delia : i think i can clear all of this up . kiki : delia . sonny : i thought i made it clear you 're not allowed back in port charles , delia . delia : you thought you and your mooks could run me out of this town for good ? you learn a lesson in delia . i take orders from no man . sonny : unless it 's an order of tequila , right ? delia : hey , at least it 's honest work . julian : delia , what -- what are you even doing here ? kiki : i called her . i mean , do you really think i would n't tell her that some woman just showed up with my mom 's face ? alexis : well , it 's a good thing you did , kiki , because if anyone knows who denise is , it 's delia . [ scene_break ] sloane : is this so inconceivable ? anna : what , that you fixed the mayoral election ? no . and that you had someone help you ? yeah , sure , i get that , but it could n't have been from the person that you 're saying . sloane : the cassadine family have a very bad reputation , and they have a long history of going to any length to get what they want . why should prince nikolas be any different ? [ scene_break ] nikolas : i was starting to wonder if you 'd gotten so caught up in acting as michael 's assistant you forgot who you really work for . rosalie : uh , i know who i work for . that 's why i 'm calling you . i need to talk to you . it 's about elq . tracy : is that so ? i 'm all ears . [ scene_break ] franco : so where is ric ? he did n't want to dine with you ? huh . is the honeymoon over ? [ scene_break ] ric : sorry for the delay . i just wanted to make sure that your daughter did n't get suspicious . madeline : tardiness is the hallmark of the unreliable , mr. lansing . ric : i can assure you i 'm anything but . madeline : you 're ready to talk business , then ? ric : more than ready . madeline : good . let 's get to it . tell me , how go the efforts to get our hands on my daughter 's fortune ? [ scene_break ] anna : early on in your career , right , you used to have this tendency that you would stretch the facts in order to suit your needs , and that 's what you 're doing right now , is n't it ? it is . huh ? sloane : you really think i would make this up ? after everything we 've been through in the past few days ? why ? answer me that . anna : i do n't know , in order to deflect blame from your own actions , probably . sloane : by implicating one of the most powerful people in port charles ? why would i want to make an enemy to nikolas cassadine ? anna : you see , now , this -- this is where you 've lost me , because i know for a fact that nikolas was a staunch supporter of felicia . he was one of her biggest backers in this race for mayor , so why on earth would he help lomax to defeat his own candidate ? why ? sloane : because he thought his money could influence felicia . he quickly learned that felicia 's incorruptible . lomax ? a whole ' nother story . she was more than willing to accommodate . anna : you are accusing one of this city 's greatest benefactors of tampering with an election and of corruption and bribery . no . that 's more in line with something that his grandmother would do . sloane : maybe prince nikolas is more like her than you think . [ scene_break ] tracy : so , `` ro , `` did michael ever tell you the importance of discretion when carrying on furtive conversations about the family business ? nikolas : is that tracy ? are you calling me from the quartermaine house ? rosalie : uh ... i will call you back . ms. quartermaine . i did n't see you come in . tracy : clearly . so cough it up . who were you conspiring with ? rosalie : i - i was n't conspiring with anyone . i was making plans to see someone . not that it 's any of your concern . tracy : well , that phone is , uh , company property , so one call to sherman in it , and i will know exactly who you were talking to . rosalie : i - i was talking to nina clay . tracy : really ? and why would you talk to your former employer ? rosalie : 'cause michael asked me to . tracy : [ laughs ] now i know you 're lying . michael would have nothing to do with the woman that kidnapped his baby sister . rosalie : actually , you 're wrong . michael is being forced to do business with nina , thanks to your son . tracy : what are you talking about ? rosalie : [ chuckles ] ned gave away his shares of elq to franco and nina , and now michael 's having to clean up his mess . if you do n't believe me , you can ask him . tracy : thank you . i intend to do just that . rosalie : great . now , if you 'll excuse me , i have a job to do . lulu : hey , rosalie . bye , rosalie . i have to talk to you . tracy : i ca n't , i have to go talk to michael about -- lulu : nope , this is urgent . aunt bobbie just called me . dad has disappeared . [ scene_break ] franco : i 've always heard that newlyweds , they ca n't get enough of each other , you know ? they 're always ... whatever it is that you kids are calling it these days . nina : oh , we 're calling it things . we -- we call it things . i 'm doing -- i 'm doing the dirty , we 're doing the nasty , we 're doing the ... mystery ... sandwich , we 're doing the hibbety jibbety , we 're doing so many great things . we 're having so much of the sex . and more . franco : so why are you here ? why are n't you off somewhere with him , expanding your repertoire ? ric : look , just 'cause we did n't have sex does n't mean i - i care about you any less . nina : 'cause i wore him out . [ chuckles ] i mean , he ca n't get enough of this b - double - o - t - y , my . got it ? franco : yeah , i got it . b - o - double - t - y . nina : mm - hmm . franco : hard to miss . nina : right . i mean , even sex maniacs -- i mean , we have to come up for air . scotch rocks , please . news flash -- my husband is a very high - powered attorney . he 's very successful . he does n't have the time to satisfy this 24/7 . i mean , he has clients . he 's all about helping people . [ scene_break ] ric : you know , before we revisit our long - range plans , i just wanted to see how you 're doing , madeline . madeline : [ chuckles ] well , let 's see . the puerto ricans have selected me for their flag day tug of war team . seems i 'm a badass mamacita around here . what does that tell you ? ric : well , it seems that you 're adjusting to life in pentonville quite well . madeline : i do n't want to adjust . i just want the hell out of here . ric : madeline , this takes time . madeline : i should have been out of here months ago . i was on my way to court . i would have been declared not guilty had it not been for those cretins and their ridiculous escape plan . [ sighs ] everything changed because of that scheming witch , ava jerome . [ scene_break ] dante : listen , delia , uh , maybe you can shed some light on this , uh , strange situation . delia : i could shed the light of a thousand suns on this strange situation . denise : wait . how would this floozy know anything about me ? delia : because i 'm your mother . denise : i 'm supposed to believe that i 'm the daughter of this addlebrained , patchouli - reekin ' , bleached - out boozehound ? delia : hey , i take offense to that ! there is absolutely nothing wrong with patchouli ! denise : maybe not in yonkers . delia : yonkers ? you got a lot of nerve . morgan : hey , hey , whoa , whoa . let 's not do anything stupid , okay ? julian : okay , everybody just calm down . we 're in the middle of a police station . denise : you want calm , you 've come to the wrong woman . ever since i came to this town , i 've been treated like a pariah . i 've been screamed at , i 've been accused , i 've been arrested ! nobody believes me . and all of a sudden , this wannabe lace curtain irish shows up and says that she 's my mother ? delia : that is not a claim , that is not a lie , that is not a made - up story . that is the truth . you are my daughter ! julian : delia , what exactly are you trying to say here ? alexis : is denise really ava ? [ scene_break ] madeline : ava 's escape plan cost me everything . ric : well , i think it 's safe to say that she got what was coming to her in the end . madeline : that 's true , but , in a dazzling display of ineptitude , my very expensive legal team failed to convince the authorities that i was n't in on it . i would have fired each and every one of them if they had n't quit . ric : perhaps their , uh , lackluster performance was the result of poor motivation , considering the fact you ca n't pay them . madeline : money is not the issue . the money is there . ric : which you do not have access to . madeline : that will change once you get me out of here . i guarantee you , you will have a very handsome payday . my family 's fortune is quite substantial . ric : yeah , about that . you know , your family 's fortune , madeline , not yours . and more accurately , it belongs to one person , nina , though she , uh , does n't have the legal right to spend it at the moment . madeline : once you get me out of here , i will have access , but in the meantime , we have to get our ducks in a row . ric : i know . of course . madeline : right . you said you were going to meet with nina . did that happen ? is she going to allow you to represent her ? ric : even better . nina agreed to let me marry her . [ scene_break ] franco : you do n't make sense with ric at all except for one thing . nina : okay , are you on to that song and dance again ? 'cause i really do n't want to hear it . ric is n't interested in my money . he 's interested in me . franco : i 'm really concerned about you . nina : i do n't need your concern . i do n't care ! if you 're done cross - examining my marital sex life , i need to get upstairs to my room , because my husband is gon na be home soon , and , you know , i need to get ready for another round of our sex . franco : okay , y - you do n't even have a room anymore ! olivia cut both of us off . nina : oh , no , that 's where you 're wrong . my husband is completely capable of supporting me . i 've completely moved on . i have moved on , and i suggest you do the same thing . franco : you 've moved on . not if i can help it . nina : j ! oh , hi . hi . hey . hey , uh , i have n't seen you in forever ! we have a lot to catch up on . nathan : yes , we do , and you can start by letting me know why you went to go get married and you did n't tell me . [ scene_break ] nikolas : what were you thinking , calling me from the quartermaines ? rosalie : okay , let 's bring it down a notch . tracy had some questions , i answered them , and then i left . nikolas : i have been working for months to take over elq . your lack of caution and common sense could have undone everything ! rosalie : okay , boss , i hear you loud and clear . careful is the name of the game . but really , i took care of tracy . nikolas : what did you tell her ? rosalie : that i was on the phone with nina clay . nikolas : why nina ? rosalie : michael has sent me to nutty nina with a job to do -- buy back the elq shares that ned gave away . [ scene_break ] anna : god , nikolas was the only bright spot in that whole dreadful clan . i find it very difficult to believe that he tampered with that election . sloane : he probably thought lomax would be useful to him . what are you doing ? you 're not taking this public , are you ? anna : no . it 's a little premature for that . want a drink ? sloane : little premature for that , is n't it ? anna : if i 'm going to hear your story , you know , i -- look , nikolas was a dear friend of my daughter 's , and he 's always been a very good family friend , and if i 've got to believe the fact that he has now tapped into the dark side of his heritage , then i 'm gon na need a drink . you ? sloane : why not ? it 's not like i have a job to go to anymore . [ clink glasses ] anna : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] tracy : your father ca n't just disappear from the hospital . lulu : aunt bobbie called me from the hospital . she said that the nurses saw her coming up to the front desk to check in , so they asked if everything was okay with dad . she said she did n't know . she would let them know as soon as she saw him . that 's when they realized that she did n't know . tracy : did n't know what ? lulu : that dad had been released . tracy : oh , lulu , that 's ridiculous . he 's nowhere near ready to come home . lulu : no , one of the doctors told aunt bobbie that dad had been reevaluated and was given a clean bill of health , and they just let him go . tracy : when ? lulu : two days ago . so why would n't he have called one of us or come straight home ? tracy : only one thing comes to mind . he 's not himself again . he managed to convince the doctors that he was better , and he took off at the first opportunity . we need to call the police and tell them that luke is out there and he may not be well enough . luke : you do n't need to do that . i 'm here . lulu : dad ? luke : yeah , it 's me . i 'm back . home sweet ... sweet home . lulu : but how ? luke : i took the bus . tracy : i do n't think that 's what lulu meant . we thought you were at the hospital . luke : oh , and you think that that 's where i should still be . my release papers . now , i know . you think that they 're probably forged , but if you look at the last page , you 'll see the doctor 's signature is real . my head is officially shrunk . tracy : so you 're cured ? luke : i 'm ... better . tracy : how much better ? luke : well , i 'm not free and clear , but i 'm better enough to be on my own . community service and , uh , probation await . but i 'm here , and my god , it 's good to see you . lulu : it 's good to see you , too , dad . luke : you do n't sound convinced , daughter . lulu : you took the bus to get here ? luke : yeah . the bus . tracy : that was two days ago you were released . if you had walked , you could have gotten here faster . luke : well , that 's true , but i had to take a side trip . there was something i needed to do . tracy : which was ? luke : i needed to get this . [ scene_break ] anna : all right , let 's hear it . how did you fix the mayoral election ? sloane : goes back to january . you remember ? the missing ballot box down at the elm street precinct ? anna : everyone was looking for it . sloane : search led to spencer cassadine . anna : hmm . that 's right . sloane : every part of the story is official , it 's right , up until then . all truthful . everything afterward was a work of fiction . i did n't find the ballot box the next day . i found the ballot box the night before . anna : where ? sloane : exactly where falconeri and west found it -- wyndemere . nikolas invited me to the island . when i showed up , i saw he was n't alone . lomax was right there with him . anna : and so is the ballot box . sloane : yeah , they told me they wanted to assure lomax 's victory over felicia , and in order to succeed , they needed the cooperation of somebody in law enforcement . anna : that would be you . sloane : well , yeah . they could n't bring in someone from the pcpd . all your officers are fiercely loyal to you . anna : they are all good people down at the station . sloane : the plan was for me to arrange for a warrant , with the evidence suggesting that felicia 's political backer , cassadine , was behind the missing ballot box . anna : seem to remember you interrupted a very nice cup of tea with that warrant . sloane : well , i knew once you had the warrant , you 'd send your best detectives out to wyndemere . anna : where they would find the ballot box and learn of spencer 's involvement . sloane : once lomax was sworn in , i would be rewarded . anna : with my job . sloane : that 's it . that 's how it all went down . anna : oh , i find it very hard to wrap my head around what nikolas has become . sloane : well , i guess he 's not the person you thought he was . anna : who among us is ? [ scene_break ] rosalie : michael figures that i have a better chance of buying back the shares than he does . he 's willing to pay cash . nikolas : and he trusts you to walk around with all that money ? rosalie : yeah . yeah , michael 's decent like that . um , as soon as he gave me the assignment , i called you . how would you like me to proceed ? nikolas : you will do exactly as michael asked . [ scene_break ] nina : listen , i am sorry i did n't call you before the wedding . it was so spur of the moment . nathan : yeah , no kidding . nina : yeah . we met up and it was right and we thought , let 's do it . and when you -- when you meet ric , you 'll totally understand what i 'm talking about . nathan : i doubt that . all right , look , i do n't know ric all that well , but what i do know , i do n't like . nina : okay , can you be happy for me ? nathan : are you happy , though , nina ? how can you be ? ric saw your little stunt , by the way , when you faked your last meltdown at the courthouse , which is not exactly a stable foundation for a relationship . nina : okay , well , that meeting was just a fluke . nathan : well , what do you call marrying the guy ? nina : listen , it was right ! we have so much in common and thought , `` hey , let 's get -- let 's get married . let 's just do this . `` nathan : just -- just like that ? nina : kismet , serendipity . i get him , and he gets me . nathan : he was proposing to elizabeth webber one minute and then proposing to you the next . it does n't bother you ? you do n't wonder why he 's moving so fast ? nina : okay , are you saying that ric lansing has ulterior motives ? nathan : yes ! millions of them . nina : so he ca n't possibly be interested in me , that he 's just interested in my money ? that 's what you 're saying ? nathan : yes . nina : excuse me , how did you find out that ric and i got married in the first place ? franco : oh , hey , nathan , how 's it going ? uh , did you convince your sister that ric 's just after her money yet ? [ scene_break ] madeline : you proposed to my daughter ? ric : mm - hmm . i did . it 's one of the greatest moments of my life . madeline : [ laughs ] you 've got to be out of your mind . my daughter would never marry the likes of you . ric : [ chuckles ] well , madeline , not only would your daughter marry the likes of me . she did . i think congratulations are in order , frankly . madeline : this was not part of the plan . you were supposed to convince nina to hire you to help her regain control over her inheritance . ric : yes , and then find a way to redirect those funds into your account . madeline : exactly . ric : you know what ? i thought about that , and the more i did , the more i realized that the former , you know , getting possession of nina 's money , was very possible , but getting it to you was not . madeline : i beg your pardon ? ric : well , how do i put this , madeline ? um , nina despises you . yeah , she 'd rather , um , burn the money or actually give it to a foundation that supports giraffes than share it with you . but i figure , why should you not get the money and then i not get the money ? so , i married her . oh , no , no , no , no , no . do n't -- do n't worry . no , i 'm not gon na just leave you here to rot in prison . no . no , i 'll -- i 'll come visit you from time to time . mom . [ scene_break ] denise : it 's impossible . this bimbo is not my mother . i am not a jerome . i am a demuccio . and do n't you forget it . kiki : delia , please , just tell us what 's going on . morgan : you 're the only one that knows the truth . kiki : is she my mom ? delia : no . that 's not ava . my wayward daughter is dead , drowned , dropped to the bottom of the drink . by butterfingers over here . lucas : so , what did you mean when you said that denise was your daughter ? delia : [ sighs ] i do n't think i 've ever said these words before to another living being . i did n't want to relive my shame . kiki : it 's okay , delia . just tell us . please . delia : [ sighs ] i guess you all know my story . i was young and foolish and i was involved with victor jerome and i got knocked up with ava . except the truth is ... she was n't born alone . there were two babies that night . ava has a twin . denise . denise : no . there is no way . delia : i had two girls , one after the other . first there was ava and then you , denise . dante : denise 's dna was a close match to ava 's , but it was n't perfect , right ? identical twins need identical dna , yeah ? lucas : correct . delia : well , you know , i said they were twins . i did n't say they were identical . fraternal . two eggs , two babies , one womb . listen , i was in no condition to take care of one baby , no less two , but i never thought the orphanage would separate you two . i mean , who does that ? twins need each other . they 're kind of like a package deal . but a couple years later , i found out what really happened . [ sighs ] you were swept away and ava was left all by her lonesome . kiki : my poor mom . delia : i 'm so sorry for leaving you high and dry . and i 'm sorry for getting off on the wrong foot . please forgive me , denise . please . sonny : hold on a second . are we really buying this ? morgan : i mean , you know ... sonny : come on . morgan : it sounds on the level . sonny : real -- this is the first time we 're hearing it . did she ever mention to you -- did ava ever mention to you that she had a sister ? [ scene_break ] lulu : what 's that ? luke : a tattoo . tracy : luke , we can see it 's a tattoo . what is it doing there ? luke : well , i had it done when i left the hospital . lulu : so that was your side trip ? luke : yeah , i stopped at a small parlor of ink . lulu : what 's it supposed to be ? luke : lulu , it 's a dragon . tracy : is there any significance to this dragon ? luke : yes . my father had this same tattoo . tracy : your father ? duke : yeah , i described it to the young artist , and he replicated it beautifully , i think . do n't you ? lulu : i do n't know what we 're supposed to think . tracy : why would you want any permanent symbol of the man that caused you nothing but pain and suffering ? why would you want any remembrance of tim spencer ? luke : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] nikolas : you will do exactly as michael instructed . you will take this briefcase and pay nina a little visit . you will negotiate for her and franco 's shares of elq . you will strike a bargain . anything less is unacceptable . rosalie : okay , well , assuming nina plays ball , ned 's shares will go directly back to michael , and you will get nothing . nada . zilch . nikolas : that 's where you 're wrong . because when you make that deal and get those shares , you 're not going to take them to michael . you 're going to bring them to me . [ scene_break ] nina : how dare you ? you went behind my back and tried to poison my brother against me ? franco : no , i tried to poison him against ric . nathan : franco , enough . nina : and you ! you 're taking his side ! nathan : it 's not about taking sides . franco : yeah , it is totally about taking sides . nathan : just shut up . nina , you 're my sister , i love you , i just want the best for you . nina : then you should be supporting me in my new life adventure instead of siding with this -- this faithless rat who likes to snipe at me from the side . nathan : i 'm just worried ! nina : yeah , you know , franco 's opinion of me is so low , it 's so low that he still thinks that i 'm into babynapping , right ? franco : that is not entirely fair . nina : right ? nathan : i do n't care what franco thinks . i think it 's a bad idea for you to marry ric lansing . franco : that 's great . so now will you please just end this sham of a marriage ? nina : i 'm gon na end you . nathan : stop it . he 's a jackass , i get that . nina , i need you to come with me right now , please . nina : where ? nathan : i have an appointment with diane miller to see about getting this marriage annulled . [ scene_break ] madeline : son of a bitch . ric : now , now , maddie . is that any way to talk to your new son - in - law ? madeline : how dare you try to cut me out ? you never would have thought of going after nina if it had n't been for me . ric : yes , and for that , i have to thank you from the bottom of my heart , because i was in a very bad place financially there for a minute . i almost went broke trying to get back the woman that i love . and then an angel appeared , you , in a prison jumpsuit . and that led me to nina , and , uh , well , the rest is history . madeline : you wo n't get away with it . ric : oh , but i already have . [ gasps ] oh ! look at the time . i 'm afraid i 'm gon na have to go . got to get back to the little wifey before she gets antsy . she can not get enough of me . madeline : i will have your head ! ric : you can surely try , madeline , but my advice to you is you might want to get a new lawyer , 'cause i 'm gon na be too busy tending to my new wife to tend to your bid for freedom , okay ? ta - ta , mom . been a blast . madeline : not so fast , you little wart ! you walk out of here , and i promise you i will blow you and whatever plan you have right out of the water ! [ scene_break ] rosalie : okay , let 's say that nina does decide to sell me her shares of elq . you want me to take michael 's money , pay for them , and then bring the shares to you . nikolas : [ chuckles ] brilliant in its simplicity , is it not ? rosalie : simple ? i 'm sorry , are you kidding me ? what am i supposed to tell michael when i show up at his office with an empty briefcase and no shares ? nikolas : tell him that nina shut you down , and then you return the briefcase with every last dollar in it , because when you make that deal for those shares , you 're gon na pay nina with my money , not michael 's . you get it ? rosalie : okay . well , what if michael does n't take no for an answer ? you know , port charles is not a very big town . nikolas : what 's your point ? rosalie : well , what if michael runs into my bff nina down at , you know , the floating rib or kelly 's or something ? you know , and then nina opens her big mouth and tells michael that she sold me the shares ? that 'll be it for me . i 'll be finished . nikolas : you 're assuming that michael would believe nina over you , and who would believe that lunatic ? [ scene_break ] nathan : nina , i only want to help you , okay ? this marriage -- this marriage is wrong . everything about this is bad , it 's too fast , and i know you feel the same way . i can see it in your eyes . you need a lawyer . nina : i do n't need a lawyer ! i ca n't believe that you 're acting like this to me . i would expect it from him , but not from you . in my heart of hearts , i thought that my little brother would be happy for me , but obviously i was wrong . the only lawyer i need and man i need is ric . [ scene_break ] madeline : i will not allow you to take what is rightfully mine . ric : okay , `` a , `` it is not rightfully yours . it 's nina 's , and `` b , `` you ca n't stop me . madeline : one call to my daughter , and she will leave you without one red cent . ric : okay , really ? so how do you think that 's gon na go ? you think she 's gon na take a collect call from a woman who killed her baby and put her in a coma for 20 years , hmm ? yeah , that 's what i thought . madeline : but she will take a call from her brother , wo n't she ? hmm . the two of them are very , very close , and he would not allow a threat against his sister , even if the warning came from me . ric : you do n't have any evidence to back that up . madeline : how quickly you forget that my son is a very skilled detective . [ chuckles ] and the visitor logs from this prison will show the connection between you and me . ric : [ sighs ] madeline : [ chuckles ] and that will lead him right to you . so , as i see it , you have two choices . you can either continue on this little rant of yours , take your chances , or you can come back to the fold and stick to the original plan . [ chuckles ] wise choice . now sit your ass down and let 's finish what we started .

[ chuckles ] and the visitor logs from this prison will show the connection between you and me . ric : [ sighs ] madeline : [ chuckles ] and that will lead him right to you . so , as i see it , you have two choices . you can either continue on this little rant of yours , take your chances , or you can come back to the fold and stick to the original plan .

bill : what i 'm saying is that katie hands me custody papers , and in the blink of an eye , she is cobbling a family together to try and impress the judge . liam : yeah , and they also happen to love each other . the custody issue is because you were a neglectful parent , period . bill : you 're right , liam . i was . and i 've learned my lesson . i want to be a good father . not just to will . to both of you . wyatt : but that 's probably gon na take some time , dad . bill : i 'm willing to give it all the time it needs , wyatt . but right now , i have a little boy who needs his father . i was n't there for you two when you were his age , but i am there right now for will . and i want that opportunity . wyatt : okay . and you 'll probably get that opportunity regardless of what happens tomorrow . bill : i ca n't do that , wyatt . i ca n't take that chance . i want equal custody . nothing less . holidays together . the three of you growing up as brothers , with a dad who gives a damn . that 's what i want . family . that 's what i need . and will needs it , too . now , i know i have no right to ask this , but i need your help . katie : you know , it 's funny . i wondered if i would ever wear one of these again . thorne : yeah , me , too . katie : and yet here we are . thorne : i 'm exactly where i want to be . katie : and hopefully tomorrow the last piece of the puzzle will fit into place . thorne : it will . there 's no way the judge is gon na rule against us . we 're doing what 's best for will . katie : [ sighs ] i 'm nervous . going up against bill ... -thorne : hey . you know ... family court is all about protecting the child . that 's exactly what we 're doing for will . and bill , he may try to paint it ugly , but , uh , fact is , it 's -- it 's not . the judge will see right through it . katie : i hope you 're right . because i know bill . and he will do whatever is necessary to win . bill : liam , i know you 're testifying for katie tomorrow . liam : yeah , which is why we should n't be talking about this right now . bill : we can talk about it . this is not a criminal trial , all right ? i 'm not witness - tampering . i 'm just a father talking to his son . liam : you know it 's been a minute since i 've thought of you as my father ? bill : i know . that 's my fault . that 's on me . and i 've apologized for it . and i will apologize for as long as it takes . what i did was cruel , son . and i 'll regret it for the rest of my life . wyatt : yeah , and maybe you should just leave it at that , do n't you think ? bill : i ca n't leave it at that , wyatt . if i lose custody of will tomorrow , i 'll be nothing more than a shadow in his life . is that what you wanted when you were little boys ? liam : no , but -- but it 's what we had . bill : that 's because i did n't know you existed . but will does know me . and he 's forgotten that i was his rock when his mother was going through issue after issue . it was me . and only recently have i disappointed him . but i 'm trying to make up for that . i want that chance to be a father . i want a second chance . do n't you want that for will ?

bill : what i 'm saying is that katie hands me custody papers , and in the blink of an eye , she is cobbling a family together to try and impress the judge . liam : yeah , and they also happen to love each other . the custody issue is because you were a neglectful parent , period . bill : you 're right , liam . i was . and i 've learned my lesson . i want to be a good father . not just to will . to both of you . wyatt : but that 's probably gon na take some time , dad . bill : i 'm willing to give it all the time it needs , wyatt . but right now , i have a little boy who needs his father . i was n't there for you two when you were his age , but i am there right now for will . and i want that opportunity . wyatt : okay . and you 'll probably get that opportunity regardless of what happens tomorrow . bill : i ca n't do that , wyatt . i ca n't take that chance . i want equal custody . nothing less . holidays together . the three of you growing up as brothers , with a dad who gives a damn . that 's what i want . family . that 's what i need . and will needs it , too . now , i know i have no right to ask this , but i need your help . katie : you know , it 's funny . i wondered if i would ever wear one of these again . thorne : yeah , me , too . katie : and yet here we are . thorne : i 'm exactly where i want to be . katie : and hopefully tomorrow the last piece of the puzzle will fit into place . thorne : it will . there 's no way the judge is gon na rule against us . we 're doing what 's best for will . katie : [ sighs ] i 'm nervous . going up against bill ... -thorne : hey . you know ... family court is all about protecting the child . that 's exactly what we 're doing for will . and bill , he may try to paint it ugly , but , uh , fact is , it 's -- it 's not . the judge will see right through it . katie : i hope you 're right . because i know bill . and he will do whatever is necessary to win . bill : liam , i know you 're testifying for katie tomorrow . liam : yeah , which is why we should n't be talking about this right now . bill : we can talk about it . this is not a criminal trial , all right ? i 'm not witness - tampering . i 'm just a father talking to his son . liam : you know it 's been a minute since i 've thought of you as my father ? bill : i know . that 's my fault . that 's on me . and i 've apologized for it . and i will apologize for as long as it takes . what i did was cruel , son . and i 'll regret it for the rest of my life . wyatt : yeah , and maybe you should just leave it at that , do n't you think ? bill : i ca n't leave it at that , wyatt . if i lose custody of will tomorrow , i 'll be nothing more than a shadow in his life . is that what you wanted when you were little boys ? liam : no , but -- but it 's what we had . bill : that 's because i did n't know you existed . but will does know me . and he 's forgotten that i was his rock when his mother was going through issue after issue . it was me . and only recently have i disappointed him . but i 'm trying to make up for that . i want that chance to be a father . i want a second chance . do n't you want that for will ? to be close with his father ? to grow up that way ? you guys did n't have that , and look what it cost you . do n't pass that curse on to your little brother , liam . please , son . please remember that when you 're testifying tomorrow . brooke : i do n't want to argue about bill . ridge : so , that man calls you in to testify without even talking to you about it . he 's trying to pull a fast one . he 's trying to use you in some way . i mean , think about it . you 're gon na be a star witness and -- and he has n't even talked to you , has n't spoken to you about it ? he does n't know what you 're gon na say . but maybe this is good . maybe this is a good thing . you can show your sister how loyal you are , and how you 're gon na defend her . brooke : [ sighs ] look , we just came back from the most beautiful , romantic wedding . is there any way we can get back to that feeling and stop talking about bill ?

duncan : i 'll accept that you nor your client knew anything about it . but it is a part of the record now , mr. kiriakis . ms. brady , you 'll go first . why should miss lane be awarded custody of this child ? belle : thank you , your honor . fact : nicole walker and her fiancé daniel jonas signed a document giving chloe lane blanket permission to be implanted with one of their embryos at any time . the first attempt failed . and then , sadly , dr . jonas was then killed in a tragic car accident , after which miss lane attempted a second pregnancy , and this one was successful . chloe : i did n't know it at first . belle : but when she did realize that she was carrying their baby , she also discovered that miss walker was in a very serious relationship with an extremely dangerous man named deimos kiriakis . justin : your honor , objection . miss lane has shown no evidence proving that this man is dangerous in any way . belle : your honor , deimos kiriakis crippled a woman in order to extract money from her husband , his brother . i can add more instances of his behavior if you 'd like . duncan : overruled . let her finish . belle : your honor , nicole walker has biology on her side , yes . but that 's it . knowing full well what deimos kiriakis is capable of , she continues to plan a marriage to him , which would put baby holly in an environment that could threaten her welfare , possibly her existence . nicole : oh , that is not true ! belle : but of course that 's not the only reason that we would want to prove that miss walker is unfit to raise baby holly . justin : your honor , if i may -- duncan : no , you may not . i told you , let her finish . ms. brady ? belle : your honor , nicole walker in the past has been involved in pornographic films . in fact , she was quite the star . nicole : you are making it sound like -- you know -- belle : our list of felonies includes shooting her father , attempted murder of her ex - husband , multiple attempts to pass off someone else 's child as her own -- including pretending to be pregnant and then stealing samantha brady 's baby as she tried to pawn that off as her own -- and then , of course , there was the stunt involving my client and a flesh - eating bacteria . i think you see where i 'm going with this , your honor . justin : your honor , these so - called facts are irrelevant . i could stand here and list chloe lane 's felonies and shortcomings , but it would take me all day to do so . the only relevant fact is that nicole walker is this child 's biological mother . duncan : you 'll get your chance , counselor . sit down . and this is the last time i 'm going to tell you this . belle : since the past seems to be so painful , why do n't we just focus on the present ? as i mentioned earlier , nicole walker is engaged to deimos kiriakis , who engaged in illegal contact with a sitting judge , trying to ensure the outcome of this case . your honor , she is deeply influenced by this man , knowing full well that he 's a danger to society . how influenced is she by him ? well , just recently , in order to protect her violent fiancé , miss walker stabbed and nearly killed a man . nicole : he was an assassin . belle : most people do n't have assassins coming after them . your honor , if baby holly were to be raised by nicole walker , her life would be in danger , and her formative years would be spent in the worst possible environment . i think the choice is really clear here . thank you .

belle : your honor , nicole walker in the past has been involved in pornographic films . in fact , she was quite the star . nicole : you are making it sound like -- you know -- belle : our list of felonies includes shooting her father , attempted murder of her ex - husband , multiple attempts to pass off someone else 's child as her own -- including pretending to be pregnant and then stealing samantha brady 's baby as she tried to pawn that off as her own -- and then , of course , there was the stunt involving my client and a flesh - eating bacteria . i think you see where i 'm going with this , your honor . justin : your honor , these so - called facts are irrelevant . i could stand here and list chloe lane 's felonies and shortcomings , but it would take me all day to do so . the only relevant fact is that nicole walker is this child 's biological mother . duncan : you 'll get your chance , counselor . sit down . and this is the last time i 'm going to tell you this . belle : since the past seems to be so painful , why do n't we just focus on the present ? as i mentioned earlier , nicole walker is engaged to deimos kiriakis , who engaged in illegal contact with a sitting judge , trying to ensure the outcome of this case . your honor , she is deeply influenced by this man , knowing full well that he 's a danger to society . how influenced is she by him ? well , just recently , in order to protect her violent fiancé , miss walker stabbed and nearly killed a man . nicole : he was an assassin . belle : most people do n't have assassins coming after them . your honor , if baby holly were to be raised by nicole walker , her life would be in danger , and her formative years would be spent in the worst possible environment . i think the choice is really clear here . thank you .

[ scene_break ] sami : tony turned down my offer ? what is he , insane ? e.j . : i think we both know the answer to that question . sami : you know what ? fine . if he wants to watch stefano die some slow , painful death , it is okay with me . e.j . : no , that 's not what tony wants . sami : that 's what he 's gon na get because he needs my baby 's stem cells to save stefano 's life . e.j . : samantha , he did n't even tell father . he wants the baby for himself . sami : oh , that son of a -- i will kill him before i let him touch my child . e.j . : take it easy . sami : i 'm not gon na take it easy . e.j . , this is my baby that we are talking about . and i 'm willing to let him have stem cells from my child , which everyone else thinks i 'm crazy to do , and that 's not enough for him ? e.j . : this is n't about saving my father with tony , okay ? this is about him positioning himself to be the head of my family . that 's what 's important to him . sami : fine . fine . let him let stefano die . let him take over your stupid family . you think i care ? e.j . : samantha , please . please . sami : i made the first move . and now the ball is in tony 's court . if he does n't want to do anything about it , that is his problem . e.j . : you 're wrong . it 's our problem 'cause he 's gon na try to kill us both .

