriage . from now on , i will be making no further comments . i will be speaking to one person and one person only , and that is my husband . thank you . lily : well , i guess phyllis drew the press away from jack and the foundation , so ... maybe we 'll survive after all . victoria : did you hear what she called you ? a mistake ? jack : you were right . ashley : oh , yeah ? about what ? jack : what i do next . jill : yeah . we have offices in hong kong ... and headquarters here , and we have offices in chicago . my husband and i keep a place there , and we kind of shuttle back and forth . you know , it keeps the spark alive . remember what they say ? `` how can i miss you if you wo n't go away ? `` travis : so , you want me to go away so victoria can miss me ? jill : no . i 'm just saying that there are certain perks to this . travis : hmm . and you want to help our relationship ... or beat it with a blunt object and throw it down a well ? jill : you have a very vivid imagination . travis : and you are as intense as they come . jill : you know something ? there is a spark in you that i recognize -- that drive . that 's why you gave up that bar . you wanted adventure . you wanted the open seas , did n't you ? you like a challenge . it gets your blood going . well , travis , what i 'm offering you is such a challenge . it 's one worthy of you . travis : that 's flattering . thank you . jill : oh , honey , i 'm not trying to flatter you . i 'm trying to inspire you . of course , you could just keep on jogging all day and live off victoria 's money , too . travis : is that what i 've been doing ? jill : do n't get me wrong -- it 's working . travis : yeah . thanks . jill : mm . travis : but i 'm gon na have to pass . jill : wow . without even really thinking about it ? travis : you have instincts . so do i . jill : yeah , but mine are right . so , when you change your mind , i 'm not gon na hold this against you . travis : i appreciate that . jill : mm . travis : have a good day , jill . jill : yeah . and , travis ... maybe i 'll see you around here again . travis : yeah , maybe out jogging again . hopefully by then you 'll take the price tag off your shoes . phyllis : sweetheart . summer : mom . phyllis : how are you ? summer : um ... how did you get past the press ? phyllis : well , i just got in through the loading dock . there are still a couple out there staking it out . summer : they 're waiting for you ? phyllis : well , they 're waiting for jack . i tried to throw them off . summer : did you talk to them ? phyllis : [ sighs ] they were so in my face . they wanted every detail about my personal life , and i gave them the truth instead . people were hurt from what i did , including you . so , if i have to draw the fire to myself and away from jack , then that is my penance , if only just to get him to hear how sorry i am , how full of remorse and regret i am , and that i do want him back , and whatever he has to say to me , i deserve it . and that goes for you , too . if you need to talk , then i have to listen . summer : mom , i 'm not gon na go off on you again , okay ? it 's your life . it 's your mistake and nobody else 's , and it 's not gon na go away . phyllis : it just made me furious . they 're waiting for jack at his work . it 's not fair . i shot my mouth off -- yes , i did -- probably more than i intended . summer : well , why are you here at jabot anyways ? phyllis : jack fired me ... so i am gathering my things , and i do n't blame him . my job is not the concern right now . his feelings about our marriage -- that 's what 's important . summer : okay . well , are you gon na talk to him at all ? phyllis : well , i 'd like to . summer : look , mom -- phyllis : well , i just -- i have to , okay ? the more he sits on this ... the higher this wall 's gon na get . now is not the time for me to run and hide . summer : so instead you 're just gon na get in his face about what you want and what you need instead of respecting him and his wishes , right ? phyllis : so , what do you think -- i need to walk away , just give up ? summer : no . i do n't know . i 'm not saying that . but maybe you should let me talk to him for you . phyllis : sweetheart ... you would do that for me ? summer : yeah . just ... do n't get your hopes up , mom . jack may never forgive you , and you have to be prepared for that . jack : that 's right . i 'm calling an emergency meeting of the foundation board . we 're meeting at lily ashby 's office at the athletic club . good . thank you . ashley : that 's it , jack . shore up the foundation . concentrate on meaningful things . jack : you 'll be there ? ashley : absolutely . are you kidding ? whatever you need from me , you 've always got my support . jack , i know everything seems wrong and twisted right now , but i promise you it 's all gon na be in the past soon enough . jack : you seem sure of that . summer . lily : phyllis said the right thing . she took the heat off jack and the foundation . devon : yeah , and as bad as it is to have your personal life in the tabloids , as long as it does n't touch the foundation , all we can really do is just sit back and watch things play out . neil : guys , it can all still explode . we 've all seen this up close . things like this can have a negative impact for years to come . [ cell phones chime ] neil : ah . jack just called a meeting . lily : maybe to coordinate damage control . devon : well , hey , he 's making time for the foundation , which is a good sign that we 're all on the same page . neil : listen to me . if anyone goes off the script again , i 'm gon na do some damage control of my own . cane : all right , listen . we have a commercial that 's on deadline , and that 's not gon na change 'cause phyllis gave a press conference , okay ? billy : that was n't a press conference . that was an ambush . victoria : well , if anybody deserved to be ambushed ... cane : i ca n't do this anymore . i - i just ca n't do it , okay ? i 'm gon na go and watch this , and i 'll give notes , and you guys just ... do whatever it is you do , okay ? but let me say one thing . this -- this is not working . billy : moral superiority from the guy that lied about being my brother . cane : yeah , that 's right . that 's right , billy . victoria : we 're talking , billy . billy : yeah , you 're talking about me . a mistake , right ? except i 'm not and it was n't . victoria : did you see phyllis ' face ? did you hear her voice ? she was n't concerned about your feelings . she was scrambling to save her marriage . billy : no , that 's not true . victoria : you do n't exist to her , billy . billy : that was guilt , vicki . victoria : let me ask you this -- when has phyllis ever been loyal to anyone ? not to jack , not to nick . billy : this was n't a casual affair . this was n't a fling . we loved each other . we said it . we planned to be together for a lifetime . yes , phyllis and i were going to be together , until my mother found out and blew it all to hell . she blackmailed phyllis into dumping me . victoria : i do n't understand . billy : my mom found out , and she forced phyllis to walk away . she said if she did n't , she was gon na tell the world . and why do you think she did that ? because she is so sure that you and i are supposed to be together , even though you think i am a mistake . victoria : i never said that , billy . billy : you do n't have to say it . i can see it in your eyes ... especially when you try to keep the kids away from me . victoria : i did that because of the press , not because of you . billy : no , you did it because of me , vicki . and right now my mother is probably grinning ear to ear , thinking we are one step closer to being forever love . travis : hey . bad time ? billy : no . it 's a good time . enjoy . travis : hey . what just happened here ? victoria : i do n't know if i can tell you . travis : you ca n't or you wo n't ? jack : i am always happy to see you , summer , but are you sure you want to be here right now ? summer : yeah . i had to come check on you -- you know , make sure you 're okay . jack : i appreciate that , but i do n't want to come between you and your mother . summer : no , she got between us , not you . mom hurt you . she hurt our entire family . she also hurt herself . jack : and you 're here to plead her case , right ? summer : no , i am not . i was gon na come check on you regardless . i also saw mom ... and she knows what she did was horrible . because -- hear this , jack -- she loves you . she really does love you . and i know it probably does n't feel like it right now , because all you could possibly be feeling is the aching . trust me -- i feel it , too . i mean , i think about all the ways that you 've been there for my mom or you 've been there for me , and i -- jack : i will always be there for you , summer . i was there the day you were born . one of the greatest moments of my life . the divorce will not change any of that . those feelings will always be there for you . summer : the divorce ? ashley : jack should be here any minute . he just wanted to take a few moments with summer . neil : well , that 's good . family , you know -- he needs support , even if it is phyllis ' own daughter . ashley : yeah . he was very decisive about this meeting . devon : well , it 's something to focus on other than his personal life . neil : mm - hmm . lily : hey , guys . you can come in now . my conference call 's over . ashley : oh , my god . oh , you stop . you sto -- what are you doing here ?