nick : got to hand it to you , dad . you went from escaped convict to hero in less than a couple hours . summer : you know , grandpa saved grandma and mom because that 's just who he is . he 's not some dangerous criminal . luca : but ian ward is , and now he 's back in lockup where he belongs . summer : yeah , speaking of , have you talked to grandma at all ? is she okay ? nick : yeah . she 's a little shaky , but she 's tough . your aunt victoria 's with her now . luca : no fun time with travis ? that 's a change for victoria . nick : she 's fine . but she is concerned about your grandfather . i mean , it was a pretty big move . he tracked ian down a couple hours after he was shot and went after him . luca : not to mention breaking out of custody to do it . summer : the courts ca n't hold that against him , can they ? add more time to his sentence ? nick : mom and phyllis are fine . ian 's locked up . but keep in mind , adam got out of his sentence in a very similar situation . your grandfather 's case for appeal has never been stronger . i mean , this could n't have worked out better even if he 'd planned it . esther : amazing that victor saved nikki and phyllis after getting a gsw . gsw . gunshot wound . billy : oh , yeah . i think you 've been watching a little too much csi : genoa city . esther : oh , just imagine what phyllis and nikki were going through , being trapped by that lunatic . oh , my god . i have been there . your whole life just flashes before your eyes . thank god that victor broke out of the hospital to save them . and poor jack ! he must have just been worried sick about phyllis . how horrible to realize that the fate of the woman you love is trapped in some other man 's hands , and there 's absolutely nothing you can do about it . jack : i brought you some coffee . phyllis : [ chuckles ] you sure did . [ sighs ] i need it . i did n't get much sleep last night . jack : yeah , you tossed and turned all night . phyllis : did i keep you up ? jack : no , no , no , no . i woke up early , and i just ... wanted to watch over you , i suppose , 'cause i was n't there yesterday . it was with you all night , was n't it ? in your dreams . what happened at the cabin . phyllis : yeah . the cabin . it sure was . jack : well , you 're safe now . everything 's okay . nothing like that 's gon na happen again . hilary : hey , jack . it 's hilary . i am so relieved to hear that phyllis is home safe . i wo n't bother you , so i 'll make this quick . i had my first treatment . now all that is left is to pray . call me when you can , okay ? foundation business . all right . take care . [ knock on door ] hilary : maybe you ca n't stay away . devon . devon : hey . can i , uh , come in ? these probably need water . hilary : i - i know that this is your place , but , um ... i did n't invite you in , so ... devon : i know you did n't . but i told you that i wanted to be by your side during your recovery . whatever it takes , and whatever you need . hilary : what makes you think that what i need is you ? [ door opens ] ashley : [ gasps ] hi ! you 're back ! abby : hi . ashley : oh , i missed you . abby : oh , i missed you . ashley : how are ben and max ? abby : um , we will get to that . uh , have you seen dad ? ashley : no . i 'm not exactly on the visitor 's list . abby : well , neither am i. i have to wait for permission . i went straight to the hospital as soon as i got back in town , and they turned me away . ashley : that 's not very surprising considering he is still a prisoner . even though he managed to escape custody because of that sympathetic female visitor . abby : mm , yes . the prison doctor . ashley : yeah . abby : i heard . dad 's still got it , even in jail . ashley : yeah , and then he went and , uh , saved nikki and phyllis . abby : yeah . ashley : he 's nothing if he 's not capable , right ? abby : well , so is my mother . you look great . ashley : oh , thank you . abby : you look healthy , and ... ashley : i am . you know , i love that you 're back at jabot , but i just hope that it 's not because hilary forced you out of the lab . ashley : no . no , no . i 'm here because i want to be . but i do n't want to talk about myself . i want to talk about you . is max on his way home ? abby : well , mom , um ... ashley : honey , i do n't understand . i thought you said that the surgery went well . max 's tumor was removed , and he got through the surgery okay . abby : well , nothing happened during the surgery , but after ... max started having seizures . and the doctors ca n't figure out how to control them , so he has memory loss , and his motor skills are impaired . ashley : oh , my god . that poor little boy . abby : [ sighs ] ashley : oh , abby , he 's been through so much in his short life . is n't there therapy or rehabilitation ? abby : well , the doctors and nurses are trying to figure out a treatment , but they ca n't promise anything . mom , max should be here . he should be at day camp , or he should be at the club swimming , or at the ranch learning how to ride . max does n't deserve this life . and watching him go through all of this feels like i 've lost two children . my baby and ben 's son . ashley : oh , honey . devon : well , it seems like you 're getting back to your old self . does that , uh , mean that neville 's protocol is working ? hilary : we do n't know . okay ? i do n't know . sometimes i have good days , and then i have ... other days . devon : let me be there for you for all the days . good or bad . let me help you . hilary : [ scoffs ] save it . your help , it comes with strings . you want to change me . you think i 'm such a horrible person because i told jack what neil did to me . i 'm so awful because i fight for what i want . if i have leverage , i use it . if i have information , i use it . that 's the kind of person that i am , and you ca n't stand it . devon : i have always loved exactly who you are . that 's not true . hilary : [ scoffs ] wow . you know , you 're a pretty good liar , devon . you 're trying to stay on my good side so you can hold onto your billions . that 's what this is about . devon : all right , this -- hilary : [ scoffs ] devon : this has nothing to do with money , and everything to do with our marriage . okay ? for better or worse , for richer or poorer , for sickness and in health , we said . hilary : yeah , i know the words . you know , it never meant that much to you when i was married to your father . yeah , i guess it did n't mean that much to me , either . devon : honey , that 's not true . all right ? you and i got together because we could n't be apart . that has n't changed for me . i know that you 're a strong woman , but no one should have to go through what you 're going through right now alone . okay ? it 's okay if you need me . i need you . hilary : i 'm gon na get through this the way that i 've gotten through everything else in my life . on my own . now get out . get out ! summer : grandpa saved grandma because he loves her . it was n't just some plan to get him out of jail . nick : yes , but now he has grounds for appeal , and he knows that . summer : okay , adam is free because he helped at some tower fire . grandpa is way more of a hero than adam will ever be . and if the review boards ca n't see that , i will go down there and tell them that myself . luca : summer , you are the most loyal person i 've ever met . nick : yes , she is . but here 's the thing . once dad gets out of prison , he 's gon na march right back into this office . and once he does , everything 's gon na change . for everyone . including everyone in this room . summer : what are you trying to say ? that you think he 's gon na fire us ? nick : summer , dad already admitted he 's trying to teach everyone in this family a lesson , and that was from inside prison . once he gets out and it 's up close and personal , things are gon na get messy fast . just ask jack and phyllis and billy , people who have crossed him in the past . victor newman never forgives . and he never forgets . billy : yes , victor played the hero twice in one day . not only did he save phyllis and nikki , but he testified that adam is no killer . esther : you know , i do n't know if adam killed that poor bingham woman , but he did take a life . our little dee dee . a perfect , sweet , innocent little life . and not even victor newman can rewrite that sad story . but adam 's gon na get away with it again , is n't he ? the newmans always win out . billy : yes , they do . adam will probably walk . victor will maneuver his way out of prison somehow . and the rest of us are gon na have to duck and cover , because there 's gon na be hell to pay . esther : well , who does n't victor hate at this point ? you 're gon na have to wear a helmet . billy : [ scoffs ] esther : and phyllis , too . i just hope he just did n't save her life to make it more miserable . she deserves better than that . billy : you 're a wise woman , es . do n't let me forget that . esther : what 'd i say ? phyllis : i ca n't just sit here and wallow all day and think , especially when i need to be at work . jack : wait a minute . you do n't have to prove how tough you are . you are unbreakable . just like our marriage . as i told billy . phyllis : you talked to billy about our marriage ? why ? jack : oh , he was making a lot of noise about marriages failing , couples growing apart . he 's in a very dark place . convinced that all marriages lead to divorce . even you and me . phyllis : why would he say something like that ? jack : why indeed ? after everything you and i have been through , billy ca n't even begin to comprehend what we 've endured . and somehow we came out stronger because of it . phyllis : did billy back off ? jack : well , i made my point . but you know what , the truth is billy is jealous . he sees what we have , he sees who we are together , and he wants to have that for himself . and he could . he very well could if he 'd stop that bimbo - of - the- month club and start rebuilding something with victoria . phyllis : okay , look , i do n't want to talk about your brother anymore , all right ? jack : okay . okay . anything more i can get you ? anything at all , as long as it keeps your right here . phyllis : okay , you just said i was unbreakable . jack : you are . i meant it . phyllis : you know what , ian does not get to take anything away from me , especially a day of work . so i am gon na go ahead and get to jabot , all right ? jack : okay . i ca n't stop you . on one condition . no more thinking about the cabin . phyllis : you have my word . nick : victoria 's gon na need some support . she 's very concerned about our parents right now , so she 's gon na need some backup while i 'm gone . summer : wait , gone ? where are you going ? luca : what , are you backing away from the company ? nick : no . i 'm gon na go to the oil refinery . i 'm gon na check things out for myself . see who opened that damn valve and is trying to tank our business . summer : well , that 's good , 'cause i 'm sick of everyone trying to blame grandpa for that . nick : look , i hate to break it to you , kiddo , but this still could lead back to your grandfather . i mean , he did n't take credit for this specifically , but he did admit to trying to teach us all a lesson . luca : yeah , but victor protected adam . he 's clearly not trying to punish anyone now . nick : whoever planned this sabotage , there is at least one traitor on the inside . and i 'm gon na figure out who it is . luca : yeah , but if you go in yourself , the press will pounce on it . they 'll -- they 'll assume it 's an ongoing threat . nick : yeah , i do n't think a little media would be the worst thing . i want the world to know this company will not stand for one more round of sabotage . summer : yeah , i mean , you know , that 's something that my grandpa would do . go there and make his presence felt . luca : well , there is another option . let me go in your place . lily : oh , god . what happened ? devon : save these for a funeral . lily : what , did she die ? do n't get my hopes up . okay , i 'm sorry . that was wrong . sort of . devon : my marriage is dead , and any feelings that hilary had for me are gone . lily : no , you have not lost her or your marriage yet . and you wo n't if you want to keep what 's yours . devon : oh , man . what are you talking about , this place and your job ? lily : no , i can find a job anywhere , but ... i mean , this club is my home . you know , the staff is my family . i 'm not gon na lose that because hilary is some vengeful shrew . so go back up there -- devon : and do what ? what ? fight for a loveless marriage 'cause it makes you feel better ? lily : please do n't tell me that you 're still in love with her . jack : hey , devon . oh , beautiful flowers . you taking those up to hilary ? lily : uh , no . these are actually for the front desk . jack : how are things with you and hilary ? any improvement ? devon : well , i 'm sure you 're here to speak to her , so i 'll let her fill you in . lily : wait . here . for luck . devon : thanks . jack : do i have to worry about devon 's mood ? lily : no , he 'll be okay . i 'll work on him . hilary : jack . i 'll see you at the bar . lily : is there a meeting for the foundation ? 'cause i did n't see my father this morning . jack : actually , neil is not going to be a part of it . uh , if you 'll excuse me . lily : uh , jack ... jack : yeah ? lily : never mind . jack : hey , i got your message . i was worried about you , but ... wow . looks like the new medication is really working . you look wonderful . hilary : no , it 's makeup and sheer willpower . willpower that i needed to tell devon to leave me alone . jack : and why would you do that ? hilary : because i do n't want his pity , jack . jack : that man loves you , hilary . hilary : he did . and now it 's just pity and resentment and disgust . that is all that is left . i just -- i ... i 'm tired . it 's over for me and my marriage . jack : no , no , no . i 'm not gon na let you talk that way . i 'm not gon na let you give up on your life or your marriage . hilary : what is the point of fighting if there 's nothing to fight for ? jack : i 've seen the love that you and devon have . it did n't just go away . you hit a rough patch . that 's when you double down . that 's when you love a little harder . believe me , it would have been a whole lot easier for phyllis and me to throw up our hands and walk away many times . we did n't . and look what we have . look , if we can do it , so can you and devon . hilary : can we not talk about this here ? with lily just staring , judging me ? jack : okay . how can i help ? hilary : can you take me back upstairs ? jack : yeah . come on . abby : thank you . phyllis : abby ? oh , i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to interrupt . abby : no , um , it 's fine . everything 's fine . and , um , you 're fine , which is a huge relief . phyllis : yeah , it is good . it 's good to see you back . abby : thank you . phyllis : you know , if you want to catch up with your mom , i 'm happy to go to another office . abby : no , um , i was just leaving . phyllis : on your way to see victor ? is he able to see visitors ? abby : i have n't seen him yet , but i 've been trying . and i will keep trying until he knows how relieved i am that he 's safe . phyllis : and i suppose i should give him a big thank you . abby : well , i can pass that along for you . phyllis : well , you better not . it might send him into shock . abby : well , um , i will let you two get back to work . ashley : um ... could you cover for me here for a little bit ? phyllis : yeah , absolutely . ashley : i 'm coming with you . abby : mom ... phyllis : better not argue . i think she 's gon na win this one . abby : bye . phyllis : bye . [ door opens ] abby : mom , you do n't have to hold my hand . you have a job , and i just showed up a weeping mess . ashley : it 's okay . phyllis can handle everything on her own . abby : but you just started back at jabot . ashley : and you just got back into town . esther : ohh ! ashley : hi , there . esther : hi . look who 's here . how are you , abby ? oh , and that poor little boy . i -- ashley : thank you so much for asking . could you get us a couple of iced cappuccinos ? esther : oh , of course . extra creamy . ashley : thank you so much . abby : i do n't even know what to say to people yet . ashley : i know . i take it ben 's with max right now ? abby : we found him a long - term - care facility closer to home , so ben 's with max now , and i 'm here to see dad . ashley : how 's ben holding up with everything ? abby : it 's hard on him . i mean , he wants to fix his son , and he ca n't . and the more i try to help , i just make things worse . ashley : i 'm sure he feels like he has to be strong for everybody , do n't you think ? abby : i think he blames me . i think that ben feels like what happened to his son is all my fault . nick : you go in my place ? how exactly is that a better option ? luca : well , first of all , i 've been right beside victoria since the first leak . hell , i - i knew about it before she did . i have as much information as anyone . but here 's the key . i 'm nobody . i 'm just a random suit . i can visit the facility , ask some questions , look around . nobody will bat an eye . summer : okay , have you been thinking about this ? planning on going ? luca : no . honestly , it did n't occur to me till nick mentioned it . but , really , it makes sense , right ? if and when your grandfather gets a new hearing , you all need to be here for it . i 'm not a newman , so i 'm expendable on that front . nick : well , i do n't think summer would agree with that . and i certainly disagree with some random suit going and not me . i want everyone in that company to know that we 're not blaming anyone but the person who did this . i want them all to know their jobs are safe . and that message needs to come from me or someone else in this family . trust is everything , and sneaking in and out will just blow that all to hell . luca : just trying to be useful . nick : and you can be . by staying here and supporting victoria . unless you have a problem with that . phyllis : jack is n't here . billy : i did n't come here to see jack . you know that . i had to see you . you know i wanted to race back to that cabin when i heard about ian ward . i should n't have left you there in the first place . i 'm sorry about that . phyllis : i told you to go because i needed to think . billy : yeah , and what did thinking get you ? a standoff with ian ward . phyllis : why did you say what you said to jack ? billy : what are you talking about ? phyllis : you told him you thought our marriage was doomed . billy : that 's ... that 's not what i said . not exactly . phyllis : but you said something close to that . you wanted to give him a subtle heads up that you were thinking i was getting ready to end my marriage . billy : what is this ? you 're staying with him ? you 're not gon na leave him to be with me ? hilary : this is n't my room . jack : you just said upstairs . fresh air , sunshine , and no lily lurking . hilary : true . or maybe you 're just afraid to be alone with me in my suite . jack : if you 're trying to avoid lily 's judgment , being alone in your room with me is not gon na make it easier . hilary : yeah , because if we 're alone together , it could n't possibly be friendship . jack : okay , you said you had foundation business to catch me up on . so catch me up . we said we wanted to help people . let 's find a way to help them . hilary ? you okay ? hilary : yeah , um ... i do n't know . jack : what is it ? you want me to call dr. neville ? hilary : i do n't think dr. neville could help me with this . jack : what 's going on ? what are you feeling ? hilary : i 'm feeling ... jack : um ... if -- if i sent the wrong signals , i 'm very sorry . hilary : i do n't know -- um ... this -- this must be simon 's protocol or something . i - i have -- i 've been having mood swings and lack of self - control and -- oh , my god . in a public place . what is wrong with me ? jack : no -- no one saw anything . it 's -- it 's -- it 's all right . hilary : jack , you are my friend . you 're my colleague . you 're the first person that i told when i relapsed . i do n't want you to think that i would jeopardize -- i just -- i hope that you know that i would never risk our friendship . jack : no , no . i do know that . it 's obviously this new medication . but you need to tell neville about the side effects . hilary : no , i will tell him . i will tell him right away . jack : but tell him you want to get healthy , but you ca n't have the cure trash the rest of your life . you need to protect your marriage . hilary : my marriage is over . but what you and phyllis have , it 's a sacred thing , and this will -- will never happen again . jack : no , it wo n't . listen , i think maybe i should go . you take care . we 'll talk later , okay ? hilary : okay . jack , you 're a good man . and a good friend . abby : after the surgery , ben just shut down . he told me i did n't need to go with him when he visited his son , and then he would come home , and he would refuse to talk about what happened . i thought that finding a facility closer to genoa city , i thought that maybe we could find our balance , that we could be a team again . but i just -- i do n't think that 's gon na happen . ashley : honey , ben is hurting for his son , and he 's scared . but he does n't blame you . i mean , that does n't make any sense . max had a brain tumor . that 's nobody 's fault . least of all yours . i mean , you were the victim here . you lost your baby . ben knows that . abby : yeah . max does n't have that memory anymore . which is a blessing for his sake . i mean , to live with that ? that would just be awful . ashley : well , ben remembers . i 'm sure it causes him a lot of pain . and guilt , because he did n't listen to you long before that happened . abby : ben said that max wanted to have the surgery so he would n't be bad anymore , so that i would n't be afraid of him . and everything that 's happened since then , ben holds me responsible . i know it . i can feel it . ashley : honey , ben is not cruel , and he 's not selfish , and he 's certainly not irrational . surgery was the logical next step to take . and he knew the risks , as well as the benefits . and , by the way , max could still heal and recover . just like your marriage . it 's just gon na take some faith and a love of love . the two of you can get through this together . luca : i have no problem supporting victoria and summer . whatever they need , that 's what i 'm here to do . nick : good . luca : you know , since , uh , victoria will probably get sucked into victor 's legal issues , i might as well start pitching in now . one of , uh , newman 's petroleum partners needs some reassurance . what do you think about me taking that meeting now ? unless you both think i should stay out of it . nick : uh , that 'll be just fine . just do n't mention my trip to anyone . luca : of course . i 'll keep you both posted . summer : okay . luca : see you later . nick : before i go , i want to go over some details with you . summer : do you really need to go to the refinery , or do you just not want luca to handle it ? nick : now , that 's funny , because i was just about to ask you the same thing . phyllis : when you left me at the cabin , i thought that i had made my decision . i knew it was gon na be ugly . i knew that it was gon na be painful . but i was ready to go back to town and tell jack about us . about what i wanted . and then all of a sudden , ian bursts in with nikki and all hell breaks loose . billy : so , if i would have been there , if i would have stayed -- phyllis : it does n't matter . nikki and i were dealing with a lunatic . and then , of all people , victor decides to come in and save us . the one guy that trashed my life . billy : so , is that how you celebrate being alive , then ? you run back into jack 's arms ? not mine ? y - you do n't -- you do n't come to me ? were you sitting in the cabin thinking about your life , thinking about what 's most important to you , what you have to live for ? and , what , i - i did n't make the cut ? phyllis : you do n't know what i thought . you do n't know what i felt . jack and i made it back from a misery you ca n't even begin to understand . i do n't even understand it . what we have is real . and it is special . billy : is that why you want me so much , phyllis ? because what you have with jack is real , and it 's special ? phyllis : [ sighs ] billy : you 're willing to risk your -- your special marriage to sneak off to my house ? what we have is real . when we 're together , that is real . when you say you love me , that is real . phyllis : i love you both . billy : you know , if jack 's not good enough for you now , he 's never gon na be good enough . you understand that , right ? when you 're with me , do you think about being anywhere else ? do you think about being with anyone else ? phyllis : i 'm asking you . i need time . i need to know i 'm making the right decision . billy : okay . fine . you want time , i 'll give you time . phyllis : [ sighs ] billy : i 'll leave you to it . jack : hey , i could hear your voice halfway down the hall . what -- what are you so worked up about ? billy : i 'm not worked up . my voice carries . i came here to see ashley , and i ... ran into phyllis . i did not expect to see her here after everything she 's been through . jack : well , you know phyllis . phyllis : and there is work to be done , so i am not gon na let the thought of a gun - waving lunatic keep me from it . jack : i rest my case . so , what 'd you stop by to see ashley about ? billy : i 'm not here to steal trade secrets if that 's what you 're worried about , jack . jack : i had n't even considered that till you mentioned it . i 'll tell ashley you dropped by . billy : thank you . phyllis . i meant it . take your time . do n't rush into anything until you 're good and ready . phyllis : i never do . jack : he seem a little off to you ? phyllis : who can tell ? i do n't know . jack : i can tell when you 're off . and you do seem off . you want to tell me what really happened with you two ? lily : uh - oh . how does dr. neville feel about you mixing medication with some bubbly ? will you pass out and hit your head ? 'cause that 'd be a shame . for the floor . hilary : i appreciate your concern . but i intend to live a very long and healthy life . and i will definitely be getting everything that 's coming to me . lily : oh . [ chuckles ] yeah , fingers crossed on that last part . hilary : can i buy you a drink ? especially since this might be your last one , because soon i will own this place , and the security , they will be under strict instructions to keep you out . lily : aww , look at you , counting your eggs before they hatch . see , this place still belongs to devon , and jack still belongs to phyllis . and all you have is your sparkling personality . so drink up . esther : hey , devon . can i get you anything ? coffee ? maple oat cake ? it 's got flaxseed . it 's very healthy . devon : is a , uh , different life on the menu ? esther : now , if you had a different life , you would n't be mrs. c. 's grandson , and that would be a shame . devon : yeah . she was a - a wonderful woman who knew how to handle any and everything , and i really could use someone like that right now . esther : you know , i 'm not mrs. c. , but if you need someone to talk to , i 'm -- i 'm happy to listen . devon : i appreciate that , but i think i 'd be too ashamed to ask katherine even if she were here . esther : ashamed ? why ? devon : why ? because , um , she left me a fortune , and i 've done nothing with it . you know , i - i have n't made the world a better place . just drove some people crazy with greed . that 's about it . esther : that 's not true . look at all the work you 've done with that odd doctor , and -- and the foundation with your father and jack . devon : all i do is write checks . you know , and sometimes that 's just not enough for people . esther : you know , i think mrs. c. would say that you 're learning something very important . devon : and what would that be ? esther : you know , money can bring out the worst in some people . but it can also bring out the best in others , too . and it 's up to you on how you use it , who you use it for , and the people you surround yourself with . at least , i think that 's what she would say . [ chuckles ] devon : yeah . esther : what 's that for ? devon : uh , it 's -- it 's for you being you . esther : ah . ashley : i mean , honestly , abby , you and ben have survived the worst that life can throw at a couple . and what max is suffering does n't have to break the two of you . abby : but ben wo n't lean on me . he wo n't let me in . ashley : you need to keep offering . or maybe you should start demanding . 'cause you know what , you can be a pretty willful person . maybe it 's time to put that to good use . you have to make sure that ben knows you 're not giving up , and you 're not backing down . [ cell phone rings ] ashley : answer it . he needs you . abby : i just got butterflies from my husband calling me . ben ? hi . nick : look , everyone with access to certain newman computers and the facility is a suspect . so if you have questions about luca , it 's understandable . summer : yeah , but you still think that grandpa 's the one behind it all . nick : summer , he admitted to trying to teach the whole family a lesson . summer : okay , but he did n't admit to being behind the oil spills . nick : okay , well , let 's look at the facts , all right ? dad 's very hurt , and he feels betrayed by everyone in this family except you . there is a strong likelihood that he has someone here in the company following his orders . someone who 's expecting a big payoff if and when dad comes back . summer : someone like luca . god , i just ca n't help but think about how you told me to trust my gut . nick : and i meant that . look , summer , do you think something is not right with luca ? abby : oh , they did ? they did . um ... thank you for letting me know . hey , now that i have you on the phone , do you think you have some time to maybe , uh -- okay . yeah . sure . yeah . i love yo -- love you . ashley : what did he say ? abby : um , the department of corrections called . they approved my visit to dad at the hospital . so , um , i 'm gon na go to the hospital . ashley : wait a second . ben misses you . abby : really ? i mean , her certainly did n't say that . he did n't even want to talk to me . ashley : well , maybe he does n't have all the right words right now , but ... he clearly wanted to hear your voice . abby : you really think so ? ashley : absolutely . abby : bye . ashley : bye , honey . summer : i 'm not saying that anything 's wrong ... [ sighs ] nick : hey , there 's no judgment here . all right ? i promise . what do you got ? summer : okay , it 's just ... when ian kidnapped mom and grandma , and grandpa went to ... save them , luca got in the way of me finding out . not on purpose , but i 'm just saying that i did n't find out until i had missed all those messages . nick : so , your family 's in danger . you did n't know . and luca had an explanation for that . summer : but , i mean , he knew that i had left adam 's trial to avoid all the family in - fighting . and , you know , he was just trying to protect me . nick : why ? why , because you 're a snowflake ? summer , you are tougher than that . you do n't need protection . but since i am your old man , maybe you 'll allow me to do it sometime ? thanks for humoring me . summer : [ chuckles ] uh , yeah , i just -- i want to believe in luca . i just ... you know , things like this make me wonder . nick : look , i can not go on this trip unless i know you 're here keeping your eyes open . take care of yourself . trust your instincts . and never , ever , ever forget that you are not a snowflake . you 're supergirl . luca : we have a problem . nick newman is on his way there . lily : i 'm not gon na waste perfectly good flowers just because hilary is the worst . devon : well , good . 'cause there 's no funeral as of yet . lily : oh . this is good . someone lit a fire under you . who was it ? devon : it was katherine . lily : katherine chancellor ? devon : yeah . i just thought to myself , `` what would katherine do ? `` and the answer to that question is to fight like hell and not let hilary destroy our family . lily : well , god bless katherine . she always comes through . devon : yeah . billy : [ sighs ] i 'll have what she 's having , please . hilary : oh , you must be celebrating . jack has his wife back safe and sound . billy : that 's right . to happy endings . phyllis : there 's no point in lying . you deserve to know . jack : go on . phyllis : billy crossed the line . he assumed that our marriage is doomed . jack : honey , he 's just projecting his frustration over victoria . this really was n't about us . phyllis : yeah , well , i told him to keep his mouth shut . and i made that clear to him just now . this is our marriage . no one gets to speculate . no one gets to pass judgment . that 's why you heard the raised voices . that 's why he could n't get out of here soon enough . jack : do n't be too hard on my brother . he 's not the only one who wants what we have . phyllis : what are you talking about ? is there something you want to tell me ? jack : just this . maybe jealousy is n't such a bad thing if it gives billy something to shoot for . not everybody 's as lucky as we are . [ next_on ] chelsea : i 'm sorry to bother you , but i 'm really freaking out here . kevin : let me guess . victor ? adam : i 'm running out of time , here , all right ? and i need to prove this theory . dylan : and you think confronting victor 's the only way to do that . nikki : i do n't want to walk . | nick thought victor had a good chance of being granted an appeal after he saved nikki and phyllis . nick was concerned about what victor would do to the family if he were freed . nick told luca and summer that he was going to the oil refinery to investigate the oil spill . luca unsuccessfully tried to convince nick to let him go instead . after luca left , summer told nick she felt uneasy about the way luca kept her from checking her phone during her grandparents ' ordeal with ian . summer did n't think luca kept her in the dark on purpose , and she said he was trying to protect her . nick told summer that she was strong and did n't need luca 's protection . summer wanted to trust luca , but she was n't sure if she should . luca privately called someone and warned them that nick was going to the refinery . abby returned to town and told ashley that max survived surgery , but he now suffered from seizures , memory loss and loss of motor skills . abby got the feeling that ben blamed her max 's state . ashley did n't believe that . she told abby not to let ben push her away . abby had tried to visit victor , but she was n't on the approved visitor list . ben called to let her know the department of corrections was allowing the hospital to let abby visit . abby tried to talk to ben about their personal life , but he abruptly hung up after he delivered he message . | <s>[INST] nick : got to hand it to you , dad . you went from escaped convict to hero in less than a couple hours . summer : you know , grandpa saved grandma and mom because that 's just who he is . he 's not some dangerous criminal . luca : but ian ward is , and now he 's back in lockup where he belongs . summer : yeah , speaking of , have you talked to grandma at all ? is she okay ? nick : yeah . she 's a little shaky , but she 's tough . your aunt victoria 's with her now . luca : no fun time with travis ? that 's a change for victoria . nick : she 's fine . but she is concerned about your grandfather . i mean , it was a pretty big move . he tracked ian down a couple hours after he was shot and went after him . luca : not to mention breaking out of custody to do it . summer : the courts ca n't hold that against him , can they ? add more time to his sentence ? nick : mom and phyllis are fine . ian 's locked up . but keep in mind , adam got out of his sentence in a very similar situation . your grandfather 's case for appeal has never been stronger . i mean , this could n't have worked out better even if he 'd planned it . esther : amazing that victor saved nikki and phyllis after getting a gsw . gsw . gunshot wound . billy : oh , yeah . i think you 've been watching a little too much csi : genoa city . esther : oh , just imagine what phyllis and nikki were going through , being trapped by that lunatic . oh , my god . i have been there . your whole life just flashes before your eyes . thank god that victor broke out of the hospital to save them . and poor jack ! he must have just been worried sick about phyllis . how horrible to realize that the fate of the woman you love is trapped in some other man 's hands , and there 's absolutely nothing you can do about it . jack : i brought you some coffee . phyllis : [ chuckles ] you sure did . [ sighs ] i need it . i did n't get much sleep last night . jack : yeah , you tossed and turned all night . phyllis : did i keep you up ? jack : no , no , no , no . i woke up early , and i just ... wanted to watch over you , i suppose , 'cause i was n't there yesterday . it was with you all night , was n't it ? in your dreams . what happened at the cabin . phyllis : yeah . the cabin . it sure was . jack : well , you 're safe now . everything 's okay . nothing like that 's gon na happen again . hilary : hey , jack . it 's hilary . i am so relieved to hear that phyllis is home safe . i wo n't bother you , so i 'll make this quick . i had my first treatment . now all that is left is to pray . call me when you can , okay ? foundation business . all right . take care . [ knock on door ] hilary : maybe you ca n't stay away . devon . devon : hey . can i , uh , come in ? these probably need water . hilary : i - i know that this is your place , but , um ... i did n't invite you in , so ... devon : i know you did n't . but i told you that i wanted to be by your side during your recovery . whatever it takes , and whatever you need . hilary : what makes you think that what i need is you ? [ door opens ] ashley : [ gasps ] hi ! you 're back ! abby : hi . ashley : oh , i missed you . abby : oh , i missed you . ashley : how are ben and max ? abby : um , we will get to that . uh , have you seen dad ? ashley : no . i 'm not exactly on the visitor 's list . abby : well , neither am i. i have to wait for permission . i went straight to the hospital as soon as i got back in town , and they turned me away . ashley : that 's not very surprising considering he is still a prisoner . even though he managed to escape custody because of that sympathetic female visitor . abby : mm , yes . the prison doctor . ashley : yeah . abby : i heard . dad 's still got it , even in jail . ashley : yeah , and then he went and , uh , saved nikki and phyllis . abby : yeah . ashley : he 's nothing if he 's not capable , right ? abby : well , so is my mother . you look great . ashley : oh , thank you . abby : you look healthy , and ... ashley : i am . you know , i love that you 're back at jabot , but i just hope that it 's not because hilary forced you out of the lab . ashley : no . no , no . i 'm here because i want to be . but i do n't want to talk about myself . i want to talk about you . is max on his way home ? abby : well , mom , um ... ashley : honey , i do n't understand . i thought you said that the surgery went well . max 's tumor was removed , and he got through the surgery okay . abby : well , nothing happened during the surgery , but after ... max started having seizures . and the doctors ca n't figure out how to control them , so he has memory loss , and his motor skills are impaired . ashley : oh , my god . that poor little boy . abby : [ sighs ] ashley : oh , abby , he 's been through so much in his short life . is n't there therapy or rehabilitation ? abby : well , the doctors and nurses are trying to figure out a treatment , but they ca n't promise anything . mom , max should be here . he should be at day camp , or he should be at the club swimming , or at the ranch learning how to ride . max does n't deserve this life . and watching him go through all of this feels like i 've lost two children . my baby and ben 's son . ashley : oh , honey . devon : well , it seems like you 're getting back to your old self . does that , uh , mean that neville 's protocol is working ? hilary : we do n't know . okay ? i do n't know . sometimes i have good days , and then i have ... other days . devon : let me be there for you for all the days . good or bad . let me help you . hilary : [ scoffs ] save it . your help , it comes with strings . you want to change me . you think i 'm such a horrible person because i told jack what neil did to me . i 'm so awful because i fight for what i want . if i have leverage , i use it . if i have information , i use it . that 's the kind of person that i am , and you ca n't stand it . devon : i have always loved exactly who you are . that 's not true . hilary : [ scoffs ] wow . you know , you 're a pretty good liar , devon . you 're trying to stay on my good side so you can hold onto your billions . that 's what this is about . devon : all right , this -- hilary : [ scoffs ] devon : this has nothing to do with money , and everything to do with our marriage . okay ? for better or worse , for richer or poorer , for sickness and in health , we said . hilary : yeah , i know the words . you know , it never meant that much to you when i was married to your father . yeah , i guess it did n't mean that much to me , either . devon : honey , that 's not true . all right ? you and i got together because we could n't be apart . that has n't changed for me . i know that you 're a strong woman , but no one should have to go through what you 're going through right now alone . okay ? it 's okay if you need me . i need you . hilary : i 'm gon na get through this the way that i 've gotten through everything else in my life . on my own . now get out . get out ! summer : grandpa saved grandma because he loves her . it was n't just some plan to get him out of jail . nick : yes , but now he has grounds for appeal , and he knows that . summer : okay , adam is free because he helped at some tower fire . grandpa is way more of a hero than adam will ever be . and if the review boards ca n't see that , i will go down there and tell them that myself . luca : summer , you are the most loyal person i 've ever met . nick : yes , she is . but here 's the thing . once dad gets out of prison , he 's gon na march right back into this office . and once he does , everything 's gon na change . for everyone . including everyone in this room . summer : what are you trying to say ? that you think he 's gon na fire us ? nick : summer , dad already admitted he 's trying to teach everyone in this family a lesson , and that was from inside prison . once he gets out and it 's up close and personal , things are gon na get messy fast . just ask jack and phyllis and billy , people who have crossed him in the past . victor newman never forgives . and he never forgets . billy : yes , victor played the hero twice in one day . not only did he save phyllis and nikki , but he testified that adam is no killer . esther : you know , i do n't know if adam killed that poor bingham woman , but he did take a life . our little dee dee . a perfect , sweet , innocent little life . and not even victor newman can rewrite that sad story . but adam 's gon na get away with it again , is n't he ? the newmans always win out . billy : yes , they do . adam will probably walk . victor will maneuver his way out of prison somehow . and the rest of us are gon na have to duck and cover , because there 's gon na be hell to pay . esther : well , who does n't victor hate at this point ? you 're gon na have to wear a helmet . billy : [ scoffs ] esther : and phyllis , too . i just hope he just did n't save her life to make it more miserable . she deserves better than that . billy : you 're a wise woman , es . do n't let me forget that . esther : what 'd i say ? phyllis : i ca n't just sit here and wallow all day and think , especially when i need to be at work . jack : wait a minute . you do n't have to prove how tough you are . you are unbreakable . just like our marriage . as i told billy . phyllis : you talked to billy about our marriage ? why ? jack : oh , he was making a lot of noise about marriages failing , couples growing apart . he 's in a very dark place . convinced that all marriages lead to divorce . even you and me . phyllis : why would he say something like that ? jack : why indeed ? after everything you and i have been through , billy ca n't even begin to comprehend what we 've endured . and somehow we came out stronger because of it . phyllis : did billy back off ? jack : well , i made my point . but you know what , the truth is billy is jealous . he sees what we have , he sees who we are together , and he wants to have that for himself . and he could . he very well could if he 'd stop that bimbo - of - the- month club and start rebuilding something with victoria . phyllis : okay , look , i do n't want to talk about your brother anymore , all right ? jack : okay . okay . anything more i can get you ? anything at all , as long as it keeps your right here . phyllis : okay , you just said i was unbreakable . jack : you are . i meant it . phyllis : you know what , ian does not get to take anything away from me , especially a day of work . so i am gon na go ahead and get to jabot , all right ? jack : okay . i ca n't stop you . on one condition . no more thinking about the cabin . phyllis : you have my word . nick : victoria 's gon na need some support . she 's very concerned about our parents right now , so she 's gon na need some backup while i 'm gone . summer : wait , gone ? where are you going ? luca : what , are you backing away from the company ? nick : no . i 'm gon na go to the oil refinery . i 'm gon na check things out for myself . see who opened that damn valve and is trying to tank our business . summer : well , that 's good , 'cause i 'm sick of everyone trying to blame grandpa for that . nick : look , i hate to break it to you , kiddo , but this still could lead back to your grandfather . i mean , he did n't take credit for this specifically , but he did admit to trying to teach us all a lesson . luca : yeah , but victor protected adam . he 's clearly not trying to punish anyone now . nick : whoever planned this sabotage , there is at least one traitor on the inside . and i 'm gon na figure out who it is . luca : yeah , but if you go in yourself , the press will pounce on it . they 'll -- they 'll assume it 's an ongoing threat . nick : yeah , i do n't think a little media would be the worst thing . i want the world to know this company will not stand for one more round of sabotage . summer : yeah , i mean , you know , that 's something that my grandpa would do . go there and make his presence felt . luca : well , there is another option . let me go in your place . lily : oh , god . what happened ? devon : save these for a funeral . lily : what , did she die ? do n't get my hopes up . okay , i 'm sorry . that was wrong . sort of . devon : my marriage is dead , and any feelings that hilary had for me are gone . lily : no , you have not lost her or your marriage yet . and you wo n't if you want to keep what 's yours . devon : oh , man . what are you talking about , this place and your job ? lily : no , i can find a job anywhere , but ... i mean , this club is my home . you know , the staff is my family . i 'm not gon na lose that because hilary is some vengeful shrew . so go back up there -- devon : and do what ? what ? fight for a loveless marriage 'cause it makes you feel better ? lily : please do n't tell me that you 're still in love with her . jack : hey , devon . oh , beautiful flowers . you taking those up to hilary ? lily : uh , no . these are actually for the front desk . jack : how are things with you and hilary ? any improvement ? devon : well , i 'm sure you 're here to speak to her , so i 'll let her fill you in . lily : wait . here . for luck . devon : thanks . jack : do i have to worry about devon 's mood ? lily : no , he 'll be okay . i 'll work on him . hilary : jack . i 'll see you at the bar . lily : is there a meeting for the foundation ? 'cause i did n't see my father this morning . jack : actually , neil is not going to be a part of it . uh , if you 'll excuse me . lily : uh , jack ... jack : yeah ? lily : never mind . jack : hey , i got your message . i was worried about you , but ... wow . looks like the new medication is really working . you look wonderful . hilary : no , it 's makeup and sheer willpower . willpower that i needed to tell devon to leave me alone . jack : and why would you do that ? hilary : because i do n't want his pity , jack . jack : that man loves you , hilary . hilary : he did . and now it 's just pity and resentment and disgust . that is all that is left . i just -- i ... i 'm tired . it 's over for me and my marriage . jack : no , no , no . i 'm not gon na let you talk that way . i 'm not gon na let you give up on your life or your marriage . hilary : what is the point of fighting if there 's nothing to fight for ? jack : i 've seen the love that you and devon have . it did n't just go away . you hit a rough patch . that 's when you double down . that 's when you love a little harder . believe me , it would have been a whole lot easier for phyllis and me to throw up our hands and walk away many times . we did n't . and look what we have . look , if we can do it , so can you and devon . hilary : can we not talk about this here ? with lily just staring , judging me ? jack : okay . how can i help ? hilary : can you take me back upstairs ? jack : yeah . come on . abby : thank you . phyllis : abby ? oh , i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to interrupt . abby : no , um , it 's fine . everything 's fine . and , um , you 're fine , which is a huge relief . phyllis : yeah , it is good . it 's good to see you back . abby : thank you . phyllis : you know , if you want to catch up with your mom , i 'm happy to go to another office . abby : no , um , i was just leaving . phyllis : on your way to see victor ? is he able to see visitors ? abby : i have n't seen him yet , but i 've been trying . and i will keep trying until he knows how relieved i am that he 's safe . phyllis : and i suppose i should give him a big thank you . abby : well , i can pass that along for you . phyllis : well , you better not . it might send him into shock . abby : well , um , i will let you two get back to work . ashley : um ... could you cover for me here for a little bit ? phyllis : yeah , absolutely . ashley : i 'm coming with you . abby : mom ... phyllis : better not argue . i think she 's gon na win this one . abby : bye . phyllis : bye . [ door opens ] abby : mom , you do n't have to hold my hand . you have a job , and i just showed up a weeping mess . ashley : it 's okay . phyllis can handle everything on her own . abby : but you just started back at jabot . ashley : and you just got back into town . esther : ohh ! ashley : hi , there . esther : hi . look who 's here . how are you , abby ? oh , and that poor little boy . i -- ashley : thank you so much for asking . could you get us a couple of iced cappuccinos ? esther : oh , of course . extra creamy . ashley : thank you so much . abby : i do n't even know what to say to people yet . ashley : i know . i take it ben 's with max right now ? abby : we found him a long - term - care facility closer to home , so ben 's with max now , and i 'm here to see dad . ashley : how 's ben holding up with everything ? abby : it 's hard on him . i mean , he wants to fix his son , and he ca n't . and the more i try to help , i just make things worse . ashley : i 'm sure he feels like he has to be strong for everybody , do n't you think ? abby : i think he blames me . i think that ben feels like what happened to his son is all my fault . nick : you go in my place ? how exactly is that a better option ? luca : well , first of all , i 've been right beside victoria since the first leak . hell , i - i knew about it before she did . i have as much information as anyone . but here 's the key . i 'm nobody . i 'm just a random suit . i can visit the facility , ask some questions , look around . nobody will bat an eye . summer : okay , have you been thinking about this ? planning on going ? luca : no . honestly , it did n't occur to me till nick mentioned it . but , really , it makes sense , right ? if and when your grandfather gets a new hearing , you all need to be here for it . i 'm not a newman , so i 'm expendable on that front . nick : well , i do n't think summer would agree with that . and i certainly disagree with some random suit going and not me . i want everyone in that company to know that we 're not blaming anyone but the person who did this . i want them all to know their jobs are safe . and that message needs to come from me or someone else in this family . trust is everything , and sneaking in and out will just blow that all to hell . luca : just trying to be useful . nick : and you can be . by staying here and supporting victoria . unless you have a problem with that . phyllis : jack is n't here . billy : i did n't come here to see jack . you know that . i had to see you . you know i wanted to race back to that cabin when i heard about ian ward . i should n't have left you there in the first place . i 'm sorry about that . phyllis : i told you to go because i needed to think . billy : yeah , and what did thinking get you ? a standoff with ian ward . phyllis : why did you say what you said to jack ? billy : what are you talking about ? phyllis : you told him you thought our marriage was doomed . billy : that 's ... that 's not what i said . not exactly . phyllis : but you said something close to that . you wanted to give him a subtle heads up that you were thinking i was getting ready to end my marriage . billy : what is this ? you 're staying with him ? you 're not gon na leave him to be with me ? hilary : this is n't my room . jack : you just said upstairs . fresh air , sunshine , and no lily lurking . hilary : true . or maybe you 're just afraid to be alone with me in my suite . jack : if you 're trying to avoid lily 's judgment , being alone in your room with me is not gon na make it easier . hilary : yeah , because if we 're alone together , it could n't possibly be friendship . jack : okay , you said you had foundation business to catch me up on . so catch me up . we said we wanted to help people . let 's find a way to help them . hilary ? you okay ? hilary : yeah , um ... i do n't know . jack : what is it ? you want me to call dr. neville ? hilary : i do n't think dr. neville could help me with this . jack : what 's going on ? what are you feeling ? hilary : i 'm feeling ... jack : um ... if -- if i sent the wrong signals , i 'm very sorry . hilary : i do n't know -- um ... this -- this must be simon 's protocol or something . i - i have -- i 've been having mood swings and lack of self - control and -- oh , my god . in a public place . what is wrong with me ? jack : no -- no one saw anything . it 's -- it 's -- it 's all right . hilary : jack , you are my friend . you 're my colleague . you 're the first person that i told when i relapsed . i do n't want you to think that i would jeopardize -- i just -- i hope that you know that i would never risk our friendship . jack : no , no . i do know that . it 's obviously this new medication . but you need to tell neville about the side effects . hilary : no , i will tell him . i will tell him right away . jack : but tell him you want to get healthy , but you ca n't have the cure trash the rest of your life . you need to protect your marriage . hilary : my marriage is over . but what you and phyllis have , it 's a sacred thing , and this will -- will never happen again . jack : no , it wo n't . listen , i think maybe i should go . you take care . we 'll talk later , okay ? hilary : okay . jack , you 're a good man . and a good friend . abby : after the surgery , ben just shut down . he told me i did n't need to go with him when he visited his son , and then he would come home , and he would refuse to talk about what happened . i thought that finding a facility closer to genoa city , i thought that maybe we could find our balance , that we could be a team again . but i just -- i do n't think that 's gon na happen . ashley : honey , ben is hurting for his son , and he 's scared . but he does n't blame you . i mean , that does n't make any sense . max had a brain tumor . that 's nobody 's fault . least of all yours . i mean , you were the victim here . you lost your baby . ben knows that . abby : yeah . max does n't have that memory anymore . which is a blessing for his sake . i mean , to live with that ? that would just be awful . ashley : well , ben remembers . i 'm sure it causes him a lot of pain . and guilt , because he did n't listen to you long before that happened . abby : ben said that max wanted to have the surgery so he would n't be bad anymore , so that i would n't be afraid of him . and everything that 's happened since then , ben holds me responsible . i know it . i can feel it . ashley : honey , ben is not cruel , and he 's not selfish , and he 's certainly not irrational . surgery was the logical next step to take . and he knew the risks , as well as the benefits . and , by the way , max could still heal and recover . just like your marriage . it 's just gon na take some faith and a love of love . the two of you can get through this together . luca : i have no problem supporting victoria and summer . whatever they need , that 's what i 'm here to do . nick : good . luca : you know , since , uh , victoria will probably get sucked into victor 's legal issues , i might as well start pitching in now . one of , uh , newman 's petroleum partners needs some reassurance . what do you think about me taking that meeting now ? unless you both think i should stay out of it . nick : uh , that 'll be just fine . just do n't mention my trip to anyone . luca : of course . i 'll keep you both posted . summer : okay . luca : see you later . nick : before i go , i want to go over some details with you . summer : do you really need to go to the refinery , or do you just not want luca to handle it ? nick : now , that 's funny , because i was just about to ask you the same thing . phyllis : when you left me at the cabin , i thought that i had made my decision . i knew it was gon na be ugly . i knew that it was gon na be painful . but i was ready to go back to town and tell jack about us . about what i wanted . and then all of a sudden , ian bursts in with nikki and all hell breaks loose . billy : so , if i would have been there , if i would have stayed -- phyllis : it does n't matter . nikki and i were dealing with a lunatic . and then , of all people , victor decides to come in and save us . the one guy that trashed my life . billy : so , is that how you celebrate being alive , then ? you run back into jack 's arms ? not mine ? y - you do n't -- you do n't come to me ? were you sitting in the cabin thinking about your life , thinking about what 's most important to you , what you have to live for ? and , what , i - i did n't make the cut ? phyllis : you do n't know what i thought . you do n't know what i felt . jack and i made it back from a misery you ca n't even begin to understand . i do n't even understand it . what we have is real . and it is special . billy : is that why you want me so much , phyllis ? because what you have with jack is real , and it 's special ? phyllis : [ sighs ] billy : you 're willing to risk your -- your special marriage to sneak off to my house ? what we have is real . when we 're together , that is real . when you say you love me , that is real . phyllis : i love you both . billy : you know , if jack 's not good enough for you now , he 's never gon na be good enough . you understand that , right ? when you 're with me , do you think about being anywhere else ? do you think about being with anyone else ? phyllis : i 'm asking you . i need time . i need to know i 'm making the right decision . billy : okay . fine . you want time , i 'll give you time . phyllis : [ sighs ] billy : i 'll leave you to it . jack : hey , i could hear your voice halfway down the hall . what -- what are you so worked up about ? billy : i 'm not worked up . my voice carries . i came here to see ashley , and i ... ran into phyllis . i did not expect to see her here after everything she 's been through . jack : well , you know phyllis . phyllis : and there is work to be done , so i am not gon na let the thought of a gun - waving lunatic keep me from it . jack : i rest my case . so , what 'd you stop by to see ashley about ? billy : i 'm not here to steal trade secrets if that 's what you 're worried about , jack . jack : i had n't even considered that till you mentioned it . i 'll tell ashley you dropped by . billy : thank you . phyllis . i meant it . take your time . do n't rush into anything until you 're good and ready . phyllis : i never do . jack : he seem a little off to you ? phyllis : who can tell ? i do n't know . jack : i can tell when you 're off . and you do seem off . you want to tell me what really happened with you two ? lily : uh - oh . how does dr. neville feel about you mixing medication with some bubbly ? will you pass out and hit your head ? 'cause that 'd be a shame . for the floor . hilary : i appreciate your concern . but i intend to live a very long and healthy life . and i will definitely be getting everything that 's coming to me . lily : oh . [ chuckles ] yeah , fingers crossed on that last part . hilary : can i buy you a drink ? especially since this might be your last one , because soon i will own this place , and the security , they will be under strict instructions to keep you out . lily : aww , look at you , counting your eggs before they hatch . see , this place still belongs to devon , and jack still belongs to phyllis . and all you have is your sparkling personality . so drink up . esther : hey , devon . can i get you anything ? coffee ? maple oat cake ? it 's got flaxseed . it 's very healthy . devon : is a , uh , different life on the menu ? esther : now , if you had a different life , you would n't be mrs. c. 's grandson , and that would be a shame . devon : yeah . she was a - a wonderful woman who knew how to handle any and everything , and i really could use someone like that right now . esther : you know , i 'm not mrs. c. , but if you need someone to talk to , i 'm -- i 'm happy to listen . devon : i appreciate that , but i think i 'd be too ashamed to ask katherine even if she were here . esther : ashamed ? why ? devon : why ? because , um , she left me a fortune , and i 've done nothing with it . you know , i - i have n't made the world a better place . just drove some people crazy with greed . that 's about it . esther : that 's not true . look at all the work you 've done with that odd doctor , and -- and the foundation with your father and jack . devon : all i do is write checks . you know , and sometimes that 's just not enough for people . esther : you know , i think mrs. c. would say that you 're learning something very important . devon : and what would that be ? esther : you know , money can bring out the worst in some people . but it can also bring out the best in others , too . and it 's up to you on how you use it , who you use it for , and the people you surround yourself with . at least , i think that 's what she would say . [ chuckles ] devon : yeah . esther : what 's that for ? devon : uh , it 's -- it 's for you being you . esther : ah . ashley : i mean , honestly , abby , you and ben have survived the worst that life can throw at a couple . and what max is suffering does n't have to break the two of you . abby : but ben wo n't lean on me . he wo n't let me in . ashley : you need to keep offering . or maybe you should start demanding . 'cause you know what , you can be a pretty willful person . maybe it 's time to put that to good use . you have to make sure that ben knows you 're not giving up , and you 're not backing down . [ cell phone rings ] ashley : answer it . he needs you . abby : i just got butterflies from my husband calling me . ben ? hi . nick : look , everyone with access to certain newman computers and the facility is a suspect . so if you have questions about luca , it 's understandable . summer : yeah , but you still think that grandpa 's the one behind it all . nick : summer , he admitted to trying to teach the whole family a lesson . summer : okay , but he did n't admit to being behind the oil spills . nick : okay , well , let 's look at the facts , all right ? dad 's very hurt , and he feels betrayed by everyone in this family except you . there is a strong likelihood that he has someone here in the company following his orders . someone who 's expecting a big payoff if and when dad comes back . summer : someone like luca . god , i just ca n't help but think about how you told me to trust my gut . nick : and i meant that . look , summer , do you think something is not right with luca ? abby : oh , they did ? they did . um ... thank you for letting me know . hey , now that i have you on the phone , do you think you have some time to maybe , uh -- okay . yeah . sure . yeah . i love yo -- love you . ashley : what did he say ? abby : um , the department of corrections called . they approved my visit to dad at the hospital . so , um , i 'm gon na go to the hospital . ashley : wait a second . ben misses you . abby : really ? i mean , her certainly did n't say that . he did n't even want to talk to me . ashley : well , maybe he does n't have all the right words right now , but ... he clearly wanted to hear your voice . abby : you really think so ? ashley : absolutely . abby : bye . ashley : bye , honey . summer : i 'm not saying that anything 's wrong ... [ sighs ] nick : hey , there 's no judgment here . all right ? i promise . what do you got ? summer : okay , it 's just ... when ian kidnapped mom and grandma , and grandpa went to ... save them , luca got in the way of me finding out . not on purpose , but i 'm just saying that i did n't find out until i had missed all those messages . nick : so , your family 's in danger . you did n't know . and luca had an explanation for that . summer : but , i mean , he knew that i had left adam 's trial to avoid all the family in - fighting . and , you know , he was just trying to protect me . nick : why ? why , because you 're a snowflake ? summer , you are tougher than that . you do n't need protection . but since i am your old man , maybe you 'll allow me to do it sometime ? thanks for humoring me . summer : [ chuckles ] uh , yeah , i just -- i want to believe in luca . i just ... you know , things like this make me wonder . nick : look , i can not go on this trip unless i know you 're here keeping your eyes open . take care of yourself . trust your instincts . and never , ever , ever forget that you are not a snowflake . you 're supergirl . luca : we have a problem . nick newman is on his way there . lily : i 'm not gon na waste perfectly good flowers just because hilary is the worst . devon : well , good . 'cause there 's no funeral as of yet . lily : oh . this is good . someone lit a fire under you . who was it ? devon : it was katherine . lily : katherine chancellor ? devon : yeah . i just thought to myself , `` what would katherine do ? `` and the answer to that question is to fight like hell and not let hilary destroy our family . lily : well , god bless katherine . she always comes through . devon : yeah . billy : [ sighs ] i 'll have what she 's having , please . hilary : oh , you must be celebrating . jack has his wife back safe and sound . billy : that 's right . to happy endings . phyllis : there 's no point in lying . you deserve to know . jack : go on . phyllis : billy crossed the line . he assumed that our marriage is doomed . jack : honey , he 's just projecting his frustration over victoria . this really was n't about us . phyllis : yeah , well , i told him to keep his mouth shut . and i made that clear to him just now . this is our marriage . no one gets to speculate . no one gets to pass judgment . that 's why you heard the raised voices . that 's why he could n't get out of here soon enough . jack : do n't be too hard on my brother . he 's not the only one who wants what we have . phyllis : what are you talking about ? is there something you want to tell me ? jack : just this . maybe jealousy is n't such a bad thing if it gives billy something to shoot for . not everybody 's as lucky as we are . [ next_on ] chelsea : i 'm sorry to bother you , but i 'm really freaking out here . kevin : let me guess . victor ? adam : i 'm running out of time , here , all right ? and i need to prove this theory . dylan : and you think confronting victor 's the only way to do that . nikki : i do n't want to walk .Summarize.[/INST]nick thought victor had a good chance of being granted an appeal after he saved nikki and phyllis . nick was concerned about what victor would do to the family if he were freed . nick told luca and summer that he was going to the oil refinery to investigate the oil spill . luca unsuccessfully tried to convince nick to let him go instead . after luca left , summer told nick she felt uneasy about the way luca kept her from checking her phone during her grandparents ' ordeal with ian . summer did n't think luca kept her in the dark on purpose , and she said he was trying to protect her . nick told summer that she was strong and did n't need luca 's protection . summer wanted to trust luca , but she was n't sure if she should . luca privately called someone and warned them that nick was going to the refinery . abby returned to town and told ashley that max survived surgery , but he now suffered from seizures , memory loss and loss of motor skills . abby got the feeling that ben blamed her max 's state . ashley did n't believe that . she told abby not to let ben push her away . abby had tried to visit victor , but she was n't on the approved visitor list . ben called to let her know the department of corrections was allowing the hospital to let abby visit . abby tried to talk to ben about their personal life , but he abruptly hung up after he delivered he message .</s> | 17,522 |

'cause you had a second chance with connie . sonny : yeah . olivia : yeah . you lost her the first time , partly at least , because you were in the mob . so , second time around , you tell her you retired . easy lie to sell because she wanted to believe it . but how long did you seriously think you were going to be able to keep that thing going , huh ? now , i know you were surprised to see her get shot on your wedding day , but you had to know that was going to happen sooner or later . you did n't retire , sonny . you 're as in the mob as you ever were . sonny : who told you that ? olivia : nobody needed to tell me . i got all the proof i need lying right there in that bed . so you 're as mobbed up as you ever were . the only thing we got to decide is who 's going to tell your bride . is it going to be me , or is it going to be you ?

[ scene_break ] spinelli : the jackal is aware that stone cold considers mr. sir a mentor , and maybe even a father figure . but one can not avoid the potential for a deadly oedipal conflict , the shedding of blood , the dark power of -- jason : you running a fever again ? spinelli : no , i am quite well . spleen - less , but well . jason : okay , can you stop babbling about the greek stuff ? spinelli : it is relevant to the situation and indeed , a strong example of how a similar tragedy could be avoided . see , if oedipus had just guided his wagon around that of his father on the road to thebes , blind tiresias ' prophecy would have never been fulfilled . oedipus would have never killed his father , however unknowing . stone cold has a similar opportunity to avoid a potential conflict , and by doing so , save himself . jason : so are you saying do n't challenge sonny ? spinelli : continuing to refuse to go after comrade karpov could lead to mr. sir turning his wrath on you . and knowing you , you might not defend yourself . so just maybe if you bend to mr. sir 's will , he 'd be placated . jason : so are you saying i should do what 's easiest for me ? spinelli : easy is a relative term . jason : okay , if i give in to sonny , i 'm taking the coward 's way out .

[ knock on door ] mac : how 's she doing ? sonny : she 's going to live . mac : glad to hear it . look , i know this is a bad time , but i need to finish up on the statements of the shooting from both of you . olivia : i already told you everything i know . mac : sonny has n't .

[ scene_break ] sonny : i did n't see anything . mac : no , you never do . sonny : kate was walking down the aisle . the wedding started . there was a shot , and she fell in my arms , mac . mac : how about you ? do you remember anything since we last spoke ? olivia : no . mac : so have you made any new enemies in the coffee business ? sonny : no . mac : have you received any threats ? sonny : no . mac : any deals fall apart ? any serious disagreements ? sonny : no . mac : you 're lying , sonny . which should n't surprise me . [ mac chuckles ] sonny : i can not help you , mac . what do you want me to say ? mac : you know , it seems naive , but i honestly thought that after what happened to michael , you would 've been out of the business . or at least you would 've wanted to be . sonny : do you have anymore questions ? mac : why bother , huh ? you 're stonewalling , which tells me you know exactly who did this and you 're planning to retaliate on your own . olivia : look , could you please focus a little bit less on all the ways that sonny 's wrong , and a little bit more on finding the person who is responsible for my cousin getting shot ? mac : that would be sonny . no ? what -- what , you honestly thought you could have both , huh ? a life in the mob and a high - profile wife ? kate had no idea what she was walking into . which means sonny corinthos is doing business as usual . olivia : seems like he knows you pretty well . sonny : i got some place i got ta be . can you -- can you stay with her ? olivia : i would n't be anywhere else . sonny : can you do me a favor ? if kate wakes up , just tell her i love her .

[ scene_break ] spinelli : the jackal fails to see how dispatching comrade karpov could be seen as an act of cowardice . jason : because i would n't be doing it because it 's right or it 's smart . i would be doing it because i want to keep sonny as my friend , and i want to please him , spinelli . we do n't even have all the facts . if i go to war , i 'm going to be hurting everyone . people who work for me , people who are close to me . so i guess it comes down to this -- either i betray them , or i betray him . spinelli : perhaps in the event of comrade karpov 's demise , his associates would be too intimidated to retaliate . a conflict with mr. sir would be avoided . the attack on the fashionista would be avenged . peace , or something close , would reign .

[ laughs ] okay . nick : you have nothing to feel guilty about , all right ? you live how you want and where you want . that 's what i 'm gon na do . jordan : what 's up , chels ? chelsea : hey , jordan . how did the newman shoot go ? jordan : oh , it turned out great . you have to come up on the roof with me and celebrate . chelsea : i would lo -- jordan : have a drink . chelsea : i would do that . i would love to . but i 'm actually picking up some take - out because i 'm celebrating something of my own at home . jordan : yeah ? chelsea : nick and his son are moving in with me . and his daughter is going to split time with us once she gets back from camp . jordan : if you 're happy , then i 'm happy . chelsea : okay . not exactly the enthusiastic response i was hoping for . jordan : last time we talked , you gave me this whole `` ms . independence `` spiel . how you love the fact that you and nick have your own lives , and you 're not joined together at the hip . now it 's two adults , three kids , one house . you sure that 's what you want ? tessa : i know things can look different when they 're real . maybe it 's just awkward having me so close ? after ... mariah : no . no , it 's ... it -- it 's not . it 's -- it 's ... that 's ridiculous . there 's no weirdness . none . i promise . i 'm just glad that we 're friends . tessa : me too . i mean , you 're the first true , close friend i 've ever had . mariah : well ... i 've got your back . tessa : good . [ voice breaking ] 'cause i ca n't lose anyone else right now . mariah : tessa , what is going on ? it 's not like you to be this emotional . tessa : just forget it . it 's nothing . mariah : no , i 'm sorry . i - i do n't buy that . something is off . i 've never seen you this obsessive about your phone before . and at the studio , you just were n't yourself . maybe one of the most important days of your life , and you just could n't focus . so something is wrong . tessa , you got to open up to me . if we are really , truly best friends , you need to talk to me . please let me help you . christine : so , the gcpd was able to track down the john that was with crystal before you got there . to book their date , he contacted an agency that advertised full - body massage in the back of the gc weekly . the police found that in his car when they busted him . sharon : they advertise out in the open like this ? christine : totally small - time . yeah . one pimp , probably . possibly even the guy that hauled her away . so i do n't think this is some extensive , multi - state sex - trafficking ring . i mean , that would be too sophisticated and organized . with this , i think it 's probably just crystal and one or two other girls . sharon : so what are you saying ? three girls is n't enough to get the da 's office 's attention on this ? one girl is n't enough ? someone 's daughter is n't enough ? christine : sharon , the police are on this . paul has his officers looking for crystal . until they find her , there 's nothing i can do . sharon : meantime , she 's out there on the street . anything could happen to her . to any of the girls . christine : i hate this , too . it 's horrible that vulnerable young men and women are dragged into this . organized sex rings are the biggest offenders . our job is to put them out of business . so i genuinely hope and pray that crystal reaches out to you , because i 'm telling you , that is the best chance we have of saving her . mattie : i thought you 'd be more understanding . this is n't fair , mom . reed understands what i 'm going through . he 's helping me deal . and it 's not easy . lily : honey , i know that . mattie : then do n't ask me not to see him . lily : listen , i understand . when i was your age , i thought if i could just be with this one person , life would be so much better . and things can get very intense very fast . mattie : we were just kissing . lily : no , i 'm not talking about sex . i 'm just saying that you 're in a fragile period in your life right now . and it 's easy to get carried away . you know , and things are very tense between your dad and victoria right now . and if you and reed get too close , victoria could oppose the relationship , too . i know from when i was a teenager how quickly these things can escalate . mattie : so you want me to stop seeing reed because of something that might not even happen ? lily : [ exhales deeply ] mattie , i know reed is special to you . but i think it 's best to not make things more complicated . mattie : the one person that makes me feel good . and now that 's gone , too . one more thing dad 's taken from me . i 'm being punished for his mistakes . lily : mattie , i 'm sorry . reed : if mattie 's dad tells me to back off , i should just walk away ? where 's the whole `` fight for the girl `` speech ? billy : listen . what her parents say goes , okay ? you do n't want to make it worse on mattie . reed : yeah , but mom said the same thing . billy : and your mother is right . reed : [ sighs ] billy : she knows what she 's talking about . she dealt with me and your grandpa for a long time , being stuck in the middle , okay ? and it was n't pretty . and she 's an adult . mattie is a young woman . she 's got a lot going on . you do n't want to cause more drama . and believe me . the whole parent thing ? it 'll blow over . reed : what if it does n't ? billy : it does . it will . it always does . reed : kinda like it did with you and grandpa ? yeah . that 's ... billy : [ exhales sharply ] reed : that 's what i thought . cane : scotch , please . neat .

[ cellphone rings ] benjamin : [ chuckles softly ] hello , victoria . victoria : hey , benjamin . uh , i know it 's short notice , but um , are you free tonight ? benjamin : i 'm just having a drink here at the athletic club . why do n't you join me for dinner ? victoria : i 'm on my way . but just to be clear . this is business . it 's not a date . benjamin : i 'm looking forward to seeing you soon ... whatever we may discuss . cane : you know , it sounds to me like , uh , one of these opportunities you 're pursuing is brash & sassy , and you know what ? i might just be able to help you with that . abby : it does feel good to be closer to dad , but ... well , now he 's pushing you out of his life . nick : look , it 's not your problem . you do n't have to worry about it . abby : of course i worry about it . you 're my brother . and victoria is furious . no , i 'm just sick of being stuck in the middle of all of this . and i feel like i 'm always there . nick : yeah , vic and i are having our own issues with dad . but you seem to be in a really great place with him right now . i wish i could tell you that was gon na last forever , but ... abby : no , i know . i do n't count on anything with dad . i know better . nick : then just do it , abby . move out to the ranch . but do it with your eyes open . enjoy everything the place has to offer . if things are cool , then stay . if they get tense , then you can always leave . abby : and you 're really , honestly not bothered by this ? nick : no . i 'm good . chelsea : i mean , it was a surprise . that 's for sure . any time anybody decides to move in together , it 's a big deal . especially when children are involved . but the more nick and i talked about it , it just -- it just seemed to make sense . jordan : you two have something good . no question there . but 24/7 . that can be hard on any couple . you sure it wo n't cramp your style ? chelsea : no . uh , nick and i , we 're both very busy with our jobs . we both actually have very different schedules , so it 'll make it easier to decide whose place to stay at , you know ? besides , it always helps having someone to share the load . jordan : mm . you sure you 're not trying to talk yourself into this ? chelsea : i mean , to be honest with you , in a perfect world , maybe we would 've made this decision together , but nick asked me . and -- and i could n't say no . it would make me feel like i was rejecting him . jordan : well , if you 're not ready for this , nick would understand . chelsea : i love him , jordan . sure , i was a little caught off guard , but ... i think this is gon na be really good for us . i know it . jordan : all right . tessa : i do n't do this . i never do this . mariah : do what ? tessa : talk about what i 'm about to talk about . now , this has to stay between us , mariah . i mean it . mariah : of course . i swear . tessa , you have my word . but you 're scaring me a little bit . tessa : crystal ? that girl your mom 's trying to help ? she 's not just some girl . she 's my little sister . mariah : your sister ? sharon : this is insane . crystal has no one who cares for her , who 's looking out for her , protecting her . if we say that she does n't matter , then who does ? scott : she does matter , sharon . sharon : well , tell that to christine . scott : she knows . and there 's nothing chris or the police can do for her right now . but there is something i can do . benjamin : here 's my card . cane : i appreciate that . benjamin : yeah . ah , and there 's my dinner companion . cane : well , you better not keep that lady waiting . benjamin : ah , victoria . as lovely as always . victoria : oh , thank you . and thank you for meeting me at last minute like this . it 's very nice of you . benjamin : it 's my pleasure .

[ exhales sharply ] this is not a thing that we want , but we have to put the dare campaign on hold as of right now . lily : why ? billy : it 's strictly budgetary issues , okay ? we have to use the money where it 's needed most . lily : so brash & sassy is broke because of cane ? billy : funds are limited right now , yeah . but victoria 's handling it . lily : well , i mean , how fast can she do that ? because i 'm supporting my family now . i need a paying job . billy : i know . we realize that . and we will get this campaign up and running as soon as we possibly can . but in the meantime , i suggest that you tell your agent that you 're available to work on other stuff . lily : [ scoffs ] yeah . well , it 's not that easy . i mean , there 's a lot of people going out of the same roles . billy : yeah , but nobody 's as good as you . i 'm confident that you 're gon na find some work . lily : yeah . you 're right . um ... yeah . things will be okay . i should get going , so ... billy : okay . look , i 'm sorry , all right ? lily : [ laughs softly ] thanks . billy : i 'll see you soon .

[ glasses clink ] theo : i thought i was being smart . i 'd win jack over and kyle would be forced to come up with something new on the fly . but it turns out i was an idiot . i wish you had known me back in new york . i was the guy with the midas touch , threw the hottest parties , knew the most beautiful people , had the most revolutionary ideas . you would 've liked me , i think . and then when jack issued this challenge , i told myself that i was enough like you that i could win . but then , instead of rising to the occasion , i panicked , reverted to my worst instinct . i screwed myself out of a job and , worst of all ... maybe a family . [ door closes ] sharon : [ sighs ] rey : what do you think ? sharon : well , that party was a lot more fun than i expected . you know , it took my mind off of tomorrow for a little while . rey : yeah ? sharon : now ... rey : you just wish you were on the other side of that surgery ? sharon : yeah . a few days from now , after they check my lymph nodes and they come out cancer - free and i go back to living my life . rey : you 're getting ahead of yourself again . sharon : yeah , i know . just a few more miserable days . rey : we 're gon na get there . we 've gone this far . just a few more steps . sharon : promise ? rey : i promise . amanda : what shall we drink to ? nate : here 's to me . amanda : to you ? nate : so you agree . amanda : [ laughs ] i thought that we would drink to my new job . nate : [ sighs ] okay . to your legal skills and impeccable taste in doctors . amanda : [ laughs ] [ glasses clink ] lily : a toast . billy : we 're celebrating ? lily : yes , we are celebrating . to hiring the best lawyer in town . may she keep our competitors at bay and keep us in compliance with business regulations , right ? billy : hear , hear . lily : hear , hear .Summarize.[/INST]theo fell into summer and kyle 's trap and presented his stolen pitch to jack . jack was already familiar with the pitch , because it was one jack had written almost fifteen years ago . jack gave theo a chance to defend himself , and theo blamed kyle and summer for setting him up . kyle argued that no one forced theo to break into summer 's server and steal the pitch he found . jack left theo 's fate in kyle 's hands , and kyle fired theo . kyle presented his pitch , and jack loved it . kyle revealed that he could n't have done it without summer . theo visited dina . he confided that he 'd panicked and cheated and lost his job . he feared that he 'd lose his family too . nate and amanda went on a date . she said that when she met nate , she was entrenched in the situation with ripley , until she met someone who taught her to seize her freedom and shout it from the rooftops . she planned to seize life . billy told lily that victoria had come to him with a story that would take down victor , adam or both . lily knew that publishing it would put billy on victoria 's good side . billy was enamored with the prospect of becoming a hero and taking down a rival at the same time . lily made it clear that billy was not to publish anything without discussing it with her first . lily was delighted to see amanda and nate on a date , but billy did n't look thrilled . lily had billy talk to amanda alone so he could convince her to take the job at chancellor . amanda and billy decided they 'd be able to work together without any complications from their past getting in the way . sharon got back from her pre - surgical appointment and was dismayed by how somber her loved ones were . rey , nick , mariah , faith and tessa shifted gears and threw a little party for sharon to lighten the mood . sharon asked mariah to be her health care proxy , and after some hesitance , she agreed . sharon privately asked nick to take care of noah and faith if something went wrong in the surgery tomorrow . nick promised that faith would have an amazing life and that sharon would be there for every moment . after the party , rey and sharon spent some time alone , and she imagined what things would be like once she had the surgery and was declared cancer - free .</s> | 1,615 |

it 's tearing me apart . what do i do ? do i just pretend like the last half a year did n't happen ? we pick up where we left off ? share a bed , raise our son together ? abigail : i think that we can get there . chad : i 'm glad you do . i 'm not sure i can . claire : great . okay , see you soon , theo . bye . so theo is thrilled that we 're all gon na be roomies next semester . ciara : claire , i , um ... claire : what ?

jade : yes . joey : so spend the rest of the evening with us . come to st. luke 's with us , please ? it 's really important that we 're all together . jade : i know it 's important to you . just like i know how even talking about hope upsets you . brings up all sorts of emotions . joey : it 's like ... this baby ... is a new chance . a fresh start . jade : it is . for both of us . jj : i hated keeping the truth about abigail from you . it 's just i did n't know what else to do . gabi : your sister put is in a terrible situation . jj : and i 'd do anything to keep her safe . gabi : i understand that , but you could have trusted me . jj : i know , abigail swore -- gabi : it 's not about her . it 's about us . and how you promised me the last time that i could trust you . jj : i 'm sorry . gabi : i 'm not . jj : what ? gabi : no , what you did , keeping abigail secret , yeah , it created a lot of complications , but actually , it opened my eyes . i 'm sorry , jj , but i just -- i do n't think we 're meant to be together . jj : how can you say that ? we 're great together . gabi : what we are is a lot of work . jj : i 'm willing to put in as much work as it takes . gabi : i 'm not . i 'm not anymore . look , i thought i could get past this whole miami thing , that i could just see it as just one big mistake that happened one time . jj : it was , it was . gabi : but i ca n't stop thinking about it , jj . i ca n't get it out of my head . and i realized this now . it 's probably why i jumped to conclusions when i found out you had a secret . i do n't completely trust you . jj : did you realize this before or after you kissed my sister 's husband ? chad : you know , if you would have told me a year ago , that i could have had you back , i would have done anything . anything . abigail : i 'm here now , chad . chad : and then there 's a huge part of me that wants to just take you in my arms , carry you upstairs to our bedroom , and never let you out of my sight again . abigail : i know that it 's not that easy . chad : do you ? do you really think you understand what it was like to live without you ? abigail : i 'm so sorry . chad : i know you are . and i know you suffered , but it did n't have to be this way . abigail : i really -- i thought that it did . chad : i would 've helped you . abigail : but i did n't wan na be a burden to you . chad : a burden ? do you know what a burden is , abby ? mourning the love of your wife . holding your crying son knowing that he 's gon na grow up without a mother . that 's a burden . abigail : i thought that -- chad : no , we vowed to love each other in sickness and in health . that was my responsibility . not a burden , and i would have done it for you gladly . i would 've stood by you . no matter what . abigail : and what about now ? will you stand by me now ? gabi : you 're going to come down on me for kissing chad after what you did ? jj : i did n't mean it like that . gabi : of course you did . no , it 's all about forgiveness until i do something . jj : no , i do n't care about the kiss . i care about chad pulling you away from me . gabi : chad and i are friends . jj : you know it 's a lot more than that . gabi : i ca n't believe you 're worried about chad and me when abigail 's back . jj : so you 're gon na step aside and let chad and abigail get back together ? you have feelings for him , i know you do . gabi : even if i do , you want to know why we got close in the first place ? because he 's open and honest . and he does n't keep secrets , jj . jj : i wo n't lie to you again . gabi , we can work this out . now that abigail is back , everything can go back to the way it was . gabi : no , it 's never gon na be the way it was . jj , we 're ... we 're just not in sync anymore . and i do n't think we 're ever gon na be . chad : you , now , you 're my son 's mother . abigail : and your wife . chad : who was declared legally dead . abigail : does that mean i 'm not your wife anymore ? chad : i do n't know . [ stammers ] abigail : look , it 's really hard to get past , i get it . okay , look , jj , he reminded me of something . he reminded me that i did the exact same thing that my father did . we lived through thinking he was dead . and it was awful . my god , it was horrible . and that 's why i can look at you and say i 'm so sorry . but he came back . and so did i . chad : and i 'm grateful that you 're alive . abigail : chad , do you not -- we are supposed to be together . i mean , do you not see that ? can you -- can you not tell ? i mean , i was getting ready to walk out of that room and i was never coming back but somehow , something caused you to walk in there the exact moment that i was there . and you can call it fate or destiny or god , whatever , i do n't care . it does n't matter . but what matters is you found me . so do you see what i 'm saying ? we ... we are supposed to be together . and it does n't mean that it 's gon na be easy . but we 've got ta figure out a way to make it work , and i ... i was really scared . and i did n't believe in our love . whatever this ... thing is that we have , but i was wrong , okay ? i 'm not going anywhere . and i need you to trust me . please , i 'm not going anywhere . i love you . chad : i love you . i love you . i 'd do anything for you and thomas . but can i get through this ? i do n't know . i do n't know when i 'm going to stop being mad at you , abby . i do n't know ... i do n't know if i can trust that you 're not gon na run away every time something gets tough again . abigail : so what does that mean for us ? chad : all i know ... i do n't wan na let you walk out that door . joey : looks like we 're bonding in a new and weird way , are n't we ? jade : yeah , we 've been through some pretty unique bonding experiences in the past . this baby brings it to an entirely different level . i 'm glad you 're being so cool about it now . joey : you know , i meant what i said . about a fresh start . i ... i could live with myself after what i did to ava . but there 's something ... something so balanced about a new life . not that anything makes what i did to ava okay , but it 's just ... where there 's life there 's hope , right ? jade : absolutely . joey : but if we 're going to make this work , you 're gon na have to learn to live with my family . they 're part of the deal , like it or not . jade : gotcha . joey : i do n't know how this is all gon na fall into place but it will . the bradys believe in miracles . especially this time of year . so let 's go to church , and hope that something good will happen . for us . for all of us . okay ?

[ thomas cries through monitor ] abigail : i 'll go check on him . chad : no , i got it . gabi : i do n't -- i do n't understand . how did you survive that plane crash ? abigail : i was n't on the plane . gabi : yeah , but they -- abigail : i know . i know , but i just ... i wanted everyone to believe i was dead . i did . after everything that happened with ben , i just ... i was out of my mind . i was completely traumatized . i got really scared that i was gon na be in a facility for the rest of my life . i just -- i did n't want thomas to deal with that . i did n't want chad to have to deal with that . gabi : you must have been so scared . abigail , why did n't you come to me for help ? abigail : i did n't want you to have to deal with that either . gabi : you were protecting me ? you were my best friend , gabi . gabi : abigail . when we lost you , chad was barely holding on . and the only thing that kept him going was knowing that thomas needed him . he loved you so much . and when ... when he lost you , he was -- it shattered him . you know ? abigail : thank goodness you were around to help him pick up the pieces . coming up on `` look ! famous people ! `` kayla : [ laughing ] jade : oh , i 'm sorry . kayla : oh ! no , it 's fine . it 's fine . listen , jade , i just -- i just wan na thank you for helping out today . i hope it did n't tire you out . steve : you wan na sit down ? jade : no , i 'm not tired . i 'm just upset . kayla : what happened ? jade : nothing that has n't happened before . it 's just getting to me more than usual today . steve : wan na talk about it ? jade : it 's just some stuff the girls said . you know , joey 's bodyguards . they do n't approve of me . big surprise . they actually hate me . kayla : claire and ciara ? jade : they think i 'm using this baby to trap joey . steve : hey . you know , they 've said that before . they 're probably gon na say it again . jade : but it 's not true ! joey and i were in love , and this ... happened . it was an accident . kayla : of course . but you need to understand , jade , that claire and ciara are family , and you 've seen a little bit about how the bradys work . the upside , but the downside is that everybody 's all involved in everybody 's life . and that 's probably not necessarily a good thing , but it really is out of love and being incredibly loyal . steve : you know , jade , it was weird for me at first because i did n't come from much family . but having the bradys on your side , you 'll find out , there 's nothing like it . ciara : look , jade , it 's so done , okay ? jade : what 's so done ? ciara : you and joey are gon na have a kid together , and it 's not for us to judge how it happened . the main thing is that we 're gon na be there for you and for the baby . claire : well , i mean , the baby , for sure . joey : claire ! jade : no , it 's okay . i get it . family first . and this baby is gon na be your family . while it 's cool to be part of the bradys , i 'm not part of that , so why would you be there for me ? ciara : jade , come on- jade : stand down , ciara . and claire , i guess i 'm just gon na have to all this family attention , the good and the bad . kayla explained to me that family is everything to you guys . ciara : that 's right . and speaking of family and christmas , i would like to go to mass today and say a prayer for my mom . i went to see her this morning with shawn , and i 'm really worried about her . sheila : it 's survival of the fittest in here , bitch . hope : do n't touch me . sheila : and we 've decided that you do n't get to survive . chille : hey ! coco : chille ! chille : what 'd i say about hands on hope ? coco : [ stammering ] chille : i do n't wan na listen to your lame - ass excuse . just go ! get the hell out of here . hope : thank you . chille : thank your friend . i was in the middle of the christmas pageant and she interrupted me . i 've taken people down for less than that . hope : you did the right thing . chille : we will talk later . but right now , i got ta get back to the show . i do n't want to miss my solo . all right ? jingle bells jingle all the way hope : thank you . annabelle : [ cries ] hope : hey , hey , hey , hey . abigail : every time i look at you , all i see is you kissing my husband . gabi : abigail . abigail : i know i have no right to be upset . i do n't , but i just ... gabi : just say it . abigail : i saw you kissing chad right here . right here in the house that i used to live in . i mean ... how long has it been going on ? how long did you guys wait ? gabi : you 're the one who told jj . abigail : no , that has nothing to do with this . gabi : what chad and i -- abigail : what do you have ? do you love him ? gabi : abigail , you were dead . i mean , wow long was chad supposed to wait ? if we had any idea you were alive , this would 've never happened . abigail : are you sure about that ? chad : that 's enough , abigail . i would have never looked at another woman if you would n't have made us all think that you were dead . this is not gabi 's fault . if you want somebody to blame , blame yourself . kayla : i know it 's scary to have your mom in a place like that . steve : but is there more to it than that ? is something going on ? ciara : i think so . but she wo n't admit it . she acts like everything 's fine . but if it were n't , would she tell me ? steve : probably not . [ cell phone ringing ] claire : sorry , um .... hi , theo , what 's up ? yeah , no , i 'm still at club tbd . and i have some good news . i actually asked ciara about sharing an apartment next semester off campus and she was totally thrilled . so the three of us are going to be roomies . annabelle : i ca n't do this anymore . hope : yes , you can . you 're a hell of a lot stronger than you think you are , annabelle . annabelle : you heard them . they 're gon na come back for me . hope : and we 're gon na be ready . you got me and hattie and chille , okay ? you 're gon na be fine . coco : we 're never going to be able to get to hope with chille around . sheila : you think you know someone . she was our friend . coco : well , guess we 're just gon na have to make her see our point of view . sheila : mm - hmm . and good thing we know how to be convincing . come on . hope : gon na be okay . gabi : she was n't trying to hurt us . abigail : no , gabi , he 's right . this is my fault . i left . and i put him and you and my whole family through hell . i did . i was so messed up . i 'm sorry . i really ... i told myself i wanted you to move on . gabi : i should go . before i say something wrong . you guys have a lot -- chad : gabi . gabi : it 's okay . this is amazing . we have our abby back . chad : hey ... jj : so now you know . gabi : this was the big secret , the one you were keeping from me . jj : i 'm sorry . abigail : i begged him not to tell anyone . gabi : so how did dario know ? chad : dario knew , too ? andré , your grandmother , jj , anybody else know my wife was n't dead ? jj : can we go somewhere ? to talk ? gabi : yeah . seeing you is the best christmas present . abigail : i spent the night in thomas 's room last night . i was hoping you 'd come in . chad : went for a walk . abigail : thinking ? chad : trying to . abigail : how are you feeling ? chad : angry for what you made me go through . overjoyed that my wife is standing in front of me . after i thought i 'd never see her again . abigail : i 'm sure that that 's got ta be really confusing . chad : confusing ? it 's tearing me apart . what do i do ? do i just pretend like the last half a year did n't happen ? we pick up where we left off ? share a bed , raise our son together ? abigail : i think that we can get there . chad : i 'm glad you do . i 'm not sure i can . claire : great . okay , see you soon , theo . bye . so theo is thrilled that we 're all gon na be roomies next semester . ciara : claire , i , um ... claire : what ? is there a problem ? ciara : no . i just ... i did n't know that theo was part of this equation . claire : oh , sorry , i guess i just forgot to mention it . that 's cool with you , though , right ? ciara : yeah . yeah , sure . claire : awesome . kayla : let 's all go to st. luke 's and say a prayer for your mom . ciara : yes , great idea . jade : that 's terrific . i 'll meet you back at home . claire : okay , bye , jade . joey : claire , chill . jade , do n't go , just ... come with us . jade : i do n't think that 's a good idea . rafe : hey , guys . joey : hey , rafe . kayla : hey , rafe . rafe : hey , well , okay . merry christmas to y ' all . steve : merry christmas . kayla : you too . rafe : i got a present for my brother , he around ? steve : i have n't see him . we just got finished serving christmas dinner to the homeless . rafe : oh , good . steve : nice of your dad to let us do it . rafe : well , he is nice on occasion . ciara : we 're gon na go pray for mom if you want to come . rafe : yeah , there 's nothing more i 'd rather do . got ta tell you , i 'm about ready to break her out of that damn place . steve : we all feel that way . but we ca n't do that . we have to be smart about this . rafe : yeah , i know . no matter how hard this is on her , and on all of us , your mom is strong and she 's smart and she 's brave and she can handle this . i know she can . joey : hey , wait . do n't listen to claire . come on . you 've had a good day with my family for the most part , right ? jade : yes . joey : so spend the rest of the evening with us . come to st. luke 's with us , please ? it 's really important that we 're all together . jade : i know it 's important to you . just like i know how even talking about hope upsets you . brings up all sorts of emotions . joey : it 's like ... this baby ... is a new chance . a fresh start . jade : it is . for both of us . jj : i hated keeping the truth about abigail from you . it 's just i did n't know what else to do . gabi : your sister put is in a terrible situation . jj : and i 'd do anything to keep her safe . gabi : i understand that , but you could have trusted me . jj : i know , abigail swore -- gabi : it 's not about her . it 's about us . and how you promised me the last time that i could trust you . jj : i 'm sorry . gabi : i 'm not . jj : what ? gabi : no , what you did , keeping abigail secret , yeah , it created a lot of complications , but actually , it opened my eyes . i 'm sorry , jj , but i just -- i do n't think we 're meant to be together . jj : how can you say that ? we 're great together . gabi : what we are is a lot of work . jj : i 'm willing to put in as much work as it takes . gabi : i 'm not . i 'm not anymore . look , i thought i could get past this whole miami thing , that i could just see it as just one big mistake that happened one time . jj : it was , it was . gabi : but i ca n't stop thinking about it , jj . i ca n't get it out of my head . and i realized this now . it 's probably why i jumped to conclusions when i found out you had a secret . i do n't completely trust you . jj : did you realize this before or after you kissed my sister 's husband ? chad : you know , if you would have told me a year ago , that i could have had you back , i would have done anything . anything . abigail : i 'm here now , chad . chad : and then there 's a huge part of me that wants to just take you in my arms , carry you upstairs to our bedroom , and never let you out of my sight again . abigail : i know that it 's not that easy . chad : do you ? do you really think you understand what it was like to live without you ? abigail : i 'm so sorry . chad : i know you are . and i know you suffered , but it did n't have to be this way . abigail : i really -- i thought that it did . chad : i would 've helped you . abigail : but i did n't wan na be a burden to you . chad : a burden ? do you know what a burden is , abby ? mourning the love of your wife . holding your crying son knowing that he 's gon na grow up without a mother . that 's a burden . abigail : i thought that -- chad : no , we vowed to love each other in sickness and in health . that was my responsibility . not a burden , and i would have done it for you gladly . i would 've stood by you . no matter what . abigail : and what about now ? will you stand by me now ? gabi : you 're going to come down on me for kissing chad after what you did ? jj : i did n't mean it like that . gabi : of course you did . no , it 's all about forgiveness until i do something . jj : no , i do n't care about the kiss . i care about chad pulling you away from me . gabi : chad and i are friends . jj : you know it 's a lot more than that . gabi : i ca n't believe you 're worried about chad and me when abigail 's back . jj : so you 're gon na step aside and let chad and abigail get back together ? you have feelings for him , i know you do . gabi : even if i do , you want to know why we got close in the first place ? because he 's open and honest . and he does n't keep secrets , jj . jj : i wo n't lie to you again . gabi , we can work this out . now that abigail is back , everything can go back to the way it was . gabi : no , it 's never gon na be the way it was . jj , we 're ... we 're just not in sync anymore . and i do n't think we 're ever gon na be . chad : you , now , you 're my son 's mother . abigail : and your wife . chad : who was declared legally dead . abigail : does that mean i 'm not your wife anymore ? chad : i do n't know . [ stammers ] abigail : look , it 's really hard to get past , i get it . okay , look , jj , he reminded me of something . he reminded me that i did the exact same thing that my father did . we lived through thinking he was dead . and it was awful . my god , it was horrible . and that 's why i can look at you and say i 'm so sorry . but he came back . and so did i . chad : and i 'm grateful that you 're alive . abigail : chad , do you not -- we are supposed to be together . i mean , do you not see that ? can you -- can you not tell ? i mean , i was getting ready to walk out of that room and i was never coming back but somehow , something caused you to walk in there the exact moment that i was there . and you can call it fate or destiny or god , whatever , i do n't care . it does n't matter . but what matters is you found me . so do you see what i 'm saying ? we ... we are supposed to be together . and it does n't mean that it 's gon na be easy . but we 've got ta figure out a way to make it work , and i ... i was really scared . and i did n't believe in our love . whatever this ... thing is that we have , but i was wrong , okay ? i 'm not going anywhere . and i need you to trust me . please , i 'm not going anywhere . i love you . chad : i love you . i love you . i 'd do anything for you and thomas . but can i get through this ?

chad : all i know ... i do n't wan na let you walk out that door . joey : looks like we 're bonding in a new and weird way , are n't we ? jade : yeah , we 've been through some pretty unique bonding experiences in the past . this baby brings it to an entirely different level . i 'm glad you 're being so cool about it now . joey : you know , i meant what i said . about a fresh start . i ... i could live with myself after what i did to ava . but there 's something ... something so balanced about a new life . not that anything makes what i did to ava okay , but it 's just ... where there 's life there 's hope , right ? jade : absolutely . joey : but if we 're going to make this work , you 're gon na have to learn to live with my family . they 're part of the deal , like it or not . jade : gotcha . joey : i do n't know how this is all gon na fall into place but it will . the bradys believe in miracles . especially this time of year . so let 's go to church , and hope that something good will happen . for us . for all of us . okay ?

[ laughs ] neil : oh , yeah ? and how about right now ? christel : any time i had a scene with kristoff , it did n't feel like i was acting with neil winters , it felt like i was just talking to my dad . kristoff : in fact , the name lily is so close to my lola . and is that by chance ? nah . they 're both beautiful girls , and christel , i consider her family , one of my daughters . neil : and so it begins . lily : hey , dad . neil : hey there , lily . devon . kristoff : when bryton first came on the show , i was thrilled because i had watched `` family matters `` like nobody 's business . bryton : being on that show made me comfortable with being on a set and being in this environment , but i did n't know what it meant to get better and grow as an actor until i got here . kristoff : i realized , `` i 'm working with little richie . little richie is going to be my son . bryton : i knew -- when i got here , i knew what kristoff represented , i knew he could do it all effortlessly . neil : i am deeply , deeply sorry for having deceived you . devon : which time ? neil : i meant it . i meant it when i said that i had a change of heart . devon : because your back was up against the wall . are you afraid of what i 'm gon na do now that i know ? because you sure as hell should be . bryton : he just made me feel very safe , like i was his peer , not like i was someone half his age , you know , who was n't quite there yet . he always made me feel like i was there and wanted me to be there with him . devon : [ chuckles ] i can hear . lily : wait , i mean , how is it ? is it clearer than before ? devon : yeah . oh , my god . lily : oh , my god ! oh , my gosh ! devon : [ laughs ] neil : yeah . yeah . devon : [ laughs ] bryton : he made the energy of every day on set about raising us up and about making us feel like he was proud . and he knew that if we could feel that way and have that confidence , it made the entirety of the show , you know , the best it could be . peter : neil winters was a great friend of the abbott family . kristoff st . john was so much more than that , for all of us . i worked with him for 27 years , got to know him pretty well . neil : um , mr . abbott ? here 's the monthly status report & on key customers , sir . jack : thanks . oh , uh , wait . you 're , uh -- you 're neil . neil winters . you did the product focus groups report for me . neil : yes . yes , sir , that 's me . jack : you did a hell of a job . keep up the good work . neil : yes , sir . i certainly will . thank you , mr . abbott . peter : i had to do some of my most difficult scenes -- jack goes off the cabin and is gon na take some pills , and just before he does , he calls his sponsor . kristoff showed up , and just took over . neil : i hear you , brother . i do . but know this -- you 're still jack abbott . does jack know how many lives he 's touched , how many lives he 's saved ? well , let me tell you something , i thank jack abbott because , see , that 's who you really are . and nothing that you learn about yourself can change that . so do n't play yourself , jack , and do n't tell me that everything that you believe in has been destroyed and is gone . because that 's not how it is , and it never will be . peter : it seems to be a recurring theme , how everyone felt that they were the only one in the room when they were with him . mishael : when you look at him , something happens to you as an actor . you forget that you 're acting . you forget about the cameras . and you just see this ... incredibly giving , honest , open person . jess : when he got hired , i thought he was gorgeous , and i thought that he was a keeper here . i thought he 'd do really well here . jill : i am not rattled , believe me . i have n't felt this good in a long , long time . now , if you 'll excuse me ... neil : you have a date tonight , do n't you ? i thought so . so , come on , jill . who 's the new man in your life ? jill : oh , you would n't believe me if i told you . neil : try me . jill : no , forget it . just forget we had the whole conversation . neil : uh - huh . it 's that hot , huh ? jill : [ sighs ] it 's incendiary . neil : ooh . jack : wish me luck . neil : i do n't think she 's gon na need it . jess : he was very , very there and present and so realistic . jill : [ laughs ] look at him ! father of the bride , just sitting here , eating cake . [ laughter ] neil : evidently , i 'm being asked to say something , and i do n't really have much to say . [ laughter ] no , i 'm kidding . really . you said your vows , and now it 's my turn . um , lily ... i love you so much , first of all , okay ? but i want to thank god for your smile because you light up my life , and i 'm sure you light up everyone else 's lives here . i want thank god for your love and joy , as you make me feel ever - so - special . and i want to thank god for you . yeah , you , this guy , right here . for proving that you are gon na keep my daughter safe and you 're gon na keep her loved . cane : yes , i will . neil : and , dru , i know you are extremely proud of the two of them , as i am . cheers . cane : cheers . thank you . jill : well done . neil : and i had nothing to say . jill : i know , that 's what you said . daniel : i remember one of my first scenes with kristoff , where i had to tell him that i loved lily . neil : are you in love with her ? cane : yes , sir , i think i am . daniel : we had this scene . he 's berating me about the age thing , and he just , like , gave me this scene , and i 'm just , like , watching him talk to me , and i was like , `` wow . `` it 's the first time i really understood the depth he had as an actor . neil : let me tell something about my daughter , if you do n't already know . she 's very strong - willed and independent , which i 'm sure you find very attractive . but she 's also young and vulnerable . see , the word `` love , `` it 's a very powerful word , right ? cane : yeah . neil : do n't use it lightly with my daughter because it can be devastating . daniel : and then , all of a sudden , it just made sense . i realized , `` wow , this is an icon . `` i 'm in the presence of greatness . i really was . neil , the way you turned out ... i 'm proud of you , son . i 'm so proud of you . neil : [ sobbing ] [ sighs ] mom ... -keep it down there . i have a system . hilary : [ laughs ] thank you ... for being kind and loving and sexy ... and for making terrible picks at march madness . mishael : it was one of our vow scenes that i had to do . in the middle of a the scene , i could tell it just was n't going the way that we rehearsed it . he knew i could do better . and he dropped a line . and i saw it in his eyes that he dropped that line for me . [ laughter ] because he was like , `` you can do better than this , `` like , `` you got this . `` and i just -- i just felt so seen and so appreciated and just -- he did n't have to do that . rowell : he didn't . mishael : and the fact that he just , you know , threw himself on the sword just for me , and he was just like , `` no , no . we need to do it again . yeah , let 's do that again . `` and he made it look like it was for him , but i saw it in his eyes it was for me . and then we did it again , and it was amazing , and it was the best scene ever . hilary : i love you . and us . i am so lucky and so grateful . neil : i 'm the lucky one . eileen : one of the biggest blessings of being on this show was the last six months when i got to work with him . and it was a surprise . we did n't really know we were gon na be thrown together . ashley : what ? neil : i think this dinner has officially become a celebration . and that , my dear , calls for this celebration . ashley : [ laughs ] okay . what are we celebrating ? neil : being stress - free . ashley : oh ! neil : at least for tonight . ashley : oh ! [ both laugh ] neil : i love that . ashley : what , my dancing , right ? neil : your laugh . ashley : oh . you know what , i have n't really felt much like laughing lately . but i 'm realizing that things are just so ... effortless with you . neil : like this ? eileen : i just really cherish those scenes because working with him was like breathing because he was such a giving soul and a lovely man , and no matter what was going on in his personal life , he always made a point of asking you how you were and what was going on with you , and that you mattered . before we begin the formal ceremony , permit me , if you will , a few personal comments . rowell : kristoff was always trying to get people on the show ... [ laughter ] and he just wanted to share , right ? so his dad was our minister . bryton : that 's his dad ? wow . christel : oh ! rowell : this is his dad , christopher st . john . since neil and drucilla have consented together in the bond of matrimony and have pledged themselves each to the other , in the presence of these witnesses , i now declare that they are husband and wife . those whom god has joined together , let no man put asunder . amen . neil : amen . neil , you may kiss your bride . neil : kiss my bride . [ laughter , applause ] rowell : to work with him was effortless . neil : everything okay ? drucilla : yeah , she said our daughter 's fast asleep . neil : yeah , fast asleep , probably dreaming of boys . drucilla : well , what else , honey ? she 's a teenager . so , listen ... neil : mm . drucilla : did you really enjoy dancing with me tonight ? neil : oh , dru , honey , do you really have to ask me ? i learn new moves every time i 'm out with you . drucilla : i know that 's right . so , how come we do n't do it anymore ? you know , we used to go dancing all the time , remember ? remember , we used to be out there like -- neil : baby , baby . i got an idea . drucilla : what ? what ? neil : why do n't we do some more dancing right now ? i 'll go warm up the stereo , put on your favorite cd . come on . drucilla : oh , wait , wait , wait . you know what , you know what , we have n't had this apartment to ourselves in weeks . neil : mm . drucilla : i was thinking we could be a little more creative . neil : okay . all right . i like where you 're headed with this . what do you have in mind ? drucilla : well , i thought that we would go to bed early tonight , right ? neil : yeah ... drucilla : and i would give you one of my special coconut oil rub - downs . neil : oh , i 'm loving that . drucilla : you know we need to rest after that one . [ laughs ] neil : i 'm loving that . yeah , let 's keep the coconut oil hot ... drucilla : yeah . neil : in the meantime , why do n't we play some fun and games ? drucilla : fun and -- wait . what are you talking about , fun and games ? neil : come on . good things come to those who wait . how about a little two- handed poker ? rowell : i do n't imagine in my lifetime i will ever have a scene partner like him , and certainly not for 14 years . neil : no , you 're not doing this for me , are you ? drucilla : i know that . i was doing it to loosen nathan up for myself . but there 's no reason why the four of us ca n't walk away from this happy campers . neil : okay , fine . right . all right , why do n't you just walk away , out of the office , right now ? come on , let 's go . i got work to do . come on , let 's go . drucilla : you know what ... neil : go on . drucilla : you 're gon na make olivia one lucky lady , i 'm telling you right now . and , you know what , honey , you are so fine . she is just gon na -- neil : get out of here , you ! go on ! crazy girl . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . kristoff : the masquerade ball was one of the coolest things that i 've ever been a part of as an actor . please welcome dionysus , the greek god of wine , who will surely try to work his magic on the beautiful diana tonight . [ applause ] kristoff : it was one of the rare occasions that everyone was onstage . i will never forget it . there will never be another memory like that . case : and when we would shoot group scenes , if kristoff was gon na be in the scene ... camryn : oh , no ... case : we were laughing and horsing around in the scene . joshua : purposely kept us apart . case : yeah . nick : i 'd pay money to get jack on the dance floor . jack : hey , i got rhythm . neil : wait a minute . now , you should turn that music on because jack and i are gon na bust a move ! nick : ooh ! joshua : my favorite was when we played basketball . what a lot of people do n't know is if you look at our knees , we have knee braces . we had both come off major knee surgery . nick : what you doing out here ? is it seniors day ? neil : must be seniors day . you 're here . joshua : kristoff 's like , `` dude , should we do this ? `` i 'm like , `` i think we got to do it man . we 'll just try and take it easy . `` and it looked like two really old , slow guys trying to play basketball against each other . and we laughed about it so much . nick : oh , no ! neil : oh ! what is that ? um , son , that is game ! nick : whatever . whatever . joshua : i was so much better than him . [ laughter ] christel : i remember a scene when it was me , greg rikaart , and michael graziadei , and it was when me and daniel , the character , were together . and so he 's , like , upset with daniel and kevin . me , daniel , and kevin are in , like , this break room , and kristoff comes up ... kevin : do we know what we 're gon na tell her dad ? christel : we were talking about it , and he goes , `` whose dad ? `` neil : tell whose dad what ? christel : lily 's dad ? [ laughter ] neil : what 's going on , y ' all ? kristoff : i said , `` you do n't want to mess with this black man . `` and greg looked at me and he said , `` that 's not in the script . `` [ laughs ] i said , `` it is now , greg . `` [ laughter ] melody : that 's great . eric : kristoff ... he was a ray of sunlight . when he came in , he just lightened up the stage , did n't he ? kristoff : neil entered into victor 's life many , many years ago . i love that period of the show because it just -- it gave me the opportunity to , um , work with eric and find out who he really was . and i still do n't really know , but a little bit . you know , i got a little bit . victor : i want you to know that i 've entrusted you with this because you have proven to be loyal to me . i know i can trust you . eric : neil was one of the few people that victor really trusted . that applies to real life , as well . he was one of the very few people i trusted . victor : i 'm determined to be back in a week . nikki : a week ? oh , victor . neil : hey , it 's obvious . this man right here , he 's trying to show off . victor : oh , you see right through me , neil . kristoff : eric braeden is always present when he 's working . he wants the scene to work . maybe more for him . eric , i love you , man . you know i can say that about you , man . come on . we boys , are n't we ?

[ laughter ] rowell : most mankind is n't all mankind , and kristoff , i think we can agree , was not most people . melody : he just had such a love of life . neil : thank you . melody : whenever we would go to a party or an event , the first thing i wanted to know when i walked in the door was `` where 's kristoff ? `` because i knew wherever he was , that 's where the fun was being had . eric : that 's right . melody : and i wanted to be encompassed in that . and he never disappointed . bryton : he had the strength to make the choice every day he came to work here to be joyful . rowell :

around and having a great time . neil : wait . listen to me . if you ever need to talk or hear from a friend that you 're not losing it , i want you to call me , okay ? you 've had a few rough months . you 're not alone . there are people who care . victoria : thank you . that 's nice to hear . i 'm in better shape because of you . amelia : i got to give him a great big hug the last time i saw him . that 's just kristoff . he just has a way about him that takes all of your -- and then it goes away , and then you just give him a hug , and i 'm so glad that that was the last time , and i had a chance to hug him . rowell : just like when he hugged me , and i 'm sure it was true for all of us , that he really hugged us . jess : he would open his arms and hug you . that hug was true . but like you were so special to him . not like , `` oh , there 's jess . hi , jess . `` it was like you were super - special to him and did mean something to him . melody : you mentioned his hugs , and , of course , those hugs are famous . i mean , he just -- he instilled all the joy and wonderment of life in those hugs , and you came away with so much more than just a hug . jason : he gave you a hug , and he was instant , and he had an amazing ability just to drop in with you and be so present . marla : i met him -- oh , gosh , it was the late ' 70s , ' 80s -- on `` generations . `` and then , when i came back here , he was in my first scene back here . dina : bonjour , gentlemen . devon : it 's our pleasure , madame mergeron . i 'm devon hamilton . it 's ery nice to meet you . marla : what was

's touched so many lives , not just mine . yours , yours , and so many others , and we all know that . and the only thing i 've ever known as a brother and felt unconditional love as a brother was kristoff st . john . neil : i might have a long road to travel . i admit it , i 'm scared . to you . it 's not denial . it 's optimism . that i got you . and i can beat this with you and a whole lot of other people that i 'm walking on this road with , so i thank you . and i love you , man . malcolm : you 're my brother , man . you 're all i got . doug : i found something that i sent him years

`` and kristoff said , `` i want the scared kid with the baseball hat on and the sunglasses to play my brother . he 's got a long way to go , but i know he can do it . `` with this one little additional sponsorship lily : dad , it 's my life . all right ? it 's not your fault . neil : lily , that 's -- that 's not how i see it . i mean , i -- i was n't there for you . there was many years that i missed out on , and , unfortunately , i ca n't make up for that . lily : yeah , and i 'm not asking you to . neil : maybe not . sometimes , i think of you as my little girl . lily : yeah , but i 'm not that little girl . you know , i 'm old enough now to make my own choices . that 's why i have to trust me because i 'm not stupid . kristoff : the character of lily changed midstream , and christel khalil was brought on to the show . christel : the first time i met him was during my screen test to play lily . kristoff : i 'll never forget watching christel come on the stage . christel : he was just so loving and open , and he just kind of was like , `` hey ! you 're gon na do great ! this is gon na be so good ! `` and i was like , `` oh , okay ! `` kristoff : beautiful girl , beautiful smile , wonderful actress . `` i 'd love to work with her . `` christel : acting with him was n't acting . it was the easiest thing i ever had to do . i 've never seen an actor who , as soon as he starts speaking , he 's just present and he 's there . neil : and i am always here for you . you know that . lily : i know . and speaking of which ... neil : mm - hmm . lily : you know how i said that i wanted to keep things casual since it 's our second time getting married and , um , i wanted to walk myself down the aisle ... neil : yeah . yeah . yeah , whatever -- whatever you want . lily : well , good , because , um ... i want you by my side . neil : you see that ? you see that , right ? because that is what we have . that 's the daughter - father connection because -- no , no ! seriously . whoa , whoa . lily : you 're such a dork . neil : hold on , i 'm not a dork . i was thinking in my head , right when you said that , right when you said it , i was like , `` let me walk her down the aisle ... `` lily : oh , my gosh . okay , well , clearly , you think - very loud sometimes . [ laughs ] neil : oh , yeah ? and how about right now ? christel : any time i had a scene with kristoff , it did n't feel like i was acting with neil winters , it felt like i was just talking to my dad . kristoff : in fact , the name lily is so close to my lola . and is that by chance ? nah . they 're both beautiful girls , and christel , i consider her family , one of my daughters . neil : and so it begins . lily : hey , dad . neil : hey there , lily . devon . kristoff : when bryton first came on the show , i was thrilled because i had watched `` family matters `` like nobody 's business . bryton : being on that show made me comfortable with being on a set and being in this environment , but i did n't know what it meant to get better and grow as an actor until i got here . kristoff : i realized , `` i 'm working with little richie . little richie is going to be my son . bryton : i knew -- when i got here , i knew what kristoff represented , i knew he could do it all effortlessly . neil : i am deeply , deeply sorry for having deceived you . devon : which time ? neil : i meant it . i meant it when i said that i had a change of heart . devon : because your back was up against the wall . are you afraid of what i 'm gon na do now that i know ? because you sure as hell should be . bryton : he just made me feel very safe , like i was his peer , not like i was someone half his age , you know , who was n't quite there yet . he always made me feel like i was there and wanted me to be there with him . devon : [ chuckles ] i can hear . lily : wait , i mean , how is it ? is it clearer than before ? devon : yeah . oh , my god . lily : oh , my god ! oh , my gosh ! devon : [ laughs ] neil : yeah . yeah . devon : [ laughs ] bryton : he made the energy of every day on set about raising us up and about making us feel like he was proud . and he knew that if we could feel that way and have that confidence , it made the entirety of the show , you know , the best it could be . peter : neil winters was a great friend of the abbott family . kristoff st . john was so much more than that , for all of us . i worked with him for 27 years , got to know him pretty well . neil : um , mr . abbott ? here 's the monthly status report & on key customers , sir . jack : thanks . oh , uh , wait . you 're , uh -- you 're neil . neil winters . you did the product focus groups report for me . neil : yes . yes , sir , that 's me . jack : you did a hell of a job . keep up the good work . neil : yes , sir . i certainly will . thank you , mr . abbott . peter : i had to do some of my most difficult scenes -- jack goes off the cabin and is gon na take some pills , and just before he does , he calls his sponsor . kristoff showed up , and just took over . neil : i hear you , brother . i do . but know this -- you 're still jack abbott . does jack know how many lives he 's touched , how many lives he 's saved ? well , let me tell you something , i thank jack abbott because , see , that 's who you really are . and nothing that you learn about yourself can change that . so do n't play yourself , jack , and do n't tell me that everything that you believe in has been destroyed and is gone . because that 's not how it is , and it never will be . peter : it seems to be a recurring theme , how everyone felt that they were the only one in the room when they were with him . mishael : when you look at him , something happens to you as an actor . you forget that you 're acting . you forget about the cameras . and you just see this ... incredibly giving , honest , open person . jess : when he got hired , i thought he was gorgeous , and i thought that he was a keeper here . i thought he 'd do really well here . jill : i am not rattled , believe me . i have n't felt this good in a long , long time . now , if you 'll excuse me ... neil : you have a date tonight , do n't you ? i thought so . so , come on , jill . who 's the new man in your life ? jill : oh , you would n't believe me if i told you . neil : try me . jill : no , forget it . just forget we had the whole conversation . neil : uh - huh . it 's that hot , huh ? jill : [ sighs ] it 's incendiary . neil : ooh . jack : wish me luck . neil : i do n't think she 's gon na need it . jess : he was very , very there and present and so realistic . jill : [ laughs ] look at him ! father of the bride , just sitting here , eating cake . [ laughter ] neil : evidently , i 'm being asked to say something , and i do n't really have much to say . [ laughter ] no , i 'm kidding . really . you said your vows , and now it 's my turn . um , lily ... i love you so much , first of all , okay ? but i want to thank god for your smile because you light up my life , and i 'm sure you light up everyone else 's lives here . i want thank god for your love and joy , as you make me feel ever - so - special . and i want to thank god for you . yeah , you , this guy , right here . for proving that you are gon na keep my daughter safe and you 're gon na keep her loved . cane : yes , i will . neil : and , dru , i know you are extremely proud of the two of them , as i am . cheers . cane : cheers . thank you . jill : well done . neil : and i had nothing to say . jill : i know , that 's what you said . daniel : i remember one of my first scenes with kristoff , where i had to tell him that i loved lily . neil : are you in love with her ? cane : yes , sir , i think i am . daniel : we had this scene . he 's berating me about the age thing , and he just , like , gave me this scene , and i 'm just , like , watching him talk to me , and i was like , `` wow . `` it 's the first time i really understood the depth he had as an actor . neil : let me tell something about my daughter , if you do n't already know . she 's very strong - willed and independent , which i 'm sure you find very attractive . but she 's also young and vulnerable . see , the word `` love , `` it 's a very powerful word , right ? cane : yeah . neil : do n't use it lightly with my daughter because it can be devastating . daniel : and then , all of a sudden , it just made sense . i realized , `` wow , this is an icon . `` i 'm in the presence of greatness . i really was . neil , the way you turned out ... i 'm proud of you , son . i 'm so proud of you . neil : [ sobbing ] [ sighs ] mom ... -keep it down there . i have a system . hilary : [ laughs ] thank you ... for being kind and loving and sexy ... and for making terrible picks at march madness . mishael : it was one of our vow scenes that i had to do . in the middle of a the scene , i could tell it just was n't going the way that we rehearsed it . he knew i could do better . and he dropped a line . and i saw it in his eyes that he dropped that line for me . [ laughter ] because he was like , `` you can do better than this , `` like , `` you got this . `` and i just -- i just felt so seen and so appreciated and just -- he did n't have to do that . rowell : he didn't . mishael : and the fact that he just , you know , threw himself on the sword just for me , and he was just like , `` no , no . we need to do it again . yeah , let 's do that again . `` and he made it look like it was for him , but i saw it in his eyes it was for me . and then we did it again , and it was amazing , and it was the best scene ever . hilary : i love you . and us . i am so lucky and so grateful . neil : i 'm the lucky one . eileen : one of the biggest blessings of being on this show was the last six months when i got to work with him . and it was a surprise . we did n't really know we were gon na be thrown together . ashley : what ? neil : i think this dinner has officially become a celebration . and that , my dear , calls for this celebration . ashley : [ laughs ] okay . what are we celebrating ? neil : being stress - free . ashley : oh ! neil : at least for tonight . ashley : oh ! [ both laugh ] neil : i love that . ashley : what , my dancing , right ? neil : your laugh . ashley : oh . you know what , i have n't really felt much like laughing lately . but i 'm realizing that things are just so ... effortless with you . neil : like this ? eileen : i just really cherish those scenes because working with him was like breathing because he was such a giving soul and a lovely man , and no matter what was going on in his personal life , he always made a point of asking you how you were and what was going on with you , and that you mattered . before we begin the formal ceremony , permit me , if you will , a few personal comments . rowell : kristoff was always trying to get people on the show ... [ laughter ] and he just wanted to share , right ? so his dad was our minister . bryton : that 's his dad ? wow . christel : oh ! rowell : this is his dad , christopher st . john . since neil and drucilla have consented together in the bond of matrimony and have pledged themselves each to the other , in the presence of these witnesses , i now declare that they are husband and wife . those whom god has joined together , let no man put asunder . amen . neil : amen . neil , you may kiss your bride . neil : kiss my bride . [ laughter , applause ] rowell : to work with him was effortless . neil : everything okay ? drucilla : yeah , she said our daughter 's fast asleep . neil : yeah , fast asleep , probably dreaming of boys . drucilla : well , what else , honey ? she 's a teenager . so , listen ... neil : mm . drucilla : did you really enjoy dancing with me tonight ? neil : oh , dru , honey , do you really have to ask me ? i learn new moves every time i 'm out with you . drucilla : i know that 's right . so , how come we do n't do it anymore ? you know , we used to go dancing all the time , remember ? remember , we used to be out there like -- neil : baby , baby . i got an idea . drucilla : what ? what ? neil : why do n't we do some more dancing right now ? i 'll go warm up the stereo , put on your favorite cd . come on . drucilla : oh , wait , wait , wait . you know what , you know what , we have n't had this apartment to ourselves in weeks . neil : mm . drucilla : i was thinking we could be a little more creative . neil : okay . all right . i like where you 're headed with this . what do you have in mind ? drucilla : well , i thought that we would go to bed early tonight , right ? neil : yeah ... drucilla : and i would give you one of my special coconut oil rub - downs . neil : oh , i 'm loving that . drucilla : you know we need to rest after that one . [ laughs ] neil : i 'm loving that . yeah , let 's keep the coconut oil hot ... drucilla : yeah . neil : in the meantime , why do n't we play some fun and games ? drucilla : fun and -- wait . what are you talking about , fun and games ? neil : come on . good things come to those who wait . how about a little two- handed poker ? rowell : i do n't imagine in my lifetime i will ever have a scene partner like him , and certainly not for 14 years . neil : no , you 're not doing this for me , are you ? drucilla : i know that . i was doing it to loosen nathan up for myself . but there 's no reason why the four of us ca n't walk away from this happy campers . neil : okay , fine . right . all right , why do n't you just walk away , out of the office , right now ? come on , let 's go . i got work to do . come on , let 's go . drucilla : you know what ... neil : go on . drucilla : you 're gon na make olivia one lucky lady , i 'm telling you right now . and , you know what , honey , you are so fine . she is just gon na -- neil : get out of here , you ! go on ! crazy girl . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . kristoff : the masquerade ball was one of the coolest things that i 've ever been a part of as an actor . please welcome dionysus , the greek god of wine , who will surely try to work his magic on the beautiful diana tonight . [ applause ] kristoff : it was one of the rare occasions that everyone was onstage . i will never forget it . there will never be another memory like that . case : and when we would shoot group scenes , if kristoff was gon na be in the scene ... camryn : oh , no ... case : we were laughing and horsing around in the scene . joshua : purposely kept us apart . case : yeah . nick : i 'd pay money to get jack on the dance floor . jack : hey , i got rhythm . neil : wait a minute . now , you should turn that music on because jack and i are gon na bust a move ! nick : ooh ! joshua : my favorite was when we played basketball . what a lot of people do n't know is if you look at our knees , we have knee braces . we had both come off major knee surgery . nick : what you doing out here ? is it seniors day ? neil : must be seniors day . you 're here . joshua : kristoff 's like , `` dude , should we do this ? `` i 'm like , `` i think we got to do it man . we 'll just try and take it easy . `` and it looked like two really old , slow guys trying to play basketball against each other . and we laughed about it so much . nick : oh , no ! neil : oh ! what is that ? um , son , that is game ! nick : whatever . whatever . joshua : i was so much better than him . [ laughter ] christel : i remember a scene when it was me , greg rikaart , and michael graziadei , and it was when me and daniel , the character , were together . and so he 's , like , upset with daniel and kevin . me , daniel , and kevin are in , like , this break room , and kristoff comes up ... kevin : do we know what we 're gon na tell her dad ? christel : we were talking about it , and he goes , `` whose dad ? `` neil : tell whose dad what ? christel : lily 's dad ? [ laughter ] neil : what 's going on , y ' all ? kristoff : i said , `` you do n't want to mess with this black man . `` and greg looked at me and he said , `` that 's not in the script . `` [ laughs ] i said , `` it is now , greg . `` [ laughter ] melody : that 's great . eric : kristoff ... he was a ray of sunlight . when he came in , he just lightened up the stage , did n't he ? kristoff : neil entered into victor 's life many , many years ago . i love that period of the show because it just -- it gave me the opportunity to , um , work with eric and find out who he really was . and i still do n't really know , but a little bit . you know , i got a little bit . victor : i want you to know that i 've entrusted you with this because you have proven to be loyal to me . i know i can trust you . eric : neil was one of the few people that victor really trusted . that applies to real life , as well . he was one of the very few people i trusted . victor : i 'm determined to be back in a week . nikki : a week ? oh , victor . neil : hey , it 's obvious . this man right here , he 's trying to show off . victor : oh , you see right through me , neil . kristoff : eric braeden is always present when he 's working . he wants the scene to work . maybe more for him . eric , i love you , man . you know i can say that about you , man . come on . we boys , are n't we ?

'cause to me , that 's just plain foolish . jack : how dare you say that bradley , i can not so much as lift a finger ? brad : because of newman . jack : if he got wind that i was involved again ... brad : damn him . i knew we should n't have agreed to that stipulation . jack : well , no sense in mulling over that now . you have no idea how much i would like to roll up my sleeves and dig in here . do you have any idea what this feels like , watching my father 's company go south ? it 's like standing on the shore watching man drown . brad : with victor newman keeping you from running in to save him . jack : yeah , that 's about the size of it . now he 's back in town , and the sun is behind a permanent dark cloud . brad : the man sucks the life out of everything everywhere he goes . how ashley 's defended him all these years , i will never understand . jack : yeah , that makes two of us .

elizabeth : franco , it 's me . i 'm just checking to see how things are going with jake . give me a text when you get a chance . bye . dr. obrecht : personal calls while on duty ? how professional . elizabeth : i 'm on break . when did you start doing rounds on this floor ? dr. obrecht : since the illustrious dr. finn took a leave of absence without so much as a kopf hoch ( heads up ) . his caseload was divided among the more responsible physicians , and now we 're forced to pick up his slack . it 's thoughtless , arrogant . typical . elizabeth : i 'm sure he had good reasons . dr. obrecht : ah , there 's someone who can give us some insight . hayden : excuse me ? dr. obrecht : what 's the reason behind your boyfriend 's hasty departure ?

[ inhales deeply ] now we just have to ... face what 's left of our lives . i know it was always gon na be very tough for my parents , but , uh ... nelle made it worse .

[ scene_break ] nina : um , you want to work for me a - as charlotte 's nanny ? nelle : mm - hmm . well , i 'm qualified and experienced . and , um , i was studying to be a teacher -- an elementary - school teacher -- before i came to port charles , but i had to put it on hold due to money issues . nina : oh . nelle : i was also , um , working as a teacher 's aide ... before . and i 'm great with kids . nina : yeah , well , charlotte certainly thinks so . [ scene_break ] valentin : charlotte and nina are all that matter to me -- their happiness , our future as a family . i wo n't let you disrupt that . and if you persist ... i will remove you for good . anna : do it . just give me an excuse . valentin : poor choice of words . i will remove your presence from my life . it will work to both of our advantages -- me out of yours , you out of mine . anna : just like that ? valentin : just like that . anna : okay . valentin : warring nations can call a truce . so can we . what do you say ? you go your way , i go mine . what 's past stays in the past . anna : oh , it sounds very reasonable . but you 're really good at that , are n't you ? that 's one of your best tactics , is to present something outrageous and make it sound perfectly rational and acceptable . valentin : is peace irrational ? anna : oh , no . peace , no . but ignorance . they 're two totally different things . and i want to know the truth about what happened between us . and i 'm not gon na stop until i get it . [ scene_break ] nina : you know , it 's amazing that you have so much experience , but , you know , being a nanny 's very different from being a teacher 's aide . nelle : of course . nina : yeah . nelle : but when working with young children , like kindergartners , you have to relate to them on a personal level . you know , anticipate their needs , care for them . you know , charlotte is very bright already . nina : mm - hmm . nelle : i could provide tutorial support . school 's coming up , is n't it ? nina : well , that 's a great pitch . [ both laugh ] nina : definitely . um , and you 'd be helping me out , no doubt , no doubt . but ... why are n't you working with carly anymore ? i know that she was more than satisfied with your performance . why did you quit so abruptly ? nelle : i should probably clear that up . um ... i did n't exactly quit working for carly . nina : okay , so you were fired . got it . i think you should tell me why . [ scene_break ] michael : dad made a terrible mistake when he and my mom were going through a really tough time . worst part was he lied , and he kept it a secret . dante : what about you ? michael : i mean , if they split , you know , it would n't be the first time , so i would just have to focus on getting ... avery and josslyn through it , so ... dante : yeah , that 's not what i meant . i 'm talking about you and nelle . michael : [ scoffs ] dante : i mean , i could see you guys were getting close . michael : yeah , well , you know what ? that whole thing -- the whole thing was a big mess . a lot of people got hurt . and , uh ... least of all was me . [ scene_break ] bobbie : life is complicated , carly . you and sonny have gone a few rounds , but somehow ... you wind up back together again . maybe there 's a reason for that . or maybe this is the tipping point . only time will tell . carly : maybe it 's more than that , you know ? maybe i 'm getting exactly what i deserve . bobbie : no . let me stop you right there . the only people responsible for this are sonny and that lying tramp nelle . you do not own any of this . carly : mom , i know exactly who 's to blame for all this . yeah , and the fact that nelle deceived my entire family for months -- it makes me want to scream , especially because i 'm the one who invited her in . but i 've been thinking about this . hell , i 've been doing a lot of thinking since morgan 's death , and i keep trying to wrap my head around what 's going on , and i keep trying to make sense of everything , and i keep trying to find something real in all of this . and the only thing that i can come up with is a hypocrite . i mean , is n't that -- is n't that true ? who am i to unload on nelle for worming her way into my family and into my husband 's bed ? is n't that karma ? is n't this payback for what i did to you ? [ scene_break ] valentin : this pretense of yours that you do n't know anything or you 've somehow forgotten everything -- this is a real mind game . i mean , for what ? anna : well , what reason would i have ? what earthly reason ? so , you keep saying we have a past , but yet you -- you go out of your way to not speak of it . why ? why would you do that ? you want a truce ? prove it . just tell me what it is that i want to know and then we 'll be done with it . it 'll be settled once and for all . just ... valentin : you 're good . you are good . [ sighs ] i can almost believe that you truly do n't know what you 've done . anna : i do n't know ! valentin : all right , i 'll play along . ask me anything . anna : why was there a kill order against you issued in my name ? [ scene_break ] tracy : so , are you gon na ignore my question ? finn : seems only fair since you ignored mine . [ sniffles ] what are you doing in my room ? tracy : looking for you . your turn . did you take zen - zen today ? finn : no , i did n't . [ chuckles ] do i really look like somebody who got their fix ? i 'm trying to quit this thing , tracy . i even went so far as to call a rehab clinic . tracy : that 's commendable . but then , why was your kit open ? and what spilled on the floor ? [ cap clatters ] finn : i never said i did n't want zen - zen . i just said i did n't take any . this ? this represents the last of my supply , and i fumbled it away . tracy : well , you may have saved your life . finn : if you say so . tracy : you gon na offer me a drink ? finn : would you like a drink ? here . enjoy . tracy : thanks . actually , that 's not a word i would use . you look pretty miserable to me . and not for nothing , rehabs usually discourage drinking . but since this is your last hurrah , you really ought to spring for the good stuff . when are you checking in ? need a ride ? finn : no room at the inn . tracy : oh . so go in the morning . do you need me to pull any strings for you ? finn : i changed my mind . i realized i 'm not really a -- a group - therapy kinda guy . i ... i know i need to do this , but i need to do it alone , on my terms . tracy : how asinine can you get ? [ scene_break ] hayden : i do n't see how it 's any of your business what dr. finn does during his leave of absence . elizabeth : hayden , you may as well just tell her the truth . okay , dr. finn does n't want anybody to know , but he is working on an article about his cure . it 's for a prestigious medical journal . dr. obrecht : is this true ? elizabeth : yeah . dr. obrecht : a prestigious medical journal ? which one ? elizabeth : oh , well , we ca n't say . dr. obrecht : well , did n't take long for his ego to kick in , did it ? i should 've known he 'd be the first to believe his own hype . elizabeth : well , maybe after his generous contribution and all his hard work , he was just needing some time off . and when he comes back , i 'm sure he 'll be a better doctor for it . dr. obrecht : [ scoffs ] we 'll see . this time next year , he 'll probably be on a book tour . hayden : [ sighs ] i did n't need you to save me , if that 's what you were trying to do . elizabeth : oh . she 's a pain . and besides , i think i have a pretty good idea what you 're going through with finn . if you ever want to talk , i 'm around . hayden : no . i 'm good . [ scene_break ] anna : there was a kill order against you issued in my name , and i have no memory of it . but you clearly do . valentin : you ca n't leave that alone ? anna : no , you owe me the truth . valentin : i owe you n - nothing !