phyllis : i did not want to hurt either one of them . ashley : then why did you ? i 'll tell you why . the only thing that matters to you ever is you and your endless wheel of emotion . you know the problem with people like you , phyllis ? you think you 're so interesting , you 're so special and alive . you feel more things . you 're passionate . the truth is everybody has feelings . they just do n't give in to them . they do n't indulge in them . they do n't wallow in them . they do n't destroy people 's lives and marriages . you 're not interesting . you 're not special . you 're not even deep . billy : just walk away , ashley . ashley : you 're shallow and selfish and weak ! billy : ashley ! you 're done . ashley : do n't ! do n't defend her . billy : she 's not your fight . ashley : do n't . listen . you know what ?

what did all that piety and self - righteousness get me ? a lying , cheating wife and a backstabbing brother . well , the good news is ... old jack is back ! lot more fun , a lot less hypocrisy . i 'm not gon na pretend anymore that redemption is real , because i have seen up close and personal that lying , cheating , filth will always find a way to lie and cheat one more time . scratch abbott from the foundation letterhead . no more memos , no more meetings , no more believing people heal . i am done with this foundation and everything it stands for . in short ... i quit .

[ laughs ] damian : and that 's bad ? meg : no ! then he took it back ! he took the apology back and threw it in my face ! damian : you know , maybe this is for the best . meg : why ? damian : the last thing you need is some bully like dusty trying to push you around . meg : oh -- okay , do n't -- do n't call him that . damian : did n't i just hear you call him that ? meg : i have a right to be angry at him . you do n't ! i do n't want you bad- mouthing him . damian : forgive me , but i ca n't stand by and watch another man push you around , all right ? meg : that 's exactly what i want you to do , damian -- stand by ! do nothing ! let me fight my own battles ! is that so hard to understand ? damian : no , no . i understand . i wo n't mention dusty 's name again . meg : i appreciate it . damian : you 've been a very good friend , meg , and the least i can do is try and respect your boundaries . meg : no , do n't just try . do it . damian : as you wish . thank you for letting me confide in you about luke . meg : anytime . damian : i 'll hold you to that .