[ scene_break ] nelle : carly and i had a difference of opinion on what my job entailed . nina : hm . listen , you seem like a highly capable young woman . but , um [ chuckles softly ] i really do n't want to get in the middle of a disagreement between you and carly , so ... i 'm sorry . nelle : no , it 's okay . um , no , i under -- i understand . thank you anyway . charlotte : nina , look . nelle helped me add up these numbers . nina : oh , my gosh . wow . you added up all of those numbers ? charlotte : it 's fun . thanks for helping me , nelle . nelle : of course . i knew you could do it . high five . [ both chuckle ] nelle : i better get going . [ sighs ] um , thanks again for letting me keep the dress . i 'll use it for interviews . nina : okay , yeah . nelle , nelle , wait a second . wait a second . wait a second . listen ... well , charlotte obviously loves you . and you would be a huge asset in preparing her for school , so ... let 's just do the interview . nelle : really ? now ? 'cause -- 'cause i have my -- i have my résumé on a flash drive , so i can just -- nina : no , do n't worry . do n't worry . do n't worry . you already pretty much recited your résumé . and i 'm sure that carly did a background check on you before she hired you . so , um , there is just one thing -- whoever takes care of charlotte , i need to know them on a personal level . nelle : okay . what did you have in mind ? [ scene_break ] bobbie : carly , carly . what good does it do to dredge up past mistakes ? we put all of that to rest years ago . carly : i know . and i 'm grateful . but i never truly understood what i put you through until now . i mean , you and tony were trying to rebuild your marriage and your lives after losing b.j . , and i destroyed that by sleeping with him . bobbie : oh , honey . my marriage to tony was in trouble long before you blew into town . carly : but you guys never got back together afterwards , mom . bobbie : because other things came up . i mean , it 's true -- we separated because of what happened , but infidelity does n't have to end a marriage . tony and i both made choices that kept us apart . i mean , you remember how he -- he lashed out at the world . he took a dark turn . you know that better than anyone . and i was just trying to heal , make peace with myself and with you . carly : you 're not suggesting i should forgive nelle . bobbie : oh , hell no . you were my daughter . and i loved you , even when i could n't admit it to myself . the situation with nelle is completely different . i mean , despite her connection to joss , she is not your flesh and blood . you showed her love and she stabbed you in the back . you owe her nothing . and the sooner you put her out of your mind , the better . carly : thank you . thank you for being on my side . [ chuckles ] bobbie : always . you know , it 's a good thing you were n't here earlier because nelle was . carly : i 'm not afraid of running into her . she needs to be afraid of running into me . bobbie : oh , well , yes , and that 's exactly the point i was trying to make to her . and i told her to get out or i would call security and have her thrown back in the gutter where she belongs , and she went running for the elevator . carly : oh , gosh .

[ glass thuds ] finn : listen -- it 's not about you , tracy . you ca n't help me . tracy : hayden can . call her . finn : she ca n't help , either . tracy : yeah , not if you do n't let her in . finn : stay out of this , tracy , please . i can do this on my own . tracy : when hayden needed you , you were right there by her side . let her do that for you . finn : i do n't want her to see me like this ! tracy : she loves you ! she wants to be there for you . oh , finn . let her in . let somebody in . finn : no . i do n't need anybody . i do n't need you . i do n't need her . and the last person that should be giving relationship advice is you ! [ scene_break ] michael : i feel like an idiot , okay ? i feel stupid . dante : well , you 're neither . michael : yeah , well , i sure acted like it . i mean , what ? i - i could sidestep a hostile takeover , but i could n't see that nelle was up to no good ? i mean , she played all of us . she used me as a pawn in a scheme against my own mother . dante : wow . would you just take it easy ? y - you 're not a mind reader . you just said she played everybody . michael : yeah , but i should 've known better . given who my family is on both sides , i should 've been more on guard for all of us . i - i was too trusting when she came into our lives . i - i made this happen . dante : okay . so , what 's the solution ? you become a cynic ? you build walls , be a player ? that 's not you , and it 's no way to live . michael : yeah , well , this is n't easy . i hate -- i hate not knowing how to feel . nelle -- nelle -- nelle , she told me -- she told me she was gon na turn things around , that she wanted to have a fresh start and just clean slate . but even -- even after everything that she 'd done , for a second , i ... i did . i wanted to believe her . dante : do you believe her ? michael : [ sighs ] i ... it does n't matter . nelle did what she did . and now everyone 's hurting . dante : well , you know what does matter ? if it helps you figure out whether or not you can forgive her . [ scene_break ] carly : you 've got to be kidding me . bobbie : you wait right here . i 'm going to take out the trash . carly : no . bobbie : you have the gall to show your face in here again ? nelle : you know what ? i do n't want any trouble . carly : then you should 've thought twice before you came to my place of business , nelle . nina : wait a second . wait a second . there is a child present . um , i know that there was some disagreement between you and nelle regarding her job , but , uh , let 's be mindful of little ears . carly : okay . well , nina , you 've been misinformed . and i would be more than happy to let you know why i felt it necessary to terminate nelle 's employment , but you are right . it is not a conversation for little ears . nina : um ... hey , there 's an empty table right there . why do n't you show nelle some of your new puzzles ? nelle : yes , show me your puzzles . nina : carly , i 'm sorry . i - i do n't know what 's going on between you and nelle . i do n't know . but i just want you to know that my nanny quit abruptly , and i need someone who -- i was about to give her an interview . carly : hiring nelle will be the worst mistake you ever make . [ scene_break ] valentin : so , your selective memory includes forgetting all the days you spent as a double agent ? anna : no . valentin : trading state secrets to the highest bidder ? you say that i 'm a traitor ? that 's what you are . anna : no . valentin : you can transfer all you want . you can project that you are the one responsible for what i have become . anna : oh , come on . what ? because i refused to kiss you ? seriously ? that is what justifies you selling out ? valentin : no . you are either lying to my face ... anna : no . valentin : ... again , about the cruelest thing that you ever did to me , or you are truly so ashamed that you have blocked it out . more likely , you have lied about it so much ... anna : do n't call me a liar ! valentin : ... that are believing the lie yourself ! anna : what about the lies that you tell and the secrets you keep and this man that you really are inside of this -- this charming exterior ? what about him ? valentin : you 're bleeding . [ scene_break ] carly : i have to say , i 'm a little surprised that you would even consider hiring nelle without asking me why i fired her . nina : i - i was just in the process of interviewing her . if i would 've gone forward , i would 've definitely called you for a reference . carly : all right , well , i 'll spare you the trouble . i fired nelle because she slept with my husband . yeah . and her real last name is benson . and she is the daughter of my adopted father , and it 's a long , sad story , but the truth is , nelle has a grudge against me . and the whole time that she was making herself indispensable to my family , she was setting me up for revenge . so , all the warmth and the kindness are just an act . she 's despicable , and she 's manipulative . so , you need to proceed at your own risk . nina : i 'm so sorry . obviously , i did not know this . carly : i know . th - that 's why i 'm telling you . nina : it 's just ... she was so good with charlotte , and charlotte loves her . carly : yeah . josslyn and avery loved her . hell , i did , too , until i found out the truth . bobbie : i can guarantee lulu wo n't want nelle anywhere near her daughter . nina : um , i 'm -- i 'm sorry , but who valentin and i hire for charlotte 's nanny has nothing to do with lulu . bobbie : like hell it does n't . lulu is charlotte 's mother . she should have a say in who raises her child . carly : hey , mom ... nina : mm - kay . um , before this gets any more awkward , i 'm just gon na take nelle and charlotte and we 're gon na go . bobbie : no , no , no . wait a minute . hold it . just a minute . charlotte is a spencer , whether you and valentin like it or not . now , maybe you do n't care enough to want to protect that child from nelle , but i certainly do . nelle : look , ms. reeves . bobbie : and so will her mother . nelle : i really do n't want to cause any more trouble , so let 's just call off the interview . nina : um , you know what ? no need . the interview is done . i just want to tell you -- you 're hired . [ scene_break ] hayden : i know a little bit about addiction , so i know finn 's got ... real challenges ahead of him , and i can see that i 've been a classic enabler -- begging and pleading and reasoning , even threatening him . anything to make him get the help that he needs . elizabeth : of course . you love him . hayden : yeah , well , i even tried guilting him with that . i said things like he valued his drugs over me , but it did n't work because it 's true . no matter what i said or did , he refused to get help . and no matter how many times i told him i would be there for him , he kept pushing me away . the other night , after you and franco left , i - i told him i would go home with him , and i would support him , but he did n't want me to . he -- he said that he had to deal with this alone . so i let him go , and i have n't seen him since . and i do n't know , am -- am i doing that because that 's the right thing to do ? or is it because i 'm scared i 'm not up for the job , you know ? elizabeth : you ca n't help finn until he 's ready to help himself . hayden : yeah , but he 's so stubborn . how am i gon na get through to him from a distance ? elizabeth : and i used to ask myself that same question before lucky got clean . i tried and tried to get through to him , and i thought it was up to me to get him to see the light , but it turns out it was n't . his father got through to him . hayden : yeah , well , finn does n't have anyone else . other than roxy . [ scoffs ] elizabeth : well , you never know who might break through . sometimes it 's the least likely person who winds up having the biggest impact . but you need to stop feeling guilty and make peace with the fact that person may not be you . [ scene_break ] tracy : fine . if you wo n't call her , i will . finn : [ chuckles ] your hypocrisy knows no bounds . what is your track record for marriage again ? tracy : excuse me . [ cell phone thuds ] tracy : what does that have to do with this ? and , by the way , i have plenty in my life to live for . thank you for that . finn : of course . yeah , of course . but , you know , since we 're just two pals being brutally honest with each other , why do n't we go down that greatest - hit list , huh ? let 's run it . let 's see . there 's a -- there 's a family business that you keep chasing after even though they fire you every chance they get . and you live in that big , old house up on the hill by the sheer grace of your brother 's widow . and from what i can tell from our conversations , you got two kids that are so self - involved they do n't realize how alone you really are , which might explain why you married so many con artists . 'cause after all , really , there is no mark like a rich , lonely woman who never got over her daddy issues . i 'm sorry . that went too far . i do n't even know why i said that . i was just trying to push you away ... make it so you would n't call hayden . i ... i did n't mean what i said . tracy : yeah , you did . you meant every word . and what you said is true -- not all of it , but enough . my circle is very limited . i never , uh , took much stock in friendships . i always thought that going it alone was the way to go . but the funny thing is ... alone is alone . and as i look around , i see that most of my family is gone . the number of christmas cards has diminished . and when i lie in bed at night , i wonder ... what would my life look like if i had let more people in ? just a couple . is that what you want for your life , finn ? [ scene_break ] michael : even if i can get past what nelle pulled , how could i ever be with her ? she tried to destroy my family . dante : [ clears throat ] michael : i mean , think about that . she pretended to -- to care about avery and -- and to care about josslyn , and the whole time , she was working to break up their home . no , and she succeeded . now -- now avery is living with dad and josslyn 's living with mom . how is that fair to anyone ? dante : all right , i knew you were gon na say that . michael : say what ? dante : this whole conversation we 're having , me playing devil 's advocate , it 's not 'cause i 'm invested in you being with nelle . it 's because time and time again , i 've seen you sacrifice yourself for everyone else . you always show up -- for sonny , carly , me , joss ... kristina , avery . michael : but they 're family . what am i supposed to do ? dante : you show up for yourself , man . michael : [ sighs ] dante : if you decide to kick nelle to the curb , i wo n't blame you . but just make sure that , if you do do that , you do it for you and no one else . i got to go . michael : all right . [ scene_break ] bobbie : unbelievable . wait until lulu hears . carly : mom , you 're not helping . nina : nelle , as of now , you are charlotte 's nanny . okay ? but that 's provisionally . one slipup , one lie , and you are fired . do you understand ? nelle : yes . yes . thank you . nina : okay . so , your first assignment is to take charlotte for some hot chocolate . then you 'll meet my husband , of course . um , here . let 's go . you want to get some hot chocolate ? charlotte : and a cookie ? nina : and a cookie , yeah , su -- well , you just had a cookie . you had -- okay , you can have another cookie . just one . here 's some money . here 's a card . just take it all . nelle : we got it . we got it . we got it all . nina : okay . thank you . have so much fun . nelle : okay , let 's go , charlotte . let 's get out of here . bobbie : if you did that to spite me , the joke is on you . because when that tramp winds up in bed with your husband , you will only have yourself to blame . carly : you lost your temper . i 've been known to do that myself a few times . it does n't make for the best decisions . nina : i did not hire nelle to spite your mother . i hired her because she has the appropriate background and because charlotte loves her . and also , because i believe , given the chance , people can change . it happened to me . i have a feeling it happened to you , too , carly . carly : oh , yeah , it did . mm - hmm . i made quite a few mistakes early on . and i was able to rebuild my life because someone gave me the benefit of the doubt -- absolutely . nina : why do n't we give nelle the same opportunity ? carly : maybe you 're right . or maybe nelle is going to use your kindness as an opening and betray you like she did me . do yourself a favor , nina -- watch your back . [ scene_break ] anna : it 's just a cut . it 's nothing . it 's not a cut . valentin : cuts do n't bleed that much . anna : well , they do when you 're on blood thinners . valentin : are you on blood thinners ? is that why you fell down at wyndemere ? anna : no . i was n't then . it -- it 's none of your business . valentin : wait , did you fall down at wyndemere , then i took you to the hospital , then they put you on blood thinners ? what is wrong ? what is happening to you , anna ? anna : i have cancer . valentin : i 'm so sorry . anna : it 's all right . it 's treatable . it 's not curable . but i 've been assured that i can live a full life , within certain limitations . so , there . valentin : i 'm sure you 're up to the challenge . anna : yeah . i 'll tell you what would help , would be peace of mind . valentin : here we go . anna : oh , why ? is it too much for you just to answer me ? please , just tell me the truth . tell me what i want to know . valentin : no . anna : do n't you dare leave . do n't you dare leave . do n't you -- valentin : do you want peace of mind ? then forget we were ever in each other 's lives . [ door closes ] anna : it 's anna devane . yeah , i 'm sure i am the last person that you would expect to hear from . but , uh , um , i have something really important that i need to talk to you about . [ ominous music ] [ scene_break ] finn : [ sniffs ] i would ask for forgiveness , but i do n't deserve it , and ... for the record , you have a lifetime of achievement to be proud of . tracy : i know i do . but i also have regrets . and if you are as smart as you think you are , you wo n't make the same mistakes i made . finn , going it alone seems like a really good idea , but what it is is really sad . you have a woman who loves you . she wants to share your struggles as well as your victories . the choice is yours . [ door closes ] [ scene_break ] hayden : i really appreciate you listening and for your advice . elizabeth : i 'm just glad i could help . hayden : i 'm not in the mood to hug . elizabeth : okay . [ cell phone ringing ] hayden : hayden barnes . finn : hi , it 's me . hayden : finn . finn : i was wrong . i ca n't do this alone . i need your help . [ scene_break ] nina : mrs. evans ' sister is sick again . again . valentin : [ exhales deeply ] nina : and , uh , she gave notice . actually , she gave no notice . she just quit abruptly . valentin : well , i 'm sorry to hear that . did you call the nanny agencies ? nina : well , the perfect candidate walked into my office . valentin : well , that 's fortuitous . nina : mm - hmm . valentin : do i get to meet this perfect candidate ? nina : mm - hmm . and let me tell you something -- if i catch her anywhere near your bed , i 'll strangle her with my own two hands . [ scene_break ] bobbie : ugh . poor lulu . first , she loses charlotte to valentin , and now nina hires that snake , nelle , as her nanny . carly : uh - huh . i know . i hate it , too . but lulu 's strong . she is . you know , there is a bright side to this . bobbie : oh , really ? and what would that be ? carly : with nelle holed up on spoon island , she will be far away from my family . [ scene_break ] michael : well , tell r & d they 'll have my sign - off once i 've reviewed the material . yeah , okay . well , no . first thing in the morning , as long as nothing else ... comes up . [ scene_break ] valentin : is there something about this nanny i should know ? nina : [ sighs ] i 'll explain it later . where were you all day ? valentin : well , in the spirit of full disclosure , and in lieu of your sudden murderous jealousy streak , i would like to tell you that i ... i was with anna . nina : okay . valentin : i went -- i went to see her to tell her i want to put our history to rest . for the sake of our family , i offered a truce . nina : nothing would make me happier . what did she say ? valentin : well , i do n't think it 's up to her to approve it . i 'm just gon na let go of an old grudge . because i meant what i said at the courthouse today . you and charlotte are all that matter to me . and my past is where it belongs -- it 's in the past . [ scene_break ] anna : oh . thank you for coming . [ door closes ] dr. obrecht : ordinarily , i do n't perform house calls , even for an old friend such as yourself . anna : well , this is n't for treatment or anything . i need something else . dr. obrecht : and what would that be ? anna : uh , answers . [ next_on ] laura ( to kevin ) : w - what are you saying , that you th -- that you agree with andré ? dillon ( to lulu ) : that sounds like a win to me . valentin : she 's erratic . nora : that 's what people say about you . dr. obrecht ( to anna ) : you must be hard up if you 're asking me for help . nelle ( to michael ) : are you telling me to go ? olivia jerome : you just could n't stay away from me . | elizabeth is confronted by obrecht at the hospital about the whereabouts of finn . hayden comes over and the two claim he is writing a piece for a medical journal . obrecht guesses that the success has gotten to his head . in hayden 's office elizabeth tries to tell hayden that she can not help a drug addict unless they want help . he could find help from someone else . hayden guesses she can accept this . she thanks elizabeth . elsewhere , tracy shows up at finn 's hotel room and tries to get him to admit he needs help . finn wants to drink for a month . tracy does n't think that will help . finn tries to lash out on tracy and claim her own life is a mess . he later tells her that he was lying and thinks she has had a great life . tracy still thinks that finn should call hayden . tracy leaves and finn does as much . he needs her help . | <s>[INST] elizabeth : franco , it 's me . i 'm just checking to see how things are going with jake . give me a text when you get a chance . bye . dr. obrecht : personal calls while on duty ? how professional . elizabeth : i 'm on break . when did you start doing rounds on this floor ? dr. obrecht : since the illustrious dr. finn took a leave of absence without so much as a kopf hoch ( heads up ) . his caseload was divided among the more responsible physicians , and now we 're forced to pick up his slack . it 's thoughtless , arrogant . typical . elizabeth : i 'm sure he had good reasons . dr. obrecht : ah , there 's someone who can give us some insight . hayden : excuse me ? dr. obrecht : what 's the reason behind your boyfriend 's hasty departure ? [ scene_break ] tracy : damn it , finn . finn ! are you here ? ! finn ? ! [ sighs ] [ beeps ] tracy : hi , this is tracy quartermaine . uh , could you please send security up to room 501 ? never mind . i ... i found what i was looking for . [ beeps ] finn : what are you doing here ? tracy : better question ... how much zen - zen did you shoot tonight ? [ scene_break ] dante : you , uh , hear from sonny about olivia jerome ? michael : yeah . yeah , i know that she 's the one who killed morgan . and i know that she 's in custody . he also told me that you were the arresting officer , so thank you for that . dante : i did n't do anything . by the time i got there , sonny and carly already had the woman at gunpoint . michael : what ? wait . mom and dad had the woman who killed morgan at gunpoint ? dante : [ scoffs ] yeah . michael : i 'm surprised she 's still alive . dante : me too . but i guess they realized that killing her would only prolong the agony ... michael : [ exhales deeply ] dante : ... make them suspects in her murder , and they realized the only way to end it was to hand her off to the cops . michael : i mean , look , all -- all any of us wanted was justice for morgan , you know , and now we got it . [ inhales deeply ] now we just have to ... face what 's left of our lives . i know it was always gon na be very tough for my parents , but , uh ... nelle made it worse . [ scene_break ] bobbie : there you are . carly : [ scoffs ] bobbie : do you ever return texts ? carly : i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry . i forgot that we were supposed to get together for a drink . i went to the hospital to see jason and to meet the baby . so adorable . but then he said something that got me thinking about sonny . bobbie : just thinking ? carly : and then i went to see him . bobbie : mm . okay . well , that is understandable . i 'm sure you have a lot to talk about . carly : we kissed , you know ? bobbie : mm - hmm . so , are you thinking of reconciling ? carly : mom , there 's only one person in the whole world who truly understands how i feel , and it 's sonny . but just because we understand each other does n't mean we should be together . bobbie : you 're right about that . carly : i mean , we always find ourselves right here , where one of us is mad and the other is sorry . bobbie : i 'm sure sonny is very sorry that he slept with nelle . it 's just too bad that did n't occur to him before he took her clothes off . carly : okay , all right . you know , obviously , i 'm really upset about the infidelity , but i 'm more upset about the lies . not only did sonny betray our marriage , he left me wide open to be screwed over my nelle . [ scene_break ] nina : um , you want to work for me a - as charlotte 's nanny ? nelle : mm - hmm . well , i 'm qualified and experienced . and , um , i was studying to be a teacher -- an elementary - school teacher -- before i came to port charles , but i had to put it on hold due to money issues . nina : oh . nelle : i was also , um , working as a teacher 's aide ... before . and i 'm great with kids . nina : yeah , well , charlotte certainly thinks so . [ scene_break ] valentin : charlotte and nina are all that matter to me -- their happiness , our future as a family . i wo n't let you disrupt that . and if you persist ... i will remove you for good . anna : do it . just give me an excuse . valentin : poor choice of words . i will remove your presence from my life . it will work to both of our advantages -- me out of yours , you out of mine . anna : just like that ? valentin : just like that . anna : okay . valentin : warring nations can call a truce . so can we . what do you say ? you go your way , i go mine . what 's past stays in the past . anna : oh , it sounds very reasonable . but you 're really good at that , are n't you ? that 's one of your best tactics , is to present something outrageous and make it sound perfectly rational and acceptable . valentin : is peace irrational ? anna : oh , no . peace , no . but ignorance . they 're two totally different things . and i want to know the truth about what happened between us . and i 'm not gon na stop until i get it . [ scene_break ] nina : you know , it 's amazing that you have so much experience , but , you know , being a nanny 's very different from being a teacher 's aide . nelle : of course . nina : yeah . nelle : but when working with young children , like kindergartners , you have to relate to them on a personal level . you know , anticipate their needs , care for them . you know , charlotte is very bright already . nina : mm - hmm . nelle : i could provide tutorial support . school 's coming up , is n't it ? nina : well , that 's a great pitch . [ both laugh ] nina : definitely . um , and you 'd be helping me out , no doubt , no doubt . but ... why are n't you working with carly anymore ? i know that she was more than satisfied with your performance . why did you quit so abruptly ? nelle : i should probably clear that up . um ... i did n't exactly quit working for carly . nina : okay , so you were fired . got it . i think you should tell me why . [ scene_break ] michael : dad made a terrible mistake when he and my mom were going through a really tough time . worst part was he lied , and he kept it a secret . dante : what about you ? michael : i mean , if they split , you know , it would n't be the first time , so i would just have to focus on getting ... avery and josslyn through it , so ... dante : yeah , that 's not what i meant . i 'm talking about you and nelle . michael : [ scoffs ] dante : i mean , i could see you guys were getting close . michael : yeah , well , you know what ? that whole thing -- the whole thing was a big mess . a lot of people got hurt . and , uh ... least of all was me . [ scene_break ] bobbie : life is complicated , carly . you and sonny have gone a few rounds , but somehow ... you wind up back together again . maybe there 's a reason for that . or maybe this is the tipping point . only time will tell . carly : maybe it 's more than that , you know ? maybe i 'm getting exactly what i deserve . bobbie : no . let me stop you right there . the only people responsible for this are sonny and that lying tramp nelle . you do not own any of this . carly : mom , i know exactly who 's to blame for all this . yeah , and the fact that nelle deceived my entire family for months -- it makes me want to scream , especially because i 'm the one who invited her in . but i 've been thinking about this . hell , i 've been doing a lot of thinking since morgan 's death , and i keep trying to wrap my head around what 's going on , and i keep trying to make sense of everything , and i keep trying to find something real in all of this . and the only thing that i can come up with is a hypocrite . i mean , is n't that -- is n't that true ? who am i to unload on nelle for worming her way into my family and into my husband 's bed ? is n't that karma ? is n't this payback for what i did to you ? [ scene_break ] valentin : this pretense of yours that you do n't know anything or you 've somehow forgotten everything -- this is a real mind game . i mean , for what ? anna : well , what reason would i have ? what earthly reason ? so , you keep saying we have a past , but yet you -- you go out of your way to not speak of it . why ? why would you do that ? you want a truce ? prove it . just tell me what it is that i want to know and then we 'll be done with it . it 'll be settled once and for all . just ... valentin : you 're good . you are good . [ sighs ] i can almost believe that you truly do n't know what you 've done . anna : i do n't know ! valentin : all right , i 'll play along . ask me anything . anna : why was there a kill order against you issued in my name ? [ scene_break ] tracy : so , are you gon na ignore my question ? finn : seems only fair since you ignored mine . [ sniffles ] what are you doing in my room ? tracy : looking for you . your turn . did you take zen - zen today ? finn : no , i did n't . [ chuckles ] do i really look like somebody who got their fix ? i 'm trying to quit this thing , tracy . i even went so far as to call a rehab clinic . tracy : that 's commendable . but then , why was your kit open ? and what spilled on the floor ? [ cap clatters ] finn : i never said i did n't want zen - zen . i just said i did n't take any . this ? this represents the last of my supply , and i fumbled it away . tracy : well , you may have saved your life . finn : if you say so . tracy : you gon na offer me a drink ? finn : would you like a drink ? here . enjoy . tracy : thanks . actually , that 's not a word i would use . you look pretty miserable to me . and not for nothing , rehabs usually discourage drinking . but since this is your last hurrah , you really ought to spring for the good stuff . when are you checking in ? need a ride ? finn : no room at the inn . tracy : oh . so go in the morning . do you need me to pull any strings for you ? finn : i changed my mind . i realized i 'm not really a -- a group - therapy kinda guy . i ... i know i need to do this , but i need to do it alone , on my terms . tracy : how asinine can you get ? [ scene_break ] hayden : i do n't see how it 's any of your business what dr. finn does during his leave of absence . elizabeth : hayden , you may as well just tell her the truth . okay , dr. finn does n't want anybody to know , but he is working on an article about his cure . it 's for a prestigious medical journal . dr. obrecht : is this true ? elizabeth : yeah . dr. obrecht : a prestigious medical journal ? which one ? elizabeth : oh , well , we ca n't say . dr. obrecht : well , did n't take long for his ego to kick in , did it ? i should 've known he 'd be the first to believe his own hype . elizabeth : well , maybe after his generous contribution and all his hard work , he was just needing some time off . and when he comes back , i 'm sure he 'll be a better doctor for it . dr. obrecht : [ scoffs ] we 'll see . this time next year , he 'll probably be on a book tour . hayden : [ sighs ] i did n't need you to save me , if that 's what you were trying to do . elizabeth : oh . she 's a pain . and besides , i think i have a pretty good idea what you 're going through with finn . if you ever want to talk , i 'm around . hayden : no . i 'm good . [ scene_break ] anna : there was a kill order against you issued in my name , and i have no memory of it . but you clearly do . valentin : you ca n't leave that alone ? anna : no , you owe me the truth . valentin : i owe you n - nothing ! [ sighs ] [ exhales deeply ] i could 've pressed charges when you broke into my home , but i did n't . i could 've left you for dead on my living - room floor , but i did n't . i want no part of this twisted game . i just want to forget that we ever knew each other . anna : well , just tell me what happened ! because i would never , ever order a hit against a fellow agent . never . unless you flipped . were you on the other side ? were you working for the dvx ? that 's it . [ scene_break ] nelle : carly and i had a difference of opinion on what my job entailed . nina : hm . listen , you seem like a highly capable young woman . but , um [ chuckles softly ] i really do n't want to get in the middle of a disagreement between you and carly , so ... i 'm sorry . nelle : no , it 's okay . um , no , i under -- i understand . thank you anyway . charlotte : nina , look . nelle helped me add up these numbers . nina : oh , my gosh . wow . you added up all of those numbers ? charlotte : it 's fun . thanks for helping me , nelle . nelle : of course . i knew you could do it . high five . [ both chuckle ] nelle : i better get going . [ sighs ] um , thanks again for letting me keep the dress . i 'll use it for interviews . nina : okay , yeah . nelle , nelle , wait a second . wait a second . wait a second . listen ... well , charlotte obviously loves you . and you would be a huge asset in preparing her for school , so ... let 's just do the interview . nelle : really ? now ? 'cause -- 'cause i have my -- i have my résumé on a flash drive , so i can just -- nina : no , do n't worry . do n't worry . do n't worry . you already pretty much recited your résumé . and i 'm sure that carly did a background check on you before she hired you . so , um , there is just one thing -- whoever takes care of charlotte , i need to know them on a personal level . nelle : okay . what did you have in mind ? [ scene_break ] bobbie : carly , carly . what good does it do to dredge up past mistakes ? we put all of that to rest years ago . carly : i know . and i 'm grateful . but i never truly understood what i put you through until now . i mean , you and tony were trying to rebuild your marriage and your lives after losing b.j . , and i destroyed that by sleeping with him . bobbie : oh , honey . my marriage to tony was in trouble long before you blew into town . carly : but you guys never got back together afterwards , mom . bobbie : because other things came up . i mean , it 's true -- we separated because of what happened , but infidelity does n't have to end a marriage . tony and i both made choices that kept us apart . i mean , you remember how he -- he lashed out at the world . he took a dark turn . you know that better than anyone . and i was just trying to heal , make peace with myself and with you . carly : you 're not suggesting i should forgive nelle . bobbie : oh , hell no . you were my daughter . and i loved you , even when i could n't admit it to myself . the situation with nelle is completely different . i mean , despite her connection to joss , she is not your flesh and blood . you showed her love and she stabbed you in the back . you owe her nothing . and the sooner you put her out of your mind , the better . carly : thank you . thank you for being on my side . [ chuckles ] bobbie : always . you know , it 's a good thing you were n't here earlier because nelle was . carly : i 'm not afraid of running into her . she needs to be afraid of running into me . bobbie : oh , well , yes , and that 's exactly the point i was trying to make to her . and i told her to get out or i would call security and have her thrown back in the gutter where she belongs , and she went running for the elevator . carly : oh , gosh . [ both laugh ] carly : oh . looks like security 's gon na get a second chance at her . [ scene_break ] [ knock on door ] hayden : i 'm busy ! please come back . elizabeth : hey . hayden : [ scoffs ] like i said , come in . elizabeth : i wanted to explain why i was so over - the - top about finn . hayden : there 's no need . you 've been amazingly , annoyingly gracious about the whole thing . elizabeth : when i saw him stealing meds , alarm bells went off in my head , and all i could think about was what lucky had put me through , and i just did n't want you to be blindsided like i was . and i do n't mean to push . i just know what you 're going through . i know it 's not easy . if there 's anything i can do for you , you know where to find me . hayden : elizabeth . wait . stay . please . [ scene_break ] tracy : and what makes you think you can just quit ?

[ scene_break ] carly : i have to say , i 'm a little surprised that you would even consider hiring nelle without asking me why i fired her . nina : i - i was just in the process of interviewing her . if i would 've gone forward , i would 've definitely called you for a reference . carly : all right , well , i 'll spare you the trouble . i fired nelle because she slept with my husband . yeah . and her real last name is benson . and she is the daughter of my adopted father , and it 's a long , sad story , but the truth is , nelle has a grudge against me . and the whole time that she was making herself indispensable to my family , she was setting me up for revenge . so , all the warmth and the kindness are just an act . she 's despicable , and she 's manipulative . so , you need to proceed at your own risk . nina : i 'm so sorry . obviously , i did not know this . carly : i know . th - that 's why i 'm telling you . nina : it 's just ... she was so good with charlotte , and charlotte loves her . carly : yeah . josslyn and avery loved her . hell , i did , too , until i found out the truth . bobbie : i can guarantee lulu wo n't want nelle anywhere near her daughter . nina : um , i 'm -- i 'm sorry , but who valentin and i hire for charlotte 's nanny has nothing to do with lulu . bobbie : like hell it does n't . lulu is charlotte 's mother . she should have a say in who raises her child . carly : hey , mom ... nina : mm - kay . um , before this gets any more awkward , i 'm just gon na take nelle and charlotte and we 're gon na go . bobbie : no , no , no . wait a minute . hold it . just a minute . charlotte is a spencer , whether you and valentin like it or not . now , maybe you do n't care enough to want to protect that child from nelle , but i certainly do . nelle : look , ms. reeves . bobbie : and so will her mother . nelle : i really do n't want to cause any more trouble , so let 's just call off the interview . nina : um , you know what ? no need . the interview is done . i just want to tell you -- you 're hired . [ scene_break ] hayden : i know a little bit about addiction , so i know finn 's got ... real challenges ahead of him , and i can see that i 've been a classic enabler -- begging and pleading and reasoning , even threatening him . anything to make him get the help that he needs . elizabeth : of course . you love him . hayden : yeah , well , i even tried guilting him with that . i said things like he valued his drugs over me , but it did n't work because it 's true . no matter what i said or did , he refused to get help . and no matter how many times i told him i would be there for him , he kept pushing me away . the other night , after you and franco left , i - i told him i would go home with him , and i would support him , but he did n't want me to . he -- he said that he had to deal with this alone . so i let him go , and i have n't seen him since . and i do n't know , am -- am i doing that because that 's the right thing to do ? or is it because i 'm scared i 'm not up for the job , you know ? elizabeth : you ca n't help finn until he 's ready to help himself . hayden : yeah , but he 's so stubborn . how am i gon na get through to him from a distance ? elizabeth : and i used to ask myself that same question before lucky got clean . i tried and tried to get through to him , and i thought it was up to me to get him to see the light , but it turns out it was n't . his father got through to him . hayden : yeah , well , finn does n't have anyone else . other than roxy . [ scoffs ] elizabeth : well , you never know who might break through . sometimes it 's the least likely person who winds up having the biggest impact . but you need to stop feeling guilty and make peace with the fact that person may not be you .

[ cell phone thuds ] tracy : what does that have to do with this ? and , by the way , i have plenty in my life to live for . thank you for that . finn : of course . yeah , of course . but , you know , since we 're just two pals being brutally honest with each other , why do n't we go down that greatest - hit list , huh ? let 's run it . let 's see . there 's a -- there 's a family business that you keep chasing after even though they fire you every chance they get . and you live in that big , old house up on the hill by the sheer grace of your brother 's widow . and from what i can tell from our conversations , you got two kids that are so self - involved they do n't realize how alone you really are , which might explain why you married so many con artists . 'cause after all , really , there is no mark like a rich , lonely woman who never got over her daddy issues . i 'm sorry . that went too far . i do n't even know why i said that . i was just trying to push you away ... make it so you would n't call hayden . i ... i did n't mean what i said . tracy : yeah , you did . you meant every word . and what you said is true -- not all of it , but enough . my circle is very limited . i never , uh , took much stock in friendships . i always thought that going it alone was the way to go . but the funny thing is ... alone is alone . and as i look around , i see that most of my family is gone . the number of christmas cards has diminished . and when i lie in bed at night , i wonder ... what would my life look like if i had let more people in ? just a couple . is that what you want for your life , finn ? [ scene_break ] michael : even if i can get past what nelle pulled , how could i ever be with her ? she tried to destroy my family . dante : [ clears throat ] michael : i mean , think about that . she pretended to -- to care about avery and -- and to care about josslyn , and the whole time , she was working to break up their home . no , and she succeeded . now -- now avery is living with dad and josslyn 's living with mom . how is that fair to anyone ? dante : all right , i knew you were gon na say that . michael : say what ? dante : this whole conversation we 're having , me playing devil 's advocate , it 's not 'cause i 'm invested in you being with nelle . it 's because time and time again , i 've seen you sacrifice yourself for everyone else . you always show up -- for sonny , carly , me , joss ... kristina , avery . michael : but they 're family . what am i supposed to do ? dante : you show up for yourself , man . michael : [ sighs ] dante : if you decide to kick nelle to the curb , i wo n't blame you . but just make sure that , if you do do that , you do it for you and no one else . i got to go . michael : all right . [ scene_break ] bobbie : unbelievable . wait until lulu hears . carly : mom , you 're not helping . nina : nelle , as of now , you are charlotte 's nanny . okay ? but that 's provisionally . one slipup , one lie , and you are fired . do you understand ? nelle : yes . yes . thank you . nina : okay . so , your first assignment is to take charlotte for some hot chocolate . then you 'll meet my husband , of course . um , here . let 's go . you want to get some hot chocolate ? charlotte : and a cookie ? nina : and a cookie , yeah , su -- well , you just had a cookie . you had -- okay , you can have another cookie . just one . here 's some money . here 's a card . just take it all . nelle : we got it . we got it . we got it all . nina : okay . thank you . have so much fun . nelle : okay , let 's go , charlotte . let 's get out of here . bobbie : if you did that to spite me , the joke is on you . because when that tramp winds up in bed with your husband , you will only have yourself to blame . carly : you lost your temper . i 've been known to do that myself a few times . it does n't make for the best decisions . nina : i did not hire nelle to spite your mother . i hired her because she has the appropriate background and because charlotte loves her . and also , because i believe , given the chance , people can change . it happened to me . i have a feeling it happened to you , too , carly . carly : oh , yeah , it did . mm - hmm . i made quite a few mistakes early on . and i was able to rebuild my life because someone gave me the benefit of the doubt -- absolutely . nina : why do n't we give nelle the same opportunity ? carly : maybe you 're right . or maybe nelle is going to use your kindness as an opening and betray you like she did me . do yourself a favor , nina -- watch your back .

[ scene_break ] bianca : kendall , i meant it . there 's no in between . you 're either with j.r. or you 're with me . kendall : why do things have to be so black and white with you , bianca ? bianca : because where bess is concerned , there 's no room for gray . if you 're on j.r. 's side , you ca n't possibly be there to support me and what i need to do . kendall : wait . hold on a second . no one has supported you more than i have . you 're my sister , and i love you . bianca : well , then stand by me . kendall : i do n't have to agree with everything you do . if i see you 're about to get hit by a train , i 'm going to push you out of the way . and when i hear that babe is involved , all the bells and whistles start going off , and i know that someone is going to get flattened , and i 'm not about to let it be you . bianca : all right , all right . that 's it , kendall . i want you to leave . now .

how long has it been ? how many days ? do you think long enough for the buchanans to forget about their stolen child ? do n't kid yourselves . we 're talking about very powerful people here . they have money , everything it takes to dig and dig until they hit pay dirt . and when they do , the whole world , not just j.r. , is going to know who took that boy . and when that happens , what do you think the buchanans are going to do ? jamie : there are a million ways for people to disappear . tad : and a million ways for people to get caught , especially with a federal kidnapping charge hanging over your heads . answer the question -- what do you think buchanan 's going to do when they finally nab you two , huh ? you think he 's just going to say , `` here you go , i understand . here 's a little something for your trouble `` ? babe : look , we 'll just have to prove to them that james is mine . they do n't even have a right to him . tad : by then it 'll be way too late . would you explain to her how the real world works ? jamie : my father wants us to turn ourselves in . tad : no , no , i want you to -- i just want you to grab the last possible chance you have of living a normal life . takes james home , fight it out in court , explain what cramer did to you , that he was stolen from you without your consent , that you did what you did out of desperation . i 'm sure livia can work something out for you . babe : like , what ? what , 15 to life ? tad : babe , there is not a judge in the world that would n't take your story into account . i 'm sure that the most you would end up with is probation , and if you keep going the way you are , probation wo n't be an option . you 'll end up in prison , and we 're not talking about designer jump suits here or macramé classes . jamie : say we do what you want . babe : jamie . jamie : i 'm -- i 'm just asking . now , if he 's right and we work this and get all the breaks , then what ? you ca n't expect us to go back to the way things were -- i mean , me at pvu , babe in san diego . babe : j.r. raising my baby -- tad : look -- babe : no way . tad : you just have to -- you cross that bridge when you come to it . look , in the meantime , i do n't care how much denial you 're in , ok ? the police will look for you , and they do n't know that james is your son , ok ? all they know is the lieutenant governor 's kid was stolen . when they find you , when they see you and draw their weapons , all they 're going to see is criminals . if you make the wrong move , you 'll be lucky if you get to serve any prison time . and by the way , you ca n't shut j.r. out . jamie : is this the part where i 'm supposed to get misty eyed ? tad : the fact is there 's more than one side to this fight . you lied to j.r. , did n't you ? more than once . you let him fall in love with a little girl that was n't his , and now you want to just rip her out of his arms and leave them empty ? babe : i 'm not just going to hand over my son . tad : i do n't expect you to . i 'll do everything i can to make sure that you end up with custody , but you ca n't keep him from knowing about james . jamie : you have a short memory , dad . i mean , have you ever called adam up and told him it was a mistake that you and dixie kidnapped j.r. ? you do n't even feel a little sorry for that . and how about an apology for helping liza and colby get away from him ? you having second thoughts about that now ? tad : that is different . j.r. is your brother . jamie : he 's adam 's son . tad : he 's dixie 's son . you ca n't compare the situations . jamie : because you say so ? tad : look , what happened between dixie and adam was just a custody battle between two parents . nobody let adam believe that j.r. was dead . jamie : dad , i know you want to make things right with dixie . tad : this is n't about dixie . it 's about you and babe and her son with j.r . jamie : no , it 's too late for him , dad . ok ? i mean , i know it hurts a lot , and i am sorry , but j.r. is lost . tad : but you 're not -- not yet . i do n't care what j.r. is going through . i do n't want you going down the same road . babe : oh , come on . jamie 's absolutely nothing like j.r . tad : if you go through with this , you 're every bit as wrong as he is .

[ scene_break ] jack : oh , look at this . erica : what ? jack : it 's hayward 's prescription pad . it 's in triplicate . if he did write greenlee a prescription , the copy would be in here . erica : nothing ? jack : nothing . erica : well , i mean , he still could have slipped her something under the table . it would n't be the first time , god knows . jack : no , i would n't put it past him , but how do we prove it ? erica : well , we still have all these vials , these concoctions we can have tested . what ? what ? what 's the matter ? jack : i 'm just afraid we might be barking up the wrong tree . i mean , maybe it 's greenlee 's condition that made her take those pills . maybe she 's simply having a mental breakdown . would n't that be something ? i finally find my daughter and then to lose her to this -- erica : no , do n't even think that . jack : greenlee and i have come a long way . you know we can actually disagree now ? you know , we can have an argument and know it 's going to be ok tomorrow , like you do with family . but maybe now it 's not going to be ok tomorrow . erica : will you listen to yourself , jackson ? have you forgotten who you 're talking about ? this is greenlee we 're talking about . of course she 's going to come back tomorrow . i 'd bet my life on it . [ scene_break ] zach : i 'm sorry about your wife , but it had nothing to do with me . ryan : why do n't you try that once more with a little bit of feeling ? zach : what would i gain by hurting her ? ethan : try this on . see , if ryan 's distracted by his wife 's illness , it makes cambias industries awfully vulnerable . zach : no , yeah , yeah . but if i wanted to take cambias , i 'd just do it , money and all . i would n't have to hurt anyone . right ? so why do n't you go interrogate someone who 's close enough to your wife to pump her full of drugs , or whatever it is . i have n't seen her in weeks . ryan : yeah . well , you do n't like to get dirty . you could have hired someone to roll around in the mud for you . zach : you 're wrong about me . i do n't mind getting dirty at all . but the only reason i 'm on your list is because i 'm a cambias . ryan : you know , i do n't have time to argue . but if you did this to greenlee , i 'll find out . ethan : you , too . get out . zach : no . i told you about kendall . i warned you about her . how much more proof do you need ?

it 's my call , and he 's going to do exactly what he did with bess . he 's going to use this little boy as a weapon . tad : but only if you force him to . that does n't change the fact that the boy is his . babe : james is mine . tad : mother and father , babe -- equal protection under the law no matter how hard you try to wish it away . and somehow , j.r. is going to find out . i mean , the truth always has a way of surfacing . babe : and by then we 're going to be so far down the road that no one 's going to even be able to find us . tad : well , that 's a hell of a way to live a life , let alone raise a little boy . jamie : well , it 's worked for us so far . tad : really ? how long has it been ? how many days ? do you think long enough for the buchanans to forget about their stolen child ? do n't kid yourselves . we 're talking about very powerful people here . they have money , everything it takes to dig and dig until they hit pay dirt . and when they do , the whole world , not just j.r. , is going to know who took that boy . and when that happens , what do you think the buchanans are going to do ? jamie : there are a million ways for people to disappear . tad : and a million ways for people to get caught , especially with a federal kidnapping charge hanging over your heads . answer the question -- what do you think buchanan 's going to do when they finally nab you two , huh ? you think he 's just going to say , `` here you go , i understand . here 's a little something for your trouble `` ? babe : look , we 'll just have to prove to them that james is mine . they do n't even have a right to him . tad : by then it 'll be way too late . would you explain to her how the real world works ? jamie : my father wants us to turn ourselves in . tad : no , no , i want you to -- i just want you to grab the last possible chance you have of living a normal life . takes james home , fight it out in court , explain what cramer did to you , that he was stolen from you without your consent , that you did what you did out of desperation . i 'm sure livia can work something out for you . babe : like , what ? what , 15 to life ? tad : babe , there is not a judge in the world that would n't take your story into account . i 'm sure that the most you would end up with is probation , and if you keep going the way you are , probation wo n't be an option . you 'll end up in prison , and we 're not talking about designer jump suits here or macramé classes . jamie : say we do what you want . babe : jamie . jamie : i 'm -- i 'm just asking . now , if he 's right and we work this and get all the breaks , then what ? you ca n't expect us to go back to the way things were -- i mean , me at pvu , babe in san diego . babe : j.r. raising my baby -- tad : look -- babe : no way . tad : you just have to -- you cross that bridge when you come to it . look , in the meantime , i do n't care how much denial you 're in , ok ? the police will look for you , and they do n't know that james is your son , ok ? all they know is the lieutenant governor 's kid was stolen . when they find you , when they see you and draw their weapons , all they 're going to see is criminals . if you make the wrong move , you 'll be lucky if you get to serve any prison time . and by the way , you ca n't shut j.r. out . jamie : is this the part where i 'm supposed to get misty eyed ? tad : the fact is there 's more than one side to this fight . you lied to j.r. , did n't you ? more than once . you let him fall in love with a little girl that was n't his , and now you want to just rip her out of his arms and leave them empty ? babe : i 'm not just going to hand over my son . tad : i do n't expect you to . i 'll do everything i can to make sure that you end up with custody , but you ca n't keep him from knowing about james . jamie : you have a short memory , dad . i mean , have you ever called adam up and told him it was a mistake that you and dixie kidnapped j.r. ? you do n't even feel a little sorry for that . and how about an apology for helping liza and colby get away from him ? you having second thoughts about that now ? tad : that is different . j.r. is your brother . jamie : he 's adam 's son . tad : he 's dixie 's son . you ca n't compare the situations . jamie : because you say so ? tad : look , what happened between dixie and adam was just a custody battle between two parents . nobody let adam believe that j.r. was dead . jamie : dad , i know you want to make things right with dixie . tad : this is n't about dixie . it 's about you and babe and her son with j.r . jamie : no , it 's too late for him , dad . ok ? i mean , i know it hurts a lot , and i am sorry , but j.r. is lost . tad : but you 're not -- not yet . i do n't care what j.r. is going through . i do n't want you going down the same road . babe : oh , come on . jamie 's absolutely nothing like j.r . tad : if you go through with this , you 're every bit as wrong as he is . [ scene_break ] krystal : if you know where babe is , i 'd appreciate it if you 'd fill us in . j.r. : right . i 'm supposed to believe that you guys traveled across five states on the off chance she showed up ? david : we have reason to believe that babe heard about the concert and decided to come . j.r. : mm - hmm . because she could n't bear to miss my song ? krystal : because she would want to see her baby . j.r. : how about we be real here for a second ? i 'm not an idiot . there 's more . what 's going on ? because you guys are trespassing . would you like me to call security ? david : all right . we think babe came here to kidnap bess , and we came to stop her .

[ scene_break ] zach : greenlee in some kind of trouble ? ethan : yeah . ryan 's convinced somebody might be trying to slip her some kind of antipsychotic drug . i think he might be on to something . zach : hmm . based on what ? ryan : based on the fact that there were dangerous amounts of it found in her blood . ethan : what do you know about it , zach ? zach : not a thing . ethan : really ? it 's amazing . you know , it 's amazing how much goes on in this town that you pretend to be in the dark about , like the fact that i was n't your son . you see , that blows your credibility . zach : why would i want to hurt greenlee ? ethan : same reason you shot ryan in the gut . what do you got to say for yourself ? ryan : i 'd like to hear the answer to that . [ scene_break ] j.r. : you would never help me keep bess from babe . david : you got that right . i want you to have custody of bess as much as i want a lethal injection . j.r. : now , there 's an idea . david : and your only chance of keeping that child is if babe acts like a hothead and takes her from you . krystal : which is why we want to stop her . david : we both want our daughter home where she belongs , where she can fight you in court and beat you into the ground . j.r. : in your dreams . i do n't care what i have to do or how much it costs . babe will never , never have bess .

[ scene_break ] edmund : what are you doing ? maria : manny got held up , so i decided to take his shift . edmund : i see . and your experience as a neurosurgeon somehow qualifies you to be my physical therapist ? maria : yes , because if you 'll remember , i put myself through med school as a pt . i might be a little bit rusty , but at least i 'll be here in the loop . edmund : loop ? what loop ? what loop ? maria : the loop on your progress so i can see it for myself , so that you ca n't hide it from me . edmund : how do i get this through your head ? my recovery or lack of same is no longer your business . you 're not my therapist . maria : edmund , you forget that i 'm used to this . i 'm used to patients doing this to me -- giving me a hard time . edmund : maria , i told you to go back to zach . maria : no , actually , what you told me was that i had a choice . i had a choice between zach and going to hell , and i sort of decided that neither one works for me , because -- because this is a two - way street , and i actually have a say in my life , and what i 'm saying is i 'm not budging . you 're stuck with me .

[ scene_break ] zach : i 'm sorry about your wife , but it had nothing to do with me . ryan : why do n't you try that once more with a little bit of feeling ? zach : what would i gain by hurting her ? ethan : try this on . see , if ryan 's distracted by his wife 's illness , it makes cambias industries awfully vulnerable . zach : no , yeah , yeah . but if i wanted to take cambias , i 'd just do it , money and all . i would n't have to hurt anyone . right ? so why do n't you go interrogate someone who 's close enough to your wife to pump her full of drugs , or whatever it is . i have n't seen her in weeks . ryan : yeah . well , you do n't like to get dirty . you could have hired someone to roll around in the mud for you . zach : you 're wrong about me . i do n't mind getting dirty at all . but the only reason i 'm on your list is because i 'm a cambias . ryan : you know , i do n't have time to argue . but if you did this to greenlee , i 'll find out . ethan : you , too . get out . zach : no . i told you about kendall . i warned you about her . how much more proof do you need ?

[ sighs ] i was , um ... i was just stressed about the lawsuit , if juliet 's dropping it , everything , i guess . cane : it 's okay . i know this is hard on you , and , uh ... you know , i 'm glad you have a shoulder to lean on . lily : yeah . cane : [ sighs ] you 're lucky to have such a good friend . jack : try , mother . try to put it into words , what you feel for graham . dina : do n't pressure me , jack . jack : do you have any idea how hurtful it is to hear you talk about this man as if he 's in the same category as your family ? dina : you know , i thought my family would n't give me the time of day . it 's so hard for me to accept your generosity . jack : why ? dina : because i 'm afraid of letting you down again . ashley : so , why would you think that i would n't be interested in your story ? do i really seem that self - involved to you ? graham : mm . you seem absolutely charming . ashley : `` charming . `` graham : yes . [ chuckles ] i supposed i 've just come to terms with you and jack tolerating my presence . i did n't think you 'd care to delve any further . ashley : that 's actually reasonable , considering that i do n't even know your last name , graham . graham : oh . it 's bloodworth . ashley : well , mr. graham bloodworth , i think we 've made enough wrong assumptions about each other . what do you say about starting over ? victoria : you know , i 've been giving a lot of thought to the negative publicity that brash & sassy will have to endure , whether or not we beat this thing . michael : i 'm right there with you . maybe even a step ahead . i got , uh , leslie to agree to a protective order . victoria : what does that do ? michael : it seals all of the depositions . they wo n't be part of the public record , and they will be off - limits to the press and anybody else . victoria : that 's good news . michael : they 'll be conducted in private in my office . victoria : i still do n't understand why leslie would agree to something like this . michael : oh , well , one would assume that it is not in juliet 's best interest to be branded a liar in the public record . victoria : that 's true . that could put a damper on any future career plans she may have . all right . so , you said you wanted to go over my testimony for the deposition . michael : yes . there are three key points . first , while she was working at brash & sassy , juliet never reported being sexually harassed ? victoria : never . michael : second , she was fired for cause ? victoria : yes . michael : and finally , the decision to terminate her employment was yours entirely . cane had nothing to do with it . victoria : true . michael : then you 'll be fine . just remember , leslie 's the one who 's gon na be asking the questions , and her goal will be to trip you up , get you to contradict yourself , and if possible elicit some strong emotional reaction that she can dissect and use against you later . victoria : all right , well , if i have to keep my emotions out of this , then that 's exactly what i 'm gon na do . billy : victoria 's the mother of my children . i 'm always gon na be concerned about her well - being . phyllis : believe me , i get it . billy : and that includes the times where stress takes a toll . [ clears throat ] look , it 's not because she tells me about these things , it 's not because she complains about them . it 's because i know her , okay ? i know how to read the signs . it 's the same thing with you and jack , right ? phyllis : in what way ? billy : in the way that you still want what 's best for him even though you 're not together with him . phyllis : well , i suppose . and i know it 's different because jack and i do n't have kids to consider . look , it just seems that victoria is ... i do n't know , occupying a lot of your time and attention lately . billy : hey . i 'm with you . that 's why i moved in here , so i could be as close to you as possible . [ phyllis chuckles ] billy : 'cause you 're the only woman that i want . phyllis : i 'm not questioning that commitment . it 's just -- it 's really more of an observation . look , i know that victoria is used to depending on you , and you 're used to taking care of her . that 's all . billy : well , that will change . i mean , you 'll see a difference in me once this lawsuit is figured out and everything goes back to normal . i ca n't help but feel a little bit responsible about what happened in los angeles , and now victoria is , you know , left to deal with the backlash of it . if none of that happened , juliet would still be working at brash & sassy , and this lawsuit , it would n't even be a thing . phyllis : that 's not on you . billy : but it does take time away from the kids . and i 'm , you know , packing up and shacking up with my new roommate . phyllis : and she would never want you to spend time away from the kids , especially if you 're feeling like you need a little extra dad time . like tonight . i mean , you know , if you want , go over there . surprise them . billy : yeah ? phyllis : yeah . [ laughs ] yeah , have dinner with them . convince them that vegetables taste good . billy : [ laughs ] phyllis : [ chuckles ] do it . billy : did i tell you how great you are today ? phyllis : no , i do n't think so . not yet . billy : you are great . lily : thank you for stopping by . jordan : yeah , sure . lily : so , is it official ? is juliet dropping the lawsuit ? cane : no . no , she 's going ahead with it . lily : what ? ! but you seemed so sure ! cane : i 'm sorry . lily : so what happens now ? cane : [ sighs ] well , michael , uh , has to depose , you know , juliet and me , and he says that he can hopefully make her crack under questioning , and she 'll admit that she 's fabricated the whole thing . lily : and then she 'd have to drop the case . i hope he rips her lies apart . cane : yeah , me too . lily : another reason i was upset is because hilary 's planning on doing a story about this . hey , hang on . wait , wait . you are kidding , right ? lily : no . [ scoffs ] i went over and i confronted her . cane : and what 'd she say ? lily : she did n't deny it . but jordan was there , and he could n't believe that she would stoop that low . that 's why he came by , to tell me that he tried to talk her out of it . cane : yeah , well , that 's trying to tell a buzzard not to eat roadkill , is n't it ? lily : you know she 's not just using her show as a platform for juliet 's claims , right ? cane : no , she wants to destroy us . lily : and she 's gon na enjoy every minute of it . jack : mother , why would you think that you let us down ? dina : you do n't know me , jack . it 's been too many years . jack : we want to . we all do . ashley wants to . that 's why i invited you to move back into our home . dina : your home , not mine . jack : it is the abbott family home , and you still have a place there . i do n't think you realize how little dad changed that house after you left . dina : [ laughs ] oh , what do you mean ? of course he changed it . it was years ago . jack : no , no , no , no . it was a long time before he ever re - decorated one room in that house . i know ... he was holding out hope that maybe you 'd walk through that front door . i guess we all were . dad wanted things the same . so that if you came back ... it would be like you never left . dina : [ gulps ] jack : and it could 've been . dad would 've forgiven you anything . the same for me . [ knock on door ] gloria : excuse me . jack , do n't forget your meeting with the fenmore 's ad- buyers . jack : uh ... gloria : conference room . two minutes . jack : thank you , gloria . um ... stay . [ stammers ] just relax . if you need anything at all , ask gloria , all right ? i 'll be back . dina : [ sighs ] gloria : well , how very thoughtful of you to stop by and bid jack adieu . dina : well , as a matter of fact , i 'll be staying in genoa city a bit longer . did n't jack tell you ? gloria : no . ashley : how did you end up in paris ? graham : well , like any other bored college student , i could n't wait to travel . so when i finished school , that 's what i did . i fell in love with the city of lights , so i stayed . ashley : and you have a background in business ? graham : i 've had a great deal of experience in business , yes . and as an entrepreneur , i know the difficulties of running your own company . i never actually wanted the corporate life until i met dina . ashley : and then the two of you just kind of clicked ? graham : [ chuckles ] something like that , yes . she needed someone with my skill set , and i needed a mentor , so it 's been a successful partnership for both of us . ashley : so ... there you were , an american in paris . graham : [ laughs ] originally a midwesterner , just like you . ashley : oh , really ? graham : mm - hmm . ashley : specifically from ... ? graham : a small town where good , wholesome values are preached . ashley : but not always practiced . graham : [ laughs ] of course not . honor , loyalty , family . i believed all of it . ashley : yeah , it 's a lovely vision . until you have to live it every day . graham : believe me , i know all too well how complicated family dynamics can get . and i 'm in no position to judge . ashley : why do you say that ? hilary : hey . i missed you . i 'm glad you came back . jordan : i was just at lily 's . hilary : oh . jordan : yeah . she 's going through hell because of this lawsuit . hilary : i realize that , okay ? jordan : and the thought of you turning this into scandal headlines about her marriage ... she 's a wreck , hilary . hilary : i was sitting here , okay , and i was rehearsing what i was gon na say to you if you gave me a chance . jordan : yeah , i bet you were . hilary : i did n't create the situation , okay ? i 'm just reporting on it like any other reporter would , because it happens to be my job . but saying it out loud like that , yeah , it ... i hear how false it is . there 's no way to separate history from facts with lily . it was influencing my decisions , and it was turning any kind of story into a personal vendetta . but , fortunately , nothing is prepared on the story , so no harm done . jordan : so ... what ? you 're dropping it ? hilary : yeah . i 'm stepping back . i 'm stepping back from any involvement in this lawsuit . in fact , juliet asked me to be a witness at her deposition , and i said no . jordan : wait . juliet called you as a witness ? you do n't work for brash & sassy . how would you know what did or did n't happen between cane and juliet ? unless your involvement in this is way deeper than what you 've told anyone . baa baa black sheep , dina : why do n't we get together sometime and have lunch ? gloria : you and me ? dina : absolutely . gloria : heh ... dina : we 've got a lot in common , you know . gloria : mm . dina : we 're both ex - wives of john , and care deeply for jack . gloria : actually , i am john 's widow . dina : hm . gloria : as for jack , i work for him . executive assistant . dina : oh , come on , gloria . i know you 're sleeping with him . gloria : [ exclaims ] excuse me , i beg your pardon , but that is a huge mistake . i mean , we are not -- i mean , we have not ever -- dina : oh , just relax , honey . do n't get your knickers all in a hissy fit . gloria : i am just not comfortable having this conversation right now . dina : well , all the more reason why we should have lunch . i 'm just trying to understand my son . and what makes him happy these days . gloria : well , if and when you figure that out , would you please tell me ? dina : oh , i certainly will . lily : look , my main concern right now is the impact this is gon na have on mattie and charlie . you know , as far as i know , they do n't know anything , but they need to hear this from us . cane : i do n't want to dump this on them at all , so ... i do n't know . maybe we just do n't tell them until we have to . lily : no , cane , it 's too risky . they -- they could hear it from somebody else . what if my dad or devon makes some offhand remark , and they start asking questions ? it 's just too hard to keep things under wraps these days . listen , we have to be on the same page about this . cane : you 're right . they should hear it from us . i 'm just ... i 'm just sickened that they 're gon na think that i 'm the kind of man that could do this . victoria : [ sighs ] i want you to be honest with me , michael . what 's the worst- case scenario ? michael : juliet insists that we take this to court , and we have to do it all over again . then it 's in the hands of the judge or the jury . victoria : i just hate the thought of this dragging on day after day , with juliet and leslie inflicting as much damage as they can . [ sighs ] michael : you have to remember , juliet 's the one who stands to really get hurt here . you fired her for cause . you treated her very fairly . better than most employers under the circumstances . you even offered to give her a good reference . if she pursues this , she could incinerate any chance she has of getting another job in your industry , and many others . victoria : why ca n't she see that ? michael : i have handled dozens of cases with ... ambiguities that could have gone either way . this is n't one of them . victoria : you 're not just saying that , right ? michael : as your attorney and your friend , we have the facts , and they 're on our side . jordan : you might as well tell me what it is that juliet wanted you to reveal under oath . hilary : it was n't like that . she just -- she wanted me to be a character witness , that 's it . but i realized that there was a conflict of interest , and that 's why i stepped back . you were right to call me out . okay ? it was a reality check , and ... i need those sometimes . more than i like to admit . okay ? i 'm trying to be better . i want to ... i want to just let go of old grudges and petty resentments . but i do , i ... i slip up . well , you know , the best thing about you is that you -- you challenge me . so i need you to help me stay on this path . i want to be a woman that you can be proud of . okay ? jordan : you know who you should be proud of ? whoever taught you how to act . because you 're right up there with viola davis and meryl streep . and the only thing that you regret about your plan to trash lily and cane is that i caught wind of it . good luck on your new path , hilary . you 'll need it . michael : mwah ! it 's lovely to see you , as always , but unfortunately lauren is at fenmore 's . phyllis : oh , that 's no problem . i actually came to see you . michael : hmm . could this perhaps be regarding the case , the one in which i am bound to secrecy due to attorney - client privilege ? phyllis : i am not looking for anything private , okay ? i just need to know how long it 's gon na take , that 's all . just , you know , best guess . michael : [ chuckles ] may i ask why this is of interest to you ? phyllis : well , i know that i could be sounding pretty selfish right now , considering how serious those charges are that you 're dealing with , but i got a feeling that victoria might be using this lawsuit to keep billy as close as she can . michael : uh - huh . go on . phyllis : well , you know ... she 's not dumb . she 's certainly not the histrionic type , but ... i do n't know . it 's more subtle , you know ? it 's like she 's putting on this vulnerable act around billy , just enough so that he thinks she 's on the edge of a nervous collapse . michael : i have not observed that . but i have to admit , the recent meetings have been focused on juliet and the charges . phyllis : yeah , well , billy blames himself for that entire mess . if it was n't for that stupid hockey - player footage airing , you know , this lawsuit , i do n't think , would even be happening . michael : agreed . phyllis : victoria knows how billy feels , and i think that she is willing to exploit those feelings . then , of course , there 's the co - parenting thing . and , quite frankly , i think she wants me out , because she wants to be in . michael : i always tell you the truth . that 's why you 're here . so i have to tell you , the pressure victoria 's under is quite real . phyllis : she can handle it . she 's neither weak nor helpless . and these days , she 's more like victor than victor . billy : hey . victoria : hi . i thought you were working from home ? billy : i thought you 'd still be at the office . i just wanted to come and see johnny and katie . are they upstairs ? victoria : actually , mom took them this afternoon . pony rides with cousin faith , so ... billy : surprise dinner with dad does n't really compete with that . victoria : well , she 's bringing them back before dinner . you 're welcome to join us if you like . jack : sorry , mother . that took longer than i thought it -- gloria : she went back to the club . jack : well , she was never great about sticking around . you 'd think i 'd remember that after how many years ? gloria : are you okay ? i mean really okay ? jack : i 'm fine . i 'm just beginning to wonder why i spend so much time worrying about my mother . gloria : and her `` companion `` ? jack : you know what , whatever graham is or is n't , maybe i should just leave it alone . she seems happy . gloria : yeah , she does . but looks can be deceiving , especially where personal relationships are involved . jack : ever since she got to town , i have been living in the past -- rehashing mistakes , hers and mine , and all the drama that goes with them . you know , it has n't done me one bit of good . maybe i should have just let things alone and let her go back to paris like she planned . gloria : mm - hmm . i do n't think you mean that , jack . i think you 've spent many years wishing she was part of your life , and giving you what a mother is supposed to give . love . approval . you never grow out of that stuff , jack . jack : i probably just spent most of my life thinking i would one day have those things . i never in my wildest dreams thought i 'd be competing for them with the likes of graham . gloria : oh . you 're jealous . because he has more of her than you do . oh , god . jack : did she say anything before she left ? gloria : yes , she did . she said quite a bit . she thinks we 're a thing . jack : i hope you cleared up that misconception . gloria : [ sighs ] yeah , well , i guess that straightens that out , huh ? whatever we had is over , or has been for a long time , and naive gloria just did n't quite catch on . jack : well , we both know how this started . gloria , you got what you wanted . you have a great income , and the right kind of benefits -- medical and dental . gloria : ca n't argue with that . come on , it was fun while it lasted , was n't it ? jack : i 'd like to think of it as a mutually beneficial arrangement . gloria : [ titters ] well , ai n't you romantic . jack : gloria , i thought we agreed you did n't need anything more , that we both did n't need anything more complicated . gloria : it 's true . i just started looking forward to sneaking around with you . thought you did , too . jack : why are we talking about -- gloria : oh , stop it . stop it . stop it , jack . just relax . just relax and forget i ever said anything . it was what it was . we are adults . you 're moving on . hmm . jack : i 'm trying . gloria : mm . you keep that up . i 'm going back to my desk and earn some of those very special benefits you were talking about . graham : my mom and dad , they were n't just madly in love . they were , from all appearances , the perfect couple . i always thought it so strange as a kid , all the jokes i 'd heard in movies and from my parents ' friends about how marriage was really horrible , and husbands and wives could barely tolerate each other 's existence . mine truly enjoyed spending time together . till i saw it all fall apart . to the point where they could barely stand to speak to one another . ashley : that must have been awful for you . graham : heartbreaking . hard to understand . [ sighs ] but you learn to adapt , because life goes on . ashley : i 'm so sorry . graham : well , that 's why i learned not to care about outward appearances . so often they 're wrong . ashley : so , are you still close with your parents ? graham : sadly , no . i wish i had had more time with them . you know , you and your brother and sister are so lucky to have dina back in your lives . she is an amazing human being . i truly hope you can all make the most of it . [ scoffs , laughs ] listen to me . platitudes abound . we should , uh , take off before we both start weeping . graham : dina ! dina : oh ! ashley , dear . what a lovely surprise . ashley : yeah , i was just , uh , getting to know graham a little bit better . and i wanted to thank him for supporting your decision to stay in town a little bit longer . dina : well , you know , he takes the best care of me . ashley : mm . well , it means a lot to me . and especially for abby 's sake . dina : your daughter is a remarkable young woman , and i 'm so very proud of you both . ashley : well , thank you very much . that means a lot . anyway , i 've got to get back to jabot . thank you , graham . graham : pleasure , ashley . ashley : bye . dina : bye , dear . billy : thank you for the dinner invitation . my dad time 's been a little curtailed with everything that 's been going on . victoria : yeah , well , they have n't exactly been getting a lot of mom time , either , ever since the lawsuit smacked us in the face . billy : do you need help in the kitchen with anything , vick ? victoria : no . actually , hannah , super - nanny that she is , prepared everything right before she left . she has been putting in a lot of overtime around here . billy : well , if you need help with anything with johnny and katie , you just say the word . victoria : thanks . [ sighs ] i know you 've been picking up the slack at the office , though , and taking over a lot of juliet 's workload , and doing damage control and all that . billy : okay , let 's just be honest about this . you are the one that 's being put through the wringer . victoria : i 'm okay . i am fully confident that michael is gon na take down juliet . billy : well , i hope you 're right about that . victoria : and i have everything under control . i promise you it 's gon na stay that way . because i am very good at what i do . so you do n't have to worry about me . devon : i got your text . hilary : i did n't think that you would come . devon : i almost did n't . but then i heard about the news feature you plan to run on lily and cane . so much for taking the high road , huh ? hilary : devon , if you could just let me -- devon : what do you actually get out of this feud that you have with my sister ? 'cause i really do n't understand it . you and i are n't together . you have no connection to her whatsoever . hilary : i decided not to run the story , okay ? nothing about cane or lily or the lawsuit . devon : so you 're gon na make a reasonable decision not based on hate and resentment ? that 's a first for you . hilary : you know , i did n't sexually harass juliet . and i did n't fire her . all i did was recommend a lawyer to a woman who came to me and said that she wanted to stand up for herself . jordan does n't believe me . no one else does , either . but it 's the truth , okay ? devon : okay . so that 's what happened today ? jordan 's had it with you , and you decided to shoot me a text to see if i 'd be susceptible ? hilary : well , you 're here , are n't you ? devon : i was . hilary : devon , wait . lily : mattie ! charlie ! charlie : what 's up ? mattie : how long is this going to take ? i really need to get through three more chapters . charlie : yeah , and i got to leave for practice in a few . cane : it 's not gon na be that long , but , um ... sit down for a sec . we need to have a little family meeting . lily : it 's really important . uh , we think that you guys are mature enough to understand what 's going on , and we want you to hear it from us . charlie : okay ... mattie : you both are acting kind of weird . how bad is it ? cane : uh ... it 's , uh -- it 's gon na be fine . it 's just -- just , uh ... it 's just a little complicated , okay ? [ sighs ] there 's a lawsuit that 's been filed against brash & sassy . oh , no . about the products ? is it a patent infringement ? cane : no , baby . it 's a harassment suit . mattie : what do you mean , `` harassment `` ? cane : there 's this woman there , her name is juliet , and , uh , she was my interpreter when i went to japan on business . and , uh ... she 's -- she 's accusing me -- mattie : accusing you ? what does she think you did ? oh , my god . harassment . [ scoffs ] you do n't mean -- lily : listen . listen . this woman , juliet , she got fired from brash & sassy for making a mistake with my commercial . she 's upset , and she made up these terrible lies about your father . cane : yeah . and , uh , she 's just mad now , and she wants more money from the company , and that 's it . mattie : but she 's not just saying the company abused her . she 's saying that you ... did something disgusting . and everyone 's going to find out , right ? cane : i ho -- i hope not , no . lily : this might not even go to court . cane : yeah . lily : you know , this could dropped , and then no one would find out . cane : that 's right . and , see , we just want you guys to be prepared . that 's all this is . lily : yeah . cane : okay ? mattie : okay . um , thanks . i have to go and , um ... you know . homework . charlie : i knew something was going on with you and mom . something you guys were trying to hide . dina : so , what was that all about ? graham : ah , just ashley playing nice , trying to squeeze some information out . dina : regarding ? graham : me . and my `` agenda `` where you 're concerned . dina : oh . well , it seemed to me there was more to it than that . graham : [ scoffs ] you ca n't be serious . ashley 's a beautiful woman , but we were trying to charm each other . dina : mm - hmm . graham : you know my devotion and loyalty are yours . dina : [ yawning ] you know , i 'm really tired . i 'm going to go up to my suite . graham : i 'll come with you . dina : not necessary . stay right where you are . ashley : graham 's last name is bloodworth . born and raised in the midwest . both parents deceased . went to paris after college . never left . jack : nice work . anything else ? ashley : yes . his parents suffered some kind of horrible trauma that has scarred graham deeply . therefore , he suggested that you , traci , and i cherish our time with our mother . jack : oh , this after he did everything he possibly could to keep us away from her ? you did n't buy a word of that , did you ? ashley : he 's very skilled at sounding sincere , let 's put it that way . jack : well , he would have to be , to pull the wool over someone as smart as our mother . ashley : and i asked ravi to do an extensive internet search on one graham bloodworth . jack : i applaud the effort , but i do n't think we have time for a deep dive into every online crevice . no , we need to get this guy out of mother 's life today . ashley : today ? jack : okay , a.s.a.p . but trust me , mr. bloodworth is doing everything he possibly can to get our mother back on that plane and out of this country . we need to get her to turn on him . we need to get her to think differently about him . and by `` we , `` i mean you . ashley : i 'm sorry ? jack : well , you have a connection with him . you 've said as much . you 're gorgeous , you 're smart -- devious when you need to be . ashley : okay , you 're clearly out of your mind , jack . whatever concoction you 've got going on , this grand scheme in your brain , just forget it , okay ? get a grip . please . victoria : i promise you , i am not falling apart any time soon . if you want to worry about somebody ... i nominate phyllis . how about that ? and if you want to make yourself useful , you can go set the table . billy : [ chuckles ] okay . i will get right on that . victoria : okay . hilary : i can be more honest with you than i can with anyone else , because nobody knows me the way that you do . devon : all right . so , what do you want ? hilary : i thought i wanted this show . maybe i was wrong . devon : so , what do you want ? hilary : i do n't know ! okay ? i always ... i felt like you -- you were trying to control me all the time , okay , but maybe -- maybe you were just trying to protect me from my own worst instincts . devon , you were my ... you were my balance . you were my voice of reason . and now i have to be my own conscience , and ... i get to do whatever i want to do . and i do n't have to answer to anyone , and ... and i like that . i do . i just ... [ sighs ] except for times like this . when i do n't know . i do n't have a clue . devon : it 's okay . it 's okay . cane : mate , your mum and i are fine , and there 's nothing going on between us . it 's just the case . [ sighs ] you have an amazing mother . and i could n't get through this without her , okay ? and we have michael baldwin , who is genoa city 's best attorney , handling the lawsuit . so hopefully ... it 's just gon na go away . charlie : yeah . no worries , dad . i mean , i know you would n't do something like this . cane : come here . [ sighs ] charlie : i love you , dad . cane : i love you . it 's gon na be okay . [ next_on ] jack ( to gloria ) : i hate that my mother is being exploited by him . please help me out . michael : leslie . juliet . leslie : i 'm surprised to see so many people here . that 's an intimidation tactic . michael : my clients have every legal right to be present . | jack breaks off his friends with benefits relationship with gloria . she is deeply hurt but does n't let jack see how much she cares about him . ashley and graham have a long talk where she finds out that his last name is bloodworth and that he was traumatized by his parents ' divorce because he thought they had a perfect marriage . then he met dina while he was living in paris and started to work for her . dina arrives at the athletic club dining room and feels jealous because she thinks graham is flirting with ashley . he assures her that he will always be loyal to her and she is the only woman in his life . ashley tells jack everything she found out about graham and that ravi is doing a full internet search on him . jack tells ashley they do n't have time for that and suggests that she flirt with graham so that dina can see that he only goes after women who have money . ashley tells jack to forget about that idea because she wo n't do it . | <s>[INST] phyllis : i know you and cane have had your issues , but you do n't really think he 's guilty , do you ? billy : honestly , i do n't know what to think right now . either way , this lawsuit is enough to cause major damage . brash & sassy was on shaky ground already dealing with the hockey - footage mess - up . and victoria just smoothed everything over with the league . now she 's dealing with this . phyllis : so , she 's taking the lawsuit personally ? billy : yeah . she 's obsessed with winning . i understand that . but i 'm worried about her . it 's a lot , and ... i just do n't want it to take its toll . phyllis : well ... you can make sure that you 're there for her , to cover for her , you know , at work or with the kids . as an employee and co - parent , those are your responsibilities . billy : but ... ? phyllis : but victoria 's emotional well - being , well , that 's not your problem . michael : i just got word from leslie 's office . she has agreed to an expedited discovery . so we will do it tomorrow at my office . victoria : tomorrow ? michael : yes . that 's what we wanted , right ? victoria : [ sighs ] michael : so tell me why you look less than thrilled . victoria : what if leslie agreed to this because she actually does have the evidence that they claim ? michael : sit down . yeah . victoria : [ sighs ] michael : leslie agreed to this because juliet was on the verge of dropping out of the whole thing , and leslie 's ego would hate that . leslie still thinks she can spin this into a victory . victoria : even though juliet is her only witness ? michael : the burden of proof is on them , and they have not been able to produce one shred of evidence . victoria : yeah , i know . it does sound like they have an uphill battle . i just wish i was as confident now as i was going into this . [ door slams ] lily : hi . [ sighs ] i was , um ... i was just stressed about the lawsuit , if juliet 's dropping it , everything , i guess . cane : it 's okay . i know this is hard on you , and , uh ... you know , i 'm glad you have a shoulder to lean on . lily : yeah . cane : [ sighs ] you 're lucky to have such a good friend . jack : try , mother . try to put it into words , what you feel for graham . dina : do n't pressure me , jack . jack : do you have any idea how hurtful it is to hear you talk about this man as if he 's in the same category as your family ? dina : you know , i thought my family would n't give me the time of day . it 's so hard for me to accept your generosity . jack : why ? dina : because i 'm afraid of letting you down again . ashley : so , why would you think that i would n't be interested in your story ? do i really seem that self - involved to you ? graham : mm . you seem absolutely charming . ashley : `` charming . `` graham : yes . [ chuckles ] i supposed i 've just come to terms with you and jack tolerating my presence . i did n't think you 'd care to delve any further . ashley : that 's actually reasonable , considering that i do n't even know your last name , graham . graham : oh . it 's bloodworth . ashley : well , mr. graham bloodworth , i think we 've made enough wrong assumptions about each other . what do you say about starting over ? victoria : you know , i 've been giving a lot of thought to the negative publicity that brash & sassy will have to endure , whether or not we beat this thing . michael : i 'm right there with you . maybe even a step ahead . i got , uh , leslie to agree to a protective order . victoria : what does that do ? michael : it seals all of the depositions . they wo n't be part of the public record , and they will be off - limits to the press and anybody else . victoria : that 's good news . michael : they 'll be conducted in private in my office . victoria : i still do n't understand why leslie would agree to something like this . michael : oh , well , one would assume that it is not in juliet 's best interest to be branded a liar in the public record . victoria : that 's true . that could put a damper on any future career plans she may have . all right . so , you said you wanted to go over my testimony for the deposition . michael : yes . there are three key points . first , while she was working at brash & sassy , juliet never reported being sexually harassed ? victoria : never . michael : second , she was fired for cause ? victoria : yes . michael : and finally , the decision to terminate her employment was yours entirely . cane had nothing to do with it . victoria : true . michael : then you 'll be fine . just remember , leslie 's the one who 's gon na be asking the questions , and her goal will be to trip you up , get you to contradict yourself , and if possible elicit some strong emotional reaction that she can dissect and use against you later . victoria : all right , well , if i have to keep my emotions out of this , then that 's exactly what i 'm gon na do . billy : victoria 's the mother of my children . i 'm always gon na be concerned about her well - being . phyllis : believe me , i get it . billy : and that includes the times where stress takes a toll . [ clears throat ] look , it 's not because she tells me about these things , it 's not because she complains about them . it 's because i know her , okay ? i know how to read the signs . it 's the same thing with you and jack , right ? phyllis : in what way ? billy : in the way that you still want what 's best for him even though you 're not together with him . phyllis : well , i suppose . and i know it 's different because jack and i do n't have kids to consider . look , it just seems that victoria is ... i do n't know , occupying a lot of your time and attention lately . billy : hey . i 'm with you . that 's why i moved in here , so i could be as close to you as possible . [ phyllis chuckles ] billy : 'cause you 're the only woman that i want . phyllis : i 'm not questioning that commitment . it 's just -- it 's really more of an observation . look , i know that victoria is used to depending on you , and you 're used to taking care of her . that 's all . billy : well , that will change . i mean , you 'll see a difference in me once this lawsuit is figured out and everything goes back to normal . i ca n't help but feel a little bit responsible about what happened in los angeles , and now victoria is , you know , left to deal with the backlash of it . if none of that happened , juliet would still be working at brash & sassy , and this lawsuit , it would n't even be a thing . phyllis : that 's not on you . billy : but it does take time away from the kids . and i 'm , you know , packing up and shacking up with my new roommate . phyllis : and she would never want you to spend time away from the kids , especially if you 're feeling like you need a little extra dad time . like tonight . i mean , you know , if you want , go over there . surprise them . billy : yeah ? phyllis : yeah . [ laughs ] yeah , have dinner with them . convince them that vegetables taste good . billy : [ laughs ] phyllis : [ chuckles ] do it . billy : did i tell you how great you are today ? phyllis : no , i do n't think so . not yet . billy : you are great . lily : thank you for stopping by . jordan : yeah , sure . lily : so , is it official ? is juliet dropping the lawsuit ? cane : no . no , she 's going ahead with it . lily : what ? ! but you seemed so sure ! cane : i 'm sorry . lily : so what happens now ? cane : [ sighs ] well , michael , uh , has to depose , you know , juliet and me , and he says that he can hopefully make her crack under questioning , and she 'll admit that she 's fabricated the whole thing . lily : and then she 'd have to drop the case . i hope he rips her lies apart . cane : yeah , me too . lily : another reason i was upset is because hilary 's planning on doing a story about this . hey , hang on . wait , wait . you are kidding , right ? lily : no . [ scoffs ] i went over and i confronted her . cane : and what 'd she say ? lily : she did n't deny it . but jordan was there , and he could n't believe that she would stoop that low . that 's why he came by , to tell me that he tried to talk her out of it . cane : yeah , well , that 's trying to tell a buzzard not to eat roadkill , is n't it ? lily : you know she 's not just using her show as a platform for juliet 's claims , right ? cane : no , she wants to destroy us . lily : and she 's gon na enjoy every minute of it . jack : mother , why would you think that you let us down ? dina : you do n't know me , jack . it 's been too many years . jack : we want to . we all do . ashley wants to . that 's why i invited you to move back into our home . dina : your home , not mine . jack : it is the abbott family home , and you still have a place there . i do n't think you realize how little dad changed that house after you left . dina : [ laughs ] oh , what do you mean ? of course he changed it . it was years ago . jack : no , no , no , no . it was a long time before he ever re - decorated one room in that house . i know ... he was holding out hope that maybe you 'd walk through that front door . i guess we all were . dad wanted things the same . so that if you came back ... it would be like you never left . dina : [ gulps ] jack : and it could 've been . dad would 've forgiven you anything . the same for me . [ knock on door ] gloria : excuse me . jack , do n't forget your meeting with the fenmore 's ad- buyers . jack : uh ... gloria : conference room . two minutes . jack : thank you , gloria . um ... stay . [ stammers ] just relax . if you need anything at all , ask gloria , all right ? i 'll be back . dina : [ sighs ] gloria : well , how very thoughtful of you to stop by and bid jack adieu . dina : well , as a matter of fact , i 'll be staying in genoa city a bit longer . did n't jack tell you ? gloria : no . ashley : how did you end up in paris ? graham : well , like any other bored college student , i could n't wait to travel . so when i finished school , that 's what i did . i fell in love with the city of lights , so i stayed . ashley : and you have a background in business ? graham : i 've had a great deal of experience in business , yes . and as an entrepreneur , i know the difficulties of running your own company . i never actually wanted the corporate life until i met dina . ashley : and then the two of you just kind of clicked ? graham : [ chuckles ] something like that , yes . she needed someone with my skill set , and i needed a mentor , so it 's been a successful partnership for both of us . ashley : so ... there you were , an american in paris . graham : [ laughs ] originally a midwesterner , just like you . ashley : oh , really ? graham : mm - hmm . ashley : specifically from ... ? graham : a small town where good , wholesome values are preached . ashley : but not always practiced . graham : [ laughs ] of course not . honor , loyalty , family . i believed all of it . ashley : yeah , it 's a lovely vision . until you have to live it every day . graham : believe me , i know all too well how complicated family dynamics can get . and i 'm in no position to judge . ashley : why do you say that ? hilary : hey . i missed you . i 'm glad you came back . jordan : i was just at lily 's . hilary : oh . jordan : yeah . she 's going through hell because of this lawsuit . hilary : i realize that , okay ? jordan : and the thought of you turning this into scandal headlines about her marriage ... she 's a wreck , hilary . hilary : i was sitting here , okay , and i was rehearsing what i was gon na say to you if you gave me a chance . jordan : yeah , i bet you were . hilary : i did n't create the situation , okay ? i 'm just reporting on it like any other reporter would , because it happens to be my job . but saying it out loud like that , yeah , it ... i hear how false it is . there 's no way to separate history from facts with lily . it was influencing my decisions , and it was turning any kind of story into a personal vendetta . but , fortunately , nothing is prepared on the story , so no harm done . jordan : so ... what ? you 're dropping it ? hilary : yeah . i 'm stepping back . i 'm stepping back from any involvement in this lawsuit . in fact , juliet asked me to be a witness at her deposition , and i said no . jordan : wait . juliet called you as a witness ? you do n't work for brash & sassy . how would you know what did or did n't happen between cane and juliet ? unless your involvement in this is way deeper than what you 've told anyone . baa baa black sheep , dina : why do n't we get together sometime and have lunch ? gloria : you and me ? dina : absolutely . gloria : heh ... dina : we 've got a lot in common , you know . gloria : mm . dina : we 're both ex - wives of john , and care deeply for jack . gloria : actually , i am john 's widow . dina : hm . gloria : as for jack , i work for him . executive assistant . dina : oh , come on , gloria . i know you 're sleeping with him . gloria : [ exclaims ] excuse me , i beg your pardon , but that is a huge mistake . i mean , we are not -- i mean , we have not ever -- dina : oh , just relax , honey . do n't get your knickers all in a hissy fit . gloria : i am just not comfortable having this conversation right now . dina : well , all the more reason why we should have lunch . i 'm just trying to understand my son . and what makes him happy these days . gloria : well , if and when you figure that out , would you please tell me ? dina : oh , i certainly will . lily : look , my main concern right now is the impact this is gon na have on mattie and charlie . you know , as far as i know , they do n't know anything , but they need to hear this from us . cane : i do n't want to dump this on them at all , so ... i do n't know . maybe we just do n't tell them until we have to . lily : no , cane , it 's too risky . they -- they could hear it from somebody else . what if my dad or devon makes some offhand remark , and they start asking questions ? it 's just too hard to keep things under wraps these days . listen , we have to be on the same page about this . cane : you 're right . they should hear it from us . i 'm just ... i 'm just sickened that they 're gon na think that i 'm the kind of man that could do this . victoria : [ sighs ] i want you to be honest with me , michael . what 's the worst- case scenario ? michael : juliet insists that we take this to court , and we have to do it all over again . then it 's in the hands of the judge or the jury . victoria : i just hate the thought of this dragging on day after day , with juliet and leslie inflicting as much damage as they can . [ sighs ] michael : you have to remember , juliet 's the one who stands to really get hurt here . you fired her for cause . you treated her very fairly . better than most employers under the circumstances . you even offered to give her a good reference . if she pursues this , she could incinerate any chance she has of getting another job in your industry , and many others . victoria : why ca n't she see that ? michael : i have handled dozens of cases with ... ambiguities that could have gone either way . this is n't one of them . victoria : you 're not just saying that , right ? michael : as your attorney and your friend , we have the facts , and they 're on our side . jordan : you might as well tell me what it is that juliet wanted you to reveal under oath . hilary : it was n't like that . she just -- she wanted me to be a character witness , that 's it . but i realized that there was a conflict of interest , and that 's why i stepped back . you were right to call me out . okay ? it was a reality check , and ... i need those sometimes . more than i like to admit . okay ? i 'm trying to be better . i want to ... i want to just let go of old grudges and petty resentments . but i do , i ... i slip up . well , you know , the best thing about you is that you -- you challenge me . so i need you to help me stay on this path . i want to be a woman that you can be proud of . okay ? jordan : you know who you should be proud of ? whoever taught you how to act . because you 're right up there with viola davis and meryl streep . and the only thing that you regret about your plan to trash lily and cane is that i caught wind of it . good luck on your new path , hilary . you 'll need it . michael : mwah ! it 's lovely to see you , as always , but unfortunately lauren is at fenmore 's . phyllis : oh , that 's no problem . i actually came to see you . michael : hmm . could this perhaps be regarding the case , the one in which i am bound to secrecy due to attorney - client privilege ? phyllis : i am not looking for anything private , okay ? i just need to know how long it 's gon na take , that 's all . just , you know , best guess . michael : [ chuckles ] may i ask why this is of interest to you ? phyllis : well , i know that i could be sounding pretty selfish right now , considering how serious those charges are that you 're dealing with , but i got a feeling that victoria might be using this lawsuit to keep billy as close as she can . michael : uh - huh . go on . phyllis : well , you know ... she 's not dumb . she 's certainly not the histrionic type , but ... i do n't know . it 's more subtle , you know ? it 's like she 's putting on this vulnerable act around billy , just enough so that he thinks she 's on the edge of a nervous collapse . michael : i have not observed that . but i have to admit , the recent meetings have been focused on juliet and the charges . phyllis : yeah , well , billy blames himself for that entire mess . if it was n't for that stupid hockey - player footage airing , you know , this lawsuit , i do n't think , would even be happening . michael : agreed . phyllis : victoria knows how billy feels , and i think that she is willing to exploit those feelings . then , of course , there 's the co - parenting thing . and , quite frankly , i think she wants me out , because she wants to be in . michael : i always tell you the truth . that 's why you 're here . so i have to tell you , the pressure victoria 's under is quite real . phyllis : she can handle it . she 's neither weak nor helpless . and these days , she 's more like victor than victor . billy : hey . victoria : hi . i thought you were working from home ? billy : i thought you 'd still be at the office . i just wanted to come and see johnny and katie . are they upstairs ? victoria : actually , mom took them this afternoon . pony rides with cousin faith , so ... billy : surprise dinner with dad does n't really compete with that . victoria : well , she 's bringing them back before dinner . you 're welcome to join us if you like . jack : sorry , mother . that took longer than i thought it -- gloria : she went back to the club . jack : well , she was never great about sticking around . you 'd think i 'd remember that after how many years ? gloria : are you okay ? i mean really okay ? jack : i 'm fine . i 'm just beginning to wonder why i spend so much time worrying about my mother . gloria : and her `` companion `` ? jack : you know what , whatever graham is or is n't , maybe i should just leave it alone . she seems happy . gloria : yeah , she does . but looks can be deceiving , especially where personal relationships are involved . jack : ever since she got to town , i have been living in the past -- rehashing mistakes , hers and mine , and all the drama that goes with them . you know , it has n't done me one bit of good . maybe i should have just let things alone and let her go back to paris like she planned . gloria : mm - hmm . i do n't think you mean that , jack . i think you 've spent many years wishing she was part of your life , and giving you what a mother is supposed to give . love . approval . you never grow out of that stuff , jack . jack : i probably just spent most of my life thinking i would one day have those things . i never in my wildest dreams thought i 'd be competing for them with the likes of graham . gloria : oh . you 're jealous . because he has more of her than you do . oh , god . jack : did she say anything before she left ? gloria : yes , she did . she said quite a bit . she thinks we 're a thing . jack : i hope you cleared up that misconception . gloria : [ sighs ] yeah , well , i guess that straightens that out , huh ? whatever we had is over , or has been for a long time , and naive gloria just did n't quite catch on . jack : well , we both know how this started . gloria , you got what you wanted . you have a great income , and the right kind of benefits -- medical and dental . gloria : ca n't argue with that . come on , it was fun while it lasted , was n't it ? jack : i 'd like to think of it as a mutually beneficial arrangement . gloria : [ titters ] well , ai n't you romantic . jack : gloria , i thought we agreed you did n't need anything more , that we both did n't need anything more complicated . gloria : it 's true . i just started looking forward to sneaking around with you . thought you did , too . jack : why are we talking about -- gloria : oh , stop it . stop it . stop it , jack . just relax . just relax and forget i ever said anything . it was what it was . we are adults . you 're moving on . hmm . jack : i 'm trying . gloria : mm . you keep that up . i 'm going back to my desk and earn some of those very special benefits you were talking about . graham : my mom and dad , they were n't just madly in love . they were , from all appearances , the perfect couple . i always thought it so strange as a kid , all the jokes i 'd heard in movies and from my parents ' friends about how marriage was really horrible , and husbands and wives could barely tolerate each other 's existence . mine truly enjoyed spending time together . till i saw it all fall apart . to the point where they could barely stand to speak to one another . ashley : that must have been awful for you . graham : heartbreaking . hard to understand . [ sighs ] but you learn to adapt , because life goes on . ashley : i 'm so sorry . graham : well , that 's why i learned not to care about outward appearances . so often they 're wrong . ashley : so , are you still close with your parents ? graham : sadly , no . i wish i had had more time with them . you know , you and your brother and sister are so lucky to have dina back in your lives . she is an amazing human being . i truly hope you can all make the most of it . [ scoffs , laughs ] listen to me . platitudes abound . we should , uh , take off before we both start weeping . graham : dina ! dina : oh ! ashley , dear . what a lovely surprise . ashley : yeah , i was just , uh , getting to know graham a little bit better . and i wanted to thank him for supporting your decision to stay in town a little bit longer . dina : well , you know , he takes the best care of me . ashley : mm . well , it means a lot to me . and especially for abby 's sake . dina : your daughter is a remarkable young woman , and i 'm so very proud of you both . ashley : well , thank you very much . that means a lot . anyway , i 've got to get back to jabot . thank you , graham . graham : pleasure , ashley . ashley : bye . dina : bye , dear . billy : thank you for the dinner invitation . my dad time 's been a little curtailed with everything that 's been going on . victoria : yeah , well , they have n't exactly been getting a lot of mom time , either , ever since the lawsuit smacked us in the face . billy : do you need help in the kitchen with anything , vick ? victoria : no . actually , hannah , super - nanny that she is , prepared everything right before she left . she has been putting in a lot of overtime around here . billy : well , if you need help with anything with johnny and katie , you just say the word . victoria : thanks . [ sighs ] i know you 've been picking up the slack at the office , though , and taking over a lot of juliet 's workload , and doing damage control and all that . billy : okay , let 's just be honest about this . you are the one that 's being put through the wringer . victoria : i 'm okay . i am fully confident that michael is gon na take down juliet . billy : well , i hope you 're right about that . victoria : and i have everything under control . i promise you it 's gon na stay that way . because i am very good at what i do . so you do n't have to worry about me . devon : i got your text . hilary : i did n't think that you would come . devon : i almost did n't . but then i heard about the news feature you plan to run on lily and cane . so much for taking the high road , huh ? hilary : devon , if you could just let me -- devon : what do you actually get out of this feud that you have with my sister ? 'cause i really do n't understand it . you and i are n't together . you have no connection to her whatsoever . hilary : i decided not to run the story , okay ? nothing about cane or lily or the lawsuit . devon : so you 're gon na make a reasonable decision not based on hate and resentment ? that 's a first for you . hilary : you know , i did n't sexually harass juliet . and i did n't fire her . all i did was recommend a lawyer to a woman who came to me and said that she wanted to stand up for herself . jordan does n't believe me . no one else does , either . but it 's the truth , okay ? devon : okay . so that 's what happened today ? jordan 's had it with you , and you decided to shoot me a text to see if i 'd be susceptible ? hilary : well , you 're here , are n't you ? devon : i was . hilary : devon , wait . lily : mattie ! charlie ! charlie : what 's up ? mattie : how long is this going to take ? i really need to get through three more chapters . charlie : yeah , and i got to leave for practice in a few . cane : it 's not gon na be that long , but , um ... sit down for a sec . we need to have a little family meeting . lily : it 's really important . uh , we think that you guys are mature enough to understand what 's going on , and we want you to hear it from us . charlie : okay ... mattie : you both are acting kind of weird . how bad is it ? cane : uh ... it 's , uh -- it 's gon na be fine . it 's just -- just , uh ... it 's just a little complicated , okay ? [ sighs ] there 's a lawsuit that 's been filed against brash & sassy . oh , no . about the products ? is it a patent infringement ? cane : no , baby . it 's a harassment suit . mattie : what do you mean , `` harassment `` ? cane : there 's this woman there , her name is juliet , and , uh , she was my interpreter when i went to japan on business . and , uh ... she 's -- she 's accusing me -- mattie : accusing you ? what does she think you did ? oh , my god . harassment . [ scoffs ] you do n't mean -- lily : listen . listen . this woman , juliet , she got fired from brash & sassy for making a mistake with my commercial . she 's upset , and she made up these terrible lies about your father . cane : yeah . and , uh , she 's just mad now , and she wants more money from the company , and that 's it . mattie : but she 's not just saying the company abused her . she 's saying that you ... did something disgusting . and everyone 's going to find out , right ? cane : i ho -- i hope not , no . lily : this might not even go to court . cane : yeah . lily : you know , this could dropped , and then no one would find out . cane : that 's right . and , see , we just want you guys to be prepared . that 's all this is . lily : yeah . cane : okay ? mattie : okay . um , thanks . i have to go and , um ... you know . homework . charlie : i knew something was going on with you and mom . something you guys were trying to hide . dina : so , what was that all about ? graham : ah , just ashley playing nice , trying to squeeze some information out . dina : regarding ? graham : me . and my `` agenda `` where you 're concerned . dina : oh . well , it seemed to me there was more to it than that . graham : [ scoffs ] you ca n't be serious . ashley 's a beautiful woman , but we were trying to charm each other . dina : mm - hmm . graham : you know my devotion and loyalty are yours . dina : [ yawning ] you know , i 'm really tired . i 'm going to go up to my suite . graham : i 'll come with you . dina : not necessary . stay right where you are . ashley : graham 's last name is bloodworth . born and raised in the midwest . both parents deceased . went to paris after college . never left . jack : nice work . anything else ? ashley : yes . his parents suffered some kind of horrible trauma that has scarred graham deeply . therefore , he suggested that you , traci , and i cherish our time with our mother . jack : oh , this after he did everything he possibly could to keep us away from her ? you did n't buy a word of that , did you ? ashley : he 's very skilled at sounding sincere , let 's put it that way . jack : well , he would have to be , to pull the wool over someone as smart as our mother . ashley : and i asked ravi to do an extensive internet search on one graham bloodworth . jack : i applaud the effort , but i do n't think we have time for a deep dive into every online crevice . no , we need to get this guy out of mother 's life today . ashley : today ? jack : okay , a.s.a.p . but trust me , mr. bloodworth is doing everything he possibly can to get our mother back on that plane and out of this country . we need to get her to turn on him . we need to get her to think differently about him . and by `` we , `` i mean you . ashley : i 'm sorry ? jack : well , you have a connection with him . you 've said as much . you 're gorgeous , you 're smart -- devious when you need to be . ashley : okay , you 're clearly out of your mind , jack . whatever concoction you 've got going on , this grand scheme in your brain , just forget it , okay ? get a grip . please . victoria : i promise you , i am not falling apart any time soon . if you want to worry about somebody ... i nominate phyllis . how about that ? and if you want to make yourself useful , you can go set the table . billy : [ chuckles ] okay . i will get right on that . victoria : okay . hilary : i can be more honest with you than i can with anyone else , because nobody knows me the way that you do . devon : all right . so , what do you want ? hilary : i thought i wanted this show . maybe i was wrong . devon : so , what do you want ? hilary : i do n't know ! okay ? i always ... i felt like you -- you were trying to control me all the time , okay , but maybe -- maybe you were just trying to protect me from my own worst instincts . devon , you were my ... you were my balance . you were my voice of reason . and now i have to be my own conscience , and ... i get to do whatever i want to do . and i do n't have to answer to anyone , and ... and i like that . i do . i just ...

charlie : oh , yeah . hope : i panicked . i left douglas with charlie and raced back to the storage room . thomas ? all i could think about was thomas in the acid after he fell . and by the time i had gotten to the tank ... he had been completely eaten up by the acid . he was gone . i 'll never be able to get that image out of my head , mom . he 's gone and i -- i pushed him . i pushed him , mom . i pushed him . brooke : you were frightened . you were defending yourself . hope : no , i swore to protect douglas , i swore that . i - i promised that i 'd look out for him and his mother 's gone , and now his father is gone because of me . i took thomas away from him . brooke : stop . stop it ! i know you 're scared . i am , too . now we just need to figure out what we 're gon na do here . we need to think about this , hope . hope : [ whimpering ] no , no ! i can't . mom , i can't . the guilt is already eating away at me like the acid . i mean , it 's just a matter of time before somebody finds something , some trace of -- of thomas . brooke : oh ... hope : i need to go to ridge . yeah , i have -- i have to confess . i need to -- i need to go to ridge . i need to tell him ... ... i killed his son .Summarize.[/INST]steffy drops in on ridge while he is draping one of the models . he says it is not his , but thomas 's . she says she is impressed how much time he has been putting in on these and it shows . ridge says thomas ought to be here but he must have been caught up at school . in the doldrums , hope sits at brooke 's and all she can think about is the splash of acid she heard when thomas fell in the vat . she wo n't tell brooke more as she has already made her an accessory . liam comes in and wants to know what is wrong . hope is like in a stupor and wo n't or ca n't talk . liam is shocked when he sees the papers and realizes she has full custody as thomas signed the adoption papers . ridge tells steffy that douglas made it to school on time but there is no thomas . no one knows where he is . charlie and jake come in and say both of them need to come to the storage area . ridge has no time for such nonsense now but they insist . liam tells hope that he is not trying to freak her out but now she will be at forrester without him since he is going to be working at spencer publications . she will be there working with thomas . he keeps touching hope and asking if she is okay and she nods . when he leaves , hope tells brooke that thomas can not be a problem as he is dead and she is responsible . charlie walks ridge and steffy through the stages of the cleaning of the vat . charlie says it will be ready again to use safely very soon . ridge says fine , just be sure no other employees are down here or anyone gets hurt . hope keeps beating upon herself how stupid it was of her to think she could trick thomas . brooke says douglas is safe at school and that is all that matters now . she just has to hold on . hope says no , douglas will never forgive her . she wanted to be his mother but now he will never see his father again because of her .</s> | 560 |

[ scene_break ] adam : this is for you . victor : what is it ? adam : my resignation as c.e.o . i figure i would just save you the trouble of having the board members vote me out . victor : well , that was very thoughtful of you . if you 're serious about coming to work here and ... you got ta start at the bottom . adam : hit me . victor : your brother is working on a project he needs some assistance with . you 'll be reporting to him . adam : fine by me . you might want to check with him and see if he 's willing . victor : you let me worry about that , okay ? [ scene_break ] phyllis : so are you taking me to lunch ? nick : you know it .

( breathing heavily ) nikki : i know . but you -- you have to pace yourself , you know ? i - i know this is hard for you . i mean , this is like a foreign language to you . you 're used to bending the universe to your will , i know that . sarge : somebody 's looking for you . nikki : oh , hi , paul . paul : hi . how 's it going ? jack : slowly , but i 'm going home . paul : that 's great . that 's great news . patty has , um , has pretty much blocked out what she did to you , but she does remember how she got out of that psychiatric facility . she was led out by adam . jack : son of a bitch . paul : he knew long before you were shot that she was back in town , and he did n't tell anyone . he did n't try and help her . jack : 'cause he knew she 'd blow his cover . i could strangle that bastard . sarge : if he happens to stop by your hospital room ... jack : sign my release . sarge : will do . jack : ( breathing heavily ) paul : so , um , how are you getting home ? can i take you ? jack : that 'd be great . nikki : hey , you got out of the chair . i will come by later to make sure you have everything you need , okay ? right now i have to go see victor and tell him this news about adam . paul : that 's great . saves me from having to deal with him . [ scene_break ] nick : you want me to work with adam ? victor : he asked me to give him a chance to prove himself , okay ? so , um ... i 'm willing to give it to him , although i do n't think he 'll be particularly successful . nick : then why bother ? victor : to give you a succinct answer , i 'm doing it for his mother 's sake . nick : did he mention to you that sharon would like him to live with her on the ranch ? and you 're okay with that ? victor : well , i understand your concerns , son . i would never ask you to put faith into any kind of danger , okay ? nick : i actually told sharon that i thought we could probably work something out . victor : so then i guess adam is getting his wish . this , i assure you , will be the last chance he 'll ever be given to right all the dreadfully wrong things he has done . and do n't think for a moment that this is n't a very difficult decision on my part . [ scene_break ] sharon : yeah , but you told me that you 'd seen patty before she attacked you , but you forgot to mention that you were the reason why she 's free . adam : sharon , we ca n't discuss this here . sharon : jack will never walk again because of you . adam : sharon , upstairs , please .

[ scene_break ] sharon : okay , we 're alone . you want to tell me why you would do something so awful ? adam : sharon , there are a thousand things that i 've done that i wish had never entered my mind . sharon : what , like , too many to remember ? because i do n't buy that . we talked about patty . you let me go on about what a hero you were for trying to stop her . adam : sharon , you and i both know that i 'm no hero . i 'm far from it . at times , i 've been barely human . you should know that . that should be no surprise . sharon : what , you 're saying i should take this in stride ? adam : no , that 's not what i 'm saying . sharon : well , you might as well have pulled the trigger on jack yourself , or maybe you 're happy patty shot him . was that part of the plan , too ? adam : there was -- there was no plan at all . i was just acting out of fear and desperation . sharon : like when you took faith from me ? adam : fear and cowardice have been my main driving factors in my life for a long time , but all that has changed now . sharon : and what 's the driving factor now , adam ? love ? adam : shame , and maybe there 's a kind of fear -- fear of becoming that man again -- the man that you despise , as you should , as do i. i want to run from that guy , far away , but i ca n't , sharon . i ca n't . it 's a life sentence . i have to stay and i have to try and right some of these wrongs that i 've done . i 'm committed to doing this . i just do n't -- i hope that i do n't have to do it alone . i do n't deserve you , but i need you . please just ... stay with me , sharon . help me . sharon : talk about a life sentence , adam . what about jack ? you have condemned him to a wheelchair . how do you fix that ? adam : i ca n't . sharon : and patty , i ... do you even know ? she ca n't go back to the detention center that you broke her out of . she 's now in a maximum - security prison , and we both know what that 's like . she 's not equipped to deal with that , especially now . she had a chance at one point to recover and go back to her family , but you stole that from her , from everyone who loves her . and to see paul here , he was so heartbroken -- adam : sharon , i ca n't change the past , but i 'm not gon na make those same mistakes anymore . i know that sounds like empty promises , but they 're not . sharon : listening to paul , i - i could n't help but think ... what if it 's me one day , grieving for someone i love , for faith ? adam : i would never hurt faith . i know that i -- things i have done have hurt her . sharon : but you 've changed . adam : you 've seen it . you were there with me . you 've seen the difference . sharon : yeah . but it does n't mean i can risk my daughter 's future on it . adam : what 's that supposed to mean ? ( knock on door ) sharon : nick . nick : hey . dad tells me he wants us to work together and that he signed off on you living out at the ranch . sharon : um ... adam 's not gon na be moving to the ranch . nick : why ? what happened ? sharon : he helped patty escape from windcliff . he was afraid that she would testify against him . nick : you son of a -- adam : it was before new orleans , and it was before what happened at my mom 's . does n't that make a difference ? sharon : i wish it were enough . nick : come on , i 'll take you home . adam : sharon -- sharon , please , just stay and talk with me ? nick : you can forget about us ever working together . adam : do n't go . nick : what are you doing ? adam : sharon ? sharon : good - bye , adam .

[ scene_break ] nikki : patty told paul herself . victor : she would still be in that psychiatric facility if it had n't been for adam . but it bit him in the back , did n't it ? he lost his eyesight . nikki : he 's not the only one who paid a price , victor . victor : jack abbott is lucky he 's alive . nikki : it took your plan a while to come to fruition . victor : what are you talking about ? nikki : that 's why you brought patty to town , is n't it ? although you 've never admitted that you brought her to town , but you were hoping that she would lash out at jack , and then with adam 's help ... victor : you 're holding me responsible for this ? i had no idea what adam had done . nikki : what you did is not very different from what he did . victor : what the hell is the matter with you ? are you trying to pick a fight with me ? nikki : nope . i 'm sure not . but i have , because you are always right . never accountable . [ scene_break ] nick : sharon , you got ta stop beating yourself up . sharon : you know what adam told me ? that i should n't be surprised , which is true . this is the kind of thing that he does . he feels threatened , he goes on the attack , he uses people , and then this is what i do . i make excuses for him . nick : sharon , he 's depressed and blind and pathetic . i mean , even dad and i felt sorry for him . sharon : well , i still feel sorry for him . nick : you still love him . sharon : i love faith more . nick : you just proved that . but , sharon , you got ta be strong right now , 'cause you know adam 's gon na put a lot of pressure on you .

colin : if it affects my wife . ergo , it affects me . jill : especially if it turns a profit . colin : you got a problem with turning a profit ? jill : no . as long as it does n't involve turning fenmore 's into a money- laundering venture again . colin : that -- that was times gone by . look , i - i had to humor a loan shark who was threatening something that i hold very dear . jill : aww . your money clip . colin : [ sighs ] my beloved wife . i 'll introduce you one of these days . jill : [ laughs ] colin : look -- look , having money is great . i mean , you spend it , it 's a blessing , you throw it in the air . but you have my heart . jill : aww , baby . but do n't forget -- lauren did n't want to let you in on fenmore 's in the first place . colin : yeah . big deal . i got other fish to fry . so there . avery : oh ! what the hell are you doing ?

avery : i 'm not worried . joe : you 're enjoying this , are n't you ? avery : oh , come on , joe . like you said , it 's not personal , right ? it 's just business . dylan : a baby is great . but a baby does n't fix everything . do n't you and victoria still have a lot of stuff to get past ?

stitch : look , the night my father died , he was drunk . he was violent . that 's -- that 's how he was . we fought all the time , but that night -- that night was really bad . the two of us went at it . i left . i went to cool off . and when i came back , the shed he was in was on fire . my mother -- she was just standing there , watching it burn . dylan : your mother . stitch : he had been on her for years . he never let up on her . she just snapped . dylan : [ sighs ] stitch : you and i know how that goes . dylan : what -- afterwards , she let you take the fall ?

chelsea : uh , it was -- it was good . i told her how happy i am for her . billy : yeah ? chelsea : yeah . i mean , she gets to be a mom again . i am happy for her . but i did n't tell her how happy i am for us . i mean , we 're good , billy . you do n't have to hold my hand when you get these test results back . i am okay no matter what happens . the question is , will you be ? billy : chels , i - i want her to be mine -- the baby . i do . i held her . i watched her take her first breath . you know , i got to do that with delia , and it changed my life forever . and this baby -- she 's not some dee dee stand - in . she 's her own little person . chelsea : you 've wanted to give victoria a baby for so long . lucy ... billy : lucy . chelsea : and johnny , but -- but this -- i mean , this would be different . billy : if my dna matches , it does n't mean instant family . it just means -- it means i 'm a dad again . that 's it . chelsea : oh , billy , come on . that is not all it means . if this baby turns out to be yours , there are gon na be ... thoughts and -- and feelings for you and victoria . i 'm just being a realist . we have to at least acknowledge that ... it may change things . billy : it will change things . just not between you and me . hey . you 're a realist . this is real . dr. walsh : we 've done a measure of 16 genetic markers , and there 's a match of all 16 . victoria : okay , so ... there 's no confusion . there 's no chance that it 's not accurate . i mean , your lab is -- it 's secure , right ? it 's just , you know , sometimes , things happen , like , on accident or -- or on purpose , and , um ... you just -- you 're 100 % sure that you know who the father is ? okay . this is it , then . [ door opens ] stitch : sorry . am i late ? victoria : no . it 's okay . did you see billy out there ? stitch : uh , no . no , i did n't . victoria : oh . okay . well , maybe we should just wait until he gets here , you know , so that we can all find out at once . billy : sure . yeah . you 're call . sure . victoria : dr. walsh , would you mind giving us a moment ? thanks . stitch : so , how you feeling ? victoria : tired . stitch : yeah ? victoria : if that counts . stitch : the baby keep you up last night ? victoria : [ sighs ] uh , yeah . but , you know , losing sleep for this reason is the best reason in the world . my mom and dad helped me out . i stayed at the ranch last night . stitch : well , good . i - i 'm glad someone was with you . victoria : yeah . how are you ? how 's maureen ? have you -- have you heard from her ? stitch : no . not since she left the hospital . victoria : did you tell the police what happened ? stitch : paul knows . victoria : oh . okay . hopefully he 'll be able to find her . stitch : you know ...

[ chuckles ] victoria : well , you could go back to work at the hospital now that the charges have been dropped , you know ? i mean , i know that you 'll still be pressed for time , but at least you 'll be doing something that you love and might give you a whole new outlook on things .

sage : yeah . nick : i still can not believe i stepped into a bear trap . sage : yeah , i know . nick : getting a lot of laughs about that , actually . are n't those things illegal ? sage : yes , i think they are illegal . that was a relic . i thought they cleared all those bear traps out of there . nick : well , they missed that one . sage : yeah . what were you doing there , all by yourself , walking around ? nick : just looking for something . sage : did you find it ? nick : well , let 's put it this way -- it was definitely not what i was expecting . and you ? sage : what ? nick : well , how did you end out there , just when i needed you ? sage : oh , i -- i was just , uh , jogging . i jog . nick : with your dog ? sage : my what ? nick : there was a dog out there . stayed with me the whole time till you showed up . sage : oh . that must 've been your guardian angel , looking down on you , helping you . nick : yeah , and there 's one down here , obviously . sage : [ chuckles ] nick : i went looking for you afterwards . sage : you did . nick : i came across this spooky old mansion . i mean , it was straight out of `` psycho . `` mrs. bates actually answered the door . sage : [ laughs ] she did ?

stitch : no problem . yeah . jill : victoria , back here by the tree . victoria : oh , yeah , sure , sure . jill : do you have a little digestive upset ? is that what you 're having ? victoria : [ chuckles ] jill : okay . great . and now one with the proud parents , okay ? victoria : okay . jill : good . stitch , you can take this one , too . okay . close together . close together . smile ! perfect . stitch : there we go . lily : it 's not gon na work . you can sit here and schmooze my husband all day long , but he 's not gon na help you carve up this town . joe : i 'm trying to revitalize it , lily . lily : no , you 're trying to make money . that 's why you 're having this cocktail party here -- to line up support before dylan can hold a rally to stop you . cane : see ? you got her all riled up . joe : what 's wrong with making money ? you as a businesswoman , i think , would appreciate that . lily : i do appreciate it , but i also appreciate tradition . and if you tear it down , you 're losing something irreplaceable . and that is bad for business . joe : so , how about it ? is she speaking for you ? cane : lily and i are a team , and you should never forget that . joe : duly noted . and given my past with relationships , well , i 'm inspired by you two . it 's nice to see a couple that actually loves and respects one another . paul : congratulations ! i could n't be happier . avery : oh ! well , we 're pretty happy ourselves . paul : yeah . so what took you so long ? dylan : we had a few little obstacles to overcome . avery : yes , just a few . dylan : yes . paul : but here you are -- you made it . dylan : we did . and now if we can stop this redevelopment project from moving forward , we would have everything we could possibly ask for . avery : it 's going to happen . dylan : i know , because i 'm on a winning streak . avery : yes . paul : yeah . christine : hey . paul : oh , hi ! you 're not the only one . go ahead . you 're just in time . dylan : avery and i are engaged . christine : oh , my gosh ! that 's so great ! paul : is n't that fabulous ? christine : so great . paul : chris and i have an announcement of our own . we 're gon na have a baby . nick : i mean , everything was fine , at first . but then she started getting nervous or something and started covering . what i ca n't figure out is why she would do that . sage : she just gets confused sometimes . it happens , unfortunately . nick : so , you do know her . sage : yes , i do . i live very close by , and sometimes she gets confused , and i just lend a helping hand when i can . nick : well , you 're good at that . sage : oh , gosh . oh , my gosh . it has gotten really , really late . nick : well , you came in here looking for something to eat . sage : i know , and i forgot that i was meeting a friend of mine , so it was really nice to meet you -- for the third time . nick : wait . hold up , though . before you go , i just have -- i have -- i got one more question for you . um ... the night you found me ... you were n't alone , right ? there was someone else with you that was a guy ? who was he ? adam : hey , it 's 2 : 00 . does that ring a bell , or did you forget you 're supposed to meet me at the park ? anyway , i 'm , uh -- i 'm gon na wait around here for you for a couple more minutes . if i do n't see or hear from you , then you 're gon na have to find your own way back to ... back to the house . cane : thank you very much . joe : well , looks like providence is on our side . this is a great opportunity . lily : what , for you to invite victor to your party ? joe : for cane to . cane : how did i get roped into all this ? joe : he 'd be more inclined to listen to you . lily : okay . do you really want to get in the middle of all this ? you say that you 're on my side -- joe : which is to remain neutral , which , from my understanding , does n't jeopardize that . i 'm simply asking cane to extend an invitation . mr. newman can accept or not . victor : thank you . cane : excuse me , victor . would you mind if i join you ? victor : hello , cane . i just ordered . i have a minute . sit down . cane : thank you . lily : you know , he is really going out of his way to help you . it 's just , there 's a lot of bad blood there . victor practically forced him to quit chancellor . joe : well , you think he regrets it ? i mean , look at him . he 's in his element , lily . lily : well , seems like you 're in your element , too , trying to recruit cane and me . joe : look , it 's no secret that i would n't want you two on my team , all right ? cane 's a proven asset . and you know what they say -- behind every great man is an extraordinary woman . nick : i do n't mean to put you on the spot . but if there was a guy there , i 'd -- i 'd like to thank him , too . maybe i imagined that , as well . avery : hi . nick : hey . avery : oh , i hope i 'm not too early . sage : no , not at all . i was just leaving . stay out of those bear traps . nick : i 'll try . you may not have seen them , but that woman 's got a set of wings on her . avery : wait . was that the woman who saved you ? nick : it is . she walked right into my bar ? can you believe that ? avery : what 's her name ? nick : uh ... you know , she never said . but i got to thank her for everything she did and tell her how much i appreciate it . avery : ah . well , we should get down to business . nick : yeah . the sooner the better . let 's have a seat . [ chuckles ] avery : sure . nick : um , so , i ca n't tell you how furious i was to come to sharon 's house and find her and david sherman talking about the case with faith in that house . i wanted to hand this guy his teeth on a platter . but i did n't , because , you know , cooler heads prevailed . avery : good . violence is not the way to solve this . nick : yeah , i know we 're in a good position here , and i do n't want to blow it . avery : exactly . now , here is the motion that we talked about . i 'm ready to file it , as soon as you sign off on it . nick : whoa . what do you got going on here ? something you want to tell me about ? avery : um , yeah . just something i picked up in a gumball machine . nick : must 've been a pretty expensive gumball machine . so dylan finally popped the question ? avery : i hope we have your blessing . nick : of course , you do . but i do think my brother is punching way over his weight . avery : [ chuckles ] well , i 'm pretty lucky myself . nick : eh , you 're both lucky . a lot of people go their whole lives without finding what you and dylan have . chelsea : was n't that fun visiting with santa claus ? hmm ? i ca n't wait until christmas morning when he brings you lots of presents . but you do know christmas is not just about getting presents . right ? it 's about love and life and hope . it 's about the first big snowfall and tasting the snowflakes on your tongue , and ... sleighing down the hill and making snow angels . hmm ? watching everybody ice skate on the frozen pond . keeping warm with hot chocolate . but mostly , christmas is about family , hmm ? i know you . victoria : that 's impossible . i do n't see it . billy : no , look -- right here . you see how the corners of her mouth are curling up ? she 's smiling . jill : well , i do n't know if katie 's smiling , but look at the two of you . you 're sure smiling . [ chuckles ] oh , would you e - mail me these tomorrow ? victoria : yes , i will , tomorrow , when i have more time . billy : i think that is our cue to leave . jill : honey , honey , why do n't you stay and help victoria with the baby ? victoria : um , ben can stay , actually . right ? stitch : yeah , if you -- if you 'd like . jill : yeah , but there 's really nothing like a father 's touch . victoria : well , i 'm sure that we 'll have plenty of opportunity for that . jill : oh . all right , little sweetie . daddy 's gon na come back and see you real soon . billy : yeah , you can count on it . daddy loves you . jill : [ chuckles ] billy : hey , thanks for this , and i 'll see you later . uh , i guess that goes for you , too . jill : not necessarily . [ door closes ] stitch : so , is billy right ? will he be seeing me here soon ? victoria : you know that 's what i want . stitch : you know , all i can think about is looking through that window and seeing you and billy and katie together , and ... victoria : so do n't think about that . you know ? that has no bearing on us . we can do this , ben . i know we can make it . right ? right ? stitch : yeah . victoria : okay . stitch : okay . victoria : now , what did you want to tell me ? stitch : um ... stitch : i 'm not quite sure how to tell you this . victoria : take your time . i 'm not going anywhere . stitch : there is a secret i 'm keeping from you . victoria : about ashley . stitch : ashley and the project we 're working on , um ... i know your dad is desperate for details , and he might ask you to get them from me , and i ca n't do it , victoria . i ca n't share any of this with you . victoria : [ chuckles ] hold on a second . is that what you 're worried about ? stitch : yeah . you know , sometimes these kind of things can break people up . victoria : yeah , i guess , if you ca n't separate the professional from the personal , but i can , so ... i do n't think that we have anything standing in our way . stitch : no , i guess not . victoria : good . so , now that that 's settled , i 'd like to get back to the original topic that we were discussing -- that romantic date that i was talking about . stitch : yeah . did you have anything in mind ? victoria : yes , actually , i did , and since you have n't asked me , ben russell , what are doing on new year 's eve ? nick : so , when 's the big day ? avery : oh , we have n't set one yet . but , uh , i did n't come here to talk about my engagement . we have a lot of business to do , and , you know , i charge by the hour , so the quicker we do this , the less it 's gon na cost you . nick : well , i know what you 're doing , and i know why you 're doing it , but you do n't have to . avery : what do you mean ? nick : you do n't have to feel guilty about your happiness with dylan just because me and sharon did n't work out . you and dylan deserve this . i mean , you 've been through hell to get here . avery : it 's definitely been a long road . nick : and look where it 's taking you -- to the best place possible . you two have passed every test thrown at you , you 've proved that you belong together . and do n't let anyone or anybody come between you . avery : thank you , nick . thank you . joe : well , if this is a stroll down memory lane , you mind if i join ? paul : here 's to marriage . dylan : i 'll drink to that . and avery would , too , if she did n't have to take off . paul : and one more toast to a baby on the way . christine : okay . you keep saying that , but we do n't know for sure . paul : well , the home - pregnancy test says it is . christine : we need a doctor to confirm it . paul : here 's to confirmation , then . dylan : to confirmation . well , if that happens and i can fight off the developers , we 're gon na have a lot to celebrate this christmas . paul : well , let 's hope santa gives us everything we want . right , sweetheart ? christine : right . jill : i do n't know why you did n't insist on staying with victoria . i mean , katie is your child , billy . she 's not dr. buttinski 's . billy : stitch did n't seem like he was butting in , at least not in victoria 's eyes . jill : well , that 's because she 's not thinking straight . you 've got to do something about this . billy : oh , not this again . jill : yes , this again . i 'm gon na keep saying it until you listen to me . billy : well , there 's nothing to listen to , okay ? victoria divorced me . there is no future for us . jill : that was before katie was born . children change everything . billy : you make it sound so simple . jill : oh , but it could be so simple , if only you and victoria were n't so proud and pigheaded . honey , if you do n't watch out , both of you are gon na end up with the wrong people . stitch is no more good for her than chelsea is for you . billy : oh . chelsea ... we 're supposed to be taking connor to go see santa , and -- and they 're probably already there . jill : well , i 'm supposed to meet colin at the club . you do n't see me running off . this is more important , billy . billy : what 's more important is me not screwing up yet another relationship . jill : billy , please -- billy : mom , i will always love victoria , and we will always have the kids to bond us , but look at me . my life is with chelsea now . chelsea : i 'm sure of it . i recognize you from somewhere . i just ca n't place it . hello ? can you help me out here ? adam : you 're right . we have seen each other before . adam : you and i go way back . chelsea : we do ? adam : all the way back to the other day at the genoa city athlete 's club ? chelsea : oh , athletic club . adam : athletic club . thank you . no , i 'm sorry . i 'm not from around here . but anyway , you were there , and you were waiting on somebody else across the room . chelsea : and you caught my eye , yeah . yeah , i remember . small world , huh ? adam : very . very small . chelsea : [ chuckles ] adam : that 's a very handsome young man you have there . chelsea : thank you . what do we say to the nice man , huh ? can we say thank you ? huh ? billy : hey . sorry i 'm late . chelsea : that 's okay . hi . look who 's here . billy : still time to see santa ? chelsea : oh ! well , i hate to break it to you , but he could n't wait any longer , so i took him myself , but you will be very proud . he was the only kid that did not cry on santa 's lap . billy : way to go , buddy . you 're a rock star . chelsea : yeah , he 's getting all the compliments today . this gentleman was just saying how handsome he ... where 'd he go ? billy : good job . cane : all we 're asking is that you come to the cocktail party and you hear the sales pitch . victor : hmm . i thought you said you had no interest in this . yet you just included yourself in that statement . cane : did i ? must 've been a slip of the tongue . victor : really ? i 'll be damned . okay . cane : so ? will you come to the party , yes or no ? victor : tell your people that i have some interest in the redevelopment of the warehouse district . i 'll think about it , okay ?

'cause it 's people that matter . it 's what they left us that matters . i mean , how would you feel if they tore katherine 's plaque off chancellor park and changed the name ... victor : mnh - mnh . jill : ... or if , a hundred years from now , nobody ever remembered the name newman enterprises ? victor : no one will tear down katherine 's plaque at chancellor park . and no one will forget newman enterprises . jill : well , they will if these shortsighted developers keep on getting their way . victor : well , then i suggest you talk to your stepson . 'cause i think he has more than a passing interest in that whole project , do n't you ? jill : listen , honey . victor : what ? jill : family members do n't always agree , do they ? you ought to know that better than anybody . victor : are we finished ? jill : i just want to tell you that if cane wants to back his friend , i got no argument with that . but me ? i feel a great loyalty to genoa city -- past , present , and future . victor : really ? and i do n't ? jill : well , does that mean you 're gon na stay out of this mess ? victor : what it means is that this conversation is finished . jill : [ chuckling ] victor : you have a good day . jill : you too . victor : all right . victoria : that was really sweet of you , singing katie to sleep like that . stitch : you think she liked my elvis imitation ? victoria : yeah . how could she not ? you 're so good at it . stitch : [ as elvis ] oh , well , thank you very much . victoria : and thank you for , um , you know , taking those pictures before . stitch : well , it 's not like jill gave me much choice . victoria : not really . stitch : besides , they were beautiful . victoria : but there was somebody missing . stitch : yeah ? victoria : i want a picture of us . stitch : oh , no , no , no . come on , come on . the camera hates me . victoria : you 're gorgeous . what are you talking about ? stop being so modest . come on . get in the shot . let 's see . aww ! now , see ? that 's cute . stitch : look at that face . look at that goofy smile . victoria : it 's not goofy . your little smile , your corners are turning . you look like elvis . it 's so sexy . i like it . stitch : do you ? victoria : uh - huh . billy : oh , i 'm sorry i missed the big moment . it 's not every day that a kid meets st. nick for the first time . so , what did you think about that beard , huh ? should i grow one like that ? chelsea : no , i do n't think so . hi ! here , let me grab him . billy : you got him ? chelsea : yeah .

nick : just looking for something . sage : did you find it ? nick : well , let 's put it this way -- it was definitely not what i was expecting . and you ? sage : what ? nick : well , how did you end out there , just when i needed you ? sage : oh , i -- i was just , uh , jogging . i jog . nick : with your dog ? sage : my what ? nick : there was a dog out there . stayed with me the whole time till you showed up . sage : oh . that must 've been your guardian angel , looking down on you , helping you . nick : yeah , and there 's one down here , obviously . sage : [ chuckles ] nick : i went looking for you afterwards . sage : you did . nick : i came across this spooky old mansion . i mean , it was straight out of `` psycho . `` mrs. bates actually answered the door . sage : [ laughs ] she did ?

you got her all riled up . joe : what 's wrong with making money ? you as a businesswoman , i think , would appreciate that . lily : i do appreciate it , but i also appreciate tradition . and if you tear it down , you 're losing something irreplaceable . and that is bad for business . joe : so , how about it ? is she speaking for you ? cane : lily and i are a team , and you should never forget that . joe : duly noted . and given my past with relationships , well , i 'm inspired by you two . it 's nice to see a couple that actually loves and respects one another . paul : congratulations ! i could n't be happier . avery : oh ! well , we 're pretty happy ourselves . paul : yeah . so what took you so long ? dylan : we had a few little obstacles to overcome . avery : yes , just a few . dylan : yes . paul : but here you are -- you made it . dylan : we did . and now if we can stop this redevelopment project from moving forward , we would have everything we could possibly ask for . avery : it 's going to happen . dylan : i know , because i 'm on a winning streak . avery : yes . paul : yeah . christine : hey . paul : oh , hi ! you 're not the only one . go ahead . you 're just in time . dylan : avery and i are engaged . christine : oh , my gosh ! that 's so great ! paul : is n't that fabulous ? christine : so great . paul : chris and i have an announcement of our own . we 're gon na have a baby . nick : i mean , everything was fine , at first . but then she started getting nervous or something and started covering . what i ca n't figure out is why she would do that . sage : she just gets confused sometimes . it happens , unfortunately . nick : so , you do know her . sage : yes , i do . i live very close by , and sometimes she gets confused , and i just lend a helping hand when i can . nick : well , you 're good at that . sage : oh , gosh . oh , my gosh . it has gotten really , really late . nick : well , you came in here looking for something to eat . sage : i know , and i forgot that i was meeting a friend of mine , so it was really nice to meet you -- for the third time . nick : wait . hold up , though . before you go , i just have -- i have -- i got one more question for you . um ... the night you found me ... you were n't alone , right ? there was someone else with you that was a guy ? who was he ? adam : hey , it 's 2 : 00 . does that ring a bell , or did you forget you 're supposed to meet me at the park ? anyway , i 'm , uh -- i 'm gon na wait around here for you for a couple more minutes . if i do n't see or hear from you , then you 're gon na have to find your own way back to ... back to the house . cane : thank you very much . joe : well , looks like providence is on our side . this is a great opportunity . lily : what , for you to invite victor to your party ? joe : for cane to . cane : how did i get roped into all this ? joe : he 'd be more inclined to listen to you . lily : okay . do you really want to get in the middle of all this ? you say that you 're on my side -- joe : which is to remain neutral , which , from my understanding , does n't jeopardize that . i 'm simply asking cane to extend an invitation . mr. newman can accept or not . victor : thank you . cane : excuse me , victor . would you mind if i join you ? victor : hello , cane . i just ordered . i have a minute . sit down . cane : thank you . lily : you know , he is really going out of his way to help you . it 's just , there 's a lot of bad blood there . victor practically forced him to quit chancellor . joe : well , you think he regrets it ? i mean , look at him . he 's in his element , lily . lily : well , seems like you 're in your element , too , trying to recruit cane and me . joe : look , it 's no secret that i would n't want you two on my team , all right ? cane 's a proven asset . and you know what they say -- behind every great man is an extraordinary woman . nick : i do n't mean to put you on the spot . but if there was a guy there , i 'd -- i 'd like to thank him , too . maybe i imagined that , as well . avery : hi . nick : hey . avery : oh , i hope i 'm not too early . sage : no , not at all . i was just leaving . stay out of those bear traps . nick : i 'll try . you may not have seen them , but that woman 's got a set of wings on her . avery : wait . was that the woman who saved you ? nick : it is . she walked right into my bar ? can you believe that ? avery : what 's her name ? nick : uh ... you know , she never said . but i got to thank her for everything she did and tell her how much i appreciate it . avery : ah . well , we should get down to business . nick : yeah . the sooner the better . let 's have a seat . [ chuckles ] avery : sure . nick : um , so , i ca n't tell you how furious i was to come to sharon 's house and find her and david sherman talking about the case with faith in that house . i wanted to hand this guy his teeth on a platter . but i did n't , because , you know , cooler heads prevailed . avery : good . violence is not the way to solve this . nick : yeah , i know we 're in a good position here , and i do n't want to blow it . avery : exactly . now , here is the motion that we talked about . i 'm ready to file it , as soon as you sign off on it . nick : whoa . what do you got going on here ? something you want to tell me about ? avery : um , yeah . just something i picked up in a gumball machine . nick : must 've been a pretty expensive gumball machine . so dylan finally popped the question ? avery : i hope we have your blessing . nick : of course , you do . but i do think my brother is punching way over his weight . avery : [ chuckles ] well , i 'm pretty lucky myself . nick : eh , you 're both lucky . a lot of people go their whole lives without finding what you and dylan have . chelsea : was n't that fun visiting with santa claus ? hmm ? i ca n't wait until christmas morning when he brings you lots of presents . but you do know christmas is not just about getting presents . right ? it 's about love and life and hope . it 's about the first big snowfall and tasting the snowflakes on your tongue , and ... sleighing down the hill and making snow angels . hmm ? watching everybody ice skate on the frozen pond . keeping warm with hot chocolate . but mostly , christmas is about family , hmm ? i know you . victoria : that 's impossible . i do n't see it . billy : no , look -- right here . you see how the corners of her mouth are curling up ? she 's smiling . jill : well , i do n't know if katie 's smiling , but look at the two of you . you 're sure smiling . [ chuckles ] oh , would you e - mail me these tomorrow ? victoria : yes , i will , tomorrow , when i have more time . billy : i think that is our cue to leave . jill : honey , honey , why do n't you stay and help victoria with the baby ? victoria : um , ben can stay , actually . right ? stitch : yeah , if you -- if you 'd like . jill : yeah , but there 's really nothing like a father 's touch . victoria : well , i 'm sure that we 'll have plenty of opportunity for that . jill : oh . all right , little sweetie . daddy 's gon na come back and see you real soon . billy : yeah , you can count on it . daddy loves you . jill : [ chuckles ] billy : hey , thanks for this , and i 'll see you later . uh , i guess that goes for you , too . jill : not necessarily . [ door closes ] stitch : so , is billy right ? will he be seeing me here soon ? victoria : you know that 's what i want . stitch : you know , all i can think about is looking through that window and seeing you and billy and katie together , and ... victoria : so do n't think about that . you know ? that has no bearing on us . we can do this , ben . i know we can make it . right ? right ? stitch : yeah . victoria : okay . stitch : okay . victoria : now , what did you want to tell me ? stitch : um ... stitch : i 'm not quite sure how to tell you this . victoria : take your time . i 'm not going anywhere . stitch : there is a secret i 'm keeping from you . victoria : about ashley . stitch : ashley and the project we 're working on , um ... i know your dad is desperate for details , and he might ask you to get them from me , and i ca n't do it , victoria . i ca n't share any of this with you . victoria : [ chuckles ] hold on a second . is that what you 're worried about ? stitch : yeah . you know , sometimes these kind of things can break people up . victoria : yeah , i guess , if you ca n't separate the professional from the personal , but i can , so ... i do n't think that we have anything standing in our way . stitch : no , i guess not . victoria : good . so , now that that 's settled , i 'd like to get back to the original topic that we were discussing -- that romantic date that i was talking about . stitch : yeah . did you have anything in mind ? victoria : yes , actually , i did , and since you have n't asked me , ben russell , what are doing on new year 's eve ? nick : so , when 's the big day ? avery : oh , we have n't set one yet . but , uh , i did n't come here to talk about my engagement . we have a lot of business to do , and , you know , i charge by the hour , so the quicker we do this , the less it 's gon na cost you . nick : well , i know what you 're doing , and i know why you 're doing it , but you do n't have to . avery : what do you mean ? nick : you do n't have to feel guilty about your happiness with dylan just because me and sharon did n't work out . you and dylan deserve this . i mean , you 've been through hell to get here . avery : it 's definitely been a long road . nick : and look where it 's taking you -- to the best place possible . you two have passed every test thrown at you , you 've proved that you belong together . and do n't let anyone or anybody come between you . avery : thank you , nick . thank you . joe : well , if this is a stroll down memory lane , you mind if i join ?

victoria divorced me . there is no future for us . jill : that was before katie was born . children change everything . billy : you make it sound so simple . jill : oh , but it could be so simple , if only you and victoria were n't so proud and pigheaded . honey , if you do n't watch out , both of you are gon na end up with the wrong people . stitch is no more good for her than chelsea is for you . billy : oh . chelsea ... we 're supposed to be taking connor to go see santa , and -- and they 're probably already there . jill : well , i 'm supposed to meet colin at the club . you do n't see me running off . this is more important , billy . billy : what 's more important is me not screwing up yet another relationship . jill : billy , please -- billy : mom , i will always love victoria , and we will always have the kids to bond us , but look at me . my life is with chelsea now . chelsea : i 'm sure of it . i recognize you from somewhere . i just ca n't place it . hello ?

christine : do you really want to know ? paul : well , yeah , or i would n't ask . christine : i just wish you had n't said anything to anyone . christine : it 's not anyone . he 's my son . christine : i know , but we agreed that we would wait to find out for sure if i was pregnant . paul : honestly , that was my intention . i , uh ... i just got carried away . i was so thrilled that dylan and avery are engaged , i wanted to share our excitement about a baby . christine : okay . but what if ... paul : oh . come here . [ breathes deeply ] look , i 'm sorry . i know i jumped the gun . and i know there is a slight chance that there is a false - positive . i hope that 's not the case , but if it is ... the good news is , we can keep on trying . okay ? christine : okay . dylan : you 'll want to hear this , too . at least , i hope you will . nick : well , if you 're talking about what i think you 're talking about , i 've already seen the evidence , and i wholeheartedly approve . joe : evidence ? nick : yeah . must 've set you back quite a pretty penny , man . i 'm proud of you . i 'm behind you all the way . dylan : thanks . joe : what is this ? about the protest ? what , did you hire some people to show up ? avery : that wo n't be necessary . the rally 's gon na be huge . nick : you really ca n't see what 's happening here ? you must be just too focused on tearing up our neighborhoods . joe : okay . i give up . what am i missing ? congratulations . i mean it . i 've always wanted you to be happy , avery , and if ... dylan does that for you , then so be it . i wish you both all the luck in the world . victor : thank you . i 'm surprised at you . always thought of you as the savvy businesswoman . and yet now you tell me you 're interested in ... some tired old buildings ? jill : it 's not the buildings , victor -- not per se . it 's the people in the buildings . it 's ... people who 've worked there for years -- for generations , some of them . victor : all right . and ? jill : well , you tear those down , you eliminate everything that makes genoa city genoa city victor : since when have you become such a sentimentalist ? jill : since katherine died . victor : mm . jill : see , i just ... i want to know that there 's something lasting in this world , you know ? that we do n't just move forward and forget everything that came before .

my baby died , and you knew it , and you did n't tell me . xander : sarah , remember what it was like after the accident ? sarah : yeah , actually , i do . xander : there was only one ambulance , and they had to take adrienne . there was no way i could get you to the hospital on time . sarah : i know that , xander . i was there xander : i was in a panic , and you were telling me that the baby was coming and i had to deliver her . and i was so afraid that i would -- that i would kill her or you . but we did it . we brought her into this world . sarah : when she did n't cry at first ... it was a head injury from the accident . xander : as soon as i held her in my arms , i -- i loved her like she was my own . and when i placed her in yours , the look on your face , i -- i 'll never forget it . i was so happy . so i put you both in my car , and i took you to the hospital , and i was sure everything was gon na be all right . but when i got there , they told me they had to examine her in the nursery , and i just assumed it was all routine . sarah : when did you find out you were wrong ? xander : i looked in on the doctor examining her , and i knew she was n't right . the next thing i knew , she was having a seizure . sarah : oh , my god , my poor baby . xander : she stopped breathing after that . and they told me they -- they said there was nothing they could do for her . sarah : oh , you saw her die , and you did n't tell me ! xander : i would 've rather died myself ... than let you lose her . how ? sarah , how could i tell you that she had died ? i had to think of something . i had to come up with some way that you would n't have to feel that pain , so i -- sarah : so you gave me someone else 's baby . you -- you let me take her home and care for her . you let me love her so much that i would die . i would die for her . you let me see her through cancer and be terrified that i was gon na lose her . god , and when eric and i found out that she was cancer - free , you kicked him out so that you and i could celebrate . i mean , did you ever think for a second that we 'd find out the truth ? xander : i just -- i thought i could handle it . sarah : handle it how ? xander : i just love you so much . sarah : oh , my god . how can you say that to me ? how can you say that when you 've hurt me more than i 've ever been hurt in my life . you may not see them , but your itchy eyes know steve : when kayla told me adrienne died , first thing that popped into my head was , i got ta call my sister . jack : yeah . steve : she 'll know what to do . jack : yeah , yeah . steve : [ chuckles ] jack : i 'm kicking myself right now . i 'm kicking myself for being furious at you for missing that funeral . i should 've known . i should 've known something was seriously wrong . you would 've gone through hell to be at adrienne 's funeral . steve : how could you know that some crazy son of a bitch put a microchip in my brain ? jack : hey , rolf is the reason that i 'm here . it never occurred to me what he would go through to bring stefano back . steve : i heard i did some pretty bad things . especially to marlena . jack : it was n't you . we all know that you were n't in control when you missed adrienne 's funeral , you were n't in control when you signed those divorce papers . you never would 've been that hurtful . steve : no , not deliberately . jack : what are you talking about ? steve : before all this happened , before sefano 's people grabbed me , i made a bad decision . i was trying to be noble for my country . when my eye was hacked , i thought , well , it 's my responsibility to put everything right . but i should 've made kayla my priority . if i had come back here sooner , this nightmare -- none of it would 've happened . kayla would ... never have left me . jennifer : i know how steve feels , just losing all that time and then learning that someone that you love so much has died . kristen : i 'm afraid steve has a lot of pain ahead . jennifer : we saw you holding him when we came in . kristen : i felt like i had just punched him in the gut . jennifer : wow . what 's ahead for you and steve right now ? kristen : you know , up until now , i was just his doctor . i managed to get him through that surgery , i thought -- i thought for sure i botched it . and then in recovery , he woke up and he did n't remember who he was , so ... as his doctor , i felt the best treatment for him was for him to remember how much we loved each other . so i sat at his bedside , and i ... i told him the story of us . jennifer : that is quite a story . kayla : yeah . when we met , and i recited our vows , and ... the wedding on the boat . jennifer : yeah . is that what did it ? is that what brought his memory back ? kayla : well , i do n't know if it was just physiological or maybe it 's just a coincidence that it happened at that time . jennifer : no , kayla , it 's not just coincidence . he remembers your great love . uh , does he know about justin and -- kayla : yeah . yeah . jennifer : oh , my goodness . so that has to be so difficult for him to -- kayla : and for justin , what he 's going through . jennifer : right , it 's so difficult for him , too . kayla : it 's not that he does n't want steve back or for him to be okay . he does . it 's just that this changes everything . we had come to be so close , you know ? i mean , really , we have been there for each other through such sad times . i mean , i did n't really think that i would fall in love again . but i have . deeply .

xander : i know you 're still in shock . sarah : you could say that . xander : all i can say is i was trying to protect you . i 've never loved anyone the way i love you . sarah : do you actually think that that 's love ? you lied to me about the most important person in my life . my god , you 're delusional . xander : i did n't want you to lose your child . sarah : so you gave me brady and kristen 's ? xander , you let them think that their child was dead . that is n't love . it 's a classic move from the kiriakis family goon . and it did n't work . these are my last hours that i get to have with the baby that i thought was mine . xander : you do n't know that . sarah : eric 's probably telling brady and kristen now . they 're gon na want their daughter . so you have any big ideas on how -- how am i supposed to let her go ?

my baby died , and you knew it , and you did n't tell me . xander : sarah , remember what it was like after the accident ? sarah : yeah , actually , i do . xander : there was only one ambulance , and they had to take adrienne . there was no way i could get you to the hospital on time . sarah : i know that , xander . i was there xander : i was in a panic , and you were telling me that the baby was coming and i had to deliver her . and i was so afraid that i would -- that i would kill her or you . but we did it . we brought her into this world . sarah : when she did n't cry at first ... it was a head injury from the accident . xander : as soon as i held her in my arms , i -- i loved her like she was my own . and when i placed her in yours , the look on your face , i -- i 'll never forget it . i was so happy . so i put you both in my car , and i took you to the hospital , and i was sure everything was gon na be all right . but when i got there , they told me they had to examine her in the nursery , and i just assumed it was all routine . sarah : when did you find out you were wrong ? xander : i looked in on the doctor examining her , and i knew she was n't right . the next thing i knew , she was having a seizure . sarah : oh , my god , my poor baby . xander : she stopped breathing after that . and they told me they -- they said there was nothing they could do for her . sarah : oh , you saw her die , and you did n't tell me ! xander : i would 've rather died myself ... than let you lose her . how ? sarah , how could i tell you that she had died ? i had to think of something . i had to come up with some way that you would n't have to feel that pain , so i -- sarah : so you gave me someone else 's baby . you -- you let me take her home and care for her . you let me love her so much that i would die . i would die for her . you let me see her through cancer and be terrified that i was gon na lose her . god , and when eric and i found out that she was cancer - free , you kicked him out so that you and i could celebrate . i mean , did you ever think for a second that we 'd find out the truth ? xander : i just -- i thought i could handle it . sarah : handle it how ? xander : i just love you so much . sarah : oh , my god . how can you say that to me ? how can you say that when you 've hurt me more than i 've ever been hurt in my life . you may not see them , but your itchy eyes know steve : when kayla told me adrienne died , first thing that popped into my head was , i got ta call my sister . jack : yeah . steve : she 'll know what to do . jack : yeah , yeah . steve : [ chuckles ] jack : i 'm kicking myself right now . i 'm kicking myself for being furious at you for missing that funeral . i should 've known . i should 've known something was seriously wrong . you would 've gone through hell to be at adrienne 's funeral . steve : how could you know that some crazy son of a bitch put a microchip in my brain ? jack : hey , rolf is the reason that i 'm here . it never occurred to me what he would go through to bring stefano back . steve : i heard i did some pretty bad things . especially to marlena . jack : it was n't you . we all know that you were n't in control when you missed adrienne 's funeral , you were n't in control when you signed those divorce papers . you never would 've been that hurtful . steve : no , not deliberately . jack : what are you talking about ? steve : before all this happened , before sefano 's people grabbed me , i made a bad decision . i was trying to be noble for my country . when my eye was hacked , i thought , well , it 's my responsibility to put everything right . but i should 've made kayla my priority . if i had come back here sooner , this nightmare -- none of it would 've happened . kayla would ... never have left me . jennifer : i know how steve feels , just losing all that time and then learning that someone that you love so much has died . kristen : i 'm afraid steve has a lot of pain ahead . jennifer : we saw you holding him when we came in . kristen : i felt like i had just punched him in the gut . jennifer : wow . what 's ahead for you and steve right now ? kristen : you know , up until now , i was just his doctor . i managed to get him through that surgery , i thought -- i thought for sure i botched it . and then in recovery , he woke up and he did n't remember who he was , so ... as his doctor , i felt the best treatment for him was for him to remember how much we loved each other . so i sat at his bedside , and i ... i told him the story of us . jennifer : that is quite a story . kayla : yeah . when we met , and i recited our vows , and ... the wedding on the boat . jennifer : yeah . is that what did it ? is that what brought his memory back ? kayla : well , i do n't know if it was just physiological or maybe it 's just a coincidence that it happened at that time . jennifer : no , kayla , it 's not just coincidence . he remembers your great love . uh , does he know about justin and -- kayla : yeah . yeah . jennifer : oh , my goodness . so that has to be so difficult for him to -- kayla : and for justin , what he 's going through . jennifer : right , it 's so difficult for him , too . kayla : it 's not that he does n't want steve back or for him to be okay . he does . it 's just that this changes everything . we had come to be so close , you know ? i mean , really , we have been there for each other through such sad times . i mean , i did n't really think that i would fall in love again . but i have . deeply . [ elevator bell dings ] brady : oh , so -- kristen : i do n't know what to say , eric , but i -- i am so sorry , and i will pray for you . eric : thank you . thank you both . kristen : and i know you hate my guts for good reason , but ... you uncovered the truth . you got the dna results , and i thank you , i thank you so , so much from the bottom of my heart . brady : uh , let 's give them -- give them some privacy , okay ? xander : i know you 're still in shock . sarah : you could say that . xander : all i can say is i was trying to protect you . i 've never loved anyone the way i love you . sarah : do you actually think that that 's love ? you lied to me about the most important person in my life . my god , you 're delusional . xander : i did n't want you to lose your child . sarah : so you gave me brady and kristen 's ? xander , you let them think that their child was dead . that is n't love . it 's a classic move from the kiriakis family goon . and it did n't work . these are my last hours that i get to have with the baby that i thought was mine . xander : you do n't know that . sarah : eric 's probably telling brady and kristen now . they 're gon na want their daughter . so you have any big ideas on how -- how am i supposed to let her go ?

[ sighs ] nathan : thanks . maxie : so , now that we 've both taken responsibility , do you think you could stop blaming levi ? spencer : you should totally come with us . britt : your dad does n't want that . i 'm sorry . this is awkward . spencer : but you have food and drink ! father , come on . no one should be alone on fourth of july . nikolas : enough of the puppy - dog eyes already , all right ? come on . i - i owe you for what you did for elizabeth . rosalie : i 'm so sorry .

[ laughs ] what ? nikolas : oh , no , nothing . it 's just -- it 's refreshing to be with a woman who enjoys her food as much as you . brook lynn : oh , i know , very ladylike , huh ? nikolas : you tone it down at dinner parties . speaking of dinner ... uh , if you do n't have any plans this afternoon , i 'd like to fly into manhattan if we could . brook lynn : oh , a last - minute invitation ? nikolas : not work this time . i 'm asking you out . brook lynn : you are ? oh , so is this like a pity date for last night ? nikolas : no . no , no , not at all . i was flattered by that . brook lynn : you were ? 'cause i was gon na tell you i was thinking about maybe saying yes . nikolas : you willing to take that risk ? brook lynn : yeah . i mean , i think you have potential . you just need help bringing it out a bit . nikolas : okay . we will consider this date , uh , an experiment . if nothing disastrous happens , i do n't throw a fit , wallow in my misery , or talk to dead people all night , we 'll see what happens next . brook lynn : okay . works for me . you are n't going to jump back ? nikolas : not yet , anyway . [ scene_break ] sam : well , when i was pregnant with sonny 's child , he had n't yet been diagnosed . molly : right . well , what if you had known he had bipolar disorder ? according to my research , it 's hereditary . how would you have felt ? sam : well , i do n't know . it has n't really crossed my mind , but i guess i would have been really worried . but it does n't matter , because i would have loved my daughter no matter what . molly : you would have been a wonderful mother , sam . sam : well , thank you , molly . that means a lot coming from you . molly : if your daughter had been born and she was bipolar , it would have been hard on both of you , do n't you think ? sam : yeah , i think . but like i said , there are lots of ways for it to be treated and kept under control . molly : uncle sonny would have felt awful , too . sam : yeah . i mean , it 's hard for any parent to watch their child suffer , especially when the parent knows that they 're the one that caused it . molly : is that why you and jason do n't get married and have kids ? sam : yes , it is . [ scene_break ] [ sonny sighs ] claire : rolling in a little late this morning ? sonny : i got held up . there was a -- i do n't know , something on the road . claire : well , never mind . i have a terrible habit of asking questions i do n't want the answer to . the contracts for the distillery purchase require your signature . sonny : yeah , right . um ... uh ... where is it that you need me to ... claire : here . sonny : yeah . claire : and here . sonny : okay . so , uh , permit violations for my coffee delivery trucks , i mean , it seems a little ... claire : yeah , it 's not , uh , exactly earth - shattering , i know , but it 's the extent of your business diane has entrusted me with for now . sonny : i like your -- i like your shirt . uh , so , um , you 're -- okay . claire : yes ? sonny : you know , yesterday i told you about the , you know , setting a date for the wedding , right ? and then you -- you come here today . you did n't send a messenger . not -- i mean , it 's fine . claire : well , maybe i 'm trying to prove i can handle it . sonny : you do n't have to prove anything . claire : i accepted a job in the law firm that represents you . you are by far their biggest client , and i 've never been one to avoid what 's staring me in the face , ergo , my personal visit . sonny : that cut and dried ? claire : you 're getting married . not much gray area there . sonny : yes . but what i 'm saying is if ... you do n't have to go the extra mile for me , because i feel bad that i ca n't give you anything in return . [ scene_break ] maxie : so , did dante cheat on you ? because if he had an affair with brenda like 3 years ago , technically that 's not cheating . that 's before you guys met . unless , you know , they slept together recently . lulu : no , maxie , i do n't know . he 's obviously still hung up on her . maxie : brenda 's engaged to sonny . so it 's not like she 's really a threat . lulu : yeah , but dante made a huge sacrifice for her , and it could have cost him his job . but he cared so much about brenda , he still did it anyway . maxie : yuck . lulu : yeah , and he obviously still cares about her . maxie : look , maybe he did n't tell you because he did n't want to hurt you . let 's face it , when it comes to relationships , men are total cowards , and the longer he waited , the harder it was to tell you . lulu : whose side are you on ? maxie : yours . but i 'm just saying , if you guys are really over , you 're gon na be miserable . lulu : i did not fall in love with this dante . the dante that i fell in love with was the dante that i wanted him to be . maxie : i disagree with you . i think dante 's one of those people who generally tries to do the right thing . even if he does n't always succeed . and i 'm not trying to downplay whatever it is that he did to hurt your feelings , i 'm just -- i 'm saying i 've had a lot of experience when it comes to creeps and users , and i do n't think he 's one of them . lulu : maxie , none of this matters if you do n't have trust . it does n't matter . maxie : you could try forgiveness . lulu : i -- it 's too late . maxie : is it ? or have you reverted back to some stupid idea that all spencers are doomed when it comes to love ? [ scene_break ] dante : you know , i wanted to tell her . i wanted to tell lulu about me and brenda , but i figured what good would that do ? and then what do i do next ? i tell you . i have no problem telling my brother , confiding in him that i got feelings for brenda , but the woman i 'm trying to build a healthy relationship with , no way . michael : dante , all that stuff , it 's easier to see in hindsight . dante : you know what the worst part is ? i made her think -- i messed with her head . i made her think she ca n't even trust her own instincts . that 's one of the qualities i 've loved most about her is her perceptiveness . michael : do you mind if i ask how she found out ? dante : she found out from someone else . now she thinks i 'm hiding who knows what . michael : i ca n't say i blame her . dante : i know it was wrong to keep secrets . this was n't about her . these were promises i made to brenda . i love lulu . i love her more than i ever have . nothing 's ever changed . michael : for you , but for lulu -- dante : no , i have to fix this . i got ta find a way to turn it around and get her back . [ scene_break ] theo : the goal , of course , is to get a postponement on the wrongful death suit against brenda barrett and dante falconeri . but i am far from optimistic . diane : tch . huh . you know , theo , sometimes i just hate being right . theo : i take it there has been some unfortunate development ? diane : one of our associates , claire walsh , just dropped off some material to sonny corinthos , in person . she did n't use a messenger . theo : i fail to see the cause for concern . diane : yes , well . ahem . since you 're going to be working out of this office for a while , you should know that sonny and claire had a relationship . more to the point , claire put her career at the justice department on the line to have a disastrous affair with sonny . which is why she is now working back in the private sector . claire has a brilliant legal mind , she 's tenacious as a pit bull , but it all goes out the window when it comes to sonny corinthos . theo : is n't it all a bit irrelevant now that sonny is engaged to brenda barrett ? diane : yeah , you 'd think so . except claire is inventing excuses to be around him . she 's behaving like a lovesick schoolgirl . and that is very bad for business . [ scene_break ] sonny : sorry about yesterday , jason and brenda walking in ... claire : brenda 's your fiancée . i 'm sure i 'll be seeing her often . sonny : yeah , i just do n't want to , you know , put you in that position . claire : well , they were obviously here for some urgent reason . sonny : brenda 's still a target , and things get tense . claire : well , if you need my help , let me know . sonny : i do n't want you getting involved . claire : sonny , my days as a federal prosecutor are over , so there 's no conflict of interest here , either professional or personal . i 'm on your side . sonny : thanks . jason wants to postpone the wedding . brenda wants to go ahead . so do i . claire : well , you 're not concerned that brenda could be vulnerable at the wedding ? sonny : we have tight security all over . whatever it takes , you know . we 've waited too long .

i 'm sorry . i ca n't release patient information to a non - relative . tracy : well , mr. diamond may not be family , but alice gunderson is , and she 's dying . she needs a new heart . and if that brain - dead criminal is a match , he can supply her one . elizabeth : i understand the urgency of the situation . however , the rules are very clear . tracy : i am not asking for a full medical report . i just want to know his blood type so i know whether or not to pursue this . elizabeth : even if hipaa allowed me to disclose that information , mr. diamond 's test results are not back yet . tracy : oh . well , when might that be ? brad : webber , where do you want the labs on that mickey diamond guy ? ava : first your mysterious boss has lucas shot . then he delivers a bomb to alexis ' house . if he keeps trying , third time might be the charm . julian : there wo n't be a third time . ava : still ... you need to be careful . julian : do you have something constructive to add ? otherwise , i 'm busy . ava : just trying to help . julian : is that how you describe the message you left me last night -- that i should n't be a hero because i 'm all that stands between you and sonny 's bullet ? ava : i 'm concerned for you , julian . as it happens , i 'm concerned for me , too . julian : i have this under control . mickey wo n't be an issue . ava : what does that mean ? julian : you know , for a woman with a price on her head , you sure do ask a lot of questions . why do n't you just concentrate on keeping yourself alive ? ava : believe me -- it 's all i think about . julian : well , then , you should worry about getting a copy of that recording that proves sonny murdered aj quartermaine . franco : i do n't know what you 're talking about . i was here last night . carly : hey , you left the hotel long before i did . you said you were coming home . somehow , i beat you here ? franco : you 're right . that 's weird . coffee ? josslyn said she ate all the cereal . carly : why are you avoiding the question ? ava : i know that carly found that recording that aj made the night he died . franco : right -- the one that proves that you killed connie falconeri ? that one ? ava : i am much more interested in the part of the recording when sonny killed aj franco : yeah , i bet that you are . ava : i need that recording . carly : where were you last night ? ava : i 'm exploring a means of getting a copy of that recording . julian : well , explore faster . i 've gotten used to living here alone . my patience for cohabitation is wearing thin . ava : must you be so petty ? we 're on the same side . julian : only when it 's convenient for you . ava : this will work to your advantage , as well , julian . julian : it has n't so far . you already betrayed me once . ava : i apologized . julian : and you think that was enough ? you think i 'd welcome the prodigal 's return now that you 're out of friends and sonny 's painted a big red target on your back ? [ sighs ] you had your chance , ava . you screwed me over to cozy up to corinthos , father and son , so you can forget about this sibling bond . you 're a means to an end -- nothing more . ava : thanks for clarifying . excuse me . i have work to do . anna : so , i 'm running this mickey diamond investigation , but i ca n't be in two places at once , and i need to be certain that west and his task force are doing everything possible to locate spencer . dante : look , we 're gon na find this kid . remember what he did at the nurses ' ball ? he 's larger than life . he ca n't hide for very long . anna : god , i hope you 're right -- for his sake and his father 's . dante : so , what the hell happened here ? why -- why are you running the show ? anna : because of julian jerome . luke : are n't you a sight for sore eyes ? julian : wish i could say the same . luke : [ chuckles ] tracy : who says the g.h . lab ca n't be efficient and prompt on occasion ? brad : whoa ! watch the hands , grabby ! tracy : can i see that ? elizabeth : come on , tracy . those are private medical records . tracy : i am on the board . i can have the two of you dismissed with one word -- with prejudice . brad : you want to look at these labs ? take it up with boss lady . tracy : she 's behind closed doors with the hospital attorneys dealing with the fallout from that teenage druggie 's death . brad : you did not just say that . tracy : oh , i am so sorry if i 'm less than tactful . i 'm saving a good friend 's life . elizabeth : okay , look -- i might be able to get dr. obrecht a message . if you would like to go wait in her office , you 're more than welcome to do that , or go sit with alice in her room . either way , i will come find you when i hear something . does that sound reasonable ? tracy : you know , there was a time when the quartermaine name meant something . clearly , that is no longer the case and i will be forced to wait for that foolish woman to make time to see me . elizabeth : well -- tracy : next time , save me the trouble and give me what i want ! dante : is jordan 's cover blown ? anna : it would have been if mickey had survived , but before he could expose jordan , julian arrived and shot him . dante : in retaliation for bombing alexis ' house ? nina : well , yeah . i mean , we 're facilitating the story that jordan shot mickey in self - defense to preserve her cover . otherwise , i 'd be forced to arrest julian . dante : that 's great . is n't that what you want ? anna : yeah , so badly , i can taste it -- but not until we have his boss . dante : okay . well , i 'll help any way i can , even if it means i have to botch someone else 's miranda rights . anna : i 'm hoping that we can pull this off without fabricating any other black marks against your record . but list -- jordan spoke to julian 's boss on the phone . dante : did she get anything ? anna : she thinks she recognized his voice -- luke spencer . luke : julian jerome . mm - mm - mm - mmm . it 's been a dog 's age . ca n't you at least roll over , maybe do a little happy bark for your benevolent master ? julian : after you had alexis ' house bombed ? luke : did i ? julian : you know , maybe you 'd like a taste of your own medicine . i can burn down your whole operation . luke : and burn yourself beyond recognition . spare me the moral outrage . you knew damn well there would be consequences when you refused to be a team player . julian : you never told me what you were doing with the drugs . luke : i did you a favor , jerome . with your delicate sensibilities , you did n't really want to know , now , did you ? julian : you nearly killed alexis and my grandson . luke : no one was hurt . you 're making a big deal out of nothing . and there was no reason for you to turn around and whack poor old mickey . carly : i get anxious when people i care about say they 'll end up in one place and then they 're not there and they do n't call and they do n't text and -- franco : you 're right , and i 'm soy . i just -- i ran into a friend . that 's all . carly : you do n't have any friends . franco : yeah , i do . i have lots of friends . carly : name one . franco : kiki . i 'm friends with kiki . carly : okay . were you with kiki last night ? damn it , franco . i know where you were last night . britt : you do n't have to thank me for being here and helping out . i love that little kid , even though he 's acting like an outrageous brat for taking off on you like this . nikolas : it 's not his fault he ran away , okay ? it 's mine . britt : that 's not true . nikolas : i 'm his father . it 's my responsibility . i 've always known that he 's been emotional , but i just dismissed it as a flair for the dramatic . if had been paying closer attention , if i had taken him seriously , i would have seen this coming and my son would be home safe right now . britt : nikolas , listen to me . you are a wonderful father . nikolas : no ! if i were a wonderful father , my son would n't have run away ! britt : spencer is a willful little kid who thinks he got his heart broken . he just took off to lick his wounds . he 'll be home soon . nikolas : we know that 's why he left , but we have no idea where he 's at right now , and it 's been days , britt . what if he 's -- what if he 's hurt , you know ? what if he 's fallen and he 's trapped and he 's calling out and no one can hear him ? britt : but he 's not ! he 'll be home before you know it ! nikolas : how can you be so certain of that ? i do n't -- britt : i just am . josslyn : i love corn puffs . no day can begin without a bowl . delicious , right ? spencer : [ muffled ] i could n't agree more . spencer : have you got any muesli ? josslyn : what 's that ? spencer : [ sighs ] just something they serve for breakfast in europe . josslyn : next time you need to hide out from your dad , go to europe instead . spencer : hey , i was n't complaining . i 'm deeply grateful to you for taking me in . josslyn : you mean hiding you out ? spencer : [ sighs ] i hope i 'm not imposing . josslyn : you 're just lucky my mom 's distracted by her loser boyfriend , or she would have found you already . spencer : how long will she stay distracted ? josslyn : hard to say . there are a lot of people in this house . someone 's gon na find you eventually . plus , what about your dad ? is n't he worried about you ? spencer : i hope so . the more worried he is , the closer he 'll get to britt . nikolas : i 'm sorry . i ca n't keep leaning you like this . i 'm sorry . britt : it 's okay . nikolas : no . it 's -- i 'm not helping spencer by wringing my hands here . i - i - i need to find out what anna and the police are doing to track him down . britt : i 'll go with you . nikolas : no . please , you 'd be helping me more if you stayed here in case he called or came back . britt : if that 's what you need . nikolas : yeah . i 'll be back soon . britt : hey , nikolas ... uh , i 'm -- i 'm so sorry for what you 're going through . you do n't deserve this . nikolas : thank you . tracy : b - positive . he 's a match ! elizabeth : that 's great news , but there are other factors -- tracy : no `` buts `` ! alice and diamond share the same blood type , and he 's got no drug use , which means he can donate his heart ! he can save alice ! elizabeth : okay , but there are other factors that need to be addressed . tracy : such as ? elizabeth : do you even know if mr. diamond is an organ donor ? dante : jordan thinks my father - in - law is the kingpin of the jordan mob ? anna : yeah . she thought she recognized his voice . dante : oh . she knows him so well , she can make that call ? anna : well , evidently , he has visited the jerome gallery on several occasions to purchase art . plus , she was at the nurses ' ball when luke sang and at those very public nuptials to tracy . dante : so what ? i mean , maybe he sounds like the guy , but there 's no proof . anna : i do n't know . jordan seemed fairly certain . dante : come on . this is luke spencer we 're talking about . he 's a con man , a scam artist . he 's never met a safe he could n't crack or a card game he could n't rig . he does n't run drugs . anna : yeah . but he was involved with the mob . dante : so what ? then he spent decades of his life running from frank smith . if he wanted to be in the business , he could knock on my father 's door and sonny would welcome him with open arms . anna : really ? i was n't aware that sonny discussed his criminal personnel with you . dante : commissioner , look -- what i 'm saying is this guy 's made a conscious decision to not be a part of organized crime . if he did n't want to work with sonny , why the hell would he go work with julian jerome ? anna : i do n't know . do you want me to run that by the d.e.a . ? yeah ? `` my lead detective , who happens to be the son of the biggest crime lord on the eastern seaboard -- he feels that luke spencer is squeaky clean . and , uh , myself , who -- you know , i was once involved with him -- i 'm also fairly impartial . `` dante : that sounds good . you should do it . anna : yeah , it 's gon na fly . look , if jordan reports this , the d.e.a . 's gon na be all over luke , and we are gon na spend time and resources tracking him when we should be going after the real target . dante : all right . so , how do you want to handle this ? anna : i want you to do us all a favor and clear luke 's name , and then we can put jordan 's theory to bed . julian : i have no idea what you 're talking about . luke : so , you 're saying you did n't know that mickey diamond was attacked in his hotel room last night , leaving him brain - dead , and that the shooter was reportedly your bitch , jordan ashford , and that the gun used was registered to you ? ! julian : would n't be the first time i had a weapon stolen used to commit a crime . luke : [ sighs ] you misdirect the cops all you want , julian . they need things like witnesses and evidence . me -- all i need is my gut and my instincts , both of which tell me that you are responsible for mickey 's sad plight . julian : well , who am i to argue with intuition , hmm ? luke : good for you . you solved your problem with mickey , but you have not solved your problem with me , and that problem is not going away , julian . franco : you know where i was last night ? carly : yeah ! you went to see michael , did n't you ? ! franco : no ! why would i go see michael ? michael ca n't stand me . carly : to tell him the same thing you tried to tell him before -- what sonny did to aj franco : carly , i promised you that i would n't tell him . carly : okay . well , i 'm sorry . you do n't have a great track record for keeping your promises , and you 've been lying to me since i came down the stairs . you wo n't tell me where you were last night , and you 're talking about some nonexistent friend , and you tried to tell michael before , so excuse me -- it 's just a natural assumption for me here . franco : okay . if i had done , would n't you already have heard about it from michael or from sonny ? carly : i 'm not asking michael or sonny ! i 'm asking you , franco ! franco : carly , i can honestly tell you that i did not see michael last night . i have not seen michael since you interrupted me in his office . carly : i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry for accusing you , but this is my family we 're talking about . it 's the most important thing to me . franco : i know that about you . carly : do you ? ! franco : yes . carly : do you ? ! because we keep having the same conversation , and you keep telling me that you understand , but i already found you in michael 's office once , and you wo n't tell me where you were last night ! franco : carly , you have nothing to worry about . i would n't tell michael . michael despises me . he would n't believe a word that came out of my mouth , especially if it had to do with sonny . carly : [ chuckles softly ] franco : come on . i mean , if i were gon na tell him something about sonny , i 'd need some proof , right ? i 'd need , like , that recording -- you know , that recording that you held on to . luke : what do you think i 'm running here -- some kind of mom - and - pop operation ? you think 'cause you got rid of mickey , my hands are tied ? you 've deluded yourself . there 's an army of mickeys waiting for me to say the word . julian : i 'll send them . and if you or one of your lackeys lay a hand on anyone else i care about , you will regret it . luke : chill out , jerome . nobody wants more blood shed . it 's bad for business , and it distracts us from the ultimate goal -- sonny corinthos ' head on a spike . julian : so , uh , are you asking for a truce ? luke : i might be receptive , given the right inspiration and motivation . julian : such as ? luke : before mickey 's untimely brain - death , he informed me that you have come in to some information about sonny corinthos -- some information that could be very helpful to me -- a magic bullet , if you will . you share that information with me ... you got your truce . carly : what do you mean ? franco : aj 's phone recording -- the one your oddball friend spinelli -- he cleaned up the audio for . he e - mailed you a copy -- right ? -- in case something happened to the flash drive . carly : no , i know what you 're talking about . i just do n't know why you 're talking about it . franco : well , a recording like that -- having it out there -- it seems kind of dangerous to me . i mean , what if it found its way into michael 's hands . what would happen then ? i mean , i know that sonny 's not gon na give up his copy , right ? not as long as ava 's still alive . but you -- for your own safety , you should probably get rid of the copy you have , you know , assuming that you still have it . you do still have it ? tracy : what if he 's not a donor ? what do you do -- you turn off the machines and put him and his heart in the ground and alice is out of luck ? elizabeth : a family member can give permission for an organ donation . tracy : oh . well , then , i have to track down his family . do you know if that 's his real name ? elizabeth : however , if mr. diamond opted to be a donor , we do n't have to go through his family . tracy : well , that 's on his driver 's license . that must be here in the hospital somewhere . elizabeth : i can check , but given the situation , i 'm gon na bet all of his belongings are with the police . dante : someone looking for a cop ? nikolas : i was told i 'd find you here . anna : oh . i 'm dealing with a crime scene . nikolas : yes , i was told that , too . what no one could tell me is why you 're not out looking for my son . explain to me , commissioner , how can the shooting of an organized crime figure take precedence over the recovery of a little boy ? spencer : too bad your mom could n't meet someone great like my mom met britt . she 's smart , funny , and way better at sports than cam 's mom . josslyn : you do n't like cam 's mom ? spencer : well ... my dad and cam 's mom end up married , i 'll be forced to be brothers with that townie and aiden , too . well , he 's not much trouble , but still -- if i ca n't have ben , i do n't want a brother at all . josslyn : i have two brothers , and they 're awesome . but they 're older than me . i do n't know if i 'd want a little brother . spencer : what i really want is a mom . josslyn : you do n't have a mom ? spencer : well , i did , but she died when i was born . josslyn : that 's not fair . spencer : not fair at all . she was the best person ever , but i never got to meet her . see ? josslyn : she 's beautiful . do you know what she was like ? spencer : no . every time i ask my dad about her , he gets really sad , so i just stopped asking . i want my dad to be happy . he would be with britt . he just has to give her a chance . nikolas : so , what exactly is the p.c.p.d . doing to find my son ? anna : i have redirected every available officer towards the task force that 's searching for him . nikolas : then why are your people in there investigating the attack on some lowlife ? anna : but they 're c.s.u . techs . they 're collecting evidence . look , in regards to your son , the first thing i did when i got here to the hotel was i went over the footage that we had , you know , on the cab that picked him up . nikolas : and ? anna : unfortunately , we ca n't make an i.d . but we 're trying to clean up the footage , and , hopefully , we 'll get a lead , but i ca n't -- nikolas : you 're trying to clean up the footage ? hopefully , you 're gon na get a lead ? what actions are you taking in the meantime ? anna : detective west is heading up a task force that is coordinating with the city 's agencies . we have spencer 's photographs in all the public buildings , and we are conducting an exhaustive search . nikolas : you 're getting nowhere ! you 've got nothing ! britt westbourne is accomplishing more than your police department . brad : let me get this straight -- you 're playing marvel team - up with an 8-year - old to snag nikolas ? britt : okay , i do n't know what marvel team - up is , but , yes , spencer and i are working together . brad : [ chuckles ] britt : oh , i 'm so glad you 're amused . brad : that is one ballsy move -- making a fake runaway of spencer , enlisting your mom to keep elizabeth underwater at work while nikolas cries on your supportive shoulder . then , at a moment of maximum payoff , you find spencer , nikolas is so grateful , he gives elizabeth the old heave - ho , and -- boom ! -- you and the prince are reunited , and it feels so good . genius . britt : i know . brad : why are you so miserable ? britt : because i ca n't stand what it 's doing to nikolas . i have to tell him the truth . dante : i 'm not involved in the shooting investigation directly , so i do n't know if the p.c.p.d . has mr. diamond 's driver 's license or if it 's still here at the hospital . elizabeth : i will check with the nurse who admitted him . he should know what happened to mr. diamond 's things . tracy : good . you do that . elizabeth : i just spoke with nikolas a little while ago . is there really no lead on spencer ? dante : not yet . anna : with all due respect , nikolas , i am the police commissioner of port charles . that means my duty is to all the people in this city , not just one father , no matter how terrified you are . nikolas : my son is lost . do you understand ? he could be injured , or worse , he could have been taken for ransom . i do a lot of business overseas . in a lot of countries , kidnapping is a lucrative enterprise . if a professional has him , he could be on the other side of the country by now ! anna : do you have any reason to believe that he has been kidnapped ? nikolas : no . anna : has anyone contacted you ? nikolas : no . anna : then we are going to focus our efforts on finding a runaway . now , spencer is a very resourceful kid , but he has a limited skill set , so that 's why i believe that he 's taken refuge in a public building somewhere , so we are focusing all of our attention on the museums and -- nikolas : what if that is n't enough ? anna : i know you 're scared , believe me . i will keep you up to date on every step of the way . but we 're not going to accomplish anything here , nikolas . nikolas : i - i could retrace his steps again . anna : no . nikolas : anything . anna : the best thing you can dos probably the hardest , which is you need to just go home and wait . nikolas : but spencer 's all i 've got . i ca n't lose him . anna : i 've been where you are . i understand the panic and the desperation . but you can not let it get the better of you . nikolas : i 'm trying not to . anna : less than a year ago , you brought my daughter back to me . i promise you i am not going to rest until i can return the favor . josslyn : i ca n't believe you 're gon na miss the big water war at camp today . spencer : i had a strategy all prepared -- concentrate your fire on the ones who want to stay dry . they 'll run as soon as the first water balloon hits . josslyn : they 're all gon na hide by the crafts table . i 'm gon na come in from the left flank and drench them . spencer : sounds like fun . josslyn : not too late to join me . spencer : i ca n't . i have to keep my eye on the prize . josslyn : i hope it works out and that you get the mom you want . brad : you want to tell nikolas the truth now , when your diabolical plan 's finally getting someplace ? sheesh ! talk about snatching defeat from the jaws of victory ! britt : yeah , because my plan is working too well . nikolas is in agony . i remember when my mother took ben , how i felt . i could n't sleep . i could barely breathe . now i am putting the man i supposedly love through the exact same hell ? why did i think this was a good idea ? brad : i ... do n't know what to tell you . britt : how 'bout taking some responsibility ? brad : me ? what did i do ? britt : it was your bright idea to revert to the britch . you said it was the way back in to nikolas ' heart . brad : no one twisted your arm , all right ? and , for the record , having spencer run away -- not my idea . britt : [ sighs ] i know . brad : [ sighs ] [ sighs ] if you really feel that bad , just go with your first impulse . tell nikolas the truth . britt : yeah , and give up on any hope for a reunion ? brad : you have to decide . how long can you torture nikolas in the name of getting him back ? britt : [ sighs ] i do n't know what to do . brad : to britch or not to britch -- that is the question . carly : well , of course i still have the recording . i have it locked in my e - mail . i mean , it 's ava confessing to killing connie . there 's no way i 'm giving up an insurance policy like that . franco : right . that -- that 'd be crazy . carly : yeah . wait . why are we even talking about this ? ava : you get me a copy of the recording , and i can remove sonny as an obstacle in your relationship . franco : i do n't know . i do n't -- i do n't remember . carly : i do remember . yeah . it started when i asked you where you were last night , and you still have n't answered that question . so , let 's try again . franco : [ sighs ] carly : okay ? where did you go after you left the hotel ? franco : i went to see nina . i just popped in . carly : nina clay ? franco : yeah . carly : from art therapy ? franco : and i did n't mention it to you 'cause the last time her name came up , you got jealous , and i did n't -- carly : i was n't jealous . franco : look , my mistake . i should have told you . so , there 's no cereal , but i 'm pretty sure there 's bread , and i do make good toast . i 'll make you breakfast . dante : look , i know you 're worried about alice , but i need to talk to luke . did he come back with you ? tracy : no . dante : is he aware of the situation with alice ? i mean , as far as i knew , he considers her a friend , right ? tracy : obviously , you 're not aware of what 's going on . dante : no . aware of what ? tracy : i have been avoiding having this conversation with lulu , but i guess there 's no point in hiding it . i ended things with luke . i 've had our marriage annulled . dante : i 'm -- i 'm sorry . i had no idea . i mean , the last lulu and i heard was that you guys were on an extended honeymoon and -- tracy : well , things deteriorated rapidly . details are personal . i do n't want to go into it . dante : look , i still need to talk to luke , though . do you know where i could find him ? tracy : oddly enough , i do n't keep track of his whereabouts . dante : okay . thanks for the update . tracy : however , um ... he has been known to make contact . he considers me his own personal atm . so , he will probably be hitting me up for money sooner or later . if he does ... is there a message i can give him ? dante : just , uh , tell him to call me as soon as he can . luke : give me this allegedly juicy bit of information about sonny -- all is forgiven . julian : not on your life . luke : is there something wrong with the video conference ? i could n't possibly have heard you say , `` not on your life . `` julian : [ sighs ] if i give up the information on sonny , you may decide i 'm more trouble than i 'm worth , so i 'll be keeping that information to myself -- for now . luke : you wormy slab of maggot food . julian : and you 'll stop lacing the product with heroin , effective immediately . luke : you do n't give the orders , julian . julian : new day , new terms , new me . so , if you want what i have on corinthos , you 'll start treating me as an equal partner . when i 'm reasonably satisfied that you 've learned your place , i 'll consider giving you the means to annihilate corinthos . comprende ? luke : you 're making a very grave mistake . julian : well , i guess we 'll see about that , wo n't we ? peace out , bitch ! [ computer beeps ] josslyn : this is the lion . he shot his son , the bear . but that 's because he did n't know that he was his son . spencer : how could he not know ? josslyn : the bear 's mom did n't tell either of them . spencer : why not ? josslyn : it 's complicated . but the bear survives , and now he wants to arrest the lion , even though he really likes him . spencer : [ scoffs ] god . your stuffed animals are bizarre . josslyn : so is my family . carly : josslyn john jacks , get down here right now or i 'm leaving without you ! josslyn : [ sighs ] spencer : [ laughing ] your middle name is john ? josslyn : what 's yours ? spencer : stefan nikolaevich . josslyn : [ laughing ] then you 've got no room to criticize . carly : josslyn , i mean it ! josslyn : i 'm coming ! i have to go . whatever you do , stay here . carly : hey , do you think you could take josslyn to camp ? i have a staff meeting i forgot about . i 'm gon na be late . franco : i do n't think that 's a good idea . josslyn and i together on a long car ride ? carly : it 's not a long car ride -- 10 minutes , tops . franco : i do n't know what we would talk about . i do n't know anything about corn . carly : she 's outgrowing that . josslyn : i 'm waiting . carly : you 're gon na continue to wait until i 'm ready . lose the attitude or there 's no speedboat . josslyn : we can leave whenever you 're ready , mom . carly : mm - hmm . hey . keep up the good work . franco : thank you . i will . carly : bye . franco : bye . carly : come on . franco : have fun at camp , joss . tracy : luke , i just had the most unsettling conversation with your son - in - law . dante is looking for you , and i get the distinct impression it 's over something official . get in touch soon . well ? did your friend in admitting have anything to offer ? elizabeth : yes . i - i was able to locate mr. diamond 's driver 's license , and ... tracy : is he an organ donor ? elizabeth : he 's not . tracy : [ sighs ] britt : [ sighs ] just once -- just ... nikolas : what 's brad doing here ? brad : not that i do n't understand the hostility , but i did n't break in here . britt : i asked brad to come . i - i needed to talk to him about something . and now i need to talk to you . nikolas : what about ? britt : bringing spencer home . franco : alone at last . ava : julian ? anna : were you able to speak to luke ? dante : uh , no -- tracy . did you know that they had their marriage annulled ? anna : oh , my god . already ? dante : yeah . she would n't get into details -- said it was personal -- but she was very clear the marriage is over and she has no idea where luke is . anna : well , someone must . luke : having second thoughts , are we ? julian ? julian , enable the video . ava : i 'm not julian . | ava reads in the paper about the fire at alexis ' house . julian tells her that a bomb caused it and that it was a message from mickey diamond . julian wants ava to find the tape proving sonny shot aj . carly wants to know where franco was last night . she assumes he went to michael again to rat out sonny . he says he did n't and that anyway , michael hates him and would n't believe him without proof , like that recording . he says if she has a copy of the recording , she should get rid of it before someone , like michael , hears it . she reveals that it 's locked in her email and that she is never giving it up . she asks him again where he was last night . he says he went to visit nina clay . spencer is hiding out with josslyn at carly 's house . spencer tells josslyn that he wants a mother and that he wishes his dad would marry britt . britt tells brad that what her scheme with spencer is doing to nikolas is killing her and that she wants to tell him the truth . when she goes out , franco opens carly 's laptop . spencer watches him from the staircase . | <s>[INST] franco : is that for me ? that 's thoughtful . josslyn : get your own , greedy . franco : right . i 'm greedy . you have two bowls of cereal . josslyn : and i need them both . franco : fine . like i ca n't pour my own cereal . josslyn : you could ... if there was any left . hey , mom ! carly : hey , baby . hey . franco : hey . carly : what are you up to ? franco : me ? quietly starving to death . carly : huh . franco : what ? carly : `` what ? `` what happened to you last night ? ava : i 'm reading that alexis ' house burned down last night . is everybody all right ? julian : well , alexis and her daughters lost their home , so `` all right `` would be stretching it , but no one was hurt . ava : and according to your paper , an unnamed source inside the p.c.p.d . claims that the fire may have been caused by a bomb . julian : no `` maybe `` about it . there was a bomb -- a message from mickey diamond . anna : all right . all findings -- evidence , prints , test results -- they all come to me directly . no copies are to be sent to any other parties without my direct permission . are we clear ? yeah ? okay . get to it . thanks . dante : hey . dispatch said you wanted to see me ? anna : i need to talk to you about something . first , i want to know where are detective west and the task force in searching for spencer cassadine . dante : we got people at the airport , the train station , the bus depot , though i do n't think this kid 's gon na be riding a bus . anna : well , good point , but better to err on the side of caution . dante : yeah . also checking out malls , parks -- you know , usual places a kid might hide out . anna : spencer 's not a usual kid . where 's he gone to ? nikolas : thank you for asking , but there 's nothing new to report . elizabeth : well , i would have called the house earlier , but i thought you 'd still be out searching . nikolas : i was -- all night long . i searched every room in the house , every tunnel in the catacombs , the stables , the rest of the island . there 's no sign that spencer ever came back . elizabeth : okay , nikolas . you should n't be dealing with this alone . i 'm gon na get somebody to cover for me , and i 'll be there in 20 minutes , okay ? it 's okay . there 's -- there 's nothing that you can do . and it 's all right . i 'm not alone . britt 's here . britt : spencer , it 's britt . spencer : hi , britt . britt : hi . how are you ? are -- are you okay ? spencer : i 'm great ! what about you ? are you back together with my dad yet ? britt : no . uh , not yet . that 's gon na take some time . spencer : what 's the holdup ? i ca n't hide forever . britt : i know . spencer : i do n't think you do know . i miss my stuff . i miss my pony and my driver . i even miss alfred ignoring all my orders . most of all , i miss my dad . britt : he misses you , too . spencer : i 'm making sacrifices here . you need to take advantage of this time . britt : do n't you think i know that ? i 'm doing the best i can , so do n't boss me around . nikolas : britt ? who are you talking to ? nikolas : britt ... who are you on the phone with ? britt : my brother , uh , nathan -- detective west . nikolas : of course . it 's just you sounded a little harsh on the phone . you always speak to him that way ? britt : guess i 've taken to the role of big sister faster than i thought . i 'm wound pretty tight about spencer , and i - i unloaded on nathan because he has n't done enough to find him . nikolas : thank you . thank you for fighting for my son . britt : oh , i 'm not sure an irrational attack on my brother qualifies as fighting for spencer , but -- nikolas : no . you 've been here all night , basically holding me together , and it really does mean everything to me . i do n't know what i would do without you right now . tracy : elizabeth , i need a word . i already spoke to , uh , nurse dubois , but he was clueless . elizabeth : well , if felix could n't help you , i doubt i 'll be able to . tracy : i need the bloodwork on a criminal that was admitted last night . elizabeth : mr. diamond ? i 'm sorry . i ca n't release patient information to a non - relative . tracy : well , mr. diamond may not be family , but alice gunderson is , and she 's dying . she needs a new heart . and if that brain - dead criminal is a match , he can supply her one . elizabeth : i understand the urgency of the situation . however , the rules are very clear . tracy : i am not asking for a full medical report . i just want to know his blood type so i know whether or not to pursue this . elizabeth : even if hipaa allowed me to disclose that information , mr. diamond 's test results are not back yet . tracy : oh . well , when might that be ? brad : webber , where do you want the labs on that mickey diamond guy ? ava : first your mysterious boss has lucas shot . then he delivers a bomb to alexis ' house . if he keeps trying , third time might be the charm . julian : there wo n't be a third time . ava : still ... you need to be careful . julian : do you have something constructive to add ? otherwise , i 'm busy . ava : just trying to help . julian : is that how you describe the message you left me last night -- that i should n't be a hero because i 'm all that stands between you and sonny 's bullet ? ava : i 'm concerned for you , julian . as it happens , i 'm concerned for me , too . julian : i have this under control . mickey wo n't be an issue . ava : what does that mean ? julian : you know , for a woman with a price on her head , you sure do ask a lot of questions . why do n't you just concentrate on keeping yourself alive ? ava : believe me -- it 's all i think about . julian : well , then , you should worry about getting a copy of that recording that proves sonny murdered aj quartermaine . franco : i do n't know what you 're talking about . i was here last night . carly : hey , you left the hotel long before i did . you said you were coming home . somehow , i beat you here ? franco : you 're right . that 's weird . coffee ? josslyn said she ate all the cereal . carly : why are you avoiding the question ? ava : i know that carly found that recording that aj made the night he died . franco : right -- the one that proves that you killed connie falconeri ? that one ? ava : i am much more interested in the part of the recording when sonny killed aj franco : yeah , i bet that you are . ava : i need that recording . carly : where were you last night ? ava : i 'm exploring a means of getting a copy of that recording . julian : well , explore faster . i 've gotten used to living here alone . my patience for cohabitation is wearing thin . ava : must you be so petty ? we 're on the same side . julian : only when it 's convenient for you . ava : this will work to your advantage , as well , julian . julian : it has n't so far . you already betrayed me once . ava : i apologized . julian : and you think that was enough ? you think i 'd welcome the prodigal 's return now that you 're out of friends and sonny 's painted a big red target on your back ? [ sighs ] you had your chance , ava . you screwed me over to cozy up to corinthos , father and son , so you can forget about this sibling bond . you 're a means to an end -- nothing more . ava : thanks for clarifying . excuse me . i have work to do . anna : so , i 'm running this mickey diamond investigation , but i ca n't be in two places at once , and i need to be certain that west and his task force are doing everything possible to locate spencer . dante : look , we 're gon na find this kid . remember what he did at the nurses ' ball ? he 's larger than life . he ca n't hide for very long . anna : god , i hope you 're right -- for his sake and his father 's . dante : so , what the hell happened here ? why -- why are you running the show ? anna : because of julian jerome . luke : are n't you a sight for sore eyes ? julian : wish i could say the same . luke : [ chuckles ] tracy : who says the g.h . lab ca n't be efficient and prompt on occasion ? brad : whoa ! watch the hands , grabby ! tracy : can i see that ? elizabeth : come on , tracy . those are private medical records . tracy : i am on the board . i can have the two of you dismissed with one word -- with prejudice . brad : you want to look at these labs ? take it up with boss lady . tracy : she 's behind closed doors with the hospital attorneys dealing with the fallout from that teenage druggie 's death . brad : you did not just say that . tracy : oh , i am so sorry if i 'm less than tactful . i 'm saving a good friend 's life . elizabeth : okay , look -- i might be able to get dr. obrecht a message . if you would like to go wait in her office , you 're more than welcome to do that , or go sit with alice in her room . either way , i will come find you when i hear something . does that sound reasonable ? tracy : you know , there was a time when the quartermaine name meant something . clearly , that is no longer the case and i will be forced to wait for that foolish woman to make time to see me . elizabeth : well -- tracy : next time , save me the trouble and give me what i want ! dante : is jordan 's cover blown ? anna : it would have been if mickey had survived , but before he could expose jordan , julian arrived and shot him . dante : in retaliation for bombing alexis ' house ? nina : well , yeah . i mean , we 're facilitating the story that jordan shot mickey in self - defense to preserve her cover . otherwise , i 'd be forced to arrest julian . dante : that 's great . is n't that what you want ? anna : yeah , so badly , i can taste it -- but not until we have his boss . dante : okay . well , i 'll help any way i can , even if it means i have to botch someone else 's miranda rights . anna : i 'm hoping that we can pull this off without fabricating any other black marks against your record . but list -- jordan spoke to julian 's boss on the phone . dante : did she get anything ? anna : she thinks she recognized his voice -- luke spencer . luke : julian jerome . mm - mm - mm - mmm . it 's been a dog 's age . ca n't you at least roll over , maybe do a little happy bark for your benevolent master ? julian : after you had alexis ' house bombed ? luke : did i ? julian : you know , maybe you 'd like a taste of your own medicine . i can burn down your whole operation . luke : and burn yourself beyond recognition . spare me the moral outrage . you knew damn well there would be consequences when you refused to be a team player . julian : you never told me what you were doing with the drugs . luke : i did you a favor , jerome . with your delicate sensibilities , you did n't really want to know , now , did you ? julian : you nearly killed alexis and my grandson . luke : no one was hurt . you 're making a big deal out of nothing . and there was no reason for you to turn around and whack poor old mickey . carly : i get anxious when people i care about say they 'll end up in one place and then they 're not there and they do n't call and they do n't text and -- franco : you 're right , and i 'm soy . i just -- i ran into a friend . that 's all . carly : you do n't have any friends . franco : yeah , i do . i have lots of friends . carly : name one . franco : kiki . i 'm friends with kiki . carly : okay . were you with kiki last night ? damn it , franco . i know where you were last night . britt : you do n't have to thank me for being here and helping out . i love that little kid , even though he 's acting like an outrageous brat for taking off on you like this . nikolas : it 's not his fault he ran away , okay ? it 's mine . britt : that 's not true . nikolas : i 'm his father . it 's my responsibility . i 've always known that he 's been emotional , but i just dismissed it as a flair for the dramatic . if had been paying closer attention , if i had taken him seriously , i would have seen this coming and my son would be home safe right now . britt : nikolas , listen to me . you are a wonderful father . nikolas : no ! if i were a wonderful father , my son would n't have run away ! britt : spencer is a willful little kid who thinks he got his heart broken . he just took off to lick his wounds . he 'll be home soon . nikolas : we know that 's why he left , but we have no idea where he 's at right now , and it 's been days , britt . what if he 's -- what if he 's hurt , you know ? what if he 's fallen and he 's trapped and he 's calling out and no one can hear him ? britt : but he 's not ! he 'll be home before you know it ! nikolas : how can you be so certain of that ? i do n't -- britt : i just am . josslyn : i love corn puffs . no day can begin without a bowl . delicious , right ? spencer : [ muffled ] i could n't agree more . spencer : have you got any muesli ? josslyn : what 's that ? spencer : [ sighs ] just something they serve for breakfast in europe . josslyn : next time you need to hide out from your dad , go to europe instead . spencer : hey , i was n't complaining . i 'm deeply grateful to you for taking me in . josslyn : you mean hiding you out ? spencer : [ sighs ] i hope i 'm not imposing . josslyn : you 're just lucky my mom 's distracted by her loser boyfriend , or she would have found you already . spencer : how long will she stay distracted ? josslyn : hard to say . there are a lot of people in this house . someone 's gon na find you eventually . plus , what about your dad ? is n't he worried about you ? spencer : i hope so . the more worried he is , the closer he 'll get to britt . nikolas : i 'm sorry . i ca n't keep leaning you like this . i 'm sorry . britt : it 's okay . nikolas : no . it 's -- i 'm not helping spencer by wringing my hands here . i - i - i need to find out what anna and the police are doing to track him down . britt : i 'll go with you . nikolas : no . please , you 'd be helping me more if you stayed here in case he called or came back . britt : if that 's what you need . nikolas : yeah . i 'll be back soon . britt : hey , nikolas ... uh , i 'm -- i 'm so sorry for what you 're going through . you do n't deserve this . nikolas : thank you . tracy : b - positive . he 's a match ! elizabeth : that 's great news , but there are other factors -- tracy : no `` buts `` ! alice and diamond share the same blood type , and he 's got no drug use , which means he can donate his heart ! he can save alice ! elizabeth : okay , but there are other factors that need to be addressed . tracy : such as ? elizabeth : do you even know if mr. diamond is an organ donor ? dante : jordan thinks my father - in - law is the kingpin of the jordan mob ? anna : yeah . she thought she recognized his voice . dante : oh . she knows him so well , she can make that call ? anna : well , evidently , he has visited the jerome gallery on several occasions to purchase art . plus , she was at the nurses ' ball when luke sang and at those very public nuptials to tracy . dante : so what ? i mean , maybe he sounds like the guy , but there 's no proof . anna : i do n't know . jordan seemed fairly certain . dante : come on . this is luke spencer we 're talking about . he 's a con man , a scam artist . he 's never met a safe he could n't crack or a card game he could n't rig . he does n't run drugs . anna : yeah . but he was involved with the mob . dante : so what ? then he spent decades of his life running from frank smith . if he wanted to be in the business , he could knock on my father 's door and sonny would welcome him with open arms . anna : really ? i was n't aware that sonny discussed his criminal personnel with you . dante : commissioner , look -- what i 'm saying is this guy 's made a conscious decision to not be a part of organized crime . if he did n't want to work with sonny , why the hell would he go work with julian jerome ? anna : i do n't know . do you want me to run that by the d.e.a . ? yeah ? `` my lead detective , who happens to be the son of the biggest crime lord on the eastern seaboard -- he feels that luke spencer is squeaky clean . and , uh , myself , who -- you know , i was once involved with him -- i 'm also fairly impartial . `` dante : that sounds good . you should do it . anna : yeah , it 's gon na fly . look , if jordan reports this , the d.e.a . 's gon na be all over luke , and we are gon na spend time and resources tracking him when we should be going after the real target . dante : all right . so , how do you want to handle this ? anna : i want you to do us all a favor and clear luke 's name , and then we can put jordan 's theory to bed . julian : i have no idea what you 're talking about . luke : so , you 're saying you did n't know that mickey diamond was attacked in his hotel room last night , leaving him brain - dead , and that the shooter was reportedly your bitch , jordan ashford , and that the gun used was registered to you ? ! julian : would n't be the first time i had a weapon stolen used to commit a crime . luke : [ sighs ] you misdirect the cops all you want , julian . they need things like witnesses and evidence . me -- all i need is my gut and my instincts , both of which tell me that you are responsible for mickey 's sad plight . julian : well , who am i to argue with intuition , hmm ? luke : good for you . you solved your problem with mickey , but you have not solved your problem with me , and that problem is not going away , julian . franco : you know where i was last night ? carly : yeah ! you went to see michael , did n't you ? ! franco : no ! why would i go see michael ? michael ca n't stand me . carly : to tell him the same thing you tried to tell him before -- what sonny did to aj franco : carly , i promised you that i would n't tell him . carly : okay . well , i 'm sorry . you do n't have a great track record for keeping your promises , and you 've been lying to me since i came down the stairs . you wo n't tell me where you were last night , and you 're talking about some nonexistent friend , and you tried to tell michael before , so excuse me -- it 's just a natural assumption for me here . franco : okay . if i had done , would n't you already have heard about it from michael or from sonny ? carly : i 'm not asking michael or sonny ! i 'm asking you , franco ! franco : carly , i can honestly tell you that i did not see michael last night . i have not seen michael since you interrupted me in his office . carly : i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry for accusing you , but this is my family we 're talking about . it 's the most important thing to me . franco : i know that about you . carly : do you ? ! franco : yes . carly : do you ? ! because we keep having the same conversation , and you keep telling me that you understand , but i already found you in michael 's office once , and you wo n't tell me where you were last night ! franco : carly , you have nothing to worry about . i would n't tell michael . michael despises me . he would n't believe a word that came out of my mouth , especially if it had to do with sonny . carly : [ chuckles softly ] franco : come on . i mean , if i were gon na tell him something about sonny , i 'd need some proof , right ? i 'd need , like , that recording -- you know , that recording that you held on to . luke : what do you think i 'm running here -- some kind of mom - and - pop operation ? you think 'cause you got rid of mickey , my hands are tied ? you 've deluded yourself . there 's an army of mickeys waiting for me to say the word . julian : i 'll send them . and if you or one of your lackeys lay a hand on anyone else i care about , you will regret it . luke : chill out , jerome . nobody wants more blood shed . it 's bad for business , and it distracts us from the ultimate goal -- sonny corinthos ' head on a spike . julian : so , uh , are you asking for a truce ? luke : i might be receptive , given the right inspiration and motivation . julian : such as ? luke : before mickey 's untimely brain - death , he informed me that you have come in to some information about sonny corinthos -- some information that could be very helpful to me -- a magic bullet , if you will . you share that information with me ... you got your truce . carly : what do you mean ? franco : aj 's phone recording -- the one your oddball friend spinelli -- he cleaned up the audio for . he e - mailed you a copy -- right ? -- in case something happened to the flash drive . carly : no , i know what you 're talking about . i just do n't know why you 're talking about it . franco : well , a recording like that -- having it out there -- it seems kind of dangerous to me . i mean , what if it found its way into michael 's hands . what would happen then ? i mean , i know that sonny 's not gon na give up his copy , right ? not as long as ava 's still alive . but you -- for your own safety , you should probably get rid of the copy you have , you know , assuming that you still have it . you do still have it ? tracy : what if he 's not a donor ? what do you do -- you turn off the machines and put him and his heart in the ground and alice is out of luck ? elizabeth : a family member can give permission for an organ donation . tracy : oh . well , then , i have to track down his family . do you know if that 's his real name ? elizabeth : however , if mr. diamond opted to be a donor , we do n't have to go through his family . tracy : well , that 's on his driver 's license . that must be here in the hospital somewhere . elizabeth : i can check , but given the situation , i 'm gon na bet all of his belongings are with the police . dante : someone looking for a cop ? nikolas : i was told i 'd find you here . anna : oh . i 'm dealing with a crime scene . nikolas : yes , i was told that , too . what no one could tell me is why you 're not out looking for my son . explain to me , commissioner , how can the shooting of an organized crime figure take precedence over the recovery of a little boy ? spencer : too bad your mom could n't meet someone great like my mom met britt . she 's smart , funny , and way better at sports than cam 's mom . josslyn : you do n't like cam 's mom ? spencer : well ... my dad and cam 's mom end up married , i 'll be forced to be brothers with that townie and aiden , too . well , he 's not much trouble , but still -- if i ca n't have ben , i do n't want a brother at all . josslyn : i have two brothers , and they 're awesome . but they 're older than me . i do n't know if i 'd want a little brother . spencer : what i really want is a mom . josslyn : you do n't have a mom ? spencer : well , i did , but she died when i was born . josslyn : that 's not fair . spencer : not fair at all . she was the best person ever , but i never got to meet her . see ? josslyn : she 's beautiful . do you know what she was like ? spencer : no . every time i ask my dad about her , he gets really sad , so i just stopped asking . i want my dad to be happy . he would be with britt . he just has to give her a chance . nikolas : so , what exactly is the p.c.p.d . doing to find my son ? anna : i have redirected every available officer towards the task force that 's searching for him . nikolas : then why are your people in there investigating the attack on some lowlife ? anna : but they 're c.s.u . techs . they 're collecting evidence . look , in regards to your son , the first thing i did when i got here to the hotel was i went over the footage that we had , you know , on the cab that picked him up . nikolas : and ? anna : unfortunately , we ca n't make an i.d . but we 're trying to clean up the footage , and , hopefully , we 'll get a lead , but i ca n't -- nikolas : you 're trying to clean up the footage ? hopefully , you 're gon na get a lead ? what actions are you taking in the meantime ? anna : detective west is heading up a task force that is coordinating with the city 's agencies . we have spencer 's photographs in all the public buildings , and we are conducting an exhaustive search . nikolas : you 're getting nowhere ! you 've got nothing ! britt westbourne is accomplishing more than your police department . brad : let me get this straight -- you 're playing marvel team - up with an 8-year - old to snag nikolas ? britt : okay , i do n't know what marvel team - up is , but , yes , spencer and i are working together . brad : [ chuckles ] britt : oh , i 'm so glad you 're amused . brad : that is one ballsy move -- making a fake runaway of spencer , enlisting your mom to keep elizabeth underwater at work while nikolas cries on your supportive shoulder . then , at a moment of maximum payoff , you find spencer , nikolas is so grateful , he gives elizabeth the old heave - ho , and -- boom ! -- you and the prince are reunited , and it feels so good . genius . britt : i know . brad : why are you so miserable ? britt : because i ca n't stand what it 's doing to nikolas . i have to tell him the truth . dante : i 'm not involved in the shooting investigation directly , so i do n't know if the p.c.p.d . has mr. diamond 's driver 's license or if it 's still here at the hospital . elizabeth : i will check with the nurse who admitted him . he should know what happened to mr. diamond 's things . tracy : good . you do that . elizabeth : i just spoke with nikolas a little while ago . is there really no lead on spencer ? dante : not yet . anna : with all due respect , nikolas , i am the police commissioner of port charles . that means my duty is to all the people in this city , not just one father , no matter how terrified you are . nikolas : my son is lost . do you understand ? he could be injured , or worse , he could have been taken for ransom . i do a lot of business overseas . in a lot of countries , kidnapping is a lucrative enterprise . if a professional has him , he could be on the other side of the country by now ! anna : do you have any reason to believe that he has been kidnapped ? nikolas : no . anna : has anyone contacted you ? nikolas : no . anna : then we are going to focus our efforts on finding a runaway . now , spencer is a very resourceful kid , but he has a limited skill set , so that 's why i believe that he 's taken refuge in a public building somewhere , so we are focusing all of our attention on the museums and -- nikolas : what if that is n't enough ? anna : i know you 're scared , believe me . i will keep you up to date on every step of the way . but we 're not going to accomplish anything here , nikolas . nikolas : i - i could retrace his steps again . anna : no . nikolas : anything . anna : the best thing you can dos probably the hardest , which is you need to just go home and wait . nikolas : but spencer 's all i 've got . i ca n't lose him . anna : i 've been where you are . i understand the panic and the desperation . but you can not let it get the better of you . nikolas : i 'm trying not to . anna : less than a year ago , you brought my daughter back to me . i promise you i am not going to rest until i can return the favor . josslyn : i ca n't believe you 're gon na miss the big water war at camp today . spencer : i had a strategy all prepared -- concentrate your fire on the ones who want to stay dry . they 'll run as soon as the first water balloon hits . josslyn : they 're all gon na hide by the crafts table . i 'm gon na come in from the left flank and drench them . spencer : sounds like fun . josslyn : not too late to join me . spencer : i ca n't . i have to keep my eye on the prize . josslyn : i hope it works out and that you get the mom you want . brad : you want to tell nikolas the truth now , when your diabolical plan 's finally getting someplace ? sheesh ! talk about snatching defeat from the jaws of victory ! britt : yeah , because my plan is working too well . nikolas is in agony . i remember when my mother took ben , how i felt . i could n't sleep . i could barely breathe . now i am putting the man i supposedly love through the exact same hell ? why did i think this was a good idea ? brad : i ... do n't know what to tell you . britt : how 'bout taking some responsibility ? brad : me ? what did i do ? britt : it was your bright idea to revert to the britch . you said it was the way back in to nikolas ' heart . brad : no one twisted your arm , all right ? and , for the record , having spencer run away -- not my idea . britt : [ sighs ] i know . brad : [ sighs ] [ sighs ] if you really feel that bad , just go with your first impulse . tell nikolas the truth . britt : yeah , and give up on any hope for a reunion ?

( sighs ) so brooke 's told you everything ? nick : she wants to put it out of her mind . she wants to move on . that 's what she needs to do . i , on the other hand , have other plans . stephanie : i 'm sure . ( chuckles ) so you 've decided to ride to her rescue again . you know , that 's part of the problem . you and ridge and eric have treated her like a victim for so long . she does n't know how to react any other way . nick : she is a victim ... of rape at your hands . stephanie : that was never my intention . brooke knows that . i have apolog -- what the hell ? i do n't owe you any kind of an explanation . i thought you were still a married man with a brand - new baby . do n't you think it 's time for you to go home to your family ? nick : you know , i 've been very patient with you , but if you ever hurt brooke again , i 'll kill you .Summarize.[/INST]as they hug , brooke tells nick that the rape aftermath is over , please do not go to stephanie . that 's the reason she did not want him to know . ridge and the kids are alright ; he wo n't let stephanie hurt her , so just let it go . she states she can take care of herself . stephanie gloats to donna that eric would be the laughing stock of the town if he walked down the runway with a little tart like her . and nick never wanted the company ; she 's not the least bit concerned . she vows she will take her place in the company again , and warns donna to stay away from eric . donna ca n't wait for nick to get his hands on stephanie . eric explains to thorne and felicia that if it were n't for donna , there would be no upcoming show . their mother can not be there at the showing , and he wo n't stay in this room and be called a fool by his children . how come they ca n't understand that donna may actually care for him ? and what she does for him ; how happy he is nowadays ? he owes her everything for his new attitude , a new and improved eric forrester and if they ca n't see that .. this fashion show will be his emergence and then he will decide who he wants to spend the rest of his life with .</s> | 5,856 |

[ sighs ] but , um , is this gon na make things weird between us ? ashley : no , not if we do n't let it . besides , i 'm a grown woman . i think i can handle whatever feelings i had for him . and believe me , they were n't much . and you know what ? this is a silly conversation for us to be having , because , obviously , the two of you care for each other deeply . stitch : [ sighs ] um , dr. shelby , you have a second ? barton : not much more than that . what is it ? stitch : you prescribed migraine meds for ashley abbott . barton : ms. abbott asked you to speak to me about this ? stitch : no , she did n't . barton : then there 's nothing more for us to talk about . stitch : okay , i saw your name on the prescription bottle . i 'm just saying that -- that there might be more to her headaches than migraines -- other symptoms . barton : describe them . stitch : dizziness , slurred speech . dr. shelby , i - i think you should run some more tests . barton : well , allow me to remind you that you 're in no position to be making diagnoses , much less consult , considering you lost your privileges here at this hospital . stitch : let me remind you that i was a doctor and a damn good one . and what i have observed has me extremely concerned about ashley abbott . barton : mr. rayburn ... i 'm concerned , too , about the privacy of my patients . you do not belong here . i suggest you remember that . lily : look , i know things have been tense between us . i just have a lot of issues that i need to work through still with what 's happened with devon and hilary . cane : can you -- can you please do n't say anything else , all right ? i - i ca n't do it right now . lily : are you still angry with me ? cane : oh , baby , i 'm not angry at you , all right ? i just do n't need you to say any more . i understand , okay ? listen . i want you to listen to me . i love you . you know that , right ? you believe that i - i love you when i say that , right ? lily : yes . cane : okay . all right . lily : i do . cane : okay . okay . lily : [ chuckles ] well , maybe i should 've , uh , apologized in private . [ chuckles ] do you forgive me ? cane : there 's nothing to forgive . lily : okay . cane : okay . lily : i 'm gon na apologize to lauren , though . i need to call her . cane : no , you do n't have to call her and apologize to her . lily : no , i just want to tell her that i 'm sorry -- cane : just do n't push people . just do n't do it . [ sighs ] [ groans ] it 's not you . it 's not you . lily : then what -- what is it ? cane : it 's just me . i got a lot of stress at work right now . i 'm sorry . um , i got to go . i love you . lauren : i do n't know what you think i 've done . michael : i do n't blame you . i do n't blame you . you 're a warm , passionate woman with desires and needs . and i ca n't fulfill those needs anymore . lauren : all right . i do not want to have this conversation anymore . i love you ! do n't you get that ? michael : if that 's all there was to it , we would n't have a problem . lauren : i have told you over and over that there are many ways for us to be close . we do n't need to be physical . michael : but you do . you do . i saw you kissing cane . abby : hey . ashley : hey , how did things go at the warehouse ? stitch : it 's , uh ... fine . fine . [ cell phone rings ] ashley : excuse me . abby : are you okay ? were they mean to you at the warehouse ? stitch : [ chuckles ] barton : you should know , ms. abbott , ben rayburn just spoke to me about you . ashley : he did ? barton : yes . i did n't share anything , of course . in fact , i told him that he was n't welcome here at this hospital . ashley : what did he say ? barton : well , he raised some issues that i 'd like to discuss with you . ashley : that 's not necessary . barton : ms. abbott , i 'm concerned about your dizziness and slurring of words . i 'd like for you to stop by as soon as possible so that we may take a look at you . ashley : okay , i 'll try to stop by sometime tomorrow . would you please go get that glycerin for me that you picked up ? stitch : uh , it -- uh , it was n't quite ready . ashley : right , because you did n't go to the warehouse , did you ? abby : what 's going on ? ashley : you went to see my doctor behind my back . abby : what doctor ? stitch : okay , i saw barton . i wanted to give him the heads - up on some of your symptoms . ashley : who asked you to do that ? ! stitch : hey , i am concerned about you , ashley . ashley : well , do n't be concerned about me ! you 're involved with my daughter , not me ! be concerned about her ! paul : posing as the killer ? what the hell were you thinking ? kevin : at least she got people believing the real murderer is still out there , because he is . paul : do n't you think we already know that ? kevin : wait , what ? harding : yeah , we 're not as stupid as you look . we do n't think tobias gray is the real killer , either . paul : we never stopped investigating . our strategy all along was to make the killer be overconfident so he would make a mistake . but thanks to you , kevin , and now thanks to you , that plan is completely blown out of the water . harding : the chief told you to let us do the investigating , not you ! mariah : i 'm sorry ! i just -- kevin : i wish you would 've trusted me with that information instead of suspending me . harding : you 're blaming us ? kevin : i 'm agreeing with you . pay attention . paul , you have to keep up with this plan . instead of doing less talking to the press , why not do more ? let this guy know the pressure 's really on him . harding : these are going on you , mariah . mariah : for -- for what ? lying on the internet ? you 're gon na need more handcuffs , buddy , because they do it all -- harding : we could bring you in for interfering with a police investigation , filing a false report ... assaulting an officer . paul : harding , hold off on that . you two , do not move . harding : what 's up , chief ? paul : [ sighs ] kevin 's right . harding : god , i hate it when that happens . paul : so far , the killer has made a move every time he thought he was about to be caught . harding : so you think if he feels the walls closing in , maybe he 'll walk into a trap . paul : if we play it right . mariah : well , maybe we can get adjoining cells . kevin : were you really just gon na leave , knowing you 'd never see your friends here again ? mariah : i do n't have any friends here . kevin : you have me . does n't that count for anything ? paul : you 're both free to go . but ... mariah : [ sighs ] paul : ... you are not to involve yourself in this case from this point forward . and if you have the audacity to insert yourself into this investigation again in any way , there will be no dropping of the charges . there will be no leniency . do i make myself clear ? kevin : yes , chief . paul : get the hell out of here . [ door slams ] mariah : what just happened ? kevin : you 're still here . mariah : [ sighing ] oh , my god . kevin : come on . lauren : michael , what you saw ... michael : was n't what it looked like ? lauren : it was n't . michael : well , i think it was very clear . [ scoffs ] you needed the comfort of a real man . i understand ... better than you do , apparently . lauren : you did this . michael : no , i 'm not the one who kissed cane . lauren : no , you kept making this all about the fact that you could n't satisfy me . i did n't even realize ... michael : what are you talking about ? lauren : your cup ... in the dishwasher , and your shirts in our closet , and your scent . you took it away . michael : i understand you want to -- lauren : no , you understand that my bed is empty , because i 'm all about that ... according to you . but you took the stroking of my hair away , and the rubbing of my shoulders ... and the holding of my hand . your words ... your laughter , your footsteps ... all of your sounds , you -- you left . and you left me with nothing , not even -- not even a sliver of our marriage that i could hold on to . you -- you left me untouched ... and unloved and unwanted . and i was starving . i was starving for one look , just one look ... where you were n't rejecting me , you were n't judging me , and you were n't trying to shove me away . and you sit there in your `` i 'm the one with cancer `` arrogance , and you accuse me of kissing cane because i 'm sexual . i kissed cane because i 'm human . and i 'm the one who 's dying inside of loneliness . you did that . you did it . michael : we need to end this . lauren : oh . michael : divorce me ! lauren : [ gasps ] avery : you enjoying yourself , joe ? joe : yeah , i 'm not sure . avery : oh , is it the wine ? no , wait . it 's my outfit , is n't it ? this is hardly -- hardly the clothes for seduction , is n't it ? i 'm gon na go to my bedroom and change . joe : i do n't need you -- avery : no , that 's right . you do n't need clothes at all , do you ? you just want me naked . that 's fine . you want me naked , like you always do . come on ! joe : i do n't want you to -- avery : we gon na be in the bedroom ? no , let 's -- let 's do it here . here , right on the sofa . get down , 'cause that 's what you want , right ? you want me all willing and wanting you . joe : avery , no -- avery : any second now , joe , i 'm gon na remember . joe : avery ! avery : what ? ! i 'm not doing it right ? ! joe : stop it ! damn you ! avery : [ gasps ] joe : damn you . i give you everything . this is how you repay me ? ! avery : let go of me ! joe : get back here ! avery : let go ! [ slap ] aah ! avery : [ gasps ] joe : i want you to want me . i still love you , avery . avery : get out ! now ! avery : all those years , i blamed myself for what happened between us . [ crying ] but it was you . any guilt that i have felt is gone . any pity i had for you -- i do n't give a damn anymore . now , get out of my house . joe : avery , let 's talk about this . avery : thinking that i would make love to you after you lied and manipulated me -- joe : i never meant to hurt you . avery : but you did hurt me ! you hurt me . and -- oh , my god -- the lies , what they 've cost me ! [ sobs ] and the fantasy that you would think that i would fall back in love with you ! what is wrong with you ? never ! joe : anything you want me to say . avery : i want you to say , `` i 'm leaving `` ! joe : avery -- avery : and i want you to collect your things and walk out of here , 'cause , yes , you can walk ! get out ! [ crying ] get out ! ... of my house . joe : i may have made a mistake here tonight . but i was n't the only one . avery : [ gasping ] [ sobbing ] lauren : i 'm so glad i found you . cane : lauren , i do n't want to talk to you right now . lauren : no , michael -- cane : i ca n't be around you . lauren : michael was in the park . [ whispering ] he saw us kiss . cane : [ sighs ] god , no . oh , no . okay . all right . okay . i 'm gon na go and tell lily what happened before michael does . that 's what i 'm gon na do . okay . lily : hi . um , i was looking for lauren , but , actually , i 'm glad i ran into you . i heard that you asked lauren for a divorce ? michael : uh ... yeah , that 's right . [ chuckles ] allergies . lily : [ chuckles ] um ... i really think that you should reconsider . look , i know i do n't know the details of your issues . i get that . but i do know ... that lauren loves you very much . michael : you 're right . that 's none of your business ... any more than your problems with cane are my business . lily : [ chuckles ] i 'm sorry . what do you mean by my problems with cane ? michael : never mind . lily : no , i - i - i want to know . did lauren say something to you ? michael : i 'm not the one you should be talking to about this . excuse me . [ door opens , shuts ] kevin : are you gon na give me an answer ? mariah : about what ? kevin : would you have actually left without giving me another thought ? mariah : mm , i would 've thought about you . kevin : well , that 's something , i guess . mariah : and i would 've missed you . kevin : yeah ? mariah : and i probably would 've been pretty miserable thinking that i could never see you again . kevin : but you would 've gone anyway . mariah : well , now we do n't know , because i 'm here . [ cell phones chime ] paul 's holding a press conference . paul : thank you all for coming . the reason for this press conference is really pretty straightforward . the murder investigation of austin travers and officer courtney sloane is going to be reopened . we have discovered some new information . and the presumptive killer , tobias gray , is , in fact , a third victim . and the new information points us to another perpetrator . are there any questions ? is n't that what you said about sharon newman ? paul : well , if you know anything about investigation , it takes a while to sift through the evidence . and this particular killer is very adept at framing other suspects . why should the public believe you got it right now ? paul : we have recovered a tablet belonging to austin travers , on which he has backups of all his computer files . kevin : austin did n't have a tablet . there was no backup . paul : and this tablet is at an undisclosed location , being analyzed . that 's all i have to say right now . kevin : [ scoffs ] paul : thank you . kevin : son of a ... mariah : what ? kevin : paul is using the power of the press , getting them to spread a lie that 'll put pressure on the killer and lure him out into the open . [ chuckles ] abby : mom , why do n't you just admit that you 're more upset about ben than you -- ashley : i 'm not upset ! abby : no , you are yelling . ashley : because he does n't have the right to -- to be prying into my personal information , all right ? abby : just admit that you care about ben . stitch : abby , will you please just stop ? abby : no , i 'm not gon na stop until -- ashley : both of you just stop . please , i just need you to stop ! stop . abby : mom ? mom ? stitch : ashley . abby : mom ? stitch : ashley . hey . hey ! ashley . [ next_on ] stitch : ashley had a seizure , and then she left the hospital without telling anyone . i 'm not leaving here until you tell me why . | at home , joe wants avery to make love to him but she does n't know what to think of his proposition . lily calls cane and apologizes for her actions and asks him to call her . in the park , cane kisses lauren and when they pull apart , lauren asks him where that came from . unbeknownst to them , someone is watching from the bushes . at the underground , ben blasts kevin for his actions in wanting to get his friends involved in an interview to possibly lure out the killer . abby thinks of another way to help to lure out the killer . in his office at the police department , paul and mark wonder if kevin is still cyber- sleuthing . mark fills paul in that the young people were asked for an interview . abby tells kevin to hack into the police computer where the message originated . kevin tells her that he hacked into the police computer and was suspended from his job . after they leave , mariah asks kevin to help her from being exposed as the one who sent the message but kevin refuses to help her . mariah suggests that they run . in the lab at jabot , ashley asks michael to help her to get her affairs in order . after michael leaves , ashley takes another one of her pills . abby and ben come into the lab and discuss the post on gc buzz . ashley comes out and asks about the post . ashley feels funny and almost faints which alarms both ben and abby . at crimson lights , michael sits at a table and remembers lauren kissing cane . lauren walks in and michael asks if she signed the divorce papers . after talking a few moments , michael tells her to let them discuss what she has done . lauren is puzzled . at the athletic club , lily apologizes to cane for her actions and for being so jealous of his attention to lauren . avery tells joe to stop trying to recapture their past but then she becomes angry and agrees to make love to him . | <s>[INST] avery : what do you want ? joe : i want you to make love to me . avery : after you just threatened me ? joe : it was n't exactly a threat . avery : if you go to the police and tell them i deliberately pushed you off that balcony , i could be disbarred . i could go to prison . joe : your choice . make love to me , avery . i 'm asking you . avery : you 're blackmailing me . joe : we were happy together . what we shared -- you know it was good . give us that chance . avery : and if i do ? joe : you 'll feel what you once felt for me . lily : cane , can you please just call me back or at least come back to the club so we can talk ? just do n't ignore my messages , okay ? i just -- i want to apologize to you . i was just being ... paranoid . and -- [ sighs ] of course i know there 's nothing going on between you and lauren . just call me . lauren : where did that come from ? paul : all right . thank you . uh , no . we really appreciate the help . right - o. bye - bye . harding : fbi ? paul : yeah . with their resources , we should be able to pinpoint who -- who posted that message . harding : yeah , that message . `` it was n't tobias catch me if you can , or watch me get away with murder . `` i -- you know , chief , the killer has been so careful up until now . why -- why would he go take a risk like that ? paul : well , you 're right . it is a higher probability that it is a hoax . harding : exactly . you know , if that 's the case , then why are we wasting the money and the manpower ? paul : because even though the post may be fake , the poster might be able to lead us to the real killer . mariah : come on . kevin : hey , you need to calm down . mariah : how am i supposed to calm down ? i panic every time somebody walks through the door ? [ sighs ] what if they come after me , kevin ? i 'm gon na be arrested for posting that bogus message , supposedly from the killer of austin and courtney . kevin : and tobias . mariah : and if the cops do n't come after me , the killer will . stitch : hey ! abby told me some tv show wants to interview everybody about the murders . kevin : yeah . it 's a good idea . stitch : what , going public ? putting your names and faces out there ? kevin : letting people know tobias did n't kill our friends ? stitch : puts a target on your backs . look . what you do is your business , kevin . but trying to convince abby into giving an interview , that 's -- mariah : are you gon na do it ? abby : well , i -- kevin : come on , abby ! you did n't exactly say no before . you know it 's a good idea . abby : because i do n't -- stitch : okay , i 'll say it for her . no . no way is abby gon na parade herself in front of the camera as bait for the killer , especially when he 's getting so bold that he 's taunting the police . abby : ben , thank you for standing up for me , but i can speak for myself . mariah : so you 're gon na do it ! abby : no . mariah : oh , my god . why does it feel like kevin and i are the only people that care about austin and courtney ? ! kevin : because we are . abby : that 's not fair . kevin : all right . look . you know what ? it does n't even matter , because the others already refused . and the deal for the interview was all of us or no one . we have to come up with another way to flush this guy out . abby : and i know how . paul : you know , if kevin still worked here , i 'm sure he 'd be searching the files of gc buzz , finding the source of that post . [ chuckles ] you know , the fact of the matter is , he 's probably doing that right now -- cyber - sleuthing on his own . harding : i do n't know , chief . i think maybe you got through to fish this time . paul : really ? harding : no , i 'm just trying to make you feel better . paul : [ chuckling ] yeah , that 's what i thought . harding : you know , i , uh -- i meant to tell you . a news outlet reached out to those kids , wanted them to talk about the murders . paul : why am i hearing about this now ? harding : b - because there was nothing to tell . looks like those kids wised up . they , uh -- they all refused to be interviewed . paul : well , maybe it 's time i remind the department how i feel about that . no one is to give interviews or comments of any kind unless they want to lose their badges . harding : i 'll spread the word . but it 's gon na be easy to keep a lid on this thing , because we have no leads on this perp , no nothing . [ sighs ] paul : so why is that , harding ? how does this guy manage to stay one step ahead of us ? abby : i almost hate to suggest this . mariah : oh , yes . we know . you 're terrified of the spotlight . what is it ? abby : kevin , ca n't you use your techno - magic and hack into the computer , find out who posted that `` catch me `` message ? and then we know the identity of the person . kevin : uh , no . i ca n't do that . abby : why not ? stitch : yeah , you 're usually pretty quick to jump on this kind of stuff . kevin : uh , well , i got suspended from the department , and i ca n't go near police computers . abby : why were you suspended ? because you were using police property to work on the case on your own . hmm . and you got caught . way to go , kevin . that was real smart . kevin : oh , abby , thank you for your compassion . abby : i just meant that -- stitch : all right . well , however it went down , i 'm just glad it did . mariah : oh , so you 're glad that kevin lost his job . stitch : no , but i 'm not exactly disappointed in you being forced to stay out of the investigation . look . let me ask you something . with all the warnings you 've had , why do you continue to put your friends in jeopardy ? why wo n't you just back off ? kevin : i 'm trying to protect my friends from someone who thinks he has a motive to come after us . abby : yes , it 's scary . but what can we do ? stitch : staying out of the spotlight will keep you safe . abby : okay , and just text immediately if the killer does anything creepy ? stitch : we need to get back to the office , right ? abby : lead the way . kevin : that guy is ... he 's such a pain . but at least he 's got abby 's back . mariah : like you 've got mine . kevin : yeah . absolutely . mariah : amazing . so you 're gon na help cover my tracks on gc buzz so nobody finds out it was me , right ? kevin : sorry , no . i can not do that . cane : lauren , i did n't mean to do that to you . lauren : i did n't mean to do that , either . cane : that should n't have happened . lauren : i was emotional about michael . you were upset about things with lily . cane : it 's not gon na happen again between us , all right ? lauren : no , never . yes ! michael : so , why did you ask me here ? ashley : i spoke to jack . he wants me to be the executor of his estate . michael : well , that has n't been finalized yet . but you 're correct . ashley : yeah , so , i have some questions about property disbursement , actually . michael : i ca n't answer those questions for you . jack is my client . if you want information about how jack has structured his estate -- ashley : michael , i 'm not asking you to betray my brother 's confidence . do n't worry . michael : uh , why am i here ? ashley : wills . well , more specifically , my will . since my brother 's getting his affairs in order , it just inspired me to do the same . michael : it 's always a good idea . given my own recent experience , i highly recommend it . ashley : how are you ? michael : fine , fine . a - and you 're wise to be prepared . you never know what can happen . ashley : right . so , i guess i want to just review my estate and maybe revise the will somewhat . michael : you can give my office a call . i 'll have my assistant check my calendar . ashley : ca n't we just do it now ? i can access all the data we need . michael : ohh , now 's not good for me . we 'd have to block out a couple hours anyway . ashley : i 'd rather do it sooner than later . michael : that would be best . ashley : thank you so much . michael : sure . ashley : thanks for coming all the way over . abby : it 's good that summer and kyle and fen are n't doing the interview . but i get this feeling that kevin 's holding something back . stitch : yeah . knowing him , he 's probably busy right now trying to track the killer through that message on gc buzz . abby : yeah . ashley : what are you saying ? the killer made another threat ? then that means it was n't tobias . abby : um , the killer might still be out there . ashley : what -- you said he posted something on gc buzz ? stitch : ashley , try not to worry . the police are on this . ashley : `` catch me if you can , or watch me get away with murder . `` this w -- this was posted last night . stitch : yeah , i - it -- it was posted hours ago , which means by now the cops -- ashley : that means he could still be after you . why did n't you let me know ? abby : i did n't want to worry you . ashley : i am your mother . if something 's going on with you , i have a right to know what 's happening . stitch : ashley , i 'm gon na do everything i can to keep abby safe . ashley : but what if you ca n't keep her safe ? ! abby : mom ? are you okay ? stitch : ashley , hey . ashley : i - i -- yes . yes , i ... stitch : hey . lauren : michael ? are you all right ? michael : oh , well , uh , actually , i was just thinking about you . lauren : you were ? michael : i hope you 've reconsidered signing the divorce papers . lauren : no . i 'm not gon na sign them . michael : we already live apart . there 's not really much -- lauren : i will contest the divorce if you proceed . michael : it would be so much easier if you did n't . lauren : when on earth did we ever do easy ? nothing has ever been easy for us . how many obstacles have we overcome ? and we 've always won . we 've held it together , and we have loved each other more every single day . michael : well , we have n't actually faced anything like this before . lauren : this is just prostate cancer . michael : `` just `` prostate cancer . lauren : i know you 're scared . and that 's why you 're pushing me away . i 'm scared , too . but i 'm not running . michael : i 'm letting you go . lauren : no . we built a marriage and a family . and i will not let you give up on that . and i 'm not going to , either , no matter how many ways you try to convince me to . michael : [ chuckles ] if everything i 've done has n't told you that this is over , maybe we should take a look at what you 've done . lauren : i have no idea what you 're talking about . michael : do n't you ? cane : [ sighs ] lily : hey . i - i 've been looking for you . cane : why ? lily : did you hear my messages , or ... ? cane : no . no , i did n't hear your messages . lily : it 's fine . it 's fine . i just ... i wanted to apologize to you . i was being petty and jealous . and , of course , lauren just needed a friend , and you were there for her . and i should 've believed you . and i do believe you . i do . is lauren okay ?

oscar : no , no , this is n't deacon . it 's about me and you . i am head over heels for you . bridget : i feel the same way about you . oh , god -- okay . i promised myself i would n't do this again . oscar : do what , get married ? bridget : no , jump into something so quickly . no matter how right it feels . oscar : there it is . you just listen to your heart . i mean , 'cause that 's i what its there for . and it 's telling you that -- you 've found something good . i swear i will be good for you . bridget : i do n't doubt that . oscar : please , take that ring , and take all the time you want . i 'd just feel a lot better knowing it 's on your finger . sally : obviously , you do n't think i have any good reason to resent brooke ?

do n't give up yet , captain . your ship may still come in . ] stephanie : if you 're so certain that this is ridge 's baby , why are you working so hard to convince me that it is ? brooke : i 'm not . i want to ask you a favor . stephanie : you want me to forgive you . brooke : i want you to accept what happened and put it behind you , for ridge 's sake . stephanie : have you talked to ridge lately ? brooke : we were just together . stephanie : and he did n't say anything ? brooke : nothing -- what about ? stephanie : oh , you know , just that it 's a very difficult time for the family . brooke : oh , you 're talking about eric and the shooting . stephanie : the accident . brooke : of course . stephanie : look , brooke , its put an enormous strain on everyone , but especially bridget . eric is really concerned that her feelings for deacon are more than just sympathy . brooke : what are you talking about ? stephanie : well , he 's worried that she has this sense of obligation towards deacon . you know , that she feels that she 's the one that has to get him back up on his feet and make up for everything that happened . brooke : well , that 's bridget . she 's very helpful . stephanie : no , no , he 's worried that it goes beyond that . he thinks that -- he thinks deacon 's falling in love with her all over again . and apparently , he 's been very open in his feelings . brooke : well , bridget would never be vulnerable to him . i mean , she 's with ozzy , they 're seeing each other . stephanie : yes , they are . brooke : so , what 's the problem ? stephanie : i do n't know . let 's just hope that he can make her forget all about her ex - husband . bridget : you 're not afraid at all ? oscar : of what ? spending the rest of my life with you ? why should i be ? bridget : ozzy , it 's not that easy . oscar : yeah , it is . bridget : so confident . oscar : hey , that 's one of the things you love about me , right ? bridget : you 're right . i do , ozzy . i love you . god , you know , i 've made so many mistakes . but when i 'm with you -- i just feel like i can trust my heart again . oscar : you can . i will not let you down . bridget : this is a really , really big step . oscar : yeah , it is . but you know what ? i 'm right here to take it with you . i love you . i do , and there 's not a doubt in my mind that i would be the luckiest man in the world if i could have you as my wife . bridget : i 'm sorry , i ca n't stop crying . i just -- i ca n't believe this is happening . oscar : well , it is . i mean , we 've both had some pretty hard knocks , you know , but i think we can get through it together , you know , rise above it and move on . and start what i think would be an amazing life . bridget : you think so , huh ? oscar : yeah , i know so . bridget : where 's that ring ? oscar : hmm . bridget : hmm . oscar : i might have lost it . oh . brooke : oh . oscar : yeah ? bridget : yeah . sally : keep your eye on the prize , sailor . you know something , i have been acquainted with ridge and brooke for a lot of years . and you 're the first man i 've ever seen that could actually turn her head . i think you two would be great together . nick : you 're a funny lady , you know that ?

sally : i 'm can be your friend too , captain . nick : i 'll pretty much decide that . sally : nah , i 'm serious . i think that -- you 're going to make a wonderful father . nick : you know something i do n't ? sally : maybe . all of that worldly wisdom and sophistication will make that a very lucky child . nick : maybe some day . sally : maybe sooner than you think . bridget : marriage . wow . oscar : after an engagement . bridget : you know , this is the best part . this is the part where we -- we get to really know each other . you know , explore each other . what we like . what drives us crazy . oscar : yeah , and i got ta get my job goin ' . get my life back on track , so i can be a man you can be proud of . you know , um -- as for the exploring part , we can get that started any time you want . bridget : oh , right , yes . you 've been really patient about that , and trust me , i want to be with you too . i really do . you 're gon na hate this . um -- i want to wait until we get married . oscar : hmm . you do ? bridget : i know , i know , i know , it 's just it 's so -- it 's so easy to get caught up in feeling good . ozzy , sex complicates things . when i walk down that aisle , i just -- i want to be so sure that i 'm doing it for the right reasons . so you want your ring back now ? oscar : well , you drive a hard bargain , lady . bridget : i know what i want . oscar : yeah ? bridget : yeah . ozzy , you are so special and so amazing . when i 'm with you , i feel safe , totally at peace , totally happy . oscar : yeah ?

brooke : this is pointless . stephanie : no , it is n't ! brooke : i 'm pregnant with ridge 's child . stephanie : but if by some quirk of fate it turns out to be nick 's -- brooke : why are you doing this ? stephanie : look , i 'm not trying to upset you . honestly , i 'm not . i just want you to consider the possibility . brooke : nick is not the father ! stephanie : and if , by some chance , the tests prove that he is ? would it be so bad ? i mean , he is good looking , and he 's charming . brooke : stephanie , he is not the man that i 'm in love with . you can wish all you want . i 'm sorry , it 's not going to happen . nick : you just do n't give up , do you ? sally : no , not when something is this important . and i know you . i know your stomach is all tied up in knots waiting for the results of that paternity test . nick : i 'm a sailor , knots are my specialty . sally : well , i 'm nothing but a poor woman who 's lost everything . but i do know that everything can change on a dime . bull 's - eye . you better get used to the idea of being a father , captain payne . because tomorrow , my dart is gon na hit a bulls - eye . | brooke asked for a few minutes of stephanie 's time . they discussed the baby and eric 's concern for bridget and deacon . sally continued her lessons with the computer hacker . nick walked in on the meeting . he and sally talked about brooke . sally advised him not to give up on the baby . oz tried to convince bridget that the proposal was not because of deacon . she does n't want to jump into anything too quickly . bridget told oz she loved him . bridget accepted the ring . bridget told oz she did n't want to sleep with him until they are married . | <s>[INST] stephanie : but being a clairvoyant is not one of them . brooke : i never said i was a clairvoyant , but i do know this child is ridge 's . stephanie : why , because you really , really , really want it to be that way ?

edmund : yes , i do . cassie : so why do n't you just wrap me in cotton wool and stick me in your pocket , if you 're so worried about my well - being ? edmund : i wish i could . i 've thought about it . cassie , you know there 's not anything i would n't do to keep you safe . jonathan : eddie hung up on you , huh ? what was that about ? reva : he 's trying to keep me away from my own sister . lizzie : you have no idea what you 've done . coop : lizzie , what are you talking about ? lizzie : oh , my gosh , it 's all back . it 's all back now . coop : what ? what is back ? lizzie : i 'm nothing like him . i 'm nothing at all like him . i am not crazy . beth : i hope you 're proud of yourself . and you . i helped you . i lied to get you out of jail , and this is how you repay me ? harley : beth , i hate this . please . it seems like all her life lizzie has suffered through one thing after another . beth : so , what ? this is just more of the same for her ? is that it ? harley : i do n't want to add to her problems . beth : then don't . do you remember what you said to me when you tracked me down in that spa ? you admitted that you did n't know whether you had killed phillip or not . harley : yes , i remember . beth : and you swore that you would find out the truth about what happened that night , even if it meant you were guilty . harley : i still feel that way , beth . harley : yeah ? well , you 're letting him pin the child that you well know has been through so much already . oh , sure , she is the perfect target . pin it on her . it 's a brilliant strategy . you might even get off . q i just hope you can live with yourself when you do . alan : what the hell does gus have on elizabeth ? jeffrey : i do n't know , alan . i 'm working on it . alan : well , that 's not good enough , because he is torturing my granddaughter . now , whatever he 's got on her , i want you to find out what it is and defuse it , because i told you ... jeffrey : careful , alan . you do n't want to go back to jail , do you ? what have you got ? assistant d.a . : i have a friend at the syntec lab in chicago . they ran dna tests for someone named bradshaw . he hinted that they were for this case . thought you might be interested . bailiff : all rise . judge ellis : let 's continue . if you 're up to it , ms . spaulding . jonathan : where are you going ? reva : i do n't know . nowhere . anywhere . jonathan : sounds like a plan . reva : i just need to think . jonathan : hey , look , this is why i did n't want to tell you about the fire stuff , because i knew what it would do to you . reva : i wanted the truth , whatever it is . jonathan : but you do n't believe me or my source , do you ? reva : i know that you told me what you know , and i 'm glad you came to me instead of cassie or edmund . jonathan : all right , look . i know you 're in a rough spot right now , but i really do n't want this guy coming after me again , and i definitely do n't want him coming after you . reva : you 're really scared . jonathan : me ? scared ? reva : well , whether this story about the fire turns out to be true or not , i still do n't know if i can say anything to cassie . jonathan : are you kidding me ? reva : no , i 'm not kidding , because it might not change anything . she 's forgiven him before , and why would n't she forgive him this time ? you know what ? forgive him or not , it does n't matter , because once i tell her , there 's a good chance i 'll lose my sister . ( quiet knocking at door ) dinah : i thought she 'd never leave . do n't you check your messages ? jonathan : nice to see you , too . dinah : look , cassie is on her way for the in vitro parade , okay , and if she 's carrying edmund 's baby , that wo n't be a cool thing ... jonathan : relax . it wo n't happen . dinah : what ? jonathan : i took care of it . dinah : really ? jonathan : mm - hmm . dinah : how did you do that ? jonathan : the same way that you did . i gave you up . edmund : do you remember that fertility clinic we found in palm springs when we were doing our research ? cassie : the parkington clinic ? edmund : mm - hmm . cassie : yeah . it was amazing . edmund : well , i thought we could go there for the retrieval , and then stay until they 're ready for us to transfer . cassie : you want to switch clinics for the ivf ? why ? edmund : well , it 's a state- of - the - art medical facility . come on . and it 's got beautiful desert air in a virtual spa setting , beautiful scenery , utter tranquillity . cassie : it 's 1,500 miles away . i do n't want to switch doctors now . i mean , what 's the point ? edmund : well , the point is you need a stress - free environment , which this is not . cassie : because of reva and jonathan . edmund : you need to be relaxed , cassie , and if you just give me a quick `` yes , `` i can go make all the arrangements . cassie : i want to stay here . i do . i want to stay here with my doctor that i trust , and i want you by my side . that 's ... that 'll make me happy . that 's what i want . r that 's all . except one other thing , and that would be food , because i 'm really , really hungry , so i 'm going to make us some dinner . okay ? edmund : no , don't . do n't do that . do n't do that . i 'll just nip right out and grab us something to eat . cassie : oh , great . make yourself useful . edmund : useful ? excuse me , your highness , nothing happens in the baby department without my contribution . cassie : oh . well , okay . well , then you better get your rest . go . hurry back , hot - shot . edmund : okay . sandy : okay , that was another win . you could have at least let me win one game . tammy : you know i do n't do that . sandy : so competitive . tammy : well , i get it from my mom . sandy : how is cassie ? tammy : she was great when i saw her earlier . she and edmund are moving forward on `` project baby . `` sandy : project baby . ooh . how do you feel about that ? tammy : you know , i am excited when anything remotely normal happens in my family . i think a new baby would be great . and it 's cute to see edmund wanting it so badly . sandy : kind of crazy , though , right ? if you think about where he and your mom started ? tammy : people change . sandy : and i 'm a big fan of second chances . here 's to that . i do n't know where i 'd be if your family had n't given me one . you think all people are capable of change ? someone like a lizzie or ... tammy : jonathan ? sandy : yeah . tammy : sometimes i think the change happens when someone comes along who makes you want to be better for them . i guess that could happen for lizzie or jonathan . sandy : but you do n't see it in the stars ? tammy : hey , i know . we should fix them up . sandy : oh , no . count me out . i have a certain affection for lizzie , so ... tammy : she ran you over . sandy : oh , yeah , that . well , it happens . besides , i ... i do n't have to pretend to be your cousin anymore now . i can be ... tammy : what ? sandy : i can be your roommate . see ? and that would n't have happened without lizzie and my second chance . so i think lizzie deserves a second chance , just like all the rest of us . gus : lizzie , before we ... please remember that phillip spaulding was my brother also , okay ? so you and i , we 're family , and believe me , the last thing that i ... the last thing that i want to ... lizzie : i know what you want , gus . gus : lizzie , can you please tell the court exactly , in your own words , what happened the night of the murder ? lizzie : you already know what happened . the whole town knows what happened . gus : but we would like to know what you felt that night . lizzie : why does it matter what i felt ? what happened , happened . gus : because we 'd like to all put ourselves in your position . we 'd all like to know what you were feeling in your head from moment to moment . can you remember that ? q lizzie : i do n't want to remember . i tried hard enough to forget it . gus : but you ca n't forget it , can you ? lizzie : why are you making me relive this ? gus : because we all need to know the truth , lizzie , and you know what the truth is , do n't you ? lizzie : it was horrible . i hate that night , everything about it . gus : it was horrible because he bullied you . it was horrible because he pushed you too far . is n't that right ? lizzie : yes . gus : and what did he do to you ? lizzie : see , that 's the thing . he was so nice . he could be so sweet , but ... gus : but what ? tell me . lizzie : the last night , it was just , like , he was a monster , and i hated him so much . i had to make him go away . tammy : i ca n't believe you 're dropping me off and going back to the office . sandy : well , you 're more than welcome to come back and phone , file , and fax with me . tammy : i clocked out , my friend . besides , i want to get to the gym before it closes . sandy : you 're saying i could have had a chance to have the place to myself ? tammy : this was fun . sandy : thank you for your valuable assistance . tammy : no problem . we make a good team . bartender : hey , mrs . lewis . long time no see . how 's everything with you ? reva : double bourbon on the rocks . does that answer your question ? bartender : loud and clear . reva : thanks . you know , craig ? come here . let me ask you something . if you heard something -- and i 'm |ú sure you 've encountered this in your line of work -- but if you heard something that could possibly break up a marriage , would you tell the people that it would affect , or would you sit on it ? bartender : depends on who i heard it from . reva : ( laughs ) in this case , the person is a pathological liar . but that does n't necessarily mean it is n't true , although maybe it does , and i just want it to be the truth . and you know what ? if i ask for another drink , do n't give it to me because my head is already spinning trying to figure out which way to go with this one . bartender : sounds like a tough call . reva : yeah . and i just hope i make the right one when the time comes . edmund : bourbon on the rocks , please . make it a double . just be glad you 're married to a man who 's about to take every aspect of your life under control for the time being , whether you like it or not . cassie : he 's just overprotective . that 's all . rj : i did n't break it , mommy . cassie : oh . i know that , honey . i know . come here . this is edmund 's , and he 's going to have to fix it , just like he had to fix your truck when the wheels broke off , remember ? you know that edmund would do absolutely anything to protect us ? you , me , tammy , and will ? because he loves us so much , and we love him , right ? rj : yeah . cassie : yeah . well , you know how we have so much love in this house that there seems to be a lot left over , so we thought that we would give some to a new baby . rj : you 're going to have a baby , mommy ? cassie : well , not yet , but , you know , we 're working on it , and we 're hoping that we can bring you a little baby sister or a baby brother soon . would n't that be nice ? yeah . this is such a wonderful time , rj . it 's exciting , is n't it ? xd dinah : you told reva that the fire story came from me ? jonathan : yeah . she figured it out . i could n't lie to my own mother . dinah : your mother is going to kill me , you know that ? jonathan : just like uncle eddie wanted to kill me after you let it slip that i spent the night before his wedding with his bride - to - be ? dinah : jonathan , i told edmund that cassie was betraying him so that he could see it , that he could see that she was trying to cover up . jonathan : just stop . look , i 'm already at the top of my uncle 's hit list because of what i did to tammy . you telling him that does n't help me any . he finds out , and he forgives cassie anyway . dinah : yeah , i know that , and that 's disgusting . jonathan : yeah , well , they 'd be on their way to the baby- making factory tomorrow if it was n't for moi stepping in . dinah : so you think that you stopped them . jonathan : a little show of gratitude would be nice . i tell reva ; reva thinks about it , decides to do the right thing ; she tells cassie ; cassie flips ; and -- boom -- the winslows are tanked . dinah : what if reva does n't believe it ? or does n't tell cassie ? jonathan : no , reva might not believe you , but she trusts me a little bit . plus , she already thinks edmund 's a nuclear meltdown waiting to happen , which he may be . dinah : cassie still has baby stuff scheduled for tomorrow . jonathan : do n't worry . reva wo n't let her sis have babies with a guy like that . dinah : you 're awfully confident . jonathan : in everything i do . do n't you love that about a guy ? gus : you hated him . gus : you hated him . you hated him , lizzie , but that was not your fault , right ? he made you hate him . and then there was the gun . beth : leave her alone ! judge ellis : order . please sit down . beth : why are n't you doing something to stop this ? judge ellis : i said sit down , or you will be removed from this courtroom . mr. o'neill ? do you wish to ask for a postponement ? jeffrey : no , your honor . the state agrees with mr . aitoro that it 's time that we get to the truth . alan : no . judge ellis : spectators will refrain from speaking . i wo n't say it again . continue , mr . aitoro . lizzie : ( sobs ) gus : lizzie , everybody has a breaking point . i mean , everybody in this room understands that , believe me . but nobody is here to blame you or to judge you for doing what you thought you had to do . we just need to know what that was . we just need to know , did you pick up that gun ? look , i know that this is very , very painful , okay ? just tell me what happened . lizzie : i did it . gus : did what ? you picked up the gun ? lizzie : ( sobs ) i picked up the gun , and i shot him . is that what you want to hear ? i killed him ! ( sobbing ) next , on `` guiding light `` ... edmund : because if you start a fire , i can promise you , cassie is not the one who 's going to end up being burned . dinah : it is so perfect . cassie is never going to forgive edmund for setting the fire . jonathan : or for trying to murder jeffrey o'neill . | jonathan tells reva that edmund started the fire in cassie 's barn . edmund and cassie argue over edmund 's growing obsession with jonathan . dinah tells jonathan that he needs to do something to break up edmund and cassie quick because their fertility appointment is fastly approaching . tammy and sandy share a romantic dinner . ross finds out that dinah is involved romantically with jonathan . lizzie faints on the witness stand . coop tells lizzie that he knows about the bloody shard of glass . gus gets lizzie to confess to the murder . jeffrey finds out that someone ran a dna test on a piece of evidence and suspects it was coop . | <s>[INST] cassie : i ca n't do this . i 'm sorry . i ca n't do this . i have to go to the fertility clinic tomorrow , edmund . edmund : cassie , that does n't mean that ... cassie : there 's so many things that i 've got to take care of . the retrieval is tomorrow . tomorrow . so i 'm going to have to make other arrangements for the kids , i 'm going to have to call the beacon , and i 'm going to have to reschedule everything , and then i have so many errands to run ... and the recycling . edmund : cassie , that does n't mean we can't ... cassie : do you know the recycling tomorrow is due ? edmund : look , cassie , wait . here , let me take that for you . cassie : i got it . just open the door . just get the door . edmund : cassie , the doctor said ... cassie : oh , gosh . edmund : ... you need to avoid stress and fatigue , so i do n't think you ... there are very few things in the world that matter more to me than this . and i want you to have it . he was here . cassie : who ? edmund : jonathan . i reach out to him , and he spits in my face . jonathan : the word on the street is that aunt cassie 's barn almost burned down because of uncle edmund . reva : no . cassie and rj were almost killed in that fire . jonathan : yeah . reva : edmund started the fire ? but why ? jonathan : okay . whatever . reva : no . look , i know you hate edmund . you 've got every reason to . but to accuse him of something like that is insane . jonathan : look , i 'm just saying what i heard . reva : from who ? jonathan : somebody who saw the whole incident from spark to blaze . reva : but why ? why would he do that ? jonathan : well , jealousy eating at your guts can turn you into a monster , especially when you 're a monster to begin with . reva : jealousy . but who ... who was he jealous of ? jonathan : ( laughs ) dad 's stunt double . reva : jeffrey o'neill ? jonathan : mm - hmm . from what i heard , uncle edmund was really out to get that guy . reva : jeffrey was at the farm that day , and he was hurt . something fell on him . jonathan : or smacked into him . reva : what do you mean ? jonathan : well , i 'm not saying that uncle eddie set out to start the fire in the barn , but i am saying that he was looking to kill daddy 's double . dinah : of course . `` leave a message . `` jonathan ? dinah . hi . just got a call from my ob / gyn admirer corey , with this following news flash : cassie is headed to cedars tomorrow for the first step of in vitro fertilization , which means whatever you 've been doing to bust up cassie and edmund , it 's not enough . ross : dinah ? dinah : daddy . hi . ross : is something wrong ? dinah : no . i 'm just trying to wrap up an annoying little bit of business . but i want to go in and show the flag for harley , but you know what ? maybe i ought to take care of ... of this problem in person . ross : dinah ? what business could be more important than supporting an old friend when she needs it the most ? come on . let 's go in . judge ellis : order ! alan : this is outrageous , gus . you ca n't sacrifice your own niece with these lies . judge ellis : sit down immediately , or i will find you in contempt . harley : do you know what you 're doing ? alan : your honor , you 've got to do something . judge ellis : order , or i 'll find you in contempt . sit down , mr . spaulding . right now . jeffrey : mr. spaulding is right , your honor . the witness is not on trial here . gus : your honor , lizzie spaulding was at the scene of the crime the night her father was gunned down . i 'm simply trying to establish what and how much she knows about this murder . judge ellis : proceed , but tread carefully . is that understood ? gus : yes . judge ellis : good . gus : thank you . harley : gus . gus : i do n't care . lizzie , shortly before your father was killed , he abducted three of your siblings , did n't he ? james , zach , and emma , along with harley cooper 's other son , jude . is that right ? lizzie : daddy was n't himself . gus : he was n't himself .

before i kill him ? cassie : i was n't going to say that . hey , come on . edmund , do you think that i want to have a baby with a man who is a time bomb waiting to go off ? edmund : of course you do n't , cassie . of course . i 'm sorry . cassie : look , i love you . i love you , and i have complete faith in you . what , you do n't believe that ? edmund : cassie , i want to . i really do . but you found me about to smash the kid 's skull in . i mean , that had to be ... cassie : scary ? it was . but you know what was really scary ? it was the thought of jonathan getting to you and telling you his side of the story about what happened the night before our wedding . that scared me , edmund . but you know what ? that 's all behind us now . it 's in the past . and no one can hurt us anymore . jonathan : edmund smacks jeffrey with the shovel , jeffrey goes down , drops his lantern , fire starts . reva : if you want me to believe you , then you 're going to have to tell me where you got your information . jonathan : i 'm not at liberty to divulge ... reva : do you think this is a game ? my sister and my nephew were nearly killed in that fire . now , tell me what you know . jonathan : well , you should understand about protecting your sources . reva : it can only be one of two people . either jeffrey told you himself , or it was the person who rescued rj and told edmund that cassie was still in the barn . dinah . dinah marler . that 's who it was . am i right ? jonathan : you 're the investigative reporter . you should understand that i ca n't divulge those facts . reva : yeah , well , everyone knows that a good investigative reporter always checks the credibility of her sources , and in cassie 's case , dinah 's got none . jonathan : well , call me crazy , but i believe the story . reva : because you want to . jonathan : no , because it sounds right . dinah 's got this information that could blow up cassie 's relationship and she does n't use it . if she hates cassie so much , why ? reva : i do n't know . i do n't know what to think of any of this . jonathan : yeah , i was going to sit on it , too , but you know what ? a guy threatens your life , you start thinking maybe he 's better off not around . edmund has n't changed . he picked up a wife and loses some of the violence , but somebody threatens him , his temper blows and he 's ready to kill again , just like he used to . reva : but edmund dragged jeffrey out of the barn . jonathan : yeah , well maybe he had a touch of humanity , or ... you know , more likely , he wanted to cover his tracks so he did n't lose cassie and end up in the slammer . reva : i do n't buy this . jonathan : what ? reva : jeffrey would have done something . he would have pressed charges . jonathan : yeah , if he knew . he got clocked from behind . reva : i ca n't believe this . jonathan : you ca n't believe it , or you do n't want to believe it ?

tammy : food , sandy . sandy : oh . tammy : uh - huh . and i am not cooking . sandy : oh , you know what ? i can call towers , see if they can squeeze us in . tammy : no , no , that 's okay . i 'll go easy on you . sandy : that would be a first . tammy : look , i 'm just in the mood for something basic , okay ? but are we finished or what ? sandy : technically , no . tammy : come on , sandy . i am starving . it 's time to pay the price for all my valuable assistance . well ? think you can give me what i want ? cassie : edmund , everything is okay . you know , you 've got to let this go . edmund : that 's easier said than done , is n't it ? cassie : no , no . no , it 's not , because there are so many wonderful things for us to think about besides jonathan . we 're getting ready to have a baby . edmund : cassie , i have n't stopped thinking about that from the moment i found out it was even possible . cassie : me either . me either . and you said a few minutes ago on that couch how lucky you felt . well , i feel the same way . edmund : you know , if jonathan had just accepted ... cassie : you 've got to let this go , edmund . edmund : it was a mistake even trying to talk to him . cassie : no . it wasn't . edmund : cassie , the next time someone tries to threaten this family , i 'm going to handle it my own way . cassie : i do n't want anyone , above all jonathan , to make us so angry that we become obsessed with them , edmund . look at me . we are the most important thing , you and me and our family . edmund : that 's what i 'm trying to say . there is nothing more important than trying to protect it . cassie : well , then we 're going to have to go about this another way . you obviously could n't get through to jonathan . i think i know someone who can , maybe the only person who can . reva . jonathan : you 've been expecting something like this out of uncle eddie , have n't you ? you 've been waiting for it . reva : i wanted so much to believe in him , for cassie 's sake , but i guess somewhere deep in the back of my mind , i 've had my doubts . jonathan : well , now the doubts are in the front of your mind . reva : even if what you 're telling me is true -- and it 's still a huge `` if '' -- what can i do about it ? jonathan : you can tell cassie . reva : and then what ? jonathan : i do n't know . i mean , this is your call . but i honestly wonder if we 're looking at a one - time thing or the beginning of a pattern . ( telephone ringing ) oh , you might want to answer this one . reva : cassie . jonathan : perfect timing . reva : hello ? cassie : hi . it 's me . reva : hi . how are you ? cassie : i 'm good . i ... look , i know that things have n't been great between us , but i had to call you because ... well , i have some news for you . reva ? are you there ? reva : yeah , i 'm here . i 've got some news for you , too . coming up on `` guiding light `` ... jonathan : i took care of it . dinah : really ? jonathan : mm - hmm . dinah : how did you do that ? jonathan : the same way that you did . i gave you up . gus : because we all need to know the truth , lizzie , and you know what the truth is , do n't you ? lizzie : the last night , it was just like he was a monster , and i hated him so much . i had to make him go away . oprah : i 've waited 51 years to cassie : what is it ? reva : well , i should probably tell you this in person , but then maybe it ca n't wait . jonathan and i have been talking about some things that are very troubling . cassie : okay . what things ? reva : things about you and edmund . cassie : reva , i called you not because i wanted to get back into things , but i need your help , okay ? t ( not your criticism . reva : i 'm trying to help you . cassie : i find that hard to believe . reva : you 're not even listening to what i have to say , and you 're still getting defensive . cassie : of course i 'm defensive . q every time i turn around , i have to defend myself and edmund to you because of your son . reva : what about him ? he 's right here . ñi cassie : listen , reva , tomorrow is a big day for me , and the fact that you 're there with him is the ... edmund : reva , hang up . reva : edmund ? is cassie all right ? edmund : no , she 's not . she needs to remain stress - free , and you 're making that quite impossible . reva : put my sister back on the phone . edmund : say hello to josh for us . cassie : i ca n't believe you just did that . edmund : i should never have let you dial her number in thej first place . cassie : edmund , i needed to talk to my sister.5a edmund : cassie , you need to be stress - free right now . now , i apologize for being so abrupt with you and your sister , but from the moment you got on the phone with her , your stress level went from elevated to high , and that 's not good . cassie : yeah , okay . okay . edmund : cassie , just be happy you 're married to a man who is about to take every detail of your life -- at least for the time being -- under control , whether you like it or not . here . cassie : you really want a baby , do n't you ? edmund : yes , i do . cassie : so why do n't you just wrap me in cotton wool and stick me in your pocket , if you 're so worried about my well - being ? edmund : i wish i could . i 've thought about it . cassie , you know there 's not anything i would n't do to keep you safe . jonathan : eddie hung up on you , huh ? what was that about ? reva : he 's trying to keep me away from my own sister . lizzie : you have no idea what you 've done . coop : lizzie , what are you talking about ? lizzie : oh , my gosh , it 's all back . it 's all back now . coop : what ? what is back ? lizzie : i 'm nothing like him . i 'm nothing at all like him . i am not crazy . beth : i hope you 're proud of yourself . and you . i helped you . i lied to get you out of jail , and this is how you repay me ? harley : beth , i hate this . please . it seems like all her life lizzie has suffered through one thing after another . beth : so , what ? this is just more of the same for her ? is that it ? harley : i do n't want to add to her problems . beth : then don't . do you remember what you said to me when you tracked me down in that spa ? you admitted that you did n't know whether you had killed phillip or not . harley : yes , i remember . beth : and you swore that you would find out the truth about what happened that night , even if it meant you were guilty . harley : i still feel that way , beth . harley : yeah ? well , you 're letting him pin the child that you well know has been through so much already . oh , sure , she is the perfect target . pin it on her . it 's a brilliant strategy . you might even get off . q i just hope you can live with yourself when you do . alan : what the hell does gus have on elizabeth ? jeffrey : i do n't know , alan . i 'm working on it . alan : well , that 's not good enough , because he is torturing my granddaughter . now , whatever he 's got on her , i want you to find out what it is and defuse it , because i told you ... jeffrey : careful , alan . you do n't want to go back to jail , do you ? what have you got ? assistant d.a . : i have a friend at the syntec lab in chicago . they ran dna tests for someone named bradshaw . he hinted that they were for this case . thought you might be interested . bailiff : all rise . judge ellis : let 's continue . if you 're up to it , ms . spaulding . jonathan : where are you going ? reva : i do n't know . nowhere . anywhere . jonathan : sounds like a plan . reva : i just need to think . jonathan : hey , look , this is why i did n't want to tell you about the fire stuff , because i knew what it would do to you . reva : i wanted the truth , whatever it is . jonathan : but you do n't believe me or my source , do you ? reva : i know that you told me what you know , and i 'm glad you came to me instead of cassie or edmund . jonathan : all right , look . i know you 're in a rough spot right now , but i really do n't want this guy coming after me again , and i definitely do n't want him coming after you . reva : you 're really scared . jonathan : me ? scared ? reva : well , whether this story about the fire turns out to be true or not , i still do n't know if i can say anything to cassie . jonathan : are you kidding me ? reva : no , i 'm not kidding , because it might not change anything . she 's forgiven him before , and why would n't she forgive him this time ? you know what ? forgive him or not , it does n't matter , because once i tell her , there 's a good chance i 'll lose my sister . ( quiet knocking at door ) dinah : i thought she 'd never leave . do n't you check your messages ? jonathan : nice to see you , too . dinah : look , cassie is on her way for the in vitro parade , okay , and if she 's carrying edmund 's baby , that wo n't be a cool thing ... jonathan : relax . it wo n't happen . dinah : what ? jonathan : i took care of it . dinah : really ? jonathan : mm - hmm . dinah : how did you do that ? jonathan : the same way that you did . i gave you up . edmund : do you remember that fertility clinic we found in palm springs when we were doing our research ? cassie : the parkington clinic ? edmund : mm - hmm . cassie : yeah . it was amazing . edmund : well , i thought we could go there for the retrieval , and then stay until they 're ready for us to transfer . cassie : you want to switch clinics for the ivf ? why ? edmund : well , it 's a state- of - the - art medical facility . come on . and it 's got beautiful desert air in a virtual spa setting , beautiful scenery , utter tranquillity . cassie : it 's 1,500 miles away . i do n't want to switch doctors now . i mean , what 's the point ? edmund : well , the point is you need a stress - free environment , which this is not . cassie : because of reva and jonathan . edmund : you need to be relaxed , cassie , and if you just give me a quick `` yes , `` i can go make all the arrangements . cassie : i want to stay here . i do . i want to stay here with my doctor that i trust , and i want you by my side . that 's ... that 'll make me happy . that 's what i want . r that 's all . except one other thing , and that would be food , because i 'm really , really hungry , so i 'm going to make us some dinner . okay ? edmund : no , don't . do n't do that . do n't do that . i 'll just nip right out and grab us something to eat . cassie : oh , great . make yourself useful . edmund : useful ? excuse me , your highness , nothing happens in the baby department without my contribution . cassie : oh . well , okay . well , then you better get your rest . go . hurry back , hot - shot . edmund : okay . sandy : okay , that was another win . you could have at least let me win one game . tammy : you know i do n't do that . sandy : so competitive . tammy : well , i get it from my mom . sandy : how is cassie ? tammy : she was great when i saw her earlier . she and edmund are moving forward on `` project baby . `` sandy : project baby . ooh . how do you feel about that ? tammy : you know , i am excited when anything remotely normal happens in my family . i think a new baby would be great . and it 's cute to see edmund wanting it so badly . sandy : kind of crazy , though , right ? if you think about where he and your mom started ? tammy : people change . sandy : and i 'm a big fan of second chances . here 's to that . i do n't know where i 'd be if your family had n't given me one . you think all people are capable of change ? someone like a lizzie or ... tammy : jonathan ? sandy : yeah . tammy : sometimes i think the change happens when someone comes along who makes you want to be better for them . i guess that could happen for lizzie or jonathan . sandy : but you do n't see it in the stars ? tammy : hey , i know . we should fix them up . sandy : oh , no . count me out . i have a certain affection for lizzie , so ... tammy : she ran you over . sandy : oh , yeah , that . well , it happens . besides , i ... i do n't have to pretend to be your cousin anymore now . i can be ... tammy : what ? sandy : i can be your roommate . see ? and that would n't have happened without lizzie and my second chance . so i think lizzie deserves a second chance , just like all the rest of us . gus : lizzie , before we ... please remember that phillip spaulding was my brother also , okay ? so you and i , we 're family , and believe me , the last thing that i ... the last thing that i want to ... lizzie : i know what you want , gus . gus : lizzie , can you please tell the court exactly , in your own words , what happened the night of the murder ? lizzie : you already know what happened . the whole town knows what happened . gus : but we would like to know what you felt that night . lizzie : why does it matter what i felt ? what happened , happened . gus : because we 'd like to all put ourselves in your position . we 'd all like to know what you were feeling in your head from moment to moment . can you remember that ? q lizzie : i do n't want to remember . i tried hard enough to forget it . gus : but you ca n't forget it , can you ? lizzie : why are you making me relive this ? gus : because we all need to know the truth , lizzie , and you know what the truth is , do n't you ? lizzie : it was horrible . i hate that night , everything about it . gus : it was horrible because he bullied you . it was horrible because he pushed you too far . is n't that right ? lizzie : yes . gus : and what did he do to you ? lizzie : see , that 's the thing . he was so nice . he could be so sweet , but ... gus : but what ? tell me . lizzie : the last night , it was just , like , he was a monster , and i hated him so much . i had to make him go away . tammy : i ca n't believe you 're dropping me off and going back to the office . sandy : well , you 're more than welcome to come back and phone , file , and fax with me . tammy : i clocked out , my friend . besides , i want to get to the gym before it closes . sandy : you 're saying i could have had a chance to have the place to myself ? tammy : this was fun . sandy : thank you for your valuable assistance . tammy : no problem . we make a good team . bartender : hey , mrs . lewis . long time no see . how 's everything with you ? reva : double bourbon on the rocks . does that answer your question ? bartender : loud and clear . reva : thanks . you know , craig ? come here . let me ask you something . if you heard something -- and i 'm |ú sure you 've encountered this in your line of work -- but if you heard something that could possibly break up a marriage , would you tell the people that it would affect , or would you sit on it ? bartender : depends on who i heard it from . reva : ( laughs ) in this case , the person is a pathological liar . but that does n't necessarily mean it is n't true , although maybe it does , and i just want it to be the truth . and you know what ? if i ask for another drink , do n't give it to me because my head is already spinning trying to figure out which way to go with this one . bartender : sounds like a tough call . reva : yeah . and i just hope i make the right one when the time comes . edmund : bourbon on the rocks , please . make it a double . just be glad you 're married to a man who 's about to take every aspect of your life under control for the time being , whether you like it or not . cassie : he 's just overprotective . that 's all . rj : i did n't break it , mommy . cassie : oh . i know that , honey . i know . come here . this is edmund 's , and he 's going to have to fix it , just like he had to fix your truck when the wheels broke off , remember ? you know that edmund would do absolutely anything to protect us ? you , me , tammy , and will ? because he loves us so much , and we love him , right ? rj : yeah . cassie : yeah . well , you know how we have so much love in this house that there seems to be a lot left over , so we thought that we would give some to a new baby . rj : you 're going to have a baby , mommy ? cassie : well , not yet , but , you know , we 're working on it , and we 're hoping that we can bring you a little baby sister or a baby brother soon . would n't that be nice ? yeah . this is such a wonderful time , rj . it 's exciting , is n't it ? xd dinah : you told reva that the fire story came from me ? jonathan : yeah . she figured it out . i could n't lie to my own mother . dinah : your mother is going to kill me , you know that ? jonathan : just like uncle eddie wanted to kill me after you let it slip that i spent the night before his wedding with his bride - to - be ? dinah : jonathan , i told edmund that cassie was betraying him so that he could see it , that he could see that she was trying to cover up . jonathan : just stop . look , i 'm already at the top of my uncle 's hit list because of what i did to tammy . you telling him that does n't help me any . he finds out , and he forgives cassie anyway . dinah : yeah , i know that , and that 's disgusting . jonathan : yeah , well , they 'd be on their way to the baby- making factory tomorrow if it was n't for moi stepping in . dinah : so you think that you stopped them . jonathan : a little show of gratitude would be nice . i tell reva ; reva thinks about it , decides to do the right thing ; she tells cassie ; cassie flips ; and -- boom -- the winslows are tanked . dinah : what if reva does n't believe it ? or does n't tell cassie ? jonathan : no , reva might not believe you , but she trusts me a little bit . plus , she already thinks edmund 's a nuclear meltdown waiting to happen , which he may be . dinah : cassie still has baby stuff scheduled for tomorrow . jonathan : do n't worry . reva wo n't let her sis have babies with a guy like that . dinah : you 're awfully confident . jonathan : in everything i do . do n't you love that about a guy ? gus : you hated him . gus : you hated him . you hated him , lizzie , but that was not your fault , right ? he made you hate him . and then there was the gun . beth : leave her alone ! judge ellis : order . please sit down . beth : why are n't you doing something to stop this ? judge ellis : i said sit down , or you will be removed from this courtroom . mr. o'neill ? do you wish to ask for a postponement ? jeffrey : no , your honor . the state agrees with mr . aitoro that it 's time that we get to the truth . alan : no . judge ellis : spectators will refrain from speaking . i wo n't say it again . continue , mr . aitoro . lizzie : ( sobs ) gus : lizzie , everybody has a breaking point . i mean , everybody in this room understands that , believe me . but nobody is here to blame you or to judge you for doing what you thought you had to do . we just need to know what that was . we just need to know , did you pick up that gun ? look , i know that this is very , very painful , okay ? just tell me what happened . lizzie : i did it . gus : did what ? you picked up the gun ? lizzie : ( sobs ) i picked up the gun , and i shot him . is that what you want to hear ?
